3JT Price of Horse Feed Continues To Soar, Will ICcjiuil L'p-Keep of Automobile Before Long.

The expense of keeping an automobile, which has long been the great argument of some against buying a ear, will soon be second to the cost of keeping a horse, if prices of feed continue to soar.

Food and livery barns in Greenfield are now facing a scarce bay situation. Farmers have no bay to sell, most of them depending on his neighbor to raise bay for all. For Ibis time of the year such a shortage in bay Iras not been known in a decade. When possible to get any native bay at all, the price ha3 gone up to §20 a ton.

Straw and fodder will be the principal rough feed next winter, as the hay will be so high people can not afford to buy it, even if it can be had at all.

JOHN R. COCHRAN, Lewistown, 111.

Better than any statement we could make regarding the value of

Dr. Miles' Heart Remedy are these words of Mr. Cochran. He speaks from experience, the highest possible source of knowledge. If you have any of the signs of a weak heart, such as pain in the left shoulder or arm, fainting and hungry spells, shortness of breath, smothering spells, fluttering or palpitation of the heart, you need Dr. Miles' Heart Remedy which for over twenty years has been recognized as the best preparation of its kind to be had.
