not better our metz DDS of our own
initiative, why not take pride in i'm
proving our own lands? Why not do
that which will build up our farms
and increase their productivity-and
our profits?
The growing population must be
fed-and needs meat; the soil must
be improved and made to produce
greater crops-and needs manure;
and farmers need greater profits
which careful stock raising will alone
insure.
Get into the stock business-there
was never a better time. Talk to
your banker-he will help you start.
There are no better loans than cattle
loans. Don't worry about the mar
kets-the man who loses is a specula-
tor. Feed your stock, ship them when
they are ready to market-be gener-
Gus to the earth which yields you her
harvest and sure and rich reward
will be yours.
There is world shortage of live
stock, especially cattle. The popula-
Iions of all civilized nations are grow
ing much faster than the general
meat food supply. South American
live stock interests are crippled by
three successive seasons of drought
and foot and mouth" disease, and
the supply of meat animals in the
United States has actually declined
during the last decade while the pop
ulation has increased over 81 per
cent.
Crops of grain and forage are
bountiful in this country, and the ma
ton is prosperous, at peace with the
world, with practically everybody
employed and both able and willing
to live we'll.
No better opportunity for highly
successful and profitable stock rails
ing was ever offered to the farmers
of the United States than that now
presented by the present very mod
crate prices for pure-bred animals
with which to improve foundation
stock, and prevailing high prices for
all meat animals having proper mar
ket quality and finish, while all con-
ditions surrounding the industry
point to these higher prices as un-
doubtedly permanent.

Why a Nest-Egg Encourages Hen.

Why Nest-Egg Encourages Hen.
There is still great deal of super
stition about poultry matters, and
the real purpose of nest-eggs comes
in for Its full share of comment.
No the ordinary china nest egg
does not make the hens lay white
eggs, nor lay more of any kind, nor
teach the hen to sit.
A nest-egg merely encourages a
hen to lay another egg in the same
place, thus preventing her from steal
ing her nest The maternal instinct
of hen leads her to try to lay a
nest full of eggs, on which she can
sit II natures plan is not disturbed
by gathering the eggs.-Farm and
Fireside.

WHY BANK YOUR MONEY?

Some of the reasons are that mOn- ey in the bank is less likely to be spent foolishly, will not be lost acci- dentally and best of all the possession of a bank account is uncOnsciously an inspiration to add to ones savings.

THE REASON WHY.

Why is it a good plan to buy your groceries of Frank Griebel, 21S w Wash? Because he keeps standard goods, and his stock is fresh: his store is not so large that he has to pay out large sums for rental and clerk hire; his store is conveniently located on the main street near the center of the city, and he has been doing business here so long that ev- cry one knows he is reliable. His patrons get the benefit of these req sons.
