Avoid disappointment at farrowing time by feeding CO-OP Mix Brood Sow Ration to your brood sows. With the present and potential market for hogs, unduly small litters, and weak unthrifty pigs mean nothing less than immense losses to both the farmer and the nation. CO-OP Mix Brood Sow Ration is an efficient ration, laxative rather than constipating, and designed to be fed six weeks previous to farrowing and until little pigs are weaned. You will assure yourself handsome dividends by feeding it to your sows this season. . COOP MIX Belgrave Co-Op. Association Thursday, December 12th, 1946 WINGHAM ADVANCE-TIMES h. WS.
