DAIRY FARMER HAS
GAINED 30 POUNDS
Declares He Now Eats Better, Sleeps
Better and Feels Better in Every
Way Since Taking Tanlac.

Everybody in Columbia, Tenn,
knows f. c. McGavock, who owns
and operates u large dairy business
in that city.
IF there aver was a believer in
Tanlac," said K. NJ. Smiser, the we'll
known Columbia, Tenn, druggist, at
is Mr.. McGavock, as he talks about it
all the time. But he has a right to
talk, as no medicine has ever helped
any as much as Tanlac has help
ed him. He really does not look
like the same man" Here is Mr..
McGavock's statement:
Il have now taken five bottles of
Tanlac and have gained thirty
pounds. If you don't believe it,
right here ! am, come and look at
me. | don't know what my trouble
was, but | was all run down and was
unfit for work. ! think, though, it
must have been my stomach, as | had

agree with me. ] was also nervous
and could not sleep. | just kept 60
ing down hill and losing weight right
along, and nothing did me any good
until Smiser, the druggist, told me
about Tanlac.
Il tried it on his recommendation
and it helped me from the first few
doses. The medicine seemed to take
hold right at once, and | began to eat
better, sleep better and feel better
right from the start. If anybody
wants to know what / think of Tan
lac, just tell them to come and see
me. | am right here in Columbia.
Tanlac has simply made u new man
of me and | expect to tell all my
friends about what it mas done in my
case"
Referring to the above statement.
G. F. Willis, Southern distributor of
Tanlac, said:
"Tanlac is without exception the
greatest medicine of its kind on the
American market today. The ex-
IRENE popularity of Tanlac can only
be accounted for by the extraordi-
nary merit of the medicine. The
system, besides being purified, is

NO NEED FOR R

The minister had to leave home on
a long preaching tour. Just before
leaving he called his family around
him to say goodbye. When he came
to Bobby, he said:
"Old man, l want you to be a good
boy and take care of your mother"
Bobby promised. All day long he
looked prenaturally grave under the
heavy responsibility thus suddenly
assumed. When night came and he
was called to his prayers the young
guardian said:
Oh, Lord, bless father, and broth
er Tom, and sister Alice. and aunt
May, and the little Jones boys, and
me, but you needn't trouble about
mother, for 1 am going to look after
her."-Chicago Herald.

kill the bacteria germs. The acidity
can be corrected by proper drainage
and the application of lime, either
in the form of lime rock or slaked
lime.
Responds to fertilizers-Crimson

poor soils, and to obtain good results
on such soils it is necessary to apply
either barnyard manure or
cial fertilizers. Barnyard manure
will give much better and quicker
than commercial fertilizers.
as it hastens the growth of the young
plants and makes them more vigor-
GUS. This may probably be account
ed for by the fact that the manure
aids the growth of the bacteria germs
and gives early incubation. The
should be applied some time
before the clover is planted, and
should be thoroughly worked into the
soil. If manure is scarce, an appli-
cation of a mixture of 300 pounds
of equal parts of cottonseed meal
and acid phosphate at the time of
planting will give good results.
Proper seeding is important-The
usual method of planting crimson
clover is to broadcast the seed eth
er by hand or with a small seeder,
to cover with a smoothing harrow,
and to roll with a corrugated roller,
The seed should be covered shallow,
not over one inch deep. If a good
stand is secured early in the season,
some light grazing may be had from
the crop before cold weather, this
at the same time being beneficial in
that the stooling of the plants will
be heavier. Calves, pigs and sheep
can be grazed on the clover during
dry weather in the winter and early
spring, but cows and horses should
not be allowed on the crop as they
will injure it.

TO GROW CRIMSON CLOVER
SUCCESSFULLY

Get good Seed.
Prepare a thorough seed bed.
lnoculate the soil.
Use fertilizers j~udiciously.
incubation for crimson clover is
essential-It is absolutely necessary
to i%noculate before the clover will
grow. If red, white, alsike, or hop
clover has been growing successfully
on the soil, no further incubation
will be necessary since these clovers
inoculate for crimson clover. The
surest method of incubation is to
broadcast on the land several hun
dred pounds of soil, anywhere from
200 to 1000 pounds per acre, from
a crimson clover field or a field where
n of the above mentioned ~clovers
has been growing. For this pur-
pose the first two or four inches of
soil should be used, and this soil
should be spread and narrowed in
before the sun dries it and kills the
bacteria.
If only a small mount of soil can
be obtained, it will be best to use the
glue method of i~oculation. Dissolve
n pound of common glue in one
gallon of water by boiling, and add
enough cold water to reduce the tenn
perature to about 140 degrees F.
Put the seed which are to be inocu-
lated into a sack, dip the sack into
the solution and let it remain until
thoroughly saturated, remove imme-
diately, and place the seed on a floor
or other convenient place for mix
ing. Mix the moistened seed with
inoculated soil obtained from a field
where the clover has been grown
successfully at the rate of u pound
of soil to l pound of seed. The glue
will hold enough of the inoculated
soil to supply the roots of the plants
the necessary bacteria. 1t re-
quires from four to five quarts of the
glue solution to moisten n bushel
of crimson clover seed. Remember
to use the same precautions with in
oculated seed as with inoculated soil
is, do not expose to the sun or
allow to dry out before using.
If inoculated soil cannot be OBJ
artificial incubation may be
had by the use of prepared cultures.
These cultures may be secured from
the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture, Washington, D. c., or from any

HOW TO GROW
CRIMSON CLOVER
by J. R. Kicks, of the A. & M. Col
lege.)

