DON'T DELAY
Some Edgerton People Have Learn
ed That Neglect is Dangerous.

The slightest symptom of kidney
trouble is far too serious to be over
looked. It's the small, neglected trou-
bles that so often lead to serious kid
ney ailments. That pain in the ''small''
of your back; that urinary irregular
ity; those headaches and dizzy spells;
that weak, weary, WORKOUT feeling,
may be natures warning of kidney
weakness. Why risk your life by neg
lecting these symptoms? Reach the
cause of the trouble while there is yet
time-begin treating your kidneys at
once with a tried and proven kidney
remedy. No need to experiment.
Doan's Kidney Pills have been success
fully used in thousands of cases of kid
ney trouble for over so years. Ooan's
Kidney Pills are used and recommend
ed throughout the civilized world. Con-
vincing testimony follows:

One of the greatest pests that haunt
our orange groves is the Argentine
ant, and yet it never goes near the
trees. Every bit of the damage it
does indirectly. 1t seems that it has
a very sweet tooth and is abnormally
fond of a honey dew that is secreted
by certain mealy bugs and scales that
are most injurious, and it will go to
any lengths to protect them from be-
ing destroyed Or harmed in any way.
In Louisiana they have discovered
a way of trapping these ants. They
construct nests and when they all
congregate there, as they will in rainy
weather, they can destroy them.
In California they poison them with
poison syrup. When they are once
gone it is easy enough to deal with
their friends.

OId-Time Skating Clubs.

AS early us 1742 skating clubs were
formed in Scotland. The first Amer
lean club was established in PhiladeI-
phia in 1S49, and quickly attained the
prominence it still holds for artistic
performance. Due to the efforts of
this club the skate came into its own,
for in 1850 Philadelphia brought to
bear the skill of the surgical instru-
ment maker to produce the modern
steel blade and foot plate.
The Boston arena-until its destruc-
ton by fire some time ago-held first
place among the worlds Kinks as pos
sessing the largest indoor skating area
in the world. This record has now
probably passed to Princes Skating
club in London. The building itself
is as solid and enduring as most Brit
ish institutions, and the walls in the
rink proper are adorned with splendid
friezes of winter scenes.

all sections of the country relative to
the proper construction of suitable
apple storage.
Federal investigation of the handl-
ing and storage of apples, which have
been conducted with special reference
to the Pacific Northwest, have shown
that properly insulated storage pro-
vided with the nacessaray means OF
ventilation, can be successfully opel-
ated, and allow the grower to hold
his fruit in prime condition for The
market.
Care in the operation of these stor-
age houses is just as important as. ir
their construction. The best of stor-
age houses sometimes fail through the
carelessness of the owners in neglect
ing to provide proper ventilation fol
the building, particularly as regards
the provision of ventilators which
may be kept open when the tempera'
ture conditions outside make 1T deslr'
able, while the ventilators should be
closed whenever the outside tempera'
lures are higher than those inside tho
house. Carefully worked out plans
and drawings are being prepared By
the United States Department of Ag'
riculture and will be sent free on re-
quest to any farmer.
The early commercial storage
houses were insulated with mill shay
ings and sawdust, Investigations by
the Federal department demonstrate
ing that these materials are ideally
suited for insulation and not so ex'
pcnsive as cardboard and other pre-
pared insulation materials. 1t is es'
sential to keep all insulation material
dry, this being why shavings are pre-
ferred to sawdust, as it is difficult tt
obtain dry sawdust in large quaint
ties. On the other hand, planer-mll
shavings made from seasoned lumber
require no artificial drying and should
be tightly packed in the wall, which
must be at least inches thick. The
outside wall of the storage house
should be composed of two layers OF
boards between which waterproof
paper should be used. 1t is not essen
.ial to duplicate this in the inside
wall, as here only one thickness OF
boards may be used in the interest OF
cheaper construction, although such
an arrangement is not as satisfactory

