QoaQQ Every Niqht For Constipation H&ikcheJneUostion,etc. ERANDRETH PILLS Safe and Sure jj axacaacaaaxiJ P. N. U. No. 5, 1817 First Essential of Ticklish Busi ness Is Quality. Only Successful When Stock, Farm and Man Behind Both Are Adapt ed to Risky Undertaking Feed Is Important. The production of baby beef Is a very ticklish business. It Is success fully done only when stock, farm and the man behind both are all adapted to a very risky undertaking. The whole object Is to turn twelye to six teen month-old calves off as prime fat steers, weighing 1,000 to 1,400 pounds in much less time than re quired for general steer raising. The whole thing means quality animals to start with. It means offspring from strictly beef strains, like Shorthorn, Hereford, Angus or Galloway. Really no other breed need apply In the pro duction of real baby beef, says a writer In Baltimore American. Both mothers and offspring must be abun dantly fed so as to keep these young things steadily on the gain, eating to their full capacity, from birth to mar ket. The calves must nurse their dams and be given an abundance of nu tritious grain from the very start, both while on pasture and when in winter quarters. Concentrated feeds In addition to clover and alfalfa are Registered Shorthorns. absolutely necessary during the win ter months. Long nursing on the dams or an abundance of milk or skim milk with grain is necessary. This all means that splendid, well bred stock is to be used only. It means also that you have got to have Ideal farm conditions, an abundance of the very best pasture and legume hays, silage and grain feeds. Can Be Done In East. There Is no reason why baby beef cannot be made in the East, except that labor Is expensive or that farms have not been farmed to produce high est quality legumes and other grasses for pasture. Besides this, the produc tion of grain is more expensive as a rule In the East, thus contributing to high costs 1n making beef. You see the regular average pasture, with the regular average method of feeding, will not produce topnotch baby beef. I do not mean to say that we cannot reach a point where raising baby beef may not be profitable In the East ; not that, but we have got to get ready for that sort of farming first. LABOR AND FERTILITY SAVED Excellent Farm Practice to Haul Ma nure Direct to Field Where It I to Be Utilized. Farmers and scientists are pretty well agreed that under ordinary farm conditions the best place for manure after It leaves the barn Is spread on the field where it is to be utilized. More and more farmers are building their barns now with a view to driving through the barn, loading the manure directly on to the wagon or spreader, and taking it out to the field each day. This is excellent farm practice. It saves labor and soil fertility. WEED IS MOST UNDESIRABLE Keeping Ahead of Noxious Plant Re quires Knowledge and Persever ance on Part of Farmer. A good deal has been said about weeds and all will agree that they are most undesirable. No one cares to grow them In crops and yet they grow, and that luxuriantly, If unrestrained. Keeping ahead of the weeds requires perseverance and a correct knowledge of the best way to keep them down. Study the capability of your soil. Keep the pigs growing all the time.

Says Corns Lift Out Without Any Pain You reckless men and women who are pestered with corns and who have at least once a week Invited an awful death from lockjaw or blood poison are now told by a Cincinnati authority to use a drug called freezone, which the moment a few drops are applied to any corn or callous the soreness is relieved and soon the entire corn or callous, root and all, lifts off with the fingers. Freezone dries the moment it is ap plied, and simply shrivels the corn or callous without inflaming or even ir ritating the surrounding tissue or skin. A small bottle of freezone will cost very little at any of the drug stores, but will positively rid one's feet of every hard or soft corn or hardened callous.. If your druggist hasn't any freezone he Can get it at any wholesale drug house lor you. He When I was 4 years old I was left an orphan. She What did ou do with it? The Orange Peel. "' IF BEGIN ON SALTS Flush your kidneys occasionally if you eat meat regularly. No man or woman who eats . meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou ble, nervousness, constipation, dizzi ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders corns from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation of scalding, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water be fore breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon julee, combined with lithia and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to neutralize the acids In urine so it no longer causes Irritation, thus end ing bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and can not injure; makes a delightful effer vescent lithia-water drink which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.

Uzt Rcsittol Soaffertht comltjritH, OackaciiQ just Like a Toothache I Dear Mr. Editor Sometimo ago I had backache very bod ;. it would ache just like a toothache. I tried a new discovery of Doctor Pierce's, called "Anuric." This is for kidneys and backache. I soon felt relieved of all backache nnd had no more pain, and I hope others troubled in the same way will try this wonderful new remedy. Youre sincerely, Mrs. Lincoln Stearns. Note It Is now asserted with con fidence that these painful effects due to nric acid In tho system are entirely eradi cated. A now remedy, called "Anuric," has been discovered by Dr. Pierce, and Is the cause of a drainage outward of the uric acid with which It comes In contact within tho body. It will ward off back ache, headache, and the darting pains and aches of articular or muscular rheuma tism of those diseases which are caused by too much uric acid, such as gout, asthma, sciatica, renal calculus. "An uric " prolongs life because old people usu ally suffer from hardening and thickening of the walls of tbe arteries, due to the ex cess of uric acid in the blood and tissues. Dr. Pierce, who Is director and chief physician at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., has been testing this wonderful medicine for the relief of over-worked and weakened kidneys. Tho relief obtained by sufferers has been so satisfactory that he deter mined to place "Anuric" with the prin cipal druggists In town where people could get this roady-to-uso medicine. "Anuric" Is not harmful or poisonous, but aids nature In throwing off those poisons within tho body which cause so much suffering, pain and misery. Scien tists assert this remedy Is 37 times mora potent than lithia. For Dlabotos and Brlght's Disease this remedy is building up a roputation as good as Dr. Pierce's other well-known medicines which havo been proven reli able during noarly lifty years, such as Doctor Piorce's Favorite Prescription for the Ills of womon, Doctor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, the liver regulator, and Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery lor red blood.
