Culling Time Is HerePoultry Raisers, Send Those Non-Pro-

ducers To Market.S a v e T h a t H i g h P r i c e d G r a i n

Poultry milling is now a well developed and exact scienoe, still there are many who do not fully appreciate the advantage* that may be secured by practical culling, no fanner or poultry- man can afford to neglect having the laying flock culled each sea­son. . ,

In even the best flocks there will be found more than enough inferior ones to repay the owner for the expense of having them culled, while in most flocks the percentage of unprofitable layer* usually run as high as forty to fifty per cent of the entire flock.

We will guarantee that ytm will get more eggs with less feed from half the number of hens if properly called than you got be­fore from your entire flock. We solicit your culling upon the merits of our work only and if you are not more than . satisfied with results your money will be cheerfully refunded. ______ ^

:| Safeguard Your Children’s Health

This is always of vital importance. Many simple ailments under­mine a child’s health, preventing physical and mental progress if not corrected. /

A simple, harmless and yet most effective perparatlon for children's use Is MILK OF MAGNESIA. Doctors recommend it as an antacid and milk laxative. Colic, flatulence .constipation, bil­iousness, Intestinal indigestion, dyspeptic diarrhea and hives are a few of the many children's ailments which are promptly relieved by using It according to directions.

REXALL MILK OF MAGNESIA is best. It is many times more I ! effective as an antacid than lime water, and it is mildly laxative. . . Lime water pfi the other hand is constipating, a condition we should ; ; avoid when giving medicine to children. It Is superior to chalk, as< > the latter constipates and causes flatulence. Bicarbonate of Soda ' ' has a disagreeable taste and often causes flatulence and nausea. ! ! REXALL MILK OF MAGNESIA has none of these disadvantages.' ’ Solid forms of magnesia are not entirely soluble and may caues ! ! dangerous concretions during continued use. REXALL MILK OF ' 1 MAGNESIA Is entirely soluble In the acids of the stomach and ln- | ; testlnes and possesses all the virtues with none of the dlsadvant- 1 1 ages of the solid forms.! ! Use MILK OF MAGNESIA whenever an antacid or laxative Is ; ; indicated. You will safeguard your children’s health.' ' REXALL MILK OF MAGNESIA Is made full U. S. Pharmaco- ! ! poelal strength and purity and by a process peculiar to this brand . • alone which makes It a most elegant and stable compound; almost

tasteless. It is pleasant to take, highly efficacious and reliable and ! I not In any way Injurious. Be sure to get REXALL MILK OF MAG-< - NE8 IA at the Rexall Drug Store, as It Is not obtainable at any other.

DRIVE—HARD TO PULLWhy build a few rods of fence a day by digging holes for

wooden posts, filling them in again, and tramping, when you can set Ankorite Steel Posts as fast as you can drive them—300 or more a day! You can build as much fence working alone as three or four men can build with wooden or concrete posts, and you’ll have a better job.

That’s what makes the Ankorite Steel Post the cheapest—in the fence line—to say nothing of its long life and neat appearance.

And above all, don’t fail to get the famous Patented Crimped Anchor found only on Ankorite Posts. It’s a safe-guard against future disappointment—the big outstanding improvement that makes the Ankorite Steel Post better without adding to its cost.

SCORE AT FINISH GIVES PEKIN GAME

Chatsworth Loses. Exciting Game Sunday at Pekin by Score

of 6 to 5.

DOMINICK R. HERBER1CHD. V. 1L

VETERINARIANSpecialist on Sterility and Canines. Office at Residence, west end of Main Street. Phone 75. CHATSWORTH, - ILLINOIS

Frank H. Funk, of Bloomington,I hereby announces that he is a candi­date in the Republican primary in September for Representative in Congress of the 17th congressional district, comprising the counties of McLean, Livingston, Woodford, Lo-

| gan and Ford, and solicits the sup­port of all Republicans of the dis­trict.

The following editorial in refer­e n ce to Mr. Funk's candidacy ap­peared in the Bloomington Panta- graph of July 13th:

'The announcement of Frank H.I Funk, of Bloomington, that he is a I candidate in the Republican primary in September for representative in

I the lower house of congress of the Seventeenth congressional district, comprising the counties of McLean. Ford, Logan, Livingston and Wood­ford. provides the Republicans of the district with a capable candidate in the primary and a probable primary nominee who should be victorious by the normal large majority in Novem-

| her. I'Mr. Funk is well qualified for the

I place to which he aspires. The Sev­enteenth is the richest agricultural

| district in the country, if not in th e' world, and its representative in con-,

|gress should understand and be in­terested in agricultural pursuits. Mr. Funk is a native of McLean county, the largest county in the district, and agriculture is and always has been his first consideration. An ex-

j tensive land owner himself, lie is ever on the alert to improve his own acres and to advance farming gener­ally by means of preserving the fer-| tility of the soil and by the adoption of modern and up-to-date fanning

1 methods."But it is not only his vital inter-

st and activities in things agricul- I tural that commends Frank H. Funk for representative in congress. He has had experience as a legislator, having represented the Twenty-sixth senatorial district comprising the

| counties of McLean and Ford, in the Illinois stale senate from 1909 to 1913. He was delegate from the

I Seventeenth congressional district to 1 the Republican national convention

ibis year."In addition to this legislative ex-

Monday’s Peoria Star had the fol­lowing account of Sunday's game at Pekin:

"Yesterday's game between Chats­worth and the Pekin Fans’ team was won and lost by both nines before Pekin finally won it by scoring in tlie ninth with one out. It was an exciting battle, with enough hits and errors to keep the bugs on the anx­ious seat until the final in the ninth when "Mickey" Grant slid home with the winning tally on a neatly executed squeeze play.

The game was witnessed by one of the largest crowds of the season, a large number coming from Tremont to see Eddie Cooney of that town perform at third for Chatsworth and they were not disappointed, for Ed­die put up a corking game and made such a hit with the fans that some of them want him for the home club.

For four itinipgs the teams bat­tled on even terms, the visitors malt ing but one bit in that time. In the j fifth the locals scored what looked I like enougli runs to win. Freehill | started the trouble for himself by

I trying a quick return pitch to Spears and hitting him on the shoulder. I

' Fluegel hit a scorcher over third, but Cooney made a swell stop and a wide j throw, putting tlit? runners on sec­ond and third. Diehl hit to Lamp-j son. whose throw home got away from Brown and two runs scored.

I "Spider" counted on a hit through Lampson and the lead of three runs looked sufficient.

"Chatsworth upset the dope in the! next frame. Little Keegan, who is not as tall as the bat lie swings. [ and opened the round by punching a dou-[ tile into the right field crowd. Flue- gel played Cooney's grounder too long in holding Keegan on
