There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
local disease and prescribed local rem
edies, ana by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to
be constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional trea ment. Halls
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by f. j.
Cheney & Co.. Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. 1t is
taken internally in doses from 10 drops
to a teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on the
blood and n ucous surfaces of the sy stem.

case it fails to cure. Send for circulars

The M organ Horse.

So much interest has been shown of
late in breeding and registering Morgan
horses, that there appears to be quite
general desire that items of interest re-
garding registrations and transfers of
Morgan horses appear from week to
week in the Register. The letter from
Mr.. C. C. Stillman, New York city,
given below illustrates the desire which
is shared by a good many to keep in
touch with the Morgan interests. We
are willing to devote a reasonable
amount of space to Morgan horse items
that are of general interest and shall
rely on our friends to send in such.
Direct such communications to Middle
bury Register, Morgan Horse Depart
ment, Middlebury, VT.
New York, March 18, 1912.
Prof. Thos. E. Boyce,
Middlebury VT.
Dear Sir
In reply to your letter of the 18th,
about registrations and Morgan Horse
items appearing in the Middlebury
Register, l beg TO advise you that
several members of The Morgan Horse
club have felt keenly the lack of
any paper being devoted to Morgan
Horse interests. Since the New
England Farmer has changed hands,
the page devoted to the Morgan Horse
has sadly deprecated.
We need to have some paper in which
to publish items of interest to Morgan
Horse breeders, and | see no reason
why the Middlebury Register would not
prove very serviceable as an organ of
that character.
Yours truly.
C. C. STILLMAN.
The Government is going to expert
ment in raising Morgans for the army.
| We think without doubt this will be a
success. No horses of better constitu-
ton or of more endurance can be found
than the Morgans. They proved them
selves in the Civil War to be the best
cavalry horses in the army. In the
old stage coach days no horses were
found equal to the Morgans for pulling
a heavy load and making fast time.
Morgans of the present can be bred and
reared so as to equal the best of former
times.
