An egg laid for 

 m^rv yolk made 



Most hens lay less 

 than half of the 

 yolks that are formed 

 because white el- 

 ements are lacking in 

 the grain feed they 

 eat. Wheat, corn, oats, barley, and kafir contain (above bodily 

 maintenance) an average of 224 yolks and only 154 whites. The excess yolks 

 which are absorbed by the hen, mean not only fewer eggs, but they form fat 

 which cuts down egg production.

Note the perfect balance and the large quantity of white and yolk elements 

 supplied. 



More eggs or money back 



The money paid for Purina Chicken Chowder will be refunded if hens do not lay more eggs 

 when fed Purina Chicken Chowder as directed with Purina Scratch Feed than when fed any 

 other ration. You take no risk. 99 out of 100 hens 



eat too much grain which cuts down egg production. (f) ^ m 4V 



Feed the perfect balance — 100 lbs. of Purina Scratch 

 Feed to each 100 lbs. of Purina Chicken Chowder 

 and you will actually use less feed and get more eggs. 

 Sold only in checker-board bags by the leading 

 dealers. If your dealer cannot supply you, send us 

 his name.
