Experience in the Use Of Poultry
Foods.

Experience is the best teacher
every time. 1t is fortunate that all do
not have to go through the same ex-
perience. Some can have the benefit
of that which others have gone
through. 1t is not necessary that
every poultry keeper should use all
the various foods that are on the mar
ket, in order to learn which is the
best and most reliable. He can rely
somewhat on the experience Of those
who have used them Charles A. Han
cock, Barre, Mass, says: Il have used
Pages Perfected Poultry Food the
past year with great success and
would not be without It. 1t certainly
is an egg producer"
If you want to know more about this
food and the best ways of using It,
write to C. S. Page, Hyde Park, Vt,
for his booklet, Profitable Poultry"
