With your fingers! You can lift of
any hard corn, soft corn, or corn be-
tween the toes, and the hard skin
calluses from bottom of feet.
A tiny bottle of "Freezone" costs
little at any drug store; apply few
drops upon the corn or callus. In
stantly it stops hurting, then shortly
you lift that bothersome corn or
callus right off, root and all, without
one bit Of pain or soreness. Truly!
No humbug!

WINTER WHEAT CONDITION.

If conditions remain as favorable
until wheat harvest as they have
been up to the present time Colo
RADIO will produce. approximately
5,459, 900 bushels Of winter wheat
in 1919, or nearly 2,O00, 900 bushels
more than the combined production
of winter and spring wheat in 1917,
which was the largest wheat crop
ever produced in the state.
This yeild Of winter wheat ID in.
dicated by reports received by the
Colorado Cooperative Crop Report
ing Service, and shows possible
production nearly l, 600, 900 bush-
els in excesss Of what was Undated
that the codition OF the winter
wheat crop is 1o2 per cent. of nor
NAL. as compared with 100 per
cent. reported last month, 90 per
cent for May 1st, last year, and SO
per cent. for the preceding seven
year average. Apparently there
will be but 1 per cent. OF the crop
abandoned this year. as compared
with z per cent. and ss per cent
the average for the preceding sew
en- years.
The condition OF winter wheat in
Colorado has perhaps never been re-
ported so high at this seaeon Of the
year as 1t is now. Weather con-

able in all sections of the state and
damage has been but slight The
acreage planted last fall was the
largest in the history OF the state
