THE KIND OF VACCINE
 STOCKMEN SHOULD USE
Phoenix. May T. 1920.

Phoenix, May T, 1920. TO STOCKMEN OF ARIZONA:
 Our attention has been called di- rectly and indirectly to circular let ter which has been scattered broad cast throughout the state by the O.. M. Franklin company, manufacturers of Germ-free Blackleg Vaccine (Ag- gressin). This letter is addressed to instance of cattleman in Texas, who after vaccinating his herd lost some calves, but after re-vaccinating with the O. M. Franklin vaccine has not lost an animal. It also advises the stockmen to beware of inferior vac cines and serums which sell at less price than that put out by the O. M. Franklin company (40 cents per dose), and to take no chance on any product other than theirs.
 To any one familiar with the'differ- ent methods of advertising, this let ter would instantly be recognized as that coming from company which is suffering a blow somewhere in its organization. But because the stock men are busy with affairs foreign to that of advertising, and can judge on- ly by the evidence laid before them; and because we have received letters of inquiry from all over the state from people wishing to be advised on the subject; and because we have had stockmen call at our office relative to the above mentioned letter, we feel it our duty to write this letter to all the stockmen for their information.
 All Germ-free Vaccine (Aggressin) is made by the same formula under government supervision. Therefore. it takes no explanation to understand that it must necessarily be alike in quality at the time it leaves the labor atory. However, the manner of handling the vaccine after it leaves the laboratory has much to do with its effectiveness. It is imperative that it be fresh, and for that reason we re- ceive only small quantities at time These shipments are kept in a cool, even temperature in order to impair none of it's potency.
 The Blackleg Vaccine (Aggressin) handled bv this office is the product of Park, Davis & Company, of De- troit, Michigan, company universal ly known, and established since 1866; company whose products are known everywhere for their purity and ef- fectiveness. This company experi- ments in it's laboratories-it does not use the public for that purpose. When product is placed on the market bearing it label, that product can be accepted as the last word in its line The experimental stage is passed; it is ready for the market. backed by the Parke, Davis X Company-a recom- mendation in itself. -,-,
 This office is handling vaccine for the sole purpose of saving the cattle men money, thereby encouraging ave- cination. We hold a contract with Parke, Davis & Company for large amount of vaccine, to be sold during the year of 1920. The price of 12 cents per dose is based on this con- tract. Realizing that blackleg is serious menace to the stockmen of Arizona, we in their interest and at the solicitation of many of the repre- sentative cattlemen, have endeavored to procure one of the highest grade and most effective vaccines on the market, at a price within the reach of all.
 Covering a period of three years, thousands of doses have been sent out the state by the Livestock Sanitary Board, and we have yet to receive single complaint.
 We have placed the essential details before you in order that you may bet ter judge why the circular letter was written. Our advice to you is to fully | investigate before you pay 40 cents | Or 12 cent vaccine.
 Respectfully,
