SWAMP ROOT SAVES
 KIDNEY SUFFERERS

You naturally feel secure when you know that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy, is ab- solutely pure and contains no harmful or habit producing drugs.
 The same standard of purity, strength and excellence, prescribed by Dr. Kilmer many years ago, is maintained in every bottle of Swamp-Root.
 Swamp-Root is scientifically compounded from vegetable herbs. It is not s stimu- lant and is taken in tesspoonful doses. It is not recommended for everything. Ac- cording to verified testimony it is natures great helper in relieving and overcoming kidney, liver and bladder troubles.
 If you suffer, don't delay another day. Go to your nearest druggist now and get q bottle. All drug stores sell it in two sizes-hfty cents and one dollar.
 However, if you wish first to try this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y., for . sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.-Adv.

RIGHT PROPORTIONS
 IN POULTRY NATIONS
Hens Get Fat and Lazy When Given Nothing but Platform
 ina Feed-Avoid Extremes.

Suppose you feed your hens on . fat-forming ration altogether, and this is the kind they eat most greedily. Feed a corn mash in the morning. cracked corn at noon, whole corn at night. The hens would get fat and lazy and lay few eggs; presently they would get liyergrown, break down and die. Feed the same flock, instead of the fat-making food, full protein wheat. green bone. meat scraps or bran. At first the eggs laid would surprise you; soon you would notice the hens getting light: diarrhea would set in. then indigestion and rheumatism; the egg crop would short en up, and it would be more diffi- cult task to get that flock back to health than when fed the fat-forming ration. These are the extremes in feeding. Both rations are needed, but must be mixed to right proportion.

 The dairy farmer who keeps so many COWS that he must neglect them to take proper care of his crops, has made a wrong division of his opera tions. The COWS should be taken care of first and only as much land be cropped as can be wei csTe1 .c- be- tween milkings.
 The good dairy COW is wedge-shaped in two directions. She is wide in the rear and narrow in front. She Is mar row on the top of the shoulders and wide between the forelegs. This shape gives room for large amount of feed and for big heart, denoting strong arterial circulation.

 Humus Is Necessary.

Flax is not hard on the land- when compared with other crops.
 Flax should not be grown on the same field oftener than once in five or seven years.
 Flax wilt germs are carried by the seed, and live from year to year in the soil. The formaldehyde treatment will disinfect the seed.
 Flax can be successfully grown on old lands when properly handled. Do not SOW nax on fax-sick soil.
 Early planting is safest in the long run.
 A firm seedbed is . necessary.
 Harvest the crop when it is ripe Thresh or stack as soon as possible when fax gets dry.
 Flax in rotation should follow the hay or pasture crops. A large amount of bumus is necessary in the soil.

Cows should not stand facing win dow unless the window is covered with muslin. By the way, the muslin window in a COW stable is better by far than glass. It gives a subdued light and furnishes an ideal system of ventilation.
 No man can succeed in dairying un- less he knows that each COW is pay ing him a profit. A dairy COW that does not more than pay for feed and care is a robber that should not be al low to live.
 There is no method of feeding which will increase the percentage of fat in a given cows milk 10 any con siderable extent, but there are meth ods of feeding which will make a non paying COW profitable. very often. slm ply by increasing the quantity of milk she gives.

RIGHT FEEDING FOR CALVES
FIaxseed Jelly Is Excellent Substitute
for Fat or Cream-Give Some
Bran and Whole Oats.

There is no need of feeding the or
binary calf for longer period than
one week on whole milk. CT course
the change to sweet skim milk should
not be made suddenly. nor without
substitutes for the fat or cream. To
replace the fat that has been removed
from the milk. as well as to furnish
additional protein, there is nothing
that can take the place of ilaxseed
jelly. This jelly should be added in
small quantities at first and slowly in
creased. Begin with desserts poonful
in each feed and gradually increase
until about a cupful is being fed night
and morning to the three-months-old
calf. To prepare this jelly steep one
pound of whole fiaxseed in water al.
most boiling, until thick paste re.
suits. 1t should be kept cool and sweet
until fed In addition to the fisxseed
jelly little dry bran and whole oats
should be fed. Some clean, sweet hay
will be found a valuable addition tc
the ration al very early age.

ALLAN WALLIS
Son Of Mr.. A. N. Wallis, Of
This City, Makes Another
Upward Step.

The Philadelphia Commercial
Journal has this article concerning a
Hopkinsville boy,who has taken high
rank in insurance circles in the east:
Insurance circles of this and 9TH
err cities will doubtless be interested
to learn of the consolidation of two
of the branches of the New York
Life Insurance Company in this city,
the Keystone with offices at Twelfth
and Chestnut streets, and the Inde-
pendence located at 910 Chestnut
street which has been merged into a
single branch under the direction
of Allan d. Wallis as Agency Direc.
tor.
The new agency will be known as
the Independence and it has been
announced that suitable quarters
have been obtained in the Common
wealth Building on the sixth floor,
and after the LIST of the north they
will be occupied by the new agency.
Extensive alterations will be made,
and when occupied the new offices
will be in thorough keeping with the
size and importance of the occupant.
1t seems unnecessary to go into
special detail concerning the New
York Life Insurance Company as it
is one of the largest, most important
and best known in the world. and
for this reason any change in con-
nection with its Philadelphia repre-.
sentatives is a matter of no little in
terest to many persons. 1t may be
stated that Mr.. Wallis is the right
man for the place, for he is one of
the most successful managers of the
company anywhere. He was born in
Kentucky, in 1873, and after. some
time in business life he entered the
life insurance field with the New
York Life. in Baltimore. Md. He
promptly demonstrated bis ability
and fitness for the work and adj
vanced rapidly. In 1902 he was
transferred to Philadelphia. and
since that time has been a
prominent factor in the business
here. He has made splendid rec
ord in this city and has host of
friends both business and personal,
all of whom are well pleased to learn
of his increased responsibilities and
without exception they state he will
more than measure up to the i'm
portance of the work. Mr.. Wallis
has long been an important factor
in the Philadelphia Association of
Life Underwriters of which he is
one of the most enthusiastic men,
bers and he is also active in other
organizations of a social and bust
ness nature.
We can only say that this paper is
agreed with his other friends that
the company acted wisely in select
ing him as Agency Director, and we
do not hesitate to predict even
greater things from this city than
ever before in the history of the
New York Life Insurance Company"
