Who Has a Silo
Doesn't Need Worry about
The Demons of the Swamp
are mosquitoes. As they sting they
put deadly malaria germs in the
! blood. Then follow the icy chills and
the fires of fever. The appetite flies
and the strength fails; alto malaria
often paves the way for deadly ty-
phoid. But Electric Bitters kill and
cast out the malaria germs from the
blood; give you a fine appetite and
renew your strength. “After long
suffering,” wrote Wm. Fretwell of
Lucama, N. C., “three bottles drove
all the malaria from my system, and
I’ve hail good health ever since.”
Best for all stomach, liver and kid-
ney ills. 50c at Corner Pharmacy.
a short hay crop—a few acres planted
t6 fodder corn will turn the trick.
Ask your neighbors who have one and
then come in and let us show you the
kind of silo stock we handle. We be-
lieve it is the best made and most du-
rable you can find anywhere for the
money.
