RAISE MORE POULTRY
CHEAPEST MEAT


Raise more chickens. They will
produce meat cheaper than any other
animal on the farm. Il takes less
grain to produce a pound of chicken
than any other kind Of flesh, and
growth is rapid. 1t will pay every
housewife to make an earnest attempt
to raise more chickens and to save a
larger per cent of her small chickens
this year than ever before.
After the chicks are Matched they
should be placed in well covered
coop located in a dry spot with good
drainage.
Don't turn them out in rainy
weather or on sunshiny days until the
dew is off
Don't feed the chicks before they
are SO to As hours old. The first
meal should be milk or buttermilk
and one part Of hard boiled eggs

Calomel D, NANTES
a Sluggish Liver
Crashes Into Sour Bile. Making You
Sick and You Lose
DAYS Work

Calomel sahvates. It's mercury.
ealomel acts like dynamite on slug
gish liver. When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into
it, causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headaehy, consti-
pated and all knocked out, just go to
your druggist and get SO cent bottle
of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is a
harmless vegetable substitute for dan
gerous calomel. Take a spoonful and
if il doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calomel and without
making you sick, you just 90 back
and get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides
it may salivate you, while if you take
Dodson's Liver Tone you will wake up
feeling great, full of ambition and
ready for work or play. It's harm
less, pleasant and safe TO give to
children, they like it.

Mr.. Farmer it is your patriotic duty
in the present national crisis 10 RAISE
food supply sufficient to protect
YOUR family and TO produce maximum
crops on every tillable acre of iand.
Prices for all kinds Of food crops
will be high and the government is
making plans to market your surplus.
If maximum crops are TO be had,
attention must be given TO early cal-s
tivation and the proper Implements
should be used.
Remember, young plants in the netd
must have the best opportunity TO
live and grow If the largest crops are
to be obtained.
Early Cultivation Means Big Crops.
Most OF the Arkansas farms have
been titled in such manner as to rob
the soil of it's humus supply. In this
condition soils pack extremely hard
from our beating rains and crust heay-
ily after a rain followed by couple
OF days of sunshine.
Don't Allow Soil To Pack.
II the young plants are permitted
to stand in hard, packed crusted
ground 1t cannot be expected that
they will make the rapid, sturdy
growth necessary to maximum crop
production. The importance OF early
cultivation must be so apparent to

at length is unnecessary.
Use a Section Harrow.
The question then is-What is the
best implement farmer can use for
early and rapid cultivation? Our an
swer is, fifty or sixty tooth iron
section harrow. II is not an expensive
implement; it is one that is needed
on every farm at all seasons. With
a good team fifteen acres per day can
be cultivated The teeth are adjust
able so that the ground can be pull
verified with a minimum amount Of
digging that would tear up the plants
The section harrow can be used be-
fore and after the seeds are up. When
beating rain follows the planting Of
crop the harrow should be used just
az soon as the ground will pulverize.
Tins will prevent crusting, form a
mulch for the retention of moisture,
warm up the ground enable the young
plants TO come up without difficulty
and promote their rapid growth II
corn or cotton is not planted on a
high bed-a practice that should not
be followed except on badly drained
lands-the section harrow can be
safely used after the plants are we'll

corn, root and all, lifts right out.
This drug dries at once and simply
shrivels up the corn or callus without

A small bottle of freezone obtained
at any drug store will cost very little

A DIFFERENCE IN
THE INVESTMENT.
The Western Canada Farm Prof.
its Are Away in Excess.