(By J. R. Kicks, of the A. & M. Col
lege.)
In re%novating a stale soil, rebuild
! ing a worn out soil, or in making a
good soil better there is no crop bet
ter suited to the purpose than GRIM
son clover. 1t makes its growth and
is out Of the way for the regular
field crops, and when plowed under
, the average crimson clover crop fur
nshes as much plant food to the acre
las eight tons of good barnyard ma
nure.
From tests made at this station
where the clover was exceptionally
good, the amount of green matter
plowed under into each acre was a
little over ten tons. The chemical
analysis showed that this clover con-
tanned approximately 1870 pounds of
nitrogen, which is equivalent to the
amount of nitrogen in a ton of cot
tonseed meal. The cost of the seed
and planting ranges from SO to "a
per acre, and the crop will return to
the soil, when plowed under, $25 to
$50 worth of nitrogen, and will fur
nish enough grazing during the win
ter and early spring to more than
pay for the cost of planting.
In a rotation Of silage corr and
crimson clover at this station in
which the crimson clover was plowed
under in the spring, the yield of corn
was doubled in four years. The
clover is usually in full bloom about
the first week in May, when it should
be plowed under, or cut for hay, if
desired. 1t makes a good quality of
hay, and while the improvement to
the soil will be fair if the crop is
plowed under after the hay is cut,
the Improvement will be much more
rapid if the whole crop is plowed un-
der.
Calls for thorough preparation of
the soil.-Like most other crops,
crimson clover does better when a
good seed bed is prepared. The
land should be thoroughly broken
some time before planting and left
for a rain. AS soon as it is dry
enough after the rain, the surface
should be well pulverized a d
smoothed down with harrows. If the
soil is loose with but little growth
on it, such as would be the case af-
ter a crop of cowpeas is cut, the seed
bed car be prepared with a disc har-
row followed by a smoothing harrow.

corn, cotton or other interilled crops,

explained the proposals submitted to
| South and Central American diplo-
mats here last week by Sec'y Lansing
as a basis for an effective agreement
between all the republics of the
western hemisphere, mot only for
international peace of America but
the domestic peace of America"
This program as outlined by the
president proposes that all the Amer
lean nations shall:

\ petition shall be QUILTED against OF
supplies for revolutionists shipped

! Says Suggestions Practical.
These are very practical sugges-
tions," said the president, land l for
my part believe that they are going
| TO lead the way TO something that
America has prayed for for many
generation"
He said that the Monroe doctrine
always has been and always would
| be maintained by the United States
on it's own authority but that the
doctrine did not disclose what atti-
tude the United States would assume
towards other nations of the hemis-
phere. and consequently the other
nations had been distrustful of it.
Enthusiastic applause from the
delegates greeted the presidents re-
marks.

Lima, Peru, was selected Thurs
day for the next session of the con-
gress, which meets in 1921, the CEN
tennial of Peru's declaration of indie
pendence.
Delegates generally regarded the
selection of Peru and the manner in
which II came about as another evil
dence of the universal desire for
closer relations among the American
republics brought sharply to the
fore during the two weeks session
OF the congress here. The work Of
the congress has been virtually COM
pleted. The congress ends Satur-

New Instructions

The announcement from Berlin that
new and definite instructions are to
be given to German submarine COM
manders is the first positive indica-
ton of how Germany will attempt to
meet President Wilson's final demand
that she declare and effect an aband-
onment of the present methods of sub
marine warfare.
Whether the new instructions will
meet the terms of the last American
note and thus prevent a break in dip
lomatic relations can only be deter
mined by a close and careful examina-
ton.
President Wilson is represented by
those closest about him unshaken
in his determination that the issue is
not negotiable; that settlement can
not be delayed by discussion of side
issues, such as the British blockade
and retaliatory measures and that the
controversy between the countries can
proceed further in diplomacy only if
Germany effectually stops destruction
of ships without warning and takes
measures to bring her submarine op-
erations otherwise within the confines
of international law.
With declaration that such orders
have been given and evidence that they
will be carried out in good faith, the
President is willing to discuss the
conduct of submarine warfare but
only upon that basis.
Daily Kennebec journal., 1916-05-04
Wilson's Determination

The President is known to be unal-
terably determined to adhere strictly
to the position assumed by the United
States in it's demand that Germany
Immediately declare and effect an
abandonment of its present methods Of
submarine warfare.
No proposal of any kind will be ac-
cepted by the American government
it is said, unless it includes a declara
ton of intention to stop sinking peace
-ftti ships-at once. In this connection
press dispatches to the effect that new
orders to submarine commanders
would be told of in the German note
were read with interest by officials, but
comment was withheld pending the
disclosure of the nature of the inst-uc-
tions.
Col House, who discussed the sub
marine issue with German officials
while abroad for the President several

His coming to Washington was re-
garded as significant.

FALSE REPORTS
CONCERNING A
SPECIAL PEACE
FOR BULGARIA

Berlin, May 3.-(By wireless to Sayville).
"A semi-official telegram from Sofia
characterizes as untrue the reports re-
Gently circulated that Bulgaria was at
tempting to arrange separate peace.
1.-The Bulgarian telegraphic agency de-
clares untrue the report Of Geneva
newspaper that the Bulgarian minister at
Vienna, A. Tonchew. and the Bulgarian
attache for Switzerland, NJ. Tschervena-
kov, together with a Turkish delegate,
opened peace negotiations with the En-
tente," the Overseas News Agency says.
This false rumor probably originated in
the trip of NJ. Tonchew and NJ. fischer
venakov to Geneva where they had busi-
ness which was in no way connected with
war or peace
