? \F;r example," says W. >V. Shay,
F\*ine extension specialist at State
fY!)ege, "we may take two men,
cach of whom owns ten 50- pound
r:gs. They feed fchoae pigs through
?7s.. period of 70 days. The first man
of art economical trend of mind*
si he reeds his pigs a half ration
v.Ojrch amounts to 1,300 pounds c *st
r < at $ 2 per hundred, $26.00. His
t-ti'a Rain 100 pounds on each 275
? unds of feed ,-J von- them. This
feed costs $5.50 and the gigs gain
n total of 473 pounds, worth at 14
Oents p&r -pm*id. $66.22. Deduct
ing the cost of the feed, the grower
has left $40.22 ; r a profit per ,pig of
54 02.
"New. the se?ond man is out for
t Ve greatest- profit that he . can get
' .it of Ms pigs. Ho full feeds his
t;v pig? with the result that dur
? ? the 70<Iay period they eat 2,?
r?*tf pounds of feed, . costing $->2.00.
r aring that time and with that feed,
t^ey gain- 800 pounds worth at 14
rnt* per pound. $11,2 00. The sec
-M farmer thus makes a t.tal profit

' -Mr. Shay, states that this greatr
v profit would be received even
iVfiugh the feed consumption per
mired, pounds gain in t?:e case of
t4r second farmer's r ) > was 323

?'100 pounds ga?n was 50 wh^ch
one jlollnr more than the first far

Elimination '
Should Be Corrected?Good Elimination
Is Essential to Good Health.
IF you would be well, see to your
elimination. Faulty kidney ac
tion permits toxic material to re
main in the blood and upset the
whole system. Then, one is apt to
have a tired, languid feeling and,
sometimes, a toxic backache or head
ache, and oftcsi sornc irrcgulaiityof
secretions, such as scanty or burn
ing passages. More and more people
are acclaiming the value of Doan's
Pills, a stimulant diuretic, in this
condition. For more than forty years
Doan's have been winning favor the
country over. Ask your neighbor!

An Evidence
of Refinement
Good taste and good health demand
sound teeth and sweet breath.
The use of Wrigley's chewing gum
takes care of this important item of
personal hygiene in a delightful,
refreshing way.
Wrigley's removes odors of dining or
smoking from the breath by cleaning the
teeth, by stimulating the flow of digestive
juices, and by the antiseptic action of the
flavoring extracts for which Wrigley's it
famous ? "The Flavor Lasts!"
-The result is a sweet breath that evidences
care for one's self and consideration for
others ? the final touch of refinement.
Wrigley's Is a thrice daily routine of
people of refinement.

GOOD ADVICE
Advice is hard to lake. II is a human weakness or conceit to think we
"know it all."
Hut advice from older and wiser heads, from people who have graduated
from the school of hard knocks is well worth listening to. Especially by
the young folks.
Thrift^ ? plain common sense applied to spending is absolutely essential
when married. Of course young men and women should save fer the
time when they marry but afterward ? saving is imperative, if they are
to succeed and be happy. ?' :
Savings make a happy home for children? the worthwhile things of
life within your reach.
Reckless, thoughtless spending is fatal to both happiness and success.
