PURE-BRED SIRES ARE BEST
Selection of Herd Bull Is of Greatest
Importance—Avoid Contagious
Abortion and Tuberculosis.
Farmers everywhere are beginning
to appreciate the need for pure-bred
sires. In dairying the selection of
the herd bull is of the greatest impor-
tance because he is at least half the
herd from the breeding point of view.^
His influence on the characteristics of
every calf born in the herd is as great
as that of the dam of the calf. If he
is a pure-bred animal used on grade
cows, his influence will be more than
half because his transmitting powers
in breed characteristics will be
stronger.
No bull whose dam and paternal
grand-dam were not capable of pro-
ducing 300 pounds of butterfat in 365
days should be used for breeding pur-
poses if good results are expected. It
would he much better if this premium
were set at 350. The prudent dairy-
man will select a calf from a cow
which' produced 400 pounds or more
of butterfat
If the use of bulls from dams and
paternal grand-dams producing less
than 300 pounds of fat were prohibit-
ed by state law it would be a long
step in advance. Much damage has
been done by unscrupulous and ignor-
ant ljreeder^ who have sold, for
breeding purposes and at low prices,
pure-bred male calves ..from cows
DODSON’S LIVER TONE
New Discovery! Takes Place of Dangerous Calomel—It Puts Your
Liver To Work Without Making You Sick—Eat Anything—
It Can Not Salivate—Don’t Lose a Day’s Work!
I discovered a vegetable compound that does the
Work of dangerous, sickening calomel and I want every
reader of this paper to try a bottle and if it doesn t
straighten you up better and quicker than salivating
calomel just go back to the store and get your money.
I guarantee that one spoonful of Dodson’s Liver Tone
will put your sluggish liver to work and clean your
thirty feet of bowels of the sour bile and constipation
poison which is clogging your system and making you
feel miserable.
I guarantee that one spoonful of this harmless liquid
liver medicine will relieve the headache, biliousness,
coated tongue, ague, malaria, sour stomach or any
other distress caused by a torpid liver as quickly as a
dose of vile, nauseating calomel, besides it will not
make you sick or keep you from a day’s work. I want
to see a bottle of this wonderful liver medicine in every
home in the South.
Calomel is poison—it’s mercury—it attacks the
bones often causing rheumatism. Calomel is dangerous.
It sickens—while my Dodson’s Liver Tone is safe,
pleasant and harmless. Eat anything afterwards, be-
cause it can not salivate. Give it to the children be-
cause it doesn’t upset the stomach or shock the liver.
Take a spoonful tonight and wake up feeling fine and
ready for a full day’s work.
Get a bottle! Try it! If it doesn’t do exactly what
I say, tell your dealer to hand your money back.
Every druggist and store keeper in the South knows
me and knows of my wonderful discovery of a medicine
that takes the place of dangerous calomel.

‘‘Some of my bulbs have rotted in

‘‘No, I can’t say I have,” replied

‘‘And the bugs in my rosebushes
are a pest. Do you have any trouble
of that kind?”
“Not a bug on a single bush.”
"That’s strange. Now, with my
lawn, I find that only about half the
grass looks healthy. The rest won’t
grow no matter how much I water it.
But I suppose you know1 from expe-
rience what that is?”
"Never had any grass trouble,
either.”
“Great Scott, man!” exclaimed the
commuter. "How do you manage to
escape all these annoyances?’’
“Very easily, sir. I live In a ho-

GET POWER
The Supply Comes From Food.
If We get power from food, why not
Strive to get all the power we can. That
la only possible by selecting food that
exactly fits the requirements of the
body.
“Not knowing how to select the right
food to fit my needs, I suffered griev-
ously for a long time from stomach
trouble,” writes a lady from k little
Western town.
~i ‘It seemed as if I wonld never be
able to find out the sort of food that
was bust for me. Hardly anything that
1 could eat would stay on my stomach.
Every attempt gave me heart-born and
filled my stomach with gas. I got thin-
ner and thtanbr until I literally be-
came a living skeleton and in time was
compelled to keep to my bed.
“A few months ago I was persuaded
to try Grape-Nuts food, and It had such
good effect from the very beginning
that I kept up its use. I was surprised
at the ease with which I digested 1L It

SHOE TOKEN OF SUBJECTION
Ancient Significance of Custom Which
Is Now Looked Upon as Merely
a Joke.
■ %
As specially applied to weddings,
there iB a suspicion that the throwing
of old shoes—or new slippers, for all
that—had at first a significance which
surely would be most objectionable to
twentieth-century brides. It seems to
have been a token of the complete
subjection of the bride to her lord
and master. In the East a shoe or a
slipper was publicly borne at the head
of the bridal procession in indication
of the bride's subjection, and at some
Jewish weddings the bridegroom used
to strike the bride a blow with his
shoe as a sign that she was thereafter
to be submissive to his will. Among
the Nestorians It was the custom for
the bridegroom to kick the bride, and
for her to remove from his foot the
shoe with which he had kicked her.
To this day there is a common cus-
tom in Russia for the bridegroom on
his wedding night to require the bride
to pull off his boots. In one of them
is a whip, and In the other a gift. If
she pulls off first the one containing
the whip, she gets a stroke from the
lash, and is to expect floggings there-
after, but if the gift is flrBt disclosed
her married life will be happy. H is
related of Martin Luther that once,
after performing the wedding cere*-
mony for a conple, he took off the
bridegroom’s shoe and placed it upon
the bride’s pillow, as a sign that she
should be in all things and at all times
subservient to her husband.
Russia Becomes Temperate.
The prohibition of selling brandy
in the government monopoly shops
was introduced throughout the Rus-
sian empire from the beginning of
the war, on the day of mobilization,
and has now been in force for more
than eight months. One of the Rus-
sian papers has made inquiries con-
cerning the results of this measure,
and has published some of the statis-
tical data that waB collected. The
following list shows the consump-
tion of vodka in the city of Moscow
in 1914 compared with the preceding
year: July, 612,686 gallons in 1913
and 359,124 gallons in 1914; August,
667,926 gallons In 1913 and 23,373 gal
Ions in 1914; October, 707,688 gallons
in 1913 and 2,913 gallons in 1914. Dur-
ing the first three months vodka could
be obtained at the first-class restau-
rants for consumption in the same,
the selling of vodka in bottles being
prohibited under a heavy fine.
