Do your shoes wear through
like this?

II 50, you probably have a callous on
the sole Of your foot directly above
the worn spot on the sole of your
shoe.
This spot wears through because
one or more of the bones in the ball
of your foot is out of normal posi-
ton and lower than those on either
side Of it.
The abnormal pressure on this spot,
besides making the shoe wear out
quickly, may cause Morton's toe or
other pain at that point. Frequently
callous forms on the foot In time
the callous becomes very sensitive.
The distortion may cause pain in the
toes, ankle, calf, knee, thigh, hip,
back, and sometimes in the back of
the neck.

WHAT'S IN THE NAME

widely distributed as any other le-
guminous forage crop. and Is used for
nearly every purpose for which forage
crops are employed. II Is remarkable
for its ability to grow on poor soil.
TO resist cold, drought, and alkali. and
for Its comparative immunity from In
sects and diseases.
Despite all these advantages, hairy
vetch is not one of the major forage
crops. The acreage Ia far below that

age specialists OF the United States
Department Of Agriculture say that
this crop could be probably grown on
great many more farms.
Hairy vetch. with all Its excellent
qualities. is not without some objec-
tlonabie features. Perhaps the most
serious is that II will not stand up
right without support. As n hay crop,
therefore, II must be planted with rape
or some other stiff-stalked crop. There
is sometimes difficulty In getting a
stand and on the other hand In ex-
terminating II when II Is once estab-
lished.
The hieh cost OF seeding has been
perhaps the principal factor In pre-
venting It's general use. Specialists
hold out no hope for cheap seed, but
they assert that the advantages OF the
crop are sufficient to justify its plant
ing even at high cost. This Is particu'
larly true. they say, in the states bor'
derlng on the Great Lakes and In most
OF the Atlantic and Gulf coast states.
