NOTICE

We are now handling a complete
line of Eshelman's Poultry and
Chick Feeds. We have carried
their complete line of Dairy Feeds
for the last four years, and during
last year we sold and delivered over
goo tons of these feeds. There must
be a good reason for this large ton
age of Dairy Feeds, and we think
that the same good reason will APP
ply to Eshelman's complete line OF
Poultry and Chick Feeds. We are
stocking them, this season, for the
first time, and ask you to let us ex-
plain the advantages and the saving
to you, in using these feeds for
baby chicks, growing stocks and
layers.
