Cleans Blood
Through Kidneys
A Most Important Func-
tion and One to be Care
fully Guarded.

The purpose of the Kidneys being to
hlter the blood the question of treating
supposed kidney weakness should be con-
Bidered carefully. Instead of drugs and
alleged kidney stimulants the better plan
is to purify the blood with an antidotI
effect such as you get from S. s. s.
1t should be remembered that the kid
neys are made up of fine net work OF
blood vessels, and It is to stimulate tho
functional activity OF kidney tissue
through this capillary net work that
3. 8. 8. shows one Of its most remarkable
effects.
The medicinal value OF the components
OF g. 8. s. are relatively just as vital to
healthy kidney action as the nutriment
obtained from grain. meat. fats, sugars,
or any other part OF our daily food is to
the natural reconstructive requirements
OF the tissues. And there is one COM
ponent OF S. s, s, which serves the active
purpose of stimulating the cellular tissues
OF the kidneys to a healthy and judlclous
selection of its own essential nutriment.
Thus, In cases OF rheumatism, cystitls.
chronic sore throat, huskiness of voice,
bronchitis, asthma, and the myriad OF
other reflex indications of weak kidney
action, first purify your blood with S. s. s,

their cellular strength and regain their
normal health.
You can get s. s. S. at any drug store.

70 Grow Hair on
A Bald Head
BY A SPECIALIST.

Thousands of people suffer from badness
and falling hair who, having tried nearly
every advertised hair tonic and hair-grower
without results, have resigned themselves to
badness and its attendant discomfort. Yet
their case is not hopeless; the following sim
pie home prescription has made hair grow
after years of badness, and is also unequalled
for restoring gray hair to its original color,
stopping hair from falling out and destroying
the dandruf germ. 1t will not make the hair
greasy, and can be put up by any druggist;
Bay Rum, 6 ounces; Lavona de Composee, 2
ounces; Menthol Crystals, one-half drachm.
II you wish 1t perfumed, add half to one tea
spoonful of To-Kalon Pefume, which unites
perfectly with the other ingredients. This
preparation is highly recommended by physi-
clans and specialists, and is absolutely harm
less, as it contains none Of the poisonous wood
alcohol SO frequently found in hair tonics.

Ways of the Philippine Head
Hunters.

Dean G. Worcester, formerly of the
University of Michigan, and now sec
retary of the Philippine Islands, gives
some interesting particulars about the
head hunters of the island of Luzon in
a recent issue of The Geographical
Magazine. He states that six or sew
en- Of the tribes found in the northern
part of the island have been addicted
to head-hunting. "When l first en-
tered the country of the Ifugaos," he
continues, 81 found many of the houses
ornamented with fresh human skulls,
and I saw many victims of head-hunt-
ing raids.
"When an Ifugao war party returns
with head it executes ceremonial
march or dance-one hardly knows
which to call it-which defies success
full description. The men have their
split raincoats on their backs. On the
insides of these raincoats are pockets,
which form convenient receptacles for
CORY trophies.
~ have seen house with tasteful
ornament frieze of alternating carabao
skulls and human skulls extending
around it at the height of the floor. I
have seen Others with great open-work
baskets of skulls hanging under the
caves.
"a man who loses his head is con-
sidered to have treated his family and
friends somewhat shabbily. He is not
buried as an ordinary person would be,
but is carried to a resting place on
some hillside far from his native viii
lage. A tunnel is excavated in the
earth, his body is carried into it and
placed in a sitting position and the
tunnel is then filled. A lance is
thrust into the ground over the grave
to show that he was killed in war, and
an anito image rudely fashioned out of
grass is left to watch over his last
resting-place." ;"

CARE FOR STACKED ALFALFA
Best Way to Cure Hay Is to Rake u
Into Small Wnrows and Let the
Crop Dry Out Slowly.

Sometimes weather conditions MAX
1t almost impossible to put alfalfa hay
in the stack In good condition, ant
heating and burning results. A. H
Leidligh, assistant professor Of cropa
at the Kansas Agricultural college
says a comparison will show why the
water does not readily cure out of the
stems. If a tree Is cut down on
cool, cloudy day, said Professor Leid
ligh, the leaves remain green and
fresh for some time. They take water
from the trunk and pass 1t off into
the atmosphere. If the weather Is
reasonably cool for a few days, the
water will all be taken out of the
tree.
Now, If the tree is cut down on a
hot, sultry day the leaves will dry
up and fall off, The water Is still In
the trunk Of the tree, and there Is no
way for 1t to get out quickly. 1t is the
same with alfalfa.
When 1t is impossible to wiring
water out of the hay. says Professor
Leidligh, 1t is dry enough to stack
The best way to cure hay is to rake IL
into small winrows and let 1t dry out
slowly. II the ground is damp, or II
the air is very moist, the winrows
must be turned frequently to expose
all the hay to the sun.
Hay often heats in the stack be
cause 1t Is rained on, or because It alb
serbs moisture from the ground. Not
less than $5 to $40 worth of hay ia
spoiled on the top and bottom of a
25-foot stack Of alfalfa, put up in the
usual way. This loss may be avoided
by stacking on foundation of poles,
or under sheds. The money saved on
a few stacks will pay for the shed.
Opinions differ on just how much
the feeding value of alfalfa L.. af
fected by heating. Some argue that
while 1t lowers the feeding value, 1t
improves the taste. Cattle usually
eat brown and black alfalfa with
more relish than they do the bright
green hay.

