Dear Bill:

Thank you for your very interesting letter. I’m in sort of a hurry with schedule of judging of agricultural fairs this time of year so this will be short.

Enclosed is a copy of the American Poultry Historical Society newsletter where I referred to your book #2. Also, enclosed is a copy of the recent Bantam circular I mentioned to you. We also have a new one out on waterfowl. If you are interested, I can send you a copy of that.

Under separate cover I’m sending you a copy of American Poultry History 1823-1973. Please accept it with my compliments.

Sincerely yours,

John L. Skinner
Poultry and Small Animal Specialist
