gas would form and cause terrible
pain. Ny blood circulation was SO
poor that my hands felt numb most
Of the time and my nerves were in
such bad shape that I couldn't sleep
right.
Il read a great many OF the testi
monials given about Plant Juice and
finally I read one by a man I knew.
This man was older than I and I
knew he had been in bad shape and
thought II Plant Juice helped him
the way he said II did that II surely
would help me. have now taken
several bottles OF Plant Juice and am
like a new man. My bowels are
regular; liver and kidneys work fine
and I have a good appetite and en-
Joy my meals without any bad after
effects. I sleep soundly and have
new strength so that I do not tire

May
Start Here
In Weeks

In spite of the slushy condition OF
the reads. quite a large number Of
farmers were in the city this morn
ing making purchases in preparation
for spring work. The general opinion
is that field work in the vicinity Of
East Grand Forks will begin between
April 10 and Is, depending on the
weather, With the present weather
conditions prevailing for a few days
the snow now on. the ground should
disappear in less than a week and as
there is practically no standing water
On the fields, and all the bitches open,
a few days more Of good drying
weather should put the fields in. condi-
ton for work.
Most of the blowing to be done was
completed last fall and hence the
bulk Of the work Of preparing the soil
for seed will be discing and harrow
ings,s it was said. Some farmers have
their fields in such a condition that
they expect to put the drill to work as
0 0 as the ground is sufficiently dry.
Much Of the unplowed ground will be
put into potatoes, it was said.
1t is generally conceded that there
will be a smaller acreage of wheat
this veal than formerly and a decided
increase in notatOes and corn.
