THERE'S DEATH IN THE POT"
A Celebrated London Doctor Used the Above to Emphasize the Danger of Overeating. Worse Than Overeatng is Failure
 tn Eliminate Waste.

Nature could not devise a way to feed and repalr the body without the n c, ,,ticn of considerable waste matter. But Nature provided for tha regular, thorough elimination o1 such waste. To disregard her ln- luntion is to break a natural law.
 Whether you help Nature by wlse or foolish means is left to your own judgment. To simply force bowel movement is unWise, unnatural and incl. :tlve. You can choose harsh, draarlc, violently acting drugs or ta.e such without caring what their ..c.ion or effect is, or you can select June old tlnle-proven, trlal-tested remedy, that has been used for TO years or more by thousands of people all over the world, with the result that it has won an envlable reputa- tion a5 a reliable household remedy. Take Beecham's for example. All the world knows Beecham's; good lv part of the world uses Beecham's S has cen using it for years, handing it's use down from father to son from mother to daughter, for gen eration ter generation, recommend, ing it to others. In spite ot suci extensive and general use, who eve: heard complaint or criticism O Beecham's? That in itself IS powerful recommendation.
 Don't take anything for grantee; Reason it out. All druggists se Beecham's-are glad to sell them.

Creosoting Fence Posts
 C~HI Y

Is Generally Economical Although more expensive at the outset, creosoted posts are generally more economical to use than many kinds of untreated short-lived woods, because of their much greater last ing qualities, the Forest Service of the United States Department of Agriculture has determined. The. exceptions would be in remote local ities, with cheap wood and labor, and where it would be expensive to obtain creosote.
 The large saving in the replace ment charges, which ordinarily mount up so high in maintaining a fence, and the ues of cheap and in- ferior kinds of woods in the first place, much more than offset the ln- creased cost of thorough treatment with creosote. Treated posts are a good investment, and their use where lasting woods are scarce Or expensive is a sign of sound judgment in farm management.
 The best treatment is that which results in the deepest penetration into the wood with the least ab3Orp tion of creosote. The butts of th' posts should be placed for 1 to hours in creosote heated to a tern perature of 18O to 22O degrees r. is important to treat the wood to height of a foot above the propose ground line In the Southern State the entire post should then be suh merged into oil, at 80 to 100 degree F., for 1 or 2 hours, Or for such

Special Seed Storage House
 Seldom Necessary on Farm

Unless a farmer wishes to engage extensively in the business of seed production, it probably would not pay him to erect a special seed house, studies by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture have shown. Usually there are one or more build ings on the farm which are suitable for storing seed. A dry, well-vcnti- lated place such as a granary should be chosen, and the seed, if in bulk, should not be piled too deep. In most instances it probably is advisable to store seed in bags piled neatly with the 1owermost layer raised off the floor by strips of wood. Precaution- ary measures should be taken against rodents, and if many weevil or other insects are working in the seed, it may be advisable to fun1igate with carbon disulphid.

Find the Best Height for
 Tubs, Table, Sink, and Stove

Is your permanent kitchen equip ment substantial, easy to keep in order, carefully grouped and set at such height that you do not have to stoop or strain your muscles as you work? Sink, stove, and workable should be near together so as to save steps. Scattered equipment means walking many unnecessary miles dur ing the course of a year, the United States Department of Agriculture has estimated. If the kitchen table is on casters it can be easily moved where needed, thus saving steps.
 The various kitchen tasks can be done most comfortably at different heights. Sinks especially are often set too low: 30 inches from the bot tom of the sink to the floor is con sidered good average height. Experi, ment until you find the best nelgn1 for your table, ironing board, s.ac washtubs. The table can be raised on blocks hollowed out to fit the legs and with a little ingenuity you car adjust the ironing board and tubs.

