Because it is the only generalweekly farm paper Actually Printed in Chicago, the great live stock market of the middle west. It presents a Weakly Trade Letter, prepared by a market expert, and a most reliable review of the Live Stock and Grain Market is found in The Farmers’ Review each week. Because it is Practical, Useful and Dependable. Its Editorial Policy is Free, Independent and Fearless. It is the paper you want to know because it is clean, bright and reliable, and because it is Honest. Because it serves No Other Interest save that of the farmer and his family. It is safe for your wife and children to read, and every member of the family will read it with Pleasure and Profit. Because it is Edited by Farmers—for Farmers. It is down to the earth, close to the plain people, and tells what you want to know in Language that You Can Understand. Because it Jias a Larger Farm Corresponding Staff than any other farm paper. More than 250 Men and Women on the Farm write regularly for The Farmers’ Review, giving Reliable and Workable facts. Because it has a Farm Contributor in Every County in which it circulates. Over 500 Farmers regularly report agricultural crop conditions through its columns. Because it publishes only Original Matter/using no syndicated or duplicated articles. It is Weekly—Timely— Not containing material two weeks or a month old before reaching the reader. Because it Contains only Proved, Reliable Information — not untried suppositions or theories. All its departments are Up-to-Date Sources of valuable and reliable farm information. Because it is Not Afraid to Speak the Truth and Stand Fairly and Squarely for Agriculture. It has gained the Respect and Confidence of its readers by helping them, and always championing their interests. Because its Home and Household Department is conducted by a practical farm woman, and it employs the Best Story Writers to prepare special serials for its columns. Because it accepts No Questionable Advertising or Paid Editorial Puffs from anyone. Frauds Hate It and Fear It — It shows them up. Honest Men Like It and Praise It. Because its Guarantee on Advertisers is a guarantee that means something, and is not merely talk. The foregoing twelve reasons are only a few of the many that make THE FARMERS’ REVIEW—THE PRACTICAL PAPER FOR THE BUSINESS FARMER.

He says from the fact raw hides were put on the free list and consequently shipped to the U. S., that the disease came from them. The facts are they were put on the free list in William H. Taft’s administration, but suppose if we still had a republican administration, the disease would not have broken out. How sad.

O The Physician / \ \\ Indorses / Beer k ’ Because it is Sp H a Healthful 'T'7r y/ I/T Pleasant \ I ' ' Tonic Many eminent physicians and scientists recommend beer as a tonic beverage because it contains, in addition to 3 or 4 per cent, alcohol, about 7 per cent, of grain extract. This extract consists of substances, which, on account of their ready digestibility, possess a high nutritive value. Beer also contains a large amount of refreshing carbonic acid in the most desirable form. Because mild alcoholic beverages, such as beer, will absorb and retain carbonic acid much more readily than other fluids, the carbonic acid gas supplied to the body in beer has a greater food value than the gas supplied in non-alcoholic drinks. Leading physicians have heartily recommended beer as a medium of bodily nourishment and alimentary gratification.
