Lemons for malaria: DR.. Crudelli.

for preparing a remedy for malaria
which may be worth trying. as it is said
to have proved efficacions when

steers that an experiment made proved
that two-year-old steers. fed with three
year-olds and four-year-olds. made
more beef in proportion to the food
consumed than either three-year-olds
or four-year-olds; also that tho three
year-olds were more profitable than
the four-year-olds. Thus it is un6oubt-
