A HAN came into our store a few days ago, and was just "looking around. " He noticed a Feed Cutter which we had on display, and gave us some actual facts which were a revelation to us. He keeps enough horsesand by the way, he is a Hood River man, too but as we started to say: he keeps so many horses that it required seven bales of hay per day to feed them. Note that word required. Several months ago he bought a Feed Cutter cuts all the hay every bit of it. But now he re quires only four bales per day to feed the same number of horses. Now figure that out. A sa-Oing of three bales per day on a basis of seven bales used formerly, amounts to a fraction less than 43 per cent. Think of it almost cut the feed bill right square in two. You can do the same thing. By investing $35 in one of our Feed Cutters, you can save almost one-half. Just take a few moments to find out what your total bill for this one item alone has been for the past year then cut off 43 per cent of it and compare the saving with the price of the cutter.
