SOW CRIMSON CLOVER

Prepare now field for crimson
clover, and SOW the seed at once.
Every farmer should have a winter
pasture for his cows, pigs, and
chickens. Your success or failure
depends upon what you do right
now.
Early preparation of the soil is
ESSENTIAL, and today is none too early.
Also it is not too early for alfalfa,
red clover, or even wheat prepara-
ton.
Weather conditions last year were
very exceptional, but you must not
be misled this year by them. We
had plenty of rain in the fall and an
open winter such as few Of us have
ever seen. All this experience does
is to emphasize the need for plenty
of water for early growth. Water
is not always given to you in
abundance at the proper time; there
fore you must save it in the soil
by early preparation and early cul-
tivation.
You have noticed, l am sure, that
clover. will prosper more in
to July plowed land
against September blowing than will
wheat. In fact, the time of blowing
may determine altogether whether
or not you get a stand, which is the
primary factor to success.
Plow today, and order your seed
in plenty of time. Seeds can be
procured from local dealers, or thru

in a spray pump. If a pump is not
available a brush or broom may be
used. Care should be taken to cover
tie side walls and ceiling, after
which the floor should be cleaned
and the refuse deposited on the
ground a considerable distance from
the premises. This method will rid
the farm entirely of lice and mites.
All old roosters should be given
a second treatment. They are the
worst lice and mite carriers Of the

CASH FROM TRASH
VIVA. One Careful Housewife Dis
covered.

Quite as thrilling story as any
Luther Burbank has TO tell was told
by Mrs. Edmund NJ. Parker at a re-
cent meeting OF the Cambridge. Mass.
branch OF the Special Aid Society for
American Preparedness. Besides be-
ing chairman of the Speakers Bureau
of the Special Aid, Mrs. Parker holds
the same Office in the Savings Divi-
sion of New England. 1t was in this
latter capacity that she had secured
Mrs. F. L. Higginson, director of the
division, and Mrs. II. Parker Whit
tington, director of the Salvage Bureau
which has been organized for the
Division, to address the previous
meeting of the Special Aid.
Now Mrs. Parker is good house
keeper, but after she listened to those
two speakers she went home and set
to work. Old newspapers and lot
Of pasteboard boxes, in one Of which
was a collection of old calling cards
saved from the days before there was
a Social Register, and magazines too
old to be given TO anybody, we're her
first finds" In the basement were
boxes of rusty nails. several hand
bells, old bicycle chains, padlocks
and keys that fitted nothing.
Everything was gathered together
and then a Salvage" card was put
in the window. Soon there was a
call from an excited junkman, who
said the Salvage Bureau told him he
was to pay for junk with Thrift
Stamps whenever he saw that sign.
He offered thirty cents for sixty old
bottles; the zinc in an old ice box
brought ten cents. In all he left 81
worth OF Thrift Stamps behind him.
Encouraged Mrs. Parker searched
her bookcases, and harvested $11.75
from them. A box Of discarded and
broken silver brought s10.5s, and by
the additional investment OF Liberty
Bond coupons Mrs. Parker secured in
one month Si4 in Thrift and War
Savings Stamps.
Because Of associations an old
watch had been kept, but now the
country needs the gold, and what
would not be given over for personal
gain is TO be offered upon the altar
OF a country's need. When the youth
OF the nation gave freely of their
lives, 1t Is a small thing. Mrs. Parker
says, TO give to that same cause arti-
cles which have outlived their useful
ness and are mere reminders of days
that are past.

FRAMING A BUDGET
A Help to Wise Spending Rather
Than to Parsimony.

