"MY CATARRH
IS GONE" SAYS
Mr.. 7. ]. bRENDEL
Man of Seventy-six Years
Makes Statement.
Tells of Remarkable Results
From Master Medicine.
SALE OF TANLAC GROWING

One OF the most remarkable state
ments ever made regarding Tanlac.
the famous medicine that is now being
introduced in Richmond, was given
yesterday at the home of Harry Bren-
del, 1019k Main street. well-known
associate of the Bee Hive grocery,
when his father, T. J. Brendel of JEFF
fersonville. Ind told of his battle for
health with catarrh.
II am IS years DID," said Mr. Bren-
del to the Tanlac man. Like most
people in this climate, suffered
severely from catarrh, and last winter
it became serious. / tried numerous
home remedies but without success.
and had just about decided that it had
to be put up with when a friend of
mine told me of Tanlac, which was
then being introduced through The
Taylor-Isaacs Co.'S drug stores in
Louisville.
Il didn't take much stock in medi-
cines, but as this man was a good
friend of mine decided to give Tan
lac trial. took five bottles and am
happy to say I've no trace of catarrh
in my system. All the old coughing.
hooking and splitting has disappeared.
/ no longer suffer those choking spells
and can sleep fine. Another thing that
Tanlac has done for me is to improve
my appetite. and it seems in that way
to give me new strength.
81 cannot say too much in praise Of
this famous Medicine and can recon-
mend it to all who suffer as did
When asked to express himself re-
garding Mr.. Brendel's surprising re-
covery. the Tanlac man said:
"One Of the most prevalent and dis
tressing conditions is chronic catarrh
of the mucous membranes, which
seemed to be Mr.. Brendel's trouble.
Catarrh of the nose and throat often
produces stomach, liver and kidney
troubles and catarrh of the head leads
to inevitable deafness. Those who
suffer from this almost universal
malady often do not know what ails
them.
They are tired, WORKOUT. depressed
and nervous. Their digestion is poor
and they have little or no appetite be.

their vital organs. which are clogged
with poisons they are too weak to
throw off. Tanlac is designed to elm
mate these poisons, to strengthen
these vital organs and prepare the way
for nature to restore the system &c
normal-and 1t does.
"Tanloc has won the title Of MAS
ter Medicine" because it masters most
of the ailments and diseases when
others fail. Many are calling daily at
Thistlethwaite's, Sixth and Main
streets. the sole agency for Tanlac in
Richmond. and the sale continues to
increase.-adv.

The great variation in the time

The great variation in the time
and amount of precipitation in
this region must be constantly
kept in mind, when considering
the time Of blowing. No de-
pendence can be placed on a
heavey precipitation in August
and September, yet it frequently
occurs. AS moisture is consider
ed, the most important factor in
crop production in the Great
Plains area, it's conservation is
the primary obje.v in cultivation.
BY many who have had little or
no experience in actual farming
in the semi-arid regions of the
West, annual blowing is consider
ed as the most necessary Of the
cultural operations, but this i,
not substantiated either by the
experience of many successful
farmers, or by the records from
experimental work. The smooth

face looks we'll, and giver the i'm

farm operations, but may prove
detrimental to crop production.
The smooth, 'hnely-pulverized
surface is readily subject to blow
ing, and the loose, unpacked seed
bed may be quickly dried by the
rather free circulation of air thru
it. Stubble left on field may
give it an unkept appearance,
but at the same time it. may be Of
value in catching snow or prevent
ing the soil from blowing.
Stubble weeds and uneven
ground are common means OF
retaining snow and holding a
large part of the winter preci-
pitation. In deciding when a
field should be plowed, tae ques-
ton Of whether greater amount
of moisture will be accumulated
by holding the snow that falls
than will be dissipated by the
growth Of weeds is paramount.
1t must be decided by the man on
the ground. In answering this
question several factors must be
considered, namely, the amount
Of moisture already in the soil
that may be lost through weed
growth, the probable time before
the weeds will be killed by frost
the possibilities of increasing the
water in storage in the soil by
holding the snow that may come,
the danger Of soil blowing if the
stubble and weeds are removed,
and the distribution of farm lab
Or. The Importance of these
factors is considered i'm the new
United States Department of Ag-,
ricultural Bulletin No. 253, The
Effect of Different Times of Plow
ing Small-grain Stubble in East
ern Colorado. The major por-
ton Of the bulletin is given to a
description of the time of blowing
for spring wheat, but is as ap-
plicable to oats and corn. The
experiments were performed at
Akron, (Colorado) field station,
but the deductions are general and
useful throughout the entire
Great Plains area. The exper-
iments extend over a period Of
six yQars, from 1909 to 1914,
inclusive, and during those years
the fluctuation in rainfall was as
great as would be expected thru
any like period.
1t was found that there was a
wider variation in the precipita-
ton of the fall and winter, When
the moisture should be stored,
than during the growing months.
Rains in August and early Sept
ember invariably produce a grow
tn Of weeds, which usually ex-
haust the valuable moisture sup
ply. The loss Of moisture which
has penetrated to a greater depth
than 3 inches, after the weeds
are dead in the fall and before
growth starts in the spring, is al
most negligible. Either from
that covered with stubble, light
precipitation evaporates unless it
falls as snow, which is blown in

10 inches Of light snow are equi-

readily seen that SHOWS of to 2

therefore, to conserve the. mois-

CHANGE CONSTITUTION

Washington Representative Bryan,
Of Washington, has introduced reso-
LUTON to amend the federal constitu-
ton BY providing that a majority, in
stead Of two-thirds, of both houses Of
Congress, may propose constitutional
amendments, and to make their rati-
fication by two-thirds instead of three
fourths of the states sufficient.
This new plan calls for the submis-
sion to the voters every twenty years
of the question whether there shall be
a convention, which if aff- natively
decided, would be followed " chooe
ing of delegates and assembling Of the
convention March 4, two years alter
ward, and for submission of the con-
vention's recommendation to popular
vote at the ensuing presidential cleo
ton. A majority of Congress or a
majority of state legislatures might
call for the submission of the question
of holding a convention at other presi-
dental elections than those falling on
the twenty-year intervals.
