Easy to Make This
Pine Cough Remedy
Thousands of families swear by Its
prompt results. Inexpensive,
and saves about 81.

You know that pine is used in nearly
all prescriptions and remedies for coughs;
The reason is that pine contains several
peculiar elements that have remark
able effect in soothing and healing the
membranes OF the throat and chest.
Pine is famous for this purpose.
Pine cough syrups are combinations of
pine and syrup. The Syrup" part is
usually plain granulated sugar syrup.
To make the best pine cough remedy
that money can buy, put 20 OUNCES OF
Pinex in pint bottle, and Hl up
with homemade sugar syrup. Or you
can use clarified molasses, honey,
or corn syrup, instead OF sugar syrup.
Either way, you make a full pint-more
than you can buy ready-made for three
times the money. 1t is pure, good and
very pleasant--children take ID eagerly.
You can feel this take hold OF a cough
or cold in way that means business.
The cough may be dry, hoarse and tight.
or may be persistently loose from the
formation of phlegm. The cause is the
same-inhamed membranes-and. this
Pinex and Syrup combination will stop
it---usually in "a hours or less. Spleen
did, too, for bronchial asthma, hoarse-
ness, or any ordinary throat ailment.
Pinex is highly concentrated COM
pound Of genuine Norway pine extract,
and is famous the world over for its
prompt effect upon coughs.
Beware of substitutes. Ask your drug
gist for "21h ounces of Pinex" with
directions, and don't accept anything
else. Guaranteed to give absolute sat
isfaction or money promptly refunded

LOOK BEFORE YOU QUIT.
Advice to Dairyman-Herds Are More
Easily Dispersed Than Built Up.


That farmers should observe stop,
look and hsten," signal before deciding
to quit the dairy business is the con-
clusion of II. G. Taylor of the agricul-
tural economies department of the Uni
versity Of Wisconsin, in recent bulle-
tin, price fixing and cost accounting"
Mr.. Taylor, himself dairy farmer,
puts the case thus: "In deciding upon
prices both the farmer and the price
commissioner should keep in mind the
long time as well as the immediate eff
feet 1t takes decades to build up the
dairy industry in community. Equip
ments require time for construction.
Years are required to build up good
herds and decades are required to train
whole community in the fine art Of
producing high class milk. When such a
community IS diverted from dairying to
another line of production the farmers
suffer great loss while making the
change and while adjusting themselves
to new lines of production, after which
they may again prosper.
1.-THE records of one year may indicate
that the profits would have been greater
had the farmer been in another line OF
production, but in going over these fig
ures the farmer should look for condi-
lions which have made this true, If the
conditions are temporary, he should hold
fast to his present line and recall the
years when his profits were much great

"It Is easy to dispense good dairy

much safer plan is to cut down a little
on the number Of COWS by cutting out

cal change in the type Of farming