Mr.. J. H. Puelicher, State Di-
rector of War Savings for Wisconsin.
has prepared a budget for incomes
from $500 year upward, which has
been pronounced practicable.
The budget provides 40 per cent for
food, clothing 1S per cent, shelter 1s
per cent. fuel and light Z per cent,
sundries. including savings, 20 per
cent. He considers the following q
fair example: Food $3.50, clothing
SLIT, shelter s163, light and fuel
S6S.S0, recreation S36, church and
charities $24, insurance S4S. carfare
$3.50, savings $26. miscellaneous. in,
Guiding literature, SIT.
For $4,000 income the proportions
suggested are: Food $40, clothing
$500, shelter $3.50, light and fuel $114,
recreation Sl0S, church and charities
$72. insurance sos, carfare $3.50. saw
ings $3.50, miscellaneous, including lit
erature and physician, $3.50, help in
house $3.50. Some items are too low
for eastern conditions, notably hous
ing and carfare, while others might be
reduced.
To save is imperative. Some
people are born thrifty, some achieve
thrift, but most OF us have thrift
thrust upon us by high prices and
restricted incomes. To all the budget
Is the universal help. and as a safe
investment for small savings, Wal
Savings Stamps should be the FIRST
consideration after the necessities.

WHY BUY WAR SAVINGS
STAMPS I?
By Jennie Glover Brown.

By Jennie Glover Brown.
Because:
For many years we fooled ourselves
That things could perfect be
Only when they were trademarked
With the stamp OF Germany.
AS time went on the climax came
To their efficiency,
When War of diabolic type
Was Made In Germany!
Man wants but little here below,
Nor wants that little long,
But Wilhelm tried to get the earth,
And Wilhelm got in wrong;
For we bought bonds and Savings
Stamps,
That Uncle Sam might send
The food and ammunition that
Would hasten the wars end.
We Hooverized and Storowized
For our dear country's sake,
But we would not be Kaiserized
We had too much at stake.
Twas not the time to reason why!
We knew such things must be
To speed the movement that would
kill
The Germ in Germany!
The food we save, the bonds we buy,
And stamps, for many a post,
Are paying toward the barbecue
On which said Bill will roast
That's why we buy the Savings
Stamps,
And we win buy until
A League of Nations shall decide
To free this world of Bill.

DAILY HEALTH TALKS
The Troubles Women Have
BY L. MAC LEAN. MD.

Probably no man in America was ever
better qualified TO successfully treat the
diseases peculiar to women than DIR.
Pierce, Of Buffalo, N. Y. The cases that
come TO HIM run into many thousands,
giving him an experience that rarely
comes to any one man. DR.. Pierce found
that in nearly every case there were certain
vegetable growths which rarely failed to
give prompt relief in those feminine dis
orders IRON which so many women suffer.
He combined these roots and herbs into q
temperance medicine that he called DR.
Piercc's Favorito Prescription, for that is
precisely what il was This medicine is
sold in both liquid and tablet form by drug
gists everywhere. Favorite Prescription
Is distinct remedy for women and acts
directly upon the organs that characterize
the sex. IL is not necessary to take a long
course Of treatment with this standard
medicine. A weakly, sickly, backachy,
headaohy, nervous, respondent woman,
with regular or irregular pains-with temi-
nine disorders that come in youth or
middle AGES pretty sure to find in DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription the exact
remedy that her condition calls for, and
to find IL after very few doses are taken.
Why women should allow themselves to
stay sick when n very little money spent
for this remedy will probably make them
well, is something no one can explain.
All women who suffer from feminine dis
orders are invited TO write the Faculty Of
the Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y, for FREQ
confidential consultation and advice, no
charge being made for this high profession
al service. This will enable every woman
TO benefit by the advice of the distinguish
cd corps Of physicians which DIR, Pierce
has gathered about him in his celebrated
Buffalo institution.
When constipation is present with
feminine disorders, DIR. Pierce's Pleasant

SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR TO ANY SHADE
Don't stay Gray! Here's an Old.
time Recipe that Anybody

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re.
storing faded. gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother
time. She used 1t to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attrac.
tive. Whenever her hair took on that
dull, faded or streaked appearance,
this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home IS mussy and
out-ofdate. Nowadays by asking at
any drug store for n bottle of "Wyeth'S
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you
will get this famous old preparation
improved by the addition of other in
gradients. which can he depended up
on TO restore natural color and beauty
to the hair.
A wcll-known downtown d-iggist
says II darkens the hair so nat lrany
and evenly that nobody can tell II has
been applied You simply dampen a
sponge or soft bra. with II and draw
this through y0nr hair taking one
strand Mt time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears. and after an
other application or two, II becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.-Adv.
