 product and also marketed combined 

 with Cod Liver Oil. All inlants trom 

 time of birth should receive, pieter- 

 ablv. Cod Liver Oil combined with 

 X'iosterol. OccasionalK mothers have 

 difficulty in administering Cod 1 iver 

 t)il. It is then advisable to give \'io- 

 stcrol as it has none of the disagreeable 

 qualities attendant on taking C!od 

 Liver Oil. 



My intention in writing this article 

 is to advise mothers not to discontinue 

 the use of Cod Liver Oil as many 

 mothers have done due to the wide 

 publicity this new product has attained, 

 but to use Cod Liver Oil and Viostcrol 

 combined, thereby deriving the benefits 

 of other vitamins in Cod Liver Oil and 

 the high Vitamin D content of \'io- 

 sterol. 



Vi'hen \'iosterol is used not in con- 

 junction with Cod Liver Oil, it is well 

 to observe the following dosages: 



New-born infants, 12 to 18 drops 

 daily. 



Twins and premature infants, 20 to 

 30 drops daily. 



Active rickets, 20 to 30 drops daily. 



Farms Earn 3.7', 



Ll .\N a» it was, 1929 was ilic >i.'sonJ best 

 year tor farm earnings in 1929 since the 

 depression began in 1920, according to sum- 

 maries of accounts of 1,9 5 farmers in 90 coun- 

 ties of Illinois made by the State College of 

 -Agriculture. 



It was calculated that the average farmer of 

 the state made J. 7 per cent on his capital dur- 

 ing 1929. Lven the progressive and business- 

 like farmers who kept accounts in the college's 

 farm accounting service earned only enough 

 in 1929 to pay themselves a wage of $75 a 

 month for their labor and management, after 

 they had been allowed J per cent on their capi- 

 tal. It has been shown repeatedly that the 

 earnings of tie rank and file are lower than 

 those of the account keepers.

Sell Apples Co-Operatively

 ern Illinois Apple Growers' Asso- 

 ciation representing some 1.400 acres of 

 orchards expect to sell co-operativelv 

 between 150 and 200 carloads of apples

As we go to press a survey is being 

 nude by A. B. Lccper of the I. A. .\. 

 to get more accurate information about 

 the 1930 production of popular varie- 

 ties including Vi'illow Twig. Jonathan 

 and Grimes Golden. The Willow Tw ig 

 apple is produced almost exclusively in 

 western Illinois. It is an old varieiv 

 and keeps longer perhaps than an\ 

 other when properly packed. The 

 Willow Twig is cspecialK desirable for 

 both eating and cooking, and is in 

 n^.uch demand.
