Women in Britain Cut Logs.

A quarter of million women in
England are now working more or
less regularly on the land, says the
London Observer. The great major
ity are village women who go out
from their cottages and work for the
farmers. Seven thousand are in the
new Land army, which employs wom-
en- who are recruited for a certain
term and sends them wherever they
are required.
The women in the Land army en-
list either for twelve or six months.
In case of twelve months they receive
two complete outfits free, consisting
of dress, corduroy breeches, strong
boots, leggings, overalls and hat.
They also get for the year one jer-
sey and one macintosh. They are
given four or six weeks free in
struction at a training center Their
pay on the farm ranges from So to
So week.
For girl who joins the army
for six months there is no training.
She goes straight away to the land
AID begins on the work requiring
less skill. Services of women en-
rolled in the Land army are avail
able for timber cutting and hay bal
ing.

WAGE WAR ON WEEDS

prepared by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture)
Good rotations and efficient
farm practices will subdue
weeds.
Three main principles of weed
control must be observed: a.
Prevent weeds from maturing
seed on the farm, (2) prevent
the Introduction of weed seeds
on the farm, and (3) prevent
perennial weeds from making
top growth.
The principles are the main
thing; the particular method
employed is of lesser impor-
lance.
Next to the principles ranks
the man behind them. Many
men make a start to clear their
farms of weeds but give up too
soon. Often the campaign Is
stopped when success is in
sight, and the weeds soon re-
cover.
Clearing a farm of weeds,
especially perennials, is no easy
task; it requires more than av-
erage intelligence and persever-
ence. If, however, one faith
fully carries out plan of at
tack based on the above prin-
ciples of weed control he can
practically rid his farm Of
weeds without great amount
of extra labor and expense.
Weed control is frequently
community problem, and for the
greatest permanent success CO.
operation among farmers is re-
CURED.

Fowls Should Be Allowed to Make
Their Own Nests.

conne Difficult to Manage
Incubation Varies.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture
The successful raising OF goslings
should begin with feeding the geese an
reproducing ration during the latter
part of the winter or early spring. The
geese should be allowed to make their
nests early in the spring on the floor
of the poultry house, or in large boxes,
barrels or shelters provided for the
purpose.
The eggs should be collected daily
and kept in a cool place where the con-
tents will not evaporate too freely; if
kept for some time they may be stored
in loose bran. The first eggs are usu-
ally set under hens, while the last ones
which the goose lays may be Matched
either under hens or under the goose,
If she gets broody. If the eggs are not
removed from the nest in which the
goose is laying she will usually stop
laying sooner than if they are taken
away. Some breeders prefer to raise
all the goslings under hens, as geese
sometimes become difficult to manage
when allowed to hatch and rear their
young. Hens used for Matching goose
eggs must be busted with insect pow
der and have good attention, as, in the
case of geese, the period Of incubation
is longer than in that of fowls. Goose
eggs may be Matched in incubators and
the goslings successfully raised in
broodefs, although this is not COM
mon practice.
Incubation of Goose Eggs.
The period Of incubation of goose
eggs varies from % to 30 days. Mois-
ture should be added to the eggs after
the first week if set under hens or In
incubators; this is usually done by
sprinkling the eggs or the nest with

smooth that heavily loaded wagons
make no impression on the surface.
But dragging must be frequent the
first fall until winter sets in and the
following spring until the middle OF
May or the first of June. After that
the dragging will not be very effective,
unless the rains are of long enough
duration to soften the surface slightly.

OBITUARIES.
HUMPHREY.

Mrs. Caroline Virginia Humphrey
(nee Ovens was born August %,
1851, in Montgomery County, Tennes-
see and death claimed her on June l3,
1918, being sc years, 8 months and
Il days of age.
Her early life was spent in the vi
cinity of her birthplace. When she
was IS years of age she was con-
verted at Bellmire, Tenn, and united
with the Cumberland Presbyterian
church at that place. On October 10,
1877, she was united in marriage to
J. H. Humphrey near GAINESVILLE. No
children were ever born to this union,
but later when a little neice, whose
exact age is unknown to the writer,
was left an orphan Mr.. and Mrs.
Humphrey opened the door of their
home and took the little one as their
own However, they were not per-
mitted to raise the child to woman
hood for death claimed her when she
was still small. A nephew, Ford Dill
Ion, son of a sister of deceased was
also taken in and partially raised by
them.
Deceased moved with her husband
from Tennessee to what was then In
dian Territory, finally settling at OF
near Vinita. They next moved to
Washington County, this state where
they have since lived but at different
places up till the past twelve or fiji
teen years when they bought the lit
tie home where deceased was living
when God called her to leave the
cares and sorrows of this world to put
on Immortality.
When the Presbyterian church at
Woodlawn was organized both de-
ceased and her husband united with il
and have held membership there ev-
-er since, always trying as best they
could do whatever fell to their lot
to do. Deceased was stricken nearly
two years ago and went to Fayette-

clan and entered the hospital where

Like an Electric
Button On Toes
Tells Why Corn is So Painful and
Says Cutting Makes Them
Grow

Press an electric button and you
form a contact with live wire which
rings the bell When your shoes
press against your corn it pushes its
sharp roots down upon sensitive
nerve and you get shock of pain.
Instead of trimming your corns,
which merely makes them grow. Just
step into any drug store and ask fer q
quarter of an ounce of freezone. This
will cost very little but is sufficient to
remove every hard or soft corn or
callus from ones feet. A few drops
applied directly upon tender, aching
corn stops the soreness instantly, and
soon the corn shriyels up so it lifts
right out, root and all, without pain.
This drug freezone is harmless and
never inflames or even irritates the
surrounding skin.
