For Hard Coughs or
Colds That Worry You
Creomulsion is made to give supreme
help for coughs or colds. It combines seven
helps in one—the best helps known to
science. It is for quick relief, for safety.
But careful people, more and more, use
it for every cough that starts. No one
knows where a cough may lead. No one
can tell which factor will do most. That
depends on the type of cold.
Creomulsion costs a little more than lesser
helps. But it means the utmost help. And
it costs you nothing if it fails to bring the
(quick relief you seek. Your druggist guar
antees it. Use it for safety's sake, (adv.)

No Decrease Seen
In Poultry Growing
Because poultry growing seems to
provide a fairly dependable source of
income and prices for broilers have
been better than was anticipated, in
dications are that the demand for
baby chicks in North Carolina this
season will continue as good as in
1933.
"However, poultrymen should
carefully select their sources of ba
by chicks and if possible get those
which have been produced from eggs
laid by blood-tested hens," cautions
Roy S. Dearstyne, head of the State
College poultry department. "An
other important point is to be pre
pared for the chicks before they are
received at the farm. Chicks are
highly perishable and the brooder
houses need to be ready in ample
time. We have found that the start
ing of baby chicks for early pullets
or for early broilers is more com
plicated than raising them later in
the season when Sunshine, range
and green feed is available."
Dearstyne says baby chicks start
ed very early have a tendency to
wards leg weakness that later chicko
do not have. This means that the
early chicks should get all the sun
shine possible. Where they do not
have green feed, an extra amount of
cod liver oil needs to be added to
the mash. If the chicks are badly
crowded and the drinking and eating

Baby chicles started early need the
best of care and rigid sanitation.
Carelessness and • indifference in
handling them will prove costly, sayi
the poultryman.

Here is an example of how Cardui
has helped thousands of women;
"I was very thin and pale,"
writes Mrs. F. H. Scott, of Roa
noke, Va. "I suffered from weak

This pain unnerved me, and I did not
feel like doing my work. I did not
care to go places, and felt worn, tired,
dav after day.
J 'My mother had taken Cardui, and
on seeing: my condition she advised
me to try It. I have never regretted
doing so. I took three bottles and It
built me up. I grained In weig;ht, my
color was better and the pain left my
back. I am stronger than I had
been In some time.'
