ditiOns known.
The subjects of complaints pc
culiar to women is a delicate one,
but it is a plain duty to let these
sufferers know that most Of the
arrangements from which they
suffer are due principally to nerv-
Gus debility.
1t is not uncommon to hear a
woman say: 81 am all run down,
so nervous and weak" She is
suffering from the modern NAL
righteousness. Many suf-
fering women, influenced by
shrinking modesty, have borne
this grievous condition without
complaint rather than make a
personal appeal.
Such women, and they are a
legion in every community, suf-
fer from headaches, backaches,
loss of appetite, and sleepless-
ness. Their spirits are not the
normally happy ones of their
more fortunate sisters. Often,
too, there are spells of nausea,
weakness or even fainting that
makes them feel insecure and to
wonder when they will be en-
barrassed or even in danger, be-
cause of their condition.
To get the seat of most troub-
les the nerves must be strength
ened. Nearly all functional
weakness and disorders can be
directly traced to weak nerves
and depleted vitality.

tive tonic, was designed tC

DEMONSTRATORS WILL
VISIT MISSOURI FARMS
Permanent Farmers 0rganiza-
ton Can Receive Aid This
Spring.


Are you planning any expert
mental or demonstration work
on your farm this spring to find
the best and most economical
and profitable ways of working
and managing it? If so, you
had better ask the Agricultural
Extension Service of the Uni
versity Of Missouri at Columbia
to send a demonstration to visit
you.
The College of Agriculture rec
ognizes that example is a better
teacher than precept and has ar
ranged for demonstrators to
visit communities desiring to
carry on demonstration work.
Only work that has passed the
experimental stage and is known
to be of practical value will be
given. The demonstration will
visit only communities where
permanent farmers organiza-
lions have been formed.
A representative of the college
Of Agriculture will visit the Co
operator as often as conditions
demand. His visits will be at
least once a year, and %instruc-
ton will be furnished for con-
Quoting the Investigations and
experiments.
The man for whom the dem
Onstrations are being given will
be expected to keep simple re-
cords of his work, so that a
statement can be made as to its
value and efficiency, to permit
a meeting of neighbors on his
farm and to provide transporta.

Spray Your Apple Trees.

summer spraying is essential
in the production of first class
apples. Unsprayed fruit is u
sually scabby and very often
shows injury from coddling
moth or curculio. Wormy or
diseased fruit has poor keeping
qualities. Thus in order to have
fresh apples during winter
months it is necessary to prac-
tice summer spraying.
Spraying consists of applying
to the growing fruit and leaves
some substance which will
either kill or prevent the growth
of the insects and disease spores.
Some form Of arsenic is used to
kill the insects, lead arsenic
being the most common form.
1t may be purchased at local
drug stores and costs from ten
to twenty-five cents a pound.
Sulphur is very effective in pre-
venting the development of apple
scab and other fungus diseases
since disease spores can not
develop in its presence. This
substance in the form of con-
centrated lime sulphur may be
purchased from companies hand
ling spray supplies and in small
lots will cost about fifteen cents
per gallon.
The spraying schedule recon-
mended on the basis of the tests
and experience of the Missouri
Agricultural Experiment Station
calls for three sprays during the
season. The first to be most
=. effective against the apple scab
should have been applied just
before the blossoms opened. This
spray of lime sulphur at the rate
of three gallons of commercial
mixture to 100 gallons of water
is not very necessary in dry sea-
sons because scab can develop
only during damp weather.
The second spray applied Just
, after the blossoms fall is most
important and should be applied
even tho the first was not. II
is made by mixing three gallons
=, of commercial lime sulphur anC
five pounds lead arsenate paste
8 with one hundred gallons Of
water. Since the lead arsenatC
and the lime sulphur are placed
= in the same solution, one spray.
:, ing is sufficient to apply both in
= stances. This spray serves az
a further protection against thu
scab but its greatest valu,
comes thru its effect upon tn,
/ codling moth and curcilio. TIL,
t. sting of the curcilio causes ap
y pies to grow in deformed shapes
y and altho this may not material

BLIND STAGCERS CAUSES
MUCH LOSS OF STOCK

The disease Of horses and mules,
blind-staggers, so-cailcd, is known by
Il number of names, such as menin-
Gitis, cerebro-spinal meningitis, and
labor, forage poisoning, seems to be
quite prevalent at the present time
throughout Louisiana, as well as
some Of the other states, and is caus-
ing considerable loss among these
animals.
Unfortunately it is a very fatal
allmeGt when once it attacks the ami
nal, but on the other hand it is one
that may be prevented If only own
ers were little more familiar with
it, Those who have had to do with
the disease have observed that eli
matte conditions seem to play an i'm
portant part in its occurrence and it
seems most prevalent during seasons
Of sunshine and showers in the warm
parts of the year which are favorable
to the development Of vegetable, and
to molds or fungi of different kinds,
ture.
Such climatic conditions we have
spoken of seems to have been preva-
lent locally, at least, if not generally
throughout the state, and the ami
mails attacked are usually those that
have been grazing on good pastures,
but where the grasses have been at
tackled by some of the numerous
fungi. Numerous Investigations have
been made to try to discover the ac-
tual cause Of this ailment, as it has
been thought possible that it might
be Of some bacterial nature How
ever, nothing absolutely definite has
been arrived at, SO far, along this
line of work However, be this as it
may, there seems little question that
the disease is in some way associated
with the feeding of moldy grain, es-
pecially during the winter season,
and Of blighted grasses during the
summer, under climatic conditions
such as we have alluded to, as a COM
plete change of feed will usually
stop the disease right away.
And while the trouble might be
with the blighted grasses at the pres
ent time, it may, later on, be with
the corn which has been grown dur
ing the hot, showery weather, and
fed from the crib in a moldy state.
Following this short explanation,
we would urgently warn horse and
mule owners to keep their animals
from grazing on long, luxuriant pas
lures where there is any chance of |
blight or mold, and feed them on
good, clean hay for the present.
A large percentage of the ami
mails attacked die, and cures are
not to be depended upon. But the
lieease may be prevented by elimi-
mating the cause, that is keeping the
away from the blighted pas
lures, and later, cutting out the i
moldy corn when fed from the crib.

TALKED IN COURT As DAYS

He said he was not sure whether he

could not blame himself. He had
more than fifty thousand questions
and answers to go through, five
thousand pages Of printed evidence,
and 256 exhibits. In reading, noting

great speech was bond to provoke a
great deal of criticism, because Of
its length. But, having listened to
every word Of that speech, he was
