the feeding.
Now, boys, let's all join both
corn club and pig club and give
each the proper attention and keep
accurate records of both and if Ev-
erett wins again, let him know that
he had some work to do. There are
lots of boys in Greene county that
can make a gain better than l pound
per day on a pig, and there are
boys who can make more than so
bushels of corn per acre.
Start now by saving and hauling
manure. Cut the stalks and get the
ground broken early, and deep.
Prepare a good seed. bed. Get good
seed and see that it will terminate
before you plant it.
While you are getting your
ground ready for the corn, | will
be looking up some good pigs and
about the first of March we will
start the pig club to going.
We want to get at least 200 boys
this year and we will be very proud
if every one will join both clubs.

wait till you see me but just drop

join and give name, age, postoffice
address, and your fathers name.

ARKANSAS WOMAN
GAINED 20 POUNDS
Her Health Is Restored by
TanEac After Three Years
Of Suffering-Could
Hardly Walk.

One of the strongest and most
convincing evidences of the wonder
full results being accomplished by
Tanlac throughout the South is the
large number of letters that are be-
ing received daily from scores OF
well known men and women who
have been benefited by its use.
Among the large number that
have been received in the past few
days, none are more interesting
than the following letter from Mr..
Il. c. Alderman Of the Rison Drug
Company, Rison, Ark, which is self
explanatory:
'Rison, Ark. Dec. 9Th, 1916.
Mr.. X. u. Willis, Atlanta, Ga.
Dear Sir: I am inclosing here
with statement that l obtained
from ohe of my good Tanlaq GUS
toners @is morning. The case that
Mr.. Frank Cuthertson Of Clio, Ark,
reports OF his mother, is a very re
markable kne, as she had mot been
able to ID anything to speak of
for several years, whileF now she
can walk mile with lfttle incon-
venience There are ~ number of
remarkable casos in my locality. One
of my best friends hSs used seven
bottles of Tanlsc and shows a gain
of twenty-five polpAds and has a
very extravagant appetite.
Yours truly,
(Siened) l.. C. ACKERMAN."
Mr.. Cuthertson's statement re-
garding his mothers experience
with Tanlac is as follows: MY
mother has taken five bottles of
Tanlac and has actually gained fiji
teen or twenty pounds. l never
saw such change in anybody in
all my life as Tanlac has made in
her. About three years ago she
happened to a hard fall which left
her all rundown and very weak.
She suffered with rheumatism most
all the time and her feet would
swell and hurt her so she wasn't
able to get about, not even to walk
around in the house. l think her
troubles were all caused by the fall
and she just suffcsed nearly all the
time and kept losing weight until
she got to taking Tanlac.
"Why mother commenced to show
almost as soon as she
started on Tanlac. Her appetite
got better and she began to pick up
in weight and get stronger. She
is sixty-five years old now and it
certainly is wonderful what Tanlac
has done for her. She can walk
any reasonable distance by herself
now and she's in better health than
I've seen her in six years. / simply
can't tell you how proud we all are
Of Tanlac and how we appreciate
what il has done for mother"
Tanlac is sold in Paragould by
IIardesty & Lackcy, and in Marina
duke by Marmaduke Pharmacy.

The following letter has been
mailed to several farmers Interested
lin hog cholera control work:
Dear Sir am sure you have
felt that we should have better
way of handling anti-hog cholera
lserum than the way we have been
ddoing. That is, if you wanted to
get serum from me you would come
Ito town and look for me all day,
and possibly / would be Is miles
out of town, not knowing that you
were looking for me. If | did not
happen to come in you would go
home without the serum, not feel
ling any too good about it.
81 have known for some time that
we should have a better way of
serving you, and, therefore, have
planned the following in hope that
it will be more satisfactory to you.
''The ice plant has agreed to re
ceive the serum and virus and keep
it for us without charge. The Ma
tional Bank of Commerce has agreed
to receive and pay out the money
without cost.
"The plan, therefore, as agreed
upon is this:
{ of you want serum any time,
figure out how much you will want
and go to the bank and tell Mr..
Woosey how much you want and
pay him for it. He will give you a
receipt for it and you take the re-
ccipt to the ice plant and Mr.. Rey-
nolds, the manager, will give you
the serum and virus too, if you
want virus.
"If you don't feel like paying for
serum to be used by yourself for
some one else, then figure out for
him how much will be required and
let him give you the money to buy
it, or better still, will be for you
to figure the amount for him and
let him come himself and get the
serum and virus.
81 will do my best to keep on
hand at all times the different sized
bottles of serum so that you can get
as near as possible the correct
but, of course, as you
know, we cannot break packages.
The serum will come in bottles con
tanning the following amounts:
10OCc, 200Cc, 25OCc, 5O0Cc. The
cost Of each with express added
will be as follows

Members of the Pig and Corn Clubs
Dear Roys;
You remember the fine saddle
and bride that was on display at
the county fair last fall. You re
member that a card attached to it
said that it was to be given by
IStcdman Hardware Company to the
boy who made the best combined
record in both corn club and pig
Iclub work.
This was one of the incest and
most valuable prizes offered during
the year. 1t could not be awarded
tim all records were in, so we had
to wait till close to the first of
the year to find out who did win
this prize.
Another thing that the placing
of this prize brought out very fOrci-
! bly, was that boys do not try as they
should to make creditable records
lin both clubs at once. Several boys
made fine records on the pig clug
work but almost complete failure
on the corn club report.
Others made good reports on
corn club work, but did very poor
| ly at reporting the work done in the
pig club.
| We arc always proud of the boy
that makes good crop of corn or
raises a fine pig, but the record of
what ii took to make the corn or
pig is very necessary in awarding
prizes.
The fine prize referred to above
was Won by Everett Rogers, route
IL. Paragould. He did not win it
because he had the best pig. There
were better pigs than his. He did
not win because he made the most
bushels of corn on his acre. Other
boys did better than Everett Rogers
in the corn club. But since the
prize was given for credits in both
clubs, Everett had n total higher
than any other member, so he won
tilN pl lac
Boys, the reason that l am call
ling your attention TO this is because
we cannot be good hog raisers with
out being good corn raisers Good
hog raising means economical hog
raising The boy or the man eth
er who raises hogs and at the same
time raises pasture and corn for
that hog so that it will have bal
anced ration will be the one who
gets the prizes or the profits from
the hog.
Young Master Rogers had pasture
for his hog and with a little corn
to balance the ration he had a
cheap hog. The record showed that
he made gain of pound day
at a cost of less than 4 cents. He
sowed q winter cover crop on his
acre from which he gathered SO
