WinierEggs! 
See to it that there is song and 
cackle, scratch and action, going on in 
your poultry yard. 
That’s when the eggs come.

Dr. Hess Poultry 
PAN-A-CE-A 
See them get busy. It gives hens pep. 
Nux Vomica is what does it—that greatest 
of all nerve tonics. A Pan-a-ce-a hen can’t 
hold still. It’s her good feeling that makes 
her hop around. 
Pan-a-ce-a has Quassia in it to make hens 
hungry. Great combination! One makes them 
eat—the other helps them digest what they 
eat. 
No dormant egg organs when that com¬ 
bination gets to work on a hen’s system. You 
just get eggs—eggs. 
A Pan-a-ce-a hen is always a hungry hen— 
an industrious hen. She gets off the roost 
winter mornings, ready to scratch for her 
breakfast. 
Tell your dealer how many hens you have. 
There’s a right-size package for every flock. 
100 hens, the 12-lb. pkg. 200 hens, the 25-lb. pail 
60 hens, the 5-lb. pkg. 500 hens, the 100-lb. drum 
For fewer hens, there i3 a smaller package.

Lame Ducks 
I have some du"' i that were hatched 
last May. Two of them went lame in the 
Fall. One seems all right now. but the 
other can hardly get around. Could you 
tell me what is the trouble, what to feed 
them, and when they should lay? 
Walpole, Mass. w. k. h. 
Too highly concentrated food and too 
much of it is said to he the cause of leg 
weakness in young ducks. Aside from 
corn, ducks should have a mash of such 
ingredients as wheat bran and flour mid¬ 
dlings. with about 15 lbs. to the hun¬ 
dred of eornmeal, and plenty of cut green 
food, as green rye. clover, corn fodder, 
etc., mixed in. It should also contain 
one-tenth part beef scrap and one-twen¬ 
tieth part coarse sand. This is the mash 
recommended bv a former prominent duck 
raiser. Very likelv over-feeding may have 
been the cause of the trouble with your 
ducks. A young duck should begin to lay 
at about five months of age. M. B, D. 
Fine parents 
make better birds 
Feathers make pretty birds —none 
prettier than Kerr-bred poultry. 
But it is breeding that makes 
egg production. We point 
proudly to the heavy laying 
stock back of Lively Chicks. 
Every chick has a dam that 
passed rigid flock culling. She 
laid profitably or made potpie. 
We entered pens of our breeding 
in the big 1923 competitions— 
and they won. From pedigreed 
stock like this come our cock¬ 
erels to mate with pure-bred, 
farm-raised pullets, giving you 
Lively Chicks, bred to lay. 
Full count delivery, alive and 
vigorous, is guaranteed. We 
will refund or replace, if any 
should be lost in transit.
