Additional Information

The American Baby Chick Producers Association in Chicago was a group of individual agriculture professionals hatching eggs for sale to local individuals and chicken farms. Members used the endorsement of the association to increase their reputation and their business at conferences and in newspaper ads. In the 1929 Department of Commerce report—two years after this member was recognized for 25 years of service—this association consisted of 400 members within the Chicago area.
