Hoosier Drills are Winners
HOOSIER DRILLS, with the positive force feed, are
successful from every point of view. The feed is the
important part of the drill, we might say the 'heart of
the drill. Some drills have heart failure, but not the
Hoosier. This feed is a Positive Force Feed. It will
sow uniformly at all times, and under all conditions,
a thing that other feeds, whether they are called "force
feeds0 or not, will not do. Another advantage pos
sessed by the Hoosier is, its feed does not crack the
seed. This is the principal objection farmers have to
drills, and it has bun successfully overcome in the
Hoosier. The Hoosier is light draft and is in every way a
practical drill. SEND FOR HOOSIER CATALOGUE.

Why Colds Are Dangerous.
Because you have contracted ordi
nary colds and recovered from them
without treatment of any kind, do not
for a moment Imagine that colds are
not dangerous. Everyone knows that
pneumonia and chonlc catarrh have
their origin In a common cold. Con
sumption is not caused by a cold but
the cold prepares the system for the
reception and development of the
germs that would not otherwise have
found lodgment, it Is the same with
all Infectious diseases. Diptherla,
scarlet fever, measles and whooping
cough are much more likely to be
contracted when the child has a cold.
You will see from this that more real
danger lurks In a cold than In any
other of the common ailments. The
easiest and quickest way to cure a
cold Is to take Chamberlain's Cough
remedy. The many remarkable cures
effected by this preparation have
made It a staple article of trade over
a large part of the world. For sale
