Iron Is Red Blood Food It
I Helps to Put Strength and
; EnergylntotheVeinsofMen
and Roses into the Cheeks of
Women. Why Nuxated Iron
eo Quickly Builds Up Weak,
Nervous, Run-down People.'
Thousands of men and women sre impair
Bg their constitutions, laying thomaelvea
open to illness and literally losing their grip
on health, simply because their blood is thin
ning out and possibly starving through lack
of iron. Lack of iron in the blood not only
rnakos roan a physical and mental weak
ling, nervous, irritable, rosily fatigued, but
it utterly robi him of the virile force, that
Stamina and strength of will which are so
necessary to success and power In every walk
of U(e. It may also transform beautiful,
sweet-tempered woman into one who is cross,
nervous and irritable.
Iron is absolutely essential to enable your
blood to transform the food you cat into
muscular tissue and brain. It is through
iron in the red coloring matter of the blood
that life-sustaining oxygon titers tho body.
Without iron there is no strength, vitality
and endurance to combat obstacles or with
stand sevure strains. Contrary to gnneral
opinion, luck of iron in the blood dots not
necessarily mean 'you do not baVe enough
blood, but It means your blood is not of the
right kind. To help make strong, keen, red
blooded people there is nothing better than
organic iron Nuxated Iron. Unlike the
older inorganic iron products it is easily as
simulated, docs not injure Iho teeth, make
them black nor upset the stomach. No mat
ter what other tonics or iron remedies you
' have used without success, if you are not
strong or well you owe it to yournelf to make

TRAINING LITTLE CHILDREN
Suggestions by mothers who have been kindergartners. Issued by the
United States Bureau of Education, Washington, D. C, and the National
Kindergarten Association, 8 West Fortieth Street, New York.
(By Susan Chenery)
(Author of "'As the Twig is Bent")
My sister Helen and I are getting
along. We can't call ourselves young
any more. Her daughter Margery is
married and her son Frank is in the
senior year at college. Helen has
reason to feel perfectly satisfied
with her work as a mother. Both
Margery and Frank would be a cred
it to any family. They have their
faults, but these are not noticeable.
What I admire most in them is their
absolute sincerity; there seems to be
not only no striving after effect, but
complete unconsciousness of it. I
question whether this is entirely de
sirable in a boy of Frank's tempera
ment. If he were not kindhearted,
his bluntness would at times give of
fence. Still he is obliging and that
saves the situation. I asked Helen if
she thought that when Margery had
children she would follow along her
mother's lines. '
"Why, no," said Helen, "I hope
she'll improve on 'em. You must re
member that the children rarely had
occasion to know my motives. Per
haps they think every child is train
ed as they were. I never tried to
impress the children with my per
sonality. What I aimed at was what
most mothers should desire for their
children, the good old standard vir
tues which we all ought to have,
such as truth, honor, charity, obed
ience, faith. Those seemed essen
tial. There were . other things I
wanted for them, such as neatness,
courtesy, and thrift. There were
still others that I hoped they would
have, but did not especially strive for:
I feared to meddle too much with
their individuality. Do you know I
could wish now that I had aimed at
more in their training. Is it not
amazing that every virtue I wished
them to have, they have? As I look
back I can't see that I worked hard
to get them, either. I seem- to have
simply kept those things in mind
and headed the children in that di
rection. I wanted the children to
have certain qualities, and they have
them."
"One reason why your children are
straightforward and sincere, Helen, is
because you never 'pretended' with
them. How will children learn the
truth from parents whom they fre
quently hear telling what isn't true?
How Will they learn honestly when
their parents tell them to deceive the
conductor about their ages? Those
who are taught to be polite only be
fore company are not apt to be truly
courteous. Some,, parents ought to
train themselves instead of train
ing their children." -
"Oh, of course we must be in ear
nest," said Helen. "I'd like to say
to every young mother: 'Begin early
and keep in view the qualities you
want your children to have and they
will surely have them. Begin before
they know that the world contains
opinions different from yours. Get
ahead of the enemy that sows the
tares. Your' tiny trees will be all
right if you look after them in sea
son. There's nothing hard in bend
ing or straightening a tree while it
is little. If yo"u keep it in sight
afterwards and see that it stays
straight, that is all that is neces
sary; it Will almost certainly grow
up as you started it."
"Keep the children in sight, in
deed," said I, who see all sorts of
children in my school. "Why, Helen,
then the mothers could not go off on
their own good times! Children now-a-days
grow up as they happen to.
Most mothers would not listen to
you."
"Some of them might," said Helen.

WILL IMPROVE NATIONAL
FOREST RANGES IN OREGON
New driveWays, bridges, canals,
and drift fences are included in the
Forest Service plans for improving
the grazing ranges on the national
forests of Oregon and Washington,
according to District Forester Geo.
II. Cecil, Portland. Forty-three bridg
es, forty-six trails and driveways,
twenty-four corrals, and forty-three
drift fences have already been built
to facilitate the handling of. stock on
the national forests of the district.
Water development has been made in
206 places.
The value of water development is
illustrated by the Cabin Lake Range,
on the Deschutes national forest,
which formerly supported no stock
because water was lacking. A deep
well equipped with a gasoline pump
now provides sufficient water for 600
cattle, and it is planned to sink sev
eral more wells in this region at in
tervals of about six miles, which, it
is believed by forest officers, will
equip the range to take, care of 3,000
more cattle.
The eradication of poison plants
which cause some annual loss of
tock was successfully accomplished
last year on a 20-acre area of tall
larkspur on the Siskiyou national for
est. A similar area on the Minam
will be grubbed out early in June by
the Forest Service and the Goose
Creek Cattle and Horse Association
in, cooperation. Fourteen other pois
on plant areas have been located by
forest officers and will be taken care
of as rapidly as possible.
The amount of ranges available in
the national forests is limited, says
Mr. Cecil, and the purpose of range
improvements by the Forest Service
is to give the ranges greater carry'
ing capacity because of more intens
ive development.

Oregon City people recommend. Every

Here's one Oregon City man's ex
perience. Let M. G. Christensen, 1119 Sev

hesitate to speak a good word for
Doan's Kidney Pills at any time, for
I know from personal experience that
they can't be equaled for backache or
other kidney disorders. I have been
taking Doan's Kidney Pills off and
on for several years whenever I have
noticed my kidneys have been out of
fix or when my back has felt stiff
and lame. They have never failed to
overcome the trouble."

Farm Help Grows Scarce
A very large call for trained farm
help is experienced even at this early
date, reports J. W. Brewer, farm
help specialist for the federal and
O. A. C. agricultural extension. "If
this is the condition now,' what will
be the situation when spring work is
on in full blast and fanners need
help in a hurry?" he asks. "Many
persons predicted a large surplus of
all kinds of labor, and thought help
would be easy to get. Send your ap
plications to our Portland office and
tell particularly what kind of work
you want done." .
Testing Picks Good Cows
The 600 cows tested in Oregon in
November averaged 556 pounds of
milk carrying 27.15 pounds fat. The

cow gave 1512 pounds -of milk carry
ing 75.60 pounds fat. , Her record in
milk was 2 times and in fat almost
three times that of the average 600
cows. Yet the 600 were better than
the average untested cow, six of the
poorest having been 'sent to the
butcher for being no better. E. L.
Westovtr of the agricultural college
has charge of the testing.
