Dr. Corson will also tell you of a new enzyme and bacteria spray which his company is developing which is a great help to soil and plants, holding more moisture in soil through cation exchange, plants readily absorb and store dew, less ram and irrigation is needed, and soil nutrients are released. Instead of cleaning afterbirth from cows and treating sick livestock and poultry, Dr. Corson wants to do the world more good by prevention.

He watches for good growth, properly placed feet and legs - those which aren’t set too straight and show a little “bounce” to them. He feeds a 16 per cent protein ration in generous amounts to en courage good growth and ' proper development. To Illustrate what he meant, Parlett pointed out a few of his animals, which lazily relaxed in their dry and dusty surroundings. Although the grand cham pion boar was no longer part of the herd, his former owner remembered him. “He weighed 355 pounds and was seven months old when I sold him,” Parlett announced. And he stood tall enough to be belt-high. Of all the traits he looks for, Parlett isn’t quite sure about the height. But so far judges have singled out the tall individuals, and doing well in the show circuit means bringing something in which the judges want to see. So Parlett tries to guess what the judges will want next. He personally believes pigs might be being bred too tall, and he has heard complaints from a number of com mercial men who make the same claim. It’s a changing situation it has been over the years and Parlett ex pects that to continue. But for just once, anyway, he has managed to come up with the top prize, and he has his sights set for more.

The product, called Bull’s Eye, is an economical protective eye patch made of a tough, yet soft, non irritating material that SLASHED ON UNI-LOADERS. cannot afford to be without one. A. L. HERR & BRO. guards the infected eye from irritants such as insects, tall grass, brush and sunlight, eliminating the need for confinement and allowing medication to work more effectively and longer for fast healing. After medication and the Bull’s Eye patch are applied, the infected animal can be returned to pasture or lot without fear of disease spreading or not healing. Bull’s Eye has a built in tab handle that makes adhesive dispensing and application easier. The patch is made of a soft material formed into a cup shape that keeps the patch away from the eye and from irritation caused by rubbing. One universal size fits all breeds, adults or calves. Several application adhesive comes with the kit and will hold the patch fir mly during the healing period. After this period the adhesive loses its bonding strength and the patch falls off naturally. Bull’s Eye is packaged in kits containing 10 patches and one tube of adhesive. The farmers’s efficiency is so great that he can produce on five acres about three times as much wheat as you can eat, twice as much rice, about 40 percent more cotton and soybeans than you can use, and a fourth more feed grains than it takes to feed the livestock and poultry producing your meat, milk, and eggs.
