To have the pains and aches of bad

sonburg, residing On the HarriSOnburg
and Warm Springs Turnpike, one mile
west of Harrisonburg, says: kidney
troubles, from which had suffered
for long time, brought on not only
severe backache, but the most intense
headaches. Sometimes these were so
severe that l would be almost blind
for a short time. The kidney secre
tions were also discOlored and irregu

chanced to notice the testimonials in
our newspapers speaking in the high

evil of foul stomach is not the bad taste in
the mouth and the foul breath caused by it,
but the corruption of the pure current of the

throughout the body. DR.. Pierce's Golden

Cotton Seed Meal as a Fertilizer

The light fertilizing and feedin

parent that its utilization is a matte
, OF great concern to all southern farm
, ers, for every time enough seed is sol
from the farm to make the equivalen
of a ton of cotton seed meal. from
500 90 to $25 90 worth of fertilizer i
taken away, which must be replaced il
some form. If the seed were exchapg
ed for the meal and fed on the farm
there is no reason why the farmer
should not realize from 500 90 to $25 OF
a ton for the meal as foOdstuff aDC
from $500 to $4,000 ton as fertil
izer, making it wo, tn to him $50 90 g
ton and giving him two profits the
purchase of a single foodstuff.
| A good many persons seem to have
the Idea that if cotton seed meal is first
fed to live stock only comparatively
small amount of the mineral constl-
tuents will be available as plant food.
This is an erroneous Idea, for from 96
to SO per cent. of the mineral matter
will be voided in the case of beef cat :
tie, and from 10 to so per cent. in the
case of dairy COWS. Therefore, if a
sufficient amount of desirable absorb
ents is used in the stable so that the
urine will be completely absorbed and
preserved and the manure thus obtain.
ed applied directly to the land and
plowed under that only comparative.
ly small amount of the fertiIizing value
of the meal will be lost.
Cotton seed meal furnishes organic
nitrogen in the cheapest. form obtain
able from commercial standpoint.
The available nitrogen in nitrate of
soda costs anywhere from Is to l6 cents
per pound. and it must also be used
under special conditions and can not be
mixed With phOsphates and potash S
i'll the case of cotton seed 'lileal. Nj
trate of soda can only be applied to
growing crops, whereas, the nitrogen
in cotton seed meal can be applied in
the fall if desirable and along with the
phosphates and potash, aud as it is not
readily leached away, it becomes avail
able as the plant needs it. A ton of
cotton seed meal contains about 134
pounds of nitrogen or $50 pounds of
ammonia, which at IL cents pound
would be worth $19 90; 56 pounds of
acid, at cents which would |
be worth $3.50; and SO pounds of pot
ash. at cents, which would be worth
$1.94. or total of $23. .94 per ton.
There is no other concentrate on the |
market which approaches cotton seed
meal in fertlllzing value.
Southern lands cannot be expected |
TO increase in fertility. much less main
tain their present condition, unless
there is returned to them in commercial |
,orm the equivalent OF the fertilizer re.
moved by farm crops. One of the easi :
est solutions of this problem lies in

seed meal as foodstuff and as the |
basis of commercial fertilizers to be |
