WOOD'S PURE STRAIN eco S Start Laying 
i t 
BABY CHICKS ; eases sah a hi pullets that will lay at least 3 
or 4 dozen more eggs with less culling and 10% to 20% lower 
laying house mortality—because they’re bred to do it. Each 
year many more poultry raisers are starting two broods of 
chicks—one in the spring and one in the fall. Order WOOD’S 
QUALITY CHICKS NOW and have broilers in the spring and 
summer months. Egg prices are at a very high level now and 
will no doubt continue so for quite some time. 
A few cents more per chick is well justified. Feed the chicks 
on arrival, especially if they come from any distance. Put 
the feed on papers over the litter for the first couple of days 
until the chicks learn what and where it is. You cannot keep 
the yard too clean for baby chicks. Stir the litter every day to 
give it a chance to absorb more moisture and it will not have to 
be changed so often. 

: Place Your Order Early 
There is a big job for all of us to share in—helping provide food fur America for 
the duration. WOOD’S BABY CHICKS are from selected flocks. They are blood- 
tested, pure breeds. Baby Chicks are not like goods on the shelf in the store. They 
must be shipped when hatched, and this means orders placed ahead. 
We anticipate an unusually heavy demand for chicks this spring, with a resultant 
shortage of chicks available and in order to avoid delay, we urge our customers to — 
place orders NOW as far ahead of shipping date wanted as possible, remitting cash 
with order, naming a second choice. 
~ Poultry raisers should remember that every spring means a new war on parasites, 
which can easily destroy your profits if allowed to gain a foothold. Worm eggs and 
coccidia hibernate in the soil and are vicious snipers. They kill lots of chicks.
