Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
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
tonishlng statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people. and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tons are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease
DR.. kilmer's Swamp Root is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large. However, if you wish
first to test this great preparation send

writing be sure and mention this paper.

GOOD ROADS ARE EXPENSIVE
Projects Costing an Aggregate Of ST.
6e3,778 Were Approved During
Month Of July.

Road projects In Is states, totaling
more than 265 miles and costing an
aggregate of $7,693,77S, or an average
of over $4,000 per mile, were APP
proved during July by the bureau Of
public roads, United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture, for federal aid,
according to the bureaus publication
Public Roads, just off the press. The
total federal aid approved for these
projects is placed at $3,023, 152. the re-
mainder of the cost being borne by the
states.
All told there were Sc such prof.
ects approved during the month. New
York led with 20, Pennsylvania came
second with seven, and Kentucky and
South Carolina tied for third with five
projects each. Four Texas projects
were approved; New Mexico, Washing
ton and Wisconsin had two each, and
Arizona. Arkansas, Kansas. Maine.
Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi,
Oklahoma. Tennessee and Virginia
each had one project approved during
the month.
Wide variation was shown in the
character of materials to be used in
building the approved roads, but con-
crete, bituminous macadam and
gravel were the chief materials.

DETERIORATION OF WOODLOTS
There Is Usually Almost No Young
Growth of Tree Species Where
Pastured Heavily.

Heavy pasturing Of farm woods has
been one of the chief causes of their
deterioration, it has been found by the
forest service, United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. The severity of
damage depends largely upon the
number Of stock and the makeup of
the woods. In heavily pastured woods
there is usually almost no young
growth Of the valuable tree species
Cattle. horses, sheep. or goats eat
young seedlings, particularly the hard
woods. trample them out, or else
break them off. Hogs eat some kinds
of seed and thus prevent reproduction
from starting or root young seedlings
out Of the ground and sometimes eat
the roots.
In those parts of the southern long
leaf pine region where hogs run wild
they are known to do a great deal Of
damage to the seedlings and often
damage trees several feet in height
When driven out of the swamps by
spring they root up the longleaf pine
seedlings and devour the heavy roots
Observations carried on in Louisiana
have shown stands Of several thousand
long-leaf pine seedlings per acre where
protected against hogs and no seed
lings on adjacent areas which were
unprotected.

PEA ROOT-ROT FOUND
I'M WESTERN STATES
Much of Seed Grown in Montana,
Idaho and Utah.
Survey Indicates That There Are IN
cipient Cases of Disease in Nearly
All of the Most important
Districts.

PREPARED by the United States Department
OF Agricultural
Does pea root-rOt, so destructive IN
the pea-canning sections Oi the Eastern
and Central states, occur in the impor-
tant seed-producing sections of the
West. or is there some basis for the
belief of the growers there that their
climate and soil safeguard them III
some way from lossf Is there any
danger of the spread Of pea diseases
with western seed.
Answers TO these questions nave
been made by specialists Of the bu-
reau of plant industry, United States
Department of Agriculture. Who nave
studied the pea disease situation dur
ing the past season, which has been
one of heavy loss in some of the older
sections of the country, where pea
rOOt-rOt has now become so common
that many fields are unproductlve ana
the continuation of the industry seems
uncertain in some localities.
Much of the seed used in the East
is grown in Montana, Idaho, and Utah,
where the industry is relatively young.
A survey of these states. however, IN
dicateS that there are incipient cases
Of pea root-rot in nearly all of the I'M
pOrtant districts and that under pres
ent conditions it will be only matter
of time before this type of trouble is
as widespread as it is in the East.
In the same way the western potato
growers, who formerly escaped root
troubles, now find their yields very
greatly curtailed by Fusarium blight,
Rhizoctonia, and other fungus para
sites which have increased with the
longer culture of the crop. The west
ern climate cannot be depended upon
to keep plants healthy. Growers
should therefore watch carefully for
the appearance of pea root-rot and
practice the longest possible rotations
to prevent its development. The sit
uation is not one to Justify undue
alarm. but these findings should be
taken seriously IL the interests Of the
pea crop in later years are to be safe
guarded.
The danger Of spreading pea dis
eases with the seed is minimized by
the department specialists. who point
out that only one disease. the leaf
and pod spot, is carried In this way,
and this is not as general or extensive
as has been believed.
