II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that SO many products that are ex.
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. Thlf
applies more particularly to a medicine:
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy IL
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need OF it.
A prominent druggist says "Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, q
preparation I have sold for many year,
and never hesitate to recommend, for IN
almost every case it shows excellent 70
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has 80 large q
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony Of Thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
10 many people claim, that It fulflls a.
most every wish in overcoming kidney.

by many immigrants, including some Of

achieve success or suffer failure, as
the case may be.
Every year brings fresh crop of
stories about successful immigrants,
but it brings also stories about immi-

and discouraged, because, lacking gov

guidance, they fell into the hands Of
New York city sharpers who, fleeced
them of their savings.
Tricks Are Many.
The tricks of these sharpers, as cata'
logued by persons who have Investigate

sale of the Statue of Liberty and

Bringing the Cow to School.
A novel method Of urging the use of
milk was tried out In a New Jersey
city with success. Just as school was
letting out a COW was brought up in
truck and MIXED in the street. At
one school coo children gathered
around to see her MIXED. "Such ex-
element, you would have thought q
circus was in town." wrote one Of the
men and five workers to restrain the
excited crowd. One COW, Of course
could not furnish enough milk for such
q crowd, but an additional supply was
brought up in trucks, and eventually
everyone got a drink, Of real milk.
Most children like milk, anyway,
and when milk is supplied to them
in the schools they rarely leave a
single drop in the bottle, especially
if they can drink it through straw.
Parents often raise the objection,
when advised to give their children
more milk, that their boys or girls will
not drink it. When the boys and girls
come from school, however, and tell
their parent that they want milk, they
get 1t.
Undsrnourished Children Gain on Milk
When campaign is closed the work
is followed up with milk-feeding dem
onstrations in schools. In all cases
on record the feeding of milk has re-
suited in substantial gains in weight,
rate of growth, and mental alertness
The results Of the feeding demonstra-
tons following the Massachusetts
campaign, for instance, give some idea
of what Is being accomplished. In
Hampden county As undernourished
children were given a quart Of mills
daily for six weeks. These children
made an average gain Of 1 pound and
1877 ounces, while the normal gain FOL
healthy children carefully fed, for the
same period, would have been only II
| ounces. $500:
Eight of these children made phe'
nomenal gains Of more than five times
| what normally they would be expected
to make. One Of these was a ladrWhc
had never had milk except occasional
" on Sundays. He was delighted with
his gain Of Ga ounces in six weeks
OF course the results Of milk cam
paigns in different cities and rural
districts have varied greatly, but
where complete campaign has beer
nut on, the increase in consumption
of milk has been found to be from
| 10 to 80 per cent. Other dairy prod
ucts, too, such as butter. cottage
cheese and buttermilk, have come II
for substantial gains. In Detroit. fol
instance, a 35 per cent surplus Of mill
which occurred during the spring sea
son Of heavy production, was elimi
mated. The use of whole milk in
creased 10 per cent, butter 10 per cent
cottage cheese per cent. For one

pleted show that the cost varies from
$s5 to $4,000, depending largely upon
the size of the area and the amount
Of advertising used. The cost Of a
campaign, however, is no indication OF
the results. Some Of the least expen-
sive campaigns have been the most
effective. The campaign In Daven-
port, H., which brought unusually
good results, was put on for the small
sum of $65. Funds are contributed
locally for the work.
Organization in carrying out such a
campaign, especially in the larger
cities, is Of the utmost Importance.
Long before the starting of the active
work, the committees in charge Of va
rious activities, such as publicity,
finances, transportation, etc., are chos-
en-, and the entire plan of the cam
paign is mapped out. The co-opera-
ton Of the various local organizations
is secured, such as board of health,
newspapers, milk dealers. schools,
churches, chamber of commerce, etc.
and each one is made to feel that 1t
has an active part in the work OF the
campaign.
When the opening day has arrived,
everything is in readiness, and every
cog in the wheels Of this great ma
chine moves smoothly. Press notices
and advertisements appear in the local
papers. Posters on the food value of
milk and displays in the store windows
greet the eye at every turn. The DEM
onstrators and lecturers hurry from
point to point to meet their numer-
GUS engagements, spreading the gos-
pei of milk and good health in fac
tories, stores, schools, clubs, theaters,
churches, and the meetings Of labor
unions and various other organiza-
lions.
Schools an Important Factor.
Of all these methods Of spreading
the message of milk, none has proved
more effective than work in the
schools. In fact. records show that
there is a sharp line of demarcatl0n
between the results obtained with and
without school cooperation. They
vary from 10 to 30 per cent increase
in consumption in cities where the
schools take a part in the work, down
to only to per cent where they do
| not.
Through the schools the children
are reached directly. They learn from
the women extension workers that
milk will nourish their bodies and help
them grow. Contests in designing
milk posters and in writing milk es-
saws also stimulate interest in the
subject.
Children in city schools. and espe'
cially those Of foreign extraction
know very little about milk. Many
have never seen cow, and when ask
ed where milk comes from, answer
