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. It 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
30 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-
lions 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
ten cents to DR.. Kilmer & Co., Bingham

writing be sure and mention this paper.

CUT ALFALFA AT
CORRECT PERIOD
Best Plan to Delay Harvesting
Until the Plants Are Nearly
in Full Bloom.
LIFE OF STAND HEIGHTENED
Recommended That Crop BE Given
Time to Reach Height Of 6 to 8 !
Inches Before Cold Weather
Shuts Off the Sap Flow.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Delaying the cutting of alfalfa until
it is nearly in full bloom has been
found better practice than moving
1t soon after blooming starts. Trials
made by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture and state expert
ment stations indicate that the yields
are larger over period Of years, and
that the life of the stand is prolonged
by delaying harvesting until the plants
are nearly in full bloom.
Hay made when the plants are
nearly in full bloom possibly is not
quite so palatable, but this is offset by
the gain in quantity of hay. The fields
that were cut prior to or at the be-
ginning abf blooming showed ten
dency to die out sooner. Cutting a
crop late in the fall so that not enough
growth was left for protection in the
winter also had much to do with thin
ming stands. The department recon-
mends that alfalfa be given time to
reach height of six to eight inches
before cold weather shuts off the sap
flow.
Broadcasting Best Plan.
In the past the growing of alfalfa
in rows in dry regions has been recon-
needed, by experimental evidence
gathered by the department in the
last few years shows that, with the
exception of few rare varieties the
seed of which sells for high price,
this method is seldom practical. Where
the rainfall is not sufficient to grow
alfalfa in broadcast stands it cannot
usually be grown profitably in rows.
A slightly larger yield may be pro-
duced, but not enough to pay, for the
added expense. Also, the hay harvested
on this cultivated ground is apt to be
dirty and it is hard to cut and load.
Value of Cultivation.
Accommodating experience also has
exploded some old notions about the
value of cultivation of broadcast
stands. 1t has been found that har-
rowing a field of alfalfa ordinarily
does not increase the yield; neither
does it prolong the life Of the stand to
any noticeable extent. The modified

GETTING STAND OF ALFALFA
Iowa Farmers Secure Best Fields by
Seeding During August and
Without Nurse Crop.

Experience of many Iowa farmers
and of the Iowa agricultural expert
ment station is that the surest method
of getting stand of alfalfa is to seed
during August without a nurse crop
on land which has been plowed in
early summer and cultivated at ten
day intervals to kill weeds and con-
serve moisture. Objections to this
method are that the land does not
yield returns during the season pre-
ceding seeding, that it requires adj
ditional labor, and that grasshoppers
frequently damage the alfalfa con-
siderably on small acreages. However,
general experience in Iowa justifies
the method above suggested as it pro-
duces the best fields Of alfalfa.

Slash pine grows rapidly and yields

of stock. If fire is excluded, the range
yields more Of the tender annual
grasses and legumes which are more
nutritious than the hardy perennials
like wire and broom-sedge grasses, and
the influence of the protective soil
cover stimulates tree growth to a
marked degree.
If the timber in the forest pasture
becomes too dense, the owner has an
easy remedy by first working the
larger trees for turpentine and then
cutting them for lumber, ties, posts,
pulpwood, or firewood. Open stands
of slash pine, with IS to $50 trees an
acre measuring up to ten inches on
the stump, induce rapid growth Of
the individual tree and admit a good
growth Of grass. In such stands more
turpentine to the tree is secured than
in overcrowded ones, and the grazing
of live stock can be carried on sue
cessfully.
Second-growth slash pine stands,
twenty to forty years old, frequently
contain from 80 to 100 trees to the
acre. At 20 cents cup, less than
the price received in 1919 for turpen-
tine rights on the Florida national
forest, such stands would be worth
for turpentine 500 to $25, and with
pine stumpage at SIS a thousand the
timber would be worth $25 to $780, or
an average money return of from $3.50
to So an acre yearly. Observations
and experience in such older sections
Of the country as New England indi-
cate that good financial returns may
be derived in relatively short periods
from second-growth forests If han
died under proper system of protec-
ton, turpentining, and cutting, the
bulletin points out.
Because slash pine grows rapidly
and the lumber market is fast taking
material Of smaller size and poorer
grades, the day is approaching when
good stumpage prices can be obtained
for young and second-growth timber.

spring-tooth harrow does not injure
the plants, but the disk often kills
many and reduces the stand. Some
sort of cultivation appears advisable
in irrigated regions where the water
carries great deal of silt or where
the soil has been compacted by the
tramping of cattle pastured on the
alfalfa. The department believes there
is usually little to be gained by, culti-
waiting broadcast fields when the stand
is good. If weeds and grass work in
and reduce the stand it is better to
pillow up the field and put in another
crop for year or two. 1t is hard to
thicken thin stand by cultivating it
and sowing more seed; in fact, it is
waste of time, the department be-
lieves.
