GUARD YOUR FAMILY

PERUNA protects the family
against coughs, colds, catarrh,
bronchitis, catarrh of the stomach,
liver and kidneys. 1t is just as
sure to relieve a case of catarrh Of
the bowels as it is a case of catarrh
of the head.
Anyone suffering from catarrh,
severe or mild, acute or chronic, in
any organ or part of the human
body, should at once get bottle of
PERUNA.
AS soon as the value of PERuNA
is fully appreciated in every house
hold, both as a preventive and
relief from catarrhal affections,
tens of thousands of lives will be
saved and hundreds of thousands
of chronic lingering cases will be
prevented. PERUNA, indeed, is a
household safeguard.
A course of PERUNA never fails
to bring relief i'll such cases, since
there is no remedy like it, as
thousands of people have testified.
Peruna Tablets are now available
I'm convenient tins. Easy 10 take.

spraying of apples and potatoes comes
in late May, June and July, and is
likely to interfere with other work. 1t
is rather bothersome unless you study
the matter carefully and order all the
machinery and spraying material be-
forehand. Probably you never did any
spraying, and when you start in at the
Job, you will make mistakes which will
disgust you.
In Nebraska they sprayed total
of $500 trees for four years. Other
trees in the same orchard were not
sprayed. The result was an increase
of two bushels per tree in favor of
those sprayed. The product from the
average unsprayed tree sold for 81
cents, while that Of the sprayed trees
brought $2.35. Spraying in the aver
age year in Nebraska seems to in
crease the value of the apple crop SIT
on the average for each acre. In 9th
er words, the profits of one years
spraying would pay not only for the
spraying materials, but also for the
spraying machinery.
The Kansas experiment station has
found that spraying increased the yield
per tree by four bushels, worth $1.62.
In Missouri, q big orchardist sprayed
100 OF his trees and left $500 Of them
unsprayed. He claimed that he got
more from his 100 sprayed trees than
he did from the $500 unsprayed
Apples are sprayed chiefly to keep
worms, scab, blotch and rot away.
Lead arsenate kills worms, and lime
sulphur solution prevents the growth
of rot, scab and blotches. To keep
these pests and diseases away, give
four sprayings, as follows:
1. in the spring, when the pink is
just appearing in the clusters of bios

one and half gallons Of commercial

chine, and go over every tree, seeing
that all the leaves are coated with
fine spray mist The ordinary fifteen

the most important to keep worms
out of apples. a moth lays worm eggs
in the blossom end of the young ap-
pie. These eggs hatch into small
worms, which eat their way through
this end of the apple into the inside.
The object of the spraying is to put
some of the poison spray into the bios
som end OF each little green apple.
You will notice that this end of the
mediately after the blossom falls,
these are spread out much in the form
of blossom. But a few days later
they turn inward. It is very impor
tant that the spraying be done while
they are still turned outward. If it is
done after they nave started to turn
inward, it is impossible to get much
Of the spray in where the worms will
eat it. Since young apples point up
ward, the spraying, so far as posi-
BILE, should be done from above, so
that the spray mist will shoot down
ward straight into the blossom ends.
So far as worms are concerned, thor
ough spraying given just after the
blossoms have fallen is worth more
than all Of the other three sprayings.
In fact, in some regions where the
worm Of the codling moth is the chief
enemy Of apples, they give only this
single spray, the one just after the
blossoms have fallen Off
3. Spray ten to twenty days after
the blossoms have fallen, with the
same mixture as for one and two. This
catches a few Of the worms after they
have Matched, and the lime sulphur
put on at this time is a great help in
preventing blotch, rot and scab
4. The last spraying is given about
ten weeks after the blossoms have
fallen. At this time the second brood

Ohio State Univ ersIty)
Fowls will keep themselves free
from vermin during the winter months
if given a convenient place to dust.
A box 80 inches square and IL inches
deep may be built in one corner of
the pen or such box may be made
with legs so as to raise it 16 inches off
Of the floor.
Almost any fine, dry powder will
make good busting material. The par
ticles should be fine enough SO that
they will choke up the breathing pores
of the parasites which live on the
fowls body.
Equal parts Of loan, sand and sift-
ed coal ashes, to which has been added
a little kerosene oil and the whole
thoroughly mixed, is often used for
the dust.

Every year more people wish to
learn to spray. Sometimes they want
to keep the worms out of apples; or
perhaps their potatoes have had bugs
on them, or have died of blight
Most of your neighbors know moth

country is becoming mor6 settled up,
the birds are being killed off, and the
insects are getting more plentiful.
If you have more than half-acre
Of orchard, or an acre of potatoes, it
will almost certainly pay to spray. OF

Demand for copper and bronze in
Germany has resulted in an unique
kind Of contraband traffic. 1t is traffic
in money itself and includes all coins
which have in their composition an ap-
preciable quantity Of those metals
necessary to the manufacture of NUM-
tons. Germany needs copper so bad
ly for war purposes that she has long
since used up whatever copper money
she may have had, as well as her
nickel money, replacing the two by
iron coins At the present time she
is actually paying gold for copper
money delivered to her from her neigh
bors An immense contraband traffic
in money has been going on for the
last four months, so immense that
there are hardly any copper or bronze
coins left in Belgium, France. Italy
or Spain. 1t appears that this copper
drainage has been effected principally
through neutral Switzerland, where
the people, with much Of their normal
commerce cut off, must make a living
as best they can.
