WINTER CARE OF THE SHEEP
cured From HaIf-Starved Animal -Give Succulent Food.

If the sheep are neglected and al lowed to run down in flesh when the winter sets in the fleece will be in. jured in both weight and quality.
 A fleece of good quality cannot be grown on a poor half-starved sheep If the ewes are allowed to get poor during the winter the chances are that the lambs will be weak and will per ish for lack of nourishment and from cold. while the lambs from a we'll cared for eve will be much abler to stand the cold if they should happen to be dropped when the weather is cold.
 The dams will have more milk for their young, too, if they are well cared for
 Sheep need some succulent food dur ing the winter. They should have some rough feed such as corn stover or clover hay, and. above all they should have ration rich in both pro- tein and mineral matter.

Hopes Women Will
 Adopt This Habit
 As We'll As Men
Class of hot water each morn. ing helps us look and feel
 clean, sweet, fresh.

Happy, bright, alert-vigorous and vivacious-a good clear skin; a nat. ural, rosy complexion and freedom from illness are assured only by clean, healthy blood. If only every woman and likewise every man could realize the wonders of drinking phosphated hot water each morning, what grat. flying change would take place.
 Instead of the thousands of sickly. anaemic-looking men, women and girls with pasty or muddy complex. ions; instead of the multitudes of nerve wrecks," "rundowns," brain fags' and pessimists we should see a virile, optimistic throng of rosy checked people everywhere.
 An inside bath is had by drinking, each morning before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels the previous days indigestible waste, sour lamentations and poisons, thus cleansing. sweeten- ing and freshening the entire alimen. tary canal before putting more food into the stomach.
 Those subject to sick headache, bil. iousness, nasty breath. rheumatism, colds; and particularly those who have a pallid, sallow complexion and who are constipated very often, are urged to obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from any drug gist or at the store which will cost but trifle but is sufficient to demon strate the quick and remarkable change in both health and appearance awaiting those who practice internal sanitation. We must remember that inside cleanliness is more important than outside. because the skin does not absorb impurities to contaminate the blood, while the pores in the thir- ty feet of bowels do.-Adv

This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush clogged kid neys and stimulate them to normal activity; also to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer initiates. thus ending bladder disorders.

SUCCESS IN PRODUCING PORK
Pasture Grasses and Forage Crops Make Healthy, Vigorous Hogs
 Some Grain Is Necessary.

Many now realize the fact that the growing of pasture grasses and forage crops that make healthy, vigorous hogs of good quality is the basic factor in successful pork production. They are raising hogs at big profit.
 Of course those who are successful realize the fact that certain amount of grain feed is needed to grow hogs with a greater profit, but they use this grain only as a supplement to the feeds harvested by the hogs in the pastures and fields.
