LIFE NOT WORTH LIVING Is tho way Miss Alta Abel of West Baden, Ind., summed up her existence after having sought in vain for health. She writes: "I was a complete wreck k ?always tired, worn out and. nervous. $ I bad to spend about one-third of my time in bed. "Vinol, your delicious cod liver and Iron tonic, was recommended, and I can truly say It has done mo more jrood than all the medtclm I overtook in my life. That nervous and tired t feeling Is all gone. I have gained in \\ health, flesh and strength, until I feel like another person." (We guarantee this testimonial to be genuine.") What Vlnol did for Miss Abel, we know It will do for every nervous, run-down, overworked, tired, thin and "discouraged woman in this vicinity. ?fe Try a bottle of Vinol with the un> ^Jm'ts(andlng that your money will bo returned if it does not help you.

Let any farmer walk througl Is field of wheat, and be will Und ..at all the heads are not alike, even if sown from the best standard varieties of seed wheat. He will find that some heads are longer than others, some broader, some with more grains to the head, and some tighter in the chaff, and so on. It has recently be come fully known that most of these variations, unless they are directly induced by a patch of richer soil, are Strictly and fully inheritable, and are , transmitted to their progeny in full vigor and perfection. If fanners who are specially interested in improving the yields and quality of their wheats will go through their lielils al harvest time, and pick out the best heads from their Heids, anil thresh and save them for stock seed, they will lind that it will result in a considerable 1 improvement in the yield quality and uniformity of the crop produced an other season. Kven if the fanner on ly picks out enough heads to make a bushel to a bushel and a half of se lect seed, this will give him enough lo sow an acre of wheat for the next season, and that will produce a su perior grade of seed. The product of this should give him sufficient seed to give him a good start towards his full seeding for the following year. We are following out this method of selection on our own farms, and we hope by this means to eventually in crease the yield of different varieties of wheat which we offer, materially; but farmers can accomplish very gen erally the same results for themselves, if they will follow out the practice as above indicated. and increased yields pt : acre of all wheats sown can very soon come to be realized, provided this n uthod is generally practiced in Hie saving and selection of seed wheat.
