'WHY SHOULD | USE
CUTICURA SOAP?

There is nothing the matter with
my skin, and thought Cuticura Soap
was only for skin troubles" True, it
is for skin troubles, but it's great mis-
sion is to prevent skin troubles. For
more than generation its delicate
emollient and prophylactic properties
have rendered 1t the standard for this
purpose, while its extreme purity and
refreshing fragrance give to it all the
advantages of the best of toilet soaps.
1t is also invaluable in keeping the
hands soft and white, the hair live
and glossy, and the scalp free from
dandruff and irritation.
While its first cost is a few cents
more than that of ordinary toilet
soaps, it is prepared with such care
and of such materials, that it wears
to wafer, often outlasting several
cakes of other soap, and making its
use, in practice. most economical.
Cuticura Soap is sold by druggists and
dealers everywhere, but the truth of
these claims may be demonstrated
without cost by sending to "Cuticura,"

are SO glad to be assured of dependable Vese'

much as the same stuff would bring at retall
in the same city.
An interesting .side line" that has developed
in connection with twentieth century trucking
is the canning and preserving industry. we
see this tendency exemplifed in two ways.
First there is a disposition on the part OF
the big canning firms that put up tomatoes,
corn etc, to raise their own vegetables and
in not few instances in late years the can
ming factories have been moved Ito the fields
to be near the source of supply. Secondly,
and more significant, is the disposition of
truckers to put up In glass or tins their sur
plus products and to market them direct. The
farmers wife and daughters, from time out OF
mind, have been stocking the home larder
for winter use in this manner, but latterly
they have taken to picking and preserving
for the great outside public as we'll In many
instances where the responsibilities have be-
come too much for the women folk OH the
truck farm outside help is called in-school
girls eager to earn vacation money; summer
boarders who willing thus to pay their
way; and factory folk from the neighboring
towns who are out of work temporarily, ow-
ing to the summer "shut downs"
Time was when the average farmers wife
was wont to declare that it did not pay to
can or preserve for the market, however much
pride she might take in such work for the
household and however much qualification she
might feel when her jams and stewed fruits
took the prizes at the county fair. All this
stigma of unproftableness has passed, how

DEATH BEFORE 100

Prof. Munyon Says Ignorance

"Death before 100 years of ege has

who dies at an earlier age is simply igno-

Such was the original and rather
startling statement made by Professor
James M. Munyon, the famous Philadel-
phia health authority, who is establish
ing health headquarters in all the large
cities of the world for the purpose of get

of converts.
Professor Munyon is a living embodi-

clares is the normal one. He said:

this city alone.

rgating system which will carry off surplus
water In the case of torrential showers and
will, on the other hand, enable him to water
his gardens when rain famine comes. He
will have more or less pretentious green
houses that will enable him to raise early
vegetables and to give his garden stuff an
early start under glass. And he may even
have facilities for raising some products in
shade or partial shade And so there might
be continued almost indefinitely the enumera-
ton of the innovations that have bettered
modern trucking conditions, all the way up to
the facilities on those large truck farms
where we find miniature or narrow gauge
railways traversing the trucking area and af-
fording the means of transferring the vege-
tables, berries. etc.. in one handling from the
pickers to the boats or railroad cars that are
to convey them to market
A notable characteristic of modern methods
of trucking is the extent to which specialize
ton is being practiced. We still have, of
course, farms by the thousand where every
thing from onions to pumpkins are raised but
we also find, to an increasing extent, progress

tivated and the celery farms" in Michigan
and elsewhere that concentrate on this capri
cious product and the watermelon patches"
of the southland so on through long list
AS sequel to this era of specialization has
come the practice of many truckers to dispose
of their products direct to the consumers. OF
course this means added profits, for not only
does it cut out the middleman's margin but in
many instances the trucker finds discriminate
ing city folks willing to pay him more than
the prevailing retail price in order to obtain
products of exceptional quality and which they
can depend upon being fresh. Some truckers

gardening would be more attractive and popular.
But nature simply will not do lick until per-
son gets the ground ready and lays it off in plats
and drills and rows and beds and things and
buys the seeds and plants them.
After all that has been accomplished at great
labor and expense nature takes hold and shoves
the sprouts up out of the soil; but no more, for
when the plants have got start once they will
grow themselves. But they won't take care OF
themselves, and nature doesn't, the man is
compelled to look after them. He has to look
after them all the time, too, because If he isn't
