An article in Country Life in
America regards lime as a help in
maintaining fertility of the soil and
as an important factor in agriculture
Some soils would be benefited more
by the application of one ton of lime
per acre, the cost ranging from 81 to
SIS, than by the application of ten
tons of commercial fertilizers on the
same area, costing about 5000.

DRUG HABITS
Easily FORMED But Hard to Break.

A man down in old Virginia tells of
his experience which points a simple
and effective way out. He says:
about Is years ago my wife, through
using coffee and laudanum for relief
of neuralgia, became addicted to the
habits, continuing until she had about
destroyed stomach, nerves and mind.
This brought on periods of dementia
lasting from one to two weeks, growing
steadily worse until the Bird Of August
last year our family physician called in
consultation another doctor, who had
been Resident Physician at our State
Insane Asylum.
They decided the only hope was to
place her in sanitarium, otherwise she
would be hopelessly insane before the
year was out On investigation we found
the charges for such patient beyond
our means so it was necessary to face
the worst at home.
Upon the advice of a friend she
stopped the use of coffee, Of which she
was very fond, and began the use of
Postum Food Coffee as remedy for
the constipation which accompanied the
attacks The result was more than we
expected It not only relieved the con-
stipation greatly but aided her to break
the laudanum habit for when she found
herself possessed of the desire to take
something a cup OF strong Postum
would allay the desire and soothe and
refresh her
This led to the regular use of Pos
tum, and Grape-Nuts that also seemed
to nourish and strengthen the over
wrought nerves, she steadily got better
and better and today, instead of being
in the insane asylum she is still with US
in her own home, sounder in mind and
body than for several years past. The
attacks of dementia have steadily grown
milder and less frequent until now we
have every reason TO believe that she
will soon be fully restored-sound in
mind and body.
It know this has been accomplished
entirely by the aid of Postum and
Grape-Nuts, for not since that consulta-
ton over q year ago has she taken q
particle of medicine of any sort.
I'm writing this my greatest desire
is to bring the use of your products to
the notice Of some other unfortunate,
trembling upon the brink Of that most
terrible Of all calamities, Insanity. and I
thoroughly believe and know that leav-
ing off coffee and other drugs and TAX
ing good food and drink is the surest
means by which it can be averted.
