IT WAS A WINNER
FOR Me- HE SAYS
I'm Enjoying Perfect Health Since
Taking Tanlac," Says Mime

Northwestern Telephone Co.
Before I got hold Of Tanlac my
troubles of three years standing had
pulled me down until my work was a
daily grind and was in constant
misery both day and night. MY kid
neys were badly disordered and were
continually worrying me, and I had
pains in my back and joints that were
almost unbearable. My sides hurt me
terribly also, and at times the pains
were so severe as to almost drive me
wild. Nothing seemed to do me any
good and hardly see how 1 managed
to hold out at my work
"When I got TanlaoI found the very
thing was needing, for it just built
me right up and has put me in the very

bother me and never have an ache or
pain at all. In fact I'm just enjoying
perfect health and gladly give Tanlac
all the credit"

Season Here For
Cleaning Seed

1t is high time to begin cleaning seed
grain in preparation for planting time
Good seed grain says L. B. Bassett of
the farm management section at Uni
versity Farm, possesses three qualities
weight, size and freedom from diseases
and noxious weed seeds. Use of the
tanning mill secures heavy weight seed
by means of the wind blast, large seed
by the screening process, and clean
seed by means of combinati ton of the
two.
Any tanning mill to do good work,
NAL and uniform speed. Irregular
speed causes poor work. Speed is
bound to vary to some extent according
to the kind of grain cleaned but in
most cases better work will be done by
maintaining normal speed and chang
ing the wind or shake to meet the re-
quirements for different kinds of work.
1t is important that the sieves be per-
fectly level from side to side. The
slope of the sleeves from front to rear
depends on the kind of sieves used and
the kind of work done. Wire sieves are
more likely to bag in the center. This
results in the center being overloaded.
With most mills the light weight seed
must be blown out. This is done by
dropping the grain through the wind
blast which should be so set that 1t is
of equal strength on each side of the
mill. This is regulated by the wind
blinds The grain should be dropped
through the blast in q steady uniform
stream Of equal thickness the full width
Of the. sieve. II the grain is infested
with wild oats or cookie or kinghead,
lit is sometimes good plan to use large
size screens and q stronger wind blast,
running more of the grain through the
screens and saving only small proper
tien Of the crop for seed. In this way
lit is often possible to get very clean
seed. In case of trouble it is good
plan to correspond with the manufact-
urers OF the mill. --

which met in Vienna. She described
conditions in the Balkan states as
very sad and uncertain, and said
that Austria is absolutely bankrupt. /"
There has been an apparent slump
in moral conditions in many countries
OF Europe" added Miss Adams. but
this is simply from the lack of moral
restrictions, which could not be exer-
clsed during the war while so many
men were at the fighting fronts. 1t is
simply a case of sowing the wind and
reaping the whirIwind.n

FARMERS KILL PESTS
BY USING CHEMICAL
(By Associated Press)

COLUMBUS, o., Oct. lin the old
days, farmers used to go after the
destructive peach tree borer and dig
him out. Now they poison gas 'em,
and get 90 per cent of the pests. The
chemical used is paradichlorbensene
Ohio State university entomologis.s
are demonstrating the new method,
and many farmers of the state are
taking it up. Not more than an
ounce of the chemical should be used
on a tree, and none should be used
on trees under six years of age, T. Fl.
Parks, extension entomologists at the
university says. In laying down a gas
barage, this method is used:
The ground around the tree is clear
ed six inches from the trunk on all
sides. Remove gum from the back and
then lay down the girdle, evenly dis
tributing the chemical in a ring about
two inches from the trunk and an
inch wide Cover with fine soil,
moulded and compacted to a cone, and
leave it for at least three weeks. IF
the soil has been wet, wait about four
to six weeks before uncovering. Late
eptemberean early October are the
best times for applying the treatment.
The chemical releases a gas that
seeps into the soih killing the borers.
