USE ONLY PART OF
POTATO FOR SEED

The cost of seeding Irish potatoes
can be greatly reduced reduced if,
instead of using whole potato for
planting the gardener will cut out
from potatoes cone-snaped pieces of
flesh, each containing an eye of the
potato. In this way only from one
fourth TO one-fifth of the flesh of the
potato will be needed to provide seed
and the remainder of the potato can
be cooked for table use. Under this
plan it is not necessary to prepare
the seed all at one time. From day
to day the cones for seeding can be
cut from the potatoes as they are be-
ing prepared for the table.

Drink lots of water and stop eating meat for while if your
 Bladder troubles you.

When you wake up with back6 che and dulI misery in the kidney region it generally means you have been eat authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; removing all the bOdy's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 Either consult a good, reliable phy- sician at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of lad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irritates. thus ending bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is a life saver for regular meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot injure and makes a delightful. effer- vescent lithia-water drink.
