Baby Chicks 10c Each
—Will have some day old chicks Thursday, 10c each.
—Have some week old baby chicks at 12c each.
—Mixed chicks, good reds, 25c. Barred Rocks, 25c. Best
White Leghorns, 15c.
—THESE WILL MAKE GOOD LAYERS.
—Get early chicks if you want to raise pullets that will
lay. Why? Because the hen that lays in the winter is a
good egg producer. Any kind of an old hen will lay a few
eggs in the spring.
—THE HENS THAT LAY ARE THE HENS THAT
PAY, not only in the spring, but fall and winter when eggs
are high. My Leghorns that are hatched now, will lay in
June if properly cared for.
—WE DO CUSTOM HATCHING. Was overrun last
week. In order to get hatching done when you want it, bet-
ter speak for space.

Blessings never come singly. The
radio is a great assistant in bringing
these manifold blessings. In recount-
ing his Sunday activities, one good
church member informed a Herald man
Monday morning that he spent the
entire day in listening to sermons.
First, he taught his class in Sunday
school, heard his pastor deliver a very
good sermon, and then went home and
“tuned in.” During the course of the
afternoon, he heard a sermon over
the Star-Telegram Station, another
from the Record, a third from Dallas,
another fine sermon from Waco. One.
from Detroit, and Sunday night while
tuning in for a concert, encountered
another sermon. Verily, it was a Good !
