We take pleasure in extending to all poultry and livestock feeders and those interested in feeding problems, an invitation to attend a free picture in color. “One pig in four dies before it reaches market and 85% of deaths occur in the first eight weeks of the pig’s life.” This authorative moving picture deals with the care of the sow and litter, with special references to ways of reducing losses. Another film deals with baby chicks. From hatching to eight weeks is the most critical time in a chick’s life.
