Cover crops hold the orchard soil
from washing, prevent burning out hui

hogs, calves, poultry and small stock,
and furnish an excellent mulch and
soil cover for the trees. If the or

should not be pastured too close.
Enough growth should be made by the
cover crop for winter to furnish good
mulch that will catch and hold snow

Weekly Health Talks
"A Word About the
Kidneys
BY DOCTOR WATSON.

People are easily frightened when they
think something is the matter with their
lungs or heart, and well they may be; but
few people understand the dangers of dis
eased kidneys. These organs have duty
of vital Importance to perform, and if they
are diseased, there is no telling how or
where the symptoms may appear. The
kidneys are filters, and when they are
healthy they remove the poisons from the
blood and purify it. When the kidneys
are diseased, the posons are spread every
where, and one of these poisons is uric
acid. The uric acid is carried all through
the system and deposited in various places,
in the form If urate salts-in the feet,
ankles, wrists and back-often forming
bags under the eyes. Sometimes the result
ing trouble is called rheumatism lusnbago,
sciatica and backache. Finally, come stone
in the bladder, diabetes and Bright's dis
ease.
DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, in recent
years, discovered that a certain combina-
ton of remedies would dissolve uric acid
(urate salts) in the system. He found this
combination to be harmless, so that he
made it up in tablets, of double strength,
and called them Anuric Tablets. They
dissolve uric acid in the human system as
hot coffee dissolves sugar. If you have
uric acid troubles. don't delay in taking
Anuric Tablets, which can be secured in
the drug stores. You can write DR.. Pierce.
