AFTER any serious illness, the first thing you notice when you begin to get around is your lack of strength and energy a tired, weak leeling. The sooner yoa get your strength back the better. The thing to do ts to eat plenty of good, nourishing food, get all the fresh air you can, exercise conservatively, and take Ziron Iron Tonic three times a day. Your doctor will tell you this la Bound advice, and urge you to follow it MOST VALUABLE SHEEg FEED Read this letter from Mr. J. B. Kelly, vice-president of the First National Bank, Graceville, Fla. : "My daughter had been in bad health since last April. Rye Stands at Head of Cereals in She was operated on for appendicitis She has been taking Ziron for two weeks. Her appetite is better than it has been. Her nerves are better, and she says she feels better ... I know that Ziron is good for weak and feeble people." Ziron is a scientific, reconstructive tonic, prepared from valuable strenfth building Ingredients, for weak people with thin blood. Druggists sell Ziron on a money-back guarantee. Try it. Protein Content, but Lacking in Carbohydrates. 0 0 p Whether fed as a grain ration, pas tured, or cut and fed for hay, rye holds a high place for feeding preg nant ewes at weaning time. In its 'lieiuical analysis, rye stands at the i head of the cereals in protein content, but is somewhat lower in carbohy drates than wheat or corn. to This suggests two things in reaard j I to its feeding value: First, to feed in combination with oilier things lack ( ing in protein but rich in fat-form-: ing elements, like corn and wheat. Second, as a feed for young animals in which a high development, of bone and muscle is required. For either I purpose it is highly satisfactory. When i sheep are wintered largely on foddet 1 timothy hny. or other roughage, the j ry- partly makes up for the lack of pr-- in. The greatest facts are the simplest ones. Two and two make four and they make it very fast when you begin adding some money cash pay day to wbat you already have in our bank. If you have a bank balance add to it. If you have no bank account, start one. You will receive 4 per cent interest. MERCHANTS & FARMERS BANK ,---.. ". --', --0-t --s v-06 G Itll soon be in Museums Calomel loses you a day!
