MILK IN WINTER

Why do your COWS give less milk in
winter than they do in summer? Just
because nature does not supply them
with grasses and green food. But We
have come to the assistance of Dame
Nature with b. A. Thomas Stock
Remedy which contains the very in
gradients that the green feed supplies
in season, only, of course, in more
highly concentrated form. We guar
antce that this remedy will make your
