Care Of The Feet.

Women do not rest their feet and
treat them to air baths as frequently
as they should. After the bath slip on
sandals or, better still. rest them on a
pillow for half an hour. A sun bath Is
likewise excellent. Ten minutes rub
before retiring each night after giving
the feet their daily treatment will often
encourage drowsiness and remove the
last painful kink from the tired mus
cles.-Exchange.

Too Much Meat ~ Bad - Too Little.
"Too much meat is as bad for the
body as too little" we are told In the
Woman's Home Companion. During
the digestion Of meats, fish and eggs,
acids are formed. In order to prevent
the accumulation Of too much Of this
acid in the system 1t is necessary to
eat also fresh vegetables and fruits,
which have properties that neutralize
the acids formed by the meat This II
one reason why meat and potatoes are
usually served together. It is safer to
have too little meat than to eat too
little fruit and too few vegetables"

afternoon, February I6. at 200
o'clock, sharp.

coming year, and we should decide

asked repeatedly the past season, by
both merchants and farmers, when
is the poultry show?" This proves
that it has been missed, and we
should get busy at once if we expect
to make the next one a success.
Birds must be hatched early and
given good care.
The State Poultry Experiment Sta
tion is going to give settings of eggs
free to the boys and girls of the state
who will join the Poultry Club, de-
tails of which will be explained at
the meeting.
More people raise poultry in Bates
county than are engaged in any other
line of business. and with the local
dealers paying IS cents per dozen for
eggs and 22 cents per pound for hens.
there is no stock on the farm that will
pay larger dividends for the invest
ment and food consumed. Attend the |
meeting next Saturday and help
boost your own business.
