EGG-LAYING CONTEST 
■ 
■ 
Vineland. N. J. v A 
WEEK ENDING MAY 22, 1919. ^ 
A 100-Ton 
Concrete 
Silo will 
do it 
In no other way 
can you so great¬ 
ly increase the 
stock-raising and 
feeding capacity 
of your farm at 
so little cost. 
Many silos have paid 
for themselves in one 
season. After that 
they pay 100 per cent 
profit yearly. 
Build of Concrete 
because concrete is rotproof, 
ratproof, wind proof, fire¬ 
proof-permanent. 
Write our nearest District 
Office for free silo booklets.

RABBITS 
Two rules 
about chick feed 
Rule 1: Use the right ingred¬ 
ients properly balanced. 
Rule 2: Make it digestible. 
More than any other one 
thing, big loss among little 
chicks is due to indigestible 
food. 
H-O 
Steam-Cooked Chick Feed 
is steam-cooked because cook¬ 
ing makes the nutritious, fine- 
cut grains easily digestible by 
little chicks. The process is 
exclusive at our mill. 
Why experiment? Why 
take unnecessary loss or even 
risk ? 
H-0 Steam - Cooked Chick 
Feed is along-established suc¬ 
cess, on which you can safely 
depend. 
And now H-0 Steam-Cooked 
Chick Feed conies in a new, handy 
5-lb.carton. Durable, space-sav¬ 
ing, and just the right size to feed 
with. Look for the bright yellow 
5-lb. package. 
Your dealer can get it for you. 
Write for free sample, prices 
and descriptive folder.
