Crushed oyster shell t should be kept before the hens at all times. It might be well to put one I per cent of powdered calcium carbo- v nate or ground oyster shell in the v laying mash. At least four per cent of o steamed bone meal should be added to je the mash for its calcium and phos- c phorous content. With these added a minerals the fault should be correct- J immediately. Beef cattle and soybeans make a ^profitable combination on any farm, says j. h. Jonnson or wiikes county,'1!? who has built up his land and made some money from the combination. i ; FORD GA ! | - -- THEN H Obtained by mounting front FE1 =1 springs ahead of axle and mov- flan "I ing V-8 engine forward.
