did not follow the usual custom OF
keeping the ingredients secret, 30 that
the rich only could afford to buy the
medicine, but openly printed the name
30 to-day the names Of DIR. Pierce and
his medicines are widely known, and
they stand for better health and better
citizenship.
One OF this great physicians most
successful remedies lie known MS Doctor
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. These are
little, sugar-coated pills, composed OF
Mayapple, leaves Of aloe, root OF jalnp--
things that Nature grows in the ground.
These Pellets are safe because thcy

live stock with less expensive feed and
greater profit to the producers has re-
, ceived considerable attention in nearly
all counties. During 1917 the agents
in the Northern and Western states
assisted in the organization of 160 live
stock breeders associations TO encour-
age the use of better sires, and 1872
lcow-testing associations to eliminate
improbable cows and bring about
more economical feeding. Through
these associations and those organ
ized with the assistance of agents in
previous years, 127, ,S35 cows were un-
der test, resulting in at least S.724
cows being discarded as Improbable.
Primarily through these organizations
1896 farmers were induced to adopt
balanced rntions for their herds, and
the following number of head of regis
tered stock We're secured at suggestion
Of agents: Bulls, 3,2S5; cows, 4,S36;
rams, 1.469, and boars, 2,914. The
agent also brought about the transfer
10 other herds of 1870 valuable regis
tered sires by means of information
given to individual farmers or through
exchange lists published by the farm
bureaus.
In order to increase the production
of live stock in the Northern and
Western states 10 meet the war needs,
farmers were encouraged by personal
conferences. at meetings, and through
circular letters and newspaper articles
to raise more live stock, resulting in
more than 10000 additional head of
cattle, more than 100000 additional
hogs, and 1921 sheep being raised
or placed on farms. In some states
special effort was made to save
calves from being slaughtered for veal,
resulting in 10.499 additional calves
being raised. This work was carried
on most extensively in Wisconsin,
from which 2,459 head of calves from
high-grade or registered stock were
shipped for breeding stock to Missouri,
Wyoming and other Western and
Southern states, due to this campaign.
Aid in Control of Diseases.
The control of livestock diseases
was considered fully as important as
growing more live stock, and the
agents in the Northern and Western
states were instrumental in having
36,392 animals, principally cows, test
ed for tuberculosis; 197,508 animals
were vaccinated for blackleg, and 235,-.
S66 hogs were vaccinated for cholera
by farmers or veterinarians at the sug-
gestion of agents, or by agents. for
the purpose of demonstrating methods.
There are 1.664 counties In the SO
Northern and Western states, and OF
these 1.162 counties, or SO per cent Of
the entire number, had regularly or
ganized club work during the year.
There were 4,378 members of poultry
clubs, who managed 29.541 fowls.
hatched 1O6,35S chicks, and produced
35,37O dozen eggs. The pig clubs had
membership of 1882 boys and girls,
who managed 1o.5s3 animals, produc-
ing 1.797,1 1876 pounds of pork.
