Beans As Sheep Feed 
When equal parts, by measure, of corn 
and oats, ground together, sells at $2.40 
per 100 lbs., what should beans be worth 
per 100 lbs. as feed for sheep ? c. E, K. 
Vermont. 
Beans would have about two-thirds the 
feeding value of a mixture consisting of 
equal parts, by measure, of ground corn 
and oats. For convenience, let us assume 
that the beans carry twice as much pro- 
tein as a mixture of corn and oats, and 
take into consideration the fact that the 
corn and oats mixture would carry nearly 
twice as much carbohydrate or energy, we 
can calculate that when the former is 
worth $2.40 per cwt. the latter will be 
worth $1.75 per cwt. You are reminded, 
however, that it is difficult to substitute 
one product for another in this instance 
on a pound for pound basis. Bean meal 
in itself is not palatable and should, of 
necessity, be mixed with either bran or 
oats. If combined in this manner the 
added protein would substantially supple¬ 
ment the feeding value of the mixture.

That is our offer onOldeTan Metal-to-Metal Harness. 
Never, until Olde Tan came into the field, was there 
such an offer on harness. 
We can make this offer only because in Olde Tan 
there is everything which can be put into a harness to 
make it absolutely the best. First, the finest leather 
that can be tanned. Then, this leather protected by 
metal so that metal stands all the see-sawing and rub¬ 
bing while the leather does the pulling. 
We don’t ask you to take our word that Olde Tan Metal- 
to-Metal Harness proved best in one of the greatest har¬ 
ness tests ever made. We let you take Olde Tan and keep 
it for 30 days and give it all the tests and trials you wish. 
If it stands up to what we tell you—if you find the leather 
the real old-fashioned tanned leather — if you find the 
harness wonderfully constructed, and the Metal-to-Metal 
features all we claim—keep it. If not, return it to us. We 
are making this offer because we know Olde Tan is su¬ 
preme as a harness and we want you to see it for yourself.

The Greatest Harness 
We’ve Ever Seen 
~Hnodre<!s of Farmer* 
Never have we had the pleasure of selling anything 
which has been received more enthusiastically than Old- 
Tan Harness. In addition to metal-to-metal construc¬ 
tion there is the heavy, tough, and scientifically tanned 
leather which is heavier than the leather used in any 
other harness. Olde-Tan leather is made only from 
the backs of selected and inspected hides. Metal-to- 
Metal Harness weighs more than any other harness 
because of the weight of the leather. The hardware is 
stronger and better than is used in any ordinary harness 
—better even than in harness costing much more than 
Olde-Tan. Don’t buy any harness until you see Olde-Tan.
