It has been fight or die for many of us in the past and the lucky people are those who have suffered, but who are now well because they needed natures warn ing signal in time to correct their trou- ble with that wonderful new discovery of pr Pierce's called "An-u-ric." You should promptly heed these warnings, some of which are dizzy spells, eackache. irregularity of the urine or the painful twinges of rheumatism. sciatica or lum- bago. To delay may make possible the dangerous forms of kidney disease. such as stone in the bladder.
 To overcome these distressing condi- tions take plenty of exercise in the open air, avoid a heavy meat diet. drink freely of water and at each meal take Dr. Pierce's Anuric Tablets tdouble strength). You will, in a short time. find that you are one of the firm indorsers of Anuric, as are thousands of neighbors.
 Step into the drug store and ask for a 6oc package of Anuric. or send Dr. V. Nj. Pierce. Buffalo, N. Y. 10c for trial pkg. Anuric. many times more potent than lthia. eliminates uric acid as hot water melts sugar.

JUST WHY IS A GUINEA HEN?
Question Is Asked by Writer Who Evl. dently Has No Great Liking
 for the Breed.

Whoever designed the guinea hen and composed the music for her vocal organs must have used a rasp for n tuning fork. Guinea hens and their husbands are alike In appearance ; when you've seen one you've seen the other. Their plumage is of one and the same piece of goods, like the Quak- CTS. If ever you have indulged In til- ing the teeth of n cross-cut saw, you've heard the synonym of her melody.
 Nature did herself dreadful injus- tIee when she produced this variety of fowl and the farmer who gives her board and lodging Is no good Chris tian say this because any man who sells you guinea hen as youthful and tender has designs to skin you. l have a dim recollection of tasting one many years ago, and I will say this- the gravy was quite tender.
 A group of gunens running to keep out of harms way resembles Il streak of ten-cent calico of somber hue with polka-dots The guinea hen lays Il very small egg with spots on It simi- lar to those we see In cheap grocery stores in fly time. The eggs have no rating In the commercial world. They are used exclusively for matching more trouble.-Cartoons Magazine.

7. Nj. c. A. APPEALS
FOR WORKERS
Two Types of Service Needed

Two Types of Service Needed
An appeal IS issued by the
Young Mems Christian Association
asking for volunteers to perform d
very necessary and highly COM
mendable service in France. Della
were IS asked 70 furnish fifty men.
Relatively few have yet been Sc
cured. It IS desirable that those
responding to the call should be
men Of good judgment, tact and in
teLligence. They must be beyond
the draft age.
To those who have desired to
serve actively al the front though
not in regular military service, this
appeal by the Association is worth
considering. Men Of mature years
VINO have been regretting their in
ability TO be Of direct service near
the fighting lines may in response
10 this appeal, have such opportun-
.ty. \ large contingent Of Phila-
deLphtans have recently volunteer
ed for this special service. There is
no doubt hat Delaware will come
TO the front in response to this ap-
peal as she has done in other war
activities.
Two classes Of men are desired.
For one class, the uniforms and
equipment will be furnished and
expenses paid; for the other class
the Association wants men Of in
dependent means who can afford
to pay their own expenses and who
can give at least six months time
TO the work of the association in
France. These men will have an
opportunity for real service as sec
retarIes, executives, or recreationaI
directors. Automobile drivers and
MEG hanlcs are also needed.
The \. VI. c. 4. workers now IN
France are having wonderful and
inspiring experience The benefit
OF this type of service has been
fully recognized and commended
by the military commanders. The
work Of this and similar organiza-
tions have contributed greatly to
sustaining the morale of our
Troops.

SOIL TREATMENT
WHEAT CROPS
Use of Legumes and CONNER
cial Fertilizers-Time of
Seeding a Factor

The lack Of proper fertilization
is often the cause Of poor Yields Of
wheat on Delaware soils. While
the first consideration is the thor
0ugh preparation q the soil
through crop rotation and good
tillage. certain applications Of
plant food are necessary on most
farms to secure the best Yields Of
grain. The use Of legume crops
and manure in the rotation lessons
the demand for fertilizers carrying
a large percent Of nitrogen.
The kind and amount Of fer-iltz-
ers that may be used with the
greatest profit vii. depend On the
previous cropping Of the land and
It's natural fertility. No rule can
be laid down as TO what fertilizer
formula S best for wheat on all
farms. However, there are some
general principles which apply 70
the fertilizer requirement Of
wheat. On Delaware soils wheat
responds readily 10 liberal use Of
phosphorus acid. Experiments a.
this Station show that phosphoric
acid when used alone, produces a
greater increase in the yield Of
wheat than either nitrogen or
potash used singly, indicating that
the soil is deficient in phosphoric
acid.
This does not mean that nitrogen
and potash are not necessary for
the best results. l. i onIv when

GROWERS Benefit
BY HIGHER PRICES
Continued from page ~

bonus will be doubled, giving $14 for
beets.
And there is now every reason to
believe that the price will be fixed at
II cents. The government, through the
food administration has, since October
], 1917, dictated the price and market
ing conditions for sugar. The Beet
Sugar association last year informed
the food administration that in order
to keep up the production of sugar
beets it would be necessary that pri ,e
of SO per 100 pounds be allowed by the
food administration for the 1918 crop
At that time the price of sugar was
$3.50. The administration authorized
the price of SO in order to stimulate
the industry, and the present price of
$40 for beets results.
The same association in the same
manner has advised the food admins
tration that in order to accomplish the
increase necessary in the production of
sugar from beets that price of $11
should be allowed for the 1919 crop.
No report has as yet been received
from the food administration, but sugar
producers feel assured the increase will
be granted and in all probability that
asked for.
The local officials are very anxious
to double the present average annual
acreage of $500 acres, giving a total
of over $1,000 acres devoted to the
crop. An abundance of labor is assured
by the government for the sugar beet
industry as it is essential and given
every preference. This year there has
been no labor shortage and growers are
reaping handsome returns.
In order to handle this increased
acreage the company will construct
such receiving stations as are neces-
sary. This season a new receiving sta.
tion is in operation at Sykes and Others
are now planned where beet growing is
to extend into new districts.
The remarkable advance in prices
paid for sugar beets is shown by the
fact that in 1914 but $475 was being
paid.
In order to secure a greatly increased
acreage, special field men have been
pressed into service and the company
hopes to contract during the coming
few months for thousands of additional
acres.
