pointed to find that heir family phy-

fore medicine could be procured or d
physician summoned. The right way
is TO keep at hand a bottle OF Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. No physician can pre-
scribe better medicine for these dis
eases. BY having 1t in the house you

A Fine Herd of Hogs.

Brief mention was made in the
REPUBLICAN last week that Willis
Caldwell had received a fine lot of
Duroc-Jcrsey hogs on Wednesday.
On Tuesday of this week we
had the pleasure of seeing this
consignment of hogs-twenty-
two in number-and in saying
they are undoubtedly the finest
bunch of Duroc-Jerseys hogs ever
brought to Custer county is not
putting it any stronger than the
facts will warrant.
They were bred and raised at
Raglan, Nebraska, and purchased
by Mr.. Caldwell at public sale at
Aurora. Mr.. Caldwell did not
purchase for the purpose of selling
again for profit, but as neu-
clus to establish herd of Duroc-
Jerseys which he can claim as
being equal to the best or better
than any in the state.
In the herd are four boars-
three last springs and one year
ling-and each of them is fine
specimen of animal, the yearling
being we'll worth the time spent
in going to Mr.. Cadwell's farm
to see.
