Shipment of Dressed Fowls,

1t is common saying that the mar
ket is never over-stocked with the best
and this is probably correct. Whenever
the market is over-st ocked il begins at
the poorest quality to reject. II the
market does not reject the low quality,
it at once reduces the price o point
below cost of production and market
ing. Therefore the only people that
stand chance of making money are
those that send TO market good prod
ucts in good shape. In way markets
are always over-st ocked. except in
times OF special scarcity. But the mar
ket is never over-stocked with choice
fowls. Great Joss to the producers re-
suits from the manner in which
fowls are dressed and shipped to mar
ket. One man says that the guam ity of
fowls daily dressed and sent to market
in an unstable condition is enormous.

Brain Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent author
tiles. They have dispelled the silly
notion that one kind of food is needed
for brain, another for muscles, and still
another for bones. correct diet will
not only nourish a particular part of the
body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet, however good your food may
be, its nutriment is destroyed by in
digestion or dyspepsia. You must pre-
pare for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular doses of
Greene's August Flower, the favorite
medicine of the healthy millions. A few
doses aids digestion, stimulates the liver
to healthy action, purifies the blood
and makes you feel buoyant and vigor

Are often capable

OF their affirmation making up for lack
of argument and want of evidence.
Aud the worst of all doginatists are
those doctors who, barking back to some
old dogma of the schools, insist that
certain patients are beyond all medical
help because, forsooth, their diseases
are beyond the limited medical know

Golden Medical Discovery" That state
inent. varied sometimes in form but
expressions found in the letters of those

Sometimes the statement runs III was
given up by four DOCTORS" showing a
desperate effort to find relief in local
practitioners. But however the story
begins, it almost invariably ends with
the statement, III am perfectly cured by
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery"
Persons suffering from "weak" lungs,
hemorrhages, deep seated cough, ema-
citation and weakness, have been restored
to perfect health by the Discovery"
The philosophy of the cures effected
by this marvellous medicine is not hard
to understand. Life is sustained by
food, digested and assimilated. The
basis of health is good appetite and
sound digestion. In almost all cases of
disease loss of appetite is an early symp-
tom, and this is promptly followed by
wasting of the flesh. For some cause
the food eaten is not being converted
into nutrition and the body and its or
gans, being starved. must grow weak.
There is only one way to get strength
and that is by food. DR.. Pierces Golden
Medical Discovery heals diseases of the
stomach and allied organs of digestion
and nutrition, so enabling the body to
assimilate the needed nourishment.
Thus various forms of weakness" So
called, are cured by the Discovery
"weak" lungs, rweak" heart, rweak"
nerves, cweak" or sluggish liver etc.,
because the organs are made strong by
food, which is perfectly digested and
assimilated after the 'Discovery" has
healed the diseases of the stomach and
associated organs of digestion and nu-
