Red Blood Means Old-time Vigor

Red Blood.

Perhaps you've been i'll this winter
or others in the family have, and
you've worn yourself out with extra
burdens. And now your strength IS
slow to return
Week after week you've felt too
tired for anything, and have looked
it, too
When you don't feel well you are
not well. Probably what you need
right now is the good blood tonic,
epto-Mangan. Physicians every
where recommend Pepto-Mangan for
rundown, anemic people. Ask your
doctor about it. Pepto-Mangan sup
plies the things that blood-starved
people lack. 1t puts iron and vigor in
the blood. 1t paints the cheeks in
Natures way, and restores the hearty
appetite.
The blood is naturally sluggish in
the Spring and the whole family
would profit by taking Pepto-Mangan,
which tones up and builds up. 1t is
pleasant-tasting and soon makes you
feel better. Your own druggist has
it ready for your call, and in both
LIQUID and tablet form, just as you
prefer.
But to be certain that you get the
genuine Pepto-Mangan, ask for it by

COST q CENTS TO
GROW COTTON LAST YEAR
DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
ANNOUNCES RESULT OF
INVESTIGATION

WASHINGTON.-The department
of agriculture announced today that
investigation just concluded by the
office of farm management of the
department shows that at price on
a "bulk line" cost of % cents per
pound line rs per cent. of the cotton
grown in 1918 on 842 farms from
which cost figures were obtained
would have produced profit. Sixty
six per cent. of the farms concerned
would have made money, the depart
ment said. At a price based on the
average cost of production which the
department figured at % cents per
pound, only 351 Of the SAP farmers
or Al 7 per cent would have made a
profit, it was stated.
Conduct Experiment.
The "bulk line" it was explained,
marks the point on a scale of costs
about which the price of commodity
must hang if an adequate number of
producers are to be kept in the bust
ness. In the case of the 1918 crop
the price actually obtained conceded
with the bulk line, the farmers re-
ceiving about 29 cents for the prod
uc$.
The farms on which the experiment
was conducted are located in Ala
bama, Georgia, South Carolina and
Texas.
The net cost of production, it was
found, ranged from 8 cents to $1.07
per pound, only farms, totalling 35
acres, producing at the minimum
cost; % showing less than IA cents,
while more than so ranged from so
cents to SLOT.
Study Costs.
''The more generally farmers study
their costs and adjust their produc-
ton on the basis of costs and prices
the more readily will economic forces
operate to maintain production on a
profitable basis" the department
states.

MODERN HOBO SHUNS
THE BLIND BAGGAGE
Uses Employment Agencies to Rid De
Luxe on plush Cushions and
Smoke Finest Cigars.

CLEVELAND, Ohio.-Where the
hoboes of other years rode blind bag
gage, the tramp of 1920 spreads him
self over the plush cushions of the
smoker. He waves his cigar as he
passes the water tank where he used
to dodge the fireman's chunks of coal.
He has his meals furnished him en-
route.
Instead of dropping off at the sheet
iron huts near the creek, he rides on
to the union station. There he is
greeted by his prospective employer,
who hired him through Chicago
agency and who paid for his trip and
the trips of his two score companions.
The the hobo-is a hobo still. He
does not work. When the employer
calls the roll on the job the noble pla-
toon of outstanding men that marched
off the smoker has dwindled to a
squad. The missing "ducked" be-
tween the station and the job.
Employers of common labor, who
have been bringing men from distant
cities, say large numbers are travel
ing around the country via these la
Dor gangs. They make practice OF
''ducking" as soon as they reach the
town to which their fare has beer
paid and hunting up another employ
ment agent who will send them still
further along their way.
Two groups of railroad laborers
brought into Cleveland recently prac
tically melted away as soon as they
struck town.
