HANDY LOW-WKEELED TRUCK
Nothing Beats II for Convenience in
Hauling Fodder, Hay or Anything
Else About the Farm.

What piece of machinery is more
convenient and useful on the farm
than the low-wheeled truck? In haul
ing about the farm this is the wagon
to use SO times out of 100, because
it is handy. There is nothing tha,
beats it for hauling fodder, hay-any
thing, in fact, where help is scarce
especially the green corn for the silo
The ease of loading onto the low truck
and getting on and off saves time and
obviates danger of getting hurt.
tight platform wide enough for hay
rack answers for any kind of loao
on the farm. This can have slant
ing, Slated front and rear which
makes convenient rack for hauling
hay or fodder and does not lessen iti
convenience for other uses. Now is
the time to buy such things and have
them ready for use, though this kind
of wagon is an everyday necessity,
practically.

Look Years Younserl Try crandma's
Recipe OF Sage and usshur and
Nobody viii Know.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff. itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which Is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui

large bottle for about so cents. Every.
body uses this old, famous recipe, be.

you darkened your hair, as 1t does it
so naturally and evenly. You dampen
. sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time: by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two. your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.

vestigation by skilled pathologists as
this. Possibly no disease which has
appeared since the forties presents a
greater menace to potato culture. The
literature on leaf-roll has become so
voluminous that few will undertake to
peruse all the contributions.
Leaf-roll is a disease characterized
by an upward rolling of the leaves, by
a decreased yield of tubers, and by
transmission of the diseased condi-
ton through ubers planted. Its symp-
toms vary so mpch in detail that they
can be most clearly outlined by sepa-
rate treatment
The rolling of the leaves is the most
constant and conspicuous symptom Of
this disease. The leaflets curl or roll
upward on their midrib, ofteli assum-
ing nearly tabular shape, and giving
plant a starving appearance. This
rolling is sometimes restricted to the
upper leaves, while in other cases all
or nearly all of the leaves may exhibit
It. This type of roll is distinct from
the curly-dwarf condition, but very
similar roll may be induced by other
causes.
The color of the foliage changes
with the advent of leaf-roll. but these
color symptoms vary greatly, from
cases where the leaves assume an un-
healthy. light-green color to those
marked by pronounced yellowish, red
dish or purplish tints.
The effect of leaf-roll on the plant
is to check development. There is a
lessening or cessation of growth. The
shoots remain short and the leaves
