What Is Nm1ated Iron /?
Physician ExpansSays Public Ought To Know What They
Are Taking--Practica Advice What To Do To
Build Up Your Strength, Power and Endurance and
Increase the Red Blood Corpusces

myself with excellent results There are
thousands of delicate, nervous, rundown
folks, who need just such a preparation as
this but do not know what to take. There
fore ! have urgently suggested the wide
spread publication Of the sworn statement
of the composition of its formula so that
the public may know what they are taking.
This complete formula is now to be found
in newspapers throughout the country 1t
is composed principally of organic iron in
the form of iron peptonate of special spe-
cifc standard and glycerophsophates which is
one Of the most costly tonic ingredients
known. To the credit Of the manufacture
ers il may be said that they use the most
expensive form of iron peptonate, whereas
by employing other makes they could have
put the same quantity of actual iron in the
tablets at less than one-fourth the cost and
by using metallic iron they could have re.
duced the cost to less than one-twelfth, but
by thus cheapening the product they would
undoubtedly have impaired its therapeutic
efficacy. In my opinion a careful examina.
ton Of this formula by any physician or
pharmacist should convince him that Nux.
ated Iron is to be placed among the very
highest class and most strictly ethical prep,
aratons known to medical science. 1t ex-

chief value was found in the great
stimulus it afforded for the picking

In connection with the announce

Campaign Success.
"The boil weevil picking campaign
Just closed has been very success
full and profitable. The boys and
girls engaged in this contest have
destroyed a total of 5,377 weevils.
Our commissioner of agriculture,
made the statement a few days ago
that every weevil destroyed now is
worth a dollar. That can easily be
true if the destruction is carried far
enough to either rid a field totally
or reduce the pests to very few.
It is probable that many a time the
destruction now is worth more than
a dollar each.
"The emergence of the weevil this
season has been a little in advance
of former years, and the cotton be-
ing small, the picking can be done
more successfully than usual. Those
who have already picked or will be-

The fact that Nuxated Iron is today be.
ing used by over three million people an
nually and that SO many physicians are pre-.
soribing it as tonic, strength. and blood
builder in weak, nervous, rundown condi-
tions has led to an investigation of its
merits by designated physicians and others
whose reports should be of great importance
20 the public generally. Among these is the
statement made by DIR. James Francis Sui
Ayan, formerly physician of Bellevue Hos;

the next few days will no doubt
get paying results. On the other
hand, if the infestation is heavy and
only a few weevils are picked, the
destruction of these few would not
be worth while, since there might be
enough weevils left to destroy the
crop. Success depends upon doing
the work thoroughly.
"The principal things to be done
are

Service Station Starts
Out New Cars Right

No one knows better than the mo-
.orist how liable new machine of
any kind is to develop trouble the
very first few days it is put into use.
It is to forestall at the outset any diff
Iiculties that might possibly arise
with the storage battery that the
Prest-O-Lite Company provides
through its service stations what is
known as the "Prest-O-Lite Initial
Test" for purchasers of new cars.
This test, said Allen Chappell, man
ager of Chappell Machinery Co, local
Prest-O-Lite service station, assures
100 per cent service from batteries
installed on cars as original equip
ment by starting them right"
Sometimes a new car will have a
forage battery that has become par
tally discharged while in transit or
while standing idle, or again, it may
be shown by test that the generator
is not adjusted to properly charge the
battery. By the initial test, and diff
ficulties that may arise through these
contingencies are avoided.
"The owner, therefore, upon the
purchase of his new car takes it i'm
mediately to the Prest-O-Lite SER
vice station and has the battery
tested to determine its condition. If
it is shown to be necessary, a fresh
ening charge is given without cost
and a service battery is supplied for
a period of not more than As hours.
The generator charging rate is
checked upS and, if too high, the car
dealer is notified. If there is any
irregularity in the electrical system
this also is called to the attention of
the dealer.
