Poultry Runs 



that are Indestructible 



DON'T spend your money on a make- 

 shift with wooden posts and light, 

 flimsy wire. 



Add just a bit more for one of our specially 

 constructed fences with galvanized Steel Angle 

 Posts that can be driven — and heavy rust -proof 

 netting. 



The cheapest in the end, because it saves the 

 frequent repair bills, and gives you real satis- 

 faction year after year. 



Prices and detailed information on this or any 

 other style of fence you may require, upon request.

fO. K. Poultry Litters 



Trade Mark. 



So far ahead of everything else in the way of litter that every 



breeder is adopting it as rapidly as he finds out about it. 



Send TO-DAY for FREE sample of "0. K." LITTER 



Tell us how many birds you keep, and we will tell you 

 how much "O. K." LITTER you need 



NOTHING FINER FOR THE BROODERS 



When you use "O. K." LITTER you need no dropping 

 boards; clean your house only three or four times a year; use no 

 disinfectants or insecticides, as lice and vermin do not flourish 

 where "O. K." LITTER is used; your house and brooder are 

 always sweet and clean, with positively no 

 odor; the feathers and legs are bright and shiny. 

 In the Brooder one lot of "O. K." LITTER lasts 

 until the chicks have outgrown the brooder without 

 one single cleaning out. The greatest labor saver.
