modern tonic has proved az success
full In the United States as In Europe.
and many thousands OF Americans
have been built up and restored to
health by this medicine.
The physicians who introduced
iona Vita in this country are n
thusiastic over the remarkable sue
cess OF the medicine and those who
have been restored TO health are also
exceedingly willing to tell what their
experience has been. Mrs. Smith. OF
Rochester. y. Y. a trained nurse for
sixteen years and a graduate OF Belle
u hospital. New York City, says:
MY duties as a nurse. together
With other cares have kept me SO
closely engaged that ! have had no
opportunity TO take sufficient rest and
during the past yea this has told on
health. My nerves began to trou-
bic me. have not been sleeping we'll

Lees Rhubarb Laxative IS another
fine preparation. II is used as an
assistant TO iona Vita in cases or
constipation. II Is a high class lam
lily laxative especially recommended
for children. Rhubarb is the safest
and best laxative agent known. IL
strengthens and tones up the bowels

Grand Forks, June 13.-That
the North Dakota Better Farm
ing association is to fill a field
of great usefulness in the state
is the opinion of the very great
majority of those who are
watching it's work. The coun-
ties in the state that have or
ganized and are cooperating
with the association are well
pleased with the plan and the
farmers are taking advantage
of the service offered.
At a recent meeting of the
field men of the association,
reports were made that showed
that there are 382 co-operators,
representing a total of 2, 2,733
acres of land in the state,
demonstration work being car
ried on on that scale at the
present time. Since April 1,
there have been eighty-nine
field meetings conducted by
the experts, and they have ad-
dressed 4,O0O people in those
meetings.
BY the close of the year it is
expected that there will be H.
600 co-operators and that there
will be about $1,000 acres of
land under the direction of the
experts.
To put North Dakota on the
map as an alfalfa state is one
of the objects sought by the
association. The increase of
the corn industry is another,
and in working out these OBJ
jects, the association this year
will have 1000 acres of alfalfa
under its direction and about
10, 600 acres of corn. In Grand
Forks county alone, the in
crease in these two crops since
the organization of the associa-
,tion 10 figured at more than
twenty-five per cent.

In tho Poultry Yard

Never sell eggs unless they
are clean and look inviting.
The sooner the eggs are utilized
during the hot weather the
better.
Don't tolerate a sick or all
ing bird around the premises.
Either isolate it or remove it's
head with an axe.
Keep a record of the number
of eggs gathered each day. At
the end of the year you will
have some valuable informa-
ton on what your birds are
actually doing.
Keep the drinking water for
the fowls in the shade. Don't
allow any stagnantfoods around
the yards but furnish good,
cool, refreshing water. The
hens will show their apprecia-
ton by fuller egg basket.
Remember that a male bird
is not necessary for the produc-
ton of eggs.
Dry feeding of chicks will be
found much more satisfactory
than wet. sloppy feeds.
Feed the small chicks little
and often.-Farm, Stock &

Steady Gain In FIaxseed

Grand Forks, Jnne 13.-The
North Dakota acreage devoted
to flaxseed has increased from
773, 900 acres in 1899 to 1,B5, :
239 acres in. 1909, or 37.6 per
cent. The increase during the
past decade. though not SO
large as that for the one pre-
ceding, is steady and consist
ent with the immense gain in
the other crops. The total pro-
duction in 1909 was 10, 319, ,O62
bushels, the average yield per
acre 10 bushels, and the aver
age value per acre, $3.50
