Feed the 
whole 
Chick! 
By feeding grain alone you over-feed part of the chick’s body and under-feed other 
parts. Grain feed supplies an excess of heat and energy but is deficient in elements 
that make blood, nerves, bone, lean meat and feathers. 
Purina Chicken Chowder 
contains an abundance of the very elements which grain feed lacks — and thus all parts of the chick get 
maximum nourishment. When fed with Purina Chick Feed as directed, we guarantee 
Double development or money back 
during the first six weeks of a chick's life. Sold only in checkerboard bags, by leading dealers everywhere. 
If your dealer doesn’t keep Purina Feeds, send us his name and get our 64 page Poultry Book FREE, 
containing charts for breeding and feeding, care of baby chicks, blank egg records, etc. Write

“Yard Rotation” 
What Can be Done With 
SIX SECTIONS 
The sketches illustrate four changes which 
may be worked out with six sections around 
a small poultry house. Any one of these 
arrangements is secured in a few moments 
just by quickly and easily re-setting the 
sections. You then have a chick-tight, 
neat, durable fence — but subject to any 
change you wish to make.

Yard Rotation doubles the pleasure of poultry raising. It permits 
the quick changing of yards without digging, and without heavy 
tools. Yard Rotation becomes a practical science when “BUF- 
FALO” Portable Poultry Runways are used. Adopted by poultry, 
rabbit and dog fanciers. Just as practical on large farm as back 
yard plot. 
“BUFFALO” 
PortablePoultry 
Runways are 
now in use by 
many fanciers 
who appreciate 
the extra plea- 
sure and profit 
derived from a 
plan that per- 
mits yard rota- 
tion, and keeps 
the birds work- 
ing on fresh soil while a green crop grows in the old yard. 
Most practical plan ever devised for back-yard gardens — but 
equally serviceable on large farms where temporary pens are often quickly wanted. These 
sections are erected by pressing into the ground. Very durable. Attractive. No large 
tools or staples required. Write for a copy of Booklet No. 67A on the “BUFFALO” 
Portable Fencing System — it’s free, and crowded with helpful suggestions.
