ration for whitening, beautifying and
toning the complexion equals a sim

solving 4 ounces of spurmax in 1-2-
pint of either witch hazel or hot
water, then adding 2 teaspoonfuls
glycerine. Where witch hazel is
used, the lotion dries more readily on
the skin.
This splendid lotion does not rub
of or show like powder. and is very
fine for removing that shiny, sallow
look from the skin. It makes the
skin very clear. satiny and beautiful
and is so good that a bottle of it is

pies in order that the greatest terri
tory possible be covered. Each pro-
ject is taken up with the idea that it
will serve as an example to the
nefghboring farmers and illustrate
to them the benefits of drainage.
OF course if a mans outlet is bad,
and the success of the system doubt
full, the fact is stated and the matter
dropped. There is seldom any great
trouble from cases which seem i'm
possible, 1t being the work of the en-
gineers to find solutions for difficult
problems.
The farmer is expected to supply
the engineer with subsistence while
working on his farm; and he is also
expected to supply what unskilled
help is necessary in laying out the
work. One man TO hold the rod is re-
quired practically the entire time dur
ing the survey. and another is need
ed, for a small part of the time to
drive stakes. On larger work where
open bitches are run through woods
the local parties are some times re-
quired to supply axmen. The Fed
eral Government does not undertake
any part of the construction, but Will
sometimes assist local parties by
supplying a little superintendence.
This latter work is done in order that
the carrying out OF the plans by the
contractor be made a certainty.
1t is expected that a drainage law
will be introduced at the next regular
session Of the Maryland Legislature.
Under the provisions of this new law
It Will be possible for the people TO
cooperate to the fullest extent In
digging large outlet bitches. The
land benefited is formed into a drain
age district and the owners elect
three drainage commissioners to rep
resent them. These commissioners
will have power to bond the district
to pay for the work. and will pay for
the work, and will pay the INSTALL
ments of principal on the bonds as
they come due. II is customary to
have the first installment come due
In three years, and the bonds to be
paid up with interest In ten yearly
payments. This will enable the peo-
pie to receive some benefit from the
work before all the installments are
paid. 1t is expected that with the
help Of this law much larger pro.
jects viii be undertaken than have
heretofore attempted, and the extent
of the breeding places of mosquitoes
will be much reduced, resulting IN
increased healthfulness in the localit,
where drainage work is taken up.

Government Considers Drainage
Problems of Delaware Maryland

The United States Department Of
Agriculture has established an office
at Easton, Md, where a drainage en-
gineer is located to look after drain
age problems in Maryland and Della
ware. He will answer questions re-
ceived through the mail regarding
bitches and tile drains. Drainage
plans will be examined, and changes
suggested if required. Requests for
assistance In locating drains on the
ground will be granted as far as pos
sible. In some cases only a prelimi-
nary survey will be made, which will
consist in telling the farmer where to
locate the drains. how big to make
them, and rough estimate Of cost
will be supplied
In other cases. when conditions
warrant it. complete survey will be
made. This Will consist in stalking
out the lines on the ground and set
ting grades with a level. The fall
in the ditch will then be a certainty
If cut to plans. and will not depend
on the grade given the ditch by the
ditcher. A map is made which shows
the location of drains with respect to
fences. roads, and buildings. A copy
Of the map is submitted to the farmer
with the report. The report is writ
ten after the survey is completed and
describes the system of drains in
detail, gives an estimate Of cost, and
table of outs necessary to get the
desired grade.
The Government cannot do a great
deal of stalking out in one locality as

SLEPT SIX WEEKS

When the strange case of the Iowa
woman who had slept constantly for
4S days was reported. many people
who could not sleep at all wished that
they might have a similar experience.
You would be surprised TO know
how many people there are right
around here who hardly ever get
more than two or three hours sleep
at night, owing TO bad health. general
weakness and worn-out condition.
Miss Louisa Ludwig, NGSsrk, N. j.,
who went through all this has written
letter saying:

rundown, with little appetite. and in

Vinol which / had heard was the best

Look Out For Your Cattle II You Let
Them Run In Fields.
When cattle are allowed to run In
stalk fields it frequently happens that
a large per cent die from various
causes. All these troubles are classed
under the one teRm-cornstalk disease.
In some western fields where there
is a second growth of cane stalk late
IN the fall an early frost will at times
develop In the stalk a deadly poison,
hydrocyanic acid, which kills the ami
NAL in a very few minutes after eat
ing 1t, says the Kansas Agricultural
college.
In the last year or two some Of our
state experiment stations have been
investigating several molds which
seem to affect not only cattle. but
horses as well. These molds grow quite
abundantly upon cornstalks, alfalfa
and other forage crops. The death Of
a great number Of animals has been
traced directly to the feeding Of such
affected fodder, hay or corn. These
molds, however, must have a certain
amount Of moisture for their growth,
and it has been shown that when the
feeds have been properly harvested
and sheltered no trouble has resulted.
Only in materials exposed to the
weather, allowing the development of
these lower forms Of plant life, has
serious trouble been found
In the treatment OF these troubles
nothing reliable can be given, as dis.
ease usually comes on without any
warning. and the animal dies suddenly
Much Of the trouble can be avoided
by allowing the animals only a limitet
