Thrifty Chicken

I love this little bucket I got at that auction months ago. I bought it in a $1 pile, so I'm sure its portion was about 5cents worth!!!
I decided to do a little research on this item. I found an ad in a Farm Journal from 1900 for this product! Maybe this is a start to an  educational poultry post?!

  3. Yes, he started as a young boy. He and his dad have Winfield Livestock Auction in Winfield, KS(cattle sale every Wed) and we also have an Auction & Realty Company.(land, household and farm sales)
    We don't have sales that far north...usually closer to home.
