White Leghorns Lay Brown Eggs 
Is there anv cause in breed or sur¬ 
roundings for White Leghorn pullets lay¬ 
ing brown eggs? Pullets are penned. I 
have not set any brown eggs ; have had 
our strain for four years. w. H. 
Food or environment will not cause 
White Leghorn fowls to lay brown eggs, 
though some strains are more at fault 
than others in producing tinted shells. It 
is not often that Leghorns lay distinctly 
brown eggs, but many Leghorn eggs are 
far from being chalk white. The Tom 
Barron strain of Leghorns seems to be 
particularly faulty in the matter of pro¬ 
ducing white shells. This defect may be 
bred out by continued selection of chalk 
white eggs for hatching. Pullet eggs are 
more likely to be tinted than those of old 
fowls and the trouble may disappear 
with increasing age. I should suspect 
mixture of foreign blood only in case the 
eggs were distinctly brown and remained 
continuously so. m. b. d.

^Wishbone 
Valveless -Blue Flame Brooder 
T_TERE is unquestionably the best way to 
-*• raise chicks. If you want to see your 
chicks grow as they never grew before into 
stronger, meatier, heavier laying chickens, 
if you want to be freed of practically all 
work in raising chicks, put every one of your 
chicks under a Wishbone Brooder. 
Nothing to Go Wrong 
The Wishbone is simple, economical, and 
absolutely trouble-proof. It has the most 
powerful burner ever put in a brooder 
—gives plenty of heat in any weather. It 
has nojvalves, no strainers, no thermostats 
—nothing to get out of order. NO PRIM¬ 
ING,—a hot blue flame at the touch of a 
match. Many thousands are in use all over 
America—every one giving 100% satisfac¬ 
tion even in coldest Canada. 
Best for the Poultryman 
What a difference the Wishbone 
will make to you! It was invented 
for poultrymen by a poultryman. 
He knows what you want in a brooder, and 
he gives you everything you want in the 
Wishbone. The Wishbone makes raising 
chicks a cinch. 
Now’s the Time to Order

QUALITY CHICKS 
Chicks that live and thrive— because they are hatched by perfected 
methods, because they come of vigorous farm-range ancestry. 
Chicks that lay and pay —because they have the lay bred in them, 
because careful culling of the flocks has eliminated the hens that are “just 
boarders that never pay their board.” 
Because Hillpot Quality Chicks 
ancestors, Hillpot customers find 
“F want 1,000 Barred Rock 
Chicks early as possible. Two 
years ago J got my chicks 
from you and they did fine. 
I sold the capons alone for 
three times what they all cost 
me and had a nice lot of 
pullets left over which laid 
fine all winter. Last year I 
got something else and in the 
end I learned a pretty expen¬ 
sive lesson. Now it’s Hillpot 
Quality for me—and nothing 
else.” E. L. K.-Pa, 
repeat the superior laying quality of their 
them so profitable, they repeat their orders 
ear after year. That’s what has built this 
atchery from 5,000 to 2,000,000 annual 
production.
