CROPS FOR MEAT PRODUCTION

When the farmer does not pro-
vide crops enough to fatten his hogs
without going in the crib to feed MS
main crop Of corn up he is commit
ing crime against himself ana
against his plow team. There are SO
many crops to grow that will fatten
hogs so cheaply and with so little
expense that there seems to be nc
excuse to not literally provide the
pigs with plenty grazing in the fal,
months when he likes to grow an1

Soy beans can be planted now and

should be used, say about zoe pounds

After the hogs have had the run

MISS WILLIAMS AND HER CAM.
ING CLUB WORK.

We show in this issue picture o.
Miss Martha Williams, st. Tammany
Canning Club Agent, and some of her
club members. This picture was
made in Abita Springs during the
school rally. The girls were giving
a demonstration in canning straw
berries. Girls and strawberries are
two crops that st. Tammany can
boast of and correctly say that as far
as quality is concerned no parish in
the State can exceed her. The cam
ing club has done much to lower the
cost of living on the farm. 1t has
caused people to save fruits and veg
etables for winters day that woulf
have otherwise gone to waste. Be
sides this, the girls can find ready
sale for all the canned goods they
do not need at home. 1t is sure
way for the girl to earn some extr;
pin money" with which to buy some
article she has been longing for for
months.
All should encourage this grand
work as it is not only 7ducating blu
economical.

Joseph Hebert Bound Over on Com plaint of Mrs. Ellen Perry-Latter Not Living With Husband.


 Charged with both rape and adultery, Joseph Hebert, age about 45, of Will iamsville, declined to plead in the town court Monday morning, when present ed before Judge w. F. Woodward. A plea of not guilty was entered for him and the hearing proceeded with. Prob able cause was found for holding him for trial at the next term of the Wind ham county superior court having of bail required for his release was fixed at $500. As he could not fur nish the amount of bail, he was taken to the jail at Brooklyn.

DRINK A GLASS
 OF REAL HOT WATER
 BEFORE BREAKFAST. Says we will both look and feel clean, sweet and fresh
 and avoid illness.

Sanitary science has of late made rapid strides with results that are of untold blessing to humanity. The lat sst application of it's untiring research is the recommendation that it is as necessary to attend to internal santa tion of the drainage system of the human body as it is to the drains of lhe house.
 Those of us who are accustomed to Feel dull and heavy when we arise, splitting headache, stuffy from cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stem ach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous stagnant matter.
 Everyone whether ailing. sick or well, should, each morning before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaSpoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stom- ach, liver. and bowels the previous days indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonderfully in figorating. It cleans out all the sour lamentations, gases, waste and acidfty and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the phosphated hot water is quietly extracting large vol ume of water from the blood and get ting ready for thorough flushing of all the inside organs.
 The millions of people who are both- cred with constipation, bilious spells, stomach trouble, rheumatic stiffness; others who have sallow skins, blood disorders and sickly complexions are urged to get a quarter pound of lime itone phosphate from the drug stroe This will cost very little, but is suff1- Aent to make anyone a pronounced rEAnk on the subject of internal san- Ration
