UNSAFE SOURCES OF
FARM WATER SUPPLY
Streams, Ponds, bitches and
Reservoirs Unsatisfactory.
Temperature Is Not Pleasing and
Presence of More or Less PoIlut-
ing Matter Is Certain--Some
Hints on Ice Supply.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Streams, ponds, irrigation bitches
and small open reservoirs are unsatis-
factory and unsafe sources of farm
water supply. The subject is consid-
cred in Farmers Bulletin 941, ''Water
Systems for Farm Homes" recently
issued by the United States department
of agriculture.
The temperature of such water sell
dom is satisfactory, and the presence
of more or less polluting matter is GER
tain. Often the carcasses of farm ami
mails are found therein. In thousands
of cases the domestic supply is taken
directly from irrigation bitches. In
other instances cistern, often without
q filter, is filed at such times as the
ditch wafer runs clearest. Often open
reservoirs are necessary to collect and
store rainfall for the use Of stock, and
occasionally they are used as sources
Of domestic water and ice supplies.
sJnder favorable conditions, where
the basin is large and deep 40 feet or
more), the bottom free of mud, muck,
or other organic matter, the surround
ings clean, and the circulation good,
the quality of surface water may i'm
prove by long storage. However, these
conditions are seldom realized on the
farm, and the amount OF improvement
or publication is never certain.
The only safe course is to avoid
drinking water from any surface source
unless such water has been purified
BY filtration or sterilized by boiling or
by chemicals. Prudence Dictates also,
that ice gathered from shallow, I'M
clean sources should not be brought in
contact with food and drinking water.
1t is particularly important to reject
snow ice and the first inch or so of
clear ice formed.-From Farmers Bull

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
mas been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
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
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
lions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 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 DR..

sample bottle. When writing be sure and

PRICES NOT CUT BY
LARGER PRODUCTION
Interesting Figures Given by Bu-
reau of Crop Estimates.
Abnormal Conditions Created by War
and Other Causes Have Imposed
Special Relationship of Prices
and Value.

prepared by The United States Depart
| ment of Agriculture.)
1t is often said that when the farm
er has a bumper crop the price is SO
low that the total value of the crop
is below that of usual crop, but the
abnormal conditions created by the
war and other causes have imposed a
special relationship of crop prices and
total value to the production of 1918
in comparison with 1917.
In the estimates of the bureau Of
crop estimates it appears that larger
production has been followed by low
er price and lower total value only
for barley, cabbage, onions, and broom
corn, while larger production has been
followed by higher price and hence
by higher total value for wheat, buck
wheat, flaxseed, rice, sweet potatoes,
tobacco, apples, oranges, and cram
berries.
As is often the fact, lower produc-
ton is associated with higher price
and higher total value for oats, hay,
sugar beets, peaches, and sorghum
raised for strip, but exceptions to this
relationship are found in potatoes and
hops, both of which had lower pro-
duction and lower price.
Rye, cotton, the kafirs and peanuts,
had a higher production in 1918 than
in 1917 and lower price, but not low
enough to prevent higher total crop
value; whereas these conditions were
reversed for corn and beans, both of
which had smaller crops and higher
prices, but not high enough to prevent
a lower total crop value.
