of the California Fig Syrup Co. and the
scientific attainments of it's chemists have
rendered possible the production of Syrup
of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA, in all of its
excellence, by obtaining the pure medic
inal principles of plants known to act most
benefcially and combining them most
skillfully, in the right proportions, with
its wholesome and refreshing Syrup of
California Figs.
As there is only one genuine Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of SIENNA and as the gen.
uine is manufactured by an original
method known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, it is always necessary to buy the
genuine to get its beneficial effects.
A knowledge of the above facts enables
one to decline limitations or to return them

GOOD CHANGE.
Coffee to Postum,

The large army of persons who have
found relief from many chronic all
ments by changing from coffee to Post
um as daily beverage is growing
each day.
1t is only a simple question of try
ing it for oneself in order to know the
joy of returning health as realized by
an Ills. young lady. She writes:
II had been a coffee drinker nearly
all my life and it affected my stom-
ach--caused insomnia and | was sell

about Postum and how beneficial it
was, so concluded to quit coffee and
try it.
II was delighted with the change.

Storms Affect Cows.

Ever know that a COW is a pretty
good barometer? Well, she is. Cows
always check up on their milk flow
just before a decided change from fine
weather to storms. They also become
nervous just before storm, and by
watching them closely one can tell ev-
cry time when bad weather is coming.
AS soon as the storm breaks the COWS
again become normal, their nervous
ness disappears and the milk flow re-
turns

Mules Mean Money.

Some people have the idea that d
mule will not respond to kind treat
ment. This is a sad mistake. A good
mule is just about as good as cash in
the bank any season in the year. A
thoroughbred jack generally proves
better investment than a stallion. First
class jacks are very scarce and that is
one reason why mule breeding is slow.

Impurities of Grass and Clover
Seed Sold i'm Virginia.

At this time of the wear, farmers
are ordering grass and clover seed for
seeding with grain i'm October, after
corn, or for seeding alone after grain
or other crops in August (Which is
usually found preferable). Farmers
have long believed that many weeds
are brought to the farm rs impurities
in grass and clover seed. a bulletin
just received from the tate Experi-
ment station reports an examination
of many samples of grass and clover
seed bought in various sections of
Virginia. Some OF the samples were
very inferior. One of the red clover.
for example, contained over 9 per
cent. of weed seeds, chiefly dock,
sorrel, plantain and dodder. four of
the worst weeds on Virginia farms.
The bulletin concludes: Some verv
inferior seed is being sold i'm the state
but, rs whole, the general character
OF the seed is much better than is
commonly supposed. The chief cause
of poor seed is the demand for chean
see regardless of quality. In order
to save few cents when buying n
bushel of seed, farmers frequently
lose much more than that in the crop
II farmers would insist on having
pure seed and be willing TO pay
slightly higher price for which il
must be sold, more seedsmen would
be glad TO handle only pure seeds"
