PRACTICAL PRES cRlPTI0N
. AGAINST STOMACH ACIDlTY

Nine-tenths of all cases Of stomach
trouble nowadays are caused by too
much acid. Ins the beginning the
stomach itself is not diseased but IL
this acid condition is allowed to con-
tinue, the acid Is very likely to eat
into the stomach walls and produce
stomach ulcers which may render a
radical surgical operation necessary
even to prolong life. Therefore, an
.'acid stomach. Is really a dangerous
condition and should be treated Sc
riously. It is utterly useless to take
pepsin and ordinary stomach tablets.
The excess acid or stomach hyper
acidity must be neutralized by the adj
ministration OF an efficient antacid.
For this purpose the best remedy is
bisurated magnesia taken In teaspoon
full doses Ia q fourth of glass OF
water after each meal. Larger eQuanti-
ties may be used il necessary as 1t is
absolutely harmless. Be sure to ask
your druggist for the bisurated magne-
STA as other forms OF magnesia make
effective mouth washes but they have
not the same action on the stomach as
the bisurated. For sale by Benson,

THE SOUTH AS A FIELD OF BEEF
PRODUCTION

THE native cattle of the south have
cold-blooded scrubs carrying a vari-
able percentage of Jersey blood. They
are small in size and inferior in quail
ty, but they have stamina and the
cows produce good calves when bred
to a beef bull Some of these cows
weighing less than 600 pounds, have
given birth to half breed calves
which have developed into 500 and
500 pound animals at II TO Is months
of age. They usually weigh about 500
to $50 pounds at two years Of age
when raised under average southern
farm conditions. The half breed
calves do not fatten out as well as
calves of higher grade, but if per
mitted to grow until two or three
years of age they finish out as very
good beef animals. The half breed
heifers when bred to beef bulls usual
ly produce excellent calves"
mo section of the country can
raise cattle as cheaply as the south,
and the variety and prices of feeds
ar such that the animals can be eco
nomically finished for the market.
The forage plants, especially sorg,
hum and corn, make such an luxu-
RANT growth in the southern attitudes
that large YIELDS of silage can be pro-
duced per acre. The use of silage is
an excellent feed for wintering the
breeding herd, or for finishing the
animals for market. The use Of silage
in a fatening ration almost inyarl-
ably increases the size of the daily
gains, cheapens the grain, lengthens
the period during which cattle can
be fed cottonseed meal economically
and without danger, and results in
better profits per head. The leguml-
nous hays as cawpea, lespedza. beg

ahead of all breeds as a range animal,
over all breeds in the feed-lot, as they
finish out very smoothly, are
high in quality and kill out a high
percentage of marketable meat. The
Devon is slower of growth than the
other breeds, but are great rustlers
and fatten on pastures which are SO
thin that some of the beef breeds
could hardly subsist The Red Polled
is maui purpose breed which ranks
next to the milking strain of Short
horns in the production of milk and
beef. They are not as well known,
nor as popular as the Shorthorn, but
have done well wherever tried in the
south. Any of the breeds cross well
with the native cattle and can be
used advantageously in breeding up
the scrub herds.
by the eradication of the cattle
tick, the use of good, pure bred beef
bulls, the improvement of the pas
ture lands. and a close study of the
cattle business, the south will develop
into a great cattle raising section,
and should contribute largely to the
supply of meat in the next two de-
cades. In no case should high priced,
high-bred stock be brought from tick
free territory until the farm upon
which they ire to be kept has been

CHICAGO BIENNIAL TO PLAN
GENERAL DRESS REFoRM

! AT the time of the biennial con-
vention of the General Federation of
Women's Clubs in Chicago, June 9.1e.
there will be conference on the
Relation of the Club to the Ccmrnu-
nifty" at which a resolution will be
presented concerning the subject of
'dress."
Mrs. Mary /. Wood, of Portsmouth,
N. H., head of the bereau of inforn:a
ton, has written the following letter
to all presidents of clubs affiliated
with the general federation.
"over and over again, especially
during the past welve months, the
subject of women's dress has been
brought to my attention. Women naye
written to me, both personally and as
manager of the bureau of informa.
ton of the General Federation of
Women's Clubs, complaining that they
were unable any longer to buy skirts
which did not hinder locomotion:
men have stopped me on the streets
to call my attention to some specially
noticeable costume and have asked if
there was not something that could
be done about this; social workers
have discussed in my presence the
effect which dress has upon morals;
advocates of the dance have urged
that proper dressing would go far
toward overcoming the evil of i'm
proper dancing; these and many
others have brought the matter to my
attention, and each and all with the
request that the club women take
some atcion in the matter.
Influenced by these things, and
moved by my own observation, ] am
led to ask myself and the club women
at large if the matter is not one in
which we are vitality concerned?"
The proposed resolution is:
Whereas The General Federation
of Women's Clubs, in convention as
sembled, view with disapproval the
present extreme tendency among
| American women to follow designs
in dress, regardless of beauty, COM
fort and modesty; and,
Whereas, The Objectionable de-
signs in women's clothes emanate
largely, if not entirely, from foreign
| houses; and,
"Hhereas, This constant patronage
of foreign designs and foreign mate
rails hinders a normal development
of American art and manufacture; be
| it therefore
Resolved, That this convention, in
full recognition of the rights and
privileges of the individual, places
itself on record as heartily in favor
of the movement for simpler, more
| becoming and more modest designs
| in women's clothes, and urges the CO.
operation of all clubs and club wom-
| en- of the federation in concrete eff
| fort to adopt styles in dress adopted
to American needs, and to encourage
| American designers and manufacture
| ers.,,
