INCUBATORS AND BROODERS 



J. MANNS & CO. 



IDEAL HOT-WATER INCUBATORS. 



m 



The Ideal incorporates every advantage and improvement 

 known in a first-class incubator, and is the simplest method 

 of artificial hatching. The outside and inside walls of 

 the incubator are made of one-inch thick California Red- 

 wood, interlined with corrugated fiber board, which pro- 

 duces a dead-air space between the inner and outer walls 

 of the incubator, so that the outside temperature has no 

 effect upon the Egg Chamber. 



The lamp support is a fireproof box, which encloses the 

 boiler in such a way that the heat is concentrated direct to 

 the boiler and eliminates all possible waste of fuel. 



The tubular tank and boiler is made of pure copper, and 

 guaranteed against leaks. By filling the tank with hot 

 water in starting the incubator, a temperature up to 103 

 degrees can be obtained in less than two hours. The 

 Ideal is furnished complete with all necessary fixtures, 

 attachments and instruction book to operate same success- 

 fully.

IDEAL COLONY BROODER. 



The Colony brooder has been in use for a number of 

 years by thousands of poultrymen, and has never failed to 

 give satisfaction. It burns hard or soft coal, and is self- 

 regulating, check-valve or damper being hung on a sharp 

 edge fulcrum so that it works perfectly.

IDEAL BROODER FOR INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE. 

 HOT-AIR HEATED. 



The brooder is divided into two compartments: The 

 hover, which is directly under the heater pipes, and the 

 exercise-room in front next to the glass windows. The 

 two compartments are separated by a heavy felt curtain. 

 The chicks go into the hover to get warm the same as they 

 do when they go under the old hen in the natural way.

 last indefinitely. Only first-class lumber is used in i\e
