We have found Tuttle’s Elixir excellent 
for healing cuts on our horses’ legs and 
also for removing bunches caused by outs 
or bruises. It is a valuable all-round 
remedy and should be on hand for emer¬ 
gencies. If you will write the Doctor he 
will send you free a 100-page booklet, 
"Veterinary Experience.” Address Dr. S. 
A. Tuttle, 30 Beverly St., Boston, Mass. 
"Don’t have sour milk.” This is the 
motto used by the Champion Milk Cooler 
Co., Cortland, N. Y., in advertising their 
Champion milk cooler and aerator. The 
Champion is an implement which ought to. 
have a place on every farm where cows are 
kept. It takes out all animal heat, foul 
odors, and retards the development of the 
germs which cause milk to sour. Send for 
their free booklet on "Milk and Its Care.” 
When you are called upon to paint a 
house, do you prefer the combination paint 
made from zinc white and so-called "inert 
pigments,” that will surely Involve the use 
of the dangerous gasoline torch, when re¬ 
moval becomes necessary, or the pure white 
lead, that affords more perfect protection 
for the wood, during a longer period, and 
which can be repainted whenever it may 
be desired, without Incurring any risk? 
The brands of pure white lead manufac¬ 
tured by the National Lead Company are 
made by the “old Dutch process” of slow 
corrosion, and are uniformly the best white 
lead it is possible to manufacture. Use 
them, and you will insure permanent sat¬ 
isfaction. 
Very many farmers buy a set of low 
wheels for use on the farm, and a set of 
high wheels for road hauling. The ad¬ 
vantages of wide tires and low-down 
wagons have been so thoroughly discussed 
in the press and at institutes and clubs 
that there Is small need of repeating them 
here. It has been demonstrated time and 
again that they mean easy loading and 
easy hauling: they save the man, they 
save the horses, they save the fields, for 
they do not "rut” nor cut up the ground 
as a narrow tire does. If you have not a 
low-down handy wagon we know that it 
will pay you to investigate. Send for the 
Electric catalogue. It’s free. Address 
Electric Wheel Co., Quincy, Ill. 
For the last two or three years. Dr. Sloan 
has sent free to anyone who requested It, 
his "Treatise on the Horse,” and wherever 
it has gone it has been prized for its valu¬ 
able advice on the care, comfort and health 
of the horse, and what methods and medi¬ 
cines to use when the animal is sick. It 
has saved many people money which they 
would otherwise have spent on a veteri¬ 
nary. Now, Dr. Sloan has written another 
book just as valuable for the woman of 
the house, entitled "Sloan’s Handy Hints 
and Up-to-to-date Cook Book.” It is a 
book of 48 pages, illustrated throughout 
with original sketches, and giving all the 
latest recipes from the making of bread 
and rolls to the newest thing In salads, 
pickles and ices. By sending your name 
and address written plainly on a postal 
card to Dr. Earl S. Sloan, Boston, Mass., 
you will receive one of these valuable 
books.
