HOW GOOD COWS PAY

1t is we'll known that dairy cows, to
be profitable, must be comparatively
large producers, yet few people fully
realize the remarkable rate at which
income advances as production in
creases. Tabulation Of 5,587 cow
testing association records from vari-
GUS parts of the United States, COW
ering period of four years, show
that as the average butterfat produc-
tion increased from 150 to 200 pounds,
the income over cost of feed advanced
from $21 to $34; that is, gain of 80
pounds, or 33 1-2 per cent, in produc-
tion gave an increased income of 62
per cent over feed cost. The next
gain Of SO pounds raised the income
over cost of feed to $50, the next to
$63, the next to STA, the next to $87,
the next to 500, and the last to $118.
AS the butterfat production increas-
ed from $50 pounds to 800 pounds, the
income over cost Of feed advanced
from $21 to $63; in other words, as
production doubled. income over cost
of feed advanced three times. When
the butterfat production increased
from $50 pounds to 45O pounds-that
is, trebled-the income over cost Of
feed advanced from $21 to $1OO, or
almost five times as much.

WARS NEED FOR GOOD COWS

The profitable dairy cow helps to
feed our armed forces and will help
us win the war, but the low-produc-
ing, unprofitable scrub is little better
than a Stacker. The unprofitable cow
may enjoy perfect heath and have a
large appetite; she may even belong
to one of the best cow families, but
If she is not an economical producer
she should be converted into meat.
The present, however, is not the
time to dispose of dairy herds; rather
it is the time to enlarge and improve
them.
The city, the country, and the Army
need more dairy products; the dairy
cow also assists greatly in maintain
ing permanent soil fertility; and the
carefully selected, welI-bred, well-f fed
dairy cow may still be kept at a prof
it. Let the slogan, therefore, be:
Careful selection, intelligent breeding,
and skillful feeding.

than organizations which are not, the
need for a cooperative organization
should be ascertained in the prelimi--
of business available; and the attitude
of tho people in the community toward
cooperative undertakings. The exist
ing agencies which the proposed or
ganization intends to replace or sup
plement should be studied to deter
mine whether they are rendering sat
isfactory service, and information
should be gathered relative to the out
lots for the products to be marketed
and the sources of supplies to be pur-
chased.
The Department Of Agriculture is
glad to advise with communities de-
string to organize for cooperative un-
dertakings.

ROGERS WAS UNABLE TO /
MOVE WITHOUT HELP !.
Gives Tanlac Credit for Working
Great Change for Him
SPEAKS TO THE PUBLIC
DECLARES He Quickly Was Changed
From Almost an Invalid to
Vigorous Man

From condition from which he
suffered so that he had to be helped
around, Ora H. Rogers, of 1909 Kos
suth st., New York, was changed in
to vigorous man who could walk
miles without having pains.
Because of this remarkable benefit.
MIR. Rogers said: II praise Tanlac
above all other medicines, because"
as he publicly stated, "Tanlac worked
the change" Mr.. Rogers statement
IS so interesting and holds such en-
couragement for others that it is piv-
en'word for word.
II suffered from rheumatism and
pains so bad that I often had to be
helped when I walked across the
room," he declared "That was onlv q
few weeks ago, and now can walk
miles without suffering any pains.
Il will say right here" he contin-
ued, "that rheumatism and stomach
trouble are about the worst things a
man can have. l had pains down my
legs and through my body. I had to
slt down Tor hours, but this only gave
me little relief.
Il tried many medicines, but not
one OF them seemed to do me a parti-
Gle of good. kept hearing such good
reports from people Of what Tanlac
was doing for others that I decided to
give it a trial. The first bottle gave
me some relief from those dreadful
pains in my legs and back.
AS l kept on with Tanlac I began
to feel like new man. The pains
passed away. I could go anywhere I
wanted, and, as said, travel miles
by myself. You can Imagine how
felt to finally find medicine with
such merit as this wonderful Tan
lac"

HAVE GOOD EYE FOR COLOR
Women Prove Themselves Exception.
ally Adapted for Service as
Laboratory Assistants.

