. The national standard squab book. Pigeons. 1907 MORE STORIES OF SUCCESS 1908 WOULD NOT TRADE HIS PLYMOUTH ROCKS FOR ANY IN HIS MONTANA TOWN. I have had fair luck and in all the Homers in town from different companies, I would not trade the ones I got from you for any of them. Friday noon, April 12, by carelessness, some boy friends in going from the coop let one of my fine red checkers out, which I would not have parted with for S2.

The compact bodies, rich, healthy color and uniformity of size were a thorough surprise. I am going to follow your directions given in the Manual, and you may count on me as a customer to the extent of my means.—Mrs. M. F. C, Massachusetts.
