ENGLISH STOOK FOOD.
This is to certify that I have used
English Stock Food manufactured by
C. Lutz, Exeter, for young calves for
ayear past. They never refuse to take
food along in summer and when grass
conies,. It is an excellent food gives
full value for the money, and have no
hesitation in recommending it to stock
raisers.
