A Drunkard's Plea. Tells HoD
He Was Released from the
Bondage of Alcoholic Slavery

One woman who used this pre-
scription on her husband says: at is
going on the fourth week since he
has touched a drop of anything in the
form of liquor or used tobacco of
any kind. lie seems already like n
different man. Tescum has gained a
wonderful enthusiast in me. re-
gard it as a Godsend. Just think, /
have never seen my husband sober
for more than As hours in years and
now it is going on one month since he
had his last drink"
Another one gratefully writes: 81
have used tescum powders on my hus-
band and find it one of the greatest
cures in this world. He hasn't taken
drink for almost five weeks and
says he never will. My home does not
seem like the same place and life
seems worth living. l hope thous-
ands gain what l have. This has
been a good new year for me without
drink in my home"
NOTE - A leading druggist when
shown the above article said: Yes,
tescum Is a very remarkable remedy
for the drink habit. 1t is harmless,
wonderfully effective and is having
an enormous sale. l advise every one
who wishes to destroy the liquor
habit to give it trial" 1t is sold
in this city by j. Nelson Clark and al
other first-class druggists.

Leading Druggists Guarantee Results

Lending Druggists Guarantee Results
My heart bleeds for every drunk
ard. and | sincerely wish l could meet
them face to face and tell them how
was saved from the clutches of the
demon drink. If this were possible
thousa nds could be saved from drunk
ards graves. Yes. my appetite for
drink was completely destroyed Here
is the prescription that saved me. One
prepared tescum powder twice q day
in coffee, tea, or any liquid. Almost
everything had been tried on me
without results, so don't experiment
with anything but tescum powders.
then you will not be disappointed.
Since the powder is colorless, odor-
less and tasteless IL can be given
secretly. 1t is intended to destroy the
terrible craving. The results are so
startling that druggists are refund
ing the money If 1t fails. (See money
refund guarantee, which druggists
are authorized to give when above
prescription is filled.) There is alb
solutely no risk on your part. so you
have everything to gain and nothing
TO lose. Mothers and sisters are
now able to cure their loved ones Of
this terrible habit with no expense
il 1t fails. If druggists were not
confident of success they could not
afford to make such an offer. Have
the prescription filled to-day before
YOU forget it.

Prepare For Drive
Evidences accumulated that Cen

offensive drive on large scale along
the Aisne and Champagne fronts.
on Monday brilliant series of at
tacks won for the French all the
important observation posts in the
Moronvillieres region in the Cham
pagne, and last evening a similar
operation was carried out on the
high ground in the Craonne region,
where everyone of the observation
points dominating the Ailette valley
are now in French possession.
The vantage ground thus won will

The Italian offensive in the Gorilla
region has entered one of the phases
of comparative quiet common to
such movements. The new italian
positions are being firmly held
against Austrian counter attacks.
Meanwhile the Italian forces on the
Teutonic front are dealing with the
attacks by way of diversion launched
in that sector by the Austrians. Yes

BUCKwHEAT GROWING URGED
AS AID TO POOR WHEAT CROP

The partial failure of the wheat
crop and the natural adaptability of
buckwheat to sections with short
growing seasons should make its use
more universal at this time.
Ruckwheat is very sensitive to
both !ow and high temperature. With
cool nights and a fair supply of
moisture it will withstand consid-
cradle heat. This quality especially
adapts il 10 high mountain eleva-
tions.
While light. well-drained. loamy
soils are usually considered best for
buckwheat, it is not at all eXacting
in its soil requirements. On fertile.
poorly cultivated lands it produces
better crops than any other grain,
but II responds with greatly in
creased yields to good treatment.
Soil acidity does not seem to hinder
its growth. Rich soils. especially
those well supplied with nitrogen.
are unsuitable. They tend to cause
lodging. Lodged buckwheat seldom
RECEIVERS.
Buckwheat may be sown on left
over land. on meadow, or where
another crop has failed. or on land
too poor for other crops. Prepare
the seed-bed as thoroughly as for
wheat, oats or corn.
and in Northern Pennsylvania, the
best seeding time is between June
10 and 25. In southern and south
eastern Pennsylvania seeding may
he done as late as the middle of
July. On fertile soil, fertilization
will not pay. At the present price
of fertilizers. 200 to 800 pounds of
acid phosphate to the acre is rec
commended for soil poor to medium
in fertility.
on poor land stable manure gives
excellent results, but the manure
can usually be used to much better
advantage on another crop. The fer
tilizer may be applied broadcast or
drilled in with the seed.
The rate of seeding varies from
three to five pecks, four pecks being
the usual amount. IL may be broad
cast and narrowed in. or planted
with the grain drill the same as
wheat. Where it is possible the lat
ter method Is most satisfactory and
requires less seed. Depth of plant
ing should be between one and two
inches.
Three arieties-Japanese, Silver
Hull and Common Gray---are COM
monty grown. The Japanese is usu-
ally considered the best yielder.

