YES I LIFT A CORN
• OFF WITHOUT PAIN!
Cincinnati authority tells how to dry
up a corn or callus so it lifts
off with fingers.
You corn-pestered men and women
need Buffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because a few
) drops of free/.one applied directly on a
tender, aching corn or callus, stops sore
ness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens so it can be
lifted out, root and all, without pain.
A small bottle of freezone cost very
little at any drug store, but will posi
tively take off every hard or soft
corn or callus. This should be tried,
as it is inexpensive and is said not to
irritate the surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn’t any freezone
fell him to get a small bottle for you
from his wholesale drug house. It is
fine stuff aud acts like a charm every
time.
Will you wet down your roughage and

SOME farmers are still paying top prices for old style
cottonseed hulls because they prefer a bulky filler.
Others are paying much less for

and are making them as bulky as old style hulls by
wetting them down a half hour or so before using.
By adding an equal part of water to Buckeye Hulls and
stirring thoroughly they will swell and give you as bulky
a roughage as you want. Most important, the bulki
ness will be dm to water whit h is of value to your cattle
—not to lint which has no food value whatever.
Other Advantages

Mr. Benjamin Thompson, Baldhnob, Ark.,
is feeding Buckeye Hulls to stock cattle. He says
that he gets more food value per ton with less waste.
He has bought five tons and has them stored in barn.
He says that they occupy less space than old style hulls.
To secure the best results and to develop the ensilage odor, ivet the hulls
thoroughly twelve hours before feeding. It is easy to do this by
wetting them down night and morning for the next feeding. If at any time
this cannot be done, wet down at least thirty minutes. If you prefer to
feed the hulls dry, use only half as much by bulk as of old style hulls.
