During practically my entire life have been engaged in farming, although for a time have done other work successfully. I received my education in the Walker County country schools After l finished school, at the solicitation and recommends tion of my neighbors and friends, I taught school in the eastern section of county. mention this fact for the information and because I feel that no man should hold office, especially which entails much clerical work, unless he has a fair educa- ton.

Fishel. Famous Poultry Breeder

Makes Test on 30 of the Famous Fishel White Plymouth Rocks
Worlds largest and best known poultry breeder says Don Sung increased egg yield and improved health of the hens

T had been hearing a. lot about Don Sung, so felt I owed it to n.y. self and my thousands of poultryrais- ing friends to try it out. I find" says MT. Fishel, that the value of Den Sung has not been over-stated a bit-it is a wonderful and very beneficial tonic."
 What MT. Fishel (of the great Fishelton Farms at Hope, Indiana) says about Don Sung is contained in the following letter, giving the report of his own personal test:
 ,"We had heard quite bit about Don Sung as an egg producer, so nat urally aUere interested as ace dltUayS are in anything thdt is benefcidl to the poultry industry. We aoent to our druggist and purchased c SI package of Don Sung. Then selected c flock of thirty of our noted White Plymouth Rock hens and bullets, birds that had in c aCdy let up' on their usudl egg production. The thirty hens and bullets tCere prodnc- ing tico eggs. q day, lchen ire began, feeding Don Sung. In thirty days the flock had increased to eighteen to taoenty-ta0O eggs dag and yesterday q yield of floentyjOnr eggs aoas re ported.
