The Thin Cows.

A great many farmers cows are so
thin in the spring that it takes them
half of the summer to recover from the
bad effects Of the winter. There is an
other reason, and>a very important one,
that COWS should be fed well during
the winter time when they are dry 1t
has been demonstrated that the effect
of poor feeding upon the progeny is
very marked, and one of the reasons
why so many cows are Improbable
mixers is because they were not prop
erly fed when they should have BEEN

Body Raw with Eczema-Discharged
from Hospitals as HopeIess-Cuti-

From the age Of three months until
fifteen years old, my son Owens life
was made intolerable by eczema In It's
worst form. In spite of treatments the
disease gradually spread until nearly
every part of his body was quite raw.
He used to tear himself dreadfully in
hts sleep and the agony he went
through is quite beyond words. The
regimental doctor pronounced the case
hopeless. We had him in hospitals
four times and he was pronounced one
of the worst cases ever admitted.
From each he was discharged as in
curable. We kept trying remedy
after remedy. but had gotten almost
past hoping for cure. Six months
ago we purchased set of Cuticura
Remedies. The result was truly mar
velous and to-day he is perfectly cured.
