OF wELL-BRED BULL

More emphasis, say the animal hus-
bandry men of the State College Of Agri-
culture, should be placed by the average
daryman on the Importance of the use
of a well-bred bull. He will pay s25 for
n single service from a good stallion and
think nothing Of it. He considers 1t an
investment and feels well repaid when
he has raised q nice colt. Yet the same
man seems to feel that he can afford to
use anything that comes handy when he
wants a sire to head his herd of dairy
cattle The short sightedness of the use
of scrub bull Is too evident when one
stops to consider that over 70 per cent. of
the States agricultural income comes
from her diaries. Dependent on the dairy
COW for a living as he is. the Vermont
farmer must give more serious considera-
ton to the Improvement Of his herd.

Flu This Year is Milder

While we know very little more a. bout the flu now than we did last year the germ itself has never been pos lively identified still most authori- ties agree that the flu germs are brea- tined in. If the system is in good shape and the membrane or lining of the air passages is in healthy con- dition-these germs are thrown off.
 A good plan is to melt a little Vick's VapoRub in a spoon night and morn ing, and inhale the vapors, also ap- ply a little up the nostrils several times day, especially just before be- ing exposed to crowds.
 Treat All Colds Promptly
 Above all, keep free from colds, as colds irritate the lining of the air passages and make them real breeding grounds for germs. Prompt use of Vick's VapoRub aids in preventing colds. For head colds. sore throat or hoarseness, rub Vick's we'll over the throat and chest and cover with a warm flannel cloth. For deep chest colds, severe sore throat or bronchitis, hot wet towels snoulj first be opplied to the throat, chess and back between the shoulder blades to open the pores. The Vicks should be rubbed in over the parts until the skin is red-spread on thickly and covered with two thick nesses of hot flannel cloths. Leave the clothing loose around the neck, so the vapors, releaved by the body heat, may be trse:y inhaled.
 These vap ITS iEtaled wila each t,eath, carry .ke medication directly tc the lungs and air passages. At the same time Vicks is absorbed thru and stimulates the skin, thus aiding to relieve the congestion within.
