IS YOUR WOODLAND PRoDUo-
TIVE.
Judicious Management Will Make Ii
So-Consult the State
Forester.

Timber has now gotten so valuable
that no one who owns woodlands can
afford to let them lie idle or to be
less productive than it is possible to
make them.
At this time Of year, the farmer is
making plans for the next crop sea-
son. In making plans for field crops,
he should not neglect his woodlands
and his timber crop which may be
the further means Of producing the
immediate revenue needed to finance
some of his other farm operations.
The average woodland consists OF
trees of many different species, much
differing in relative value. II the
woodland has been well protected
there will probably be on the ground
trees of all ages, from the tiny seed.
| ling up to those of mature growth.
| 1t is possible by judicious manage
ment to harvest a succession OF
| timber crops from the woodlands at
a few years interval, thus putting
the woodland on much the same
basis as the cultivated land. In
selecting the trees to be cut and
those to save for further growth,
wise selection must be made. There
are certain weed trees to be elimi-
mated, overgrown trees to be taken
out in order to give more light and
growing space for the younger trees.
| trimmings should be made where the
trees stand too close together and in
some cases it will be necessary to
plant open spaces with seed or young
trees of the right kind in order to
bring the woodland up to further
production These are operations
similar to the tending of field crop,
and can be easily carried out in the
winter when other farm work is not
pressing.
There is scarcely a tract Of wood
land in the State that cannot be
greatly improved and the best part
of it is that this improvement can
generally be brought about by a cut
| ting operation which will net the
owner a considerable revenue. The
State Board of Forestry, S15 Calvert
Building, Baltimore, has worked out
a plan for handling woodlands that
has proven entirely satisfactory in
hundreds of cases. Every owner
should have his woodlands examined
by an expert to know what he has
and how he can get the most out of
it. The service is free.

A CURE FOR PNEUMONIA.

This POultice Will Cure Pneumonia
Owing to the prevalence of pneu
monia and the mortality therefrom
during the winter and spring severa
Boards of Health in Northern New
Jersey have been taking measures OF
protection. The Board of Health Of
Washington, Warren county, has
published remedy which is said te
be a sure cure for pneumonia, and
the other Health Boards are looking
into the matter with view of hav.
ing the tidings spread abroad for the
good of the public. This is the
remedy:
Take six to ten onions. according
to size, and chop them up fine. Put
them in large pan over a hot fire
then add the same quantity of rye
meal, or middlings, and vinegar
enough to form thick paste. Stir
thoroughly and let simmer for five
to ten minutes, then put in cotton
bag large enough TO cover the lungs
and apply to chest as hot as patient
can bear. In about ten minutes ap-
ply another, and thus continually re-
heating the poultices and in a few
hours tho patient will be out OF
danger.
"The above formula I have used
both for humans and animals. and
know it to be all right, and hereby
make it public in Christian spirit
that may help my fellowman in his
need"

KEPT BOY AWAY
FROM SCHOOL HE
LOOKED so BAD
Mother Says That Earle's
Hypo- Cod Stopped This
Cough-Made Him
Strong. Well.
KIDS GET FAT ON THIS
FINE TONIC SAY MOTHERS.

my boy coughed SO bad we had to
keep him out Of school. All of the
old time cough remedies failed and
he was so wornout and weak we were
at loss to know what to give him,
when happily we saw in the paper
where parents were praising Earle's
Hypo-Cod to the sky as a medicine
for such troubles and he has taken
two bottles now and / recommend it
too for it is exactly as represented.
He is back in school. 1t took right
hold of his case and stopped his
cough in no time, he began looking
better right away and is stronger, ;"
declared Mrs. J. ]. Dunlay, 2023 N.
Capital St., Washington, D. C.
Children fattcn up, get rosy,
strong, and robust according to par
ents after taking just bottle or
two of this tonic and they like to
take it because it tastes so nice.
Underweight children thrive ON it
and fast growing kids are helped a
lot. Doctors recommend it and il
contains just what a backward, thin,
frail, sickly child needs according to
eminent authorities. Just read the
formula on the bottle, you can then
see why such excellent results are
being obtained by thousands of users.
Earle's Hypo-Cod is sold here by
Eli T. Reynolds and the leading
druggists in all nearby towns. Price
$1.25 plus &c war tax.

Relief will make to the country In
February for funds to support its
work among the starving peoples of
that stricken land. To the Wash
ington meeting he wrote:
"Advices and information coming
from the Near East cannot be doubt
ed. There is great actual suffering
and famine. These people, recently
become Independent and released
from bitter thraldom, cannot sup
port themselves. And the Christian
and common instincts Of humanity
which have prompted the people OF
the United States during the last
two years to relieve the distress
and needs. especially Of the Near
East, must not be allowed to grow
cold and be diminished.
II hope we shall all unite in this
present emergency and be able to
collect sufficient funds to enable
these peoples to live and work until
next summer brings them perma-
nent relief and subsistence. call
upon all to respond generously to
the appeal now being made and
trust that the committee will be
gratified with the results"

Chicago, July e.--Prospeots for still
lower clothing prices are very bright,
according To 400 retail dry goods mer-
chants hero attending the sixth annual
convention.
Within the last three months clothing
prices have siumped in some casea, 80
per cent or more. Suits that were marked
500 three months ago are now offered ate
&35 and the merchants arc anxious to
sell. Bankers put highly effectual check
on the skyrockrting clothing prices by
refusing 10 advance any more money
whereby merchants could stock up ON
goods Mt exofbtant rates, Tnasrmlch as
the merchants had to have money, they
began 10 unload. The same pincers are
now being applied 90 shoe dealers and
where they refuse to take over immense
surplus stocks from manufacturers who
must have funds, the latter rent buildings
and conduct cut rate sales. This ~ break
ing the market wide open.
Merchants assembled here say there
will be no appreciable drop in cotton
goods, but wool prices arc due for Notice
able decline. The short cotton crop,
short hours Of labor. and the greet de.
,nand for cotton goods viii keep those
stocks fairly cloee TO the present figures.
