RASH WAS MASS OF SPOTS

811H Washington st., Salt Lake
City, Utah-T was first alarmed by
an itchy feeling all over my arms and
rash of tiny spots came out. The
rash was a mass of spots like measles
and developed into running sores. The
itching was terrible and l would
scratch something awful. l tried a
treatment but it availed not. / then
decided to try Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. After the first application
the itching stopped wonderfully. The
cure which followed was a marvel to
me for I thought l never would get
better. This was three years ago and
have as clear skin as any one may
wish. Cuticura Soap and Ointment
cured me entirely" (Signed) Miss
Kate M. Dobson, Mar IS, 1912.

DEEP FLOWING is ESSENTIAL
Equally Necessary Where Dry Farm

In all localities where dry farming
methods are employed, deep blowing
is essential. Equally necessary is the
use of the subsurface packer. blade
harrow or some other implement that
will pack the furrow slice firmly
against the subsoil. These two things
are essential to the preparation Of
good seed bed and a seed bed which
will take up and hold all the precipi-

orally speaking. too much blowing
and narrowing is done for the express
purpose of getting enough loose dirt

Transmisslbility of Genius.

The sale of relics of Robert and
Elizabeth Browning by executors of
the estate of their son, the late Robert
Weidemann Barrett Browning, which
began May l, again calls attention to
the fact that the child of a union
so richly lowered. from the literary
and artistic standpoint, failed to show
traces of the genius of either parent.
He was an artist, but did nothing ex-
traordinary. 1t would almost seem
that genius not only has a way Of
sometimes consuming its possessor
but also of consuming itself, as far
as the immediate offspring are con-
cerned. At any rate, the evidence as
to its transmissibility is still lacking,
although, of course, there are plenty
of facts to justify a belief as to the
transmissibility of special talents.

HER "BEST FRIEND"
A Woman Thus Speaks of Postum.

We usually consider our best friends
those who treat us best.
Some persons think coffee a real
friend, but watch it carefully awhile
and observe that it is one Of the
meanest of all enemies, for it stabs
one while protesting friendship.
Coffee contains a poisonous drug
caffeine-which Injuries the delicate
nervous system and frequently sets
up disease in one or more organs of
the body, if it's use is persisted in.
II had heart palpitation and nerv-

coffee. He advised me to leave it off,
but | thought | could not" writes a

we be sure that he has the potency

His Quick Flop.

Hundreds of letters are received ev-

known throughout the country as the
boys friend, and is Familiarity ad-
dressed as "Gunk." He always has
his eye open for the bad boy, the
tough kid of the neighborhood. This
is the kind of boy that he likes to en-
roll in his league and decorate with
one of his badges.
One of the masterpieces that he re-
ceived through the mail from one of
these boys says.
Dear Gunk: | thought | would
write to you and see if | couldn't get
one of them badges. l have several

SUMNER FALLoW HABIT BAD


Summer following Is justinable in
some localities. where the moisture OF
two seasons Is required for one crop.
writes L. F. Childers. in the Western
Farmer But in the wheat belt OF the
northwest 1t Is a grand waste OF time,
money and opportunity clear and
aside from the useless waite OF the
soils store of humus.
The loss OF time and money needs
no argument to convince: or oppor-
tunity. because there are highly re-
munerative crops which are well suit
I'd to NIL the gap. The objectionable
sin OF summer following Is the wanton
waste OF humus. This is the material
that colors the soil dark or black,
gives 1t life, makes 1t spongy or fri
able. II contains the nitrogen 80 nee
essary for the growth Of plants. Guilt
walton or summer blowing produces
nitrifcation by stimulating bacterial
action which. in the presence Of mois-
ture and air, consumes this humus.
The result is that more of these nj
trates are liberated than are required
for the succeeding crop. This excess
Is. therefore, exposed to leeching dur
ing the winter or early spring, and an
excess OF straw Is produced In the ma
tured crop. This straw contains much
nitrogen which Is wasted In the
burned or rotted straw heap.
At Rothamstead, England, the old
est experiment sation in the world.
two plats OF grounds were sown to
wheat. one alternated with wheat and
fallow, the other was sown continu-
ously to wheat. At the end OF At
years the alternated plot had yielded
an average of SIS bushels as against
12.4 for the continuous plat.
This does not argue that we should
seed one certain crop continuously up
on piece of land. Rotation should
be practiced here, but 1t does argue
that following should never be prac-
ticed unless scarcity of moisture
makes 1t necessary.

UNIQUE CASE OF FIllAu LOVE

Visitors to Paris who have recently

saddened by very unusual music
hall turn, writes the Paris correspond
ent OF the Brooklyn Eagle. Every
night. between the sentimental ten
or" and the "chanteuse legere," a
mournful looking young man appears.
He is greeted with derisive yells.
He sings, or tries to sing, senti-
mental ballad and a comic song He
also initiates animals, the noises of
tools and the whistling Of locomotives
The effect Is 80 deplorable that the
audience recently insisted on the no
BILE clown" apologizing for his lack OF
skill. He humbly advanced to the
footlights and bowed to right, left and
before him. Then in a voice choked
with sobs. he began to express his re-
greet. With pathetic resignation he
went down on his knees, offered pro-
fuse apologies for his lack Of skill and
promised to do his best to please them
In the future.
Few who have seen this lamentable
exhibition know its origin and ex-
cuse. This abject buffoonery is in
spired by one of the noblest motives
filial love. This descendant of one of
the oldest and noblest families in Ven

with his inf1rm and penniless mother.
For many years they lived on the
charity of friends, but the old woman
is now in such health that admission
into an almshouse would be the only
means of saving her life. But this
cannot be obtained without the pay

Is now employing the only means of
procuring it open to him.

Location of Garden Of Eden.

Many Biblical scholars place the
Garden Of Eden between the Euphrates
and the Tigris. This is now to be re-
claimed and once again made fertile.
English engineers have already in
vaded the region, and are building a
great dam across the Euphrates, not
far from Bagdad, by which water will
be carried over the land as is done in
Egypt and India. That the soil is ex-
ceedingly rich there is no denying.
