Jamesway Electric Battery Brooder 
The Jamesway Electric Battery Brooder permits the poultryman to raise his chicks quicker and 
with less work than without one. It is made in two sizes and in two styles in the 1,000-chick size. 
Each compartment holds 100 day-old chicks, operated independently and has an automatically con¬ 
trolled electric heating unit w'hich extends across the top of each section, thereby giving an even dis¬ 
tribution of heat. 
The clearance of 1^ inches between the floor-screen and removable droppings-pan helps to make 
this Battery Brooder easy to keep clean. Oversize feeding-pans are located both front and rear and 
are easily removed and cleaned. The watering-troughs are also removable. Feed and water-openings 
are adjustable to accommodate large or small chicks. 
The heating connection for each unit is located in the corner post. You need to heat only the 
sections where the chicks are and turn on heat in other sections only as chicks are added. These heating 
units operate on no or 220-volt A.C. or D.C. current. 
Can be used without electric heating units if used in a 
heated room. Mounted on substantial truck which 
makes them portable. Shipped knocked down for freight 
savings, but easy to assemble.

MaKomb Laying Battery 
Sufficient experimental work has been carried out during recent years to prove that 
the Laying Battery method of producing eggs and meat at a minimum cost can be 
successful. In the 1937 model of MaKomb Laying Batteries the latest improvements 
in Laying Battery equipment have been incorporated. 
Previous to this time the Battery was in an experimental stage, but now we feel 
that it has reached a working perfection. 
Lowers feed-cost. Reduced feed-consumption is assured and 10 pounds of feed 
should be saved annually per hen. 
Labor reduced. With this new model 1,000 hens can be cared for easier than the 
same number can be taken care of in the old floor method. Once the routine of handling 
the MaKomb Batteries is learned, you can do your work in a remarkably short time. 
Automatic culling. It is easier to discover the non-producers and ailing fowls, with 
consequent greater opportunity to avoid total loss. 
Doubles capacity. For example, allowing the recommended 4 square feet per bird, 
a house 20 x 60 feet should carry 300. Equipped with rows of 9 72-bird units, it houses 
648, with wide aisles to work in. Buildings are a costly factor, and the securing of double 
capacity justifies the use of Batteries. Each