TlIIaae la Manure.

The old maxim that tillage is ma
nure has been shown to be true al
Cornell university farm, where ex
periments were made In that direc
ton. Some plots of potatoes were
cultivated as many as eight times
and In every case the greater the
number of times the plants were cul
tivated the larger the yields com
pared with plots on which fewer cul
tivations were given.
The level culture was better than
hilling. Two lots, cultivated eight
times, left perfectly level through
the season, produced at the rate OF
3S4 bushels and 357 bushels per
acre, and three lots cultivated five
times, produced $40 bushels. S25
bushels and 2SS bushels, the last lot
being hilled at the final cultivation.

are often chosen for home. With
the furnishing Of still more good food
and cover, combined with the destruo-
ton of some Of its enemies, the west
ern meadowlark may be expected to
still further increase In numbers.
Oats appear to be preferred. In the
fields inspected, damage was greatest
In sandy soil, for here the grain is
more easily obtained. Next to the
condition of the soil, the factor gov
erning the extent of damage appears
to be the proximity Of the natural
habitat OF the bird. Fields bordering on
marsh grass lands and pastures suffer
most. In some instances the meadow
lark have followed the drill row for
distances Of four to six feet and ap-
parently pulled every sprout. Barley
and wheat are attacked to less ex-
tent than oats. Field corn and sor-
ghum are not damaged
Meadowlarks can succeed In pulling
the sprouting grain only when 1t first
appears above the ground. After the
second and third blades appear the
plant Is we'll rooted and the kernel
no longer essential to the life of the
plant. Only the grain which Ia within
one and one-half inches Of the surface
ls obtainable. Hence the difficulty of
obtaining the kernel and the ter
mination of the time during which
the kernel is essential to the life of
the plant soon makes destruction Inn
possible. Hard, dry soil precludes
attack. Damage Is greatest after the
soil has been softened by rain. In
vestigation shows that fields appar-
emily greatly damaged while the grain
was sprouting have shown but little
damage at harvest time. In some
cases certain amount of thinning
may be beneficial 30 that unless the
damage is great the birds may per
form a real service. The fact that
oats ia most seriously damaged and
that, with the exception of barley and
wheat, other grains are not attacked
also minimizes the amount of possible
damage
When the benefits conferred by the
meadowlark are balanced with the
Injuries, there remains no doubt that
the bird deserves protection. It's
value as destroyer of injurious in
sects far exceeds its detriment as a
destroyer of sprouting grain. The
value of one of these birds living to
one dead is as five pounds of insects
and one-half pound of weed seeds is
to one and three-fourths pounds of
grain, considerable part of which is
made up of wild oats and waste
grain.
A strong point favoring their pro-
lection is to be found in the fact that
the damage to sprouting grain fields
can be largely prevented by planting
grain deeply and drilling instead OF
broadcasting, two measures highly
advocated as favoring larger crops.

By Fl. G. BRYANT.)


The meadowlark Is not true lark.
but belongs to the same family to
which the blackbird and oriole be-
long. Since the meadowlark Of the
eastern states differs from that found
In the western states In both song
and coloration, the bird Of the west
is termed the western meadowlark.
This is common bird from Wiscon-
sin, Illinois, Iowa, Texas, ETC., west to
the Pacific coast, also ranging north
into Canada and south into Mexico.
The meadowlark is well known be-
cause Of its size, bright plumage and
cheerful song. 1t is conspicuous
bird of treeless areas and freQuenter
of the meadow and pasture. In Cali
fornia 1t is found from sea level to
attitudes of 1000 feet In the noun
tains. 1t is most abundant In the
great central valleys where, In some
places, the birds may be seen con-
gregated In focks of fifty or more,
feeding almost entirely on the ground.
This meadowlark appears to be one
of the few birds which is profiting by
the increased cultivation of land. AL
falfa furnishes particularly good food
and cover for the bird and grain fields

Trsss In Boston Commons.

According to Frederick Il. Olmstead
in Country Life in America, 1t has cost
the city Of Boston about s7.650 per
acre to put the trees on the fifty acres
of Boston Common in good condition.
It cost $3.50 per acre to trench the
soil and supply proper plant food. and
about $500 per acre to protect from
insect ravages. It Is said that the
land in this same common or park has
valuation OF sS64.S29 per acre. This
means an actual cost at six per cent
in loss of taxes of over $4,000 per
acre. And yet some of our larger
towns and cities begrudge spending q
few hundred dollars occasionally in
their parks.
