of pernicous loss in this time of food

must stand, is enormous. A common

The methods the farmer is to use are
not some new-fangled things manu-
featured on the spur of the moment
but are standard, well-knOwn and thor
Oughly tested treatments, which
through ignorance or carelessness are
now often widely neglected.
TO meet the situation squarely the
farmer must know the nature of the
trouble he is trying to correct. Plant
diseases for the most part are caused
by parasites so tiny as 10 be invisible
except under microscope, which steal
their living from the farmers crops.
Sometimes the attacks of these para
sites may cause only Il spot or blem-
ish on the plant, us for example, the
scab of potatoes and the "speckles'
on apples. With other parasites, the
destruction mGy be complete. In Oat
smut and late blight of potatoes for
instance the crop shows the effect of
the attack by diminished yields
In carrying out the program for crop
protection, which this article proposes,
the most necessary thing for the farmer
to understand, is that plant diseases
are not beyond control just because
certain weather may favor their in
crease.
Let us suppose that the farmer is a
grain farmer and put TO test the
proposition that plant disease control
can increase his production. Some of
the greatest wastes on many farms
are those which result from SHUTS
cat smut for example, and the stink
ing smut OF wheat. BY conservative
estimate the average loss from oats
smut has been placed mt about 50 per
acre for the Michigan crop. This
amounts I'm the aggregate to nm enor-
nous sum. The average farmer who
neglects To treat his seed feeds the
smut parasites i'm his ten acres as much
MS would he required to keep COW for
three months.
The remedy for this situation is well
known and has been pushed in many
farming communities. Last year I'm
Michigan the county agricultural agents
recommended widely and with uniform
success the new concentrated formalde-
hyde solution is sprayed on the grain
as II is shoveled over and over. The
treated grain is covered for four hours
and Is then spread out In n warm place
to air. II should be planted at once.
With n cost Of from 30 to 30 cents for
formaldehyde and a slight expendi-
ture of time and labor II will be seen
that any farmer can protect his crop.
Similar treatment to this is possible

KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT
EASILY RECOGNIZED
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected

An examining physician for one of the
prominent life insurance companies, in an
interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so com
mon to the American people, and the large
majority of those whose applications are
declined do not even suspect that they
have the disease.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-R Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
We find that Swamp-Root is strictly
an herbal compound and we would adj
wise our readers who feel in need of such a
remedy to give it a trial. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DIR.

East Lansing Mich.-The farmer is
facing. as never before, high and al
most prOhibitive prices on the neces-
sary materials and implements of his
business. The problem of farm labor
has been only partially solved. How
can the farmer then answer the ever
recurring appeal of the nation for
greater production?
Those familiar with the losses caused
by plant diseases recognize i'm these
losses the great leak in agriculture.
Here if anywhere the farmer should
concentrate his attention, and by n
little effort and by Il study of the facts
that directly concern his business learn
to prevent these losses which year af-
ter year have been cutting down yields.

To delay securing these necessary
materials or the necessary insecticides
such ms arSenicalS and nicotine, is TO in
vte loss when the great summer de-
mand has exhausted the available sup
ply. Nothing but foresight will meet
the crisis which our congested trans
portatlOn conditions present.
Spraying machinery too is most inn
pOrtant in this year when we plan to
protect our crops with properly made
fungicides and insecticides. TO insure
even June deliveries orders should be
placed at once.
Michigan has n number of excellent
ly equipped factories turning out wor-
thy and dependable spray machines.
Local freight is moving fairly rapidly
and accordingly 1t would seem the part
of good Judgment to order goods from
factories near at hand. The same is
true of sprays materials, many of
which can be bought in quantity from
Michigan concerns.
Preparedness for the battle which
cOnfrOnts the American farmer de-
mands attention to the serious plant
diseases. The great gains in agricul-
ture will not come to much from dis
covery of new and especially produc-
tive varieties as from the greater saw
ing of the crop from the ravages Of
insect pests and plant diseases. The
American farmer army must be pre-
pared if it is to win this impending
battle.
