WORDS FROM HOME.
Statements That May be Investigated
Testimony of Warren Citizens.

When a Warren citizen comes to
the front, telling his friends and
neighbors of his experience, you can
rely on his sincerity. The statements
of people residing in far away places
do not command your confidence.
Home endorsement is the kind that
backs Doan's Kidney Pills. Such tes-
timony is convincing. Investigation
proves it true. Below is statement
of a Warren resident. No stronger
proof of merit can be had.
w. o. Holcomb, Warren, says: II
had been subject to attacks of pain
in my kidneys that almost foored me.
I was troubled by dull, heavy ache
across the small of my back and in
my hips. I could not stoop over to
pick up anything without having a
sharp crick catch me in the small Of
my back. I was laid up at home for
week unable to work. My kidneys
were irregular in action. Nothing
helped me much until I got Doan's
Kidney Pills. Several boxes remov-
ed the trouble in such fine manner
that / can get around as we'll as ever
now"

ply ask. for a kidney remedy get

PROFIT IN RAISING TURKEYS
Farmers Are Cautioned to Give. Mar
p keting Problems More Attention
Best Birds for Breedinu.

For those who conduct the business
ssasefully turkey raising is likely to
pc very profitable. The demand in
ms country continues to increase. ap-
parently, faster than the supply. Farm
ers who go into the business, however,
are cautioned to give the marketing
problem considerable attention in ad-
vance.
In the turkey publications of the
United States department of agricul-
:ure, which is Farmers Bulletin No.
EOO, the following rules for. selecting
turkeys for breeding are given:
First-Always use as breeders
turkey hens over one year old. Be
sure they are strong, healthy, and
Vigorous, and of good medium size. In
20 instance select the smaller ones.
900 not strive to have them unnatu-
rally large.
Second-The male may be a year.
Ting or older. Do not imagine that
large, overgrown males are best
Strength, health, and vigor, with we'll.
proportioned, medium size, are the
main points of excellence.
Third-Avoid close breeding. New
blood is of vital Importance to turkeys
Warren sheaf. [volume] (Warren, Marshall County, Minn.) 1880-current, 1916-07-19

Better send a thousand miles for
new male than to risk the chances of
inbreeding. Secure one in fall SO
ds to be assured of his health and
vigor prior to the breeding season.
