A careful consideration of the
"auses for the above comparison
makes it plain that the 'lialitv
of the soil has hut little to do
with the size of the crop raised,
whereas skill in cultivation has
nearly everything to do with it.
The farmers of Ohio and Penn
sylvania have a natioual repu
tation for hard, intelligent labor
and scientific farming methods.
The results show bow well they
earn their reputation and how
well their methods pay. Ala
t^iina and Georgia produced but
]4 7 and 12.5 bushels per acre
each, and though this is slightly
btflytw their average, the records
goltjshow that poor cultivat
tow in the Southern States rath
?wr'thaii poor soil is responsible
JwJipfaf crops.
When it is further observed that
<hfe'<}bAltty of Ohio's corn yield
ftV ^ju^ipvrrent year i-t rated at
l)i$ per cent, while triat of Iowa
is but?MJ, Arkansas but 82, and
the fourth in rank of
IVyfgyftt corn States, but 80
per cern^there appears anotuer
good reason why the farmers of
i tjtib l.jvu.Dtsl StateH should be cou
i?fcaut|y. .encouraged to study

Emulsion
1
of Cod Liver Oil is the means '
of life and enjoyment of life to
thousands: men, women and
children.
When appetite fails, it restores ,
it. When food is a burden, it
lifts the burden.
When you lose flesh, it brings
the plumpness of health.
When work is hard and duty
is heavy, it makes life bright.
It is the thin edge of the wedge;
the thick end is food. But
\vhat is the use of food when
you hate it and can't digest it?
Scott's Emulsion of Cod Liver
Oil is the food that makes you
forget your stomach.