Mr.. George Fl. Barr, Of Iowa, holds
seven sections of land In Saskatche
wan. These he has fenced and rent
ed, either for pasture or cultivation,
all pS Ting good interest on the invest.
ment.
Mr.. Barr says that farm land at
home in Iowa is, held at $3.50 per acre.
These lands are in high state of cul-
tivation, with splendid Improvements
In houses, barns, stables and silos, and
yet, the revenue returns from them are
only from two to three per cent per
annum on investment.
Last year, 1915, his half share Of
crop on a quarter section In Saskatche-
wan, wheat on new breaking, gave him
30 per cent ON the capital invested
$500 an acre. The crop yield was
80 bushels per acre. This year the
same quarter-section, sOwn to. Red
Fife on stubble gave 3,2S6 bushels. His
share, 1,643 bushels of L Northern at
$1.56 per bushel, gave him $2,563.08.
Seed, half the twine and half the
threshing bill cost him $45300. Allow.
ing a share of the expense of his an
nual inspection trip, charged to tbs
quarter-section even to $1,000, and he
has left 100000, that is 80 per cent
of the original cost of the land. Any.
one can figure up that another aver
age crop will pay, not or per cent
on investment, as in Iowa, but the
total price Of the land! Mr.. Barr says:
"That's no joke now"
Mr.. Barr was instrumental In bring
ing q number of farmers from Iowa to
Saskatchewan in 1913. He referred to
one Of them, Geo. H. Kerton, tenant
farmer in Iowa. He bought quarter
section of improved land at $1,000 an
acre, near Hanley. From proceeds Of,
crop in 1914, 1915, 1916, he has paid
for the land. Mr.. Barr asked him a
week ago: "Well, George, what shall
tell friends down home for your"
The reply was: "Tell them l shall
never go back to be tenant for any
man." Another man, Charles Haight,
realized $4,000 in cash for his, wheat
crops in 1915 and 1916.
Mr.. Barr when at home devotes
most of his time to raising and deal
ing in live stock. On his first visit Of
inspection to Saskatchewan, he real
ized the opportunity there was here
for grazing cattle. So his quarter
sections, not occupied, were fenced
and rented as pasture lands to farm
ers adjoining. His creed is: "Let na-'
ture supply the feed all summer while
cattle are growing, and then in the
fall, take them to farmsteads to be
finished for market! There is money
in it."-Advertisement.

Berlin Letter Urged Mexico to Com

Attack United states-Bern-

Washington, Mar. 1.-The Associ-
ated Press is enabled to reveal that
Germany, in planning unrestricted
submarine warfare and counting its
consequences, proposed an alliance
with Mexico and Japan to make war
on the United States, if this country
should hot remain neutral.
Japan, through Mexican mediation,
was to be urged to abandon the En-
tente Allies and join in the attack on
the United States.
Mexico, for its reward, was to re-
ceive general financial support from
Germany, reconquer Texas, New Mex
leo and Arizona-lost provinces-and
share in the victorious peace terms
Germany contemplated.
Details were left to German Min
ister Won Eckhardt in the City Of Mex
leo, who, by instructions signed by
German Foreign Minister thinner
mann, at Berlin, January 10, was di-
rected to propose the alliance with
Mexico to General Carranza and sug-
gest that Mexico seek to bring Japan
into the plot.
Bernstorff Helped Plot War.
These instructions were transmit
ted to Won Eckardt through Count
Won Bernstorff, former German am
bassador here, now on his way home
to Germany under a safe conduct OBJ
tanned from his enemies, by the coun-
try against which he was plotting war.
Germany pictured to Mexico, by
broad intimation, England and the
Entente Allies defeated, Germany and
her allies triumphant and in world
domination by the instrument of un-
restricted warfare.
America Has Direct Proof.
A copy Of Zimmermann's instruc-
tions to Won Eckardt, sent through
Won BernstOrff, is in possession of the
United States government. 1t is as
follows:
Berlin, Jan. 10, 1917.-On the 1st
Of February we intend to begin sub
marine warfare unrestricted. In spite
of this it is our intention to endeavor
to keep neutral the United States Of
America.
''If this attempt is not successful,
we propose an alliance on the follow
ing basis with Mexico: That we shall
make war together and together make
peace. We shall give general financial
support and it is understood that Mex
leo is to reconquer the lost territory
in New Mexico, Texas and Arizona.
The details are left to you for settle
ment
you are instructed to inform the
president of Mexico of the above in
the greatest confidence as soon as it
is certain that there will be an out
break of war with the United States,
and suggest that the president of
Mexico, on his own initiative, should
communicate with Japan, suggesting
adherence at once to this plan at the
same time, offer to mediate between
Germany and Japan; to please call to
the attention of the president of Mex
leo that the employment of ruthless
submarine warfare now promises to
compel England to make peace in a
few months.
