tained false and misleading representations that the cattle mineral was ade-

breeding and freshening problems, breeding disorders, rundown conditions,
fall slump, calving problems, digestive disorders, and irregular heat periods,
and that it would eliminate disease in general; that the hog mineral was an
adequate and effective treatment for lameness, stiffness, and swollen joints,
that it would make hogs stronger, healthier, and gain weight faster, and that
it would produce more and stronger hogs at birth; and that the stock tonic

digestion, increasing milk production, reducing breeding troubles, purifying
the blood, providing better health and vigor, and providing healthier offspring.
