You Will Never Be Cured By Local Treatment With
 Sprays and Douches

Catarrh is q condition of the blood and cannot be cured by local appli- cations of sprays and douches; this has been proven by the thousands who have vainly resorted to this method of treatment.
 Catarrh should not be neglected or lexperimented with. The wrong treat ment is valuable time lost, during which tho disease is getting a firmer hold upon it's victim. and making 1t moro difficult for even the proper treatment ito accomplish results.

THE SILENT MOMENT

The steady flow of Red Cross supplies to our own people and to our allies is an evidence of the loyalty. devotion and service of our Red Cross workers.
 The assistance given is to a great de- gree material, but spirit permeates each gift which immeasurably transcends the value of the gift itself.
 We desire to preserve this spirit as the inspiration of our service. We hope as the work of our fighting force increases that now more than ever Red Cross work CTS will make apparent our kinship of thought as well as kinship of effort even through the rush and stress of active work
 Therefore, at meeting of the war council, held on Wednesday, October 2, it was resolved:
 That every day at the hour of noon in every worlSroom of the American Red United States, upon a given signal, all work shall cease for a period of one minute.
 During this time in silence we. the members of the Red Cross, will solemnly concentrate our minds upon our beloved soldiers and sailors overseas who are so nobly offering their all. even unto their lives, for us. We will think as one hope as one, for their definite victory and their individual well being; conse- crating ourselves anew to our country and to those who fight, labor and suffer for her. becoming one with them in service.
 May this united prayer gathering power from our love and faith mount toSheaven itself, descending thence in the midst of our dear ones wherever they may be, fall upon them as benedction to be at all times their comfort and their strength

The uniformity in the mares kept on
a particular farm generally is not CIV
en- much consideration. There is salts
faction and convenience In having
mares similar enough in type and ac-
ton SO that one can readily fill the
place of another at any kind of farm
work. Such mares are especially de-
sirable when it is necessary to work
three or four abreast. In case four are
needed to a wagon it is a good adj

and ability as horseman to have them
all uniform, in good condition and
hooked up to nicely. If the mares
resemble each other and are bred to
the same stallion it will often be pos

in which form they nearly always sell
at a premium. The market for horses
bred In this manner will not be over
crowded very soon, as readily will be
attested by any one who has been con-
fronted with the difficult task Of pur-
chasing from farmers mated pairs Of

try and prepotency. Femininity Of ex-
preston and conformation is an indi-

injuries an a result of being kicked

as it was possible with the facilities
at hand, and sent him to an Ash

working at a mine in western
Canada for the past two or three
years, and gave up very remunera-

services to their country. They
applied for commissions in the
aviation service, and reports re-
ceived from them indicate that they
had successfully passed all examin-
atoms so far given, and expect to
be able to pass the rest. The ex

rigid, but those here who know
them have no doubt that they will

SPRAY THE CATTLE.
Cows Must Be Protected From Flies
to Keep Up Milk Production.

The season of the fly pests which
make life miserable for stock during
the summer is on. Horse flies, deer
flies, bot flies, horn flies, stable flies and
many others unite to cause large part
of the annual decrease in the milk flow
during the hot season.
The sustained production OF milk is
well known to depend largely on the
comfort and contentment Of the dairy
COW. Flies not only cause direct loss
of blood and poisoning from their bites,
but also keep stock from feeding prop
erly. The loss of milk from this cause
is one Of the serious problems that
face the dairy farmer.
Protect the milking stock, at least, by
spraying with one of the prepared
sprays on the market or write to the
state agricultural department for In
formation on homemade fly repellents
The prevailing cost Of feeds warrants
special efforts to keep up the milk flow
while cows are on pasture.
