July Flowing Best

Every wheat-grower, who is a
close observer, will recall that early
blowing produces better yield of
wheat, but how early does this
meant Repeated experiments show
that it means, at least as early as
the middle of July, says R. R.
Hudelson, of the University of Mis-
souri, College of Agriculture at Co.
lumbia. In careful experiments
July plowing has yielded double
the amount of September plow
ing
The reasons for this are the stor.
age of plant food and moisture in
plowed soil. Natural processes are
constantly making plant food avail
able, but if weeds are growing in
the stubble, they Immediately take
up this food and the moisture need.
ed for growth. They give up this
plant food, when plowed under, but
wheat cannot feed on weed stems
and the process of turning them
back into an available form is very
slow. AS a result. the young wheat
is prevented from getting well
established, before winter sets in
Even the occasional cultivation, tc
keeps weeds out of early blowing
helps, by letting air into the sol
and Fastening the process of max
ing plant food available.
Other advantages of early plow'
ing for wheat are the turning un.
der of all stubble and trash, togeth
er with any insects harbored ir
them. Weeds are prevented from
seeding, too. II also permits the
wheat to be seeded late enough, tc
avoid Hessian fly. and still make {
good rapid growth, before winter
on account of the stored-up fooC
and quick growth.
The rush of farm work makes
early blowing very difficult. but ii
should be realized that eyery daN
of delay reduces the yield of mex
years wheat crop. The stacking o
wheat will often help TO get it ou
of the way for blowing, and giv'
time before threshing.

State Motor License

Up TO July there have been 205,-
800 motor vehicles registered in Mis-
souri, for the current registration
year which began February 1. The
registration to date shows an in
crease of 17,720 more machines in
the state than were registered for
the entire year Of 1918.
St. Louis has 38,506 automobiles,
1858 chauffeurs and 1,160 motor
cycles. Kansas City has 27,S50 au-
tomobiles. 3,142 chauffeurs and 619
motorcycles.
The registration has brought TO
the good roads fund this year ST.
532 543 As, or $137,78l 26 more

Exodus of Aliens

Various reasons are assigned for
the exodus of aliens from this coun-
try to the land of their birtb,-help-
ing TO rebuild their home-lands the
desire to locate near relatives not
heard from since the war began, the
settling of estates, and the coming
enforcement of the Prohibition law,
which would involve real hardship
to many people accustomed to the
temperate use of beer, wine, and
stronger liquors. and who cannot
get used to the dust that passes for
tea and the compounds called coffee.
But by far the strongest reason in
fluencing many foreigners who have
made their home here for some
years to depart hence is the burden
of taxation under which they labor;
and they are Intelligent enough to
know that it is more likely to in
crease than to diminish. Figures
gathered Oh the relative taxation
resulting from the war show that
France and Italy increased their
taxation only about 6 per cent.
Great Britain about 100 per cent,
and the United States about 1000
per cent, The fact is that the most
desirable class of foreigners are be-
ing driven from our country, while
the most undesirable class are bent
on remaining and doing all the mis-
chief in their power.

It's Never Too Late

There are many illustrious names
which might be cited to prove the
truth of the common saying that 1T
is never too late to learn" Even at
advanced years men can do much,
if they will determine on making a
beginning. Sir Henry Spelman did
not begin the study of science until
he was between fifty and sixty years
of age. Franklin was fifty before
he fully entered upon the study of
natural philosophy. Dryden and
Scott were not known as authors
until each was in his fortieth year
Boccaccio was thirty five when be
commenced his literary career, and
Alfieri was forty-six when he began
the study of Greek. DR.. Arnold
learned German at an advanced
age, for the purpose of reading Nei.
bur in the original; and in like man.
ner James Watt, when about forty,
while working at his trade of an in-
strument.maker in Glasgow. learned
French. German and Italian, to en-
able him to peruse the valuable
works on mechanical philosophy
which existed in those languages
Thomas Scott was fifty-six before he
began to learn Hebrew. Robert Hall
was once found lying upon the floor,
racked by pain, learning Italian in
his old age, to enable him to judge
of the parallel drawn by Macauley
between Milton ana Dante. Handel
was forty eight before he published
any of his great works, Indeed,
hundreds of instances might be
given of men who struck out an en-.
tirely new path, and successfully
entered on new studies, at a COM
paratively advanced time of life.
None but the frivolous or the in
dolent will say: Il am too old to
learn"

General James G.. Harbord. hcad "i

congratulated upon his arrival here on
his escape from capture by bandits II

Part of the mission was attacked ANA

mission narrowly escaping death.
The attack came while the caravan
was proceeding through the valley OF
the AraXcs, but fortunately General
Iarbord's car had reached the plain
leading 10 Erivan before the attack wa
made. 1t is believed thgt had he been
captured he would have been hcld Tor
ransom by thc bandits.
The original reason for the attack ap-
pears to be that bands who are warning
with the Armcnians doubted the M
tiOnality of the Americans. After the
bandit chiefs had assured themselves
that their prisoners were really Amer
leans they were released. their auto.
mobiles were restored and most of their
property, which had been stolen, was
given back to them.
The chiefs declared they desired peace,
but asserted that peace was possible
only if some strong outside power in b
tcrvencd. They expressed the fear that
thousands would die of starvation this
winter owing to unsettled conditions in
Armenia.
What happened to the mission is an

IF BACKACHY OR
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat less meat and take glass Of
Salts to flush out Kidneys
Drink plenty water.

Uric acid in meat excites the kidneys,
they become overworked; get sluggish,
ache, and feel like humps of lead. The
urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irri-
tated, and you may be obliged to seek re-
lief two or three times during the night.
When the kidneys clog you must help
them flush off the body's urinous waste
or you'll be real sick person shortly,
At first you feel a dull misery in the kid
ney region, you suffer from backache,
sick headache, dizziness, stomach gets
sour, tongue coated and you feel rheu-
matte twinges when the weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four ounces
of Jad Salts; take tablespoonful
in a glass of water before breakfast
for few dSyg and your kidneys will
then act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to clean clogged kidneys
and stimulate them to normal activity,
also to neutralize the acids in urine, so
it no longer is source of irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone should
take now and then TO keep the kidneys
clean and active. Druggists here say
they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who
believe in overcoming kidney trouble
while it is only trouble.
