Our Seventh Car of Hominy Hearts! I is now in transit. The rapid sale of this feed has | : been no surprise to us, as Jasper county people are i not slow to take hold of a good thing. This fact has i been proven by the sale of this feed. Last October ! we bought a few tons of Hominy Hearts and our 1 customers looked at it a little supiciously, but were '' willing to try a few pounds, and found it to be all we j claimed for it. The farmers who at first took a sack full to try are now hauling it off by the ton. * I There are many feeders confident that 1 j I 100 pounds of HOMINY HEARTS prop- I | I erly fed will produce as much fat as I i bushels of corn. I j If you are not now using this feed it will pay you j to try it and be convinced. We keep a full line of Chop Feed, Bran, Shorts, i Cracked Corn and Wheat. Grain of any kind ac- j cepted in exchange. Come and see us. j Rensselaer Feed Store, j A. L. BRANCH, Pro. j
