62 Eggs

per week from 13 Hens

thanks to Karswood Poultry Spice

WHETHER you keep fowls for pleasure or profit, what you want are eggs and more eggs, and again more eggs. That being so, you will be interested to learn how poultry-keepers in New Zealand are increasing their egg production, simply by adding Karswood Poultry Spice to the soft mash every day. Read this letter from a lady in Parnell, Auckland, who keeps poultry as a hobby:— "Right from birth my nine pullets have been given Karswood Poultry. Spice with their mash every morning, and they have all come on in excellent condition. The birds carry themselves well, are very keen and active, and indeed neighbours tell me they look a picture. Yet I have never had any experience of poultry before, and practically all that I know about them has been gained through repeated reference to your valuable book, ' Fortunes from Eggs.' "The following are the weekly totals of egg* laid by my 13 birds, the nine pullets and 4 old hens :

"You will see that the total of 1632 eggs laid gives an average of 9 eggs per day, or over 62 eggs per week from the 13 birds, equal to a fraction under 5 eggs per week from each bird all through. As eggs have averaged 21- a dozen during this period, these 13 birds have produced in six months, or more than £l per bird for the half year. My expenditure on Karswood Poultry Spice during this period has been 6/- (for three. 2/- packets), so that it has only cost sd. extra per bird to obtain this magnificent result. "Considering that I started with such ordinary stock, and have never kept poultry before, I naturally feel that the good results I have been able to obtain are largely due to the effect of Karswood, and I take every opportunity of recommending it to my friends." Jan. 6th 1922 (Mrs.) E.G. Wonderful Stuff "Mount Palm," Rotherham, N.Z. "Please send me j£l's worth of Karswood. I consider it wonderful stuff, and all it is 'cracked up to be.'" Mrs. H. C.

Try a Shilling packet Ask your poultry food dealer to supply you with a 1/packet of Karswood Poultry Spice, adding postage if necessary, and try it for a fortnight on half a dozen hens. Results are not instantaneous —it takes a fortnight or three weeks to improve the egg returns. If your local dealer cannot supply, send a postcard to the New Zealand agents (address below), asking the name of the nearest dealer who supplies Karswood Poultry Spice.
