We will have two of the Prairie State Incubators at work in our
warehouse this season. We expect them in to -day. We will
have them set up at once and we want every farmer in this
district to see how easy it is to get strong, healthy chickens just
when you want them and as many as you want. The Prairie
State Incubator is a very reliable machine and is doing excellent
work in other parts 92 the country.
More Poultry Needed
We have already sold large amounts of eggs and poultry for
delivery in 1916. This will guarantee the farmers of Western
Ontario a bigger market than they ever had before.
Fertilizer
Will increase the crop on your farrn so that if you have not
the help to wnrk its much land as you did other years, by the use
of Gunne Sure -Crop, you may have the same amount of grain
from less land. Nearly all the farmers are using Fertilizer now.
We have placed an order for 25 tar loads of Fertilizer which is
an evidenee that the farmers of Western Ontario have faith in
Gunns' Sure -Crop.
Cream
Call at our Warehouse for cream cans, as it is more profitable
to ship your cream than to make butter.
