largely carries out President Hoover's plans for
solving the agricultural problem and represents
the best thought in eight years of constant agi-
tation.
Briefly the law provides the machinery for
the complete reorganization of marketing system
for agricultural products and for generous fnan-
cial aid for the government to establish and
maintain such system. The new system will be
based primarily on the cooperative plan, sup
ported by sterilization corporations to prevent
seasonal gluts and the inevitable accompanying
price depressions. With ample financial backing
reasonable control of SURPRISES is anticipated.
This will naturally lead to a well directed move
ment to find constantly available markets, there
by extending the outlet for the surplus crops.
Reductions in the costs of marketing will
also be an undertaking of the board, so as to
reduce the spread between what the farmer re-
ceives and the consumer pays. Reductions in
transportation costs will also enter into this line
of endeavor and efforts will no doubt be direct
ed to establish more businesslike methods and
the elimination of waste wherever possible.
1t is too early to forecast the activities of
the new farm board, because, as stated above,
it is entering upon an entirely new field of en-
deavor. Much Of the boards work necessarily
will be experimental, but the important fact re-
mains that the board is charged with the exclus-
and that henceforth there is to be a concerted
effort towards this accomplishments Coun-

Cut Out Overwhelming
Cankers to Cure Blight

Get after the fire-biight during the
dormant season by cutting out the
over-wintering cankers. for they are
the sources of next years infection.
The cankers are often found al the
base of blighted twigs and are dark
sunken areas in the bark. The cank-
ers should be cut out beyond the dis
colored part of the inner bark. The
wound should be disinfected with cor
rosive sublimate and painted over
with white lead paint, or coal tar.
Blighted twigs and branches should be
cut off during the growing season
about six inches below the blighted
part and the stub disinfected- The
disinfecting can be quickly done with
a swab on the end of a stick which
is carried in bottle of disinfectant.
A fast growing tree is more suscep-
tible to fre-blight than a slow-grow-
ing one, and a tree in full bearing is
usually less susceptible than young
tree.

Prune Grapes in Winter
to Get Best Results

Winter is the season for pruning
grapes-anytime when the wood isn't
frozen. for then the vines are brittle
and will snap off if handled
Pruning grapes is in reality thin
ming the crop. The idea is to remove
enough wood so that the strength of
the vine will be thrown into fewer
punches, and make them larger and
finer. In general this result will be
best gained by pruning the vine 70
about 80 or 40 buds distributed over
four or five canes.
The size of the canes is important.
According TO Michigan studies the
best yields are from canes about one
fourth of an inch thick, measured be-
tween the fifth and sixth buds. Big
canes have spent their strength in
producing wood and are poor produc-
ers of buds.
There are several different systems
of pruning and training grapes. and
your agricultural college will be glad
to give you the best advice for your
section.

Velvet Beans Are
Soil Improvers
Best Way to Plant This Crop
for Good Results Is
With Corn.

Velvet beans, while not recon-
mended for hay. are as valuable for
soil Improvement as soy beans or cow
peas and at the same time cost only
half as much.
''The best way TO plant this crop for
good results is with corn" says E c.
Blair. extension agronomist at the
North Carolina State college. They
will do as well or better with corn
than if planted alone and the grower
viii receive a profit from the corn in
addition TO improving his SOIL"
Plant in Alternate Rows.
The corn and beans should be
planted in alternate rows, three feet
apart. dropping the beans six inches
apart on poor soil and about one foot
apart on rich soils. Cultivate the corn
until the bean vines have covered the
middle. In this way ton or more of
vegetation, worth S14 in plant food
alone, will be added 10 each acre
planted TO these crops.
On light sandy land or on very poor
soils velvet beans make a much better
growth than do soy beans, while on
good land they make equally as good
a growth and are much more valuable
rs fall grazing crop. Cattle may be
turned into the fields ar frost and
grazed until the vines and seed are
gLne.
Plant for Grazing.
Where the beans are planted for
grazing purposes, ii is a good plan TO
plant two rows of corn to one of vel
vet beans. This gives a clear space
between rows for harvesting the corn
and will also furnish sufficient grazing
for the average farm animals
Mr.. Blair states that velvet beans
and the Biloxi variety of soy beans
grow together with excellent results
The heavy stalks Of the soy beans
help to hold up the beans, which makes
for a larger growth and a correspond
ing increase in value TO the land as
well as grazing.

Help Kidneys
By Drinking
More Water
\ Take Salts to Flush Kidneys and
! Help Neutralize lrri-
Eating Acids

Kidney and bladder irritations often
result from acidity, says a noted au-
thority. The kidneys help filter this
acid from the blood and pass it on TO
the bladder, where it may remain to
irritate and infame, causing a burn
ing, scalding sensation, or setting up
an irritation at the neck of the blad-
der, obliging you to seek relief two
or three times during the night. The
sufferer is in constant dread; the wa
ter passes sometimes with a scalding
sensation and is very profuse; again,
there is difficulty in voiding il.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
# because they can't control urina-
ton. While il is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
often one Of the most simple ailments
TO overcome. Begin drinking lots Of
soft water, also get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from your phar-
macist and take a tablespoonful in
glass of water before breakfast. Con-
tinue this for two or three days. This
will help neutralize the acids in the
system so they no longer are a source
OF irritation TO the bladder and uri-
nary organs, which then act normal
again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
Is used by thousands of folks who are
subject TO urinary disorders caused
BY acid irritation. Jad Salts causes
no bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, efferves-
cent Whitewater drink which may
quickly relieve your bladder irritation.

Plentiful Supply of
Grapes for Family Use

There is no reason why any farm
family should be without grapes. And
it is not necessary that the fruit be
bought either, as most every farm will
grow grapes Of some kind.
With proper selection Of varieties
suited to particular soils this can be
accomplished. Grapes grow over a
wide area and on variety of soils.
There are many spots about the
farm that can be planted to grape
vines: along partition fence, on per-
COLA leading from house to any other
building. over the back porch, in the
fence corner, or out in the open
ground, from a few vines to hall
