PHYSICIAN SAID ECZEMA
CAME FROM TEETHING

when my little girl was about eight
months old, she was taken with very
irritating breaking out, which came on
her face, neck and back. When she
first came down with it, it came in
little watery-like testers under her
eyes, and on her chin, then after few
days it would dry down in scaly, white
scabs. In the daytime she was quite
worrysome and would dig and scratch
her face nearly all the time.
II consulted our physician and
found she was suffering from eczema,
which he said came from her teething.
I used the ointment he gave me and
without any relief at all. Then I
wrote for book on Cuticura, and .pur-
chased some Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment at the drug store. did as I
found directions in the Cuticura Book
let, and when she was one year old,
she was entirely cured. Now she is
three years and four months, and she
has never been troubled with eczema
since she was cured by the Cuti-
cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment.

KEEPING BULBS OVER WINTER
To Grow Well Following Spring When
They Are Planted They Must Be
Given Special Care.

For bulbs to keep we'll over winter
and grow well the following spring OF
summer when they are planted they
must have special care before storing.
First, as soon as the stalks have been
killed by frost cut them off a few inch
es above the ground The bulbs or
tubers will have matured before this
time and they cannot secure more
nourlshment from the frosted and dead
stems. Injury may result If the frost
ed stems are allowed to remain. Let
the bulbs and tubers remain in the
soil till late in the fall or till just be-
fore the ground begins to freeze hard.
They will keep better in their natural
home in the soil, under normal mois-
ture conditions, than they will out Of
the soil. If the soil becomes vefy wet
after the first frosts, then it will be
better to dig them Immediately.
Select bright, clear weather for dig
ging the bulbs. Begin the work In the
morning after the dew is off the dead
grass. Lift the clump or single bulb
with garden spade, being careful not
to injure any Of the underground
parts, shake off any excess of adher-
ing soil and lay the tubers and bulbs
on the dry ground for summing If the
ground is wet or very damp place dry
straw or leaves under them so that
they will dry on all sides. At night
protect them with straw, canvas or
some covering to keep out dampness
and prevent possible freezing Unc0v-
er them each morning for exposure to
air and sun and let them cure in this
manner from three to five days. BE
ing on them is perfectly dry before
they are placed in storage.

TIME FOR PICKING APPLES
Red Variety Is Often Left for Some
Time to Allow Them to Put
on More Color.

The time for picking red apples Is
commonly gagged by their color, and
that of yellow apples by the color of
the seeds. The latter is the only re-
liable test of ripeness, for an apple
picked just as the seeds are turned
light brown, and before they become
dark around the edges, will be found
to have not only full flavor but the
best keeping quality. But red apples
are often left for some time after the
seeds indicate maturity to allow them
to put on more color, which they do
rapidly under the influence of the
bright days and cool nights Of au-
tumn.
Growers should bear In mind, how
ever, that to defer picking after the
seeds indicate ripeness, invites water
core and shortens the life Of the fruit
in storage, often to a serious extent
with L. mid-winter varieties.

The Brown Siuu,

The little brown slug that defoliates
the pear, plum and cherry trees during
the summer season is one Of the
easiest of our insects to control. No
one need allow this insect to do any
serious harm to his trees, If he will
thoroughly use the remedy here given.
Steep two ounces of fresh white helle-
bore in one gallon Of water, and use
as a spray when the slugs are first
seen. Stir the mixture often; or,
better yet, have an agitator attach
ment on the pump. Sometimes there
is a second brood Of the slugs, neces-
stating a second spraying.

flowers, then use large pot. If you
want a dwarf plant, use a small pot.
The size of the plant and the flowers
are largely governed by the size of the
pot. When plant fails to develop
properly, it is mostly because the soil
is sour or unfit for the growth and
