the absence of rain humming birds use
the dewdrops in early morning. In
closer captivity this bird bathed in a
gladiolus blossom. Hereafter a pitcher

which was accustomed to drinking
pweetened water from a spoon one day
found water in the spoon instead of
sweets, whereupon she at once alight

The Most Economical to Feed
feeders that means only digestible protein, fat and carbohydrates
in proper proportions, but that's only the beginning. It takes
more than that just to build the animal — it takes phosphorus
for brain and bone and nerve—it takes lime to make a frame
work that will carry a strong and efficient body, and it takes
both lime and phosphorus to make milk,
But a scientifically balanced, highly digestible ration isn't
enough —it’s got to be appetizing, and that's what the ““Sucrene,”
the sugar part of Sucrene Dairy Feed does—it makes the cow en-
joy eating and she digests her food all the better because she has a
good taste in her mouth,
A trial will convince you that Sucrene Dairy
Feed is a profit maker for your herd,
