PRIZE MAMMOTH 

 BRONZE 



TURKEY. 



We know of no fowl possessing so many points of superiority for the poultry raiser or praetical farmer as tlie "White 

 Wyandotte. For beauty, style and fine forni they have no equal. Their plumage Lieiiig a pure snow white, with legs, beaks 

 and skin a rich yellow. As a market or table fowl they have no superior. They have a close-titting, medium-sized rose comb, 

 and thus are not troubled by the frost, as the Minorcas and Leghorns. They mature quickly, commence laying very early and 

 continue through the season uninterruptedly. They are good foragers and make the kindest mothers. The birds we are 

 breeding are the best that careful selection and money could secure, breeding so remarkably true that out of several hundred 

 bred the past two seasons not one bird showed a black feather. 



PRICES :— Single cock or cockerel, S4.00 to S4.50; pair mated for breeding, S7.00; trio, cock and 2 hens, $10.00. Eggs for 

 Hatching, from our best prize stock, per setting of 13, S2.50; per 26, $1.75. 



MAM3IOTH BRONZE TXJRKETS. 



It is well to remember that it costs no more to raise good stock than 

 it does poor. The common Turkey gobler at maturity weighs from 

 eighteen to twenty-five pounds — the Mammoth Bronze from thirty-five 

 to forty pounds. When the result is so much better the slight difference 

 in first cost is not to beconsidered. Ourstrain of these Mammoth Bronze 

 Turkeys has no superior in this country. Their plumage is a beautiful 

 metallic bronze. Yearling goblers weigh from thirty-five to forty 

 pounds each, and yearling hens eighteen to twenty-six pounds each. 

 Our young goblers, at six months old, frequently weigh twenty to 

 twenty-five pounds each. Prices: tiio, tom and two hens, mated for 

 breeding, S16.00 : pair, mated, ?12.00; single tom or hen, 57.00 to S8.00. 

 Eggs for hatching, £3.00 for 6; 85.75 for 12. 



As Turkeys do not lay itntU late iJi the spring we are sOTnetitnes obliged to 

 hold orders for a time.
