this it is readily e that Wyoming
has entered for all time the best Of
sugar producing states. Sugar beet
raisers received hundreds OF thou
sands OF dollars this year for their
beet crops just at time when the
market for all other crops was de-

The soil and climatic conditions

This state has been famed for
many years for the excellent quality
OF cattle that have left its borders.
There is no doubt that Europe needs
a large amount Of meat and meat

their inability to buy. the difficulty
OF obtaining credits and the f1uctuat-

which will tend to limit the amount

Hog Raising and Production.
Hog raising, while being a bus
mess in itself, is also a very profit
able sideline. The hog gives quicker
and better returns on the investment
than any other animal. For every
four or five pounds Of food given
him, he puts on a pound of meat.

Of the requirements necessary to the

Sheep and Wool.
Wyoming is especially we'll adapt

Wyoming produced more wool than

lbs. produced from ~3,424.0O0
sheep. This year, 1921, based on re-
liable returns. estimates show a de-
crease. The number of sheep is
given as 3.250,0OO and $4,000, 900

Women and Medicine

In Europe, years ago, woman
named Hildegarde wrote a notable
book on medicinal plants. In those
days the men were too busy both
ering about dogmas of religion and
medicine, and the study of herbs
was thought beneath their notice.
1t was the women, however, who
mostly conducted the hospitals and
cared for the sick, and thus they
learned much of great value. They
let the men fight out the questions
Of theories.
Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, prepared almost fifty
years ago by a woman, Lydia E.
Pinkham, did then, and does now,
relieve the ailments peculiar to wo-
men. 1t is a vegetable compound
and of great value for this pur-
pose. This is proven day after
day, and in your own neighbor-
hood, by grateful women who have
used it.-Advertisement.
