A New Way to Put Up Hay

Some of the ranchmen in this 10
cali'v are trying a new plan of put
ting up hay this year. Instead OF
allowing the hay to lay on the
ground and cure after cutting, they
are following up the mower with
the rake and the hay is immediate
ly put in the stack. green. 1t will
burn, the experienced ranchmen
will say. Very true. it will burn,
but this seems to give the hay
added value as food for dairy cat
tie, and has very much the same
food properties as ensilage 1t is
not so good for horses, however, but
enough can be cured in the usual
way to feed the horses. For all stock
it is claimed to be superior because
1t retains all the nutriment, and
has the added advantage of enabl-
ing the farmer to defy the storms so
common about haying time.-Sa-

YOUR CORNS
OFF WITH G
Tells how to loosen a tender corn or
callus so it lifts out
without pain

You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once a week invited an awful
death from lockjaw or blood poison are
now told by a Cincinnati authority to
use a drug called freezone, which the
moment a few drops are applied to any
corn or callus the soreness is relieved
and soon the entire corn or callus, root
and all, lifts off with the fingers.
Freezone dries the moment it is ap-
piled, and simply shrivels the corr or
callus without inflaming or even irritat-
ing the surrounding tissue or skin. A
small bottle of freezone will cost very
little at any of the drug stores. but
will positively rid ones. feet of every
hard or soft corn or hardened callus.
If your druggist hasn't any ~freezone
he can get it at any wholesale drug
house for you. l
