Potato Cultivation as follows.
Seed needs to be of medium size

below the level of the field and
covered but lightly and the seed
18 inches in the row.
Cultivation is done with har-
row and later with the five tooth
cultivator. A clover sod is prefer

turned down the next spring in
time for the planting of the pota-
toes. Manure is applied prefer
ably 18 months previous to the
planting. Mr.. Geo. A. Harris

NUMBER Is
DOCTOR AND PATIENT.
Little Talks 90 Health and Hygiene by
Samuel G. Dixon, NJ. D., IL. D.,
Commissioner of Health.


Do you know how to use a
doctor? When you are ill you
send for him of course. He has
an automobile to 90 to see people
who wait so long before seeking
his advice that he must go to
them. He begins by asking all
sorts of questions which may
seem to have little to do with the
matter in hand.
Suppose you did go to a ban
quet eat and perhaps drink a
little more than usual. Perhaps
you have been working extra
long hours at the office and nat
urally you haven't had time to
take exercise. Maybe you have
neglected yourself a trife. The
important thing is, that you are
sick and tits the Doctors business
to give you medicine that will
right all this promptly. You
haven't time to stay in bed and
he knows it. Therefore, the
thing for him to do is to give
you teaspoonful of something
three times day before meals
that will set everything straight
forthwith. This is an ordinary
mans conception of a Doctors
duty to his patient.
Now as to the Doctors side of
it. When he comes to see a
patient he probably thinks, after
asking questions; here is a man
who works hard, he eats too fast
and too much, neglects to exer-
else, is careless about his daily
habits, feels little fatigued and
resorts to a nip two or three
times day to buck himself up"
his digestive organs are over
worked and what he needs is a
change of habit and modification
of his method of living. A little
rest if / insist upon it, a tonic
and some restriction of his diet
for few. days, will pull him
through this spell. H will
probably take the medicine have
prescribed but the advice he will
forget in a week. That's the
doctors side of the case.
Then of course there is the
man or woman who is almost
certain that something is wrong
with them physically. Some of
the bodily functions are not right
and they know it but they keep
on because they haven't time
to be sick. F" Finally they must
seek advice and then the doctor
discovers that there is some pro-
found organic disturbance that
may have gone so far that he is
helpless to aid.
If you are going to build a
house you call in an architect
who acts as your adviser, makes
your plans and sees that they are
carried out. If you are going
into business deal, your lawyer
draws up the contract, sees that
your interests are protected and
advises you how to proceed.
But your doctor you call in when
the damage is done and you ex-
pect him to give you something
in a bottle that will undo the
results of weeks, months or years
of indiscretion.

The McConnellsburg Institute.

The McC0nnellSbnfg Institute.
The following details of the
work of the Farmers Institute
held in McConnellsburg last week
has been handed US for publica-
ton by the secretary, Mr.. W. G.
Patterson.
The Farmers Institute was
opened at 2 P. M. The session
was inaugurated by divine SER
vices conducted by Rev. j. L.
Yearick, thus recognizing an ov-
er ruling Providence in all the
affairs of life. Rev. Edward
Jackson gave cordial and whole
some address of welcome. Mr..
]. T. Campbell as leader of the
corps of Institute lecturers re-
sponded with a statement of
some of the difficulties that con-
front the farmers of Pennsylva-
MIA, and then introduced the 9TH
er lecturers of the course, Mr..
j. Stewart Groupe occupied the
first period in a talk on "Twen-
ty years experience with Hogs"
Sometime was spent on discuss
ing the difficulties that confront
the hog raisers, as we'll as some
Of the mistakes many farmers

In summer a clover past u e
should supplement the grain ra-
ton. AS an aid to sanitation a
mixture of charcoal ashes black
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS and sulphur
should be provided. Large hogs
have no grain ration except corn.
Mr.. L. o. Van Noy occupied
the next period, giving his ex-
perience with milking machines.
The speakers opinion ofsuch ma
chimes is that they should not be
used except where a large herd
of cows is kept.
Wednesday evening session
opened with Mr.. Campbells' story
of Woodbine Farm. This is the
story of Mr.. Campbelfs own life
as a farmer with out money and
only a mortgaed farm to draw a
living from. The speaker en-
phasized the value of the farm
for building a fortune as well as
a character. Mrs. Evelyn Binz
was then introduced and gave an
interesting talk on the economic
and civic phases of women's
lives. Mr.. Van Noy gave his
talk on Things worth While. y
Much of the speakers time was
spent in telling the farmers how
other big businesses are conduct
ed and how these organizations
work against the interests of the
farmers; and as dairying is one
of the most profitable lines of
farming. it was shown that this
line of farming is doomed unless
the farmers unite to keep the

MANkATO HUNTERS SUFFER
FIRE LOSS.

Fire destroyed one of the prettiest
hunters retreats at Swan Lake Tuesday
OF last week, when the lodge owned by
the Mankato Hunters Club, four miles
north of CORTLAND burned to the
ground. The building and contents
were totally destroyed, entailing loss
of several thousand dollars. No in
surance could be carried on the building,
because it was not occupied during the
winter months.
The lodge was located near the Martin
Gieseke farm and the fire was discovered
by Mrs. Gieseke. Neighbors tried to
check the flames, but failed. The lodge
contained eleven hunting boats and
equipment, four double beds, two single
cots, large number of decoys, complete
cooking outfit, and other furnishings. It
is not known how the fire originated, but
it may have been accidentally set bv
someone around the premises, either out
side or inside of the building.

The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trouble,
because we eat too much and all our food
is rich. Our blood is filed with uric
acid which the kidneys strive to filter
out, they weaken from overwork, become
sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and
the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and a general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like Jumps of

cloudy, full of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night; if you suffer with sick
headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid
stomach, or you have rheumatism when
the weather is bad, get from your phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in q glass of
water before breakfast for q few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the acid
OF grapes and lemon juice, combined with

to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys;

no longer is source of irritation, thus
