FOR SUMMER
WITH huge British and home re-
quirements underpropping the
egg market `the year round, and
rationing of other meats turning at-
tention to poultry, it's both good
business and good patriotism to
start a batch of Summer chicks.
After hawks, etc., have taken
their toll on range, and you have
done some Fall culling, most laying
;houses are not filled right up to full
working capacity. Plan now to have
some real replacements coming
along to use that wasted space.
Bray Chicks, noted for "spizze-
rinktum", fast growth, early laying,
steady laying, make real replace-
ments—the kind you want... The
Bray Hatcheries will be turning
them out, on into the Summer.
Plan ahead.... Place your order
NOW, for later shipment.
