WHAT CAUSES DYSPEPSIA?
And incidentally Constipation, Coated
Tongue, Nervousness, Headache,
and Other Symptoms.

Did you ever know that the stomach
Is a churn? That just as soon as
you are done eating, the healthy stom-
ach commences to roll the food
around. and mixes 1t thoroughly with
the juices Of the stomach?
And did you know, dear reader,
that If the stomach is run down or
habby, so that it cannot do the chrun-
ing, that dyspepsia is the result?
If the food is not churned, it lays
heavily on your stomach, turns sour,
and causes all kinds Of distressing
symptoms, such as headache, coated
tongue, contipation, etc.
And so, as every physician will tell
you, the way to cure dyspepsia is to
fix the churn, or in other words, build
up the stomach so that it will proper
ly mix the food.
If you have dyspepsia and want 10
get rid Of it before it gets rid Of you,
go to j. F. w. DeLorme, the druggist,
and get large box Of Mi-o-na tab
lets. The cost is only so cents, and
every reader Of The Item is welcome
to his or her money back If Mi-o-na
does not cure.

Farm Notes.

The Oklahoma Agricultural college
gives In its bulletin these suggestions
about cream, and the cows that fur
ninsh it:
Clean cream, cold cream and rich
cream are the three words which tell
the secret of producing sweet cream.
Be clean and sanitary in milking.
Have all pals, crooks, cans and
daily untensils scalded and clean.
Keep the separator clean by wash
ing after each separating.
Cool each lot Of cream in cool water
before setting 1t away and have It
thoroughly cooled before adding to
the general lot of cream. A good
way Is never to mix a fresh batch Of
cream with older cream. but keep
each lot from the different separating
separate and in one gallon crooks.
Have a well ventilated cave or cool
cellar In which to keep the cream.
Stir each Of the separate lots of
cream every day to keep them uni
form.
Have wire screen for each crock
so as to "air the cream" and keep out
the flies and insects.
Skim a rich cream-S5 to 45 per
cent-and 1t will keep sweet longer.
Deliver the cream to the creamery
or receiving station three times a week
In summer and twice a week in win
ter.
Insist on the creamery man weigh
Ing out the sample Of cream for a test
Instead Of measuring in pipette. The
scales are more accurate.
Have the COWS come fresh in Sep
tember and October, and receive 25
to 80 cents a pound for the butter fat
In winter instead Of Is to 20 cents q
pound in summer.
Maks study Of the herd OF COWS
select the best, sell the poor ones, buy
or raise more good ones, grow more
cow peas and alfalfa hay for winter
feeding. and make the COWS keep you
Instead OF you keeping the cows.

the standard.
