Health and Growth — 
“Dear Mrs. Field: Being as ’m sending my 
order for chicks, I thought I'd tell you about 

~ 
the ones I got last year from you. I received | 
250 Austra Whites and Leg Rock pullets | 
April Ist. They started to lay in July and 
havé been laying good all winter, no slump 
in egg production even when it was 26 de- 
grees below zero. They can’t be beat for 
health and growth. I sold my 100 roosters 
at 14 weeks for $1.00 each alive.”—Mrs.
