EXTENT OF SWINE INDUSTRY.
One of the Chief Resources Of Agrl-
cultural Wealth.

one OF tnc OnlcI MOSQUITOES u H8fi-
cultural Wealth.
The swine industry OF the United
States is feature of resources that
figures high in the agricultural wealth
of our country. To the hog. more than
any other influence, are we indebted
for the finely improved farms and
beautiful cities that have, as by magic,
spread out over the vast area OF agri-
cultural lands from Ohio in the east
TO the Missouri valley in the west. The
civilizing influence OF the corn crop
has changed the millions of acres OF
wild prairie lands to the fertile, culti-
waited fields, rich with the clovers,
grasses and improved crops OF modern
agriculture. Without the hog this
great district of agricultural lands, ~
ing in the center of what is known as
the corn belt, could never have at
tanned its present distinction Of wealth
and business reputation. AS factor
in wealth production the hog is Justly
entitled to the distinction of the pio-
neer" among our meat-producing ami
mails. The American hog has fastened
his hold so firmly, not only upon our
own people, but upon those of almost
every country on the globe, that the
industry of swine raising is OF neces-
sity made as progressive in its In
crease of production as the increase
of population demanding pork produc-
tion.-Nebraska Farmer.

use Peruna for other ailments. The
reason for this is, most other ailments
begin with a cold.
Using Peruna to promptly cure colds
he protects his family against other

This is exactly what every other

LET US help YOU TO HEALTH, p
Dodson's Pharmacy Want Every Ca
tarrh Sufferer to Use Hyomei
and Be Cured.

Statistics show us that at least 81 out
of every 100 persons in this state suffer
from catarrh in sumo form.
While the disease is one of the most
common, it is also one of the most dan
gerous and offensive, leading to con-
sumption and other diseases of the re-
spiratory organs.
Prior to the discovery of Hyomei and
its introduction In this section by Dod-
sons Pharmacy, every method of treat
ment had been found worthle 80.
The discovery of Hyomei and it's
growing popularity has already reduced
the percentage of those suffering from
catarrh. This wonderful remedy is the
simplest and most pleasant of treat
ments. Put 20 drops of Hyomei In the
pocket inhaler that comes with every
outfit, and breathe 1t for few minutes
four times day. Relief will be seen
after the first treatment and q complete
cure will soon follow, Breathe the
HVomei in this way, and the catarrhal
germs even in the most remote air cells
are destroyed. The irritated mucous
membrane Is soothed and healed, and
perfect health restored.
DodsOn's Pharmacy says to all catarrh
sufferers, "Let them help you to health,
they are COZ fdent Hyomei will cure, sc
confident, in fact that they guarantees
to refund your money ifssit fails. A com
plete outfit costs but 81, and If it does
not help You. your money will be re-
