THE STOMACH in WINTER
Hearty Food Puts Extra Strain on
This Important Organ.

Winter Is little more than halt
over, and the results of its hearty food
are shown In the variable appetite
nausea, gnawing at the pit of the
stomach, heartburn, sallow skin
furred tongue, headache, backache
and sleeplessness. The stomach has
been overworked, the nervous system
Is unstrung, the blood is in bad condi-
ton, the digestive organs are tired
out.
It is at this season of the year that
Mona, the only remedy known that
gives strength to the stomach and di'
gestive organs, is of especial value.
Mi-o-na Is not a hit-or-miss cure
but is an unusual combination of rem.
edies that makes it infallible in re.
storing health to the stomach and di,
gestive system. 1t overcomes any
acid condition that may be present in
the stomach and intestines, soothes
and heals the irritated mucous mem.
brane, has stimulating effect on the
solar-plexus, and combines peculiar
properties that strengthen the nerves
of the stomach and puts the whole df-
gestive system in so healthy, clean
and sweet state that fermentation OF
the food cannot exist, any disease
germs in the stomach will be de.
stroyed, and the digestive system will
be so strengthened that it will extract
from the food all the elements that
make solid bone, firm muscle, and
pure blood. 1t is guaranteed cure
for all diseases of the stomach, ex
cepting cancer.
The guarantee on Mona is given
by one of our best known druggists
w. L. Sargent, who agrees to refund
the price, SO cents, should Mona not
give perfect satisfaction. Ask him to
show you the guarantee he gives with

THE LARGE BARN.

While the large barn will give the
most room and conveniences for the
money invested, it is still an open ques-
ton whether throughout the northwest
1t is good policy to build such barns.
The risk from fire, lightning. and cy-
elones is SO great and the loss Of such
barns from these causes usually SO
complete as to building and its contents
that we should hesitate long before
building this sort Smaller buildings,
isolated from each other. would seem
to be the better and safer way to pro-
vide barn accommodation for the farm.

RAD EGGS.

There is a phase of moral weakness
connected with the fine farms Of the
northwest which it seems almost Inn
possible to eradicate, and that is the
hardened indifference with which bad
eggs are worked off on the local mer-
chants. Eggs added, eggs half hatch
ed and eggs in all stages of decay and
decomposition are mixed up with fresh
hen fruit and the chances taken on the
ability Of the buyer to detect the bad
from the good. This is dirty. dishon-
est business. People who do this would,
did not the law prevent, sell the car
cass of diseased animal to the local
butcher. There should be morality in
the egg business as well as in all 9TH
er business transactions.

THE TrmBERED FARM.

There are plenty of young men who
are looking for cheap land, and, for
that matter, men who are not SO very
young. Good, cheap land is scarce and
becoming scarcer each year. Most Of
these seekers for land want prairie and
shun the timbered tracts of cheap land,
leaving such for Scandinayians, Poles
and Bohemians to develop. While the
prairie farm can be more readily and
quickly brought into cultivation, these
timbered farms of northern Minnesota
and Wisconsin are not to be sneezed
at by any means. For the man with
limited means such land offers many
advantages, among which is the Ger.
tainty Of being able to get employ
ment all winter, either by cutting and
marketing the timber on his own land
or by working for the lumber compa-
MES. He is also sure Of a good home
market for all the stuff he has to sell,
such as hay, poultry, eggs, vegetables
and the like He can build his house
and outbuildings with an az and
saw from the material on his own
place. He has an abundance Of cheap
fuel and II anything of sportsman
can secure much good food from tho
woods, lakes and rivers. The most
thrifty farming communities of the
west can be found in those sections
where the land was originally covered
by dense forest. We noticed few
days ago an advertisement offering
160 acres Of heavy timber land lying
on one Of those beautiful Minnesota
lakes for sale at the seemingly low
price Of $10.25 per acre. 1t seemed to
us that there was a chance worth pick
ing up by some enterprising young fell
low, for, while it would take matter
Of fifteen or twenty years to put such
tract into well cultivated farm, he
would be getting steady income from
the timber on his place and would be
at small outlay for machinery and
hired help. Minnesota has much good
land OF this character which it will
pay the man with small means to look
into.
