On grain alone, a hen will produce 10 eggs a month at the most. With three
quarters of a pound of SHUR-GAIN EGMAKER CONCENTRATE added to
the grain, the same hen can produce 20 Grade A eggs a month.
At 35 cents a dozen, 10 Grade A eggs are worth 29 cents.
Three quarters of a pound of SHUR-GAIN Egmaker costs approximately 3c.
Therefore 10 extra Grade A eggs cost you about three cents.
You make 26 cents per bird per month extra by feeding SHUR-GAIN 35% EG-

was as follows:
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Gallagher,
Lionel and Patsy:
While we realize partings like these
are inevitable, they do seem to come
quickly at times and it is with feelings
of sadness—shall we say—that we are
gathered here this evening to say
"Good-bye" on the eve of your de-
parture to you new home.
We cannot express in words how
deeply grateful we have always been.
for your many acts of loving kindness
and for your ready response at all
times to do all in your power when•
the special need arose. It has all
helped so much, For this, it would
be impossible to express Our thanks,
We have always been most happy
in your midst arid we have always felt
that you also were happy in your stay
among us.
We shall be most mindful of your
welfare and even though it does seem
so far away': we trust that we shall
hear from you and know that—all is
well—in your new home. Our loss
will be their gain:
We have so much for which we are
all truly thankful. You have your
health' and still enough—youth—to
embark on this, shall we say—"New
Adventure".
We would. ask you to accept this
small token—not for any monetary
value, but just as a remembrance.
God bless you and keep you.
