"A Good hay crop
is a Mo1sy Gettsr
Can Be Insured BY Up-To-Dats
Methods Of Soil Preparation
and Seeding.
NICHOLAS SCHMITZ.
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

Compared with wheat, the value per
acre OF the hay crop in this State is
higher and practically e~ual to that
of corn, yet the methods commonly en-
ployed in producing the crop are no
different now from what they were SO
years ago.
As result the yield of the hay dur.
ing this time has remained practically
the same while the quality if anything
has deteriorated
The remedy for this condition is
simple. 1t is to be found in a change
of cultural methods. Instead of seed.
ing timothy in the fall with wheat, and
adding clover in the early spring, the
wheat should be seeded without the
grass, and after harvest, the stubbles
should be plowed down and timothy
and clover seeded without a nurse
crop. There is no better time for do
ing this than the latter part of July
or early August in the mountain sec
tions to early September in the south
ern and eastern counties of the State.
If the seeding cannot be done during
or before early September, then the
clover should be left out as it is very
apt to winter kill if seeded later.
10 be successful the land should he
plowed as early as possible, and work.
ed into a fine, firm seed bed. When
seeded under SUCH conditions full
crops of first class hay free from
weeds may be expected the following
season. The yield will be enough
higher over seeding the old way, to
pay for the extra labor in preparing
the land, What is more, the second
season the crop VIII be much better
than if it had been seeded in wheat.
A good rate of seeding is timothy, s
20 II pounds; red clover, to pounds,
and red top, . to 3 pounds
If red clover is not doing well on
the farm then A to pounds of alsike
clover should be substituted for the
red clover.
The seed may be mixed together
and sown through the grass seeding
attachment Of the wheat drill. or other
devices for seeding grass, but the
stand of clover will be little mere
uniform if it is sown separate. The
Seed should always be covered lightly
with spike tooth harrow, weeder or
brush drag.

Serious Error In EIktOn
Elkton Citizens Will Do Well to Profit
by the Following.

Many fatal cases of kidney disease
have reached an incurable stage be
cause the patient did not understand
the symptoms. Even today in Elkton
there are many residents making the
same serious error. They attribute
their mysterious aches and pains to
overwork, or worry, perhaps, when all
the time their rheumatic pains, back
ache and bladder Irregularities are
most probably due to weak and ailing
kidneys. If you are ill, if your kid
neys are out of order, profit by this

POTATO NOTES
GATHERED IN
AROOSTOOK co

Island Falls, Me, Nov. l0.-The Belve-
dere potato houses. where most Of the
potatoes of this vicinity are sold, have
been offering Soto 30 cents the past week.
II potatoes don't take a rise before long
many farmers throughout the country.
who lack in storage room, will be obliged
to sell at the prevailing prices. which ac-
cording to actuaries is no more than the
price Of raising them.
A farmer of this place was few weeks
ago offered 800 a barrel for 200 barrels
at the Beivedere houses, but instead, he
shipped them to a commission merchant
in Massachusetts, resulting in net profit
of SO cents.
We are told of another farmer living in
a neighboring town who shipped a car
load of choice stock to an out of the
state commission merchant and soon
after their arrival he received word from
the dealer, whom he had never seen, that
a dry rot had developed in about one
fourth of the lot and that many were
small and some seab was noticed, but
would remit the going price for the mar
ket potatoes. The farmer took the even
ing train for Boston and the next day
sauntered into the offices of the dealer
stating the nature of his errand was to
buy a car load of choice Aroostook po-
tatoes He was taken out and shown a
car, load lot which the dealer said had
just come from .Aroostook and he had
looked them over and could guarantee
them to be A No l stock. THAT Is just
what / thought when l shipped them to
you,' remarked the farmer.

WHEN AND HOW THE
BODY P0ISONS ITSELF

The underlying cause of much head
ache, particularly migraine, or sick
headache, bilious attacks, vertigo, or
dizziness. is intestinal auto-intoxiea-
ton. This process, recognized only in
recent years, is the absorption into the
blood of poisons produced in the in
testines from the residue of food.
The two most prominent factors in
causing this condition are constipation
and excessive meat eating. 1t can
therefore be largely avoided by care in
the diet and the use of a laxative
which will clear away the fermenting
residue of food which is generating
the poisons.
Pnllets. the new laxative, are ad-
mirably suited to protect the body
against the dangers of auto-intoxica-
ton for they gently assist nature and
do not grippe or purge. Harsh purga-
tives leave the system in worse
condition than they find it but Pink
lets give just the stimulation to the
organs of excretion that is needed to
produce natural action and If they are
used regularly for a time they will
really correct constipation.
Your druggist sells Pinklets or they
will be sent, postpaid on receipt of
price % cents per bottle, by the DIR.

How Thin People
3 Can Get Fat
Increase in Weight Ten Pounds or
More.
A Physicians Advice.

I'D certainly give most anything n
be able to fat up a few pounds and
stay that way" declares every excess
siyely thin man or woman. Such a
result is not impossible, despite pas,
failures. Thin people are victims of
mairnutrition, a condition which pre-
vents the fatty elements of food from
being taken up by the blood as they
are when the powers of nutrition are
normal. Instead of getting into the
blood. all the fat and flesh producing
elements stay in the intestines until
they pass from the body as waste.
To correct this condition and to
produce a healthy normal amount of
fat. the nutritive processes must be
artificially supplied with the power
which nature has denied them. This
can best be accomplished by eating
Sargol tablet with every meal.
SargoI is scientific combination of
six Of the best strength giving, fat
producing elements known to the
medical profession. Taken with
meals, it mixes with the food and
turns the sugars and starches into
rich, ripe nourishment for the tissues
and blood and it's rapid effect is re-
markable. Reported gains of from
ten to twenty-five pounds in a single
month are by no means infrequent.
Yet its actionis perfectly natural and
absolutely harmless. Sargol is sold
by Bowditch- Webster Co. and other
good druggists everywhere and every
package contains a guarantee of
weight increase or money back.
Caution,--While Sargol has pro-
dpced remarkable results in the treat
tnent of nervous Indigestion and gen.
eral stomach disorders, 1t should not
owing to it's remarkable flesh produc-
Ing effect. be used by those yho ara
not willing to increase their weight
ten pounds or rnore.--Adv.
