COULD BEIT HANDS
At Least J. A. White Would Bet
So, After Being Relieved of
Dyspepsia by Tanlac.
"Jly wife and myself have had
Stomach trouble," says Sir. J. A.
White, residing ou the Leestown Pike,
It. r. I>. No. 0, near Lexington, Ky.,
"and have both beeu nervous and run
down."
( "We could not see anything with-
out suffering afterwards and could not

ous dyspeptics. We tried many rem-
edies without "permanent benefit until
we heard of Tanlac. I got«this medi-
cine and began using It. We noticed
Immediate results. We are both great-
ly Improved by Tanlac. We give all
credit for the change of health to Tan-
lac. It is a remarkable medicine.
"I personally feel so good that I told
my hands a day or two fego that I
could beat any of them shucking coru.
I meant it nnd believe 1 could have
beat 'em all."
Of all the maladies that afflict hu-
manity chronic dyspepsia, such as Mr.
and Mrs. White suffered from, is prob-
ably the most prevalent, and hours
might be consumed in describing the
Buffering, mental and bodily, of the
rictims of chronic dyspepsia.
A morbid, unreal, whimsical and
melancholy condition of the mind,
aside from the nervous physical suffer-
ing, is the usual state of the average
dyspeptic, and life seems scarcely
worth living.
Tanlac, the celebrated medicine, was
designed especially for overcoming
this distressing condition nnd millions
of people Jiave taken It with the most
astonishing and gratifying results. It
seems to go straight to the spot, toning
up and invigorating every organ of the
body. ,

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never

Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.
Judging from reports from druggists
Who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
•oon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as-
tonishing statement that one reason why
eo many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large. However, if you wish
first to test this great preparation send
ten cents to Dr. Kilmer t Co., Bingham-
too, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When
writing be sure and mention this paper.

Standard containers for marketing
fruits and vegetables are of more in-
terest to the average citizen than he
generally realizes. Not only is he de-
frauded frequently by the substitution
of short-measure packages at the full-
measure price, which is inevitable if
I the difference In the size of the pack-
ages is not easily detected, but also
the cost of manketing is increased by
the greater expense of manufacturing
a large number of unnecessary styles
and sizes and by breakage in transit,
sometimes directly attributable to the
difficulty of loading odd-sized con-
tainers. These losses constitute an
unnecessary tax on the fruit and
vegetable industry that the bureau of
markets. United States Department
of Agriculture, is endeavoring to cut
down by fostering the use of stand-
ard containers.
Old-Time Units Cause Confusion.
Local package units that came Into
use long ago are most largely re-
sponsible for present difficulties.
Such packages may have been satis-
factory when their use was confined
to a limited territory, but of late years
rapid transportation and the use of
special refrigerator and ventilator
cars have brought the products of
every section of this country into our
great marketing ccnters, where the di-
versity of styles and sizes of contain-
ers have resulted In unnecessary con-
fusion.
There are In common use today
about 40 sizes of cabbage crates, 20
styles of celery crates. 30 lettuce
crates or boxes, r>0 styles and sizes
of hampers, 15 styles and sizes of
round stave baskets, and market bas-
kets, varying in size from 1 to 24
quarts, whereas relatively few stand-
ard sizes would satisfy all the de-
mands of the trade.
The unfair competition of short-
measure containers has been another
unsatisfactory factor. Certain shrewd
packers have found that by slight
modifications In the shape of pack-
ages the cubical contents can be re-
duced substantially without noticeably
affecting the appearance.
Short-Measure Package.
Commodities sold In these contain-
ers can be offered at a lower price per
package than those sold In standard
packages, but the price by unit of
weight is. of course, higher. Often
this has caused the general adoption
of the short-measure package, and
there is no end to this procedure, for
'►nee the short measure is recognized
as the standard a still shorter one Is
put out by an unscruplous minority.
The jsix-quart market basket.
defined by congress, and in those
states where an attempt has been mnde
to describe the manner In which the
measure should be heaped the phra-
seology generally Is vague and Indefi-
nite. The heap has been referred to
as a cone, the base being the top of
the measure, and the height depend-
ing upon the nature of the article
when piled "as high as may be with-
out special effort or design." Such
vegetables as sweet potatoes under
this definition might be piled so high
that the heap would be as large as
the measure Itself.
In view of the difficulties whldi are
necessarily encountered In attempting
to secure a uniform method of filling
or packing standard containers, It Is
generally recognized that weight is
the only really definite basis of sale,
and for that reason the pound or
hundredweight should be used where
this Is practicable. An exception may
be noted In regard to products which
are carefully graded as to size, In which
case the sales may be made satisfac-
torily by numerical count.
BUSINESS BASIS IN
SELECTION OF FARM
Many Serious Errors Made by
Young Men in Moving.
Know Only One Set of Conditions
and Are Not Able to Weigh Ac-
curately All New Factors
That Must Be Considered.
■Prepared by the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture.)
Many farmers, especially the youn-
er men. In moving from one region to
another, make serious errors In select-
ing farms, not because their Judgment
is naturally poor, but largely because
they know only one set of conditions
and are not able to weigh accurately
all the new factors that must lie
taken Into account, say specialists
of the United States Department of
Agriculture. Here the science of
farm management is helpful, in that
from the farm-management view-
point the farm is put on a business
basis.
In doing this, however, the home
side of the question must always be
kept In mind. The farm home and
the farm business are Inseparable. A
desirable farm, from a business
standpoint, is nevertheless undesir-
able If It has no social or community
the i advantages. On the other hand, deslr-
14-qtiart peach basket, the seven-
cighths-hushel bean hamper, and the
flve-p^ck lettuce hamper are easily
confused with peck, half-bushel, bush-
el and 1V4-bushel baskets.
Another factor which has caused
the addition of many unnecessary
packages is the lack of a unit which
is accepted as the basis for all pack-
age standards. If a manufacturer
wishes to Introduce a crate Into a pro-
■luring section normally using the bar-
rel Instead of using the bushel unit,
the tendency Is to offer a barrel
crate or hiilf-harrel crate. At the pres-
ent time the crates and boxes are be-
ing manufactured in sizes based on
the United States standard barrel (105
quarts) with Its subdivisions, the
United States cranberry barrel (80
45-64 quarts) with Its subdivisions, the
weight bushel, the h«*aped bushel, and
the volume bushel These different
standards are used because of compet-
ing packages.

