"WHATS WRONG WITH YOUR CHICKS?
You can’t always tell at first glance—but if chicks
don’t thrive look for lice, especially the big gray
fellows (head lice) on head, neck and under wings.
Act quickly, for two or three such blood suckers can 1
kill a chick in a few days. Not all dead chicks are
murdered by lice, but these lice are killing their
share right along. Don’t you stand for it—You’re not
helpless, for Conkey’s Head Lice Ointment for little
chicks is speedy, sure, and positively doesn’t injure the
chicks. AU Conkey Remedies Guaranteed.

An Appreciation.
Our mother desires us to express
her sincere .appreciation to the peo

Elks who came to lilt her sorrow

and our brother.
Time can never blot the memory
of such loving service—and God
could never give us better people.

Larger Yields the Farmer’s
Greatest Problem
Last year the cotton crop was
farmers a fair price for the things
they produce; but to him personal
ly it is worth just as much to re
duce the cost of production as to
raise the selling price, and he can
do far more at it. The margin be
tween cost and selling price is what
counts, and there is no surer way to
increase this margin than to build
up the soil so as to raise larger crops.
This is, we believe, the first and
greatest thing for fhe farmer to do.
That he is doing it, will not de
crease his efficiency in promoting
any measure for the general good.
It will increase it, indeed; for in
any enconomic struggle the man
who is not his own master finan
