CYPHERS HOVER BROODERS

WORLD'S CHALLENGE ADAPTABLE HOVER AND 



BROODER HEATER 



FIRE-PROOFED, INSURABLE, SELF=REQULATINQ AND 



5ELF-VENTILATINQ 



The Adaptable Hover that we employ in 

 regulating the latest-pattern Standard Cyphers 

 Incubators, and the fresh air, which is drawn 

 automatically into the hover space for use of 

 the chicks, is WARMED before it reaches them, 

 and no draft from the source of heat can possibly 

 get under the hover. It should be noted that 

 the Cyphers Company's Adaptable Hover is self- 

 regulating and self-ventilating as a separate device 

 irrespective of the brooder case or other enclosure 

 in which it is used. It is the temperature under- 

 neath the hover that is regulated, and pure, 

 warmed air is delivered to this point from the 

 fresh-air chamber, regardless of other conditions. 



ADAPTABLE HOVER 



(Self -regulating and bears Insurance Label as 



separate device.) 



Shows side view of combined Fire- proof Heater 

 and Standard Adaptable Hover, ready for use. 

 Device can be mounted; that is, joined together, 

 in less than thirty seconds' time. When uncrated 

 will be found to consist of five pieces (not including 

 regulator arm, regulator disc and thermometer), as 

 follows: Heater compartment, hover, two sections 

 of waste-heat pipe and T-fume vent and wind- 

 break. 



FOR TWENTY YEARS manufacturers of 

 incubators and brooders, not alone in the United 

 States, but also in leading European countries, 

 have been seeking to develop a practical type of 

 self-regulating and self-ventilating brooders. 

 Their wish has been to place these devices on a par 

 with the best incubators in use. The Cyphers 

 Company for years worked faithfully at this prob- 

 lem, but did not meet with real success until it 

 mvented the Adaptable Hover. 



WE HAD LONG BELIEVED that brooders, 

 to be entirely practical, should be automatic in 

 regulation and self -ventilating, especially at 



night. As at present equipped with our Adaptable 

 Hover, every lamp-heated brooder manufactured 

 and sold by us is both self-regulating and self- 

 ventilating. The same high-grade zinc and steel 

 thermostat is used on self -regulating and self- 

 ventilating. 



LAHP FLAME WILL NOT BLOW OUT 

 AND DOES NOT SUCK OUT 



REMARKABLE AS IT MAY SEEM, this 

 hover is so constructed that it could actually be 

 used out of doors without the protection of a case 

 or other enclosure and the lamp would not blow 

 out. This favorable condition arises from the fact 

 that there is no connection whatever in the form 

 of an air passage between the lamp chamber and 

 the space underneath the hover; therefore, fumes 

 from the lamp cannot possibly reach the space 

 where the chicks sleep, nor can the action of the 

 air on the interior of a brooder case, colony coop, 

 portable house or other enclosure affect the flame 

 of the lamp in the slightest degree. It is on this 

 account that the lamp chamber can be opened at 

 any time, in any location, for filling the bowl, 

 trimming the wick or adjusting the flame, and the 

 blaze positively will not suck out, regardless of 

 whether the doors, windows or chick exit to the 

 brooder case, roosting, or poultry house are opened. 



PORTABLE HOVER 



Movable — can be changed to a new spot or 

 location at any time by simply picking it up.