at the following table:

A standard unit of measure should
be permanent, definite, and of fixed
and uniform value. The heaped bushel,
which la In common nse. Is far from
being fixed, and In many Instances
the heap has practically disappeared,
say socialists of the bureau of mar-
kets. A proper heap has never been
able living conditions are of little or
no advantage unless accompanied by
a successful farm business.
A farm may bave fine buildings,
good water supply, excellent roads,
and other such assets, yet If the soli
is rocky, shallow, or naturally In-
fertile. so that Its productive possi-
bilities are distinctly limited, there
will be no adequate Income for en-
Joying the other advantages. More-
over. these physical limitations are
enduring, while the needed Improve-
ments, such as buildings and roads,
can be added as means are provided.
PICK AND PREPARE BERRIES
Care Must Be Exercised by Grower
in Shipping Blackberries by
Parcel Post.
If a grower wishes to ship blnck-
berrles by parcel post, he should ex-
ercise care In picking and packing
the berries. Carelessness in picking
and handling blackberries sometimes
causes more Injury to the fruit than
does the treatment given while In
transit, say specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Success In shipping blackberries Is
dependent largely on favorable weath-
er conditions and the way in which
the fruit is handled In transit.
The shipping weight of a Id-quart
crate of blackberries Is from 27 to 30
pounds, and the charge for postage to
points within the first and second
postal zones la from 31 to .14 cents.
The cost for crate and postage on a
10-quart crate of blackberries will
vary, therefore, from 58 to 64 cents.
It msy be possible at times to ship
more than one kind of berries In a
crate, auch as a combination ablp-
ment.

TOLD BY DODSOH
You Don't Need to Sicken, Gripe
or Salivate Yourself to
Start Liver.
You're bilious, sluggish, constipated.
You feel headachy, your stomach may
be sour, your breath bad, your skin
sallow and you believe you need vile,
dangerous calomel to start liver and
bowels.
Here's my guarantee! Ask your drug-
gist for a bottle of Dodson's Liver
Tone and take a spoonful tonight. If It
doesn't start your liver and straighten
you right up better than calomel and
without griping or making you sick I
want you to go back to the store and
get your money.
Take calomel today and tomorrow
you will feel weak and sick and nau-
seated. Don't lose a day. Take a
spoonful of harmless, vegetable Dod-
son's Liver Tone tonight and wake up
feeling splendid. It Is perfectly harm-
less, so give It to your children any
time. It can't salivate.

my weakness so that I now have a healthy baby girl after having been mar-
ried nine years. I am glad to recommend your medicine, and you may use my
