Pasture Improvement
Important for Farmers

Pasture improvement Is q profit
able undertaking on southeastern
Ohio farms Ii live stock are kept
to utilize the extra forage, d. r.
Dodd finds after several years Of
demonstrations in fertilizing, lin
ing and seeding these hillsides.
From these tests he makes these de-
auctions:
Reseeding of runout pasture at
the time of applying lime and fer
tilizer la not necessary unless de-
sirable pasture plants cover less than
5 per cent Of the ground area or
unless quick results are desired.
Fertilizers not only greatly In
e the yield but also gradually
change the kind Of vegetation C
plying the land.
When capital Is limited, the
largest return per dollar invested
may be obtained from lime and su-
perphospate. The largest net re-
turn. however, comes from a COM
plete fertilizer.
Potash In addition to phosphate
alone Is not worthwhile as q gen
eral rule. Where nitrogen and
phosphate r. used, the return from
additions of potash are much
greater.
Nitrogen is by far the most effec-
tive of the three common elements
In increasing yield. Returns from
1t, however, are rather limited un.
less phosphorus and potassium are
also present In abundance.-Ohio

DEMOCRATIC
GROUP GROWS

Following is the declaration of
principals of the League of Loyal
Democrats, which is opposing the
candidacy OF Upton Sinclair for
governor.
William Jennings Bryan, Jr son
of the Great Commoner," and a
lifelong Democrat, is chairman of
the league and is actively campaign
ing to defeat Sinclair. The league
claims numerous members in In
perial county with daily in
crease which indicates Sinclair will
have difficulty in carrying this
county.
l. Traditionally, the Democratic
party is both liberal and progress
sive 1t is based upon fundamental
principles. With loyal Democrats
those principles are matters OF con-
viction, in which opportunism can
have little part.
2. The spectacle of a lifelong
Socialist. who never voted a DEM
ocratic ticket in his life, changing
his registration in order to cap
ture the Democratic primaries and
use an old party to do new job,
is an affront to Democracy.
3. We believe in President Roose-
welt. We give to his administration
our unyielding support.
4. We are united in this campaign,
plegded to lend our every energy:
| To prevent the election of Upton
Sinclair as governor of California
and to save the state from Social
ism;
To save the Democratic party
from radical and irresponsible
leadership;
To build the nucleus of a sane,
progressive, regenerated and mill
tant Democratic party In California

Never in the history of the pres

county probation officer.
The work of the office has been
increasing rapidly and the juvenile
detention home numbers some Is

large number.
Whether or not this is tempor-

hard to tell, the probation officer
declares. Saturday he was called TO
Brawley where 10 boys were in the
custody of the police of that city
who had sent Tor him. A similar call
came in from Holtville shortly af

In addition to the juvenile cases
there are many involving adults
With the present reduced force, the
probation office is having a hard

beard Of equalization will ask the

I'VE are willing to continue liquor
administration if given the proper
law" said Fred E. Stewart, "but sale
of liquor cannot be controlled un-
der terms of the persent act. It is
a thankless task to attempt to en-
force an utterly unworkabe law.
Proposition No. 2 would permit
sale of hard liquor by the drink and
give the board broad discretionary
powers in the matter of licenses for
dealers.
In the event the proposition, spon'
sored by business m n throughout

passage, observers here considered it
likely the legislature would set up a

ted to the A. and P. directorate and

pected within a few days.
In New York, financial circles
pointed out that the great Atlantic

brother, George, and that his deci-
sion was not subject to approval of
his board. The fact that Hartford
took part in the conference that

that it assures the a. and P.'s re

RIVER READINGS
To Relieve Catarrh,
Catarrhal Deafness
And Head Noises

Persons suffering from catarrhal
deafness, or who are growing hard
of hearing and have head noises
will be glad to know that this dis
tressing affliction can usually be
successfully treated at home by an
internal medicine that in many
instances has effected complete re-
lief after other treatments have
failed. Sufferers who could scarce
ly hear have had their hearing re-
stored TO such an extent that the
tick of watch was plainly audible
seven or eight inches away from
either ear. Therefore, If you know
of someone who is troubled with
head noises Or catarrhal deafness,
cut out this formula and hand 1t
to them and you may have been
the means of saving some poor SUI
ferer perhaps from total deafness.
The prescription can be prepared
at home and is made as follows:
Secure from Clements Drug
Store or your druggist ] OF. Par
mint Double Strength) Take this
home and add to it = pint OF hot
water and little granulated sugar;
stir until dissolved. Take one table
spoonful four times a day.
Parmint is used in this way not
only TO reduce by tonic action the
inflammation and swelling in the
Eustachian Tubes, and thus 10
eoualize the air pressure on the
drum. but to correct any excess OF
secretions in the middle ear, and
the results it gives are nearly al
ways quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh
in any form, or distressing, rumb-
ling, kissing sounds in their ears
should give this recipe trial.
