Tbey bead tbelr flocks With Immature -cockerels, use Immature pullets for breeders or bave no mating system at all, birds of all sizes and ages running together.

Anzloui mothers often wonder why their children *re so pale, thin' and nervoue and have so little appetite. For the benefit of aneh mothers In this vicinity we publish the following letter. J. Edmund Miller, New Haven, Conn., says: "My little dan hter, ever sines her birth, had been frail and sickly, and was a constant source of worrlment Several months ago wa commenced to firs her Vlnol. I im mediately noted an improvement in her health and appearance. I gave her three bottles of Vlnol, and from the good it has dons her I can truly say It will do all you claim." This child's recovery was due to the combined action of the medicinal elements extracted from coda* livers, —combined with the blood-making and strength-creating _ properties of tonic iron, which are contained in Vinol. Vlnol will build up and strengthen delicate children, old people and the wealth ran-(Vown and debilitated. We return the money in every case whei* It tails. Graham Drag Co., Graham, N. C. READERS.
