Howl Bred $50 to $1600 in 2 Years 
I want to tell you bow one man took $50 worth of my 
kind of poultry and in two years multiplied them to sixteen 
hundred dollars in value. He was a novice and started in 
a box stall. A true and convincing story, told by the man 
himself. You can do the same, or start smaller and grow. 
More experience of the same kind, illustrated. Ask me 
for the book. It is free.
