Don't Worry
About the high price of grain and feed
for your fleck of hens as Eggs and
Poultry are expected to be correspond-
ingly high this coming season.
INCUBATORS
Now is the time to order your Prairie
State Incubators. Why depend on the
uncertain old hen for hatching when
an Incubator will do the work better
and cheaper? Get your chickens
hatched early and get the big price for
broilers. The early pullets will be
your next winter's layers. Get an In-
cubator and hatch your chicks when
you please.

WHY WOMEN
WHITE LETTERS
To Lydia E. Pinklum
eine Co.
Women who are well often tisk "Aim
the letters which the Lydia 11, Pinichain
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?" "Are they truthful?"
"Why do women write such letters? "
In answer we say that never huve we
published a fictitious letter or name.
Never, knowingly, have we published
an untruthful letter, or one without the
full and written consent of the woman
Who wrote it.
The reason that thousands of women
from all parts of the country write such
grateful letters to the Lydia E, Pink -
ham Medicine Co. is that Lydia E. Pink -
ham 's Vegetable Compound has brought
health and happiness into their lives,
onee burdened with pain and suffering.
It has relieved women from some of
the worst forms of female ills, from dis-
placements, inflammation, ulceration,
irregularities, nervousness, weakness,
stomach troubles and from the blues.
It is impossible for any woman who
is well and who
has never suffered
to realize how these
poor, suffering wo-
men feel when re-
stored to health;
their keen desire to
help other women
who are suffering as
they did.

KANSAS FARMER WAS
CONVERTED BY THE FACTS
The Kansas City Star says:
.A western farmer drove 11110 town
the other day to get an old-fashioned
article -a buggy -and the salesman
at the implement etore showed him
one at $90.
"Talk about the high cost of living,"
the farrier grumbled. "I COO remember
that my father bought a buggy like that
for $60 twenty years ago."
The salesman remembered the sale
too, and he responded quickly:
"Yoer father turned in 300 bushels
of corn to pay for it. Now I'll do bet,
'er by you than 1 did by your father
You bring in your 300 bushels of corn
and I'll let you pick out this list":
And the saiesman wrote down:
One $90 buggy.
0118 $50 wagon.
One $20 suif of clothes.
One $20 'dress.
One $5.00 baby dress.
One $5.00 crib.

$2.00 wortk of sugar.
$1.50 550rth of coffee.
$1.00 worth of tea.
$40.00 worth of gasoline.
$2,5 0 worth of lubricating oil.
The total figured $240, the value of
