Master-Mated Chicks and 
Ducklings 
Master-Mating means you 
get big , husky , lively 
chicks with 
—Greater earning power 
bred 
in. 
—You take extra profits 
out. 
Master-Mating is tlie expert, 
personal control in the skill¬ 
ful mating and pairing in 
each of our different breeds 
insuring chicks of vigorous health, early maturity, profitable egg production and large size. To further 
improve the flocks, our hatchery each year secures costly seed stock from the leading specialty breeders in 
U. S. and Canada. By this BALANCED PROGRAM, we get chicks that are far more valuable and profitable 
than the ordinary chick that does not have this inheritance behind it.

"Master-Mated" Chick Grades 
A —This is our regular standard qual¬ 
ity chick. All of these chicks come from 
flock matings that measure up to our 
most rigid requirements for health, 
vigor and high egg production com¬ 
bined with exhibition qualities. 
AA —All chicks produced from these 
matings come from sires whose dams 
under the trapnest laid 150 or more 
eggs in their pullet year in the heavy 
varieties, and 200 or more eggs in the 
Leghorn variety. Egg production in 
this grade will far exceed our Regular 
Grade A. 
AAA —Our most popular grade—and 
here is real egg production. The sires 
heading our Triple A matings in White 
Rocks, S. C. Reds and Barred Rocks all 
come from dams that laid 200 or more 
eggs (many over 225 eggs) under the 
traps in their pullet year. White Leg¬ 
horns over 225 eggs and many over 250 
eggs. The other varieties are not 
headed by trapnested stock but are out¬ 
standing matings in each breed, 
selected for superior egg production 
and exhibition qualities. 
UTILITY—Our lowest priced grade. 
These chicks come from matings which 
do not quite measure up to the high 
quality we require for our regular 
standard “A” grade. Well worth the 
money.
