There are more apples in this locality 
than last year. The Baldwins are especially 
heavy, while the Greenings are very light. 
There is also a light crop of Fall apples. 
I have not heard of any prices as yet, and 
as you probably know, the average in this 
belt is very light. We have a normal grape 
crop here, and the indications favor a good 
price, although I have not heard of any 
offers. w. d. h.

I want the privilege of sending a 60-day supply of Sal-Vet (my famous worm-destroyer 
and conditioner) to every man who owns sheep, hogs, cattle, horses or mules. I want you to see for yourself how it rids 
all farm stock of the deadly stomach and free intestinal worms—how it will stop your losses from worms and solve your 
stock-raising problems—how it will make 
your stock thrive better—keep healthy 
and free from disease. In making this 
offer I don’t ask one penny from you, 
now or at any other time, unless Sal -Vet 
does all I claim. 
Worms rob you of your stock-profits—keep your ani¬ 
mals thin and out of condition—steal their food—sap their strength 
and vitality and make them easy victims of disease. I’ll rid your 
stock of these pests. I’ll prove it before you pay.
