II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best
Dr.. KiImer'S SWamp-ROO1

Have you ever stopped to reason why
It is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says, "Take for
example DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation | have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large .
SALE
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmers SwampRoot is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls almost
every wish in overcoming kidney, liver
and bladder ailments, corrects urinary
troubles and neutralizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by parcel post. Address DR..

The World-FEght Had Several Purposes

Mai. Gen. Mason NJ. Patrick, the
chief of the army air service, said:
THE purpose of this flight is 10 DEM
onstrate the feasibility of establishing
aerial communication with all the
countries of the world, the practical
bility of travel by air through regions
where surface transportation does not
exist or at best is slow, tedious and
uncertain; to prove the ability of mod
ern types of aircraft to operate under
all climatical conditions; to stimulate
adaptation of aircraft to the needs of
commerce; TO bring before the peo-
pie of the world the excellence of
American products in the interest of
our American aircraft industry, and
lastly to bring to the United States the
honor of being the first nation TO fly
around the world"
From the viewpoint of national de-
Tense it now has been demonstrated
that a hostile nation can come across
the ocean with airplanes and Leppe-
Inns. The air service will urge that
a program of defensive aircraft be all
important part of the military and
naval expenditures of the United States
from now on. The world flight has
shown that the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans are no longer impossible bar
riers and that isolation is not SO COM
Portable as it was before the days of
dirigibles and airplanes.

From their inception, says the de-

conditions, or for some other reason
which is inherent in the surroundings
and which might easily have been
avoided had the principles of good

Hoover Would Save Uncle Sans Fish

we have been destroying and wasting
our fish resources.
Salmon has disappeared entirely
on the Atlantic coast and have been
diminished One-half on the Pacific.
The sturgeon fisheries of the Great
Lakes have declined % per cent in 40
years and are almost gone on our
coast. Shad fisheries have declined in
their yield by more than 20 per cent.
1.-THE fisheries are the most precious
of our primary food supplies" says
Secretary Hoover. They will become
more precious in the future. Our ag
gricultural expansion is rapidly APP
preaching it's limits and our pOpula
ton will double. To protect the in
dustry is an obligation to our own
generation; to maintain it is pri-
mary duty We owe to future genera
tiOns."
Congress passed a law at the last
session controlling oil pollution of
coastal waters by oil burning and oil
carrying ships. Congress also has
passed the Alaskan salmon fisheries
conservation bill under which the gov
eminent has stopped the destruction
and started the regeneration of those
fisheries, and the upper Mississippi fish
and game refuge bill by which the
streams of the upper Mississippi will
be preserved for the breeding of fish
and game.

Make Stack Silage When
.. No Silo Is Available

Andrew Boss, vice director of the
Minnesota experiment station, says
that farmers without silos can pre-
serve green and immature corn by the
stack method of making silage.
C. l.. McNelly, q Minnesota county
agent, has made stack silage for four
seasons on his farm at Mcintosh,
Mimi, and recommends it in prefer
ence to bundle fodder corn. He makes
the stack about 20 feet in diameter
and 20 feet high, keeping the center
lower than the outside until the top is
reached when it should be filled full.
The bundles must be distributed even
laid to the outside.
During the winter the top of the
stack is kept covered with foot or
two of wild hay which can be thrown
back as the silage is taken off. In
order to prevent extreme freezing this
covering should be replaced after the
days feed has been thrown down.
Corn preserved in this way will rot
in for about eight inches on the out
side of the stack, but as the butts of
the stalks only are affected the loss is
not serious. According 20 Mes srs.
Boss and McNelly the silage cures
somewhat differently from the COM
mon corn silage in that It seems TO
develop less acid. There is a sweet
molasses odor and flavor which make
It palatable for all kinds of live stock.

