Egg prices promise to be better next winter than they have been, The best authorities on poultry tell us there were not nearly as many chicks hatched this year as last. It looks as though with good crop prospects, feed prices might be cheaper and so we firmly believe there will be more profit in EGGS next year than there has been this year. Don’t overlook these June hatched chicks. Wihile you may not get all of the best prices this fall, with reasonable good care these June hatched Pullets should be laying heavy by November and December and keep on going. Be sure the chicks you buy have good breeding. They all look nearly alike when they are hatched, but what will they do when they grow up? Remember Lakeview Leghorns are trap-nested 3 65 days in the ■year* .under R.O.P. Government supervision. They are much larger than the ordinary kind. Lay larger eggs grading nearly all A Large after only a few weeks of laying, If there is any doubt in your mind as to the quality of our stock ask some of the people who have bought from us. K.
