PRICES Of BROOD !.
SOWS take DROP
OF $40 Per HEAD

There has. been a noticeable slump
IN the prices paid for brood sows at
the farm sales which are being held
throughout the county. The price Of
good sows has fallen OF from IS to $40
a head since the early winter sales.
The stock market has been a dis
couraging proposition to the farmer
during the last six months, and the
in store has had its influence on their
plans for the operations of the coming
years. The prospects for the next six
months are high corn and cheap hogs,
and the sales Of breeding animals that
dictate that the farmer is not looking
ahead beyond that time limit.
The time to buy is when the product
is low, and 1t looks as though the
farmers are passing up good oppor-
tunity when they are not stocking up
their farms with brood sows, while
they are selling at comparatively low
figures. The packers are anticipating
unusual demand for their product. II
the European war should be brought to
a close, the resources of the countries
have been depleted to such an extent
that they must Of necessity turn to the
United States for meat. II the war
continues. the people must be fed, and
some provision will be made to get
supplies from this country.
Investigators of the market situa
ton now existing argue that the pres
ent high prices of grain are the result
of speculation. Figures have been Of
fered to show that there is a normal
supply of grain in this country, and II
is pointed out that any change in the
eastern situation might bring the
prices down to normal as rapidly as
they were forced up.

How French People
Cure Stomach Trouble

A household remedy of the French
peasantry, consisting of pure vegeta-
BILE oil, and said to possess wonderful
merit in the treatment of stomach,
liver and intestinal troubles, has been
introduced in this country by George
H. Mayr, who for twenty years has
been one of the leading downtown
druggists of Chicago, and who himself
was cured by it's use. So quick and
effective is it's action that a single
dose is usually enough to bring pro-
nounced relief in the most stubborn
cases, and many people who have tried
it declare they never heard Of any
thing to produce such remarkable re-
suits in so short time. 1t is known
as Mayr's Wonderful Remedy. and can
now be had at all leading drug stores.

standing that your money will be re-
funded without question or bubble il
