PAGE FOUR ACTS SEND HOLSTEINS TO FRANCE Herd of Pure Breds and Grades Pur- chased by French Commission to Be Sent Over. (Prepared by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture.) American dairy cattle are to follow American soldiers to France. One bundred and four Holstein-Friesian cows—42 pure breds and 62 grades— and four pure-bred bulls are to leave this country shortly on a speclally equipped transport. “Passports” have been issued to Havre, France, and from there the cattle will be sent to de- vastated districts where they will do their bit in bringing back health and happiness to the children of those re- gions. The cattle were purchased by the French high commission, and.at the commission’s request dairy spe- clalists of the United States depart- ment of agriculture assisted in select-’ ing the animals. Efforts were made to collect the ani- mals from herds believed to be free from contagious disease, especlially tuberculosis. Of the entire number of cattle se- lected from 42 herds ,a very low per- centage reacted to the tuberculin test. Speclal efforts were made to select only well-grown, large, strong animals, of good conformation, which showed evidences of becoming large milk pro- ducers. In age they varied from two to four and one-half years, so that & long period of usefulness is uhead. All were due to freshen soon after arrival in France, so that milk will be avail- able at once. The animals were shipped from the assembling points by express to New York, where .hey are to be loaded on a speclally equipped transport. To in- sure proper care throughout the ocean voyage, a dalry expert of the United States department of agricul- ture will accompany the shipment. Members of the French high com- mission expressed themselves as be- e s, ___.__M.T e STME S A % N i o Excellent Animals for Dairy Herd. ing well pleased with the cattle se- & lected. It 1s understood that these dalry cows are to help satisfy the ur gent demand for milk from the war- stricken areas.

In dairying, large production and profit go hand in hand. Breeding fur- nishes the most economical way to ob- tain large-production cows.

For eight years, before coming to San Francisco, Mr. Benich was boiler maker for the Union Pacific railroad in Kansas City, Mo. Mr. Benich owns his home in Kansas City, which he states he left sometime ago in search of his he¢alth. i “Duripg the past year and a half,” he' cantinued, “I have simply suf- fered torture with my stomach. My food would sour almost as soon as I had eaten and gas would form and cause such terrible cramping pains in the pit of my stomach that I could hardly stand them. Many a night I haye just rolled and tossed all night long, so racked with pain that I could not sleep. T also suffered a great deal from intestinal trouble. Sometimes 1 was dreadfully consti- vated and at other times . was troubled from just the opposite con- dition. 1 just tried everything that was recommended but couldn’t find anything that would help me. 1 took two special courses of treatment, and event sent to Italy for a medicine a friend of mine clajmed wonders for. [ also tried Hving ot h diet of very light things, but keépt gétting warse. U was losing weight and getting .so nervous I could hardly do my work. At last I became so miserable and jn- sasy about my condition ‘that ‘we packed up and moved here to San Francisco, hoping the change of cli- mate and salt air would do the work that medicine had failed to do. “But everything disappointed me until my wife read in the papers about Tanlac and urged me to try it. Well, I got me a bottle of Tanlac and when 1 finished taking it without feeling any better I just thought, yes, more money thrown away. And then [ decided maybe T hadn’t given it a fair trial so I got the second bottle and my stomach hasn’t given me the teast bit of trouble since I finished taking it. 7 nave taken three bot- tles now and talk about eating; My, I eat like a wolf and never have a sign ‘of *gas nor a pain of any sort and T’ im, always ready with a big appetite’ for {he next meal. I sleep like a log for eight or nine hours every night and wish I had time to sleep more. Tanlac has done me more good than everything else put together and my only regret is that 1 didn’t have it before I left my own home in Kansas City. Tanlac is sold in Bemidji by the City Drug Store. in Kelliher by Mrs. R. Sterling, in Blackduck by French & Moon, and in Baudette by J. Will- iams.
