The cost of Feed and Effect on Cockerels 
The price of grain is having the effect of reducing the quantity of cockerels 
that will be hedd for possible breeders. It "ivill be almost an impossibility to 
secure suitable breeding males if you delay placing your order until the time you 
actually need them. Reason this out yourself. Therefore we ask all those who 
believe'in preparedness to place their order for future delivery now. We offer 
you the choicest selection of FULL BARRON COCKERELS from directly 
imported pen last fall, pedigrees ranging from IMO Dam, 2S0 Sire to 272 Dam 
2bS Sire. Now more than ever do you need eflicient breeding stock. Our 
catalog will give full details.
