FOR SURE PROFITS 
1936 MODEL—FORD CHICKS 
We know that handsome profits can be yours If you buy FORD BABY CIIICKS. Many owners of 
FORD CHICKS at this time have had income sufficient from their purchase of last year to pay all 
expenses to date and from now on the only expense is the feed bills. Comparatively small flocks of 
pullets are earning- $1.00 per day above feed costs. 
FORD CHICKS have 18 years of conscientious breeding back of them. Ford breeding flocks have 
a foundation of sound health back of them. They are developed slowly during the growing season 
so that large, strong, rugged bodies are the result. Their ability to produce paying quantities of large 
eggs is a matter of record. FORD CHICKS come from breeding flocks which have no history whatso¬ 
ever of Range Paralysis. Every single, solitary breeding bird has been blood-tested this Fall and all 
re-actors removed. Of the 9,000 birds already tested this Fall, the average re-action has been less 
than 2%. A certified record of everv breeding bird is on file and subject to your inspection. 
FORD CHICKS are not cheap chicks, but, considering their quality, the price is not high. Would 
you not rather have 100 large, husky, vigorous FORD PULLETS in your laying house, producing a 
paying volume of large, good colored eggs than 200 uneven, ordinary pullets laying small eggs that 
fail by a large margin of topping the market? 
Very few FORD customers ever encounter diseases in their growing flocks, but, for the benefit 
of all of you who read this page, we wish to say that, with every order for FORD CHICKS, we will 
present you with an article on Poultry Management which is the result of our experiences and obser¬ 
vations covering 3,000 flocks and over 2,000,000 birds over a period of the last 6 years. 
After reading this article on Poultry Management, we believe you will find it unnecessary in the 
future to spend out large sums of money for medicines and suffer a large loss of birds. We say to 
you frankly that this article is worth, in actual money, $25.00 to anyone who raises chickens every 
year. Bear in mind, we have no remedies to sell- Our article on Poultry Management, if conscien¬ 
tiously followed, enables you to grow 95% of your baby chick purchases into large, healthy birds. 
FORD CHICKS are produced in two qualities; namely, FORD UTILITY BRED CHICKS and FORD 
MASTER QUALITY CHICKS. A postcard from you will bring immediately a description of our two 
grades of chicks and our reasonable price list. Furthermore, we guarantee all statements and 
descriptions made regarding FORD CHICKS to be true and supported by actual evidence. FORD 
CHICKS are produced to give you satisfaction and profits. Please bear in mind that baby chicks 
are no different than any other merchandise—you get only what you pay for. 
FORD’S BROILER CHICKS. During the months of January, February, and March, we specialize 
in high quality broiler chicks. These chicks are noted for their fast feathering and quick development, 
making it possible to market these birds at an early age on a profitable basis to yourself. Only the 
very finest quality chicks are profitable for broiler production. We say to you frankly, that $5.00 or 
$10.00 saved on the purchase of 500 or 1,000 broiler chicks, 80% of the time results in a loss to the 
purchaser
