Don’t Neglect Your 
Half Grown Pullets 
Hundreds of thousands of dollars 
are lost yearly by poultry raisers in 
eggs their hens might have laid - but 
did not. 
This is a loss due to the mistaken 
idea that half grown pullets can be 
neglected until they begin laying. If 
your pullets are to start laying at an 
early age and be consistent pro¬ 
ducers in the fall and winter months 
when eggs are at their highest price, 
they must be fed now. 
A special growing mash like GLOBE 
GROWING MASH is absolutely 
necessary. It is a indispensable unit 
in poultry feeding. GLOBE-GROW¬ 
ING MASH is based on experience 
and expert knowledge of poultry 
nutrition. Contains food elements 
that make for 
healthy growth 
sturdy frames, 
firm flesh and 
and egg laying 
vigor. 
That’s why 
we sell it.

NITRATE OF SODA —Largely used to produce a quick growth, 
especially in Garden Crops, bringing them on very rapidly, 
but it is of no permanent value as a Fertilizer. Also used to 
stimulate the growth of grass in the spring and as a top 
dressing for Vegetables, but it should be used very lightly, 
not over 100 pounds to the acre. Prices fluctuates. Present 
prices— Per lb., 10c; 5 lbs. 30c; 50 lbs. $1.15; 100 lbs. $2.10; 
per ton $40.00. 
PREPARED AGRICULTURAL LIME— This Lime is very 
valuable for use on Alfalfa and all other grass and grain 
crops. It corrects acidity in the soil, decomposes vegetation 
quickly, loosens up heavy stiff lands, binds together light 
sandy soils, makes available dormant plant food, phosphoric 
acid and potash. Much less is required per acre than burnt 
rock lime and limestone, and much better results are ob¬ 
tained from its use, as this lime contains 4 per cent of potash.
