DOING A OISAGREEABLE DUTY IN AN
AGREEABLE WAY

OF the many disorders to which the
human body is subject to, constipation
is one of the more serious on account
of the things it may lead to-
There seems to be scarcely any ave-
nue. of disease towards which consti-
patton does not lead: in a more or less
straight direction. 1t is therefore inn
possible 20 over estimate the import
ance of keeping the bowels clean and
regular.
Decaying matter if not expelled
gives off poison which may endanger
practically every important organ of
the body: the presence of these pois-
ons make themselves known by such
symptoms as sick headache, ringing
in the ears, blurred eyesight, weakness,
drowsiness, depression, cramps, coat
ed tongue, bad breath. etc, etc.
The many sufferers from constipa-
tion who have used black capsules
need not be told of their excellent
qualities. Those who have not used
them should know what they are mis-
sing. Black capsule are a gentle laxa-
tive and do not perform by force what
should be accomplished by persuasion:
they do a disagreeable duty in an
agreeable way.

standpoint of production, but the ma

swine have been selected and bred
with this particular end in view for
upward of a century. And the princi.

Perhaps the second greatest factor in
favor of the pure bred is the certainty

in the Rural New Yorker All the
breeding associations of repute require
that both sire ana dam meet the above

What Is Agriculture Credit?

Agriculture credit is something Wit
ally interesting To every citizen of this
country. The term is new here, but
the thing itself is SO urgently needed
that we must have ii i'm some form if
our people are TO continue To live.
How will agric tlture credit help us?
Speaking generally, ii will make life
easier and better for all of US by in
creasing the yield of the land. And
this will be done, first, by placing agri-
culture on better business basis;
second, by mobilizing land and land
mortgages; and. third, by establishing
financial institutions in which the
prime interest will be that of the bori
rower-not that OF the lender. If this
programme seems utopian, the best
reply is that its aims have been al
ready realized with great gain i'm Eur
ope. notably i'm Germany and France
ON the Continent Of Europe a solu-
ton Is found in the organization Of
banks by the application of so-called
cooperative principles.
After the cooperative bank is
formed the problem of securing funds
to loan is, Of course, the chief one. but.
as one OF the principles followed is to
limit dividends on the stock TO or 3
per cent, a reserve can be gradually

is seen that the bank Is doing a safe

The apple growers OF Michigan are
threatened with another pest that will
undoubtedly infest every orchard II II
is not checked according to r. III.
Petit. Entomologist at the state ex-
pertinent station. This time il is the
Apple Red Bug. This bug has been
the bane of New York orchardsmen
for the past several years, and they
are having no end of trouble in check
ing its work of depreciation.
In speaking OF the bug Mr.. Petit
says that
The present spring has shown the
presence in the central part of the
state on the apple of the red bugs,
though just how far they have spread
is not known, 1t was of course to
be expected that sooner or later they
would reach us and perhaps we have
escaped as long as could be expected.
The first case was found by Mr.. G..
&. Woodin, member of the Depart
ment of Entomology at the Agrcul-
ture College, while examining trees for
scale. The bugs are Matching out
now and are crawling about. one
species is bright red in color while
the other has blackish markings.
They are very small as yet, being
about 1.16 of an inch long. The bugs
pierce the young fruit as soon as il
sets and either cause ii to drop or else
deform it. The leaves are also cur
led by the creatures. AS TO the con-
troll, tobacco preparations have proven
the most satisfactory. Nicotine or nj
cotine sulphate (black leaf 40) the
latter, one to eight hundred. with "A
little soaps added, have proven sue
cessful in killing the nymphs, after
once hatched out and before the adult
stage is reached. A spray put on
at this time has the further advan-
tage Of killing many of the plant lice
or aphids at the same time.

Faulty Incubation Makes weak Chicks


Many beginners have laid the blame
for weak chicks and poor results in
Matching eggs when placed in incu-
bators for Matching upon the breeders
shoulders. when in "A majority Of cases
the blame lies wholly with the oper-
ating OF the incubator or i'm the care
of the eggs after they have been re-
ceived 1t is true that there are cases
where the breeder is at fault, in the
poor condition Of his flock and some
times. not often, In the careless hand
ling OF the Matching eggs from the
nest to shipment. From leading
breeders these cases are rare, and

EIGHT HOUR LAW
STIRS SUFFRAGISTS
Now Want Probe of Living Cost
In Washington.

Washington-The passage a short
time ago of the Peters-La Toilette bin
limiting the hours Of labor for women
in the District of Columbia exclusive
of stenographers, to eight day has by
no means settled the woman labor
problem in Washington 1t has brought
the problem into the field of open dis
cussion, with a result that more people
are talking about the problems Of wo-
men workers in the capital than ever
before.
The center of the discussion is the
District branch of the National Con
sumers' league, whose operations are
directed by Miss Constance D. Leupp
Inasmuch as the activities of the Con
sumers league here are typical of the
kind of work which is being done by
the same or other organizations
throughout the country, the matter is
really one of more than local interest.
The Consumers league has laid out
definite program of action. Having
passed the eight hour law. it is now
asking the senate to appropriate $4,000
for a study of the cost of living in the
District Of Columbia to be made by
the federal bureau Of labor statistics.
Having secured officially the statistics
of living-aHd a favorable report on
the resolution in question indicates
that the chances are in favor of the in
qulry's being ordered-the Consumers
