once is a purified calomel, known as

time, swallow of water-that's all.
No taste, no gripping, no nausea, no
danger. Next morning you awake
feeling fine, with a clean liver, a puri-
fed system and a hearty appetite for
breakfast. Eat what you please. There
is no restriction Of habit or diet. Cal
otabs are sold only in original sealed
packages, price thirty-five cents. Your
Druggist recommends Calotabs, and
will refund your money if you are not
delighted with them.

To encourage the production of bet
ter poultry, specialists of the U. S.
department of agriculture are now
conducting campaign urging all poul
try growers to Gull their flocks at this
season and KEEP only the best laying
hens for next year. In this work they
are urging poultry departments of ag-
ricultural fairs, county agents, and
poultry breeders to take a greater in
terest in poultry shows and poultry
displays at fairs. In the presnt emer-
gency, to use to the fullest extent the
power of popular exhibitions of poul-
try to create new interest 1t is more
important to have small shows wher-
ever an exhibit can be brought togeth-
or than to have what poultrymen are
accustomed to call quality shows.

The new factory will be equipped
with a capacity for turning out L.

this maximum production will not
be attempted for some time yet.
The officers and directors are all
progressive young farmers. All
have lived here a number of years
and are well and favOrably known.
The president, c. E. Owens, who
has been the prime mover in the
organization of the enterprise, now
lives at Plains, Colo He is an auc-
tiOneer and through his profession
al work in this line, has become
well known throughout the east
end of the county and western
Kansas. He is highly regarded for
his integrity and progressiveness.
Mr. Lindsey, one of the board of
directors, is an experienced and
skilled broom manufacturer, and
by reason of the fact will add espe-
cial strength to the organization.
In view of the great amount of
broom corn raised in this section
of the state there is every reason to
predict that the Farmers Cooper

most important industrial enter
prise in Holly and at the same
time afford the broom corn grow
