Ordinary Nuxated Iron Will Make Del icate, Nervous, Rundown People 100 Per Cent. Stronger in Two Weeks
 Time in Many Cases

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Most people rool- ishly seem to think they are going to get renewed health and strength from some stimulating medicine, secret nos trum or narcotic drug. said Dr. F.
 Sauer, Boston physician, who has studied widely both in this country and in great European medical institutions, when. as a matter of fact, real and true strength can only come from the food you eat But people often fail to get the strength out of their food because they haven't enough iron in their blood to enable it to change food into living matter. From their weakened, nervous condition they know som ethiag is wrong, but they can't tell what. so they generally commence factoring for stom- ach. liver or kidney trouble or symp- toms of some other aiiment caused by lack of iron in the blood. This thing may go on for years, while the patient suffers untold agony. If you are not strong or well, you owe it to yourself to make the following test: See how long you can work or how far you can walk without becoming tired. Next take two five-grain tablets or ordinary nux- ated iron three times per day after meals for two weeks, Then test your

And this after they had in some eases been doctoring for months with6ut obtaining any benefit But don't take the old forms of reduced simply to save few cents. You must take iron in form that can. be easily absorbed and assimilated like nuxated iron If you want it to do you any good, otherwise it may prove worse than use loss. Many an athlete or prize fighter has won the day simply because he knew the secret of great strength and endurance and filled his blood with iron before he went into the affray, while many another has gone down to inglorious defeat simply for the lack of iron.

Unlike the older inorganic iron products. it Is easily assimlated. does not niure the teeth, make them black, upset the stomach: the contrary 1t is most potent remedy in nearly all forms of indigestion as we'll for nervous rundown conditions. The manufacturers have such great confidence in Nuxated Iron that they offer to forfeit s10080 any chait able institution if they cannot take any wom- under 60 who lacks iron and increase their strength 100 per in four weeks' time provided they have serious organic trouble They also offer to refund money if 1t does not at least double your strength and endurance in ten days time It is dis pensed in this city by all good druggists.

MARKETING THEBIG CORN CROP

essary to the most profitable marketing of the immense corn crop of 1917:
 l. Increased storage facilities on the farm, especially roofing, no matter how cheap or temporary may be the character of the structure.
 ?. Husking as much of the corn as prac- ticable at or soon after the time of har- vest, as means of storing two bushels of corn in the same space where only one bushel of unshucked corn would be accommodated.
 8. The shucking of corn as above indi- .cated, as a means Of reducing the injury from weevils, a result that has been clearly proved in the experiments made by Dr. W. E. Kinds of the Alabama experiment station.
 4 The necessity of combined husking and shelling outfits at shipping stations, public gins, etc, so as to make it pos- file tc ship to market chiefly shelled corn, thus reducing storage space and demand for cars to about one-fourth that required for unshucked ear corn.
 5. The necessity of such cooperation amorg farmers as will enable the great CT part of even the shelled corn to tbe shipped, not only in carload lots but in bulk, to avoid the present high cost of sacking.
 & The very gradual, rather than the sudden, marketing of corn Gas also of velvet beans and most other farm prod ucts), in order to prevent too sudden and extreme a decline in the price of corn, which would invariably result should the bulk of the crop be offered within s,iort period of time.
 [ The feeding of live stock on the farm of as much of the corn crop as practicable and clearly profitable How ever, this year, to even greater extent than usual, car should be taken to sub- stitute for corn as largly as practicable in the feeding of live stock such feeds as velvet beans which cannot be used for human food. This latter policy win release a larger portion of the corn crop for tke national needs in this time of war
 Ire assistance of the two market ex- perts of the extension service, Dr. J. J. watson and c. L. Chambers, both of Au- burr, is at the command of any com munity desiring to effect an organiza- ton for the improvement of marketing conditions. They can serve by corre-- spondence or by visits to localities where a sufficient number of farmers are in interested.
 These subjects will be more fully dis cussed in the series of meetings to be conducted by the extension service in September and October 1917, and intended to cover most of the counties of Ala bama.

a product of nature, and while to him is delegated authority over the lower orders of creation, this authority IS granted him under law and when abused the order is reversed, and man, boasted man, falls under domination of the lower forces He is realizing that in refusing to accept his divine prerogative-Wise guardianship of her life forces, intelh- gent partnership in her material condi- tions-he falls into bondage, becomes na- ture S slave a mere puppet, buffeted and handicapped at every turn.
 As the teacher is out for recreation, he gladly accepts the invitation of the farm CT to visit his farm with him As they ride along, the teacher continuing his disc1u urse on the immutability of na- ture's la WIS, the farmer wonders why he had not before seen that the fencing needed repair, and that the blocks under the ia rm houses need to be replaced by new ones, and many other things which have hitherto escaped his attention, loom into view. As the clover seed had gone into the soil, quickening the inert mass into life and activity, so had the object lesson gone into the soul of this man and uuickened it's latent possibility into life and service.
 A new man rode into the village that day; he felt the red blood coursing through his veins as he resolved his children should not be cheated of their birthright, a land impoverished should not be their heritage. Entering his store he sat down to his desk and wrote the following note. If convenient, the first time you come into the village, please call at my store.' He hurriedly ad- dr essed and posted this to the clover grower who, being always prompt, re- ported the following day. Receiving him cordially, he asked, What is your price per bushel for clover seed?' "One dollar and fifty cents, sir" Opening his purse he handed him the money, saying: This is to pay you for the bushel you sent me this fall, and please take my order now for 10 bushel to be delivered from the spring crop-possibly I shall want more"
 Returning now to our first farmer, we find him storming with indignation and heaping anathema upon the one who dared to sell him unsound seed, but a happy thought comes to him; was not this advertisement found in a standard farm paper, and does not this paper guarantee all of its advertising matter? So he betakes himself to his desk and writes denunciat ton of this advertiser, and asks for protection All the while, undisturbed by his rawlings, the little sleepers are lying happily ensconced in environment in order to awaken to a realization of their possibility.-Educa- tional Exchange.
