To have the pains and aches of bad
back removed-to be entirely free from
annoying, dangerous urinary disorders,
is enough to make any kidney sufferer
grateful. The following advice of one
who has suffered will prove comforting
words to hundreds of NEWS readers.
Mrs. M. Driscoll, Monroe ST., Mt
Holly, N. j., says: My trouble was
from my kidneys. l also had pains in
my back, and mornings when l got up,
felt all tired out These difficulties
continued until l used Dorn's Kidney
Pills, obtained at Jones' Pharmacy.
This valuable remedy soon disposed of
my complaint and restored my kidneys
to normal condition. In 1908 1 gave a
public statement telling of my expert
ence and at this time am glad to again
give Doan's Kidney Pills word OF
praise

NEED OF M0ISTENING
CORN WHILE IN SIL0
Excellent Time is When Crop is
Too Ripe or Severely
Frozen

Ordinarily corn cut at the proper
time does not need any water added
to make good silage. There are
times. however, when it is necessary
to add water to the corn in filling the
silo. The corn in the silo at the
time of filling should feel moist, II
not moist. water should be added.
Under any of the following condi-
tons water should be added to the
corn when filling the silo: First,
wien the corn is too ripe, and the
leaves and part of the stalks are dried
out to such an extent that they will
not pack we'll Second, when the
corn is severely frozen before 1t has
reached the proper degree of matur-
ity. liberating the moisture and leav-
i'm the leaves and stems dry. Third,
when refilling the silo late in the fall
with shocked corn 1t is always nee
essary to add water.
There are two ways to add water.
First put a hose in the silo and thor
pughly saturate the dry portions. es-
pec;ally around the walls. Second,
whero the blower cutter is used, run
an inch stream of water into the
blower when it is at work. This will
add a sufficient amount of water to
insure good results.

The high price of mutton during the
past few years has encouraged. par
ticularly dairymen. to pay more atten-
ton to making good veal. but there is
a woeful lack of this kind of meat now
on the market.
Most dairymen will not take the
trouble to fatten calves, but send them
past the age limit. and the result is
entirely unsatisfactory, both to the
seller and the customer.
Well fatted calves, weighing from
100 to $50 pounds, always bring high
prices, no matter what the condition
of the cattle market may be. City peo-
pie eat great deal of veal and would
consume much more if they could get
what they want, but the stuff seen on
the market is for the most part
stringy. unfinished and not at all sat

when ne goes to market he is about
as toothsome morsel as can be FOUND

of this kind of meat, and price cuts no
figure with them.
There is no reason why our dairy
men should not increase their prohts
materially by feeding their calves;
and it has always been a source OF
wonder to us why they so neglect this
part Of their business.
The fact is, the American public, 70
a large extent, is so prejudiced against
veal. having read gruesome tales
about bob veal being too often mar
keted that thousands are afraid 10

and the business systematized' we
would have in a few years a line OF
choice meat that would sell readily at
very high prices.
The first thing to be done would be
to amend the laws, to prevent the

LAMB RAISING PAYS
FARMER QUITE WELL
Sheep Industry On the Average
Farm is Considered Side
Issue.

The farmer who will pay close at.
tention to his breeding stock and
raise native lambs OF uniform size
and breed, feed them intelligently and
market them at the right time can
make more profit from his flock than
from any other farm investment As
4 rule the native" lambs sent to the
markets are so badly mixed, both as
to breed and feeding, that they are
torment to the buyer ana of little prof.
it TO the owner.
This is one of the reasons why the
western range lambs find great favor
in the big markets. They the more
uniform in size as they are fed il
large focks and 20 to market prac-
tically in the same condition. Only
small portion OF the native lambs
that are sold in the eastern markets
can be called prime, and his fact is
entirely the fault of the farmer.
AS a rule, sheep-raising on the av-
erage farm is merely side issue and
little attention is given to it. The
remedy of the present condition OF the
native lamb market lies entirely with
the men who produce the lambs.
Whenever the farmers are engaged
in the producing OF prime lambs for
market at any season OF the year, the
business has proven highly profitable
OF course the best markets are just
before Christmas and in the early
spring; at this period the prices are
always high.

ton-eating nation. and if the farmers
will improve their flocks and their
methods of feeding there is no reason
why the native lamb market should
not prove more proftabJe than that

H0GGING CORN CROP
INSTEAD OF HUSkING
Some Farmers Find This Prac-
tice of Much Advantage at
Times

In these days Of expensive labor
farmers sometimes find it to their adj.
vantage to hog of some of their corn
instead of husking it. The amount that
should be hogged off should be decided
ueon beforehand. and should of course
be proportionate to the number OF
hogs which are expected to consume
it, There should be access to water,
and the results will be all the better il
the hogs. at the same time. can have
access to a clover, blue grass or alfal-
ia field.
Corn should not lie hogged off un.
til it is pretty well matured; that is.
until the grains are well dented. Hog
gins il off before that time means a
waste of feeding valle, for corn grows
until the leaves are killed by frost or
die naturally. There are many cases
in which it is quite as well and much
cheaper to hog the corn off than to
husk it and feed it to the hogs. and
the practice is growing more popular
every year.

