LIVE STOCK EDUCATION

One of the most important items
in connection with successful stock
farming is the ability of the stock
farmer to recognize quality in his
live stock. One of the features of
the next annual National Western
Denver commencing January goth
will be the Students Judging Con-
test in which judging teams from
agricultural colleges from all over
the west will participate. This will
be the opening feature of the show
and is expected to attract more than
usual interest at the next show be-
cause of the fact that a number of
western colleges that have not here
tofore taken part in these contests
are preparing to enter Judging
teams. Aside from the premiums
won, the contestants in these con-
tests secure some very valuable
knowledge regarding the quality of
all kinds OF live stock. The con-
testants are required to place num-
ber Of animals in each class accord
ing to their ideas as to their individ-
ual merit and are then required to
give their reasons for so placing
them. Stockmen generally are COM
mencing to take considerable inter
est in these judging contests and
they are of great educational value

Danger Signal.

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop 1t or go and help
to put out the fire? 1t is much the
same way with cough. A cough is
danger signal as much as a fire
bell. You should no more try to
suppress 1t than stop fire bell when
1t is ringing, but should cure the dis
ease that causes the coughing This
can nearly always be done by taking
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. MANY
have used 1t with the most beneficial
results. 1t Is especially valuable for
the persistent cough that so often
follows bad cold or an attack of
the grip. Mrs. Thomas Beeching.
Andrews, Ind, writes During the
winter my husband takes cold easily
and coughs and coughs. Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is the best
medicine for breaking up these at
tacks and you cannot get him to
take any other" Obtainable every
where.
