Positive-Convincing Proof

Many so-called remedies for amaze
mia are o.ly so in name. Their max
ers are afraid to prove their claims by
telling what their medicines contain.
The only way to be honest with the
people is to let them know what they
are paying for. Here is the Vinol
formula. When the doctor knows
what a medicine contains, it ceases
tc be a patent" medicine.
p Cod Liver and Beef Peptones, Iron and
M Manganese Peptonates, Iron and Am
monium Citrate. Lime and Soda Glycero-
phosphates, Cascarin.
Any doctor will tell you that the in
gradients of Vinol, as named above.
win enrich the blood and Danish amaze
mia and create strength. When the
blood is pure and rich and red, the
body is strong and robust
You can prove this at our expense

MILEAGE FROM WORN TIRES
Competent Repairman Should Be Con. suited Before Tire Is Disearded-
 May Be Repaired.

Many motorists using tires that have given good mileage, but have developed weak places fin the fabric, have won. dered whether in the interests of econ- omy they should scrap the old tire or spend good money in an attempt to coax more miles from 1t. Innumerable tires are constantly being discarded be- fore their real usefulness is over.
 Before discarding an old tire" says a expert, 'ft Is well to show 1t to a competent repairman. He will gen. erally be able to determine whether the expenditure involved will result in the additional mileage expected.
 Tire repairmen are not taking the long chances they once did. The de pendable vulcanizer today recommends only such work as he believes will ef- feet saving to the motorist. If re- pair is inadvisable he will not recom- mend it, for every job of that charac- ter means a dissatisfied customer.
 "There are a number of ways fin which tires apparently worn out can be made to render much greater mile age. If the tread of tire is worn down, but the tire otherwise in fair condition. several thousand miles of service may he secured hy having 1t retreaded. Oftentimes an inside tire protector cemented on the inside of the casing will restore or partially re store its original strength"

RECENTLY PATENTED olLLess TIRE PUMP.

The quality of the compressed air in a tire is of more importance than most people realize. The well-known effect of oil or oily vapors on rubber, has been a difficulty hard to overcome In the commonly constructed piston pumps. as pistons and cylinders must be fabricated. Too little oil means the freezing" of piston and cylinder by unequal heat expansion and too much oil means pumping oil along with the air into the tires. Even when the amount is exactly right the heat of compression tends to vaporize the oil and impregnate the air that Is pumped into the tires.

DRAGGING HIGHWAY BY AUTO
Cars Can Keep Roads in Good Condition Year Round.

In a recent number of ''The Farm ing Business" is a suggestion that might well be adopted by farmers who own automobiles. In some sections farmers are hitching a road drag to the auto when taking a trip to town or anywhere else on the roads. The car pulls the drag along the mile or two of road that the farmer cares to keep up. Then, on the way home, he picks up the drag where he left it and drags the other side of the road go- ing back, making such a round each time the car is taken out
 With the rapid increase Of automo- biles in the rural districts, this plan ought to serve to keep the roads in better condition than ever before. There is no doubt that a persistent use of the drag will accomplish more in the direction of good roads than almost anything else that can he done at present

AUTO IS NECESSITY
Becoming Increasingly important

Machine Eliminates Distance and Helps People of Different Parts of Land Better to Understand
 Each Other.

The automobile is becoming an in- creasingly important factor in farm life. It Is rapidly reducing the iscia- lion which once made the agriculturist more or less of an involuntary hermit. The motor car Is beginning not only to mellow the farmer. but to expand the city man. The day when every farmer looked upon an automobile us an ob- ject for abuse has largely gone. Today the farmer gives the automobile half the road with good grace, for his own possession of similar vehicle has re versed his prejudices-
