Anty Drudge Gives More Reasons

Little Eaaaice-"Boo Hoo! I had pretty pink frock
and mama cooked it and the pink all came OUT
Mothe,-'I didn't know the color would fade or l
shouldn't have boiled it along with the other
clothes"
Anty Drudge Anything will fade, my dear if it's
boiled long enough. Boiling weakens the fabric and
dssoves the dye The best way is not to boil your
clothes, but to wash them with -Naptha in cool
or lukewarm water. Fels-Naptha sets the colors
instead of fading them, besides making the clothes
wear longer. 1t also you time, work, bother
and money
There are cheaper laundry soaps than
Fels-Naptha but no other so economical.
Sounds odd, doesn't it2
But it's true.
Fels-Naptha is more economical be-
cause it saves time, saves work, saves the
cost of fuel and makes your clothes wear
twice as long.
Fels-Naptha cleans your clothes in
cool or lukewarm water in summer or
winter without boiling or hot water to
weaken their fabric, and without hard
rubbing to wear them into holes.
It takes half as long and requires
much less work than the old way.
Try it next washday.
See how white, and clean, and sweet
Fels-Naptha makes your clothes
Follow carefully the directions on the Z

Half Rate for Stock Keepers.

G. M. Fleischer, Secretary Of Ma
tional Association of Live Stock
Breeders, Ra1sers and Shippers, SO
Randolph Street, Chicago, ILL.,, has
taken up the subject with the various
traffic associations throughout the
country, also all railroad companies,
of the granting of fiat rate for all
exhibitors of live stock at State and
Interstate Fairs and Live Stock Shows.
At the same time the question of at
PENDANTS for same will be considered
and in the cases of states south of the
Ohio River special stress will be laid
upon the subject of hauling one or
more attendants free with stock, as
to the abolishing of extra rate on
special size cars, and the extra rate
on speed horses, etc.
This subject is one of vital import
ance to the entire agricultural and
livestock industry of the country at
large and means that il the same is
established that the number OF ex
hIbitors will be increased, which will
also mean largely increased attend
ance at all fairs and shows. Mr..
Fleischer states that he has the
hearty cooperation of all secretaries
of fairs and shows and a very large
majority of all the secretaries of the
numerous Live Stock Associations
throughout the country. He is pre-
pairing a table of statistics showing
the enormous interest involved and
will submit these facts and figures to

Valuable Book for the Young
Housewife.

"1he pie that Mother made" How
many of us have said that and laugh
ed at some ones expense when the
crust was heavy or the ''stuffins" not
cooked. The young housewife looks
tearfully at the bread that won't raise
or the biscuits that are so heavy and
wonders what the lord of the manor"
will say when he sits down to an in
complete meal.
Eating ranks first among the indis-
pensible daily occurrences and the Wit
al necessity for properly prepared
foods is unquestionable. Everyone
would rather pay the butcher than
the doctor. Enough money is spent
each year curing indigestion and dys-
pepsia to support innumerable fami-
lies, and the real reason for this is
the large amount of improper cook
ing.
A valuable little book called 1.-THE
Euterprising Housekeeper has prov

of housekeepers who have had to con-
tend with the unexpected visitor, the

little things that tend to make her

The Ranch is in receipt of some fine
testimonials of the ellison gasolene
engines and harvesting machinery.
The engines are made in IA sizes and
seem to have solved most of the
troubles of the gasolene engine. They
are making binder attachment
which should be investigated. We
print two of the many testimonials.

Fertilizer and HunuS

and best wishes for the American
Farmer. To better his condition, is
my hearts desire at this present time
of high living and high prices. One
of the most important things be needs
to consider is fertilizers and especially
commercial fertilizers.
For the scrupulous advertiser, moth
ing but respect For the unscrupu
lous, hydrated lime faker, [ have
nothing but contempt. The super
phosphate for this and super phosphate
for that, is a man you want to let
severely alone. What is super phos-
phate? 1t is fertilizer prepared by
treating ground bone or phosphate
with sulphuric acid, whereby a por
ton of the phosphoric acid becomes
soluble in water, therefore sulphuric
acid combined with bone makes phos-
phoric acid, soluble salt, one equiv
alent OF phoshoric acid, and one of
lime and ten of water. One hundred
pounds of this to @. S. which means
filler. If you have power sprays use
water, if not, use dirt or chat to make
the desired amount and SOW bv hand.
That is your super phosphate.
Now you have got sulphate of lime,
land plaster, or ground gypsum. The
necessary amount is from Is to 80
pounds to acre. Sow about the mid
die of June to obtain best results. For
plants and vegetables sprinkle IN rows,
for flowers dust plants and sprinkle
ground also. This is super phosphate.
CaI Donate of lime, commonly known
as lime stone, is not sulphate of lime.
1t is very valuable as a fertilizer in
moderation. 1t is sweetener of sour
lands, or digester Of other elements
in the soil of which we have an
abundance in this sound country.
one to $50 pounds per acre.
In my explanation | expect horde
of criticism We have an abundance of
potash, crude magnesia, nitrate OF
soda or salt petre. The salal brush is
very strong in potash when burned.
Nitrate of soda or salt petre is vege-
table matter leached from the ground.
There is only one place In the United
States where it is obtained In CONNER
cial quantities and that is i'll north
ern Georgia in a cave. In Peru aud
Chill there is vast areas where nature
has deposited it and where 1t is col
lected and shipped to markets OF the
world. Therefore we do not need pot
ash or nitrate of soda, except on old
worn out land. We do not need sui
phate of lime or land plaster, or car
Donate of lime to neutralize the acid
in the soil.
Now Just word about humus.
Turnips, rape, kale, beets, peas, soy
beans, vetch, buckwheat, etc. Sow in
springtime pillow under, SOW in sum-
mer time, pillow under, SOW in fall
and pillow under in spring. Have fat
cattle, sheep and hogs. Sow buck
wheat last of July never mind the
rain. Tie it up and hang it in the
barn, have fat chickens all winter.
At this writing you can see buckwheat
hanging in my barn, taken in out OF
the rain, just as nice as ever was
grown.
