A British Product. The ideal Glass for Garden Frames, Poultry Houses and Chicken Brooders, etc. The new Windolite is very strong and tough—wind, snow, hail, etc., will not affect it. Poultry Farmers should note that the use of Windolite in the brooders saves the loss of 10 chicks out of every 100. Remodel vour present brooders into health houses, simply by installing Windolite frames. Hinge the frames to swing in, and to the side, or up under the roof when not in use. This ensures longer life.
