PITIFUL SIGHT WITH ECZEMA

"A few days after birth we noticed
an infiamed spot on our baby's hip
which soon began spreading until
baby was completely covered even in
his eyes, ears and scalp. For eight
weeks he was bandaged from head to
foot. He could not have q stitch Of
clothing on. Our regular physician
pronounced 1t chronic eczema. He Is
very able physician and ranks with
the best in this locality, nevertheless.
the disease began spreading until
baby was completely covered. He
was losing flesh so rapidly that we be-
came alarmed and decided to try Cuti-
cuTa Soap and Ointment
Not until commenced using Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment could we tell
what he looked like. as we dared not
wash him, and had been putting one
application after another on him. On
removing the scale from his head the
hail came OF. and left him entirely
bald, but sine. we have bean using
Cuticura Soap And Ointment he has
as much hair as ever. Four weeks
after we began to use the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment he was entirely
cured. | don't believe anyone could
have eczema worse than our baby.
Before we used the Cuticura Rem
edies we could hardly look at him, he
was such pitiful sight. He would
fuss until l would treat him, they
semed tc relieve him SO much. Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment stand by
themselves and the result they quick
ly and surely bring is their own rec
ommendation." (Signed) Mrs. T. B,
Rosser, Mil Hall, Pa, Feb 20, 1911.
Although Cuticura Soap and Oint
ment SIRE sold by druggists and deal
ers everywhere, sample of each
with S2-page book, will be mailed free

GOOD OATS FOR DRY FARMING

To Make Fruit Jar Rubbers Last.

TO have fruit jar rubbers last, keep
them well covered In a Jar full of -four
until used, and as soon as removed
from empty Jars. One can then afford
a good quality OF rubbers, as kept
thus they will safely last several sea-
sons. When there is doubt OF old
rubbers, they may often be made to
exc out one more season by using two
of the rubbers to each jar and screw
ing down tight. Always stand newly
filed jars upside down until cool, to
test the tops and ers.-Designer

Humus in Orchard Soil.

The humus loosens the soil particles
which in turn increases its water ca
pacity. The humus is essential for
the growth of the beneficial bacteria
in the soil. One OF the most important
parts that a cover crop plays is its
ability to change chemically the COM
pounds OF the soil and put them In an
available form for the trees. The
clover crop gathers, digests and turns
over to the trees the plant food which
1t has stored.
