RATIONAL CURE FOR ECZEMA
No More Dosing the Stomach
Cure the Skin Through
the Skin.

When you have a scratch on your
hand you wash it and cleanse it and
then the skin cures itself. You do
not take blood medicine to cure a
iestered wound.
The best skin specialists today are
agreeded that the only way TO cure
the skin Is through the skin.
The fact that eczema is skin dis
ease and not u blood disease is evi
dent from the statistics which show
that nearly all eczema sufferers are
perfectly healthy In all other ways
except as to their skin. If the ecze
ma patients were really sufferers
from an inward malady, the entire
body and not only the skin would be
diseased.
You can prove Immediately the re.
lief OF true skin cure by using oil Of
wintergreen as compounded In D D
D. Prescription.
This liquid attacks the disease
germs, numbing them while building
up the heslty tissues OF the skin.
have now handled this meritorious
and thoroughly scientific remedy for

Feeding the Dairy Cow in Winter

Next to what 80 feed, the most I'M
portsnt question which arises is,
how much shall the COW be fed. To
Iced economically cows should be FED
as individuals and not as a herd. 1t
is TOO often she case that each COW
In q herd Is fed the same amount OF
grain regardless of how much milk
she is producing. By this practice
feed is not used economically or
some cows will be underied, while
others will be overied.
In feeding animals one should un,
derstand shat she animal always
uses certain amount oil the food it
receives to maintain the body. This
is the first use to which the food If
put and Ia called the ration OF main
tensnce. This amount isrequired by
the animal whether she is producing
milk or not. All feed given above
this amount is used for milk produc.
ton, or Is stored on she body OF the
animal rs fat. In the case OF young
animal part OF this excess is used Tor

ia the more common. 1t is a very
serious mistake to feed cow only
shat required TO keep up her body
and then not Iced her enough IN sd'
dition to produce what milk she can
II a cow declines In weight while Civ
ing milk, 1t shows she Is not receiv'
ing sufficient food, as n good COW 4
not fed enough will produce milk iol
a time at the expense OF her body
that is, she will take the surplu'
flesh from her body and convert II
over into milk and thereby will los,
, in live weight. On the other hand
when COW Ia being overied 1t may
be detected In a short time by thu
fact that she will put on flesh. Thi'
condition may be corrected by Civ
Ing her only the amount she need
and will use for milk production
This means feeding enough to main
tain practically a uniform weight.
In feeding a COW the place to begil
is with the roughness, A cow Is no
contented unless her stomach Is full
She should always have all th
roughness that she Will eat up cleai
and then the amount OF grail
she receives should be regulated b.

may be used and 1t is found to wor
out fairly we'll. Feed one pound
grain for each three pounds or thre

Tothe Editor of The Robesonian:
We highly appreciate the ar
ticle by Col. Odds, reproduced in

some idea of the life of the race
once of Roanoke, now of Rob-

stride of honor for his effort to
bring us nearer to our settlers
and to make US better acquainted
with our history. We see and
begin to feel the approach Of the
spirit of higher attainment and
education and better civilization
and citizenship.
We give most high honor to
our white supporters in our
struggles along this line of pro-
gress. A few days ago at the
Mcmillan Day at Union chapel
notable speeches were delivered
by Hon. Hamilton Mcmillan,
Messrs. Geo. B. Mcleod and M.
G. Mckenzie and Prof. H. L.
Edens. What a stride of honor
we owe these gentlemen! Nc
such men ever lived without the
highest honor.
l want to appeal to every Croa
tan reader of The Robesonian
There was never such a time
in our history for educationa
progress. Let us each one do oul
part in this great and noble
work. Your attention is called
to our normal school. Let u
note the stride our venerabl,
Prof. Edens is trying to pro
mote. We believe he is going t.
help US make a mark.
