CLEANING UP FIELD STONES
Problem Of Vital Importance to Many
Farmers-Orag Made Along Lines
Shown Is Practicable.

How to get rid of surplus field
stones with the least labor is a prob
lem of vital interest to many farmers.
While clearing up a stony farm we
have tried out many ways of handling
the work. At one time we built a spe-
cial tool for gathering up small stones,
says writer in Rural New Yorker. 1t
was. in effect, an "A" drag. with the
wide opening ahead. The stones and
clods are left in windrows about seven
feet apart. When hauling away the
windrows the wagons can be loaded
from both sides. A few years ago we
cleared an excessively stony field Of
seven acres at cost of s35 for the
time OF the men employed. AS made
by us the tool was not entirely salts
factory: but the idea seems so well

"Bagging down behind" is usually
caused by the retention of eggs in the
oviduct, followed by inflammation and
tumor. When hens get too fat, eggs
are often broken in the passage, and
cause the same disorder. The tumors
sometimes grow to enormous size,
weighing the hen down. The presence
of a male bird when a hen is in such

EASY TO DARkEN

Try this! Brush Sage Tea and Sulphur
Compound through your hair, tax
ing one strand at a time.

When you darken your hair with
Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell,
because it S done so naturally, so even
~. Preparing this mixture, though, at
home is mussy and troublesome. For
80 cents you can buy at any drug store
the ready-to-use preparation, improved
by the addition of other ingredients,
called Wyeth s Sage and Sulphur Com
pound. You just dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time. B. morning all gray
hair disappears, and, after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully darkened, glossy and lux
uriant.
Gray, faded hair, though no dis
grace, is a sign of old age, and as we
all desire q youthful and attractive
appearance, get busy at once with
Wyeth S Sage and Sulphur Compound
and look years younger. This ready
to-use preparation is a delightful tot
let requisite and not a medicine. II
