It is very seldom that we pay much at
tention to reports circulated in reference
to the virtue of a patent med icine, as we
have always considered that reports of this
nature were more or less fictitious and got
ten up for the purpose Of creating demand
from the public. But the publication in
various papers of the wonderful results OBJ
tanned from using that famous remedy st.
Jacobs Oil, and from the fact that it u
remedy for outward application only, led
us to make trials OF it in our own family
One, case Of lumbago Of long standing
which had previously resisted every form
OF treatment, was permanently cured by =
few applications Of the Oil. Another was =
sprained ankle, with severe pain. This
was instantly relieved and permanently
cured in few days by the use of st. Jacobs
Oil, while for severe toothache and neuralgia
it acted almost like magic, so quickly did the
pain depart after the Oil was applied. Our
own experience in using the Oil, as above
indicated, was SO highly satisfactory that
we determined in the interest Of the gen,
eral public to make thorough local inves-
tigation among dealers and others who have
sold and used st. Jacobs Oil. Recognizing
Messrs. Taylor and Co. a. headquarters for
ell proprietary medicines, we called at their
Briggate Store, and on making known the
he stated that their three stores in Leeds
were selling more than thousand bottles
of st. Jacobs Oil every week, and the trade
was constantly increasing-that 1t was the
most popular remedy sold and was highly
spoken of by everyone who used it. The
Manager said he had heard hundreds of
people say they had been permanently cured
of rheumatism. neuralgia, sciatica, and SIM
liar complaints By the use of this famous Oil.

When an "auto" is pushed along

what the near future will bring forth

The New York papers report that

More Of the powder was found in q

and pulverized rock.
The different Health Authorities
seem to have different ways of repress-
ing the sale of bad baking powders.
In England they have prosecuted the
grocers under the general law and
broken up the traffic. In Missouri the
sale of alum baking powder is actually
prohibited by law. In New York they
seize the unwholesome stuff and cast
il into the river, without any discus
sion. The latter way is certainly eff
fective.
The alum baking powders are usual

Consumers can protect themselves
by buying only high-grade baking pow

tion. Do not be tempted by the grocer
to take something else as "just as
good" or "our own brand" for the
trials show that the grocer himself is
often deceived by unscrupulous max.
ers and is selling an alum powder with
out knowing it.
There are several good powders on
the market; let the housekeeper insist

of nitrogen, 80 pounds Of potash and
l2 pounds Of phospheric acid; the
proportions are for each 100 Of nitro
gen, S. of potash and 26 Of phosphor-
ic acid. 1t is true that TO guard
against weed the nitrogen is kept
low in fertilizers, especially as cow
peas are sown on cotton soils as a
soil cover; also that phosphates arc
SO apt to take insolubIe forms in the
soil that in commercial fertilizers,
good practice has sanctioned the use
of quantities in excess of what is
shown to be the actual needs of the
crops. 1t is fair estimate to place
the proportions as follows: Am

wEEDY COTTON FIELDS.
A Mig Crop Of weeds Means . short
age Of Lint In the Dolls of
the COttou Plant.

Cotton weeds on soils heavily
charged with organic matter; weed
ing means simply a heavy production
of leaf but little lint. The blossoms
appear to be sterile, at least they
fail to develop bolls. Upon examina
tion OF the nature of the effects
caused by an excess of any one of
the three essentials of plant food,
ammonia. potash. and phosphoric
acid, we find that an excess of nitro
gen (ammonia) produces just the re-
suits shown by what is called weed
in cotton.
Nitrogen is tho most expensive sim
gle element of plant food, and rarely
exists in the soils in excess of what
IS needed for a full crop, yet weedy
cotton is quite common. As matter
of Fact, the three plant food essen
tials are required by the crop in GER
tain proportions, and If this proper
ton is greatly changed, the effect is
precisely that of an excess Of one
or more ingredients, as the case may
be. For example. ) soil may contain
ammonia, and phosphoric acid for Q
full crop, but only potash sufficient
FOR half crop. In this case the crop
OF weeds, ~ there Is more ammonia
present than potash to go with it. As
Is result, even the half crop IS not OBJ
tanned. as the scanty supply of pot

leaf and stalk. Thus, an improper
combination of crop food may result
In almost . total loss of crop
The exact proportions of plant
food essentials for cotton seems Il
be n matter of some diversity Of
| opinion, there being several fertilizer
combinations which appear to have

analysis of the crop shows about
what actual plant food the crop take.
up. OF course, all the plant food IL

be realized by the crop, as there arr

GOOD SEED FOR THE FARM.



One of the most important things
to consider in the production of sat-
isfactory crops on the farm is the
obtaining of suitable seeds and of the
best varieties for the purpose. If all
other things are properly attended
to and this neglected, inferior results
may be expected.
First, seeds should be adapted to
the locality, climate and soil. All
kinds of crops will not flourish alike
under all conditions orr in all parts
of the United States 1t is always
safest to grow those kinds that are
adopted to any particular location.
as they will usually give the best re-
suits.
1t will do to obtain seeds from
more northern or colder climate, but
it is hardly safe to take them north
from the south, as they will not be
so likely to. mature crop owing to
difference in season and climate.
Seeds in any locality may be great
ly improved by careful selection and
propagation. Particularly is this the
case with corn. A good variety can
be wen kept up in its original charac-
teristics, and even improved in some
respects, as earliness, uniformity,
productiveness, etc., by this careful
attention in selection from year to
year. Valuable varieties are often
obtained in this way, emitting them
| to the designation of pedigree or
Thoroughbred
With the other grains, as wheat,
oats. harley, ETC.. new varieties may
be profitably obtained from time to
time that will possess. important
characteristics, but to keep them
well up in, yield and profitableness, it
win be necessary to pay considerable
attention to selection and proper
preparation. ~
| If these seeds are run through a
good grading and cleaning mill, of
which there are those well adapted to
the purpose, not only can the seeds of
weeds be removed. but also the light
and imperfect grains. that would re-
duce the value of the crop If sown.
Those who have had no experience
can hardly realize the great improve
ment made in crop as a result OF
this asserting and cleaning process.
The growth will be more uniform and
stronger and the grain heavier.
TO have pure, clean seed can hard
lly be second in Importance to its
adaption to the locality for profitable
results.
1t may sometimes be beneficial to
change the seed of the same varieties
lfrom one kind of soil or locality to
another. Particularly is this the case
with potatoes. This crop is perhaps
the most liable to deterioration or
disease, when grown for any length
of time in one locality or on the kinds
of soils, hence the benefit of frequent
changes of seed or of obtaining OF
NEW varieties. For this purpose many
obtain their seed from that famous
potato producing country, Aroostooh
county, Maine.
If possible. or as far as possible,
get clean. pure seeds, true to name,
of all the varieties grown on the
farm. They will cost more, it is true,
but 1t win be much cheaper in the
end.-E. r. Towle, in Farmers Home
