TYCOS HYGEOMETEB, No. 5796. 



Millions of chicks die in the shell every 

 year for lack of proper moisture condi- 

 tions. The correct percentage of moisture 

 during incubation determines to a great 

 extent the success or failure of your 

 hatch. The "Tycos" is an accurate indi- 

 cator of the degree of moisture present, 

 showing exactly what' the conditions are, 

 so that if they are not correct they can be 

 made so. It is fitted with an easy reading 

 scale of black oxidized brass with white 

 filled figures and graduation; glass cistern 

 and silk wicks which can be duplicated at 

 any time. "Tycos" stands for quality, 

 accuracy and dependability. Price, $1.75; 

 weight 12 ounces. Wicks, 20c. each. To 

 get a good hatch of chickens, the Hygro- 

 meter should register 55%, ducks 65%.

 coil spring Hygrometer for indicating per-
