Sensible Women Know
Foundation of Health

AS health talks to women become
more general, both in the newspapers
and on the platform, the mass of women
are beginning to realize what the more
cultivated have always known, that
good health cannot be found in a powder
box. The externals of health may be
obtained in that way, but the basis of
health lies deeper, and yet is just as
easily obtained.
The most important thing that a
woman can do for herself, and about
which she is often most neglectful, is
to watch the condition of her stomach
and bowels. The weary eyes, the bad
breath, the frequent headaches, the
pimples. the general air of lassitude is
nine times out of ten the result of con-
stipation or indigestion, or both. Many
simple remedies can be obtained, but
the best in the estimation of most
women is DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin.
1t is mild. pleasant to the taste and
exactly suited to her needs. 1t rs far

Warning to Farmers

In view of the fact that manufac-
turers of complete fertilizers" are
extensively advertising their products
by means of circulars, editorials in ir-
responsible agricultural papers, and
agents sent out by so-called Fertile
er Associations" it becomes the duty
of the Illinois farmers institute TO
warn the farmers OF Illinois against
misleading statements made by these
agencies and call attention to the fact
that there is probably more profit to
the fertilizer manufacturers and deal
ern in the $50 received from the sale
OF two tons of acid phosphate (made
from one ton of raw rock ana one ton
of sulphuric acid), and still more
profit in perhaps $50 received from the
sale of four tons of complete fertil-
iZer" (made from two tons of acid
phosphate and two tons of filler,
containing small amounts of nitrogen
and potassium,) than there would be
in Sc or IS from one ton of fine
ground natural rock phosphate, car
rying the same amount of phosphorus
Some of these agencies referred to
use methods that are misleading, if
not absolutely untruthful; they even
resort to garbling quotations from re-
ports Of experiment station work to
show that raw rock phosphate is not
| useful as a fertilizer, and we earnest.
ly urge the farmers OF Illinois to care
fully study the results obtained on
the experiment fields of other states
&C well as of our own before accepting
/ the unfair and misleading statements
of the promoters of private, selfish
manufacturers, dealers or. agents.
We have an abundance Of authentic
I information on this subject, secured
at public expense, and the same is
| freely available to all who will take a
little trouble to investigate The facts
are that the results Of experiments in
| Maine, Massachusetts,, MARYLAND,
Rhode Island, Pennsylvania and Hi

But of greater value to American
agriculture perhaps than any other
along this line are the investigations
OF the Ohio experiment station, which

/ CATION as has ever been conducted

clover seeding the second year, and
the regular clover crop the third year,
these crops being rotated so that ev-
cry crop is represented every year.
In each field there are two plots that
are treated with manure alone which
is applied to the clover sod at the rate
OF eight tons per acre and plowed IN
der for corn, no further APPLICATION be-
ing made for the wheat or clover.
There are tive other plots in each
field treated with the same amount
OF manure to which has been added 40
rounds of raw rock phosphate with
each ton of manure. and there are
still two other plots on which, like
wise, the same quantity and kind Of
manure is used TO each ton Of which
is added 40 pounds of acid phosphate.
As an average of all the data from
the II years experiments, the in
crease from the raw rock phosphate
has been practically Identical with
that from the acid phosphate, while
| the cost of treatment was twice as
great with the acid phosphate as with
| the raw rock, while twice as much
phosphorus has been applied in the ap-
plications Of raw rock as in the ap-
plications of acid phosphates, so that
at the close of IL years the raw
phosphate plots contain as much 'ap'
piled phosphorus as the total appli-
cation made in the acid phosphate. In
case Of the clover crop, which has
power to secure nitrogen from the
air, or should have if the soil con
tains plenty of lime, the rock phos
phate has produced distinctly better
results than the acid phosphate, the
average difference amounting to .0S OF
