WONDERFUL Stuff
LIFT OUT YOUR CORNS
Apply a Few Drops Then Lift Corn'
or Calluses Off With Finger
No Pain.

No humbug! Any corn, whether;
hard, soft or between the toes, will
loosen right up and lift out, without
a particle of pain or soreness.
This drug is called freezone and is
a compound of ether discovered by
a Cincinnati man. :, :,
Ask at any drug store for q small
bottle of freezone, which will cost
but a triae, but is sufficient to ~, rid
ones feet of every corn or callus.
Put a few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callus. In,
stantly the soreness disappears and
shortly the corn or callus will loosen
and can be lifted off with the fingers.
This drug freezone doesn't eat out
the corns or calluses but shrlVels
them without even irritating the
surrounding skin.
Just think! No pain at all; no
soreness or smarting when applying
it or afterwards. If your druggist
don't have freezone have him order
it for you.-Adv.

CAREFUL FEEDING WILL
PREVENT ODORS IN MILK

Clemson College, s. C.-Severai
farmers have made complaint to the
Division of Animal Husbandry and
Dairying of Clemson College that
the milk from their cows have pc
'culiar smell and will not churn. just
what is the cause of the trouble can
not be given, but the following mas
been y,und to be the usual condl-
tions when the complaint is made:
The cow is getting nothing but dry
feed, she has been milking several
months, and there has been sud-
den change in the temperature.
The treatment for all such cases
is to give the cow some green food
or potatoes or turnips. If she Is
constipated give her one pound OF
EPSON salts. Then raise the temper
ature of churning.
Difficult churning is due to trying
to churr whole milk or very thin
cream at too low a temperature
having the churn too full and churn-
ing at too slow speed. Butter
should come in not less than 20
minutes. The ordinary feed of the
cow will not effect the flavor OF the
milk. Feed having a high flavor
as cabbage, onions and bitter weed
will give bad flavor.
