Every human being is entitled to
health, happiness and success. It is
positively wrong to be satisfied with
less. DO not fold your hands and ac-

Tens OF thousands of men and wo-

made worth living to them after they
had almost given up hope. These
are the fortunate ones who have been
restored to health and strength by
the use of Tanlac, by far the worlds
most celebrated tonic medicine.
They all agree that Tanlac brings a
feeling of new life and energy to
every portion of the body and sends

The recent series of 20 poultry
culling demonstrations conducted by
the Farm Bureau in cooperation with
the State College were attended by a
total of 575 people, or an average of
20 per meeting The largest ceeting
was at Monroe, with IS present and
the smallest at Alexandria with 8
present. Complete records from II
of the 20 focks have been received
and have been summarized as follows:
Number of hens in the IL f1ocks
culled was 1882 and the number of
eggs laid by the II focks for a
period of one week proceeding date
of culling was 2470.
Number of culls, picked out as nom
profitable hens, and kept separate
from the above focks was 465, and
the number of eggs laid by the culls
for one week after f1ocks were culled
was 255.
Number of hens left in focks (good
hens) after culling was 867, and the
number of eggs laid by the good
hens for one week after cullS had
been re moved was 2407.
The results show that it required
2.5 good hens to lay one egg per
day, whereas it required the com
bined efforts of Is culls to, lay one
egg per day, or in other words the
good hens laid at the rate of 1919 and
the culls at 80.
The last census credits Grafton
County with $4,000 hens. On the
basis of these demonstrations 35 per
cent or 29,575 of the hens in the
County are Improbable. -.
