Oakes “Gro-Ezy” Electric Brooders 
This sturdy product embodies many of the best features to be found in any 
Battery Brooder. It is substantially built. Mounted on casters for portability. 
Each drawer or shelf is a separate independent unit and can be used outside 
the portable rack. 
Each drawer slides out of the frame as a complete unit. The woven wire 
floor of %-inch mesh is finished in bright tin. This floor is not to be compared 
with the dingy hardware cloth ordinarily used. Droppings cannot catch and hold 
on wire intersections. A deep dropping pan is just underneath the floor with 
1 % inches of clearance. Pan is easily removed. 
The chicks eat from open troughs. Every chick has a chance to get its fill. A chick will g > to an open trough 
every time in preference to eating or drinking through holes or between wires, or bars. In each “Gro- 
Ezy” drawer there are two 20-inch feed troughs and one 20-inch water trough. These troughs are open their 
entire length. The feed is easily accessible and yet the chicks cannot get into it or foul it. 
Chicks always see the feed but no feed is wasted. Doors lift up and drop into slots in the ends of the trough, 
providing an adjustment of the feeding space from % inch to 1 % inches in width. This is ample room for 
chicks from a day old to ten weeks old. 
Each drawer is 35 inches deep, 22% inches wide, and 9% inches high. Chicks can be carried to 8 weeks. 
The lid is removable. Canvas curtain is attached to lid and divides the drawer into two parts. 
Electric heating elements and Thermostatic Control are attached to back panel behind the canva3 curtain.

VESFUME-Graln Fumigant 
VESFUME—A liquid fumigant, kills by fumes that 
it generates through evaporation. Being four and one- 
half times heavier than air, these fumes travel down¬ 
ward, penetrating into every crevice below the point 
where it is applied. It is guaranteed to kill weevil, 
moths and other grain insects in all stages of devel¬ 
opment. 
VESFUME is safe under all fumigating conditions. 
It does not injure human health or life. It is non¬ 
contaminating and does not change the odor, taste, 
appearance or baking qualities of flour or grain. Neither 
does it affect the germinating seed. VESFUME evap¬ 
orates completely, leaving no residue or odor. 
VESFUME involves no risk of fire or explosion and 
can be used anywhere without danger, because VES¬ 
FUME is non-inflammable and holds its strength when 
kept sealed. 
Approved by Underwriters Laboratory and Mutual 
Fire Prevention Bureau. 
Use 1 quart VESFUME for everv 125 bushels of grain.
