Selecting Varieties for
Large Strawberry Crop

In selecting strawberry varieties for
planting, avoid types which are known
to be especially liable to spot and
rot diseases, keeping in mind all the
time. of course. that yield and quality
characters must also be preserved.
Set plants in well-drained soil !; for the
moisture from low or poorly-drafned
soil favors fungi causing diseases.
Further sanitary measures involve a
systematic cleaning up around the
packing shed; rotten and mOldy ber-
ries should be destroyed forthwith.
Likewise all rotten berries left in the
field only add to the source of trouble
for the next season. Daily close pick
ing not only keeps the berries of even
grade but also may tend to regulate
the water content of the berries and
may tend to keep them from extreme
succuIency. If, in @ttlng, so-called
certified plants are purchased. 1t Is
of course advisable to make certain
that the plants received are worthy Of
the certificate they bear.

II You Need a Medicine

Or. KiImer'S Swamp-R00t

Have you ever stopped to reason why
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
curatiye 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, "TalIe for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation I 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 a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
20 many people claim, that it fultlls almost
every wish in overcoming kidney, liver
and bladder ailments, corrects urinary
troubles and neutralizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism.

Swamp-Root by parcel post. Address Dr:
