ITS YOUR KIDNEYS.
Don't Mistake the Cause Of Your
Troubles. A Bennington Citizen
Shows How TO Cure Them

Many people never suspect their
kidneys If suffering from lame,
weak or aching back they think that
it is only a muscular weakness; when
urinary trouble sets in they think It
will soon correct itself. And so II is
with all the other symptoms of kidney
disorders. That is just where the
danger lies. You must cure these
troubles or they may lead to diabetes
or Bright's disease. The best remedy
to use is Doan's Kidney Pills. It cures
all ills which are caused by weak or
diseased kidneys. Bennington people
testify to permanent cures.
Harry c. Taylor living in Benning-
ton, VT, says: 81 had dull pains in
the small of my back and a soreness
across my kidney region, especially
severe when / did any STOPPING or

after the crop is removed. Three or

NIT a rainfall of one inch in "a hours
to sink mostly below the evaporating
surface, to be drawn downward later
by gravity and capillary attraction.
with the opening of spring the
warm sun causes very rapid eyapora-
ton. Moisture is rapidly brought up
from below by capillary attraction, the
principle being the same as that which
causes oil to rise through wick when
the wick is lighted. The moisture
will rise much faster in moist soil
than in dry soil, and it will rise faster
when the particles are packed firmly
together than when they are loose;
and it will rise faster when the par
ticles are fine instead of coarse.
"Stubble fields which are to be sum-
mer fallowed should be mulched as
soon as the soil is fit to work in the
spring. If the surface is firm, use
disc. The mulch need not be deep,
but should form a continuous blanket
over the surface. If the surface
breaks up in slices, or Jumps, as 1t
frequently does, the disc should be
followed with spiketooth harrow to
pulverize the Jumps and form more
perfect mulch. While it is vital that
disking begin as soon as the soil is
fit to work, it is a mistake, particularly
with heavy soils, to begin when the
soil Is so moist as to slice up In
cheese-like chunks.
"As fast as the blowing is done the
burrows should be worked down. The
best practice is to follow the pillow as
closely as possible with sub-surface
packer.
Successful dry land tillage does not
call for an increased amount OF labor
so much as for labor to be properly
applied. If two or three extra work
ings of the soil should be called for,
the farmer can determine whether an
increased production, say 10 to 20
bushels per acre, will pay for the extra
work"

COMPARES SOIL TO SPONGE

A proper conservation or moisture
in the semi-arid wheat belts through
an intelligent treatment of the soil
would increase the wheat production
of the Pacific Northwest several mil
lion bushels annually, according to
Professor George Severance, OF the
Washington State College.
To secure the proper degree OF mois-
ture conservation, the soil must be
kept in an absorbant condition. The
supply of humus must be maintained,
for it keeps the soil in a more sponge
like condition. Where wheat is grown
and continually alternated with sum-
mer fallow, the greater part of the
straw being either removed or burned,
the humus supply of the soil is gradu-
ally reduced. The small root system
of the wheat, and the scanty stubble
will not return enough humus to re-
place the amount that decays during
the growth of one crop.
GAS much straw and stubble should
be worked into the soil as possible"
says Professor Severance. "The straw
should not be burned, and the manure
should not be wasted. Scatter the
straw and manure thinly over the
poorer parts of the fields and then
chop them into the soil with disc
harrow.
"The evil results commonly at
tributed to blowing under long straws,
or stubble, arise from the fact that
the straws are plowed under UNI
broken, and form a layer between the
seeded and the moist soil beneath.
This to a considerable extent inter
feres with the capillary connection
with the moist soil beneath. Much OF
the straw will be left sticking out be-
tween the burrows, offering very eff

no longer content to be pioneers in

of convenience and contentment for
ourselves, we want our children to
