Raised 88 Out of 100 
“Dear Friend Field: Last year I received 
my first Buff Orpington chicks from you. 
Had extra good luck for early chicks. Raised 
88 from the 100, had 23 hens and 10 roosters 
for my whole flock. When my pullets were 
6% months old, I got the first eggs. You can 
look forward to an early order from me this 
year.”’—Corrine F. Coats, Hallsville, Mo.

“T’ve wanted to write to you and tell you 
how pleased I was with the mixed cockerel 
baby chix I got from you this spring. There 
were a few over 500. I lost a few and we ate 
a lot. I kept 50 pullets (that’s all there 
were) and I sold 325 when they were 4 
months old. They averaged 41316 lbs. each 
then. I never had chickens before that did 
anywhere near as good as those did. How 
soon do you hatch next spring?’—Mrs. Art 
Weinreich, Pierson, la.

*Dear Mr. Field: I bought some Barred 
Plymouth Rock chicks last spring from you 
and they began laying when they were 5 
months old and are the best layers I ever 
had, They are all pets. I think you have 
wonderful chickens.’—Thomas Blake, Og-

Field Chicks Real Bargain 
_ ‘Dear Mr. Field: We_ received 100 
light assorted Cockerels from you 
which we ordered on your 5-day spe- 
cial, and they are certainly doing fine 
—so healthy and full of life. Don’t 
see how you can sell such nice chicks 
for that price. We showed your price 
list to some friends of ours, and they 
thought it was such a bargain, they 
ordered some of you, too.’”—Arnold 
Melin, Brule, Nebr. 
Grew Faster Than Other Chicks 
“Dear Mr. Field: I have been wanting to 
write you about my Speckled Sussex. I got 
100 from you, and Mr. Field, I never had such 
wonderful chicks. They grew faster than 
my other chickens which were 3 or 4 weeks 
older.’—Mrs. Fred Victora, Harlham, Iowa. 
Field's Chicks Strongest 
“Dear Mr. Field: We got 100 legorcas from 
you April 22, and they did wonderful. They 
were the strongest chicks I’ve ever had. We 
raised 94 from the 100, and have 42 pullets 
in the group.’’—Mrs. Glen Smith, Fremont,

Will Always Buy Field's Chicks 
“I want to tell you about my 25 White 
Rock chicks I got from you this year. I 
think they are dandy. I still have 23 of 
them. They are getting so big. I got them 
on the 19th of June. They have such _ nice 
yellow legs and that’s the kind Ilike. What 
I got last year had such dark greenish col-J} 
ored legs. I didn’t like them. I sure think 
there are no chickens like Henry Field’s, for 
they lay so good and weigh so good, I will 
always buy Henry Field’s chicks for the fine 
birds I get and the extra amount of eggs. 
Lots more than my neighbors get.’’—Mrs. R. 
Cc. Collins, Florence, So. Dakota. 
45 Eggs from 52 Hens 
“Dear Mr. Field: I want to write to you 
and tell you what we think of your chickens 
we ordered from you last year. For our part! 
we have never had chicks that grew so fast 
and were so strong and husky as your Leg- 
orcas. We kept 52 pullets over winter, and 
they started to lay in November and have 
kept on strong ever since. The last three 
months we have been gathering in between 
40 and 45 eggs every day for our 52 hens. 
We think that is just grand, and just cannot 
say enough for your Legorcas.”—Mr. and 
Mrs. Chester Taylor, Hoople, No. Dak.

Get Those Chicks Ordered Now 
Lots of folks put off ordering chicks un- 
til just a day or two before they need 
them. Then sometimes they find we are 
sold out for that day and are disappointed 
when they have to wait one or two more 
days. 
That’s why I put my prices low, early, 
like they are now, and give you free gifts 
to encourage you to order right away. 
That gives us a chance to plan our hatches 
go we can send you the chicks you want, 
RIGHT on the day you want them. My 
chick prices have never been so low be- 
fore. It’s the time to buy.—H.F. 
_ Prices are on the enclosed price list. 
‘(Same as catalog’s low prices.) 
Chick Orders 3 Times Last Yr. 
Our chick business this spring has been 
running just THREE TIMES as heavy as 
last year. We’ve been rushed to death. 
I suppose you wonder just how that af- 
fects you and why you should be inter- 
ested in our business. 
Well, there’s a good reason. When 
business increases with leaps and bounds 
like that it means just one thing. That 
company is giving good measure and good 
quality and good prices and people are 
hearing about it. And that’s what we're 
‘breaking our neck to do. We'll give you 
the best chicks in the world at a fair price 
and please you 100% or die trying. So 
let’s have your order. We’ll do our best 
to make you more pleased with your 
chicks than you ever have been before.
