Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest for
it's remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one Of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re.
jected is because kidney trouble is SO
common to the American people. and the
large majority of those whose applica
tons are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 1t is on sale
ct all drug stores in bottles Of two sizes
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test thi,
great preparation send ten cents to DR.
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for q
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

An abundance of free range with
plenty of shade is necessary if chicks
are to grow rapidly and develop into
vigorous fowls, says the United States
department of agriculture. Growing
chicks that have free range obtain
quantities of green feed, bugs, worms
and other things, therefore requiring
less grain, and they are also less liable
to sickness or disease. Give your
chicks free range whenever possible,

Prevention Is Best Procedure Against
Hawks, Crows, Weasels, Cats

Hawks, crows, rats, foxes, skunks,
weasels, cats, and dogs are the most
dreaded enemies Of the growing chick

RANGE FOR GROWING CHICKS
Quantities of Green Feed, Bugs,
Worms and Other Things Obtained
in Place of Grain.

Nothing is better for growing chicks
than a liberal supply of sour milk. If
it can be obtained, It always should be
kept before them in an open dish or
pan where they can eat and drink it
freely. Where sour milk is fed, the
amount of beef scrap in the dry mash
may be reduced one-half.
Plenty of fresh, clean water is alb
sOlutely necessary for all growing
chicks. In hot weather, it should be
given twice daily and put into fOun-