OUR FARMERS CORNER

Agriculture recommends cocoa as suitable addition to the hot school lunch. When it is not possible fer the children to obtain it at school the mother may serve it when the children get home in the afternoon, or as part of the evening meal. Few adults will refuse an appetizing cup of cocoa for lunch or supper, when dropping in to call, or when return ing late at night from a cold trip.
 Make cocoa with whole or kim milk if possible. Allow 2 level tea spoonfuls of cocoa and about 2 level teaspoonfuls of sugar to each half pint of milk. While bringing the milk to the scalding point mix the cocoa and sugar to a paste with a little cold milk or water. Add to the hot milk, bring to the boiling point, and boil for about minute. To prevent scum from rising, beat briskly with an egg beater. Some persons like the addition of few drops of vanilla. Whipped cream or a marshmallow may be floated on top of each cup.

time as is necessary to get good penetration. Tn the North, where decay is less rapid, the hot treatment is applied only to the butts, which are allowed to remain for 2 or hours n the cooling process, the tops being treated by painting or dipping in creosote.

Well-Balanced Rations
 Give Greater Egg Yield

Give Greater Egg Yield
 Every person who keeps poultry IS sure to be impressed sooner or later by the importance of feeding we'll balanced rations, especially for the production of eggs. Ordinarily a balanced ration means 8 ration that has the proportions of carbohydrates, protein, and fat that have been found by experience to produce the best results, but new things are being dis covered that need to be given co1sid- eration in balancing ration. For instance, it is now thought that It may be we'll to have balance be- tween the acid and alkaline feeds and that there is a possibility that the continued use of an acld-formlng diet may lead to a greated susceptl- bility to certain diseases.
 The grain mixtures that are com monly used by poultrymen are acid Mash mixtures containing sufficient quantities of digester tankage, meat and bone meal, dried milk, or dried blood will be alkaline. The acid ir feed mixtures can be overcome by these feeds just mentioned and by ground limestones and oyster shell This further emphasizes the neee3, sity of feeding a mash containing meat scrap or some feed of this kind Green feed and fresh milk also helr to overcome acidity.

Overhaul Thrashing Machine
 At Close of the Seas

At Close of the Season
 Overhau1ing the thrashing ma chine at the close of the season or during the winter means dollars ln time and grain saved next year Prop CT repairs should be made and the whole machine put into thorough working order before the beginning of the working season. While cer- tain adjustments must be made dur ing operation, it is possible by put ting up the machine properly at the close of the season to have all parts in such condition that the necessary operating adjustments can be made readily, accurately, and with little delay.
 Many times defective parts are overlooked or neglected in the hope that they will last through the sea- son, when they should be replaced during the season of disuse. When they fail in the midst of the working season, serious losses often result before the repairs can be made During or just before the thrashina season, new parts are difficult TO get promptly because of the unusual rusl of orders from the many who have put the matter off until the last min ute.

Kafir and Rolled Oats
 Are Relished by Hens

The seed of kafr, one of the grain sorghums, has been used as a substitute for corn in the scratch mixture used by the Poultry Hus- bandry Division of the United States Department of Agriculture with good results, which indicate about similar feeding value for these two products. Rolled oats were found preferable to ground oats for use in poultry mash, and resulted in sufficient great CT egg production to justify the addi- tional expense associated with 1sing this costlier feed. The hens ate the mash more freely, and, although they consumed more feed, their egg yield was enough larger to produce greater profit.

Protecting White Pines
 Against Blister Rust

White-pine trees and currant or gooseberry bushes should not be
 permitted to grow near together, the United States Department of Agri- culture warns. This is because the two form a rotation for the white pine blister rust, a fungous disease imported from Europe about 20 years ago, which is doing serious damage to five-leaf pine timber in the East. No case has ever been

the disease will not be perpetuated unless other spores so bred find their way back to the pine tree. For this reason, as an important control measure, the department urges that white-pine trees and currant or gooseberry bushes be kept from 600 to 900 feet apart.
