Digs Them All and Digs Them Right
No farmer would ever return to the old method of diszp-inp- potatoes after he has
ouce used a Hoover Digger. This digger gets them all. -It does not chop or scrape
the potatoes but leaves them clean on top of the rows. It is an extremely 'light draft
machine and is exceptionally well made. We also have in stock the Hoover Picker
Digger a machine which not only digs potatoes but deposits them in a box or crate
fastened to the machine and saves the labor of picking up the potatoes. These are
machines which ought to be of interest to every potato grower. Let us know if you
are interested and we will send you our catalogue and circulars.

Many people are nfraid ol hosts. Few people
are afraid of germs. Yet the hot is fancy and
th tferra is a fact. If the germ could be magnified
to a size equal to its terrors it would appear more
terrible than any fire-breathind dragon. Germs
can't be avoided. They are in the air we breathe,
the water we drink.
The germ can only prosper when the condition
of the system gives it free scope to establish it
self and develop. When there is a deficiency of
vital force, languor, restlessness, a sallow cheek,
a hollow eye, when the appetite is poor and the
sleep is broken, it is time to guard against the germ. You can
fortify the body against all germs by the use of Dr. Pierce's Gold
en Medical Discovery. It increases the vital power, cleanses the
system of clogging impurities, enriches the blood, puts the stom
ach and organs of digestion and nutrition in working condition, no
