The Nevada County picayune., 1911-04-07
A FEW WORDS
 FROM I. ]. NEELEY

In going over my territory of Nevada and 1-2 of Hampstead Counties. 1 find the people very anxious to take hold of the Dem- onstration and cooperation work when properly explained to them in their fields.
 1 don't believe in schoolhouse speeches and street corner talks, this is growing old, they are good in their places, but when it comes time to work we as local agents should get out among the farmers and do the work with the farmers. If they are doing the work wrong be able to show them that we are right and get their confidence, prove what we teach by actual work.
 One thing 1 frd is the putting down of Fertilizer. Many are putting from 200 to 300 pounds under their cotton and corn with out mixing with the soil and bed ding on it. Should it be drouth this will burn and besides where the cotton and corn begins to put on fruit, the strength of the ferti- lizer has to some extent exhaust ed and your cotton and corn left with a big stalk full of sap and nothing to carry it on to maturity. We should put two applications on after crop has come up if pos sible at least one application at several workings about 12 inches from the cotton or corn and deep enough to get into the waist dirt and prevent the cultivators from throwing it to the surface, this will carry 1t on to maturity. Thoroughly blow your ground be- fore planting and pulverize it well before planting and then cultivate shallow where weather conditions will allow.
 T. J. Nicely, Local Agent.

CONTEST WARMING UP

On account of not getting the judges ogeth h CT Wednesday night to count the ballots. we are not able to give the result or standing of the candidates in the contest in this issue. However. we will give the count next week and try to give it every week now until the close of the con- test.
 The voting has been pretty heavy since last count and you need not be surprised at the re- suits should there be any change in the standing.
 The contest is just now begin ming to take on new interest and the girls are out after the Piano in dead earnest. This is a beau tiful prize and worthy of the very best efforts of any young lady to get it.

Dust and Busting.

People are slow indeed to recog-
nize how formidable an enemy they
have in dust, especially dust in the
home, which is the one place where
it could and should be treated with
some recognition of its dangerous
power. Outdoors one must encoun-
ter it all the time, willy nilly, but il
has been proved by scientific exper-
iment that at its worst the air out
doors has fewer harmful germs in il
than the air where people are close
ly congregated.
. At the very worst that the biggest
and diriiest cities can do, there IS
such a splendid vastness ABOUT he
great open spaces of voutdoors" that
it may be trusted to dilute danger to
the safety-point. Blu, in most pub
lie places of meeting and in almost
all dwelling houses it is a different
story, and this largely because peo-
pie will not put their minds to the
subject.
Old-fashioned cleaning meant do
the very worst you can to stir up all
the dust you can find, and knock it
about the place. 1t will settle again
shortly, it is true, and some of it in
evitably in your nose and throat, but
never mind. Grandma was a splend-
id housekeeper, and when she swept,
you could not see yourself for dust,
and she lived to be ninety! Perhaps
il she had used a vacuum cleaner
she might be alive yet. But we can
not all have vacuum cleaners even
today, although it looks as if that
good time may be coming.
In the meantime it should be easy
for all to learn and remember that
dust has one great foe that it will
never be able to resist, and that is
moisture. As salt is supposed to be
or The tail OF a bird. so is moisture
on TIE dnst-cloth TO dust. This
moisture may take the form best
suited to the material TO be cleaned
lit may be water sometimes and
oil sometimes, and very little OF
either. Where floors are covered
With stationary carpets, damp saw
dust or tea.leaves or pieces of SC
newspaper should be thrown down
to catch the dust as it is swept up.
Everything that can be carried
out into the air to be swept or shak
en- or beaten should be so carried
Many persons seem to labor unde
delusion that simply hanging thing
up outside and leaving them motion
less is sufficient. They call it "sun
ming" them, and this is very we'll 70
the little way it goes; but unless it i
very windy day, the things go bacl
to the house with the same germs il
them that they took out.

BETTER THAN MEDICINE

The Increase in the Deaths Result
ant from Grip ard Pneumonia is
Most Alarming, and Physicians
Everywhere are Recommending
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey as a
Reliable Cure and Sure Preventive.
Scientists and physicians have
been appalled, at the rapid increase in
the death rate from acute respiratory
diseases, especially III the large cities.
Statistics from cities, large and
small, showing "a steady yearly IN
crease in the prevalence and fatality
of grip and pneumonia, have demand
cd an immediate and sure preventive.
Grip and pneumonia attack the
system quickly and relentlessly.
They are especially dangerous at this
season of the year when exposure to
sudden and severe changes OF wealth
er and atmospheric conditions is fire.

system run down from worry, over
work or exposure.
For more than fifty years Duffy's
Pure Malt Whiskey has been recog-
nizcd as a wonderful remedy in the
prevention of coughs, colds, grip,
pneumonia, and all diseases of the
respiratory organs. Physicians who
stolidly conform to the ethics Of the
profession publicly recommend it
and are prescribing it for their pa
TENTS. 1t is in use in leading hospi-
tails Throughout the country.
The secret of the marvellous &c
cess Of Dutty-s Pure Malt Whlskey
in curing and preventing throat and
lung troubles lies in the fact that it
is the greatest strengthened and
health builder known to medicine,
and it not only checks the ravages OF
the disease itself, but replaces the
weakened, destroyed tissues, helps
the stomach to more perfectly digest
and assimilate food in order that
more, richer and purer blood may
come from it, and regulates and
governs the hearts action, so that
circulation will be strong and pow
erful, carrying health and vigor to
every organ and part of the human
body.

NURSE TELLS OF SKIN CURES

81 have seen the Cnrfcura Remedies
used with best results during the past
twenty years. In my work as a nurse.
many skin disease cases came under
my observation, and In every In
stance, ! always recommended the
Cuticura Remedies as they always
gave entire satisfaction. One case In
particular was that of a lady friend
Of mine who, when a child, was af-
ficted with eczema which covered her
face and hands entirely, breaking out
at intervals with severer torture. She
could not go to school as the disfigure-
ment looked terrible. / told her to get
at once a set of Cuticura Remedies.
After the use of only n set she was
perfectly well.
"A grown lady friend was afflicted
with salt rheum in one of her thumbs,
and she was cured by the Cuticura
Remedies. Still another lady had dry
salt rheum in both palms of her hands
every fall of the year. They used to
be SO painful she could scarcely wet
her hands until she began to use the
Cuticura Remedies which cured her.
/ have also seen them cure children
Of ringworm. The children's faces
would be all circles and rings around
the cheeks, and the neck land after
treatment with the Cuticura Soap ana
GinGacE. thcy mere completely cured.
My husband had rheumatism on his
arm and / used the Cuticura Oint-
ment. 1t made his arm as timber and
nice, whereas it was quite stin before
I began to apply the Ointment.
Last May / had an ingrowing toe
nail which was very painful, as the
side of the nail was edging right
down in the side Of my toe. ! cut
the nail out Of the cavity 1t made, and
Of course applied the Cuticura ONT
ment to the part affected. It soothed
1t and in less than ten nights 1t was
all healed through constant use OF tho
Ointment. Ten days ago I had my
left hand and wrist burned with boil
ing lard, and Cuticura Ointment has
completely cured them. I have Just
recommended the Cuticura Remedies
to another friend, and she Is pleased
with the results and is recovering
nicely. / will gladly furnish the
