If You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says Take for
example DR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation l have sold for many yeats
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle OF
Swamp-Ro by Parcels Post. Address
DIR. Kilmer & Co. Binghamton, n. Y,
and enclose ten cents; also mention this
paper. Large and medium size bottles
for sale at all drug stores.-Adv.

RELEASE DAIRY COWS QUICK
Jerk of Lever Unties Animals in Barn
at Soldiers Home Farm Near
Washington.

There is in practice at the United
States soldiers home dairy farm in
Washington, D. c., method by which
every COW on either side of the barn
may, in case of fire. be released by
the jerk of a lever. Each COW is tied
by a chain, the last link of which is
fitted over a projection Of rod which
extends along the entire length of the
manager and is connected with a lever
at either end When this lever is pull
ed the projections of the rod into each
chain are drawn out and all of the
COWS are released. A surprise fire
drill is given about once month. At
one of these drills recently 125 COWS
we're taken from the barns in less than
two minutes, which is good record.

POTATO GRADES.
ARE UNCHANGED
Specifications Determined by
Thorough Investigation by
Bureau of Markets.
GRADE FANCY RECOMMENDED
Large Percentage of Crop Should
Meet Requirements of Grade No.
defective Stock, When Pres
ent, Must Be Removed.

standard grades for potatoes were
recommended by the United States de-
partment of agriculture and the United
States food administration on Sep
tember 10, 1917. The specifications
were determined by thorough investi-
cations conducted by the bureau of
markets of the United States depart
ment of agriculture
In order to reduce waste and con-
serve transportation facilities during
the war emergency the food admins
tration issued a rule, effective Janu-
airy 81, 1918, requiring the use of the
United States potato grades by Ii
censed dealers. The results obtained
were SO satisfactory that when this
regulation was Cancelled on December
10, 1918, the use of the grades, to a
large extent, was continued volun-
tarily. The universal use of the stand
ards during the war emergency afford
markets an excellent opportunity to
study in detail the various specifica-
tons. and determine whether any
changes were desirable. AS a result
few changes were recommended on
February 10, 1919.
Because of the large, bright, smooth
potatoes grown in some regions, espe-
cially in sections of the western
states, those interested demanded a
grade with higher requirements than
those of United States grade No. 1, in
order to provide for stock of high
IF trade. To meet this demand, the
United States grade Fancy now is rec
commended, in addition TO United
States grade No. and United States
grade No. 9.
This recommendation does not mean
that all crops of potatoes should be
sorted into three grades. A large per-
centage Of the commercial crop in
most of the potato-producing sections
Of the country should meet the re-
quirements of United States grade No.
|, and this grade will provide for most
of the trade demands. Potatoes of
better than average quality can be
carefully graded and sold as United
States grade Fancy, while smaller po-
tatoes, or those Of inferior quality,
can be marketed as United States
grade No. 2. 1t is probable that many
of the commercial potato-producing
sections will have little use for the
limited States grade Fancy.
Observations made in the producing
sections show that there is a ten
dcncy to regard sizing as the only es-
sential TO proper grading. 1t should
he emphasized that in addition to

CULTiVATlNG ALFALFA CROP
Number of implements on Market
Better Than Common Disk
sPringtooth Harrow Superior

The common disk harrow has been
used more than any other implement
for cultivating the alfalfa field, but it
is not as satisfactory as the spring
tooth harrow or alfalfa renovatOr. In
fact. there are q number of imple-
ments on the market superior to the
common disk for cultivating alfalfa
fields. If man has only small acre
age of alfalfa probably he cannot af-
ford TO purchase a special implement
for cultivating his alfalfa. When the
common disk is used ii should be set
with very slight angle and then
heavily weighted. In this way it will
destroy the weeds and grass without
iniuring the alfalfa plants TO any
great extent.
