A word OF Canton Regarding
Crimson Clover

TOO much cannot easily be said
IN favor Of crimson clover, but q
gord OF caution is advisable.
l have seen much more good
crimson clover IN the middle South
lhis season than ever before. Ia
fact, some Of the fields have been
simply magnificent in the large
growth Of the plants and their rich
crimson beauty, and IL | mistake
not, acreage shown this fall will be
ien.fold that ever sowed before.
This Is why / wish to issue a word
ef advice. The crop is such a good
one that nothing must be omitted
that will encourage its growth on
an extensive scale all over the Cot
ton Belt; for am now after many
years observation of it all over the
Sonth, thoroughly convinced il Is
the best Of the winter legumes for
The Cotton Belt and that it will
grow anywhere in the South on
land that grows corn, cotton and
other field crops, il gwen proper
treatment. Unfortunately, how.
ever, il has Its weakness. This is
the difficulty in getting a stand some
seasons. II Is killed after coming
up or fails to germinate during some
Of our exceedingly dry hot fall
weather. II sowed too early, j,
may germinate early and be killed
by the dry, hot weather, OF il il
fails to germinate promptly on ac.
count Of the dry weather, after il
does come it may be killed by early
frosts. On the other hand, If not
sowed until late, the same result
may follow a bard winter. Last
fall, over a large part of the middle
South, conditions were almost ideal
for sowing crimson clover and there
were practically no f,ilures, al,
though much of it was not sowed
Rntil late IN October and even un.
Ill November.
We wish to caution our readers
against too late sowing, for failures

Chronic, Crippled-up Sufferers
Find Relief After Few Doscs
y of New Remedy are
~ Taken

L is needless to suffer any longer
with rheumatism, and be all crippled
rp, and beat out Of shape with is
heart-wrenching pains. when you can
surely avoid 1t.
Rheumatism comes from weak. ir-
active kidneys, that fail to filter fror.

ter aud uric acid; and it is useless %
RIB on liniments or take ordiuary
remedies % relieve the pain. This
only prolougs the misery and cant
possibly cure you.
The only WY to cure rheumatism
Is to remove tile cause. The new dis
coyery, Croxone. does this because it
neutralizes and dissolves all the poi
sonous substances and uric acid that
lodge in the joints and muscles, to
scratch and irritate and cause rheu-
matism, and cleans out and strength
ems the stopped-up. inactive kidneys,
so they can filter all the poisons from
the blood and drive il on and out Of
the system.
Croxone is the most wonderful
medicine ever made for curing chron-
ie rheumatism, kidney troubles, and
bladder disorders. You will find it
different from all other remedies.
There is nothing else on earth like it.
II matters not how old you are, or
how long you have suffered. it is
practically impossible 20 take il into
the human system without results.
You will find relief from the first few
doses. and you will be surprised how
quickly all your misery and suffering

thorized to sell it on positive money

LAZINESS is A DISEASE.

When the wide prevalence Of hook

Incidence is a symptom of a very

many a child, has been blamed for
Incidence, when he was actually in
need of medical treatment. Says a
writer in the Revue Scientifque,

may be chased as p~hysiologic, which

WORLDS RECORD COW
EARNS $716.19 IN YEAR.

May Ritma. Owned by Major Cassatt.
Proves Good Investment
It paid to coddle and pamper and
pet May Rilma.
May is a Guernsey cow enjoying
luxurious existence on the Chester
brook farms of Major Edward B. Cas-
sale. at Berwyn. It has previously
been announced that she established
a new eco for butter fat produc-
ton. but it was not known until yes
terday whether the years constant
care and attention to May had paid"
aside from the glory Of record smash
ing.
But Major Cassatt says it did. At
ter a little figuring, he announced that
May was just $716.19, in the period
from April Z, 1913, until last Tues
day.
In that time she produced 1e,639.5
pounds of milk. which showed -O59.55
| pounds of butter fat. That amount
topped the record for butter fit pro-
duction by more than a pound.
Few cows live under such constant
| care and supervision as May Rilma.
Albert Van Tuinen, chief dairyman
| of the force of Holland dairy experts,
was virtually her slave. He slept in
the barn, and in cold weather a stove
was kept lighted. The temperature
| WAS never dl1OWCO W Sel DclOW tI1c
6~0-degree mark.
Profit in the careful treatment Of
MAY Rilma was shown by the follow
ing figures compiled by Major Cas-
satt:
May Rilma furnished 19,639.5
pounds of milk during the 365 days
of the test. h was sold at 6 cents
a pound, SO the COW brought in. in
cash, $117Sl37.
The daily feed was Is pounds Of
mixed grain ration at $.55S; 3 pounds
Of beet pulp at $.045; 3 pounds Of
molasses, 1892; 80 pounds Of ensi-
lage, sos; 10 pounds of hay, $.015.
This GA pounds of feed per day cost
s.6995, a total of $255.31 for 365 days
During 81 days of the test May Rilma
was fed some carrots, the cost being,
altogether, 1882. So the cost OF
feeding the COW was $27e.S3.
Major Cassatt also charged against
the COW 4 tons Of straw, $44, and Il
DAYS labor of one nan for the whole
period, $147.35. The total cost OF
feed, straw and care was therefore
S462.1s. Major Cassatt also charged
against May Rilma the cost of con.
!. structing a box stall, but he pointed
, out that the actual cost Of producing
