26° Below and Still Laying 
Mrs. John Berner, Sr., one of our good 
customers over at Avoca, Nebr., sent in this 
picture with her order this spring and said, 
“Picture of our daughter, Pauline, with one 
of Henry Field’s Leghorn’s. When we have 
zero weather or 26° below, these hens keep 
right on laying. They don’t stop for any¬ 
thing.” 
Good Breeding Counts 
That’s just another case to prove that the 
good breeding behind my chicks pays big divi¬ 
dends. My chicks are hatched with 200 to 
300 egg-blood and they are always going to 
lay more than common chicks under all sorts 1 
of conditions. I don’t have to tell you folks 
that it ALWAYS PAYS TO BUY GOOD 
BREEDING, in your livestock — especially 
when it isn’t costing you any more than for 
common stock. 
NOW! HENRY FIELD IS HATCHING 
CHICKS FOR FALL DELIVERY! 
Look at those prices below — in some cases lower than spring prices. But 
they’re for delivery now. Everyone of the 25 varieties listed can be shipped all 
during the fall, if you get your orders in now. The demand for my chicks has 
been so heavy, I have had to keep the hatchery running full blast and will have 
plenty of chicks ready for you.

Fall Chicks Pay 
Fall chicks pay big dividends. Because of the cool weather, fall started chicks 
require less care, less fuel, make cheaper gains AND STILL SELL AT THE 
TOP OF THE SPRING MARKET BECAUSE THEY’RE EARLY—many times 
as high as 23c lb. You’re bound to make money on that market. 
Dor’i Lei Youi Broodei House Stand Idle—Make a Double Profit! 
No use letting that brooder house stand idle. The only way to make that 
equipment pay is to use it. Raising fall chicks brings you back a double profit 
on that investment. >' ■ 
Orders Booked in Order Received 
The only thing I am going to ask you to do is get your orders for fall chicks
