BRAT. CHICKS EVERT SEAW
SINCE 1928-“GREAT RESULTS”
UR chicks have been bought from Bray’s every year since 1928,
and we have had great results/" writes Mrs, R, M. Scrambler,
R.R, 5, Dunnville, Ont, ’‘They are easy to rsise and full of vitality
from the first day. They develop into n«ce large birds, and! certainly
know how to lay the eggs, especially when the prices are highest in
the Fall, We know they are .real money-makers. Pur egg buyer re
marks about so many large eggs every week the year round,
“We start off with Jhe right kind of chicks, and know that results
will come later, Bray birds are like me—-busy all the time!”
Mrs. James O’Connor, R.R, 4,
Milton, Ont., has been buying
Bray chicks for 7 straight years,
and her order is in for 1940. Last
Spring she started 1,100 Bray
chicks—so you can see that poul
try isn’t just a small sideline with
her, but a real business. “What I
like about them,” Mrs. O’Connor
tells us, “is the way they keep the
nests busy,”
yet.” Mrs.-
Bray chicks
last Spring,
through the
growing period was just 8—one
less than her “extras.”
Mrs. J. C. Switzer, R.R, 1, Nor-
val, Ont,, has been buying Bray
chicks for 8 years. “Last year's
lot,” she tells us, “were laying be
fore they were 5 months old, and
laid lots of good big eggs .all Fall
and Winter. I made good money
out of my cockerels, top.”

“We’ve been buying Bray chicks
for 7 years,” Mrs. G. E. Apple

When people who depend on poultry for a good part of their living
buy chicks from the same hatchery year after year, like this, you, can
just “bet your bottom dollar” that the chicks from that hatchery must
have been doing a real job for them. If you’re in poultry to make
money, we believe you can’t do better than take a tip from these ex
perienced poultry people, and buy Bray chicks this year. Yes—we can,
give you early delivery.
