DISTRIBUTED BY Exchange It is difficult to believe, isn't it 7 High speed plowdown ' would definitely indicate a dry, broadcast fertilizer And everybody knows that dry fertilizer ingredients have different shapes and densities and that they tend to segregate during handling and application The result uneven, unreliable plant feeding, at best, reduced yields and profits, at worst Well, would you believe UNIPELS 7 UNIPELS have all three primary nutrients nitrogen, phosphorus, and potash chemically combined in precise ratio in each pellet! You couldn’t segregate the nutrients if you tried What s more, every pellet has the same shape and density for the most uniform distribution possible when applied ftom a broadcast-type spreader And, no more trouble regulating spreader flow The result a balanced, controlled diet for every plant in the field Come see us and learn more about the speed, ease, and effectiveness of UNIPELS It II make a believer out of you l • New Holinnd (Continued fiom Pa.'c 2) 3" Bulls 15.3 180, IKileis 1.30 173 lIORs, RS Mai eh 3,10 GO Receipts of 107 lirr sos sold sliongei ‘Mules (single) 175 530, (pans) 530 1000, Woik hoises (single) 175280, (pans) 485 550, Riding hoises 110 380 Duving hoises 110-270 Pony inaies 20 30, Geldings 15 25, Kill us 8k 9k.

Care Of Hoises Horses like action and should not be shut up during the win ter months Closely confined horses are likely to adopt such stable vises as wood chewing and wind sucking. If the horse cannot be turned out daily in an exercise lot, or if he is not rid den several times each week, he could be allowed to run circles around the owner at the end of a long rope. Without exercise a horse can get fat and flabby and develop weak feet and legs Limited amounts of gram may be fed daily and liberal amounts of top qaulity hay that is dust free. Many horses and ponies are bought for the pleasure of the family during the summer months, and is almost forgotten during the winter months Good horse husbandry calls for atten tion for the entire year, not just during the riding season. Magnolia and cypress trees were common in Euiope many centimes ago, but weie killed off by the ice sheets The thinking man looks at the motive that piompted a deed, before judging the iesult.
