ALMOST A SOLID SORE.
Skin Disease from Birth-Fortuns
Spent on Her Without Benefit
Cured Her with Cuticura.

Il have a cousin in Rockingham Co.
who once had a skin disease from her
birth until she was six years Of age.
Her father had spent a fortune on her
to get her cured and none of the treat
ments did her any good. Old DR.. -
suggested that he try the Cuticura
Remedies which he did. When he COM
menced to use it the child was almost
solid scab. He had used it about two
months and the child was well. I
could hardly believe she was the same
child. Her skin was as soft as a baby's
without scar on it. I have not seen
her in seventeen years, 1ut I have
heard from her and the last time
heard she was well. Mrs. w. P. Ingle,

DODDER IN CLOVER A PEST
WHICH IS TO BE DREADED
The Farmer Should Look When Purchasing
Seed-By d. Finlayson, f. I. s..

There is practically no other i'm.
purity found in any of our cultivated
c:overs that occasions the same fear
as that which accompanies the pres
ence Of the much-dreaded pest, dod-
der. Glover dodder is leafless para
site plant, deriving all the nourish-
ment necessary for it's growth from
the clover stem round which it clings
and turns. The seeds of dodder germ
mate IN the soil in the ordinary way.
giving rise to slender, leafless,
thread-!ike shoot. which rotates round
and round. Should the shoot fail to
reach or touch a clover plant, it (the
dodder) quickly withers and dies;
should it succeed in gaining hold of
a clover plant, the twining round the
stem Immediately begins, and at the
points of close attachment roots or
suckers penetrate the epidermis and
push their way into the conducting
tissues of the plant, as may be seen
in the magnified section of the clover
stem encircled by dodder. The free
end of the dodder increases in length,
embraces other branches and extends
to adjoining clover plants, and thus
the work of stangulatien, sure and
deadly, rapidly goes on. In examin-
ing samples of clover seed for dodder
even an experienced observer may be
deceived. The seeds are grey or
light brown in color, with a slightly
pitted surface, much smaller in size
than the clover. In many instances
particles of dried soil, rounded by at
triton and the movement of the seed
in handling, so closely resemble the
seeds Of dodder that at first
glance one is filled with dismay,
and it is only on pressing the
suspected dodder seed with knife
blade or spatula, when it crumbles
into dust, that the examiner is
treasured as to the purity of the
sample. The farmer may be perfectly
satisfied with the appearance of the
clover seed he intends purchasing, al
so with the guarantee of freedom from
weeds, but there is still one thing of
vital importance. Are the seeds alive?
