Of course you want your children to have a better
chance than you had every good father does. You
want your daughters to marry well and you want
your sons to have enough capital and sufficient edu
cation to begin their farming careers almost at the
point you have reached after years of toil.
Many a farmer has found in pure-breds the solution
for the two outstanding problems how to keep the
children contented with farm life, and how to start
them out so that they are bound to achieve success.
One Ohio farmer's plan is typical.
When his eldest son was 12 years old
he went to the bank and borrowed
$350 to buy a registered bull and two
registered heifers. In eight years
this investment has grown into a
pure-bred herd which has provided
schooling for three children, a com
fortable home for the family and a
permanent, prosperous business for
himself and the boys. " I didn't have
to beg the youngsters ta stay on the
farm," the father says, "they got to
liking the cattle." Pure-breds do
keep the children on the farm; they
do make farming a profession worth
following.
Doubtless you started with
scrubs maybe you haven't even yet
overcome this handicap to success.
Let your children start with pure
breds they deserve it. And let them
start, too, with that great service
weekly which has con tribute cir so
much to the cattle-raising industry

"The persons responsible for ex

Insurance Co. of practically all of its
funds will have either a civil or
criminal action brought against
them."
This announcement was made by
William J. Hotz, Omaha attorney,
and director of the company, yes
terday, following his return from
Lincoln. 'where, a meeting of the
stockholders wfs held Monday.
"The board of directors was given
absolute authority to continue their
investigations and bring whatever
action they deem fit," said Mr.' Hotz.
"We cannot say what that action
will be until we have completed our
investigations. The inquiry of the
exploitation of the company is go
ing along and we expect to have the
responsibility located within a short
time."
John Hartigan, lawyer cf Fairbury,
was elected president of the insur
ance company. Other officers and
directors are as follows:
I. W. Itockney, Lincoln, first vice
president! H. K. Franz, Eagle, sec
ond vice president; It. F. Ireland
Lincoln, secretary-treasurer; William
Mueller. Springfield; P. A. Blinder
nagel, Beatrice; O. C Anderson, West
Point; H. K. Holtz, Omaha, directors
The stockholders voted apprecia
tion to the state department of trade
and commerce for its handling of the
affairs of the company since they
were taken over, and for its efforts
to save the stockholders from serious
losses. The stockholders also re
quested that the affairs of the com
pany be turned over to them and the
new bear dof directors as soon as
possible.
The board was also given power to
settle all claims against the com
pany and to cancel or re-issue all
policies dated prior to the time the
state took control.

"That he is all through paying
fancy prices for stock foods and hog
remedies and that he is raising some
of the best hogs ever placed on the
market" was the statement made re
cently 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 years in
Iowa. He states that for years he
bought high-priced hog foods and hog
remedies, but he is all through pay
ing extravagant prices for what he
can made himself. He states that
what the hogs need are minerals, and
tells the secret of his wonderful suc
cess by explaining that he takes about
five pounds of ordinary mineraline
(which is pure concentrated minerals
and cost only a couple of dollars) and
mixes same with enough brtan or
filler to make a hundred pounds. All
hogi, and especially brood sows re
quire minerals as they keep them free
from worms, and in the pink of con
dition, and are essential to the hogs
growth and a well balanced ration
This inexpensive mixture placed in
a sheltered box where the 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 Mineraline
Chemical Co., 1638 North Wells St..
Chicago 111., and the ywlll forward
you by prepaid parcel post, enough
mineraline to make a full hundred
pounds. (Adv.)
per as well as a downey couch on
which to rest for the night and with
the promise of another feed in the
morning. The dawning brought to
the section foreman a sad awaken
ing as when he went to call his
guest he found him not there, and
also discovered that the party he
had sheltered had decamped together
with a watch belonging to the fore
man and several other small articles.
The matter was reported to SheriiT
Quinton who has been in touch with
the Omaha authorities hoping to lo
cate "Dago Pete" in that city whic'i
is supposed to be his home. So fr
no trace of either the man or watch
has been found and the foreman has
an appreciation of the deep sting of
ingratitude.
