Week after week and month
after month the Bigger and
Better Chevrolet has swept
on to greater and greater
heights of popularity—until to-
day it stands acknowledged
•verywhere as first choice of
the nation for 1928!
Never has any Chevrolet en-
joyed such overwhelming
public acceptance—for never
has any low-priced car pro-
vided such an outstanding
combination of distinctive
beauty, thrilling performance
and amazing economy!
Its beautiful bodies by Fisher-
long, low and racy, and finished
in colors that reveal to-day's
mode for smartness and indi-
viduality—are far in advance
of accepted standards in the
field of low-priced cars. Inside
and out they prove anew that
Fisher craftsmanship is a thing
apart.
But Chevrolet performance is
no less impressive than Chev-
rolet beauty and style. Never
before was a low-priced car so
easy to handle—for the steer-
ing mechanism is fitted with
ball bearings throughout . . •
the clutch and gear-shift lever
respond to the slightest touch
...and big non-locking 4-
wheel brakes give a measure
of braking control that is more
than equal to every occasion.
Come in and see the car that
has won the approval of more
than three-quarters of a million
buyers since January 1st.
Learn for vourself why it is
scoring the greatest success of
this great automotive yearl

HOW TO PREVENT DISEASES
AMONG THE PIGS AND HOGS
The biggest factor in controlling
swine diseases is sanitation and pre-
vention, states Dr. M. E. Gleason of
San Antonio.
"Burn all trash around the hog lots
once a week, avoid mud holes and
where garbage is fed, clean the prem-
ises once a month and burn the sur-
face with a poar burner and expose
the ground to the sunlight four or five
hours afterward," he asserts.
"Cholera, hemorrhagic septicemis
and necrotic enteritis are the chief
swine diseases in this country, and in-
testinal worms the worst parasites.
All three of these diseases may be
controlled by vaccination if properly
done. The main thing is to diagnose
the ailment correctly And to do this
a veterinary is essential. Guessing at
the disease and trying to administer
treatment, is usually a waste of time.
Worms may be eliminated by the use
of capsules containing oil of chenopo-
dium. these capsules being for sale
under various trade names.
