Office Funds
Here Boosted
Increasing appropriations for
the Agricultural Extension Ser
vice offices m Lancaster County
from $9,000 last year to $10,500
this year may. -provide needed
expansion in that county office.
County Commissioners this
week approved the funds—the
most ever granted that office —
and it in turn- may make pos
sible the addition of a second
home economist.
A request has been submitted
to Pennsylvania State University
by County'Agent Max M. Smith
for an to Miss Ruth
Kimble, home extension director
for the county.
“The increased appropriation,”
Mr. Smith said, “reflects recog
nition of the educational work
available through the Agricul
ture Extension Service, and we
are well pleased with the action
of the County Commissioners in
granting this incerase.”
The Pennsylvania State Univ
ersity has noted for some time
the need for added personnel m
the office here.

Give your chicks a Super-Start!
Your chicks should grow up to 5.4% faster on 7.6% less feed
jier pound of gain than ever before on Purina StartenaJ
Purina scientists have done-it again! They have improved
even last year's wonderful formula so much that you can see
the faster growth—the better coloring—the extra fine
feathering.
97% LIVABILITY. Last year over 11,000 folks who kept rec
ords on 2,364,891 chicks proved that they could get 97%
livability. That is 97 chicks raised out of every IQP bought.
> LOW IN COST. It costs so little to give your chicks a wonder
ful, start on Super Startena. Feed just 2 lbs. per small breed
chick or 3 lbs. for heavies. That is all it takes—just a few
pennies—to grow’ big, well-feathered young pullets about 5
weeks old.
Y Why take unnecessary chances with
disease when you can dp so much »
to protect their health for oply a
penny or two a chick. Disinfect
the brooder house with Purina
Disinfectant. Keep drinking water
safer with Purina Check-R-Tabs.
