''No public library is safe from book
thieves. In the big libraries they have
spoilers to watch men who ask for
rare editions, but in the small libraries

thief before he reaches the door and
ask him If he has not forgotten to have

FIRST CHOICE is HEREFORD.
Todd. OF Adams, Gives Reasons for
His Preference.

A H. Todd, of Adams, is staunch
advocate of the claims of the Here
ford cattle upon the appreciation of
stockmen everywhere. He himself
handles only Hereford grades, of
which he has IS head ready for the
market, which were fattened on al
falfa and grain hay. While the Here
ford grade fattens easier than any
other. yet Mr.. Todd is careful to add
that the best results are from mixed
feeds. The animals mentioned will
average over 1900 pounds. and prob
ably consumed less food to get their
growth and weight than any bunch
Of cattle ever fattened in the county
that were not of Hereford extraction.
Mr. Todd breeds from full-blooded
males, and the present. head of his
herd is a Missouri raised animal.
Mr.. Todd urges recognition of this
claim for the Hereford. both the full
blooded and the grades: that with no
other breed is there such small per
cent of calves lost at birth. This
claim he makes with emphasis, and
as inviting comparison with any other
breed of domestic cattle on earth.
Mr.. Todd owns mountain range
around Meacham, and summers his
stock thereon.

Something In Addition.

well for awhile, but soon all his Gus

Meeting one of them on the street one
day he inquired the cnuse

But what is dot lagniappel' he per-
sisted.
"oh, simply a custom here. When
one buys anything at grocery store
the clerk or proprietor usually gives
lagniappe-that is, little something In
addition"

reflectively and went his way.
The next customer who came in was
served by him in person.
After the package was tied and hand

No More Stomach Troubles.

All stomach trouble is removed
by the use of Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure. 1t gives the stomach per-

rest restores the stomach to
health. You don't have to diet
yourself when taking Kodol Dys-
pepsia Cure. J. D. Erskine of AL
