POSTUM FOR MOTHERS
The Drink That NOurishes and Sup
plies Food For Mother and Child.

my husband has been unable to
drink coffee for several years, so We
were very glad to give Postum trial
and when we understood that long
boiling would bring out the delicious
favour, we have been highly pleased
with it.
"It is one of the finest things for
nursing mothers that I have ever
seen. 1t keeps up the mothers
strength and increases the supply OF
nourishment for the child if partaken
of freely. 1 drank it between meals
instead of water and found it most
beneficial.
"Our five-year-old boy has been
very delicate since birth and has de-
veloped slowly. He was white and
bloodless. l began to give him Post
UNI freely and you would be surprised
at the change When any person
remarks about the great improve
ment, we never fail to tell them that
we attribute his gain in strength and
general health to the free use of
Postum and this has led many friends
to use it for themselves and chill
dren.
II have always cautioned friends
to whom have spoken about Postum
to follow directions in making It.
for unless it is boiled fifteen or
twenty minutes, 1t is quite tasteless.
On the other hand, when properly
made, it is very delicious. l want to
thank you for the benefits we have
derived from the use of your

THE BIBLE THE BEST SELLER.
The Enormous Demand for Il 10
Steadily Maintained.

The sale of the average popular
book usually shrinke within year.
Few works of science, particularly in
this day of eager research and start
ling discovery, have permanent val
ue. A medical text book of two de-
cades ago is absolutely valueless save
as a literary curiosity. But there
Is one book that always sells, and OF
which a single publication house in
New York has actually issued over
eighty million copies. That, of course,
is the Bible.
Mr. Day Allen Wiley. in saying
that it is absolutely true that
in America the yearly sale of the
Scriptures are still more than those
Of the leading book Of fiction, has just
explained that only comparatively
few copies ever reach the book
stores; most Of them go direct from
the bindery to men and women who
mako their living carrying them from
house to house in city, village and
country" The publication house re-
ferred to, 1t Is almost needless to say,
is the famous Bible House, which con.
tinues to issue books at the rate OF
a million year.
1T is interesting to learn that they
are printed in over fifty languages
ranging from Arapafoe to Visayan-

lions of the society, which was found
ed nearly a century ago, the whole or
some portion of the Bible is printed

1907. for instance, thirty thousand
went to Massachusetts, ten thousand
to California, 105, 900 to Illinois, 1851
900 to Pennsylvania, Mr.. Wiley says
that most of the books sent to this
state were wanted in the mining and
manufacturing districts, and he adds:

the sales have been increasing. -

Money in Feeding Young Steers.


am now feeding thirty-one head
of two-year-old steers which were
rejected in my fall sales on account
OF the quality not being up to the
standard required for four-cent cat
tie, the price realized for what sold.
These cattle, until the first of Feb
ruary, were simply fed ensilage ana
shredded fodder in such quantities
as to hold their fall weight, without
any additional gain, and on February
1st l added grain rations composed
Of one-fourth corn and cob meal,
one-fourth shorts, one-fourth bran
and one-fourth cottonseed meal.
In forty days from the time 1
commenced feeding grain l weighed
up the cattle and they weighed 49,
100 pounds, so by deducting their
weight of February LIST, 29,53o
pounds, we have gain of 1860
pounds-an average of nearly three
pounds to the head per day.
The ensilage is composed OF equal
parts of corn and sorghum we'll ma
tured 1t is my purpose to continue
feeding ensilage, hay and grain for
while and then turn them on blue
grass, continuing the grain feed and
increasing according to the Increased
weight of the cattle.
I did not weigh up the grain left
on March -, but expect to do so
and report the total result at the end
of the feeding period.
In addition to the foregoing bunch
of cattle, l am also feeding zoo head
of what we call the long yearlings. 1
fed this lot on shredded fodder, hay,
oats and wheat straw without any
grain until March l, since which
time have been giving them a small
feed of grain. They seem to be

but have lost some weight. My ex-
perience is that young cattle fed in
this way seem to do better in the
spring when turned on grass than
when fed so much grain.

Vhy Chickens Need Much Water.

More than sixty-five per cent. OF
every egg is water. Water also makes
up fifty-tive per cent, of the hens
body. Unless a hen has water she
cannot digest her food. True, all
foods contain some water Veget-
ables contain a great deal, but all
these sources will not be sufficient
TO more than supply the bodily wants.
Much water is used in digesting the
food and much passes off in breath
ing. Many hen that is otherwise
we'll fed fails to lay because she is
compelled to go without water.
When laying freely flock of fifty
hens will drink from four to eight
quarts of water eaoL day.

quality IN Chickens.
The day OF the scrubby hen is
gone forever. There hardly seems
any necessity for an argument on this
point, for any one who has ever UNI
derstood the true value of standard
bred poultry will never be satisfied
with any other kind. If nothing else
were involved than the mere appear
ance, any one can appreciate the diff
ference between vigorous, large
sized, uniformly beautiful, standard
bred fowls and flock of scrubby,
scrawny, ugly hens which look as if
"hey W.; not worth scratching for,
and are :. poor as they look. A flock
of puro-s-ed poultry is ar ornament
to any lawn or farm yard, but this is
not the main difference between them
and their rundown cousins. Stand
ard-bred poultry will produce more
eggs than can be obtained from the
common barn-yard stock, and the
eggs will be more valuable for the
simple reason that during Matching
time you will have no trouble in dis
posing of them for at least double
the market price.
When we consider it costs just as
much in food, time, labor, buildings,
etc, to hatch out and raise to ma
turity scrubby chickens that, when
grown, will weigh but three and a
haf pounds per hen and five pounds
per cock, as 1t does to hatch and
raise to maturity pure-bred poultry
that will weigh seven pounds per hen
and ten pounds per cock. A we'll
bred fowl requires no more food than
a barnyard fowl. 1t requires no
more time and no more labor, but
the result is twice as great. Is it
not foolish, then, to waste your
buildings, your time, your labor and
your money on rundown stock, when
both pleasure and profit lie in the
pure-bred stock?
1t is the start that counts very
largely in any successful undertake
ing.
Certainly this is true in poultry
raising Therefore start right. 1t is
better to begin on right lines than
to repair mistakes later.
1t is easy to start wrong in the
xDure-bred poultry business.
1t is just as easy to make a fair
beginning. You do not have to have
large grounds nor expensive build
ings.
To begin on large scale will, IN
most cases, cost a good deal OF
money. And sometimes this money
is thrown away. Usually it is better
to begin at the beginning. Here is
business that is open to almost every
one. There is no danger that poul
try raising will ever be monopolizeo
by a trust.
Usually the best place to begir
with poultry is right where you are
living, right now. There is a gol6
mine in that little plot behind the
house. There is money in poultry IL
every part of this country, though o
course some parts are better adapted
to poultry culture than others.

but they are still so fresh that it

condition much loSssr when it has

claimed that males running with the
flock annoy the hens SO that the like
lihood of big egg yield is reduced,
though reliable data on this point
are scarce. There are certain dis
eases spread through the flock by
males, which are spread but little IN
any other way; and while these dis
eases are not usually of a serious
nature, they are at least undesirable
