there are certain things he has
learned that only time can
teach him. The basis OF treat
ing sickness has not changed

public since 1892, as DR..

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 simplavegetable
laxatives, herbs and roots.
These are still the basis of my

which is a combination of
Egyptian SIENNA and other mild
laxative herbs with pepsin.

Landor the Explorer.

Henry Savage Lander has a
splendid record as an explorer. He
was the first known white man to
reach both sources of the Brahmaputra
river of India and established theif
exact positions in Thibet. His explora-
tion tours in the Himalayas also
yielded vast store of information. He
later spent whole year cruising
among and studying the Philippine
islands.
With single partner, Mr.. Landor
travelled $500 miles on a pack sad

his attention to Africa spending sew
eral years there and then again chang

lea where he travelled almost continu-
nusly until 1914.

sELF-FEEDER FOR CHICKENS
Homemade Continuance Reported to
Department of Agriculture From
Indiana Agent.

A good homemade self-feeder for
poultry reported to the United States
Department of Agriculture by the
county extension agent of Knox coun-
ty. Indiana, Is one made Of an old
mower wheel, barrel with both ends
knocked out, an old washtub, and a
small platform of rough boards. The
wheel is first laid On the platform. The
barrel is then placed on the wheel,
filled with dry mash, and the tub
turned over the top Of it for a cover. A
barrel should be used which leaves
just enough space between it's edge
and the rim of the mower wheel to al
low room to feed. This prevents the
feed from being scratched outside the
rim.

Samples of honey are being received
by the United States Department OF
Agriculture from beekeepers in all
parts of the country in connection
with the work of establishing reliable
color grades for extracted honey. A
new type of spectrophotometer will be
used in this work, which will be done
BY agriculturists Of the department in
cooperation with the division of

In the case of the power-driven ma

power to operate It. The horses or

it is much easier to overlook slight
indisposition on the part Of a power

transmitted Is loose, 1t may cause a

Contrary to the usual belief of bee
keepers, the loss of heat through the
bottom Of beehives otherwise fnsulat-
ed is very rapid, so that the Insulation
on the top and sides Is never used
to its full capacity, as so much OF
the heat escapes below. On the sup
position that cheat RISES" it has been
the practice for beekeepers not to
lnsulate the bottoms of hives in which
bees are wintered. This is a serious
neglect which should b. remedied in
all commercial insulated hives, ac-
cording to United States Department
Of Agriculture circular 222, The In
sulating Value Of Commercial Double
Walled Beehives, by r. F. Phillips,

Insulating Value.
Tests have been made Of the In
sulating value Of eight different
types Of hives. It Is clear from the
results Of these tests that leaving
any part Of the hive without ihsula-
tion renders the escape Of heat at
that point easy. Some beekeepers, in
addition to leaving the bottoms of
their hives unprotected, also leave the
fronts, facing the south, unpacked, on
the erroneous theory that the warm
ing Of the hive by the sun will over
come the loss Of heat at this point.
Space for Insulating.

insulating materials depends on the

and the insulating value is increased

TRACTOR RESPONSIVE

The tractor is as responsive to good
treatment as an animal or any other
machine. In the case Of a great many
machines the response to good treat"
ment is not SO noticeable. This is
true because the tractor is power

farm machine consumes power, says

in the production of power. This is

In Seasons of Drought Farmer Has
Supply of Feed for Stock Stored
in Years Of Plenty.

In seasons of drought, when the
pastures are 'burnt up" and the
crops partially or totally ruined, the
farmer having live stock must dispose
Of large part of his herd-usually
at sacrifice, or buy high-priced feed.
Here the farmer with the silo is ahead
of the man who has none. He can
keep his stock in good shape by CIV

Tuesday night after school the
Finley high school base ball team
came over from Finley and showed us
how to play the great American Game
They won the game and practically
eliminated us from the Play Day Base
Ball game. But they had to use three
pitchers to do it and we got nine hts
to their seven. Plaine started the
game for the locals and he walked the
first man, which was i bad beginning
then hit and couple OF errors gave
Finley three scores in the first inning.
We came back just as strong in our
half and made five hits which counted
four runs. Plaine again walked two
men in the second but ona of them
was caught asleep off second, Plaine
struck out the next man and the third
was out on fly to Brewster at short
stop. We had another bad inning in
the third and also the fourth. At
the end of the fourth inning the score

Brewster went in to pitch for the local
and pitched wonderful bail up to the
eighth inning when he walked three
men let in one score. However he
settled down with three men on bases
and famed three men, The locals
gathered two runs in the fifth and the
score at the end of the game was 9
to 6 in favor of Finley. Sharon is to
be here Saturday if the diamond is dry
