DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications. as they can
not reach the diseased portions of
the ear There is only one way to
cure edafness, and that is by consti-
tutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition OF
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored
TO its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh, which
is nothing but an inflamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give 500 for any case
of deafness (caused by catarrh), that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

Big Potato Crop in Missouri.

Big Potato Crop in Missouri.
The Missouri potato crop for thi!
year is big one. It is probable tina
the yield will be more than double
that of last year, when the entire state
grew but 1888, 900 bushels, or ar
average Of only 80 bushels per acre,
The Orrick district, in Ray county,
has grown a crop estimated at 1,2OC
carloads-more than fifty train loads.
Most of these potatoes have sold al
from 46 to so cents per bushel, in the
the cars. The yield will be about 200
bushels per acre. One grower who
three years ago bought IS acres of
land at $3.50 per acre has since grown
1923, 900 worth of potatoes on this
tract, the profit equaling the purchase
price. Good potato land in the Or
rick district is now selling at $3.50 to
$500 per acre, and rents at $40 per
acre, cash. The Missouri State Board
Of Agriculture, Columbia, is getting
out bulletin on potato growing. It
is free.
$50 for Country Ham.
In order to encourage the curing of
meat on Missouri farms, the State
Board of Agriculture, T. C. Wilson,
Secretary, Columbia, will hold ham
and bacon show during next Farmers
Week, January 10 to II, 1918. Fifty
dollars-$25, SIS and $1O-will be
given in premiums for best country
cured ham, and the same premiums
will be awarded on country bacon.
Entrance will be free. Farmers
should "set aside" choice pieces of
meat now, or may enter meat butch
cred early enough next fall to allow
curing.
Fine Yield of Grass Seed.
Missouri has this year harvested
the best crop of Kentucky blue
grass" seed in her history. The ship
ment from one Knox county town in
northeast Missouri is estimated at
100000 bushels, as compared with
IS, 600 last year. One Jackson coun-
ty farmer harvested 1000 bushels
and would have had 800 more but for
a storm at harvest time. A Strip
per-" a spiked-cylinder arrangement,
is used in harvesting the seed.
Red Top is another grass crop of
importance, especially in southwest
Missouri. This crop is harvested
with a binder, shocked like wheat
and later threshed. The yield runs
from 4 to IL bushels per acre, IA
pounds constituting a bushel. The
price is variable--from to IA cents
per pound, although it has sold as
as high as $14.5O per hundredweight.
Another grass seed crop of Mis-
souri, is English Bluegrass" grown
in Henry, St. Clair and other coun-
hes of that section. Wesley Griffith
was pioneer grower, and his daugh-
ter, whose home is in Henry county,
has many acres of the grass. This
year five carloads have been shipped
from Lowry City alone. The price
has been IL IL cents per pound, or
b per bushel of "a pounds. With a
yield of from 10 to 10 bushels on best
meadows this means returns of from
l39 to $57 per acre.
The Missouri State Board of Agri-
culture is calling attention to the fact
hat the grass seed crop of the state
'or an average year, is worth
b, 0OO 600.
