I have enlarged my quartersand want to enlarge my flock have one pair setting and two pairs haveiust raised a pair each and are ready forbusiness —C. A.

I received to-day by mail a leg-bandoutfit complete, with which I am very muchpleased, and wish to thank you very muchfor same. If at any time I can do anythingfor you, dont hesitate to acquaint me of it,as I would like to show my appreciation foryour generous and honorable dealings withme. My pigeons are all doing finely and Ihave quite a bunch of fine young you again for your kindness andextraordinary promptness.—W. G., NewJersey. SICK BIRD REPLACED. I received yourpostal today and was agreeably surprised tohear that you are willing to replace our sickbird. I hardly expected to receive suchhonest treatment. It is a relief to find anhonest man these days. That bird we wishto replace is a hen. All the other birdsare getting along finely.—, Massachusetts. LETTERS FROM CUSTOMERS RECEIV
