Stock Food Swindle.

The Progressive Farmer, Raleigh, N
c., sounds a note of warning to the
farmers of the South, about what it
calls the stock food Swindle 1t says
that one of the most outrag geous frauds
now being perpetrated upon the
American farmer is that of prepared
stock foods common meal, bran, etc,
with little cheap sulphur, salt, Ep-
som salts, pepper. saltpeter, etc. added
to change the taste, and the mixture
(hardly more valuable than ordinary
shipstuff), put up in flaming packages,
advertised in big illustrated ads in
farm papers, and sold to gullible farm
ers at from $3.50 to $500 ton. The
Progressive Farmer says further. that

some time ago, the chief Southern con-
tributor of one of the farm papers
most largely circulated in North Caro-
lima and adjoining states, wrote an
exposure of the whole miserable fraud
and sent it to his paper. The reply
came back: 1.-The Blank Stock Food
Company pays us $1,000 a year for ad-

Progressive Farmer proposes to do.

planned of. we hope the exposure will
be of Il nature as to protect the farm

All the ingredients entering into
DR.. Pierce's FavOrite Prescription are
printed in plain English on each bottle
wrapper. DIR. Pierce thereby shows that
he is not afraid to tell his patients just
what this medicine is made of. This
cially designed for the cure of wOman's
peculiar ailments. This Prescription
is also the only woman's medicine sold
through druggists that does not con-
tain large percentage of alcohol; it
contains not a drop.
As an indication of the high esteem
in which the medical profession are
coming to regard the several ingredi-
ents of which DIR. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription, for weak and ailing women
is composed, we have room here to in
,rt only the following:
DIR. John Fyfe, of Saugatuck, Conn.,,
Editor of the Department of Therapeu-
tics in THE ELECTRIC REVIEW says of
Unicorn root (HelOnias DtOica) one of
the chief ingredients of DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription: IA remedy which
invariably acts as a uterine invigOratOr
and always favors a condition which
makes for normal activity of the entire
reproductive system, cannot fail to be
of great usefulness and of the utmost
importance to the general practitioner
of medicine"
rIn Helonias we have medicament
which more fully answers the above
purposes than amy other drug soith
aChich I am acquainted. In the treat
ment of diseases peculiar to women it
is seldom that case is seen which does
not present some indication for this
remedial agent"
"The following are among the lead
ing indications for Helonias: Pain or
aching in the back, with leucorrh9a;
ductive organs of women, mental de-
preston and irritability, associated
with chronic diseases of the reproduc-
tive organs of women, constant sensa-
ton of heat in the region of the kidneys:
menorrhagia, (cfloOdingn) due to a
weakened condition of the reproductive
system; amenorrhHa, arising from or
accompanying an abnormal condition
of the digestive organs and an an@mic
(thin blood) habit; dragging sensations
in the extreme lower part of the abdO-
men,"
If more or less of the above symp-
toms are present, no invalid women
can do better than take DIR. Pierce's

My mother"
A mothers worries are many. She
sometimes fOrgets her own bodily dis
comforts because of her overpOwering
love for the child. She becomes broken
down, sleepless, nervous, irritable and
feels tired from morning until night.
Many mothers of experience can tell you
that at such time they have been re-
ieved, benefited and strengthened and
put into proper health by taking pre-
scription which their mothers had told
them was the best wOman's tonic and
nervine to be taken at such times. DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription has en-
joyed an enviable reputation for over a
third of century. In all that time it
has sold more largely in the Unite
States than any other tonic for wOman's
needs, and to-day it's sales are greater
than ever. DIR. Pierce made up this
prescription from native medicinal roots
without the use of particle of alcohol
and for the single purpose of curing
those diseases peculiar to women and
when there is a lack of wOmanly
strength to bear the burdens of maternal
duty. How few women come to this
critical time with adequate strength.
The reason why so many women sink
under the strain of motherhood is be-
cause they are unprepared. Is pre-
paration then required for mother
hood? asks the young woman. And
every experienced mother answers
-uYes." III unhesitatingly advise ex-
pectant mothers to use Doctor Pierce's
Favorite Prescription" writes Mrs. j.
W. G. Stephens, of Mia, Va. The rea-
son for this advice is that DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription is the best pre-
parative for the maternal function. No
matter how healthy and strong woman
may be, she cannot use "Favorite Pre-
scription" as a preparative for ma
ternity without gain of health and
comfort. But it is the women who are
not strong who best appreciate the great
benefits received from the use of VIA
vorite Prescription" For one thing its
use makes the baby's advent practically
painless. 1t has in many cases reduced
days of suffering to a brief few hours.
1t has changed the period of anxiety
and struggle into time of ease and
comfort.
DUTY WOMEN OWE THEMSELVES.

mere claims not backed by any such
record of cures.

Governor Broward's Request
for g Contributions.

A. number of the Florida news
papers are going into spasms over the
fact that Governor Broward has ask
ed for small contributions for the pur
pose of getting out and mailing liter
allure to the voters of the state refa
tive to his project TO drain the Ever
glades, and not little caustic cr1tf
cism has been inspired by what some
OF the learned writer's intimate is the
impec,niosity of the governor in ask
ing for assistance to further the
scheme, the tenets of which he has
been preaching to the people Of Flor
ida for many years, and which was
the sole platform upon which he was
elected to the high office which he
now holds.
Governor Broward, according to his
own statement, which cannot be
doubted, has expended upwards of
81 500 Of his own funds in an effort to
enlighten the voters Of Florida rela-
tive to the drainage proposition which
he has so much at heart, and IL the
voters of Florida desire TO be en-
lightened regarding his contentious in
the premises there can be no more
objection to their contributing to the
cause than there would be TO con-
tributing for out-and-out campaign
funds.
When the opponents of the plan of
Governor Broward take umbrage at
his call for assistance to enlighten
the public they seem to lose sight of
the fact that they, themselves, accord
ing to their own statements-or at
least the statements of the Florida
News Bureau, which seems to be the
authorized mouthpiece of those who
oppose the plan-have sought and Sc
cured contributions for the purpose
OF defeating the plan to drain the
Everglades, and are now using such
contributions for the purpose of send
ing out all kinds of literature that can
be secured that would tend, either d.
1ectly Or indirectly. to prejudice the
voters against the proposition.
In this connection two old adages
seem to be particularly appropriate
One Is: Those who live in glass
houses should not throw stones" and
the other: 1T makes a big difference
whose OK Is gored."
