IN LOVING MEMORY OF ROBERT B. gambrill In MemoWam Not as the sun when its course is run And it westward fades away, Did the one we love go up above, For ’twas ere the noon of day, That the Master came and called this name, And said “I have need of thee” And Bob replied as he willingly died ‘‘Thy will be done in me.” For the gates ajar as he crossed the bar, Was the sight that caught, his eye, And just within, where there is no sin, » And none shall ever die Stood his Master dear, He' had naught to fear. From the Lord of Love and Light For He said ‘‘Well done, you have glory won You have trusted and done the •right . For down on earth you had second birth, 9 My love had filled your soul And now with me you shall perfect be Your faith has made thee whole. Let your loved ones know who are down below, And on the gospel feed, That I needed you wrho are good and true, My cherubims to lead. So he sings up there with a soul so fair, And he plays upon his harp; While we upward gaze and count the days, Till we too, shall depart. For within the gates we know He waits Till our souls in .Heaven arrive, And each time we kneel, we keener feel, Bob is not dead, but alive. By Kenneth McMillan, Palmerston ■5 PROFIT IN CHICKS . A profit of $1005.00 in four months from a flock of 700 Large Type White .Leghorns, $6.75 profit over feed: cost in four months. This is the record by one of our customers H. W. Krafit, of Dash­ wood. Over half of these hens were year olds and older or the re­ cord would have been muclh better. Financially proven records like tihe one above should prove that it pays to buy chickis from Trap Nested tStock and that the Breeding work we are doing with our Large Type Leghorns: is giving results. There is good money in Poultry if you start right with a good strain and handle thein properly. The above record made by Mr. Kraft, is absolutely a true statement and if any of you have any doubt in your mind regarding this statement write to Mr, Kraft and he will .assure you this is correct. IT PAYS TO START CHICHjS EARLY. Feed good, yet cheap­ ly and use. good judgment and manage them properly. The Earl­ ier you get your chicks the “more” profit there is. April and May 4 Chicks will make you a good profit. Marclh Chicks will make you more, and February Chicks still more. The above statement proves this. Mr. Krafts’ Chicks were hatched last week in February last year and the has placed his osier for 1,000 February 25th this year. The Chicks we keep for ourselves, will all be February hatched. Broilers,- There is good monejf’ in Early hatched. Broilers. Our Early hatched Broilers always jsell at 18 to 20 c. a lb. and bring around 50c. each live weight agpund 12 weeks old. We are raising about 5,,000 this year. The Broilers from a flock of early hatched will pay .for the cost of thqfchicks’ feed and coal till the time they ar^ sold. You have the pallets for your work. . High Quality Feeds,— The Feeds thatfwe sell are exactly the same asJj8ecT to own Poultry, To nmke the most profit feed good fegd^ft the cheap­ est price.
