Dairy m M earn them «noun the cold storage plant at Thornbury has been the means of greatly increas- ing the returns from apples.

Calcium and phosphorus are two minerals spec- iaily required for laying pullets and hens in the manufacture of eggs. The digestion and assimilation of materials. especially calcium. require one of two things; an abundance of direct sun- shine or an abundance of vitamin D. Cod liver oil is rich in vitamin D. and is one of the reliable sources of this type of food. Dependable quality is an advantage in the export market.
