Canada has done her share through heavy agricult- ural production and by controlling the domestic use' of her own products. There has been so much grain exported that our supplies for feeding purposes are no more than barely enough to feed the large number of flocks which we have in Ontario this year. Here are two ways to save feed - (1) Provide your growing chickens with good pasture. (2) Supply your birds with a balanced highly nutritious feed. SHUR-GAIN RANGE MASH for birds on excellent range and SHUR-GAIN GROWING MASH when the range is only fair are the two feeds that will produce EXCELLENT GROWTH SAVE YOU FEED MAKE YOU MONEY CANADA PACKERS,.
