FOOD FROM THE C0CKLEBUR

Out of cocklebur, which sticks to
the clothes of the passer-by and has
generally been considered a pest, is
now made a valuable oil for use in
paints and varnishes and adaptable
for food. The details, as explained
by L. B. Rhodes, oil chemist of the
North Carolina Department of Agri-
culture, are thus set forth in 4 press
bulletin issued by the North Carolina
section of the American Chemical So
ciety.
After mentioning the wide distri-
button of the cocklebur and the ease
of gathering it, Mr.. Rhodes contin-
ues:
"Those which l have gathered were
either dry or in half dry condition.
They were first cut in half by trim
ming board and the kernels mashed.
They were then placed in a box and
vigorously shaken. The hulls were
taken out, leaving the kernels at the
bottom. These kernels were then
pounded and rubbed in a mortar until
the black shucks were removed, after
which the husks were forced out by
blowing. The ground kernels were
then wrapped in cheesecloth and
pressed between cold steel plates.
"The oil obtained was allowed to
settle for three or four days and then
filtered. 1t is of light yellow shade,
has a clear, sparkling appearance, a
pleasant odor and an agreeable nutty
taste. 1t keeps well without becoming
rancid. On account of this quality it
should eventually be used as q sub
stitute in the dietary for other vege-
table oils.
"The pressed cake left after ex-
pressing the oil should be of value as
a food for cattle, and certainly it can
be readily used as fertilizer"
Mr.. Rhodes said that he had no
doubt that before long the cocklebur
oil would have place in commerce
because of the richness of the kernel
and ease with which the oil can be ex-
tracted. The yield from the kernel is
about 80 per cent, and the kernels
constitute about the same proportion
of the bulk as the crude burs. The
pressed cake contains 40.34 per cent
of protein. With such things in their
favor. he added, the familiar roadside
pest may prove of real service to both
man and beast.-Litcrary Digest.

FAIR PREMIUM LIST is OUT

A copy of the 1919 State Fair Pre-
MUM List has been received at The
Times office, announcing August O.
16 as the dates of the fair and listing
the premiums offered. 1t is a hand
some book Of 264 pages, printed in col
ors. Persons desiring copies may Sc
cure them from Marvin w. Crowder,
County Clerk, or by dropping postal
card to E. G. Bylander, Secretary Mis-
souri, State Fair, Scdalia.
Premiums offered for exhibits total
$44,530, divided among IS depart
ments and extended over a much wild
err range of classifcations than in pre-
vious years. 1t is expected that the
attractive premiums will bring more
live stock, poultry and agricultural
displays to the fair than ever before.
The farm machinery and equipment
displays will cover 20 acres. in addi-
ton, the United States Department Of
Agriculture will have an immense ex-
hibit; and the War and Navy Depart
ments will display war trophies cap
tured from the Germans.
A "Victory Celebration and Peace
Jubilee" is to be the keynote of the
fair, and will be staged in connection
with the first Statewide Reunion Of
Veterans of the world war. Missouri
will honor her fighting sons with one
of the best State Fairs ever given in

SHOOTING PAINS
Michigan Lady Suffered Such Pains
In Back and Head, But Says
Cardui Stopped These
Bad Spells.

Palmyra, Mich.-Mrs. Chas. T. Full
Ter, of this place, writes: "In 1911 I
got rundown, and I suffered great
pain. with both dull and sharp
shooting pains. also back and head.
I was weak and could only drag
around, and should have been in bed,
for / really wasn't able to be up. At
times I would have spells that would
be SO bad I'd have to go to bed, and
suffered Intensely.
I decided to try Cardui, and saw q
great Improvement In lees than q
months time. I used. or 8 bottles
and was stronger. Il got so much
better that my strength returned and
my work was easy for me. Cardui did
me q world Of good. It built me up In
health and strength. I haven't had one
of those bad spells since. ! haven't
had to take any more medicine since
or have any doctors either and have
been able to do my work right along
~ recommend It to other women
highly as the best medicine know
OF for women who suffer from female
trouble"
II you suffer from female troubles,
follow this advice. Get bottle OF
Cardui today and give II thorough
trial. It should help you, as It has
helped thousands Of other women IN
the past 40 years. At all druggists.

