/'TAINGLING with abundant energy, appetites hearty, nerves
A strong and steady and their faces radiant with the glow
of perfect health, the entire family of Louis Gingras, 9 H ar
rison Ave., Providence, R. I., are an eloquent tribute to the
powers of Tanlac, the greatest family medicine the world has
ever known.

“I’ve put Tanlac to the test four
tim es right in my own family anil It
hasn’t failed me once," declared Mr.
Gingras. "My wife, my son and my
daughter, us well us myself, have all
been built up from a half .sick, run
down, worn-out set of people into a
healthy, happy family brim ful of new
life and energy.”
And the experience of this family Is
only typical of thousands of others
whose statem ents are on file in the
T anlac offices. Hardly a day pusses
that does not bring scores of such mes
sages of praise from every p art of the
United States and Canada from fam i
lies w here mother, father, son and
daughter have all found health, con
tentm ent and the Joys of living
through simply taking a course of
Tanlac.
Take, for Instance, the case of John
W ldner, 15T1 Koosevelt Ave., Los An
geles, Calif., who says: “My wife, my
self and little boy are now as healthy,
happy family as you will ever see—
and it’s all due to Tanlac.”
Or th at of Mrs. John M arquis and
her family of sixteen living in Man
chester, N. H., at 202 Belmont St.,
She says: "Tanlac has been the only
medicine used in our house for two
years and it has kept every one of the
sixteen here in the best of Jieulth.”
In Chicago, Frank It. Richards, of
441 South Wood SI., w rites: “We will
never be without Tanlac In our house
after the rem arkable way it hus built
up my wife, my son and myself to
w here we are the very picture of
health.”
R epresentative of New York Is the
case of Chus. E. Van Colt’s family, re
siding at 120 Fourth Ave., Albany. He
says: "Every' member of our family Is
enthusiastic over Tanlac. It’s certainly
a medicine for all the fam ily.”
From far-aw ay Canada comes this
m essage: "My little girl, my son and
myself are all enjoying splendid
health now and T anlac brought it ull
about.” Mrs. B ert Hewer, 103 East
Avenue, Toronto, Ontario.
"W e cull Tunhic T h e Family Medi
cine’ here in our Virginia home, be
cause It restored my m other and sister
to perfect health, Just the sume us It
hus done me,” Is the enthusiastic
statem ent of Mrs. J. F. Robertson,
Danville, Vu.
And on through the list, men, women
anil children from every state In the
Union and every province of Canada
unhesitatingly come forw ard and tell
In words ringing w ith sincerity of the
wonderful benefits of health and hap
piness that Tanlac has brought into
their homes th at w ere formerly dark
ened by the gloom of sickness, suffer
ing and despair.
And should yours be one of those
homes w here any member of the fam
ily Is thin, run down and weakened
from loss of appetite, caused by Indi
gestion and stomach troubles, you have
at your very door the m eans th at will
no doubt bring the sunshine of vigor

yours, Just as it has done In so many

When Jam es Murphy uf Long Island

"Judge, I paid my fare, and had

to the subway, and I had tny pipe in

it, I put It In my mouth. It's the first

"All right, Murphy,” answered Judge
Doyle, “I will suspend sentence on you
this time. But suppose you hud an

Murphy grinned, and left the court
room.
Cucumber’s History.
A strange reeipe was once given for
the use of cucumbers. It stated, peel
off the cucumber, slice it, popper It,
put vinegar to It, and then throw it
out of the window. It Is, of course,
difficult to account for ta stes; hut this
rath er suggests advice prompted by
an enfeebled digestion. The cucumber
has for centuries had a place in the
world’s dietary table. We have biblical
authority for the statem ent that when
the Israelites complained to Moses,
they said: “W e rem em ber the fish
which we did eat In E g y p t; the cucum
ber and the melons.” T here may be
im aginative minds who will see here a
link with that popular English dish of
today, salmon and cucumber.—Chicago

The value of a dairy herd has been
proven to many thousands of farm ers
since the prices of grains have been
down. Cheap feed means cheap milk
production, and milk means a weekly
or monthly check from the creumer.v
or milk distributing companies in the
cities.
There are two essentials to profit
able dairying. The first is well-bred
animals, either pure-breds or grades.
It costs little more to feed a pu re-bred
than n scrub, while the milk produc
tion is several times as great. It re-

set In two facing rows. 10 stall* in
each row, This method takes the
strong light out of the cows’ eyes, and
permits the sunshine to strike the gut
ters. Sunshine helps to keep the stable
healthful, as It kills germs. Over both
the feed and litter alleys are carrier
tracks, which save labor when the feed
Is being carried to the m angers and
the litter la being removed. The tracks
over the Utter alleys run to the
m anure pile, shown at the rear and
one side of the barn.
Fresh air Inlets are located at the
center of the stable ceilings, and are
connected with chutes that lead to the
openings that may be seen Just above
the foundation wall In the picture.
Inside, at the center of the building, is
the foul air shaft that Is connected
with the suction ventilator on the roof.
Thus is the foul air sucked out of
the stable and replaced by fresh air,
which comes In so that there Is no
draft on the animals. The mangers
at the stall heads nre continuous and
are built of concrete. They should
have a slight pitch to a drain at one
end, so that they may be hosed out
when cleaning is required. The stall
partitions nre of steel, and are set into
the concrete when the floor Is laid.
The roof of the building Is covered
with prepared roofing, and the barn Is
equipped with lightning rods, as all
farm buildings should be.
This is a completely equipped, well-
planned milk producing factory, where
the cows will be com fortable and
highly productive, and w here during
cold w eather they will be warm and
the feed they consume will go to make
milk rather than to keep them warm.
It is now approaching the tim e of
the year when building operations in

At the last census—1920—less than
3 per cent of the dairy cows in the
United States were pure-breds. The
average mlta production per cow was
under 4.000 pounds. It Is a mighty
poor pure-bred, and one that breeders
do not consider worth keeping, that
does not give more than twice that
amount.
The second requirem ent for success
with dairy herds is the right sort of
housing. Dairy anim als to produce at
their maximum must have warm, well-
, ventilated quarters during the five or
I six months they are not on pasture.
They must have a continuous supply
of fresh water. Those are the re
quirem ents for maximum milk flow.
Shown in the Illustration is the type
of bum that dairymen build to house
their herds. This dairy barn is small
—designed to house 20 cows—but It
has the requirem ents that go to make
dairying profitable. It Is a well con
structed, w eathertight fram e building,
set on a concrete foundation. The
stable floor Is of concrete, also, mak
ing It easy to keep clean and sanitary.
Above the dairy stable Is mow room
for a supply of hay large enough to
carry the anim als through the winter,
while by adding a silo at one end
the dairym an will have storage
capacity for all the feed the cows wlft
require during the months they are In
doors.