The entrance of chemically trained
men into the army munition plants
and dye Industries Of the United
States created a labor shortage in the
laboratories of the commercial chem
list. To meet this contingency women
are being impressed into service as
laboratory assistants. The type Of
work for which the women are fitted
appears to be routine determinations
such as silicon, evolution sulphur and
color carbon. At one leading plant all
tests are run in duplicate until suffi-
lcient confidence can be placed In the
ability Of the women to do accurate
work. BY observing the results Of nu-
merous duplicate determinations
which have extended over period Of
several months 1t appears that the
new coworkers are extremely accurate
In the use of the analytical balance.
The same applies to filtering and titra-
tion. The results obtained for color
carbon were fully as good. In titra-
Ition work the women are able to dis
ldnguish the end points with ease. This
is equally true In matching colors.
Their work Is characterized by neat
ness and order.-American Exporter.

Get New Kidneys !

The kidneys are the most overworked
organs of the human body, and when they
fail in their work of filtering out and
throwing off the poisons developed in the
system, things begin to happen.
One of the first warnings is pain or stiff.
ness in the lower part of the back; highly
colored urine; loss of appetite; .indiges.
ton; irritation, or even stone in the bad-
der. These symptoms indicate a condition
that may lead to that dreaded and fatal
malady. Bright's disease. for which there
is said to be no cure.
Do not delay a minute. At the first in.
dlcation of trouble in the kidney, liver,
bladder or urinary organs start taking
Gold Medal Haarlem Oil Capsules. and
save yourself before it is too late. Instant
treatment is necessary in kidney and blad-
der troubles. A delay is often fatal.
You can almost certainly find immediate
relief in Gold Medal Haarlem Oil Capsules.
For more than 200 years this famous. prep
aration has been an unfailing remedy for
all kidney, bladder and urinary troubles.
It is the pure, original HARLEM Oil your
great-grandmother used. About two cap
eules each day. will keep you toned UP and
feeling fine. Get it at any drug store, and
II it does not give you almost immediate
relief. your money will be refunded. Be
sure you get the GOLD MEDAL brand.

habit is as easy to form. Giving chill
dren milk warmed with coffee or tea
is most perniciOus practice. and one
which will ruin the digestion and
nervous system of the average child.
Don't flatter yourself because no evil
results are evident at once that there
is no harm done. Many of our other
wise splendid men and women would
be worth much more to the world and
themselves if they had been properly
fed when young. If our farmers are
so impressed in their teaching of feed
ing cattle with the idea that careful
feeding weighing of food ana con-
stant watching are important for the
young calf, If 1t keeps on growing, 1t
should be doubly important that every
mother should use as much care In
the feeding Of her child.
1t is all too common to see the child
half-hOur or less before mealtime
indulge in sweets and candy. Such a
practice dulls the taste for the food
which is served and the child Is un-
dernourished, and often has no resist
ance when a sudden strain of Illness
comes upon him.
A hot cream soup when possible Is
sufficient luncheon with Il bread and
butter sandwich. A cupful Of hot
milk in cold weather is nourlshing
food given with few crackers. When
the child refuses to drink his milk let
him have a straw to drink 1t through
and serve the milk in pretty glass
or cup. Clear broth or cruel may be
served in this way.
A bit of chicken or lamb, fish and
eggs, ore all good for the school child,
and may be given in the form of sand
wich filling.
A child has natural craving for
sweets, which should be gratified with
pure sugar candy occasionally, figs,
dates and raisins, or in the form OF
| sweet sandwich. Cover bread and
butter with grated maple sugar, brown
sugar or maple sirup. Do not cut
down on the butter, milk and cream
for the child, for they are foods es.
sential to bis growth. A butter sub
stitute may be used If the child drinks
plenty Of milk, but otherwise pile on
the butter.

Don't be afraid of changing your
mind. Everything changes; why then
should your opinions remain the
same? Thinking means development.
Development means change. Without
thinking you drift backward.
