The PRAIRIE STATE STOVE BROODER 



The Prairie State Stove Brooder is built solidly of cast iron throughout. 

 This stove Is not mounted upon legs. We have learned not to use them 

 because they afford a space under the stove where chicks may huddle and 

 be burned to death. Therefore, the base of our stove rests squarely upon 

 the floor. Bolted to it is a cylindrical cast-iron ash pit of ample capacity, 

 fitted with a solid door having non-heating handle and containing no open- 

 ing through which hot ash or sparks may fly. This door has no 

 function in the regulation of drafts, and need never be opened 

 except to remove ashes. The entire volume of fresh air required 

 for proper combustion passes, subject to action of the regulator, 

 through a cast-iron air inlet elbow bolted to the top of the ash 

 pit in such position as to admit air on the grate level. A one- 

 piece jointless fire box rests upon and is bolted to the ash pit cast- 

 ing. It is made of a high-grade foundry iron of chemical content, 

 such as will withstand intense heat through prolonged firing, and 

 with such capacity as to insure maintenance of the fire through 

 long periods. A free flow of fresh air has constant access to the 

 entire fire pot from the bottom as it enters through the air inlet 

 elbow. The top section of the stove, surmounting its fire box and 

 bolted to it, involves in its assembly a cast-iron valve seat which 

 makes air-tight contact when the upper regulator valve rests 

 upon it. Four angle brackets bolted integral with the top plate to 

 this section, two on each side of chimney opening, serve to support 

 two parallel angle steel bearing bars, upon which rests the gal- 

 vanized steel canopy or deflector forming the hover proper. Ex- 

 tending to the right of the chimney opening, and securely bolted 

 to the top plate, is a solid cast-iron bearer or bracket, from which 

 is suspended the entire regulator. The capacity of the Prairie 

 State Stove is as great as that of any stove upon the market to- 

 day. That is, it will give heat sufficient to brood as many as one 

 thousand to fifteen hundred chicks, doing it economically and 

 safely. The canopy deflector of the Prairie State Stove Brooder is 

 made of galvanized sheet steel, and in two sections, hinged to- 

 gether on a line with the center of the stove. The regulator with 

 which we equip the Prairie State Stove Brooder is automatic, 

 sensitive, positive, triple acting, and of exclusive Prairie State 

 design. It is of the wafer thermostat type, fastened to a bar ex- 

 tending downward from the regulator support, wafer being placed 

 at a level which has been carefully determined as best for indi- 

 cating exact floor temperature required.

0. K. POULTRY LITTER 



THE O. K. POULTRY ZiITTEB is a fibrous substance to be 

 used on the floor of the poultry house. It absorbs all moist- 

 ure and keeps the house dry and clean. As a litter for feed- 

 ing floors it will be found much better than anything else you 

 could use, as you are always sure of a dry floor, and at the 

 same time you will not be bothered with dust.' It Is very 

 economical to use, as a floor once laid will last about six 

 months. After cleaning it out of the house you will find it a 

 valuable fertilizer, as it will have sufficient chicken manure in 

 it to spread over quite a large area. 



Nothing is so good for little chickens; you should have 

 your brood floors covered with it. It keeps the little chickens 

 dry and clean, and in this way prevents many of the fatal 

 diseases that are prevalent among them.
