A Painful Accident.

Darlington Republican Journal
John Tregonning of South Wayne,
while putting a pump in position on a
farm near that village on last Friday,
met with very painful accident. The
jack holding the heavy pipe broke and
struck him with sufficient force to
break his breastbone. A physician was
called who rendered the necessary
medical aid and he is now getting
along as well as can be expected.

HOMEMADE SOLUTION
A Farmer Can Greatly Reduce the
Cost of Spraying BY Making
His Lime-Sulphur Solution
at His Farm.

This is the time OF year when the
fruit grower should be making ar
rangements to secure his spray mate
rial for the coming season. To control
the San Jose scale he must spray thor
oughly before the buds open. Lime
sulphur is the most common and PROB
ably one of the most effective rene
dies. Two pertinent questions which
occur to the farmer at this time are
where can he purchase his spray ma
terials and how much ought he to pay?
Several very good commercial
brands of lime-sulphur may be pur'
chased by the barrel at prices ranging
from eight to twelve dollars a barrel
To reduce the cost OF spraying the
farmer can manufacture a lime-sul-
phur solution at home just as good in
every respect as the commercial prod
uct. The cost of this homemade So
luton will not exceed $3.50 a barrel
for actual cost OF materials. CONNER
cial sulphur -four may be purchased
for $3.50 to s1.60 per 100 pounds, F. o.

been one of the busiest departments
in the University during the week OF
February 18th to 18th. The Short
Course, attended by women from all
parts of the state. has been so popu-
lar that the laboratory scarcely &C
commodated the class. The work Of
fered consisted OF two series OF les
sons, a practice class every day In the
week, from 9 to II o'clock, In which
the women actually prepared dishes,
and demonstration class, from 2 to 4

pared dishes. A similar course will
be given next winter.

other books on insects.
This is a book of seven hundred
pages. and contains hundreds OF Illus
trations showing insects, their diner
ent stages Of existence and their meth
DDS OF destroying plants. A full de
scription is given Of each insect, ano
farm methods are clearly stated by
which insects can be controlled or de

When we realize that over one Dill

we appreciate the fact that a book Of

Guard Your Children
Against Bowel Trouble

Many children at an early age
become constipated, and frequently
serious consequences result. Not
being able to realize his own con-
dition, a child's bowels should be
constantly watched, and a gentle
laxative given when necessary.
DR.. Miles Laxative Tablets are
especially we'll adapted to women
and children. The Sisters of
Christian Charity, SCI Charles St,
Luzcrne, Pa, who attend many
cases of sickness say of them:
Some time ago we began using DR..
Miles Laxative Tablets and find that
we like them very much. Their action
Is excellent and we are grateful for
having been made acquainted with
them We have had good results in
every case and the Sisters are very
much pleased.
The form and flavor of any medi-
cine is very important, no matter
who is to take it. The taste and
appearance are especially important
when children are concerned. All
parents know how hard it is to give
the average child medicine" even
though the taste is partially dis
guised. In using Dr. Miles Lax
alive Tablets, however, this diff
Guilty is overcome. The shape of
the tablets, their appearance and
candy-like taste at once appeal to
any child, with the result that they
are taken without objection.
The rich chocolate flavor and
absence of other taste, make DR..
Miles Laxative Tablets the ideal
remedy for children.
If the first box fails to benefit,
the price is returned Ask your
druggist A box of IS doses costs
only IS cents. Never sold in bulk.
