QUEEN INCUBATORS 



A QUEEN costs but little more, and the extra chicks that live and grow soon pay the difference. 

 Remember, it is not how many chicks you HATCH that counts, but how many you RAISE. 

 Chicks that hatch out weak and wobbly, and live but a few days, mean nothing to you but troubl© 

 and loss. They make one sick of the poultry business. 



Most of the chicks you lose in the first few weeks die because they did not have, when hatched 

 enough strength or vitality for a good start. Queen Incubators are famous the country over for 

 big hatches of strong, healthy chicks that live and grow. 



PROPER INSULATION 



The Queen is doubly insulated. First we use double walls of California Red- 

 wood, forming a dead air space. Second, corrugated strawboard is used between 

 the wooden walls. Proper insulation adds considerable expense to the manufac- 

 turing cost. However, it is an absolute requirement of a good Incubator. 



QUEEN HOT WATER HEATING 



The Queen System of hot water heating prevent.^ the drying-out tendencies 

 found in hot air incubators and provides a soft, uniform heat over every part of 

 the egg chamber — a heat that is most natural for the hatching eggs. The circula- 

 •> tion of water through the 

 , radiator prevents any mois- 

 ture being added or taken 

 ^ " away from the eggs. When 

 it becomes necessary to re- 

 • move the lamp, the hot water 



circulating through the radia- 

 tor maintains an even heat 

 within the egg chamber with- 

 out the slightest variation. 

 Queen Incubators are not 

 cheap, but they are cheap in the long run. They will be turning out good hatches 

 years after the cheap machines have been junked. 

 The Queen line has all copper heater and pipes.

QUEEN STOVE BROODER 



The Queen Col- 

 ony Brooder Is a 



new and improved 

 design of brooder 

 stove. It is made of 

 highest quality iron 

 castings that will 

 wear and last indef- 

 initely. 



There are no 

 drafts on the smoke 

 pipe of the Queen. 

 The check rests on 

 top of the stove and 

 opens outward when 

 fire is too warm, 

 thus giving a gentle 

 inflow of air to re- 

 tard the heat. While 

 the opening of the 

 draft to increase the 

 fire is located at the 

 top of the stove, it 

 opens into the fire 

 at the base through 

 an opening extend- 

 ing down the side to 

 the bottom. This 

 feeds the draft into 

 the fire from under- 

 neath with no open- 

 ing below the hover. 



BURNS ANY KINO OF FUEL, 

 The Queen stove burns any kind of fuel with equally satis- 

 factory results. We recommend chestnut sizes in all kinds of 

 fuel and hard or soft coal, coke or charcoal burn equally well. 

 Of course, hard coal will not cause the pipe to become dirty 

 as quickly as the others, but it wiH give no better heat.
