THIS NEW JERSEY BREEDER RECEIVES $ A DOZEN FOR HIS SQUABS AND THE DEMAND IS SO GREAT THAT HE CANNOT FILL HIS ORDERS, SO BUYS MORE BIRDS. In sending my second order (January, 1907) for your Extra mated birds, I would like to put in a few words in regard to the birds I received from you in 1904. My birds have done finely. I sent to Boston S30 for 12 pairs. The birds arrived in the finest shape that was ever seen in this part of New Jersey. I received the, birds in May, 1904, and had eight pairs of squabs in July. I then went to work and kept all the squabs for a short time until they got six to seven months old, then I went to mating them the way you show in youi" Manual. I now in Jantiary, 1907, have ZOO birds which is only one-fourth of the birds I raised, but the demand for squabs was so great that I could not get the chance to save any for breeding. That is the reason why I send an order for 50 pairs of your best birds. My house is 12 feet wide and 26 feet long with a hall three feet wide, one window on the north side and three windows on the south side, with 200 nests.

I would like to tell you that I put one advertisemefit in a paper of our town some time ago, not to sell mv squabs for I had more orders than I could fill, but to let my friends know that i theant that there was money in handling your birds. The advertisement brought me so many orders that I didn't know what to do. The demand for squabs is so great that I get $ per dozen. My squabs average mne to 12 pounds to the doz
