The FOOD tor Poultry In Winter

Much time and money have been spent
In what seems an almost vain endeavor-
to make hens produce eggs in cold wea-
Their 1t requires but little experience
with poultry to learn the fact that, under
ordinary circumstances, hens cannot pro-
duce as many eggs in winter as in sum
mer. Summer is the natural time for the
laying of eggs, and IN order to Increase
winter productions there must be repro
duced for the fowls as nearly as possible
conditions that exist in summer Walter
e. Crawford Of North Vassalboro, Me,
has apparently tried to do this, so far as
feeding his fowls is concerned. Here is
a letter from him: Pages Perfected
Poultry Food is better than you claimed
1t was and l would not try TO keep hens
another winter without It,"
Anyone sending his address on a postal
card to C. S. Page. Hyde Park, Vt, and
mentioning this apper will receive by
mail, free, postpaid, a sample package OF

OUR NATIONAL DANGER.

We rush through life without taking
time to eat, sleep or play, and as result
this is an age of Indigestion, nervousness,
irritability, sleeplessness and debility
The national danger is stomach weakness,
due to the strenuous life.
With the discovery of Mi-o-na. which
strengthens the stomach muscles and
stimulates secretion OF the digestive
juices so that the stomach does its work
as it should, there is no longer any ex-
cuse for indigestion.
Mona never fails to cure stomach
troubles, and is sold in 5O-cent boxes by
George f. Greene, with a guarantee to
refund the money If it does not give com
pete satisfaction
