Bank er Montreal Ini Dniw ro A HUUM uuoun WALK Of LIFE SINCE 1017 Your pullets need real growth if they are to be in tip-top shape next fall to produce large eggs early, during the high price season, and keep on laying steadily. To get that real growth the pullets must be fed a good balanced ration. It is not good enough to raise pullets just on pasture and grain. They will not lay as many eggs during the following year—nor will they produce* large eggs as early as balanced-fed. SHOR-GAIN Growing Mash is fully tested under Canadian farm conditions.

But the question is not a foolish one. For ii you keep asking the government to de things for you then you are automatically asking for higher taxes Government itself creates and possesses nothing. All it can do is to take something from the citizens and hand it back to them—less a handling charge to pay the wages of govern­ ment t mployees and cost of distribution. Taxes are the means by which this transfer is made possible, Higlser wages without higher production per man mean higher prices. If welfare transfer payments are raised be­ cause of rising prices then taxes must go up. too. Thus higher prices now mean higher taxes. Keep these facts in mind when you read about new State welfare proposals, or about new wage demands that are not accompanied by assurance of higher per-man production.
