MaKomb Oil Brooder 
Economical to Operate—Reliable—Low in First Cost 
An efficient, safe, and economical Brooder which provides the same 
abundant heat as a coal Brooder, with a big saving in labor in handling 
fuel and ashes. Burns with a clean flame, which is evidence that no 
fuel is being wasted and that the full benefit of all the heat units in the 
oil is being utilized. The heat is automatically regulated by an all¬ 
brass gun-type control valve so that an even, uniform heat is main¬ 
tained under all conditions. 
Has copper-bearing blued steel drum, 14 inches in diameter, 13% 
inches high; wickless all cast-iron burner, and galvanized steel hexagon 
canopy 55 inches in diameter. Comes complete with oil-tank, separate 
shut-off cock, 5-inch draft adjuster, and overflow pipe. Accommodates 
500 chicks. No. 1455. $11.90. 
MaKomb Coal Brooder 
Outstanding value is evident in every detail of these improved 
models. The MaKomb is easy to operate—nothing complicated 
or to get out of order. Requires little attention. It is scientifically 
designed to raise more chicks with less work and less fuel. 
The husky, cast-iron stoves have fluted barrels for greater 
radiation and efficiency. Patented upper damper leaves the stove- 
top entirely clear so the coal door is extra big and handy. It 
hinges back against the pipe, out of the way. 
The canopy is made of best galvanized iron. It revolves around 
stove to any position and has a big hinged door in one section.

supported on legs. The automatic valve-construction has been 
held to close limits, and every precaution taken to insure perfect

and can be operated with either natural or artificial gas.
