and found to be the equal, If not the
superior, of the bran-mash formula, at

In the comparatively few months
during which the national bureau has
been In control of the volunteer mo-
tor corps of the various cities, impor-
tant progress has been made in effi-
cacy and uniformity of service. Rules

In conformity with the request OF
the war department the uniform of

The cars of the service are to be
distinguished by white metal PEN
nant, bearing the red cross and the
words "Motor Corps" This and the
drivers Identification card will be
sufficient to give the cars the right OF
way when on official business.

From Center Of Ball.

There is a best way of winding wool
for knitting and that is the way that
causes the wool to unwind from the
center. To do this roll piece OF
stiff paper two and half inches long
by two inches wide into tube. Meas
ure Off about eight inches of wool at
the end and begin winding the rest
about the tube. When enough has
been wound to hold the tube securely
tuck the eight-inch loose end complete
ly into one end of the tube. Do not
cover this end in further winding. but
the other end may be covered. 1t is
best to wind six or eight times In one
direction before turning to wind In
another direction. When the skein Is
completely wound tuck the last end
well into the ball. Pull out the tube.

"More than six thousand women

a result of IL conference recently held
in Washington ut the call of the direc-
tor of the bureau of motor corps serv-

or two. There is a discharge of mu-
Gus from the eyes. Coughing may or
may not be present. In chronic cases
there Ii emaciation and patient may
linger for days and weeks.
Prevention is the better treatment.
Separate sick animals from the herd
at once. vaccinate the apparently
healthy hogs with antihog-cholera
serum. This serum only protects the
hogs against cholera. It Is a preven-
tive and in no wise cure. 1t is ad
visable to take the temperature of the
hogs. This should not be more than
1O4 degrees F.
Burn or bury the carcasses of hogs
that have died with the disease, disln-
feet all pens and yards after an out
break of cholera. Burn all manure,
litter and straw, then apply coat
of coal tar. Pens should be situated
so that they can be properly drained
and cleaned.
Proper feeding, plenty of exercise,
clean pens and an abundance of sun
shine will do a great deal toward pro-
tectlng hogs from cholera.

SHEEP AID FARM LABOR

prepared by the U. s. Department
of Agriculture.)
The extra labor required to
keep weeds under control is prob
ably the greatest economic loss
which they cause. Labor is too
much needed for other lines of
farm work and should not be
used in fighting weeds If they
can be eradicated in any other
way. Yet weeds must be con-
trolled IL maximum crop yields
are to be secured. In this re-
spect sheep can aid in the farm
labor problem. They will eat
most weeds, and on any farm
will greatly reduce the amount
of hand labor needed to hold
weeds In check in pastures and
grain fields. Keep sheep and ar
range your farm so they can
help in the fight with weeds. .

Strength and
How to Gain II
Instead of Exercises, Patent Foods and
Medicines, Take Phosphate with
Your Meals

The demand today is for men and
women who are strong in every sense
of the word-possessing the physical
strength necessary to endure hardships
and fatigue; the mental strength to
grapple with difficult problems; the
nervous force which endows the body
with vigor and vitality; the will pow
er to triumph over adversely and turn
defeat into victory.
But such glorious strength is impos-
sible SO long as your nerves are weak
and exhausted, and therefore if you
would be really strong you must first
care for your nerves Weak, exhausted
nerves need food and for this purpose
strongly recommend the use
of the organic phosphate known among
druggists as bitro- phosphate and put
up in 5-gr. compressed tasteless tab
lets.
IF your feel your strength is failing
from any cause, get supply of these
'bitro phosphate tablets and take one
with every meal Practically all of the
minor ailments afflicting mankind, as
well as many of the more serious mala-
dies, can be traced to nervous exhaus-
ton and lowered vitality, and probab-
ly this explains why such a remark
able improvement in the general health
is invariably noticeable when bitro-
phosphate is taken as directed, as the
nerves are thereby, revitalized and
made strong.
