REUTER'S GUARANTEE 
Renter guarantees to deliver alive 
the full number of chicks ordered, 
that each chick will be true to name 
as represented. When shipment is re¬ 
ceived, please count the number of 
live chicks immediately in the pres¬ 
ence of the delivery agent. If less 
than ordered, have agent sign a state¬ 
ment verifying the number of live 
chicks received, and mail to us at 
once. Reuter will promptly replace 
with free chicks, or refund your 
money for such shortages. All claims 
must be made promptly, within 48 
hours after delivery. Of course, since 
the care of chicks after delivery is 
beyond my control. I cannot assume 
responsibility for losses caused by ac¬ 
cident. neglect or improper care. 
Reuter will notify you just when 
your chicks will be delivered. 
QUALITY CHICKS 
Reuter’s R. 0. P. Quality Baby 
Chicks are Super Quality Chicks bred 
to an even Higher Quality for heavier 
egg production and type perfection, 
by the process of using genuine Wing- 
Banded Record of Performance Male 
Birds, and mating them to our out¬ 
standing heavy egg laying flocks. 
Such matings form what we term 
Master Matings, and they are Second 
to none. Every breeder in each and 
every flock is hand picked, and tested 
for Pullorum every Pall by the ag¬ 
glutination or rapid stained antigen 
method, and all reactors removed. 
IN BUYING BABY CHICKS 
the most important consideration is the 
reputation of the Company or Firm you buy from. You know Reuter Seed 
Company, and you know that you can rely on getting Quality merchandise, 
whether it be Seeds, Plants, Shrubs or Baby Chicks. Sixty years in business 
and over 600,000 customers are ample proof that it is safe to deal with Reuter. 
OUTLOOK GOOD FOR FALL BROILERS AND FRYER PRICES. 
The U. S. Department of Agriculture in their June 17th, 1940, Marketing 
Service release state “Cold Storage holdings of broilers as of June 1st, 1940, 
are 40 per cent smaller—and of Fryers 56 per cent smaller than a year ago.” 
With these substantial facts which indicate profitable broiler and fryer prices 
this Fall, and with a better Feed-Egg Ratio prevailing now than earlier this 
spring, and bumper grain crops already harvested and “in the bin” why not 
take advantage of THESE LOW FALL PRICES on REUTER’S R. O. P. 
QUALITY CHICKS—and make up a substantial order RIGHT NOW.
