GROWS HAIR
AND WE CAN PROVE

AND WE CAN PROvEIT.
Hair troubles. like many other dis
eases have been wrongly diagnosed
and altogether misunderstood. The
hair 1t self is not the thing to be treat
ed, for the reason that it is simply a
propuct of the scalp and wholly de-
pendent upon its:action. The scalp
Is the very soil in which the hair is
produced, nutured and grows, and it
alone should receive the attention if
results are to be expected. 1t would
do no earthly good to treat the stem
Of q plant with view of making it
grow and become more beautiful the
soil in which the plant grows must be
attended to. Therefore, the scalp in
which the hair grows must receive the
attention If you expect it to grow
and become more beautiful. #
Loss Of hair is caused by the scalp
drying up, or loOsing it's supply Of
moisture or nutriment: when bald
ness occurs the scalp has simply lost
all it's nourlshment, leaving nothing
for the hair to feed upon, a plant or
tree would die under similar condi-
lions, sSsbG y
The natural thing to dosin either
case, is to replenish the soil.or scalp
as the case may be, and your crop
win grow and multiply as nature
intended 1t should.
Hildredina Hair Remedy makes the
scalp clean, healthy and wholesome.
ltQuickly penetrates the pores and
stimulates the hair glands and scalp
tissues thereby promoting the
growth of the hair.
Its action is quick and the hair

lection breeders of other beef breeds
have succeeded in producing great
mixers as well. and 1t is not claimed
that the Shorthorn Is the only beef
bred animal that is capable Of satis-
factory milk production. 1t is claimed.
however, that the Durham COW of Eng
land Is the dairy. COW in certain dis
tricts and that she has inherited per-
haps more than any other cow Of the
beef breeds the milk producing tend
ency.
Hereford cows have made go.,d rec
ords as milk producers when care and
selection have been practiced to this
end. Angus cows have equally good
records. and some of them may have
been equal in performance to the Short
horns of which records have been kept.
There does not seem to be. however.
any special milking history behind the
beef breeds Of today other than the
Shorthorn.
From paper recently read by Will
liam Ernst Of Nebraska we excerpt
the following:
Il want to state the fact that in Or
der to produce large milking Short
horns we have not been compelled
to sacrifice either the size or the easy
feeding qualities of our herd Our
cows weigh in ordinary flesh from 1900
to 1.6OO pounds. and most of them hold
their flesh remarkably well during the
heavy flows of milk
1T Is q we'll known fact that the
milking habit is one which may lie
dormant If neglected and which is yet
susceptible of cultivation to a remark
able degree. At present large por-
ton Of Shorthorn breeders devote their
attention rather to the developmnt of
the feeding and feshing qualities Of
their stock at the expense of the milk
making proclivities. This is q point
which needs attention. 1t Is a well
known fact that the best mixers. as a
rule. prove the best mothers. rear the
best calves and thus become the most
reliable sources Of profit in the herd.
A typical Shorthorn COW requires no
wet nurse for her calf, and by a ju-
dicious system Of selection and man.
agement any good breeding herd may
become noted for its milk as well as
for its beef In this fact lies the chief
glory Of the Shorthorn."
