Remarks About Things

On April 18th, l79 cars OF onions
we're shipped from the state OF Tex
as. This was the largest shipment
ever made In one day, 80 far As
known.
One important feature of alfalfa
Is It's long top root system extend
ing deep into the soil and bring
ing up valuable plant food which
could not be secured by any other
crop.
II is estimated that 5.0ls,00o doz-
en- eggs spoil needlessly in cold stor-
age every year simply because some
one has let clean eggs get wet or
has washed dirty eggs before put
ting them on the market. Water
removes from the shell of the egg
a gelatinous covering which helps to
keep air and germs from the inside
Of the egg and IL this covering Is
removed by washing or rain. germs
and mold find ready access to the
inside and spoil the egg. Keep eggs
cean. Without washing
The condition OF winter wheat on
May 1st was 1872 which was the
lowest II has been on that date since
1888. The abandonment of acreage
Is the largest ever recorded. nearly
81 per cent OF the total planted. The
forecast OF production Is sSs. 200. 900
bushels. the lowest since 1904, Al
though prospects for winter wheat
are poor, the prospect for good
yield OF other crops are bright and
the law OF compensation may step In
again and even things up In the end.

Corn Cultivation should Begin Early

Cultivation should not be delayed
In the corn until the field looks
weedy Only little stirring OF the
soil Is required to kill weeds imme-
diately after they germinate and be-
fore they have used SO much soil
moisture. but to destroy weeds that
are well rooted, the soil must be
worked deeply and thoroughly. Such
deep cultivation not only means
more labor but It can not be ac-
complished without destroying many
corn roots.
II corn land has been properly
prepared, deep cultivation is not ad-
yisable II should never be done
close to the plants after they are a
foot high. as much harm would be
done by breaking the roots.
To get an early start OF the weeds,
in many sections OF in seasons when
seed terminates slowly. II is advis-
able to harrow once or twice or
otherwise TO cultivate the field be-
fore corn comes up. Limited moist
ure makes thin stands necessary and
II is poor management to allow grass
and weeds to rob the corn OF this
moisture.
Aside from destroying weeds.
timely cultivation Is beneficial in
preventing the loss of moisture by
evaporation and also in hasstening
the warming OF the soil The loss
OF soil moisture by evaporation con-
tinues much longer from compact.
damp surface than from a loose. dry
surface. and the evaporation tends
to keep the soil cold.

cation of the planted seeds


marked.
The gardener should choose .
bright, sunny day for wedding. At
such a time even weeds that are only
partially severed from their roots
will have little chance of surviving
the withering rays OF the sun. II
wedding operations are conducted on
a cloudy or damp day, however. many
of the weeds that are incompletely
severed will take fresh growth.
Wedding does more than free the
garden OF undesirable plants. The
digging incidental to removing the
weeds also serves as q cultivation.
As soon as the weeds have been dug
UP the roughened ground should be
carefully smoothed with rake. This
will incorporate air In the soil, form
a dust mulch which will aid In pre-
venting the loss OF moisture through
evaporation. and will tend to bring
to the surface and expose to the sun
weed roots and sprouting weed seeds
which otherwise might produce
plants.

HAVE SEIZED FLEET
Federal Officials Take Over h.
 termed German Ships.
ACT UNDER M'ADoo's ORDERS
Vessels Now In American Ports Are Declared to Have Tonnage of About 600, o,ooo-Fiower of
 Teuton Empires Marine.

New York, April 6.-Federal officials seized German merchant vessels that took refuge in Atlantic ports at the beginning of the war, almost imme- diately after congress passed the reso- lution declaring a state of war be- tween the United States and Germany. The collector of the port at Boston was the first to act.
 Port officers acted on orders issued by the secretary of the treasury. It is understood that this move does not involve confiscation and that the yes sells are held for the present as measure of safety.
 German vessels now in American ports number 91, with gross tonnage of about 100000. This includes 23 ships in refuge at the Philippine islands, Il at Honolulu and one at Pagopago, a port of the Pacific islands.
 The ships lying at their slips at the Hamburg-American and North German Lloyd docks at New York and Ho- boken include some of the flower of the German merchant marine. The Vaterland, one of the largest vessels in the world, is by far the most valu- able. Next in size is the George Wash ington, 25,570 tons. Others of more than 15,000 tons are the President Grant, President Lincoln and Kaiser Wilhelm II. Four Austrian steamships also are tied up here.
 The ships taken, with their value and tonnage, is officially announced as follows:

It is cruel to force nauseating, harsh physic into a

Look back at your childhood days. Remember the dose" mother insisted on-castor oil, calomel. cathartics. How you hated them, how you fought against taking them.
 With our children it's different. Mothers who cling to the old form of physic simply don't realize what they do. The children's g revolt is well-found- ed. Their tender little "insides" are injured by them.
 If your child's stomach, liver and bowels need cleansing, give only deli cious California Syrup of Figs" Its action Is positive, but gentle. Millions of mothers keep this harmless fruit laxative" handy; they know children love to take 1t; that 1t never fails to clean the liver and bowels and sweet on the stomach, and that . teaspoonful given today saves sick child tomor- row.

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.
