Hog producers know thei*e is more to hog production than
grain feeding alone. They recognize the fact that it takes
3100 lbs. of straight grain to finish a hog in 7% to 8 months.
But when only 50 lbs. of SHUR-GAIN Hog C oncentrate is
added to their ration, only 650 lbs. of grain are needed and
hogs finish better, with higher grades in only 6 months of
feeding.

HOW TO WRITE
A GOOD WANT AD
1— It’s always best to start your advertisement with the
name of the article or service you have to offer,
2— Be clear. Readers respond, more quickly when given
definite information.
3— Make .it easy for the prospect to reach you. Always
insert your name and address or your telephone num
ber, if you do not have regular hours give preferred
time to have prospects contact you.
4— To secure the greatest reader attention for your ad
vertisements, use consecutive insertions. A three-week
order is the best and the cheapest.
5— Place yourself in the reader’s position and ask your
self what you would like to know about your offer.
The answer you give will make a good Want Ad.
6— Want Ads that fail to bring satisfaction do so, not
through any lack of being read, but because they are
carelessly worded and do not contain enough infor
mation to get prompt action.
7— Place your advertisement in the Times-Advocate where
you reach this region’s greatest Want Ad audience.

Skin infections Often
Cause For Unhappiness
Are you ashamed of your appearance because
of a skin rash, boils, pimples or other skin affections 1
(too few people realize that these affections may
be easily remedied. Impurities in the blood may
often be the cause for ugly sldn affections.
To get relief from skin troubles, boils and
pimples, try Burdock Blood Bitters. This vegetable compound acts on
the bowels, kidneys, liver and stomach. It helps to eliminate wastes from
the system. The result may be a Smoother, clearer skin.
B.B.B. has brought relief to thousands of other Canadians suffering
from skin affections. It should do the same for you. Ask for it at any
ding counter. Specify Burdock Blood Bitters,

Fifteen minutes later the farmer

“One of your boys needs attention.
He’s pulling up all my turnips and

Deceiving Appearances

clubs.
“If you’re returning to camp,
Jones,” said the officer, “would you
mind putting these clubs in my
office for me?”
“Certainly, sir,” answered Jones,
slinging them over his shoulder. A
little nearer the camp he met the
colonel.
“Good morning, sir;” Jones said,
saluting smartly.
“Morning, Jones,” answered the
colonel genially. “Been lor a round
of golf?”
“Oh, no, sir; I’ve been having a
hair-cut.”
“Fourteen days for insolence!”
bawled the colonel.
The Weed of the Week
—(HICKORY—
®
Chicory, sometimes referred to
as “Blue Devil” is a noxious peren
nial weed with a long, thick, tap
root, found growing usually along
roadsides, fence lines, in -old pas
ture fields and vacant lots. It may
sometimes appear in a grain field,
particularly where plowing or culti
vation has not been thorough.
Chicory grows from one to three
feet high, and the stems are almost
leafless, slightly hairy, with numer
ous flowers along the stem. Flow
ers are bright blue in colour, about
1% inches in diameter, and are
usually closed by noon.
This weed begins to flower dur
ing July and continues until frost.
It has the unfortunate ability to
send up new shoots quickly after it
has been cut off, and in two or
three weeks time will again be in
bloom. An average plant will pro
duce 3,000 seeds, and these are fre
quently found as an impurity in
clover and grass seeds.
Chicory is spreading rapidly over
the Province of Ontario, and is
classified as a noxious weed under
the regulations of both the Weed
Control Act and the Seeds Act.
Action should be taken to destroy
this weed wherever it is found. In
cultivated fields, a short rotation
of crops, including deep, thorough
after-harvest and fall cultivation,
will soon cause it to disappear.
Since the seed of Chicory is a com
mon impurity in clover and grass
seeds, it is very important to sow
clean, graded seed. On roadsides
and other places where cultivation
is impractical, and where Chicory
has become established, the best and
most effective control method is
spraying with a chemical weed kill
er, Atlacide, Stephen Weed Killer,
or a 2, 4D weed killer will all do
an excellent job of controlling
chicory. Spraying should be dono
before seeds mature, and the rec
ommendations contained in the cir
cular, “Chemical Weed Control”
should be followed carefully. This
circular may be obtained on re
quest from the 'Crops, Seeds and
Weeds Branch, Ontario Department
of Agriculture, Parliament Build
ings, Toronto.
