TESTING SOIL FOR ACIDITY
Blue litmus Paper-pink Color
Indicates Acid.

The most common test for determin-
ing If soil is acid or sour is by means
of blue litmus paper, which can be OBJ
tanned at very small cost from nearly
every druggist. A small quantity of
moist soil from the field Is compacted
into ball, the ball broken into halves,
a strip of litmus paper laid across one
part and the parts pressed firmly to-
gether again. After an hour or so the
ball of soil should be again broken
apart and the paper removed. If the
paper shows decided pink color the
sample of soil is acid. If a deep
rooted crop such as alfalfa is TO be
grown IL will be well to test samples
taken from both the surface soil and
the subSoil.

YES! MAGICALLY!
CORNS LIFT OUT
WITH FINGERS

You say to the drug store man,
"Give me a small bottle of freezone"
This will cost very little but will
positively remove every hard or soft
corn or calluS from ones feet.
A few drops of this new ether COM
pound applied directly upon a tender,
aching corn relieves the soreness in
stantly, and soon the entire corn or
callus, root and all. dries up and can
be lifted off with the fingers.
This new way to rid ones feet of
corns was introduced by a Cincinnati
man, who says that freezone dries in
a moment, and simply shrivels up the
corn or callus without irritating the
surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to order small bottle from
his wholesale drug house for you.-adv.

Spring Is Best Time of Year to
Put Them in Storage.
Eggs Can Be Carried Over Until Sea-
sen of High Prices at Cost of
About Two Cents Dozen--Wa.
ter Glass Is Favored.

During the spring months market
eggs usually retail ut anywhere from
20 to 80 cents asdozen, whereas six
months hence many will undoubtedly
be selling at 80 and 60 cents dozen.
The eggs that are laid in spring can
be kept over until the season of high
prices under proper management at a
cost of about 2 cents a Dozen From
all appearances it is good invest
ment to preserve eggs in the spring
and consume them in October, thus en-
abling the owner to sell at high prices
the eggs his pullets produced in the
spring.
For home preservation of eggs, wa
ter glass seems to be the best prepa-
ration, writes Prof. w. f. Kirkpatrick
