Scranton, Kansas, Nov. 

 Mr. E. R. Philo, Elmira, N. Y. 



Dear Sir: — Yours of October 26th on hand and beg to say 

 that I have raised all of the White Orpingtons so far. Their 

 average weight is 2! pounds each and not quite three months 

 old yet. Being a beginner it was quite interesting to watch 

 their development.

Marathon, Fla., Dec. 5, 1911. 

 E. R. Philo, Elmira, N. Y. 



Dear Sir: — The little one day old chicks I bought of you 

 are thriving, and all who see them remark about their thrifty, 

 healthy appearance. 



I do not expect to lose one of them from weakness or sickness. 

 I refused $20 for them last week.

 E. R. Philo, Elmira, N. Y. 



Dear Sir: — Your letter of the 20th received, and in reply 

 can give an excellent report. I have had splendid success, 

 have five out of six. Out of the six you sent there were four 

 pullets and two cockerels. My White Orpingtons are a credit 

 to you as well as myself, and they have been raised almost 

 entirely by the Philo System. If at any time I need any poultry 

 supplies you will hear from me. 



Mrs. J. G. Jacobs.

 E. R. Philo, Elmira, N. Y. 



Dear Sir: — The six baby chickens I bought from you 

 arrived all O. K. They were, however, delayed about twelve 

 hours in reaching me, but they were bright and active. I 

 received them at night and the next morning they were hungry 

 as wolves, and I made them the custard you suggested. I am 

 greatly pleased with them and expect to make good later on. 

 They are the most active chicks I ever saw.
