VIOLENCE TALK BARRED BY ATTORNEY-GENERAL Many good--but not very wise--persons seem to think that all advertisements are just the vainglorious braggings of those who publish them-designed to part fools and their money. The truth is that most advertisements are incitements to their readers to do` or be or buy or use something for their immediate or prospective advantage. Advertisers, to be successful and to live long, have to offer something of value or of desix-e#something really wanted or needed by the public. Advertisers, to live long, must not cheat the expectations or condence of those who buy what they offer or propose. 3 ' ; 1'; Here are some questions I never read advertisements- The things which we don't {guy and which bays 3 sickish life. are those which are not advertlsed, and whidx try to ride into public favor on the backs of well advertised moductzs. You see, whether or not you consciously or /habitually read ndvertisunemta, you buy, by preference, what adveutbementn have recommended to your condence and what exzpeonce has proven to be satixfacbmw.

MINERAL MATTER FOR FALL /71; PIGS ' \ If properly fed, a young pig` will increase its weight one hundred times in six months, or from about two pounds at birth to about two hun- dred pounds at six months old. To produce this very rapid growth all the necessary elements, including minerals, must be provided. If min erals are lacking in the ration the pigs become unthrifty in condition, and gro\\'th is much slower. Spring pigs ` secure the necessary minerals largely from pastu1`es and from eating the freshly rooted soil. `.\linerals from . these sources are not available for L full litters, which are fed mainly in , dry lots and pens, and an adequate 1 mineral ration should be provided. 1 Tho nn`.ir`-rnl< *f'mn1rl in Hun nr(lin:n".` J `ml11C1`I1l ration snouiu DC proviueu.
