SIMPLE MIXTURE USED IN PIERZ
Many in Pierz people are now using
the simple bu^kthron bark and glycerine mixture known as Adler-i-ka,
the new German Appendicitis remedy.
A SINGLE DOSE releaves constipation, tour stomach or gas on the stomach almost INSTANTLY. This mixture antiseptizes the digestive organs
and draws oft' tlie impurities and people are surprised how OUICKLY it
helps.    E. L. Kaliher, Druggist.

A BONANZA FARMER
JakeTlioen of Graham, is certainly some farmer. Last week
he sold $"990 worth of stock and
about three weeks ago sudd
$350 worth of hogs. Altogether,
he sold over $1,400 worth of
stock in the la.st month and has
over ninety head of cattle and
thirty work horses left- When
asked how many hogrs he had
left, he shook- Ilia head and
said: "Don't lc  o\v, unt-
ed them."
One half of last year's corn
crop of sixty live acres, with an
average of fifty bushels to tlie
acre, has already been fed to
the stoclc.
