drum type brooder. Maintains constant oil pressure at

Equipped with rotating air spreader. These burners 
create perfect combustion, eliminate 
excessive soot and carbon through 
the proper mixture of air with the 
oil gases for burning. 
I am pleased to offer 
you on my famous money 
back guarantee, this new 
drum type oil burning 
brooder. Whether you are 
going to brood a hundred 
chicks or a thousand, the 
Mayway Drum Type Oil 
Brooder will do a great 
job for you. I guarantee 
them to heat any brooder 
house that can be heated 
by brooders of similar size, regardless of 
higher price. These two new features make 
this the most satisfactory and most eco¬ 
nomical drum type brooder on the market 
today. 
The Carburetor Valve equalizes the pres¬ 
sure and gives you uniform pressure at 
all times, eliminating all trouble. 
The new Kwik Kleen Burner is constructed 
so the air and oil gases are properly mixed 
to give a clear blue hot flame, with-no car¬ 
bon, soot or other foreign matter to cause 
trouble. 
All sizes are equipped with complete can¬ 
opies for deflecting the heat to the brooder 
house floor. No heat escapes into the upper 
room to be wasted. Temperature is always 
maintained at the proper brooding level.
