• w cu-wu. Sore Throat
“You may not look upon it seriously, but a sore throat indi
cates a weakness in the bronchial tubes. If neglected it may
soon develop into some chronic complaint.
People who are troubled in this way are most susceptible to
influenza, contract pneumonia readily, and fall easy victims to
consumption.
To remove this irritation, soothe and heal the inflamed mem
brane, there is nothing equal to
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
It gives tone to the weakened tissues of the throat, strengthens
the bronchial tubes, and at the same time builds up the system.
When the throat is healthy, influenza or consumption germs
cannot obtain a foothold. Above all things never neglect a
child’s throat, for it may mean years of suffering for it in after
years.**

Mr. W. C. Owens, Charlotte, N. C.,
feeds thirty cows. He considers Buckeye Hulls the
cheapest feed and gets the best results.
To secure the best results and to develop the ensilage odor, wet the hulls
thoroughly twelve hours before feeding. It is easy to do this by
wetting them down night and morning for the next feeding. If at any time
this cannot be done, wet down at least thirty minutes. If you prefer to
feed the hulls dry, use only half as much by bulk as of old style hulls.
