The last three minutes actually told the story. Then came an overtime period with the rules calling for a verdict to the team scoring the first two points -- either from the floor or from the free throw line. --I-- The finish was fierce. Woodstock gained control of the ball, but failed to count. Hebron took the ball down the floor to count on a close shot. That was all. |Iebron won 41 to 89. --I-- McHerrry fans got a great wallop out of watching Coach Crane during the time his boys were coming up to victory.

Hens that have maderecords up to '.V28 eggs. The males are all approved Rbirds out of dams having records of 250 to 315 eggs. ___ ~ •' • < > It Pays to Buy Good Chicks That is why we bought our chicks from the Grandview Hatchei^ at Zeeland. Strong, healthy chicks from good parent stock build the first step to success in poultry raising. Cheap chicks are' usually the most expensive. The death of even a few inferior chicks will mora than offset the higher cost of good ones. One or two extra eggs in the. life time of a pullet will more than pay the difference between the cost of a good chick and an inferior one. Consider the results you get rather than the initial cost of the chieks^ We offer our Super Contest Chicks, day old, at $11-00 per 100 a*i4 our Special Contest A. A. A.

Why not stop in our office any time after February 15 and inspect these chicks? It surely is a pleasure to watch them grow on our GOLD SEAL ALL MASH CHICK STARTER.
