It is our firm belief that everyone depending on their health and abili­ ty to. be on the JOB, particularly the main, provider for the family, should carry protection to maintain an income, if through misfortune by an accident or ill health they are unable to continue their duties. Our 'Company has been a leader in income protection for ovei’ 45 years and has already paid more than $118'5,000,000, to Policyholders in benefits. Our contracts provide the broadest protection it is pos­ sible to secure. Benefits commenc­ ing from the first day of disability and continuing as long as you are disabled, even if it should be for the balance of your life. We also include liberal benefits if you are confined to the hospital. t Ask ms for more, complete details t at once, you may be the' next person to be disabled in your community. Yoh will 'be surprised at the protec­ tion we give for such small premium?, especially accident, which may be purchased separate’from sickness if ypu wish.* ♦ * C. J.

ASK US! j ———d ‘Get-Rich- -Quick?' No, it’s not a get-rich q’hick pro­ position. Bpt -it’s good business, this year, to start as many good chicks as you have accommoda­ tion for . . • good business, and good practical patriotism. Remember, on the one hand, how Britain and the Canadian forces both at Britain and at home depend on US for the food they cannot carry on without, ,, on the other hand, how this urgent demand has raised the price of eggs by 7 to IO cents per dozen above the level of recent years. From both standpoints, it’s worth thinking about, and doing? something about. Important Any Time — Especially Now When you’re choosing chicks at any time of year, but especially from now on, it's important to keep in mind what Prof. W. R. Graham calls “spizzer- inktum”. Some people call it ginger, some call. it punch, vi­ gor, vitality, pep, drive, snap and go! Whatever you call it. it’s important. Your chicks just have to have it if you are to get real livability and fast growth in hot weather, early full de­ velopment so that your pullets lay early and keep on laying, and your cockerels put on the size and the meat, In all our breeding and selec­ tion we keep this point in mind, Hatchery Exeter Phone 246 or John St. N., Hamilton Ontario Agents: Canada Packers, Exeter; Alvin W.
