she took 2,330 chicks from her incubators, leaving the small number of 140 

 unhatched. 



One incubator which came under the writer's observation, hatched 136 

 chicks with only four eggs left in the incubator. 



The event called together a large crowd of not only her admiring 

 friends, but a large number of curious and inquiring people, who were com- 

 ing and going the entire day, many coming hundreds of miles. All felt 

 amply repaid as it was a sight that will be witnessed but once in a lifetime. 



An enclosure of perhaps 16x20 feet on the lawn was literally covered 

 with the little wriggling, downy mortgage lifters. 



How few who witnessed the sight realized the amount of labor and 

 the tax on both brain and body. Mrs. Johnson has well earned for herself 

 the title of 'Iowa's Poultry Queen,' or perhaps America's Poultry Queen or 

 perhaps of the entire world. 



Not only is she a successful amateur hatcher but she raises a larger 

 per cent of what she hatches than ordinary poultry raisers. She certain" ■ 

 is an able person to give information on the poultry subject." 



These words coming from such a reliable source and from one so well 

 known in Durant will give added strength to the testimony hither to 

 published concerning Mrs. Johnson's discoveries in artificial incubation 

 and rearing incubator chicks. 



Mrs. Nienaber was more than pleased with what she saw and learned 

 during her visit with Mrs. Johnson and further declares that following the 

 latter's methods has proven of inestimible value in this season's work. —

Alexandria Va., August 14, 1906. 

 Mrs. D. C. Johnson, Maxwell, Iowa — Dear Madam: — In answer to 

 your letter of May 11, 1906, in which you also requested to "speak a good 

 word" for you if I obtained satisfactory results, will say truthfully that the 

 Compound has worked wonders. I have tried many things, but this beats 

 all. Mrs. Johnson, I should like to act as agent for this compound.

A Word to the Public 



Now, my friends, there is no use for me to say more. These testimonials 

 are self explanatory. If others can have good success with my Incubators, 

 Brooders, Brooder Attachments, Book and Compound, so can you. If you 

 contemplate buying an Incubator and Brooder let me (it you out. If you 

 already have an incubator, my Book and Compound would be a wonderful 

 help to you. Write me for particular.s and you will greatly oblige 



Your friend, 



Mrs. D. C. Johnson, Maxwell, Iowa.
