ECZEMA ITCHED so BADLY
ICOULDN'T STAND IT."

81 suffered with eczema on my neck
for about six months, beginning by lit
tie pimples breaking out. L kept
scratching till the blood came. 1t kept
getting worse, I couldn't sleep nights
any more. 1t kept itching for about a
month, then / went to a doctor and
get some liquid TO take. 1t seemed
as if l was going to get better. The
itching stopped for about three days,
but when it started again, was even
worse than before. The eczema itched
so badly / couldn't stand it any more.
81 went TO a doctor and he gave me
some medicine, but didn't do any good.
We have been having Cuticura Rem
edies in the house, SO ] decided to try
them. / had been using Cuticura
Soap, so / got me box of Cuticura
Ointment, and washed off the affected
part with Cuticura Soap three times a
day. and then put the Cuticura Oint-
ment on. The first day put 1t on, 1t
relieved me of itching so l could sleep
all that night 1t took about a week,
then / could see the scab come off. /
kept the treatment up for three weeks,
and my eczema was cured.
MY brother got his face burned
with gun-powder and he used Cutictira
Soap and. Ointment. The people all
thought he would have scars. but you
can't see that he ever had his face
burned 1t was simply awful to look
at before the Cuticura Remedies

In connection with the regular In
struction given by Purdue university
to the dairy farm students, course
in stock judging is given. Two after
Moons each week are employed giving
the students practical experience Sc
lecting individuals from certain
classes of the university herd. This
course, which Is only eight weeks in
length. was nevertheless found to be
very valuable by those that selected
this course Of study.
During the past winter twenty
young men from this and other states
have been enrolled at Purdue univer-
sity as regular winter course stu
dents specializing along dairy lines.
OF this number nine selected the
farm dairy work, which includes spe-
cial instruction along the lines OF
feeds and feeding, breeds and breed
ing, and special farm management. 1t
was In connection with the study of
breeds that the stock judging work
was given.
In giving this course It was assumed
that all of the students were inexperi-
enced in the use OF the score card
as means In studying dairy type.
With this In mind course was ar
ranged which included a cow demon
stration, score card work and COM
parative placings. The cow demon
stration was given in order that the
men might have an understanding In
regard to proper methods Of judging
cows. breed characteristics and gen.
eral showing methods. When q
was secured they were given score
cards on which they placed their opin-
ion, as expressed in per cent. of the
various individuals in the ring. The
score card practice gave them addi-
tional information along the line of
important points In cow judging, so
they were soon capable of judging by
comparison, being required to give
both oral and written reasons to sub
stantiate their placings. The work OF
comparing individuals was considered
by far the most important branch OF
the work, so the major part of the
time was used in this way
In order that they might have q
general understanding in regard tc
the various classes OF dairy stock q
large variety OF classes were passed
upon. The Purdue university herd Is
composed mostly of Jerseys; however
sufficient numbers of Holsteins anC
Ayrshires are owned to insure an un
derstanding in regard to breed type
The following are a few OF the classe:

score fl Judging three rings each of
cattle. horses. sheep and hogs
The contest this year was very
close and some exceptionally high
scores were made. The class as
a whole has been remarkably good,
and the work In judging throughout
the entire course has been of a very
high quality. The men have shown
an especial aptitude In choosing win
ming animals from the beginning, Tbut
the final scores In the contest have
been source OF extreme qualification
10 members of the animal husbandry
faculty.
The classes of animals in each ring
were selected so as to test the stu
dents ability to pass upon different
kinds of animals successfully. The
scope of the work was broad. so as TO
ascertain the students fitness for doing
all kinds OF stock Judging work. The
three rings OF cattle were: One class
Of fat steers; one class OF aged breed
ing COWS: and one class of heifers. The
sheep were: One class fat lambs; one
class Shropshire breeding ewes: one
class Rambouiliet breeding ewes. The
hogs were: One class Poland China
barrows; one class Poland China sows,
and one class Berkshire gifts. The
horse judging work was done by J.
Crouch and Sons barns. where the
students passed upon: One class Per.
cheron gelding: one class stallioas,
and one class Belgian mares.
The trophy was awarded TO r. w.
I.antz OF New Palestine. Ind. Mr..
Lantz won the trophy en- a score OF
1,1s0 points out of a possible 1.20G. He
has done good work throughout the
course and we'll deserves the honor he
has won. The second place was won
by Ralph Test on a score OF 1,150.
while three men. r. W. Carter C. III.
Lisman and c. +. Nesbitt tied for third
place on score OF l.135. The char
acter OF the work will no doubt be
source OF inspiration TO future classes
and Will give a decided impetus for
better stock throughout the state.

at a recent dinner at Vancouver Bar
racks, discussing popular novel OF
little worth, General Maus said:
1.-THE pathos of the book is really
bathos. 1t reminds me of private S
widow. The good woman was about
to sell her household furniture, her
rugs, plated ware and what not. AS
she was going over these articles her
eyes filed with tears, a host Of mem
