Weeds have been with US since the
day when Adam, doomed to earn his
bread by the sweat of his brow, began
scraping with stick at the plants he
did not want in order to give those he
did want a chance to grow. In modern
days farmers are apt to ignore weeds
or to accept them as an inevitable evil.
Weed Destruction Paramount.
The results of over 200 experiments
conducted by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture with various
crops strongly indicate that after pre-
pairing the seed bed, the main object
of cultivation is to destroy weeds. If

FREEZING FRUIT TO

preserving fresh fruit by. freezing
has passed the experimental stage in
the Middle Western and Pacific states.
The office of preservation of fruits
and vegetables, bureau of markets,
has been investigating the new meth
od for several years and the inveS-
tgators report that such fruits as
strawberries, raspberries, logan ber-
ries, blueberries, currants and cher
ries are now being frozen and held in
commercial lots.
SO far as the process is concerned,
this method of preservation has all
the merits of simplicity. The fruit is
frozen in the same crates in which it
is marketed. The temperature re-
quired is about 10 degrees F., though
soft fruit is usually subjected to a
lower temperature than that of bet
ter quality. So long as the tempera-
ture is maintained the fruit can be
kept in storage. The frozen product
must be used as soon as it is thawed.
however, as thawing breaks down the
tissues and allows the fruit to decay
rapidly.
In ice cream, or when made into
pies and preserves, the frozen fruit is
in every way comparable to the fresh
product In preparing their report the
representatives of the United States
Department Of Agriculture state that
the practice is to be recommended in
sections where there is a surplus Of
production and sufficient cold-storage
space available to accommodate the
fruit. Only fresh, sound fruit should
be frozen. Freezing does not do away
with mold, though mold will not de-
velop as long as the fruit remains at

PEPPER PLANTS NEED
EXTRA CARE TO GROW
Few Plants Required by the Av'
erage Family.
Prepare Seed Bed by Forking OF
spading to Depth of or Inches,
Working in WelI-Rotted Ma
nure and Fertilizer.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Sweet peppers, sometimes called
Chinese peppers and Mammoth pep
pers, are becoming more and more pop
ular as crop for planting in the home
garden. Only few plants are neces'
sary to supply the family of average
size with all the peppers they will
want, but it takes good land and extra
care to produce peppers of high quail
ity, say garden specialists of the UNI
ted States Department of Agriculture.
Pepper plants are easily injured by
cold and the plants should be started
in the house, in a hotbed, or in a
greenhouse. Perhaps the best way is
to purchase a dozen or so good plants
from some scotsman or plant grower.
In preparing the soil for peppers,
first spade or fork the land over to a
depth of eight or nine inches. At the
same time work in some well-rOtted ma
nure and a large handful of CONNER
cial fertilizer to each square yard of
space. This should be done at least a
week before the pepper plants are set
out. Then loosen the surface thor
oughly at the time the plants are set.
Frequent cultivation is necessary, and
an occasional application of weak IL
quid manure to the soil around the
plants will keep them growing vigor-
ously. Large, tender peppers can only
be produced on thrifty plants, and in
order to keep the plants producing all
the peppers should be kept piC6ed off
and none allowed to ripen.
Ruby King, Chinese Giant, and
Large Bell or Bull Nose are among the
leading varieties of the large sweet
peppers. Pimento peppers are mild in
flavor and are largely grown in the
Southern states for making the pimen-
to picked peppers. The pimento pep
pers can be used in the same way as
the regular sweet peppers, or they may
be left on the plants until red ripe,
then used for canning.

HARMFUL TO PASTURE WOODS

Causes of Deterioration-Youn

Pasturing of woods has been one of
the chief causes of their deteriora-

pends largely OF the number of stock
and the size of rhe woods. One char
acteristic of a heavy pastured woods

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
The public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one Of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is 50
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 1t is on sale
ut all drug stores in be ties of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for q
,ample b1ttle. When writing be sure and