serve moisture. If level cultivation is
practiced, good seed ed usually can
be prepared by disking and narrowing
after the crop is removed. # weeds
are present, however, it may be advls-
able to go over the ground with a
disk harrow, pillow shallow and disk
again.
If wheat is to follow cotton, the
stalks should be plowed under as soon
as picking can be finished and the
blowing should be deep to bury the
stalks completely that by way of
destroying the boil Weevil. Disking
or narrowing is not advisable, as it
unearths the buried stalks. The land
should be frmed with roller and the
wheat sown with disk drill.
Late Flowing Should DC Shallow
There are said to be exceptions to
all general rules, and there may be
one or two exceptions to this rule OF
early blowing for wheat. If it rains
a great deal during July and August
early blowing can not be done. But,
fortunately, the exception appears to
come in just there. Early blowing is
not so essential in wet seasons. But
it may be well to observe this eau
ton; If you have to pillow late, pillow
shallow where there is danger of win
ter killink. Shallow blowing makes
the flmlng of the seed bed an easier
matter and is measure Of insurance
against winter killing.

this area, the mistake is often made
of thinking that there will always be
enough moisture present for max
imum crop of wheat. The result is
that poor crops are often harvested
where a little more attention to mols-
ture preservation would have assured
good crops"
Harrow Close After Plow.
If wheat is to be grown on stable
land, the ground should be ploWed
at least 7 inches deep Immediately
after harvesting the crop of grain.
The harrow should closely follow the
plow, both operations being done the
same day and as close together as
possible. After that, cultivation
should be given as often as neces-
sary which usually means as often as
possible until the wheat is sown.
The cultivation may be with harrow
or disk or drag or roller. 1t accom-
plishes several desirable things. 1t
kills the weeds. 1t settles the sub
soil and makes it firm. 1t MAIN
tains soil mulch above. And none
of these things can be done if the
ground is not plowed early.
Now "early blowing" is an lndetl-
mite term. 1t may mean one thing
to one farmer and an entirely differ
cnt thing to another farmer. But it
is thing for which exact dates can
hardly be set. July blowing is GER
tainly early blowing for winter wheat.
The first half of August is early
blowing "As early as possible" is
! the safe rule. AS soon as the wheat
or oats or clover is off, or as soon
as it can be got off, is the time to
begin blowing.
Disking A Help
Some makeshifts may help a good
deal. 1t is absolutely impossible to
begin blowing as soon as the ground
is clear of this years crop, double
disking should be resorted to at once.
That chops up and at least partly
pulverizes the top soil-makes a pas
sable mulch and retains much of the
moisture until the blowing can be
done. Also, it kills the weeds or, at
least cripples them enough to mini
mize the damage they can do by
sucking the moisture out of the soil.
If wheat is to follow cultivated
crop, such as corn or soy beans, fire.
quent cultivation given to that crop
will maintain soil mulch and pre-

A good seed bed for wheat can not
be made unless the work is begun
early, and good seed bed is the
most important thing in growing
wheat.
Many things are necessary In pre-
pairing a good seed bed, but the first
essential is time. 1t can not be done
in a day nor yet in week. There
must be many days of setting. There
must be some good, packing rains.
And there ought to be frequent Gull
tivation of the soil.
Those things are necessary because
a good seed bed for wheat must be
firm and it must be moist. The upper
inches Of soil must be mellow and
finely divided, and the portion be-
meath must be we'll compactcd.
Flowing May Vary.
Essentials to successful wheat
growing vary widely in different sec
lions of the country, but the United
States Department of Agriculture re-
CARDS these things as basic essentials
anywhere that wheat is grown in the
United States. The wheat experts
of the department may recommend
one type of blowing for one section
and other kinds of blowing for other
sections, and even no blowing at all
under some conditions, but finely
pulverized top soil well packed down
and forming a perfect union with
the subsoil is urged for every section
EARLY polwing and thorough till
age of the plowed soil results in re-
tanning the water that is in the soil
and catching and storing the water
that falls after cultivation is begun.
A firm seed bed under this mulch en-
ables the young wheat plants to make
use of the subsoils waters. Sufficient
moisture is thus assured for the ger
mination of the seed and for the
early fall growth of the seedlings
a much more important thing, the
experts say, than wheat growers con-
slider it. 1t does not apply, as some
might think, just to the semiarid re-
gions.
"If the Importance of this thing
were generally recognized throughout
the socalled humid areas" says one
of the wheat experts Of the depart
ment of Agriculture, "there would be
less frequent losses from drought and
better wheat crops would result. In
