hogs with strong, dense bones. Since
cereal grains are low in mineral ele.

When confined In yards hogs are
often fed largely or entirely on grain
rations. So that their bones are soft
and easily broken. Rations of corn
supplemented by tankage and by skim
milk produce the most bone.
Because of the high protein and
lime content, alfalfa and clover hay
may be fed to advantage to mature

leguminous crops may be used. For
feeding in connection with grains to
breeding hogs in confinement, lime,
corncob charcoal, bone flour and wood
ashes are also recommended.

BEGIN HOT WAITER DlRIlNlKING IF YOU DON'T FEEL RIGHT Says glass of hot water with phosphate before breakfast
 washes out poisons.

Ii you wake up with bad taste, bad breath and tongue is coated; if your head is dull or aching; if what you eat sours and forms gas and acid in stomach, or you are bilious, consti- pated, nervous, sallow and can't get feeling just right, begin inside bath ing. Drink before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it. This will flush the poisons and toxins from stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels and cleanse, sweeten and purify the entire alimentary tract. Do your inside bath ing immediately upon arising in the morning to wash out of tho system all the previous days poisonous waste, gases and sour bile before putting more food into the stomach.
 When your kidneys ache and feel like you felt before your blood, nerves and muscles became loaded with body impurities, get from your pharmacist a quarter pound of limestone phos- phate which is inexpensive and almost tasteless, except for a sourish twinge which is not unpleasant.
 Just as soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening and freshening, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels. Men and wo- men who are usually constipated, bil- ious, headachy or have any stomach disorder should begin this inside bath ing before breakfast. They are assur- ed they will become real cranks on the subject shortly-AGv.
