even for the prospective breeder Of
purebred stock. 1t is not only cheap
and safe way of starting In the breed
ing business, but 1t brings out plainly
in the grades the main breed points
and proves what good blood will do.
Only few generations Of grading up
will be sufficient to place before you
a picture of breed characters not seen
in years in purebred breeding on
small scale. The only danger in the
beginner grading up herd is that the
first results are so satisfactory that to
improve the next generation some
promising grade is apt to be selected
as a sire, which means the stopping
of any further improvement.
BY all means use purebred sire as
good and well bred as your financial
condition viii permit.

Nine Counties Will Bond.

Nine of the ninety-nine counties in
Iowa have already issued bonds for
hard surfacing roads in their county.
1t is proposed to pay for the work in
county warrants and then issue bonds
to pay the warrants as they come
due. There is but little doubt that
the next legislature will enact a law
which will enable the county to issue
bonds for permanent road improve
ments if they see fit. Any act pro-
posing that this be made compulsory

LEXINGTON MAN AIDING
FRIENDS IN FINE WAY.
r. H. CAUGHMAN. PROMINENT
CITIZEN, AIDS IN MAKING TOWN
HAPPY-VALUE OF WORKPROVEN

The spirit of helping others is
abroad in the land, and this part of
the world surely must be growing
better and healthier. A Lexington
man desires to help some unfortu-
nate brother or sister. He has al
ready shown a number of people re-
siding in Lexington how to better
the state of their health by taking
Tanlac, as investigation proved. He
wants to continue this good work.
This is his reason for giving the in
terview published below. This man,
who may be described as humani-
tartan, is R H Caughman, of Lexing-
ton, S C. one of the we'll known cit
izens of that town, who is related to
many prominent people in his and
Richland counties.
Il had stomach trouble and indi-
gestion for a considerable number
of months, and could hardly eat any
thing without suffering keenly soon
afterwards" said Mr. Caughman, as
the interview began. Il had intes-
final troubles, too, My appetite
failed, and my system began to
show the strain it was under. |
took q lot of medicine, but it gave
me no permanent relief" he con-
tinued.
Il had heard so much about Tan
lac that l decided to give it a trial.
The first few doses made a marked
difference in my condition. i'm
proved rapidly, and about the time
the first bottle was taken. was
troubled no longer with indigestion
and its kindred ills. l can eat now
anything | care to. have a good
appetite. Pork chops. cabbage and
other heavy foods do not cause me
pain. 1t was about two months ago
that stopped taking Tanlac. and |
now have symptoms of my former
trouble.
Il can heartily recommend Tanlac.
I have told dozens about it, and
those l have heard from say they
have been helped. Tanlac is the
best medicine have ever taken. 1t
is worth Dragging on"
Tanlac, the master medicine, is
sold exclusively by Kingstree Drug
Co, Kingstree. Price: 81 per bottle,

Pretty Good Law.

In Virginia two weeks ago Judge
Holt imposed a fine of $500 upon
Carl Taylor. a young white man
who plead guilty in the circuit court
to indictments charging him with
furnishing and delivering ardent
spirits to a minor.
From what the court can learn
of the case there is no evidence OF
any criminal intent on the part OF
the accused. The court would I'M
nose a fine Of seventy-five dollars on
the one indictment; and. in view OF
the fact that he had plead guilty on
this indictment no action would be
taken on the other at this time, but
il would be retained on the docket
and if there was no further VIOLA
ton of law it would be dismissed; IN
case of further violation he would
be prosecuted"
Young Taylor was depot and ex-
press agent at Decatur. Va, and 1t
was not contended that he was traf-
ficking in spirituous liquors. The
case is noteworthy from the fact
that he, as agent of an express
company, delivered to a minor an
express package containing liquor.
He delivered the package to the
minor on an order signed by a man
of the Decatur community in whose
name the package had been received
by the express agent from a liquor
house at Harrisonburg.
The above may seem to be pretty
strict law, but it is law, neverthe-
less, and if we mistake not, the pro-
visions of the two-quart-a-month act
provides against the delivery OF
packages containing liquor to any
except to whom the same is address
ed and then only upon his or her
SIGNATURE indicating receipt in per-
son of the package. 1t will be well
for express as ents in this section to
accept no grit:en orders for the de-
livery of liquor whether presented
for a minor or adult. g
