But what about COST of Shur-Gain compared with other feeds! !^If the cost of the feed to the producer is low
enough that he can obtain a reasonable degree of profit from his produce, then he will BENEFIT by. using such a feed.
We are now instituting another and entirely new method to REDUCE THE COST of our feeds to the feeder. We wish
to announce the installation of separate FEED BINS in our mill’where individual feeds are stored. You! supply your
own bags, we supply the bins and reduce the cost of the feed an amount equal to the cost of the new bags which is 20c
per cwt. or $4.00 per ton. Remember our feeds remain FRESH at ALL TIMES. Rarefy will the feed remain in the bin
over a- few days after which a fresh lot is prepared. AND HERE’S ANOTHER POINT. You can buy Shur-Gain feeds
in. ton lots on demand and lift one, two or five bags at one time, just as much as you require to keep the feed fresh.
Where can you buy HIGH QUALIT.Y FEEDS to compare with these now quoted at a NEW LOW PRICE

LOCAL BOYS FARE WELL
ON THE QUEEN ELIZABETH
The many people in Exeter and
district, whose .friends and relatives
came back on the giant Cunard
liner, Queen Elizabeth, might be in
terested in looking over the list of
groceries the Elizabeth takes on
when bringing the troops back. It’s
an impressive one.
For instance: If the ship’s cook
serves
would
supply the demand.Fifty thousand loaves of b,rread
baked aboard ship would fill ,a nice
sized box car. If the soldier was
blessed with 'Scoteh ancestors he’ll
likely want porridge for breakfast.
The Elizabeth’s answer to this is
90,0 0'0 pounds of oatmeal for one
trip.,
The 40,000 pounds of sugar re
quired for one sailing, if piled up
in jute bags would be the size of
a small haystack.
And it would take a flock of 300
hens laying the year round to supply
the 90,000 eggs required for the
boys, for the trip home,' with two
for breakfast per man.
Seven hundred good sized steers
would supply the meat. Enough
tea and coffee are required for two
million cups for the troops, not to
mention the crew of 800 men who
must be accounted for besides.
Fifteen thousand pounds of dried
beans, peas and split peas solve
some of the vegetable problem, with
an added 15,000 tins of canned
stuff.
