TEACHING THE COLT TO LEAD
Take the Little Fellows When They are Young and Easily Taught
 Don't Get in a Hurry.
,pv NJ CovERpELLl

You often see man kick and cum the colt around every time 1t hap pens to get in his way.
 After a while you will notice this same fellow out with the family help ing him to hem up a two-year-old colt. while he can put halter on him.
 For the first two or three times they get the halter on. they have a regular circus in teaching the animal to lead and be halterwise. It Is mighty hard and dangerous work, too, this breaking in big. strong two-year- old colts.
 Why not take the little fellows in hand when they are small, easily handled and quick to learn? Slip the halter on the colt occasionally and by slow degrees get it accustomed to leading up, when the lead strap Is frightened and you move
 But don't get in a hurry. The colt has been used to going ahead of you, so don't expect 1t to follow too soon.
 A lump of sugar or few oats held in the hand just in front of the little fellow are much better trainers in teaching it to lead than dragging 1t by the lead strap and having someone behind it with a club or fishing pole to "shoo" it along.

Regular Breeders With Large Litters and Who Take Good Care of Pigs
 Are Proper Ones to Keep.

Sows that are regular breeders. farrow large filters and take good care of the little pigs. should be kept until they fail to be good pro ducers. The principal test of wheth- CT a SOW is good milker or not is the thrift Of her pigs, and her con dition while sucking them. If they thrive, and she eats lberally and keeps in good health and digestion, and at the same time becomes lit- tle thin while nursing her pigs, it Is pretty good evidence that she IS a good mother and should be kept as long as her usefulness lasts
 A regular breeder and good mother is worth fully $5e. and is a val uahle animal

SALTS IF BACKACHY OR
 KIDNEYS TROUBLE YOU
Eat Less Meat If Your Kidneys Aren't Acting Right or If Back Hurts or
 Bladder Bothers You.

When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region 1t generally means you have been eat ing too much meat, says a wellknown authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter il from the blood and they be- come sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them like you relieve your bowels, removing all the bodys urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells: your stomach sours, tongue Is coated. and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges, The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels oft en get sore, water scalds and you arc obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 Either consult good, reliable physi- clan at once or get from your pharma- cist about four ounces of lad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com binet with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irri- tates, thus ending bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is life saver for regular meat eaters. It Is inexpensive, cannot injure and makes a delightful, effer. vescent Whitewater drink-Adv.
