Not all of these animals were act-
nally bred on southern farms, but
the fact that they were shown from
tsouthren herds as an illustration of
the progressive spirit of the southern
breeders, and those which were bred
and raised on southern farms show
clearly that the south produces as
fine breeding stock as any other sec-

When the Hereford bull, Point
Comfort XIV, won for the South the
grand companionship for the breed
at the International Live Stock Ex-
position of 1913, many northern peo-
ple felt that the occurance was a
“fluke,” which was not likely to be
repeated often.
But the record of the International
Live Stock Exposition held at Chica-

He became constipated and it looked
like he would die. We had three different
doctors, yet with all their medicine, his
bowels failed to act. He would turn up
a ten-cent bottle of castor oil, and drink
it two or three days in succession. He
did this yet without result. We became
desperate, he suffered so. He was swol-
len terribly. He told me his suffering-
could only be described as torture.
I sent and bought Thedford’s Black-
Draught I made him take a big doe,
and when it began to act he fainted, he
was in such misery, but he* got relief and
began to mend at once. He got well,
and we both feel he owes his life to
Thedford’s Black-Draught.’’
Thedford’s Black-Draught will help you
to keep fit, ready for the day’s work.

and takes the derrick away to some
other place which smells oily.
“An oil well with its fancy work on
top clutters up the land scape a good
deal, but nobody seems to mind. In
Bradford, Pa.., some of the finest
residence in that city are defaced by
oil derricks in their back yard, but
the owner of the house does not
tear his hair or mourn because his
cucumber vines are being tramped on
He merely sings a low sweet song
on the first of each month and goes
to the safe deposit vault to cut cup-
ons. We would enjoy being a rich
industrious oil well is one of the
pleasantest companions on earth,
even if it does gum up the surround-
ings a little It is one of the few
things on earth which has a warm
welcome any where it appears.”
Nothing is as non-committal as an
oil well that isn’t finished. A sphinx
is garrulous beside it. But when it
is finished it cither goes on being
quicker than ever or it begins spout-
ing automobiles, trips to Europe and
large nobby mansions in your neigh-
borhood. It takes several thousand
dollars some months and a couple of
noncommital men in mud-plastered
overalls to dig an oil well. They be-
gin by going up about eighty feet.
When they have finished their der-
rick, they hang a drill on it weigh-
ing about a ton. Then the men hitch
