The Changing Age

Girls and boys from IA to I0 years of age undergo physical changes which tax their strength to the utmost and the strain is always apparent from pale cheeks, co1or1ess lips. and tired bodies-sometime eruptions of the skin and the utter lack of the ambition and animation with which their younger years were filled.
 Budding into womanhood and man hood, with the duties of school or business, demands concentrated nouri h m ent which is readily into red blood corpuscles, energy and strength. and the very best thing for this changing age Is the medical nutrimeut in Seott's Emul- sion-it possesses the rare h1ood-making properties of cod liver oil in predi- gested form hypophosphites for tlne nervous system, with the healing, sooth- ing qualities of pure g1ycerine.
 Its nourishing force promotes assimi1a- ton, yields direct returns in abundant, red blood, fills hollow c1eeks, tones the nerves, makes all good food do good, and does it in natural easy mauner.
 The sustaining nourishment in Scott's Emulsion is so helpful. to this changing age that it should never be neglected- every druggist has it.

BOX IN HOSPITAL
 STRUCK BY AUTO


 Learning of the injuries received by 10-years-oid Earl LA1npman. 5 VIII son street as a. result of being struck by an automobile Sunday afternoon near his home, Loren Wilcox of Mil ford appeared at police headquarters last night and said that it was ma chine driven bJ him. His story was that the boy ran into the street and in front Of the machine. He says that he stopped but saw the boy; rise and start off apparently uninjured. He did not know that he had been in- 5qred until he read newspaper ac- countrof the accident. Wilcox was al- EsemprnaE. is at Bridgeport hospital in 8 serious cond ftion from a fractured pe1vas and shock.
 How. little people Look where they are going and how much Of this wor1ds goods they may lose by this oversight is the tkerne of a we'll known and wealthy business man of this city today. With a brother in a local hos pita1 recovering from a serious oper- eltior the business man boarded a car in the center of the scity the other day and rode to the hospital. As he alighted the eye glasses which he had thrust into an oVercoat booked dropped to the step of the car unobserved. The car went upon its way, and -trav- ersedl the city twice from end to end. As the passenger left the hospital and was in the act of boarding the car on its return trip his vision was startled by a. shining object upon the car-step. They Nwere the missing glasses, ap- parently untouched, untrodden and 1albrolzen. In the trips across the city they had neither jared .from their landing place or been seen by the sev- eraA hundred messengers who had 1T +V~<11 lev. The lesson which this incident teaches is not coInplimentary to the observance of many of Buddgeport's citizens.

TRIBUNE MAN SAYS HIS HOTEL
Is SANITARY
Leland Hotel,
a. d1A1


Tribune, Sask., Oct. Il, 1914.
Editor Little Falls Herald:
: Sir: My attention has been drawn
to an article a recent issue of the
Little Falls Herald, regarding the de-
tentionl Of Mr.. A. c.. Woke at this
point under the suspicion Of being a
German, spy. You speak OF the hotel
here as being filthy and unsanitary. :"
Kindly permit me to give direct lie
to this statement. As proprietor of
this hotel in question, I would inform
yourself and all concerned that this
hotel is new and only opened a short
time ago, and is a c4ean as any, you
or anyone else can find on the North
American continent, and to endorse
my statement, refer you to any per-
son in Tribune or District. I may
add that hotels in this country are un-
der the supervision Of Government n
spectors, and no License to sell liquor
can be granted unless hotels are in a
perfect condition as regards santa
tion and cleanliness law that could
be enforced to advantage in many
small United States towns that I have
visited.
Your attack on my hotel is entirely
! unwarranted, and how can I be blam-
ed or made the butt Of personal spite
because this man Woke was detaintd
here? I had no more to do, with his
detention than the man in the moon.
do not feel called upon to reply to
other statements made in your article
but would say, for the sake Of fail
play, that you, as journalist should
have aScertained for vonrsa1f fha facts
Of the case, and # you SO desire, they
can be given you by writing to the sec
retary or president Of the Tribune
Board of Trade
In all fairness to me, I ask you to
give space to this letter.
I am, sir,
Yours, ETC.,

store or factory does.
If the usual profit in flock of hens
is 81 each above the cost OF food the
aim should be to increase. egg pro-
duction and the sale of broilers or
other kinds of fancy poultry so that
there will be profit Of 81 for each
hen kept. This is to be accomplished
by selecting pullets from the best lay
ing mothers and by breeding up with
full blOOded males.
II the cows in a dairy herd are pay
ing an average of 500 year, make
an effort to raise it to $500. Perhaps
the quickest way to gain this end is
by discarding all animals that fail to
give five gallons of milk per day for
the greater part of the year. The stock
may be gradually improved by selec,
ton and breeding. It may be possible
also to sell part of the milk or cream
to private customers who will pay
double the wholesale rate.
It is not necessary that the farmer
should replace all Of his grade cows
with high priced, pure bred Holste1ns
Jerseys, Guernseys or Ayrshires
However, for successful and profitable
dairying it is absolutely necessary that
he realize the remarkable difference in
productive capacity of the individual
cows in the same herd, though these
cows are cared for by the same man
and are consuming practically the
same amount of feed.
Recently a herd Of hogs from the
northwest was sold in one of the cen.
tral markets for $3.50 per 100 pounds
A herd of similar size from a so called
corn belt state sold in the same mar
ket on the same day for $7.95. The
northwestern hogs were fed variety
including barley, liberal amount OF
alfalfa, a little ground wheat, some
corn and some sugar beet s1rup. The
other herd of hogs was fattened al
most exclusively on corn.

many as 1000 of you would send

5th of January.
And I meant just what / said.
It was a rather big thing to ex-
pect, and I wasn't quite sure
you'd reach it.
And sure enough you didn't.
But you did some bully good
work and made a fine start to-
ward the coveted goal.
You gave the paper a mighty
boost, and caused the subscrip-
ton receipts to run over $4,000 a
day part of the time.
About one more heat like that
and we will be ready to enlarge.
You can do it right now just
as we'll as any time.
Inside of the last ten days
have spent $4OO for new machin.
cry, and I will be bound to spend
81, 600 more before | can enlarge
the paper.
So get busy, boys, and roll ir
the clubs.
Please take note that | am not
piling up any fortune. The mon.
ey you send goes to pay running
expenses and to buy more ma
chinery for giving you a better
paper.
You perhaps don't have any
