SYRUP OF FIGS FOR
A CH|LD'S BOWELS
It is cruel to force nauseating,
harsh physic into a
sick child.

Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the dose" mother insisted
on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form Of
physic simply don't realize what they
do. The children's revolt is well-found-
ed. Their tender little "insides" are
injured by them.
II your child's stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli
cious California Syrup of Figs" It's
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
of mothers keep this harmless fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet
on the stomach, and that teaspoonfuI
given today saves a sick child tomor-
row.
Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle
OF California Syrup of Figs" which
has full directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown-ups plainly
on each bottle. Adv.

wheat. After the wheat is harvested
the clover makes a rank growth and
may be plowed under in the fall or fol.
lowing spring. In this way In each
four-year rotation there are two
legume crops to pillow under and at the
same time three grain crops to har-
vest. The rotation may be changed to
five-year one by adding an extra year
Of corn If this is desired.
If the farm is badly run down and
much organic matter and nitrogen
must be added to the soil before the
clover seeded in the wheat may be al
lowed to stand over for a crop the fol-
lowing year. The rotation will then
be as follows Corn, oats with clover
seeding, clover, wheat with sweet
clover seeding, sweet clover.
II short rotation is desired, one
that will be effective in building up a
rundown farm is the following: Corn,
rye with clover and timothy seeding,
clover and timothy. The rye is seeded
in the standing corn and the clover
and timothy seeded In the rye early in
the following spring. The rye is hogged
off and, as the clover natures, part of
it is used for hog pasture and part for
hay. The clover-timothy sod is then
turned under for corn. Under this
plan all the rye grown is left where
it is produced and all the cornstalks
cut up and worked into the soil. Fur
thermore, all the manure made by the
hogs in gathering the rye and corn is
left in the field.

Lea Bands Are Cheap.

Leg bands are very cheap. When
you sort out your pullets, band the
right leg; next year band the left leg
and the third year do not band The
fourth year dispose of hens with
band on right leg and begin over by
banding right leg. Or get celluloid
bands, using different colors for each
year. This is better than toe mark

Well boys, we did the best we could
To get ourselves place
Among the Office holding kids
We sure did make race
With might and main and auto-gas
We hustled through the land
And our best to land a job
On every speaking stand
We spent the last confounded cent
That We could get or find
On smokes and hash and ice cold
drinks
And then come out behind
That's bad enough It's true
But listen to my chin
The chaps that get the Jobs, oftlmes
Get sick OF DelnS III
Few mishaps come throughout the
land
On man or COW or horse
But what the county officers
Just have to "come across
Whv should doctor shun his job
Or lawyers, clients drop
Or any one his self-esteem
Exchange for such thin slop
Why should the brain, the heart or
soul
That animates your life
Be clogged and stifed paralyzed
In such defiling strife
Friend Wyatt Aiken's friends, the
say
Were sore from rim to hub
They used some Cole Blease ointment
And they healed it with one rub
And Blease's friends got them some
grease
Somewhat Akin to lard
Tc keep fr m dying hard
So both sides called their doctors III
To have their ills explained
And soon they both were out again
With what sense they had gained.
Then both sides took a sichly grin
At us, when we passed by
And went to guessing bout how well
They fooled us on the sly
But hold your heads, aloft my boys
Ewes front and steady gaze
And help to keep the land We love
From such polluted ways.
