A Man is just as Young
and Strong as his
Blood

No man can fight the battles OF
life and hold his own if his blood
is not pure, for rich, red blood
is what strength is based upon.
When you see a strong, vigorous
man, who never knows when he
is licked, you may wager that
such a man has coursing through
his veins rich, red blood. Many
people have thin, pale blood.
They are weak, tire easily, be-
come discouraged quickly, and
sometimes feel like giving up the
struggle. Such folks need DIR.

of additional power, and the fact
that they are an obstruction on the
deck of the thrashing machine. The
aspirator being developed by Mr..
Bates is attached to the head of the
elevator, hence, causes no obstruc-
tion to the deck OF the separator.
1t weighs approximately 100 pounds
and it requires for operation an ad-

Cleaning grain at the time OF
thrashing and thereby saving the
farmer the additional expense for
cleaning his grain after it has been

for cleaning at the elevator, is a
factor in efficient marketing, now

made to give the new device try

the Central Northwest during the
coming thrashing season.

CITY FACES HOUSING PROBLEM

tlIl FhOEo HOtot4*t
General feeling among Ashland
bushes men indicates the expecta-
tion OF a more prosperous tourist
season than any preceding year. A.
Austin Chisholm. manager OF the
Hotel Austin. is especially optimistic.
"The travel this winter has been
without break with the exception
of a ten day snow blockade between
sisson and Grenada. Such travel is
without precedent and is caused by
the better road conditions now pre-
yalling. There has been a team OF
horses stationed at summit Hill all
through the winter under orders OF
the state government for the pur-
pose OF assisting motorists who might
be troubled in making the ascent
during the bad weather periods Of
the year.
