Vegetable Compound has done for me
during this trying period. Complete
restoration to health means so much
to me that for the sake of other suffer-
ing women 1 am willing to make my
trouble public so you may publish
this letter. "-MRs. CHAs. BARCLAY,
RED, Graniteville, vt.
No other medicine for woman's ills
has received such widespread and I'M
qualified endorsement. No other med
icine we know of has such a record
Of cures as has Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
For more than 80 years it has been
curing woman's ills such as intlamma-
ton, liberation, fbroid tumors, irreg-
ularities, periodic pains and nervous
prostration, and it is unequalled for
carrying women safely through the
period of change of life.
Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass,
invites all sick women to write
her for advice. Her advice is free,
and always helpful.

DRIVING SMUT FROM WHEAT
Simple and Effective Remedy by the
Use of Formalin is Especially Urged

Simple and Effective Remedy by the
Use of Formalin is Especially Urged
If something is not done to reme-
dy the "smut" or "bunt" in wheat
in this community farmers will ir
time suffer total loss. Seed treat
ment with formalin is the only re-
liable remedy so far discovered.
The Delaware. College Experiment
Station submits this suggestion !:
"Spread the seed on a clean floor or
canvass and sprinkle with a solution
of one pound (pint) of formalin to
fifty gallons of water until thorough
ly moist, but not wet enough to drip.
Stir the seed repeatedly to distribute
the moisture evenly, then shovel in
to pile and cover with sacks or
canvas for two hours. Sacks, drills
or other receptaeles should be disin-
fected with the same solution before
filling with treated seed. One pound
| (pint) formalin when made up with
water will treat 40 to so bushels OF
wheat. Formalin costs so cent to
Is cents per pound" Farmers
should appreciate the Importance Of
using this remedy.
