PRAIRIE STATE UNIVERSAL HOVER 



It may be attached to any form of outdoor brooder two feet or more in height, 

 to any size or form of colony house, shed, coop, piano, dry goods or organ box. It 

 also enables those who wish to build their own brooders to get the best brooding 

 device possible in an economical manner. It fills that want, felt by everyone who 

 raises poultry, for something they can use anywhere, any time, and do the work well. 



The hover is twenty-two inches in diameter, the top of wliicii is wood, lined with 

 strawboard, a 4-inch rim extending downward, to which is attached six inches of 

 felt curtains. The hover stands on three iron feet, but is not stationary, and may 

 be raised and moved instantly, if desired. 



A thermometer is provided, which may be read from the outside without disturb- 

 ing any part of the brooder. The lamp used is made of metal, using a No. 2 Sun 

 Hinge Burner and a metallic chimney seven inches in length, tlius assuring a steady, 

 bright, clear flame; the lamp being on the outside of the brooder in view at all 

 times. Surrounding the hot-air flue or chimney is a fresh-air pipe through which 

 fresh air, slightly warmed, is injected into tlie upper part of the brooder. This dif- 

 fuses downward and tlirough the curtains, thus furnislilng a perfect system of 

 \entilation. At an additional cost of $1 to the regular price a standard water regu- 

 lator may be attached to the hover, by the use of which a uniform temperature can 

 be maintained without close attention. It is not essential, but a great convenience 

 during the cold, changeable weather, and .greatly aids the operator in supplying the 

 desired conditions for newly hatched chicks, relieving him of any cause of worry 

 concerning the brood.

 construction, and will rhere- 

 fore last indefinitely. Its

 pacity, which will not only

 from four to five 

 hours. It rests

 upon legs, which 

 may easily break, 

 and which permit 

 a hot space imder

 ous to chicks. The^ 

 chicks are com- 

 fortably warmed 

 over their backs 

 by a deflection of 

 heat from the can- 

 opy. It is the only 

 stove on the mar- 

 ket equipped with 

 the semi-closed type of canopy, 

 and the canopy is the only one 

 equipped witli a curtain which 

 is adjustable to such an extent 

 as to give additional security 

 in regulation of required tem- 

 perature.

 giving triple control with one motion of the lever and assur- 

 ing absolute positive action at all times. The entire equip- 

 ment is quickly and easily portable, as the canopy, once re- 

 moved, can be "nested and the whole outfit conveniently taken 

 from place to place.