CHRONIC Consultation

Perhaps you have never thought of
it, but this disorder is due to lack of
moisture in the residual matter of the
food. If you will drink an abundance
of water, eat raw fruits and take lots
of outdoor exercise, you may be able
eventually to overcome it entirely. In
the meantime use the most mild and
gentle laXatives. Strong and harsh
cathartics take too much water out of
the system and make bad matter
worse. Chamberlain Tablets are
easy and pleasant to take, and most
agreeable in effect. Give them trial.
Obtainable everywhere. (adv.l

ing trace chain belonging to j. M.
Fulkerson and paddock belonging to
his grandmother.
The story is this: Val Dubois of
Mine La Motto drank deeply of the
cup that is supposed to bring cheer
to the heart, but instead it brought
wooziness to the head and Dubois
drifted around and landed in a help
less condition in Fulkerson's yard
about midnight. There the marshal
found him.
Previously Sheriff Chapman had in
formed the city authorities that city
prisoners would not be received at the
Jail until he was paid board bill
which he claims the city owes him. So
not having any other place TO store
Dubois, Higgins attached him to the
front fence of the Mayor and Police
Judge.
Next morning he was fined $10.75
and under a commitment sent to

story of the year. For some time he
had been missing eggs and a few days
ago while gathering the eggs large
chicken snake was found in one Of the
nests. Mr.. Lucas killed the snake
which measured six feet in length. The
next evening another snake Of the
same measurement was found in the
same nest which was also killed by
Mr.. Lucas.-Bismarck Gazette.

DEPOT SCRUBBED ONCE A
YEAR REGULARLY WHETH-
Err IT NEEDS IT OR NOT

To lady passengers who journeyed
to the M. r. & b. 7. depot Tuesday
morning it appeared as though min
icture tidal wave had hit the ladies'
waiting room. At any rate the room
was overlooking with sea of ex-
tremcly dirty water, In the middle
of the sea--without even the sign of
u life-prescrver or even a gas mask
was a man vigorously welding
broom to the tune of "Heave o, Ye
Sailors, Heave o.. The chocolate
colored water, due probably to the
presence Of a submarine that had
turned it's toes to the daisies, was ed
dying and bubbling around him, but
with supreme indifference to danger
from microbes or other varmints, he
labored away.
1t developed upon inquiry, that the
waiting room was receiving its an
nual bath or scrubbing. One of the
obliging operators volunteered infor-
nation that the company makes a
practice of scrubbing the waiting
rooms once year whether they need
it or not.
However, we think the operator was
rubbing it in" a little, because we
distinctly remember that on one oc-
casion, less than year ago, when a
visit Of several officials of the Pub
lie Service Commission was due, the
depot was thoroughly gone over and
even the operators got a hair cut so
that they would present natty APP
pearance when the Commission Off
Gals nosed around. And we remem-
Der when the hearing as to the ade-
quacy of the depot was being dis
cussed officially, the Commissioners
were extended a special invitation to
visit the depot. But the unkindest cut
of all was, that Notwithstanding the
fac that the depot had been specially
prepared for their inspection, they
did not appear intercsted.-Lead Belt

RATS AND MICE DIFFERENTIATED

Rats and mice, enemies of mankind
everywhere, and one Of the most po-
tent agencies of destruction anywhere,
have been banished from the orphan
age at Oxford, N. G.
This spring they appeared in vast
numbers--little brown mice and big
gray rats. They gnawed their way
into the cupboards, and were playing
havoc with the grain in the barn.
Traps they avoided, and the usual
poisons they spurned,
1t was just about this time that a
War Savings Society was organized
in the orphanagc, but not vast num-
Der of Thrift Stamps were bought, be-
cause the inmates were not burdened
with an overplus of money.
But the superintendent had an idea.
He had two ideas. He wanted to get
rid of the pests and he wante his char
ges to acquire habits of thrift. There
fore he declared war on the verInin.
For every casualty in ratdnEn or
mousedom he offered bounty of one
cent per head. And the little boys
got busy and the little girls overcame
their aversion for the pestiferous ro-
dents, and war of determination was
declared
Now the orphanage at Oxford is
freed of the pests, and the little boys
and girls are all creditors of Uncle
Sam and are piling up savings ac-
count that will help to make them use
ful men and women when they depart
from the orphanage to take their
places in the work-a-day world.

SOME FIGURES, THESE

Down in Washington some Of those
experts who are masters of figures and
who have mind attuned to Stats
tics, frequently dig up some queer
things. One of this type has figured
out that the total wealth of the Unit
ed States is 5000, 600, 100000. Then he
figures out the new wealth produced
annually, which he terms met in
come" This gets into dizzy figures,
too, He estimates that last year the
national wealth increased some $751;
900, 100000, which he admits Is going
faster than the normal. Another
Washington official points out that one
of the best ways to conserve this ma
tional income in wealth is for indi-
viduals to buy War Savings Stamps.
