staff of kellogg library.
THE demand for trained high
school Librarians is increasing rapidly"
w H. Kerr, Normal librarian said.
Twenty Kansas high schools now
have full-time Librarians. Superinten-
dents are coming to realize that it
takes special training for the compe-
tent management of the library. The
librarian is either a librarian or a
teacher, never both.
The Kansas Normal is a pioneer
among normal schools in the field of
library training" Mr. Kerr said. THE
first course was offered here in 1906"

court late Monday returned a verdict
acquitting Charles PuIsifer. who was
tried on a charge of highway robbery

one years in the state prison, to get
StadePs diamonds. Pulsifer emphat-
ically denied that he had ever sug-
gested any robbery to Cole and as
serted he bought the diamonds from

ing up Stadel. is now serving a. term

TIME TO SPRAY APPLE TREES
Warning Is Issued by Agricultural
Agent of Shawnee County.
Spray your apple trees!

Spray your apple trees!
This is the warning of F. o. Blecha,
Shawnee county farm agent. More
over the spraying must be done We'd
nesday or Thursday if the county is
to have a bumper apple crop, Blecha
asserts. The crisis in the development
of the apples will come at that time.
After that it will be too late to spray.
Mr.. Blecha points out that the pet
ais are now falling and the cups be-
ginning to close. It is now that the
insects begin to enter the cups. II the
trees are sprayed now the insects will
be killed and as a result 95 per cent
of the apples which would otherwise
fall to the ground will be saved. Aft
err the cups have closed it will be too
late to spray.
The formula recommended by
Blecha consists of one and one-half
gallons liquid lime sulphur, one pound
of powdered arsenate of lead to fifty
gallons of water. If any one wants to
know more about the mixture they
are urged to call the agricultural
agents office at the court house.
Shawnee county has an excellent
chance for a. bumper apple crop" Mr..
Siecha asserted. at would be a
shame to spoil it now for lack of
spraying"

AID FOR FARMS
Report for Years Experiments
at Hays Is Made Public.
Forage Crops and Feeding Re-
suits Shown by College Men.

Hays, Kan, May Hundreds of
farmers and livestock raisers, at
tended the annual Round Up at the
Hays Experiment station of the Kan
sas State Agricultural college. OF spe-
cial interest to them are the results
of the experiments in Athe raising OF
hogs, cattle and sheep, conducted by
the college experts.
In presenting a report on the expert
ments, Prof. c. W. McCampbell, head
of the animal husbandry department
of the agricultural college. stated that
the experiments here deal entirely
with maintenance of livestock while
the experimental feeding at the Man
haitian station pertain principally to
fattening livestock for market.
Professor McCampbens report,
summarized, follows:
1. The Kansas experiment station is max
ing a special study of means and methods
of utilizing forage crops, particularly
straw and the sorghums, in maintaining
stock cattle and sheep. Several expert
ments of great value to livestock men were
closed today.

the summer of 1921 than steers wintered

with cottonseed cake proved to be very
satisfactory rations for wintering yearling
steers.

lost A. pounds per head in weight but
came thru the winter in a fairly strong
8. Stock cows wintered on straw and al
falfa gained 81 pounds in weight and came
thru the winter in fair condition.
6. Stock cows wintered on straw and
cane silage gained 10 pounds per head
in weight and came thru the winter in
good condition
Z. Stock cows wintered on cane silage
alone gained III pounds per head and
came thru the winter in fine condition.
s. Stock cows winfered on cane slage
and alfalfa gained 152 pounds per head
and came thru the winter in splendid con-
dition

on ten-year test in which the influence
Of dropping first calves at two years of
age has upon the future development of a
COW as well all future calves she pro-
duces. One. group will not drop their first
calves until three years of age. will be
used as a check. This is an important
problem as most ranch men breed their
heifers to drop their first calves at two
years of age and it looks very much as
tho this is the reason ranchmen find it so
difficult to maintain size in their herds.
10. Some sheepmen have thought that
cottonseed meal was injurious to breeding
sheep but eve lambs, well as pregnant
ewes were fed cottonseed meal as a pro-
tein supplement for Az months without
any injurious effects; one-third of pound
OF cottonseed meal daily.

WHEN a man is in the S3rd
wv year of his age, as | am,
there are certain things he has
learned that only time can
teach him. The basis of treat
ing sickness has not changed
since l left Medical College in
1875, nor since | placed on the
market the laxative preScrip-
ton I had used in my practice,
known to druggists and the
public since 1892, as DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
Then the treatment of con-
stipation, biliousness, head
aches, mental depression,
indigestion, sour stomach and
other indispositions that result
from constipation was entirely
by means of simple vegetable
laxatives, herbs and roots.
These are still the basis of my
DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
which is a combination of
Egyptian SIENNA and other mild
laxative herbs with pepsin.
Recently new medicines
have been brought out for
constipation that contain cal
omel, which is mercury, salts
of various kinds, minerals, and
coal tar. These are all drastic
purges, many of them danger

pie want to use them no one can
deny them the privilege, but
they should never be given to
children.
The simpler the remedy for
constipation, the safer for the
child and for you, and the bet
ter for the general health of
all. And as you can get results
in a mild and safe way by
using DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin, why take chances with
pills and powders and strong
drugs, even if disguised in
candy? My remedy, too, costs
less than most others, only
about a cent a dose. A bottle
such as you can find in any
drug store, will last a family
several months, and all can use
it. 1t is good for the babe in
arms because pleasant to the
taste, gentle in action, and free
from narcotics. In the proper
dose, given in the directions,
it is equally effective at all
ages. Elderly people viii find
it especially ideal.

Our Ancestors Treated
Constipation Naturally

Constipation is as old as the
world. Most people must fight it
from birth to death. Some use
harsh cathaltics or metallic drugs
that force relief, but do not
strengthen the organs so that they
perform their functions normally.
Our early ancestors turned to
Nature for pleasant relief. From
herbs, barks, roots and leaves
blessed with laxative properties
they prepared pleasant, effective
extract. Such remedy as our
forefathers made is DR.. True's FL

his patients originally seventy-one
years ago by Dr. ]. F. True, con-
scientious Maine country doctor.
