Vegetation Kills Many
Cattle Near Sioux Falls

Sioux Falls, S. D., Aug. 4.-(Spe-
cial )--Reports from the Brennan dis
trict of Pennington county state that
cattle are dying from mysterious
cause.
One OF the heaviest lossers thus
far is Grenanmeyers of Sioux City,
who lost twenty head OF fine cattle,
which were being grazed in the Brcn-
nan territory.
1t was at first thought that
the cattle fad died from anthrax
or blackleg. but this was disproved
by an investigation made by veter-
mary surgeons, who visited the scene.
They expressed the opinion that the
cattle had died from eating fresh
vegetation in swampy place during
the excessively hot weather OF last
week. There are said to be several
varities OF weeds which have tend
ency to become poisonous for cattle
and other live stock, when the weeds
grow too rapidly.
Other cattlemen of the territory
have been warned to watch their
stock closely in order to have as few
losses as possible from this cause.

New York, N. Y.--It Ia conservativsly ss-
timated that over three million people an
nually In this country alone are taking Nux"
ated Iron. Such astonishing results have
been reported from its use both By doctors
and laymen. that q number Of physicians In
various parts Of the country have been asked
to explain why they prescribe II SO extensive
iy and why II apparently produces so much
better results than were obtained from the
old forms OF inorganic iron.
Extracts from some Of the letters received
are given below;
DR.. Ferdinand King, a New York Physician
and Medical Author. says: There can be no
vigorous iron men without iron. Palior
means anaemia. Anaemie means iron de-
ficiency. The skin Of anaemic men and
women Is pale The flesh flabby. The muscles
lack tone, the brain fags and the memory
fails and they often become weak. nervous,
irritable, dependent and melancholy. When
the iron goes from the blood OF women. the
roses go from their cheeks.
SIN the most common foods Of America,
the starches. sugars, table syrups, candies.
polished rice. white bread. soda crackers,
biscuits. maearoni. spaghetti. tapioca. sage.
farina. degerminated eornmeal, no longer Is
iron to be found. Refining processes have re-
moved the iron Of Mother Earth from these
impoverished foods. and silly methods Of
home cookery. by throwing down the waste
pipe the water In which our vegetables are
cooked, are responsible for another grave
iron loss.
Therefore, II you wish to preserve your
youthful vim and vigor to q ripe old age.
you must supply the iron deficiency in your
food by using some form of organic iron
just as you would use salt when your food
has not enough salt"
Or. A. j. Newman, late Police Surgeon Of
the City Of Chicago and former House Sur
| geon, jefferson Park Hospital, Chicago. in
commenting on Nuxated Iron. says: 1T has
been my particular duty during the past SIX
years TO assist In keeping Chieago's five
| thousand blue-eoats In good health and per-
| feet fighting trim so that they would be phys
sically equipped TO Withstand all manner OF

Iron Is absolutely necessary to enabsS

Without IT, no matter how much or what you

without doing you any good. and as a con-
sequence you become weak. pale and siekly-

following test: see how long you can work

Mother Nature for the red eoloring matter in

kind Of iron. You must take iron IN form
that can be easily absorbed and assimilated
to do you any good. otherwise IL may prove
worse than useless. Many an athlete and
