Fresh Eaas in Winter

The poultrymaR who can supply fresh
eggs in winter, when prices are high, has
a tremendous advantage over the one who
through ignorance or neglect has to
wait till summer, when the supply is
large, Not every one can do this, and no
one can do it unless he takes proper care
of his fowls and gives them food con-
tanning the essential egg producing ingre-
dents which, when running at large,
they can supply themselves to a large
extent in summer. There Is no better
substitute for winter use than Pages
