Nothing handles manure like an Allis-'
Chalmers No. 110 Manure Spreader. Don’t
buy any spreader until you’ve seen for
yourself how easy it loads—from the rear
or sides, with no arches or beaters to block
the way. See what a good job of shredding
and even spreading it does.
Stop at our store, or call us, for full in

Egg money is BIG MONEY
when you feed fag
The selection, oihthe proper feed, is a major factor
in the operation of a successful poultry business. The
kind, Quality, and balance of the nutrients in the feed
given the chickens determine how well the flock will
grow, develop and lay
As a chick, a hen needed a feed with, a high,
growth factor and a capacity for crealmg disease resis
tance As a pullet, she needed feeds to help develop
her body As a layer a hen needs high energy feeds
that provide the nutritional requirements under the
strain of heavy laying
Your egg profits will jump when you start feed
ing Red Rose Laying Mash. The high energy nutrients
in Red Rose Laying Mash gives layers a perfect diet—
and they produce at high rates
Make your egg money big money - feed Red Rose
