GOOD PROFIT FROM
ONE REGISTERED HOG
Mr. A. M. Pace Received $250 From
One Berkshire
A total of $250 is the amount re
ceived by Mr. A. M. Pace from one
registered Berkshire sow dpripg the
past i|'hat ig the best record yet
, reported, and shows what can be done
| with pure bred bop.
In February eight pigs were far
rowed, arid five of these were sold ah
$5 each foi* it total of ss(l, rind three
turned out 450 pounds of meat, which
at 20 cents pound amounted to S9O.
In September eight pigs were farrow
ed and five of these were sold for $65,
and Mr. FaCO now has three on hand
which are worth $46,
Mr. Pace has made a specialty of
raising Berkshire hogs and Jersey
cows and he is convinced these are
two of the best all round breeds one

and cows for sale. He has made a suc
cess of the livestock business and his
example is worthy.of emulation.
FEED OUT YOUR HOGS SIX
WEEKS EARLIER
In every lot of hogs on feed two or
three weeks quickly and actually eat
less than others. If all would fatten
like these, the entire drove would be
ready for the market six weeks
earlier and to save six weeks feed is
an item that you fully understand.
The hog that fattens easily must be
in prime physical condition. The bS
A Thomas’ Hog Powder is a condi
tioner for hogs. It keeps their system
clean and healthy and enables them
to fatten quickly without falling prey
to the usual diseases of hogs. The B.
A. Thomas' Hog Powder is not stock
food. It’s straight medicine and we
took the agency because it enables
you to f#6d out your hogs much ear
lier.
