IT DID ME A I WORLD OF GOOD” * (rs. Elmore Uses Forceful Words to Describe Help Gained in Trutona. —— * X Vincennes, hid., Sept. 15—“Triii na has done me a world of good, i, that it has helped me to rid myip|f of a great deal of worry- and tinileasantness,” Mrs. Emily B. Elmore, ( well known Vincennes woman of hi) Emison Avenue, said recently, i “For about, a year I've been botherL with a combination of stomach, 'iver and kidney troubles. I'd exxrience severe pains in my stomach. »..)ecially after eating pork or anyhing greasy. At times I felt so bad_v I didn’t have anv appetite at all. ' frequently suffered severe pains in nv back and sides. Dizzy spells and aeiching annoyed me, too. I felt tired and draggy most of the time. I feel more like myself, since taking Trutona. My appetite has improved wonderfully and i can . eat trust anything now without fear of the former bad after effects. I really >ujo.v my meals nowadays. The- pains in my sides and back have been re-li.-ved. The dizzy spells have almost ceased to occur too. Trutona is without a doubt a good medicine and [ >". glad to indorse it.” Mrs. Elmore’s sincere statement should appeal to the thousands of men and women in this vicinity who are suffering from troubles similar to hers. Trutona is excellent for stomach, bowel and liver, troubles, indigestion, lack of appetite, nervoush;ss. sleeplessness, general debility and the like. Trutona is now being introduced and explained in Decatur at Smith, Yager & Falk’s. • 29 head hogs, good feeders and Big Type registered boar at my sals, Sept.

THE CALF CLUB Club is Being Organized and More Enteries are Desired by Management ' SEND APPLICATIONS i I To George Martin, Martin Gerke or Fred Busche— Want Boys arid Girls. ♦ . A few days ago an article appeared In this paper concerning the foundation of a calf club nuder the management of the Decatur Shorthorn asso-| elation. Since thatxtime application! entries have been, received from several young people. However, in order to make the club a complete success, the association desires several more entries. All good farmers are in favor of the “back to the farm” movement, or at least are not desirous of seeing the young people of the country go to the city. During these uncertain times.it . is especially advisible that the farmer | keep both feet on the ground and I keep as much help at home as possible. Here is an excellent chance to Interest the boys and girls in the farm, and once they are interested in some kind of farm work, they are very likely to stick to it. Encourage the boys and girls to join the calf club, and heli) them out , financially if they need it. What is a better investment on the farm than ja pure bred heifer? IS they own the heifer themselves. ] they will take an interest in her, and I from the interest in this one animal will grow an interest in the rest of the farm. The club will be of no financial

INSPECTION OF ALL MEAT URGED Washington, D. C—The stability of the live stock and meat industries of ■ ■ his country depends on pnblic con- , fidence, and until the public has asIsurance that all of its meat is wholeI T»me the work of establishing public confidence will be incomplete. At j present about two-thirds of the meat supply is federally inspected and ] stamped accordingly by the United States department of agriculture, hut until something effective is done toward insuring' proper inspection of the remaining one-third which is slaughtered and sold entirely within state btfundaries and over which the I national government lias no direct authority, the public, as a whole, can ] never feel certain that the purity and wholesomeness of its entire meat supply is assured. • Those statements were emphasized by Dr. John It. Mohler, chief of the

bureau of animal industry of the tlnited States department of agriculture, in an address on September 16, before the American Meat Packers’ association in session at Atlantic City. The Bureau of animal industry, he 1 said, has just completed a survey of ' municipal and statement inspection. I L The data gathered show that less htan ‘one-third of the cities in the United i States with a population of 5,000 or J more maintain any kind of meat inspection. Where inspection is main-] tained it is frequently incomplete. | I Less than one-fourth of the cities re-[ porting indicated that ante-iportem f examinations are made and in many s 'cases little assurance was furnished j that condemned meats were actually t withheld from distribution. i “If your association has not already I I taken active interest in municipal I and state inspection,” Dr. Mohler con-I I tinued, ‘my remarks would be incom- ] :plete if I did not urge upon you a ' i close study of the Conditions and prob-

I f I ; B KXPk evektbody goBUICK I The Buick Dry Plate Clutch The exclusive patented features of the Buick disc clutch minimize the effort and skill necessary in gear shifting, and at the same time provide a clutch that is absolutely smooth and positive in operation. Under this patented construction, the heavy rotating parts of the clutch are carried by the flywheel and only the very light parts are carried by the transmission, which accounts for the transmission gears not spinning after clutch is disengaged, thus preventing the clashing of gears in shifting from one speed to another. The slightest pressure of the foot will disengage this smooth acting Buick clutch, which makes it especially popular with women drivers and those who drive much in congested traffic.
