A Reply to Mr.. Goodson.
LEON. Iowa. Oct. III. 100

LEON, Iowa, Oct. IL, 1901.
EDITOR REPORTER: = The statement
which l made in your Office October in
regard to calves dying after being vacci.
mated for blackleg is something that in
terests every farmer in the state. Nearly
every farmer that reads the Chicago
papers has read accounts of calves dying
in Illinois, supposed to have been caused
by vaccinating for blackleg. Having
read these articles, then these calves
dying after vaccination, some of them
the eighth day, thought there might
be something in it, as one party lost
four head, two dying inside of three
days and two inside of nine; calves
which had never been sick before; no
blackleg having been on the farm for a
number of years. There has not been
much blackleg in this neighborhood this
fall, only five head dying prior to the
vaccination, no party losing over one.
Never made the statement to hurt Mr..
Goodson's practice, did not say who
did the work or what they died with;
did not even think he was to blame;
but he seems to think from his article in
last weeks paper ard his attack on my
integrity that it was personal attack
on his method of treatment; but these
are the facts as near az l can get al
them. Thus the question is, Is it safe tt
vaccinate for blackleg?
l lost calf this morning which wa:
vaccinated for blackleg September II.

QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes, August Flower has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers
and grandmothers never thought
of using any thing else for indi-
gestion or biliousness. Doctors
were scarce and they seldom
heard of Appendicitis, Nervous
Prostration or Heart, failure, etc.
They used August Flower to clean
out the system and stop fermenta-
ton of undigested food, regulate
the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of
the system, and that is all they
took when feeling bad and dull
with headaches and other aches
