Reared Her Family
-WITH—
w SIMPLE HOME REMEDY
An American Mather Beat* Them All
There are few families in which the
recent of Mrs. Gustave Koch, Box 24,
Kewick, Keokuk County, Iowa, has been
surpassed. Not in the fact that she
raised a family of eight !a her story
remarkable. Thousands of families
are larger. The history of the Koch
family Is unique In that the mother,
with all her loving care, pinned her
faith to a simple home remedy and
never had a doctor for her children.
Here Is what she says: "Peruna has
done my children good. I have a
family of eight and never had a
doctor, only your medicine. We all
think Peruna a splendid tonic.”
Ho far as we have learned, Pe
runa Is the only known remedy for
which such a wonderful claim can
bs made. Like Mrs. Koch, there
are thousands upon thousands of
mothers who place their entire de
pendence upon Peruna.
That Peruna has merited this
confidence Is attested by the words

WOMEN NEED SWAMP-ROOT
Thousands of women have kidney and

Womens’ complaints often prove to be

result of kidney or bladder disease.
if the kidneys are not in a healthy
condition, they may cause the other or

BALANCED RATION FOR COWS
Important to Furniij Varioua Nutri
ents in Proportion the Animal
Needs Them.
(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
It Is probably well to refer to the
composition of feedstuffs as it relates
to economical feeding of the dairy
cow. The cow takes into her digestive
system feeds which she utilizes for
the production yf body tissues, heat
ing the body, performing bodily func
tions. such as digesting feed, moving

Palatable Feed.
from place to place, and for milk pro
duction. It Is sufficient to say that
the constituents or compounds and the
relative quantities necessary for these
operations have been determined; that
is, we know that milk contains protein
utnl energy or heat-producing constit
uents, the protein being represented
hy the casein and albumin and the
energy and heat-producing constit
uents by the fat and sugar. In addi
tion to the constituents or compounds
necessary for the production of milk,
she also must have the constituents
necessary for performing the other
functions mentioned. These, for con
venience, have been classified into
proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. Fats
perform much the same functions ns
carbohydrates and are worth for pro
duction practically two and one-fourtli
times as much per pound as carbohy
drates, and In the balancing of a ra
tion are usually classed with them.
This brings us to a definition of a
“balanced ration,” which is a ration
containing these various nutrients in
the proportion the cow needs them.
The economical importance of a bal
anced ration Is evident. The cow can
use only certain elements or com
pounds In certain proportions; conse
quently, if the ration supplies an ex
cessive amount of any one, the excess
Is liable to be wasted. Not only is
this true, but as the cow lias to as
similate it even though she cannot
use it. her capacity for production Is
reduced.
In making n ration, cost Is one of
the important factors. The best prac
tice ts to compound a grain mixture
so that It will balance with the home
grown roughage. With this in mind,
the separate grains should be selected
to supply the necessary nutrients ut
the lowest possible cost. For this, not
only the price per hundred pounds but
also the relative cost of each constit
uent, especially protein, must be con
sidered. For example, to determine the
cost of a pound of digestible protein
in a given feed divide the price of 100
pounds by the per cent of digestible
protein In the feed. If this calculation
is made for several feeds, the relative
cost of protein In each will be appar
ent. Then the feeds that furnish pro
tein at the least cost can be selected.
The same can be done to determine
the cost of the carbohydrates and fat,
which are the heat-making or energy
producing part of the feed.
KEEPING UP SOIL FERTILITY
Growing of Green Manure Crops Must
Be Practiced Where Other Fer
tilizer Is Unavailable.
When barnyard manure, straw or
stubble, are not available for use as
fertilizer, then the growing of green
manure crops must be practiced. Soil
fertility must be kept up and there
must- be the right supply of humus.
There are very few farms where
enough manure is produced so that the
green-manure crops are not needed.
However, where all the barnyurd ma
nure is properly saved, there Is less
need for the green manures. If the
green crops, mainly the legumes, are
grown In sufficient amount for aiding
In fertility, the soil enn be kept in
fine condition even If there Is a short
age of the barnyard manures.

DRUGGISTS! VICK’S VAPORUB
SHORTAGE OVERCOME AT IASI
Tue Deal Scheduled for Last
November, Which Was Post
poned on Account of the Influ
enza Epidemic, Is Now Re-in
stated — Good During the
Month of March.
OVER ONE MILLION JARS
OF VAPORUB PRODUCED
EACH WEEK
It Is with pride that we announce
to the drug trade that the shortage of
Vick’s VapoRub, which has lasted since
last October, is now overcome. Since
January 1st, we have been running our
laboratory twenty-three and a half
hours out of every twenty-four. Lost
week we shipped the last of our back
orders, and retail druggists, therefore,
are no longer requested to order in
small quantities only.
NOVEMBER DEAL REINSTATED
This deal, which we had expected to
put on last November and which had to
be postponed on account of the short
age of VapoRub, is re-instated for the
month of March. This allows a dis
count of 10% on shipments from Job
bers' stock of quantities of from 1 to
4 gross. 5% of this discount is allowed
by the jobber and 5% by us.
We advise the retail druggists to
place tlieir orders immediately, so that
the jobbers will be able to get prompt
shipments to them.
THANKS OF THE PUBLIC DUE THE
DRUG TRADE DURING THE
INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC.
The thanks of the American public
are certainly due the entire drug trade
—retail, wholesale and manufacturing
—for what they accomplished during
the recent influenza epidemic. The
war caused a shortage of physicians—
nurses were almost impossible to ob
tain—the demand on the drug trade
was unexpected and overwhelming,
and to this demand they responded
nobly. Retail druggists kept open day
and night and slept where they drop
ped behind the prescription counter.
Wholesale druggists called their sales
men off the road to help fill orders—
hundreds wired us to ship Vick’s Vapo
Rub by the quickest route, regardless
of expense.
'A tremendous job to increase
OUR PRODUCTION
In this emergency we tried to do our
part. We scoured the country for raw
materials—our Traffic Manager spent
his days riding freight cars in—we
shipped raw materials in carload lots
by express and plended with manufae*
i turers to increase their deliveries to us.
But It was a slow process. Some of
our raw materials are produced only
In Japan—supplies in this country
were low and shipments required three
months to come from the Far East.
Then we had to recruit and train
skilled labor. We brought our sales
men into the factory and trained them
as foremen. We invented new ma
chinery, and managed to install it on
Christmas Day, so as not to Interfere
with our daily production.
143 JARS OF VAPORUB EVERY
MINUTE DAY AND NIGHT
By January 1st we had everything
ready to put on our night shift, and
since then our laboratory has been
running day and night. To feed our
automatic machines, which drop out
one hundred and forty-three jars of
VapoRub a minute or one million m l
eighty thousand weekly, has requir. i
a force of 500 people. Our Cafe De
partment, created for the benefit of
these workers, served 7,000 meals dur
ing the month of January alone.
13 MILLION JARS OF VAPORUB
DISTRIBUTED SINCE OCTOBER.
An idea of the work we have ac
complished this fall may be given
by our production figures—13,028,976
jars of VapoRub manufactured and
distributed since last October—one Jar
for every two families in i lie entire
United States.
During the influenza epidemic Vick's
VapoRub was used as an external ap
plication in connection with tli ? physi
' clan’s treatment, and thousandsgof peo
ple, unable to obtain a doctor, relied
on Vick’s almost exclusively.