had the right formulate, the scientific
execution OF which was no longer
questionable. But with the making
OF isoprene our troubles were not
ended; on the contrary, they were but
beginning.
" We were confronted with the pro-
blem Of converting this liquid into
that tough, elastic, plastic colloid
which was to be a successful substi-
Jute for rubber, In truth its very
counterpart Theoretically the task
was easy, because, as Beilstein says,
isoyrene is converted into caoutchouc
by treating it with muriatic acid. OF
course, we tried that at once, but for
our pains we got nothing but oily
chlorides-not a trace of rubber. We
were apparently defed.
We tried all sorts Of likely and
imaginable physical and chemical
mediums in connection with isoprene,
but the wilful stun refused to thicken.
Finally l discovered the power to per
heat There was nothing new in
heating isoprene. but the result We
obtained thereby was new. Other
authorities had tried heat, but all they
got was either an oily or at best a
resinous substance.

Climatic and geographical conditions
have prescribed the zones in which
the rubber plant can be successfully

available, but to the Elberfelder Far,

priority in the solution OF the problem.
Dr. Fritz Hoffman. director in charge
at Elberfeld. gives his own story Of
the pursuit of the elusive key.
By mere chance my attention was
called 20 this question OF synthetic
rubber through a lecture delivered in
London about six years ago BY Prof
Durstan AS a pharmaceutic chemist
in a dye factory my work did not take
NE in the direction OF rubber, but the
problem fascinated me

Thousands upon thousands OF eK-
periments have thus been brought to
a crystallized knowledge which makes
it possible and practicable TO em0ack
upon the manufacture of rubber syn
thetically from available cheap mate
rials. The plantations in the far
east have been developing over a
period of fully thirty.;ve years. and
in sense they hsse the start of the
artificial product in a cumulative
estimate, but this advantage will not
continue If the chemist manufactures
can make rubber alphabetically as
cheaply as DR.. Hoffman, predicts.
In 1910 and 1911 the world produc-
ton of india rubber reached total
of about $4,000 tons and the world
consumption Of caoutchouc was in the
neighborhood of 10000 tons. Figur-
ing the cost of this rubber at an aver
age of 81 pound the total value of
the production reaches S160,000,000.
Synthetic rubber. it is believed,
would make it possible to widen the
field OF application OF rubber. Make
shifts and substitutes Of one sort or
another are now used in many direc-
tons, because natura! rubber is too
expensive. Therefore. the public Is
! interested IN the artificial product
| first because 1t will add stability to
the price of the rubber from trees. and
next it will make it possible to apply
| it in many ways now prohibited by
price and the relatively limited out
put of plantations and the wild
growth
Whether the basic isoprene be made
from a starchy substance after the
English process or from a product Of
coal, as Dr. Hoffman, has chosen
there will be immense quantities OF
by-products which will be a part Of
the systems employed in making iso-
prero and IN converting it into coun.
terpart caoutchouc in either case. 1t
would be financially prohibitive to
neglect these by-products in concen'
trating upon the manufacture of arti'
fetal rubber.
DR.. hoffman, says that if % per
cent OF artificial rubber could be pro
duced from every pound of basic mate
rial, then a factory turning out half
million pounds day would require
1000, 900 pounds of the mother sub
stance. three-quarterS OF which would
accumulate every twentyfour hours in
the form Of by-products. This gives
an idea of what the chemist-manufac'
turer has before him, even though the
secret of synthetic rubber has been
solved. With characteristic thorough
ness. the Germans are working away
at this end of the question.
So far as is known the German
synthetic rubber has met all the ex'
acting tests and analyses of other
German chemists On the other hand,
it is said that the English artificial
rubber is not chemically identical in
its atomic makeup with natural caout
chouc. and the critics declare that this
artificial substitute will not meet all
of the requirements. 1t seems that
the artificial rubber contains one
atom OF carbon less than natures

its tiny units otherwise distributed.
We soon recognized that the poly
merizing power Of heat could be
furthered by numerous chemical ad-
mixtures, but we soon found that
there aye many more substances that

August Of 1909 | obtained the first

that our product actually contained

tested cur synthetic material with
his ozone method, and BY this means
was able 70 establish that our heat

DR. Holman frankly admits that
should the extensive rubber planta-
tions cultivated under English dlrec-
ton in the Malay Archipelago meet
expectations synthetic rubber will not
be so necessary in supplying at a
more reasonable rate the present
market However, he says that the
synthesist has so adjusted conditions
that ne can compete with his ware in
price and quality with the natural
product.
