RUST IN GRAINS is
RATHER PERPLEXING
Absolutely No Way to Control
Trouble-SeIect Most Rests
tant Varieties Is Urged.

CBy PROF. M. A. BEEsON, Department
of Agronomy Oklahoma A. and NJ Col
lege, Stillwater)
There is no way to absolutely con-
troll rust in wheat, oats, barley and
other small grain crops. There is no
method of treatment and no disin-
fectant which can be used to prevent
this disease. Rust spreads through
the air and attacks the plant at any
point.
The only satisfactory thing to do is
to grow rust-resiStant varieties. The
Texas Red Rust-proof oat is the best
variety for most parts of Oklahoma.
Any of the hard wheats, such as the
Kharkof and Turkey, are all right for
the northern and western parts of Ok
lahoma.
Climatic conditions have much to do
with the prevalence of rust. II the
weather is warm and damp grain crops
are apt to rust badly. If the weather
is cool and dry there is not much dam
ger of rust. Nothing can be done to
change these conditions.
We recommend therefore the selec-
ton of rust-resistant varieties when
this disease is common and destruc-
tive. This is about the only thing
which farmer can observe in control
ling rust in the small grains.

FOWLS FOR MARKET
MUST BE FATTENED
lust as important Matter With
Chickens as 1t Is With Swine
or Beef Cattle.

(By H. L. KEMPSTER, Missouri College
of Agrtcultureo
1t is Just as important to fatten
chickens sent to the market as it is to
fatten hogs or beef cattle. In fact,
range it is in the proper condition to
put on economical gains. Students in
the poultry department of the Univer-
sity of Missouri found in recent tests
that chickens will gain about % per
cent in IL to IA days feeding. That
this gain is economical was shown by
the fact that the grain required to put
on pound of gain was approximately
3h pounds.
The total cost of a pound of gain
with cornmeal at $2.25, bran at $1.50,
middlings at $1.75, and sour milk at
20 cents per 100 pounds, was 8 cents.
The ration consisted of: Cornmeal,
seven pounds; shorts, three pounds,
and bran, one pound. To every pound
of this mixture two pounds of sour
milk was added. This wet mash was
fed twice daily. The length of the feed
ing period, which was ten minutes the
first day, was increased minute a
day as the period advanced. The
chickens were confined in coops by
21a feet square, each coop having
wire bottom. Stats were placed up
and down, ~ inches apart, permit
ting them to reach the food which was
placed in a trough outside. The close
confinement not only discourages ex-
ercise thus promoting gain, but the in
activity causes the tendons to soften.
The fat is distributed through the
muscles by the fattening process and
the result is a luscious flesh which
comes only in a finished product, put
on cheaply.

DON'T QUIT MEAT

Don't stop eating meat for fear of kid
ney trouble. The sturdy Dutch are the
heartiest livers in the world. They keep
in good shape by using GOLD MEDAL
HARLEM Oil Capsules This is a timehon-
ored National Remedy of Holland for
warding off the danger of meat eating,
govt, rheumatism, uric acid poisoning in
cipient 'Bright's disease and all liver, kid
ney and bladder complaints.
For over 200 years the genuine GOLD
MEDAL HARLEM Oil was put up in walls
with the ancient skin top. Modern science
encloses it in Capsules, which makes it
convenient to carry and pleasant to take.
1t soothes the irritated membranes,
strengthens weakened organs and gives i'm
pulse to all the functions. 1t is harmless,
and it's effect is wonderful. Genuine GOLD

CHOICE OF LIME IS
NOT Determined ON
Sufficient Evidence Not on Hand
to Recommend Any Particu-
lar Kind of Material.

Evidence to date is not such as to
justify the recommendation of one
form of lime over any other, according
to the department of soils of the Ohio
State university 1t says that the
choice must be In favor of the ma
terial which supplies the greatest
amount of calcium or magnesium in
alkaline form per unit of cost. One
thousand pounds of burned lime, 1920
pounds of hydrated lime or 1,7S0
pounds of limestone should be deliv-
cred to the farm at the same cost If
they are to be equally economical in
their use. The only argument for the
use of hydrated lime at present prices
is its convenience, and the manufacture
ers of hydrated lime are not justified
in arguing its merits on any other
basis. While ground limestone can be
used In large amounts with no inju-
rious effects, burned lime used in ex-
cess is injurious.
Evidence to date is entirely in ia
vor of finely ground limestone for use
on acid soils. 1t seems advisable,
when buying ground limestone, to de-
mand product, all of which will pass
through a screen with ten meshes to
the inch. If all Of the product does not
pass through a ten-mesh screen, 1t
must sell at a price enough lower to
compensate for the extra amount nee
essary to secure the desired effect. If
the farmers are living within hauling
distance of the quarry, however, and
screenings are selling at very low
prices, there is a justification for their
use.

