And  Calf  Cholera  kills  thousands  of  calves.  The  digestive  organs 
are  paralyzed;  food  lies  in  an  undigested  mass  in  the  stomach; 
it  sours  and  ferments  and  sickens.  Do  you  wonder  that  so  many 
calves  die  in  a  few  hours  after  cholera  strikes  ? 
Dr.  David  Roberts’ 
CALF  CHOLERA  REMEDY 
overcomes  the  trouble  by  righting  the  digestive  organs.  It  regulates  the  flow 
of  gastric  juice  and  soothes  and  heals  the  sore  mucous  membrane.  It  liquefies 
the  poisonous  gases  already  formed  in  the  stomach  and  prevents  fermenta¬ 
tion.  Digestion  becomes  normal  and  the  disease  is  ended.  Don’t  let  the 
trouble  go  too  far.  Begin  wilh  Calf  Cholera  Remedy  right  away  when  scours 
appear.  Disease  is  highly  contagious. 
Cow  Cleaner  helps  cows  at  calving  time.  Cleans  and  removes  the 
afterbirth  naturally;  leaves  organs  in  healthy  breeding  condition. 
Use  AntUepto  to  soothe  and  heal  soreness. 
Cow  Tonic  aids  digestion,  tones  and  conditions  the  cow  system, 
keeps  up  appetite  and  prevents  falling  off  of  milk. 
Breeding  Tonic  prepares  and  conditions  for  breeding.  Calves  are 
drofiped  naturally,  complications  are  avoided.  Use  also  for  breed¬ 
ing  mares,  ewes  and  sows. 
Calf  Meal,  Diolice.  Rodger  Balm,  Laxotonic  and  Stolcvigor  are  Dr. 
Roberts' Prescriptions  which  mean  better  live  stock.

Frank  of  Peach  Hill 
By  Geo.  B.  Fiske 
(Continued  from  page  GG1) 
“Well  they  do  swallow  things  pretty 
easily  sometimes,”  admitted  Landers. 
“Forget  to  look  at  the  barns,  don’t  go 
down  cellar,  never  notice  the  water  sup¬ 
ply,  nor  go  over  the  woodlot,  and  some¬ 
times  fairly  take  the  farmer's  breath 
away  by  paying  all  he  asks  for  the  farm 
without  a  kick.  Seems  to  think  it’s  a  do* 
n  at  ion  party.  If  the  preacher  has  money 
enough  to  make  the  first  payment  he 
seems  to  think  that  settles  the  whole  bus¬ 
iness.  But  the  rub  comes  at  the  second 
payment.. 
“A  man  who  is  out  of  training  for  farm 
life,”  continued  the  agent,  “whose  most 
active  time  of  life  is  over,  finds  the  proper 
management  of  a  big  farm  a  very  severe 
strain.  Very  few  can  make  the  change 
successfully.  On  the  other  baud  such  peo¬ 
ple  do  well  on  small  [daces  which  they 
can  pay  for  in  full  and  have  plenty  of 
working  capital  left  over.  I  call  to  mind 
the  case  of  Mr.  White,  lie  was  a  travel¬ 
ling  salesman,  was  at  least  50  years  old 
when  he  bought  a  village  farm  of  eight 
acres,  started  a  little  hand  delivery  milk 
route,  sells  eggs,  fruit  and  vegetables,  get¬ 
ting  top  prices,  without  overwork  and 
worry.” 
“Yet  I  have  always  had  the  impression 
that  a  cheap  farm  is  usually  a  poor  bar¬ 
gain.”  observed  .John  Joy. 
“A  small  village  farm  is  not  usually 
cheap  for  its  size,”  returned  Landers. 
“What  I  meant  by  cheap  farms  are 
rough,  poor  and  lonely.  I  do  not  recom¬ 
mend  very  cheap  farms;  such  are  best 
adapted  for  Summer  residences  for  people 
who  have  some  other  menus  of  income.” 
“lie  might  jump  out  of  the  frying  pan 
into  the  fire,”  commented  the  neighbor. 
“Every  locality  and  every  farm  lias  its 
faults.  One  who  leaves  a  farm  that  he 
knows  well  for  one  of  which  he  knows 
little  is  sure  to  meet  surprises,  some  of 
them  disagreeable.  There’s  Will  Har¬ 
ding  sold  his  farm.  The  soil  is  rather 
light  and  droughty  and  frost  strikes 
early.  lie  bought  the  Ellis  farm  because 
the  soil  looks  dark  and  heavy,  and  paid  :i 
big  price  and  gave  a  mortgage.  Then, 
after  floundering  about  in  the  mud  and 
water  for  a  couple  of  years  and  raising 
nothing  much  but  some  grass,  he  waufcs 
to  sell.” 
“If  the  old  farmers  make  such  mis¬ 
takes,”  said  Joy,  “think  of  the  risks  run 
by  greenhorns.  It  makes  me  laugh  some¬ 
times,  hut  it’s  a  serious  matter  for  them. 
The  average  city  man,  sharp  and  quick 
as  lie  may  be.  and  slow  as  he  believes  the 
farmer  to  be,  is  no  match  for  a  shrewd 
land  owner  anxious  to  sell  and  hacked  by 
the  eloquence  of  a  real  estate  agent.” 
“Fools !”  remarked  Bunco. 
“Most  of  us,”  agreed  Landers.  “Now, 
for  instance,  where  do  you  buy  your  fer¬ 
tilizers  for  your  own  farm?” 
“At  the  store,  of  course.” 
“Exactly.  The  storekeeper  buys  of  the 
general  travelling  salesman  for  the  dis¬ 
trict,  and  both  of  them  get  their  profit  or 
salary,  which  is  the  same  thing.  The  man¬ 
ufacturer  lniys  his  chemicals  of  the  im¬ 
porter  and  charges  a  big  profit  for  mix¬ 
ing,  advertising  and  credit.  The  importer 
buys  of  first  hands.  You  might  buy  of 
the  importer  if  you  or  your  friends  were 
smart  enough.  Where  do  you  get  your 
groceries?” 
"At  the  same  store.”  replied  Bnnce  un¬ 
easily.  “I  suppose  the  grocer  makes  liis 
profits.” 
“Of  course  he  does,  besides  making  up 
loss  by  had  bills  and  credit.  And  the 
drummer  doesn't  work  for  nothing,  nor 
do  the  jobbing  firms,  nor  the  wholesalers 
nor  the  importers,  who  often  buy  of  a 
fresh  set  of  middlemen  in  foreign  coun¬ 
tries.  Just  so  with  your  machinery,  seeds, 
household  goods;  all  supporting  a  hunch 
of  middlemen.  Of  course  you  have  your 
reasons.  It  is  convenient,  you  can  get 
credit.  The  dealer  will  buy  apples  and 
potatoes  of  you.  He  is  your  friend.  You 
can  see  the  goods  before  taking.  You 
have  your  reasons  and  so  do  the  people 
who  pay  me  my  profits.  Some  people 
don't  know  how  to  buy  anything.  So  we 
that  buy  and  sell  for  a  living  step  in  and 
help.”
