Who Feeds the World

Wheat il not undisputed king, nor
cotton either. The egg cro D last wear
was worth about 500, 069, 900. The
bulk of the poultry is prodr :ed msinly
by the work of women and children.
The supply from the specialized poultry
farms is small compared to that from
the farms where women care for the
fowls and children gather the eggs.
The hand that rocks the cradle does its
full share in feeding the world.

Be personal in your adver-

Make your advertising as
much a part of yourself as
your business is. Have it
distinctive and characteristic,
as dignifled as you are. as