SUMMER sILAGE CROPS

Dairy farmers who have not al
ready made preparations for tiding
cows over the period of insufficient
pastures in late summer and fall.
should not forget that many cows
went nearly dry last July and August.
Such conditions may be avoided and
incidentally the dairyman's bank ac-
count strengthened by little fore
thought.
Maintaining the milk flow during
the period of insufficient pasture
may be accomplished by feeding ad-
ditional grain. feeding soiling crops
and by feeding silage.
Feeding soiling crops in addition
to the pasture secured by the cows
help maintain the milk flow at mod
crate cost. The objection TO this
method is the labor and planning
necessary in planting and cutting
such crops at the proper time. Un-
less one has some silage from last
years feeding, soiling crops offer the
most feasible feeding plan for the
coming summer.
The best, cheapest and most prac-
teal way to tide over short pastures
is to have an ample supply of corn
silage. Plan to have enough left over
from winter feeding to take care of
the short pasture period. This in
wolves less labor than soiling crops
and the feed is handy and ready for
use whenever needed.
The summer silo should be rather
narrow in diameter so that the silage
may be fed at the rate of three
inches daily to prevent spelling.
Begin now to plant for a corn
acreage sufficient to insure silage for
next summers feeding. 1t will keep
n q
amount on top. Put up an extra silo
if needed. In the meantime plant
some soiIing crops for use this sum-

Navy Shells Made Prior
to.l9O0 Are Faulty

Washington. May "a report of
Rear Admiral Earle, chief Of the
Bureau of Ordnance, on premature
explosions of shells on the armed
American liners, st. Louis, ST. Paul
and Mongolia. made public last
night by Secretary Daniels, shows
that the bureau has reached the con-
clusion that siX-inch shells made
prior to 1900 are not to be trusted
and that all such ordance has been
withdrawn from botn naval and
merchant ships.
The report does not take UP the
accident on the Mongolia, which re-
suited in the death of two Red Cross
nurses enroute to Europe, the in
vestiSating board in that case not
having completed its work. Pre-
liminary statements have attributed
this tragedy to tho unprecedented
action of a powder retainer cap,
which struck the water in a peculiar
manner and was detected back
aboard the vessel at point nearly
200 feet from the gun.

THE CONTROL OF WEEDS

The weed problem is as old as
agriculture. Because weeds have al
ways been with us the farmer fire.
quently neglects them, allowing
them to occupy needed space and
rob the soil of nutrition which
should go to more useful plants. The
following suggestions. all suited to
Pennsylvania conditions. may aid in
holding in check this robber crop:
1. Weeds with creeping, under
ground rootstocks. such as Canada
Thistle. and Horse Nettle, should
have their green tissue constantly
cut back, a process which will even
tually starve out the rootstock,
.. Sow clean seed. The current
season will witness u great demand
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1917-05-23

for seed AS a result much inferior
seed will be sold on the market, and
unless the farmer is careful many
weeds may be introduced in poor
seed.
3. Whenever possible, particularly
in the pasture, allow sneep to Craze
the weeds, especially before seeding.
1t is profitable to turn weeds into
wool and mutton. Hogs are often
useful in grazing weeds in which the
underground growth is the obnoX-
ious feature.
4. If possible, prevent weeds from
going to seed. Now. or even hand
pick, before seeds mature. This is
more profitable than allowing weed
seeds to contaminate the soil for
years to come. Certain weed seeds
