Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets are
q Harmless Sub titute

DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets-the
substitute for calomel-are a mild but
sure laxative. and their effect on the
liver is instantaneous. They are the re-
suit of DR.. Edwards determination not
to treat liver and bowel complaints
with calomel. His efforts brought out
these little olive-colored tablets.
: These pleasant little tab.lts do the
good that calomel does, but have no
bad after effects. They don't injure
the teeth like strong liquids or calomeI.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. 1t is best not to
fake calomel, but to let DIR. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.

FENCING STACKS GETS RABBITS.

G. S. Irwin, who is poisoning rab-
bits near the Giffin place, has dem
the necessity of fencing the
hay stacks to get rid Of the rabbits. At
the SNOWFALL place. one night this
week, he put out sack of poisoned
bait and got 270 rabbits. The stack
was fenced. The same night, almost
directly across the road, he put out
another sack of bait on trails lead-
ing to an unfenced stack Here he
got only 36 rabbits.
County Agent Kjosness had the
rabbits piled up and took a picture
Of each pile, which he will use to en-
phasize his plea TO fence the stacks.
Tuesday Mr.. Kjosness and Mr.. Ir-
win placed bait on the Voight place.
Today they went out and found large
numbers of dead rabbits. They tried
to go to Quigley and Wapi Tuesday
but could not negotiate the roads and
mad to turn back.
The rabbit campaign will be press
ed while the snow is on. There are
many rabbits in sections where the
campaign has been lax and such To-
calities will be visited. A little CO.
operation now will go a long way.
Put handful OF salt in the poisoned
water that is poured over the hay. II
has been found that rabbits like hay
thus prepared better than where nc
salt is used.