Dairy Products Perfect
and Economical Food

1t has always been known that milk
and other dairy products were very
healthful and economical foods, but
these.facts were not fully realized I'M
til scientists made their startling dis
coveries, within recent years, con-
corning those mysterious substances
known as vitamins, which are con-
tanned in milk, butter, etc., and which
are absolutely essential to the growth
and health of the old as well as the
young. Milk and other dairy products
are the most perfect of all foods, and
the dairy COW is the most economical
producer of such food.
Various agencies and organizations,
such as the United States Department
of Agriculture, national, state and
local health organizations, doctors,
nurses, ETC., the national dairy coun-
Gil and many commercial organiza-
tions, have given these facts enormous
publicity and advertising. and have
educated the public to a greater ap-
probation and knowledge of the value
of dairy products. "

~ ONE time during the coming
winter a series of conferences of
state authorities will be held to
consider ways and means of con-
serving and rehabilitating the fish re-
sources of the coastal waters and in
land streams of the United States
These conferences will be called by
Secretary of Commerce Herbert
Hoover, who announced his intention
at the annual convention of the United
States Fisheries association just held
in Atlantic City.
Secretary Hoover has definite plan
for interstate conservation. He points
out that the major problems, especial
ly those with reference to fish in coast
al waters, are not confined to single
state, but involve two or more states
and cannot be solved except by joint
action. Secretary Hoovers plan
would avoid the encroac hment of fed
eral authority on state responsibility,
and is based upon the constitutional
power of the state to enter into agree
ments and compacts with the consent
of congress.
The restoration of single great
fishery is, in Secretary Hoover's opin-
ion, of greater Importance to the
American people in production and
livelihood than half a dozen land rec
lamation schemes. And he presents
some startling figures to show how

Most Important to Keep
Sheep Free From Worms

1t is most important to keep sheep
free from tapeworms. These worms
come from ripe segments dropped by
infested sheep on the pastures so that
old, or permanent pastures soon
become tainted for sheep. Lambs
should, so far as possible, have new,
clean grass to go on each spring and
before turning the ewes and lambs
out to grass the ewes should be treat
ed to free them of worms, especially
stomach worms (strongylus haemon-
chus). When sheep are known to be
infested with tapeworms starve them
for "a hours, then give each sheep one
to two drains of freshly powdered
kamala washed down with water
After administering the medicine turn
the sheep into pen on the floor or
which slaked lime has been spread to
the depth of one inch or more. Keep
the sheep there for "a hours.

Most Serious Pest of Trees
and Must Be Combated
to Get Good Fruit.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Throughout much of the peach-grow
ing district east of the Rocky noun
tains from Canada to Florida, orchard
lists are troubled with the damaging
work of the peach bOrer, the most I'M
portant and serious pests of these
trees and one that must be combated
relentlessly if the peach is to be
grown. Its injuries each year, includ-
ing the cost of control measures,
amount probably to not less than So
100000 says the United States De-
partment of Agriculture.
This pest has been known for more
than $50 years, is a native American
insect, and has demanded the atten-
ton of horticultural men continuous
ly. Many methods have been tried
for it's eradication and control, but
not until 1915, when the bureau of
entomology began experiments in the
use of various toxic gasses as a pos
sible means of control, was any very
practical method found.
Use Paradichlorobenzine.
In these experiments it was found
that the chemical paradichlorobenzine,
for which the abbreviated name para
dichlor" is suggested when referred
to as an insecticide, could be used
successfully in control of the insect.
This chemical is white crystalline
substance having an etherlike odor
which, while harmless to persons and
domestic animals under ordinary con-
ditiOns, Is poisonous to insects.
Application of this chemical to
peach trees for the control of the peach
bOrer should be made in the fall after
most of the moths have finished their
egg-laying activities, to avoid late in
festation of the trees. The method
consists simply of applying the chem
ical to the soil around the base of the
tree in a circular band an inch or two
wide, care being taken that the inner
part of the band is about two inches
from the tree trunk. AS soon as the
chemical has been applied, cover it
carefully with several shOvelfuls of
dirt, making cone-shaped mound
around the tree trunk by packing the
earth with the back of the shovel.
Remove Dirt Mounds.

on four and five-year trees being three
