A Feeling of Security

You naturally feel secure when you know that the medicine you are about to take Is absolutely pure and contains no harmful or habit producing drugs.
 Such a medicine is Dr. Kilmers Swamp Root, kidney, liver and bladder remedy. The same standard of purity, strength and excellence Is maintained in every bottle of Swamp-Root.
 It is scientifically compounded from vegetable herbs.
 It is not a stimulant and is taken in teaspoonful doses.
 It is not recommended for everything.
 It Is natures great helper in relieving and overcoming kidney, liver and blad- der troubles.
 A sworn statement of purity ;s with every bottle of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root.
 If you need a medicine, you should have the best. On sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes medium and large.
 However, if you wish first to try this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N Y, for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.-Adv.

quite out of the question and this ac counts for the simplicity which is so effective in suits and costumes that are made of colorful or lustrous fabrics.
 In the suit pictured two tones of color, gray and green, both in rather dark shades, are woven in plain crepe and checkerboard pattern. The plain weave makes the skirt and is used on the coat in collar and girdle. The collar merges into a facing below the waiSt-line There is nothing to de- scribe in the suit that may not be gathered from the picture. Its very long. close-fitting sleeves wit. fascinat- ing frills of lace falling over the hands and the plaited jabot of wide, net-top lace, that plays the part of a vest at the front, are details that can- not be spared from this design.
 Hat, shoes, stockings and parasol have all been carefully selected for this suit. The hat in light gray and dark green has a spice of black in nar- row bands of patent leather, to give it sparkle. Shoes and stockings are gray and green predominates in the paraso where bands of black repeat the black note in the hat

HOW ATTRACTIVELY outfitted \ Il for summer time promenade is the beautiful girl pictured here! She has arrived at stunning appearance by employing simple means, and in this case the character of the fabric used is almost altogether responsible for the success of the costume. This Is one of many spring suits made of heavy fiber silk. which are vieing with those of wool materials in the spring displays. These silks have brilliant luster and are woven in many novel patterns employing one or two colors. They have been used heretofore for sports wear, more thaa for any other, but progress in weaving them has opened a new field of usefulness and they are delighting designers by SUD- plying a new and wonderful medium for street and formal suits
 There is a great variety of weayes in this modern silk, the crepe and ribbed effects predominating, with many new drop-stitch designs. These new weaves inspire designers to fur ther efforts in the invention of styles suited to them. Such brilliant effects fin the material make much decoration

FEED VALUE OF BUTTERMILK
Slightly Lower in Protein and Car bohydrates Than Skim Milk
 Excellent for Pigs.

For all practical purpose butter. milk has about the same feeding value for hogs as skim milk, although it is slightly lower in protein, carbohydrates nnd fat than skim milk. Being high in digestible protein and rich in mineral matter, especially calcium and phos- phorus, buttermilk is admirably suited for growing pigs, brood sows and breeding boars. It is an excellent sup plement to corn because it furnishes those feed constituents that corn is deficient in.

DECLINE IN PRICES OF MEAT
Bureau of Crop Estimates Notes Drop in Amount Paid for Pork, Beef,
 and Mutton.

The advance in the monthly average price of hogs per 100 pounds received by producers, which began with Feb ruary, 1916, comparison being made with the same month in the preceding year, continued without break to August, 1919, and the advance was from $7.07 to $19.30. Since August, 1919, the fall from month to month was continuous to $12.66 in Decem- Der, followed by a rise to Sl3.36 in January, 1920, or $2.33 below the Jan- uary price in 1919, according to the reports of the bureau of crop estl- mates, United States department of agriculture.
 The average price of sheep per loO pounds received by producers through out the whole year had an upward movement from 1913 to 1918, from $454 to $1094, the principal increase being in 1917. The average for 1913 S958, is a drop of $1.36 from that for 1918, or 12 per cent.
 From 1915 to 1918, the average price of beef cattle per pound to producers invariably advanced from year to year in each month and the advance con- tinued from 1918 to 1919 until May after which month the average price in 1919 fell below that of 1916 in each month, and the average price for Jan- uary. 1920 was $S99, or 66 below that for January, 1919. In the upward movement, the highest monthly aver age price reached was $10.S4 in May 1919.
 Veal calves gained in average price in every month of every year since 1915, the comparison being with the same month of the preceding year

TT NBLEACHED domestic cotton, ir

TT NBLEACHED domestic cotton, in ~ the heavy, strong qualities, is among the reliable things that the high cost of living has brought into new uses. A few women have made themselves bungalow aprons and house dresses of it for summer wear and it proves surprisingly attractive with a little simple needlework as it's fin ish. Where it proves most useful is iD attire for little folks in dresses and slips or aprons. The natural col or makes a fine background for little figures worked in cross-stitch on pock- cts or belts-bunnies, chickens. birds. kittens and other small friends of tine youngsters.
 In the matter of price, for several things, the steady upward progress appears to have reached the point where women balk at paying it. They are demanding less expensive millinery for one thing and are determined to do without silk garments unless the prices become stable and less eX- horbitant for silk fabrics. In a few cities. leagues have been formed whose members pledge themselves to wear their clothes until they are worn out. Suits and dresses of wool are remodeled and worn with good grace since it is hard to get reliable goods even at the increased prices. Shoes are maintained by journeys to the repair shop-where new half soles and rehabiitated heels, give .hem a prolonged term. of service. These economies are enforced in most cases, but it is a good thing that American women are going through this ex- perience for they have long been ac-

cused of being the most extravagant and wasteful of civilized people.
 This season there is a good chance to econOmize in millinery because hats include many shapes that were worn last year, or even in earlier sea- sons. Sailor shapes, wide brimmed leghorns, some of the "cloche" or dropping brimmed hats as we'll as toques and turbans of former sea- sons need only little alteration to make them entirely up-to-date. The light colors that have become soiled. may be vanished with darker color, or black, and it is the simplest thing in the world to do this work at home. There are several stains or varnishes on the market, usually for sale in drugstores, that are easy to apply. The vogue for dotted Swiss organdie in facings and trimmings suggests one way of bringing the hats of yes ter year upto-date. These materials are used over straw shapes and to make entire hats. Collars and cuffs to match the hat, made of the same Swiss or organdie,. add the smartest kind of touch to a street outfit. Of course, every woman has a right to one new hat in the spring, but she is entitled to others if she is clever enough to make them herself and one hat will hardly answer all purposes. Even if it would there is pleasure in little variety in ones headwear.

The North Dakota Experiment Sta tion several years ago found that millet hay fed liberally to horses for long period of time was injurious to the extent that it caused increased action of the kidneys. a swelling of the joints, and a certain amount of lameness. Millet hay seems to be all right for cat tie and can perhaps be used safely as a small part of the roughage for horses.

ACCURATE RECORDS OF EWES
As Lambing Time Approaches Animals Should Be Separated and Given
 Extra Attention.

Some fairly accurate record should be kept when the ewes are bred in or es the ewes may be separated from the main flock and given extra feed and care. If ticks, lice or scab appear in the flock, the sheep should be dipped even though the weather is q little se- we're. This is extra work, but the flock will be more healthy and thrifty. A warm place should be provided foJ the sheep until they dry off.
