SAYS CHICKS BETTER THAN WE ADVERTISED Some people feel that Bray Chides s c ant possibly be as good as we claim they are. Well, "ask the man who owns one." Ask D. 1L Duchemin, of Riclgeview Poultry Farm, Myr- tle, Ont. Last year Mr. Duche- niin got tivo lots of chicks—one, lot of BRAY Chicks, one from another source. After raising the two lots and comparing them, he says the Bray lot were "Better birds. than you advertised". We DO make strong claims for Bray Chicks. But we can back every claim we make. And here's a customer who says that we could make even stronger claims and stili be en the safe side. This year, naturally, Mr. Duchemin came back for more Beak Chicks. On Feb. 4 he got 405. Five weeks later, he still had 399. Our 1936 catalogue describes the methods of egg selection, breeder selection, etc., which MAKE Bray Chicks "better than we advertise". Get one.. and study it. We believe it will pay you. W. FRED BRAY LIMITED CHICK HATCHERY Phone 246 Exeter, Ontario. LADIES!
