WHY sALvES FAIL
TO CURE ECZEMf
They Clog the Pores-Only Liquid
Can Reach the Inner Skin.

Since the oId-fashioned theory of
curing eczema through the blood
has been given up by scientists,
many different salves have been
tried for skin diseases. But IT has
been found that these salves only
clog the pores and can not penetrate
to the inner skin below the epider-
mis- where the eczema germs are
lodged.
This-the qualify of penetrating
probably explains the tremendous
success of the only standard hquid
eczema cure, oil of wintergrccn as
compounded in d. d. d. Prescrip-
ton. After ten years of cure after
cure. the worlds leading skin spe-
cialists have accepted this as the
true eczema cure.
We ourselves do not hesitate to
recommend d. d. d. Prescription at

those who have never tried the pre-
scription, we have arranged with the
d. d. D. Laboratories of Chicago
for a special large trial bottle at 20

Scholarships in the Cannon City
high school are awarded by vote of
the faculty. In making such awards
the instructors take into considera-
ton several things, scholarship, gen.
eral qualities of leadership, the pos
sibility of the use of the scholarship
and the pupils attitude toward the
school offering the scholarship.
There are always number OF
very deserving pupils in every class
for whom no scholarship can be pro-
vided and some must always be left
without such gifts for the very rea-
son that the gifts are not ample

should be given scholarships, than
there are scholarships to be given.

TnLAGE VERSUS IRRIGATION

The lavish use of water is the di-
rect cause of many serious irriga-
ton difficulties. In fact, some of the
most profitable and highly developed
irrigation farming in this country
owes its existence and prosperity to
scarcity of water supply. So long
as farmer has an abundance of wa
ter he almost invariably yields to the
temptation to use II freely. even
though he gets an increase in re-
turns as a result Where crop pro-
duction is dependent on rainfall and
particularly when the rainfall is
barely sufficient. farmers soon learn
the value of careful and thorough
tillage both in preparing the land for
a crop and later whenever intertili-
age is possible.
But the irrigation farmer with an
adequate water supply is slow to ap-
preciate the fact that thorough till
age methods abundantly repay their
cost In our new regions particular
ly the tendency 10 neglect tilIage is
pronounced. Weeds are usually not
abundant, and one OF the most OBJ
vious reasons for good tiilage is
lacking The fact remains however
that in irrigation farming good
tiilage pays whether the water sup
ply is abundant or scanty. Excess
sive irrigation teaches the soil or
fills 1t with water to the exclusion
of air and consequently interferes
with the activities OF the micro-or-
ganisms upon which crop plants de-
pend for their food supply.
Good ullage produces opposite re-
suits. A wet soil remains cold. while
a well-tilied soil warns up quickly
and favors plant growth. It is not
sufficient TO keep down the weeds by
cultivation. With inter,illed crops
cultivation should follow every ir-
igation and the land should be ir-
rigated no more frequently than ia
absolutely necessary. This much is
true even with abundant irrigation
water. When the water is scanty
there is the added advantage that 1t
can be made vastly more effective II
supplemented by ullage.
AS a people we have much to
learn in the way of water economy.
With proper use the irrigation sup
ply of the great majority OF our ir-
rigation districts could be used for
much larger areas than IT covers at
present. A more judicious use OF the
supply would also in many cases re-
suit In larger yields to the acre
and would permit the use OF large
areas now kept too wet for crop pro-
ductlon through the excessive use of
water on adjacent land. or course
no one who has a water right Will
part with any OF 1t without a big
compensation and this may be done
in time but as II is we have splashed
all around altogether too much and
have wasted our water in riotious
irrigation.
