FEELING !! SLUGGISH!


Well, DOM blame yourself or let peo-
pie tell you that you're lazy. 1t is un-
doubtedly due to the fact that your Liv-
er, Kidneys, Bladder or Blood are not
in normal condition. BIG CHEF RY-
MOL, taken regularly, will keep you in
perfect condition. 1t cleanses the liver
of excess bile; flushes the kidneys to
throw off bodily impurities, and keeps
the blood in just the right condition to
make you feel at your best.
1t is prepared strictly without drugs,
from the fine herbs and roots that the
Indians discovered years ago. 1t has
none of the unpleasant action of calo-
mel and other strong drugs, but works
better.
BIG CHIEF RYNOL means so much
to the health Of the entire family that
it ought to be kept in every home. In
order to convince everybody of its great
worth, we make the following offer for
the first bottle.

BEEF CATTLE
| PROSPECTS IN GEORGIA
M. p. Jarnaein, Professor of Animal
Husbandry, Georgia State Col
lege Of Agriculture

Feeding cattle for beef during the
past two years has been fraught with
uncertainty because of unusual condi-
tons caused by the war, high cost of
feed stuffs and the foot and mouth
disease.
During the year 1914 the price of
feeders was higher than during the
fall of 1915. The reasons assigned
are that there are not so many buy
ers in the field because of the price
Of foodstuff. Here in Georgia and
northern Florida there were many
western buyers during the fall of
1914, taking up thousands of cattle,
but during the fall of 1915 they did
not show up. AS consequence local
cattle are bringing less.
True, cottonseed meal is up, but
close figuring will reveal that the saw
ing in the buying price of the animal
is greater, at least that the time this
is written, than the increased cost of
meal will amount to in a feeding Pc
riod of 80 to 100 days.
The fact that there are fewer cat
tie being fed for the market would
indicate good prices at marketing
time. In view of these considerations
it would appear that this will be
good year to feed cattle for beef in
Georgia, providing the farmer has
some home grown feed and a silage.

Potash Prospects
cultural Chemistry, Georgia State
College OF Agriculture

Many inquiries are being made as
to the prospects of obtaining potash,
in view of the absence of the usual
supply from Germany The indica-
cations are that the fertilizer dealers
are going to put on the market, for
the most part, a low grade potash.
Government investigations of alunite
in Utah has developed that it is a
practical source of potash, and some
of the fertilizer dealers are already
making use of it.
Not much progress has been made
in obtaining potash economically from
feldspar for fertilizer purposes, nor
has there been very much obtain
ed from kelp of the western coast
From all these sources not enough
potash will be obtained to equal the
normal demand made upon Germany
and nothing at present indicates that
when the war ceases this country will
not again rely upon the German mines.
AS a substitute for potash, the
farmer of Georgia will find that cotton
seed meal, if obtained at reasonable
price, may be associated with acid
phosphate and give good results.
About Ia per cent of the cottonseed
meal is potash. Considering that many
Georgia soils are not deficient in pot
ash, this combination may give as
much satisfaction, generally speak
ing, as could probably be hoped for
at this time.

Savings Incident To Proper
Storing Of Farm Machinery
l.. c. Hart, Professor OF Farm Mechan.
les, Georgia State College
Of Agriculture

Before the winter sets in the ma
chinery of the farm should be I'M
der shelter and at the first opportun-
ity the farmer should obtain some
thick black train oil costing from ~
to Is cents per gallon, and apply this
to all polished surfaces of the ma
chinery. This can be done with a
mop stick.
of a rusty plow is twenty-five per
cent greater than one that has been
kept free from rust with proper oil
ing. The dirt, of course, adheres to
the rusted parts instead of shedding
with less friction over a smooth and
shining surface
Care should be taken to exclude
dust from the bearings of all kinds
of machinery. This can best be done
by getting the oil there first. A lib
eral application of oil should, there
fore, be made to all bearings. If, in
the spring, when the machinery is
taken out for use, it is found that the
bearings are gummy, apply an oil that
is half kerosene and half machine oil
for the first half hour of operation
and then apply the regular machine
oil.
Putting the machinery of the farm
in shape now and keeping it in shape,
will be great saving next spring,
when the farmer is busiest, and when
the troubles incident to rust and
poorly kept machinery will show up
worst.
