.. Baby Chick Feed.
in buying Poultry Feeds and especially for little chicks you must be
familiar with the food stuffs on sale, because there is a tendency on the
part of all inillers to work off grain flint is too poor to sell readily when
whole. Therefore It Is important to know what to buy, how and where.
This year 1 have. decided to make a little chick feed, composed of choice
grains and seeds, carefully selected and 111'~1'f11c1ly granulated and screen-
ed. I believe it is better than any bought from out. of town (although i
will buy any brand you may desire) and if you will call I shall be pleased
