HOG CHOLERA
The Hog worm is the most
Dangerous foe of the Hog

In almost every outbreak Of chol-
era you will find the hogs very
wormy. They get hog out of con-
dition and unthrifty. Then he is
an easy prey to disease. The Snoddy
will destroy every character
of hog worm. Even the liver and
lung worm, which are the most
dangerous, are easily destroyed with
the Snoddy Remedy. Ten cents
worth of the Snoddy Remedy will
clear out the worms and purify the
blood of hundred pound shoat, so
that he will be worth one dollar or
more in a few weeks than he would
have gained without this remedy.
Can't you afford to invest ten
cents per head to make your shoats
worth dollar per head more than
they will without this little invest
ment? Then'why waste time and feed
on wormy runty hogs when it is easy
to have them thrifty? 1t also pre-
vents and cures Hog Cholera. Any
practical farmer can stop the worst
outbreak of cholera that ever came
with it and restore his herd to thrift
in few days time.
1t is used and endorsed by the lead
ling hog raisers of the country
