Moulting time is the time that a hen needs assistance. She is weak, run¬ 
down and out of sorts generally. It is the off-season in the life of the hen. 
Think of the amount of a hen’s energy, vitality and red blood that’s re¬ 
quired to reproduce a thousand feathers! (which is only an average plumage). 
A moulting hen needs good health, good appetite and good digestion. 
That’s just what Poultry Pan-a-ce-a does for a moulting hen—gives her 
appetite and good digestion, so that she’ll eat more and digest more. 
Dr. Hess Poultry 
PAN-A-CE-A 
Helps your poultry through the moult.—And starts your pullets and moulted 
hens to laying. 
It contains Tonics that produce appetite and good digestion—Tonics that 
tone up the dormant egg organs—Iron that gives a moulting hen rich, red 
blood and a red comb: It contains Internal Antiseptics that destroy disease 
germs that may be lurking in the system. 
No disease where Pan-a-ce-a is led 
Pan-a-ce-a helps your poultry to stay at par during the moult. They don’t 
become run-down, pale and thin. That’s why a Pan-a-ce-a hen gets back 
on the egg job quickly instead of sitting around all fall and winter as a bill 
of expense while regaining her normal vitality. 
Always buy Pan-a-ce-a according to the size of your flock. Tell your dealer 
how many fowls you have. He has a package to suit. Good results guaranteed. 
30c, 75c, and $1.50 packages. 25 lb. pail, $3.00. 100 lb.
