Oats as Grain and Fodder.

The Maine Experiment Station is now
sending out to the people on it's mailing
list bulletin on oats. This important
plant is discussed as to methods of cul-
ture and manuring; as grain and as a
forage hay and silage crop. The value
of oats as grain feed, as measured by
chemical examination and feeding and
digestion experiments is discussed, and
the analyses Of Maine grown oats from
different soils and different parts of the
State are given. The value of oats as
forage and as hay and at the time at
which they should be harvested to
obtain the largest amount of available
nutrients are shown from the results
of chemical analysis, feeding and diges-
ton experiments. The composition of
oat feed, by-product in the manufac-
ture of oat meal and rolled oats, and
their nutritive value are also shown as
the results of chemical and physiology
cal studies. The bulletin is one that
will be read with interest and studied
with profit by growers and users of
oats and oat products.
Bulletin 10 viii be sent free to all resi-
dents of Maine who apply to the Agri-
cultural Experiment Station, Orono,
Me. In writing, please mention this

Making a Man.

Hurry the baby as fast as you can,
Hurry him, worry him, make him man.
Off with his baby clothes, get him in pants,
Feed him on brain-fOodS and make him ad-
vance.
Hustle him, soon as he's able to walk,
Into grammar school cram him with talk.
Fill his poor head full of figures and facts,
Keep on a-jamming them in till it cracks.
Once boys grew up at a rational rate,
Now we develop man while you wait.
Rush him through college, compel him to
grab
OF every known subject dip and dab
Get him in business and after the cash,
All by the time he can grow mustache.
Let him forget he was ever boy.
Make gold his god, it's jingle his joy.
Keep him adjusting and clear out of breath
Until he winS-nervOuS prOStratiOn and
death.

Watery Blood a Menace
to Health.
WE KNOW HOW PALE
PEOPLE CAN GET RICH
RED BLOOD.
COME AND LET US TELL YOU
ABOUT vINOL.

When blood is watery and thin, or,
as doctors would say, lacks red blood
corpuscles, it is sign that much is rad
ically wrong.
We would advise everyone who has
such symptoms to start at once to
take proper remedy to overcome this
trouble.
That remedy is Vinol, the greatest
and most modern tonic and rebuilder.
Vinol owes it's virtue to the fact that
it contains in highly concentrated
state the active curative principles ex-
tracted from Gods livers, the same ele-
ments that have made cod-liver oil
famous for wasting diseases.
These medicinal elements are dis
solved in delicious table wine so that
Vinol is most palatable.
None of the vile-smelling obnoxious
grease that characterizes cod-liver oil
and frequently makes it an impossible
remedy for those who should take it,
is found in Vinol.
We could relate many instances
where Vinol has done good and re-
stored the roses of health to the pale
cheeks of the sufferer.
The following is fair sample of the
way people write in regard to Vinol:
For several months suffered lassi-
tude and tired all the time. Also a
sinking feeling in my stomach, which
nothing would relieve, and I was pale
and weak. As an experiment I tried
Vinol and if wrote pages could not
tell all it has done for me. MRS. A.
K. La PRUscH, Amesbury, Mass.
Because we know Vinol so well,
and because we know so surely
what it will do, and how it will
accomplish the good it does in a
scientific way, we unreservedly en-
dorse and recommend it, and in
every instance guarantee to refund
to any one what they pay US for
Vinol if they do not find it entirely
satisfactory.

MOTHERS.

Mothers are the queerest things.
Member when John went away,
All but mother cried and cried
When they said goodbye that day.
She just talked, and seemed to be
Not the slightest bit upset
Was the only one who smiled!
Others eyes were streaming wet.
But when John come back again
On furlough, safe and sound,
With a medal for his deeds
And without single wound,
While the rest of us hurrahed,
Laughed and joked and danced about,
Mother kissed him, then she cried
Cried and cried like all git out.

Our State, the queenly,
Deathless her fame

Fighting her battles,
Men of her melf;-
Now we salute her,

Tender her accents,
Love-lit her eyes
Our State, the regal,
Queen of our hearts,
Maine, Maine, our mother,
Whence our life starts
Crown her with ivy,
Laurel and bay;
Grown her with ciearest
Sunlight of day.
Bright be her scepter,
Bright as her seas
Flashing in sunshine
Under the breeze.
Firm as her mountains
Greeting the day,
Firm as her sea cliffs
Wet with the spray.
So through the ages
Firm be her throne;
Endless her reigning
Over her own.
Ever may whispering
Pine trees around,
Charm her with fragrance,
Soothe her with sound.
Ever may flowers
Spring at her feet;
Song birds flood round her
Melodies sweet
Grand in century's
Triumph she stands;
Grander the present
Filling her hands;
While in the heavens,
Flooding the sky,
Brighter the futures

Where is the State
Swaying more power,
