Put this in the drinking water.

Most people lose half Of every hatch,
and seem to expect if. Chick cholera
or white diarrhoea is the trouble. The
L. >. government states that over half
the chicks Matched die from this cause.
An Avicol tablet. placed in the drink =
, ing water, will positively save your lit
tie chicks from all such diseases. In
side of As hours the sick ones will be as
lively as crickets. Avicol will keep
them healthy and make them grow and

SEEKING JOBS ON FARMS
Not More Than Twenty-Five Dis
charged Soldiers Have Applied tor
Farm Jobs Since Jan. Work
Found For All Who Wanted tia
Dor Supply Equals Demands,

With spring wyrk on farms getting
under way and with returning soldiers
increasing the available supply of help
there is no Serious shortage of labor
office II the County Agent Buchanan
is advised This conclusion in thai
ONCE is reached hy the fact that pract-
icallv an demands for help that have
been made on the office have been
supplied Comparatively few discharged
soldiers have applied for farrs Work
and correspondingly snail number
have been placed
II was estimated today at County
Agent Ruchanan's office that probably
not more than twenty or twenty i've
discharged soldiers have applied for
farm work since Jan. !. All those
who Indicated that they really wanted
a job. and were suitable, were sent 10
All places.
Keep Up Win Demand.
Il has been the experience OF the
county farm bureau, that in recent
weeks il has been able practically 10
keep zip with the demand for farm
help, especially where single men were
wanted. This is not entirely true of the
situation as regards married men, and
the office now has calls for a few
married men that il has not. been able
to fill.
These conditions lead TO the belief
that Just now there is no pressing de-
nand for farm labor that is not being
supplied Altho the number OF SOL
diers. who have applied for farm work
mas been surprisingly small, the pre-
sumption is that probably good many
of the soldiers. who have returned al
ready. have places TO work without
making application al the county
