is PANGBURNS—available in O’Neill exclusively at DKVOY’S
REXALL DRUG. Give a box of PANGBURN’S Western Style
Chocolates for Easter this year—you can’t choose a better candy.
EASTER CARDS
For really nice Easter Cards, see our display of cards by
American Greetings Company. We have Religious Cards as well
as the Conventional Type. Greet your friends and your loved ones
this Easter with a nice Easter Card by American Greetings.
EASTER BUNNIES
The kiddies will be delighted with an Easter Bunny of their
very own. One of the Easter Bunny Dolls- brightly dressed, and
a full 3 feet tall, or one of the soft plush Easter Bunnies, will
thrill any child. Both bunnies are so reasonably priced—
Only $1 99
VETERINARY NEEDS
VACCINES: Once again, this year as usual, we have prices
you’ll like on double and triple bacterins. This is the season
when you will be needing vaccines, so remember where you
can get those good prices.
CALF SCOURS: Be sure to have a good supply of calf scour
remedy on hand to prevent an outbreak of scours among your
new calves or to check any scours that might develop. We carry
Sulfastrep and Terramycin A.D. Tablets, both excellent prepa
rations for the prevention and treatment of scours in calves.
Don’t wait until it’s too late—get a supply of this medication now!
PEXICILLIN-DIHYDROSTREPTOMYCIN: This is another
product which the wise rancher keeps on hand in good supply.
It still seems to be the product of choice in the treatment of
pneumonia and other respiratory diseases. Because of the wider
range of infections covered by the combination, and smaller
dosage required, this combination is more economical to use
than penicillin alone.
PRESCRIPTIONS
The next time your doctor finds it necessary to write a pre
scription for you or a member of your family, take that prescrip
tion to DEVOY’S REXALL DRUG to be filled by a PRESCRIP
TION SPECIALIST. If your doctor is going to telephone a pre
scription to a drug store, ask him to call it to DEVOY’S REXALL
DRUG. Remember, for your convenience, DEVOY’S is open
evenings with a REGISTERED PHARMACIST on duty until
9:00 p.m.