HAIR means
DANDRUFF IS ACTIVE
Of Danderine Right Now-Aiso
Stops Itching Scalp.

Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
hair is mute evidence of a neglected
scalp; of dandruff-that awful scurf.
There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. 1t robs the hair
of it's luster, it's strength and it's very
life; eventually producing a feverish-
ness and itching of the scalp, which
if not remedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, loosen and die-then the
hair falls out fast. A little Danderine
onight-now-any time-will surely
save your hair.
Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any store, and after
the first application your hair will
take on that life, luster and luxuriance
which is so beautiful. 1t will become
wavy and fluffy and have the appear
ance of abundance; an Incompatible
gloss and softness, but what will
please you most will be after just
few weeks use, when you will actual
ly see lot of fine, downy hair-new
growing all over the scalp. Adv.

In spite OF the best care one takes
of oneself, any part of the human machine
is liable to become out of order. The
most important organs are the stomach,
heart and kidneys.
The kidneys are the scavengers and they
work day and night in separating the
poisons from the blood. The;- signals Of
distress are easily recognized and in
clude such symptoms as backache, de-
pressions, drowsiness, irritability, head
aches, dizziness, rheumatic twinges,
dropsy, govt.
"The very best way to restore the
kidneys to their normal state Of health"
says DIR: Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, lis to
drink plenty of pure water and obtain
from your favorite pharmacy a small
amount of Anuric, which is dispensed by
almost every druggist" Anuric is mex
pensive and should be taken before meals.
You will find Anuric more potent than
lithia, dissolves uric acid as water does
sugar.

BILIOUS, HEADACHY,
SICK ''CASCARETS'
Gently cleanse your liver and
sluggish bowels while
you sleep.
Get a 10-cent box.

Sick headache, biliousness, dizzi-
ness, coated tongue foul taste and foul
breath-always trace them to torpid
liver; delayed, fermenting food In the
bowels or sour, gassy stomach.
Poisonous matter clogged in the in
testines, instead of being cast out
of the system is re-absorbed into the
blood. When this poison reaches the
delicate brain tissue it causes con-
gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick
ening headache.
Cascarets Immediately cleanse the
stomach, remove the sour, undigested
food and foul gases, take the excess
bile from the liver and carry out all
the constipated waste matter and
poisons in the bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will surely
straighten you out by morning. They
work while you sleep-a 10-cent box
from your druggist means your head
clear, stomach sweet and your liver
and bowels regular for months. Adv.

CULTIVATION KILLS
RASPBERRY ENEMIES
Important to Have All Neglected
Wild Bushes Destroyed,
Says an Expert.
(By 8. MARCO, Minnesota Experiment
Station)

(By 8. MARCO, Minnesota Experiment
Station)
Wormy raspberries, still fresh in
the minds of the pickers, are fortu-
nately not a necessary evil. Berries
which are infested with raspberry fruit
worms cannot be shipped any distance.
They make the box unsightly, soon fall
apart, and require unnecessary work
Of the housewife.
During the picking season and i'm
mediately after the seasons close the
worms drop to the ground, where after
about six weeks they change to help
less, delicate pupa. In the spring they
transform to small, adult, brownish
beetles about one-seventh of an inch
long. Being hungry, they Immediately
chew elongated holes in the young
tender leaves, and later make holes in
the buds. Often from 10 to Is per cent
Of the buds may be destroyed in this
manner.
Since the insects are helpless in the
ground, cultivation in the late fall and
early spring will kill many of them or
expose them to their enemies. They
can be killed also by spraying with
four pounds of lead arsenate paste to
80 gallons of water about the first or
second week in May, when the young
is important to have all neglected wild
bushes destroyed, for these serve as
breeding grounds.
