Can't Get Along without pages Perfected
Poultry Food"


Poultrymen should be careful to dis
criminate between Pages Perfected
Poultry Food and the various "condi-
ton powders" with which the market is
flooded nowadays. 1t is not medicine
in the strict sense of the word. but an
honest food which, if the fowls are other
wise properly cared for, will return the
poultryman more than 200, per cent
profit. Mrs. H. H. Blanchard of Browns
vile, VT, expresses the common senti-
ment of users of this food. She says: 81
have tried and fed Pages Perfected
Poultry Food for two years and am now
feeding it. Will say that keep from Is

A Savings Bank Conducted on Right
PRINCIPLES.

The Bristol Herald believes that the
Hyde Park Savings Bank is conducted
on right principles and gives its reasons
in the following language:
The Lamoille County Savings Bank
and Trust Co. of Hyde Park is one of
Vermont's banking institutions that is
worthy of increased patronage from the
citizens Of the state. It's money is loaned
to residents of the state to foster and in
crease Vermonts institutions and in
dustries. The fact that it has just passed
the million dollar mark in assets shows
that it is conducted on right principles.
The state needs more such banks.
The Bank pays 4 per cent compounded
emi-annually on deposits of 500 or
more, remaining in the bank one full year.
