Montamat has lived in Nashville for
nearly thirty years and is highly re-
spected by all who know him.
Before my wife took Tanlac she
suffered so badly from gas on her stoIn-

she felt like she was smotherihg to-
death. She actually had to sit up in
bed, to get her breath.

BETTER PROFITS IN POULTRY
Specialists Of Department of AgricuI-
ture Give Reasons for Favorinu
Standard Breds.

Here are fiva reasons given by spe-
cialists of the United States Depart.
ment of Agriculture for keeping
standardized poultry:
Standardized poultry is more uni
form in size, type and color.
Standardized poultry is more at
tractive in appearance and appeals
more strongly to purchasers of stock
and eggs.
Standardized poultry offers
greater combination of practical and
useful qualities suitable to the needs
Of the farmer and poultry keeper.
The products of standardized fowls
are more uniform in quality, are in.
greater demand, and bring better
prices.
Standardized poultry means great
er success and better profits.

EARLY POTATOES
NEED GOOD CARE
Weak and Improperly Filled Con-
tainers and Lack of Ventila-
ton Cause of Loss.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
More care in loading cars will pre-
vent much damage in shipments OF
new potatoes, say specialists OF the
bureau of markets, United States De
partment of Agriculture, discussing
methods of loading and types of con-
tainers in use. Shifting Of the loads
in transit, weak and partly filled pack
ages, and lack Of proper ventilation
are found to be responsible for losses
in many cars arriving at markets. Cau-
tion against loading diseased potatoes
is also urged because of the large
number of shipments that show scab,
wilt, or late blight, and in some cases
are practically worthless when they
reach the market.
Press Potatoes Firmly In Barrels.
The double-headed ventilated bar
rel, it is said, appears to be the best
package for new potatoes that is
now in general use. If properly made,
1t protects the potatoes as well as
holds them in place. Much less break
age has been found in cars where the
barrels are loaded on end than when
loaded on their bilge. Wooden strips
should be placed on top of the lower
layers Of barrels for the upper layers
to rest upon.
There Is one serious objection to this
method of loading. In some instances
the barrels appear to be slack measure
when they arrive at the market, due to
the jolting in transit. This fault, how
ever, it is said, can be largely elm
mated if growers will fill their barrels
full and use a press when heading.
Loading barrels on their bilge is said
not to be a safe practice unless head
liners (strips to prevent heads bulg-
ing) are used. 1t is said that the
use of headliners would prevent nine
tenths of the breakage in all types Of
loads with barrels. Records show
that practically every car has from 8

thinking of all the things which make
US want to be thankful.
"Of course we can't always say our
thanks, but even then we can feel
gratitude or thanks,
1--WE can't very well say thank you
to the sun for shining or to the rain
for coming when the ground is dry
and needs a cooling drink. We can't
very well say thank you to the flowers
which come out in the spring and in
the summer. We can't very well say
thank you to- the stars for blinking and
twinkling and smiling at creatures by
night.
''The stars are too far away and SO

Then the Beetles grinned in their
Beetle fashion and crawled off to ask
the other Black Beetles to come to Mr..

All the Beetles came, and there were
many, many Black Beetles at the
party. Mr. Benjamin Beetle and Mr..
Billy Beetle also belonged to the Black
Beetle family. and they were very
much excited over the party.
The guests all had an extremely
good time. They played games, they
climbed on each others backs and had
a gay Beetle frolic.
They had good things to eat and
some of them sang little songs, very
funny little buzzing, squealing songs,
which they all thought were very
lovely.
There are some creatures" said
Mr.. Black Beetle, "who think that the
blue lake yonder, which is surrounded
by those blue hills, is the loveliest
sight in the world, and others think
the shadows which play over the lake
are the loveliest, but to my Beetle
mind there is nothing like gathering

a lovely, lovely sightr'

the soil may be stirred between the
rows and the plants kept growing rap
idly so as to attain reasonable size
before the heated term of early sum-
mer sets in.
In the North it is customary to SOW
the seed broadcast about the 25th of
July on land from which early peas,
early potatoes, or some other early
crop has been removed. The land is
raked smooth and the small seeds sim
ply scattered over the surface, then
covered by again raking the soil. No
cultivation is required where the seeds
are sown broadcast.
In the southern states turnips are
frequently destroyed by plant lice that
suck the juices of the leaves. These
insects are rather difficult to control,
spraying with nicotine preparations be-
ing about the only remedy.
Turnips stand considerable cold, but
those that are to be placed in pits or
in the cellar for winter use should not
be allowed to freeze before being
stored. If they become frozen in stor-
age, they should not be disturbed until
they thaw naturally.

That the use of good purebred sires

A Minnesota breeder in Kittson coun-

quarts of crude carbolic acid. Apply

properly put on, not only kills the
mites, but destroys all their eggs ana
makes the house or any building where
it is used fresh and clean.
Cleanliness is of the greatest i'm
portance in keeping lice, mites. feas,
and other insects under control The
poultry houses, roosts, dropping
boards, brood coops, and all other
places that the fowls occupy should be
kept clean. An abundance of light and
fresh air should be provided. While
these things cannot be depended on to
keep away lice and mites, they make
ii easier to determine when the pests
are present and help to keep the
fowls healthy, vigorous, and better
able to withstand an attack of lice
and mites. Sick or diseased fowls
are always the first victims of these
parasites, which makes it important
that the fowls be kept healthy.

needed when barrels are loaded on

Prevent Barrels Rolling.
Wooden strips should be placed
across the floor at frequent intervals
in order to prevent the lower barrels
from rolling. Use of rocks for this
purpose IOcalizes the strain and causes
much breakage. Strips should also be
placed across the doors to prevent the
barrels on the upper layer from failing
against and jamming the doors.
The sack, it is said, is not suitable
