Purina Chicken Chowder is a dry mash which contains just the ingredi- 

 ents to insure an abundance of eggs right through the Winter. Dry 

 Purina Chicken Chowder should be kept before hens all of the time. 

 The more Chicken Chowder Biddy eats the more eggs she will lay. Hens 

 should also have Purina Scratch Feed, two or three times a day, in a litter. 



Col. Purina guarantees 



More eggs or money 



to any poultry raiser who uses Purina Chicken Chowder according to 

 directions and fails to get more eggs. 



Purina Poultry Feeds are for sale by the leading dealers. Your dealer 

 will order them for you, if he doesn't already carry them in stock.
