CONDENMN HIGH PRICED e STOCK FOODS

Prominent Hog Ralser Says Prices Charged Are Unwarranted—Makes His Own Meg Food, With Better

E “That he is al' through paying favcy ;pflea for stock foods and hog remedies and that L. is raising some of the best hogs ever piaced on the market” was the statement made recently by E. H. Beckstead, well known hog raiser and authority on live stock. Mr. Beckstead's hogs are the envy of his neighbors, and have “topped the market” for several year in lowa. He states that for years he bought high-priced hog foods and hog remedies, but he is all through paying extravagant prices for what he can make himself. He states that what the hoge need are mincrals, and tells the secret of his wondrful success by explaining that he takes about five pounds of ordinary mineraline (which is pure concentrated wminerais and cost only » couple of dollars) and mixes same with enough bran or filler to make a hundred pounds. All hogs, and especially brood sows require minerals as they keep them free from worms, and in the pink of condiiion, and areé essential to the hogs growth and a well balanced ration. This - inexpensive mixture placed in a sncltered bux where th» hogs can get at it as they need it, will produce far better results than any high priced so-called stock foods. Send two dollars to The Mineralire Chemical Co., 1638 North Wells St, Chicago, 111, and they will forward you by prepaid parcel post, enough mineraline to make a full hundred pounds. .

WL_ L KNOWN AS MOSES’ POOL

fo Bei'oved to Be That Mentioned in the Bible In Connection With , Great Law Giver.

In the Egyptian desert, about tem miles east of Suez, Is situated a pleturesque pool known as “Meses’ Well” This is believed to be the well mentioned In-the Bible, where Moses, at the bidding of the Lord, cast a branch into the bitter waters, and they were sweetened. Set In a deep grove of date-palms and pomegranate trees, the well is a dark, calm, mysterious looking pool, faithfully reflecting the palms which fringe its edges. The scete at sunrise, when the first rays strike the still water, is exquisite beAttempts to identify various natural beauties and locations with mentions or deseriptions as given In the Bible have always been difficult, owing to the fact that the records of the rulers of Egypt at the time of the captivity of the Jews were destroyed by rulers that came into power immediately afterward. The motive was Jealousy, and a determination to wipe from the minds of the people amy regrets for rulers gone.

WAS VICE PRESIDENT AT 36

John Cabell Breckenridge of Kentucky the Youngest Man Ever to Hold the High Office.

Franklin D. Roosevelt, Democratic candidate for vice president, was asked whether, If elected at thirtyeight, he would be the youngest vice president of the United States. He did not know, but hoped some of his friends would look the matter up. John Cabell Breckenridge was elected vice president on the Democratic ticket with James Buchanan In 1866. He assumed office March 4, 1857, when he was thirty-six years, one month and fourteen days old. When Breckenridge completed his term he was candidate for President as representative -of the slave-holding interests, but was defeated b’y. Lincoln. The same year he was elected to the United States senate, but soon afterward jolped the Confederate army. From January to April, 1865, he was secretary of war In the cablnet of Jeff Davis. He died in Lexington, Ky., May 17, 1875."

- Not long ago a little Indlanapolis girl had the whooping-cough and greatly enjoyed the distinction given the house by the sign, “Whooping-Cough Within,” so much so, indeed, that she wept when it was taken down.
