FOR A new STOMACH

1t said that one of Americas best known
multi-milionaires-a man who ruined his di-
gestion in the pursuit of wealth-stated that
he would pay million dollars for new
stomach.
But, while surgeons have become very
skillful in performing operations that were
once considered impossible, nobody has
stepped forward and offered to sell his stom-
ach to that millionaire. Your stomach is
worth more than million dollars to you. 1t
is LIFE to you.
This miIlionaire's stomach is so ruined by
abuse that it can never be made "as good as
new" by any medicine. But YOUR stomach,
L properly aided NOW can be restored to its
normal condition.
If YOU suffer from indigestion, "heart-
burn" gas in stomach, foul breath, sense of
fullness after eating, sour stomach, and will
act NOW instead of delaying longer, yot
can get PROMPT relief.

Farmers Should Grow
Alfalfa.

A$>AA~~s
There will be a large extension
in the acreage of alfalfa in the
Eastern States in the next few
years. In many places in this

feeling toward alfalfa that the
farmers of the West had toward
the westward extension Of

it can't be grown, and that ends
the matter. in their minds
One of the principal troubles
with eastern soils is they are de-
ficient in humus and nitrogen.
Nitrogen for most crops and on
most land can be obtained by the
growth of Iegumes much cheaper
than it can be purchased. In the
growing of legumes, select the
one that will produce the bs st re-
turns in feed, under most coDdi-
tions. Alfalfa is the best legume
to grow where it will do we'll. 1t
will produce more feed that has
a higher feeding value, on land
that is adapted to its growth,
than any other legume.
There is no reason why alfalfa
should not be the principal lie.
guminous crop in the East, on
most soils, just as it is in the
West. And the returns of the
farmers in the eastern section of
the United States would be much
greater if a larger acreage OF
this crop was grown.
