Dear Sir:-
My little book, a copy of which /
sent you some months ago, has made
a great hit throughout the world. 1t
may interest you to know that,
among other acknowledgements, I
have had requests for extra copies
throughout the world, including Can
ada, England, Cuba, Japan and even
far-off Calcutta, India, and Johannes
burg, South Africa.
In this, my July bulletin, / desire
merely to urge you to urge all of
your poultry raising customers to
properly care for their chickens DUR
ing the hot weather. It is so easy to
let things slide; to finish up the gar
dening with a scythe, and to finish up
the chickens in the Fall, with a lot Of
scrubby, backward, lousy birds that
will scarcely pay their keep during the
winter.
The new book "The Lee Way of
which / sent you a copy last month is
being mailed out to all names on our
lists and / viii like it If you will also
arrange a distribution frmo your
store.
Read the book and learn how all
must work together for profit, all
down the hne--SOr the poulterer, for
you, and for me.
Some people think the poultry sup
ply season is over in June, but it is
then only just begun for those who
look ahead.
