GREATER POWER, PEP AND ADDED MILEAGE HAVE MADE
T H E NEW PRODUCT SCORES OF FRIENDS.
One man drained the tank on h u car and bought three gallons
of Ethyl gas for a tiial. He t lephoned in for 50 gallons after he
had given it a thorough tist.
A truck owner tried Ethyl’s pulling power on a hill. With
other gas he had been compelled to shift twice to make thir climb.
E thyl’s greater power took him up easily without a single shift.
IT IS MIGHTY GOOD TO USE IN CLEANING YOUR MOTOR.
ETHYL’S GAS IS WINNING FAVOR WITH MOTORISTS EVERY

It is a Billion Dollar Cash Crop
■
The poultry census is taken only every 10 years. The last cen-
sns showed there were in the United States 380,000,000 chickens.
They produced 1 G .G.OCO.OOO dozen c ’gs. The year's production
of chick n3 and eggs brought $1,048,000,000.
Ninety per cent of this billion dollars goes to fanners or ra tb ir
to fanners’ wives. These good wives spend it for groceries, cloth-
ing. li" ts, washin , machines, rugs, pictures, books, phonographs.
If we should t a k : tl«c poultry money out of a farm community, the
country town merchants would wonder w hat had happened to their
business.

Higher labor and feed prices, our newer knowledge of the fac-
tors making for economical and successful egg pioduction, and an
increasing demand for a standardized product on the part of the
consumer are factors which are forcing many farm folks to make
adjustments in their flocks. Farm poultry is fast getting down to
a more busin ss-like basis.

We have just received a number of booklets giving the results
of several experiment stations and s iccessful poultry men, of
Hatching, Brooding. Culling and F ed in g , as well as labor saving
devices in the care of Chickens, Ducks, Geese and Turkeys. Cop-
MS may be obtained at the office.
