Club Selections for Experimenting in Chicken Lots 
The time is rapidly approaching when scientists will 
recognize the value of tree crops in carrying health-build¬ 
ing hormones, enzymes and vitamines. Such foods will 
balance the abnormal cost of commercial foods in today’s 
chicken feeding schedules and build better health. After 
a number of years of study, we’re ready to offer a small 
selection. Try them in your chicken yard. We have 
nothing to offer this season but small one year seedlings 
except the grafted persimmons. 
Suggested Selection 
3 Paw Paw 
3 Jujube 
3 American mulberries 
3 Servisberry 
Special offer on this combination, $2.25 
This is an excellent collection to get started on the 
road to successful poultry raising. In addition we suggest 
a few select persimmons, or if you want, experiment with 
selected seedling persimmon as offered in wildlife list at 
the same price as for above. Place a wire protector around 
each to prevent chickens from devouring foliage, and 
let’em grow.
