Planned to Reciprocate
“Well what can I do for you Sam?”
asked Jones as the colored waiter who
usually served him at the restaurant
entered the office
“I got a chance to change mah p’si-
tlon boss Kin yo’ aay a good word
fo’ me? Say I’ae hones’ an’ slch?”
“1 know of course that you're a
good waiter Sam but how do I know

“All right Sam anything to oblige

Some Drop
“When a person once gets started on
the downward path he rarely ever
stops until he strikes the bottom"
said the speaker who was pleading for
moral uplift
"That’s right" Interrupted a mem-
ber of his audience who was swathed
In bandages and who walked with a
crutch “I know from experience”
“Ah!" exclaimed the speaker “here
Is an example of my assertion Pray
my good man would you tell me what
was the cause of your downfall?"
"Really I don’t know" was the re-
ply “It might hare been trouble with
my carburetor or my gasoline may
have run out All I know Is that my
engine stopped on me 4000 feet above
the clouds"

HARD ON CHILDREN
When Teacher Has Coffee Habit
"Best Is best and best will ever
live" When a person feels this way
about Postum they are glad to give
testimony for the benefit of others
A school teacher down In Miss says:
“I had been a coffee drinker since my
childhood and the last few years It
had injured me seriously
“One cup of coffee taken at break-
fast would cause me to become so
nervous that I could scarcely go
through with the day's duties and this
nervousness was often accompanied
by deep depression of spirits and heart
palpitation
“I am a teacher by profession and
when under the Influence of coffee had
to struggle against crossness when In
the Bchool room
"When talking this over with my
physician he suggested that I try
Postum so I purchased a package and
made it carefully according to direc-
tions found it excellent of flavour
and nourishing
“In a short time I noticed very grati-
fying effects My nervousness disap-
peared I was not irritated by my pu-
pils life seemed full of sunshine and
my heart troubled me no longer
rI attribute my change In health and
plrits to Postum alone”
Name given by Postum Co Battle

Postum comes In two forms:
Postum Cereal— the original form-
must be well boiled 15c and 25c pack-
ages Instant Postum— a soluble powder —

Hfadache Backache and Diz-
ziness Says Now That
Women Are Foolish
To Suffer and
Tells Why
New Augusts Miss — In relating her
experience Miss Irene II Craft of
this town says: “I have been troubled
for a right smart while with female
weakness I was Irregular and j
was down In bed about all the time I
I Lad chills and fever with these trou- t
bles for at least a year and a great 1
deal of dizziness headache and hack-
ache
When I was sick at each month I
had to stay In bed ail the time be-
cause my back would ache and my
head would swim so that I would al- j
most faint If I stood on my feet
I endured this for about three years i
Finally 1 began to doctor with a doc- '
tor He did not help me much Then
he recommended Cardul and I began
to take it I took about one bottle and
felt much better I have taken a whole !
lot now and feel Just all right I have j
no backache headache or dizziness
now I
I think women are foolish to suffer '
when they can take so helpful a rem- I
edy as Cardul and I surely praise It to I
every one" :
If you suffer from any of the ailments j
so common to women why not give
Cardul a trial?
Of Much Importance to Know If
Ears Matured Early and
Thereby Avoided Frosts
(By J C HACKLKMAV Missouri Col-
lege of Agriculture)
Always select seed corn In the field
before frosts and freezes injure It
Scoop-shovel selection or even more
careful crib picking next spring will
be especially fatal If frost Injures the
corn this fall
When the harvest Is on and you be-
gin to gather the crop you can not
tell which ears matured early and
would be likely to produce an early
crop that will avoid frost next year
You are too busy to study seed ears
anyhow when trying to put as many
bushels as possible into the crib each
day
Only In the field Is It possible to
know whether an ear is large because
It was produced on the only stalk in
the hill and so had more than Its
share of sunshine and plantfood Care-
ful experiment station tests have
shown that the ears which are good
In spite of having been grown on poor
soil and in a somewhat crowded stand
are more productive than those on
highly fertile fields or In thin stands
Only In the field can you tell wheth-
er the ear was too high or too low
on the stalk and whether It stood so
erect that the fall rains would enter
the husks and spoil the ear Ears
that stand almost erect will he mate-
rially Injured in case of a prolonged
rainy fall even though bo frosts or
Such earnest statements as the I freezes should come before the corn
above speak for themselves and we
receive thousands of similar ones
every year

bottle today Full directions In every

What Kept Him Busy
“I suppose you are well posted on
the subject of sun spots aren't you?"
suggested the lady
“Well really I can t say that I am

clothes”

LITTLE THINGS MAKE
Daisy Grace
Cows should not stand facing a win-
dow unless the window is covered
with muslin By the way the muslin
window In a cow stable is bettor by
far than glass It gives a subdued
light and furnishes an Ideal system of
ventilation
No man can succeed In dairying un-
less he knows that each cow Is pay-
ing him a profit A dairy cow that
does not more than pay for feed and
care Is a robber that should not be al-
low to live
There Is no method of feeding
which will increase the percentage of
fat In a given cow's milk to any con-
siderable extent but there are meth-
ods of feeding which will make s non-
paying cow profitable very often sim-
ply by increasing the quantity of milk
he gives
Take good care of the calves for
they are the nursery of the dairy
and a calf which has been raised in
the “pot-bellied” style on slops and
SELECT SEED CORN
ONLY OUT IN FIELD
Is harvested If the corn should be
frozen before harvesting and when it
is still wet from a cold rain It Is not
unreasonable to think some of It would
be killed Ears that have a longer
shank and point down are much bet-
ter Ear height Is important not only bo
cause the lower ears are more conven
lent to harvest but also because pro-
longed experiments have proved that
low ears are generally earlier In ma-
turing than the high ears Therefore
select the ears that appear on the
stalk from three to four feet high
and unconsciously but surely the car

INTERESTING FACTS
ABOUT FLAX PLANT
More of This Valuable Crop Can
and Should Be Produced—
Humus Is Necessary
Flax Is not “hard on the land” when
compared with other crops
Pax should not he grown on the
same field oftener than once In five or
6even years
Flax wilt germs are carried by the
seed and live from year to year In the
soil The formaldehyde treatment
will disinfect the seed
Flax can be successfully grown on
old lands when properly handled Do
not sew flax on fiax-slck soil
Early planting Is safest In the long
run
A firm seedbed Is a necessary
Harvest the crop when it Is ripe

Flax in rotation should follow the

FOR DAIRY SUCCESS
-
De Kol
kept In a shadeless grassless lot alt
the first summer never makes a good
cow
The dairy farmer who keeps so
many cows that he must neglect them
to take proper care of his crops haa
made a wrong division of his opera-
tions The cows should be taken care
of first and only as much land be
cropped as can be well cared for be-
tween milkings
The good dairy cow la wedge-shaped
In two directions She Is wide in the
rear and narrow In front She Is nar-
row on the top of the shoulders and
wide between the forelegs This shape
gives room for a large amount of feed
and for a big heart denoting a strong
arterial circulation
The man who has so little self-respect
that he will allow himself to
work around cows that stand In
filthy stable lacks considerably of
reaching up to the mark of a good
dairyman
EASY TO ERADICATE
SMUT FROM WHEAT
Good Plan to Get Neighbors to
Also Treat Their Seed-
Spores Fly With Wind
t " '
In many localities the loss from
stinking smut or loose smut In wheat
is as much as 25 per cent or 30 per
cent It Is easy to eradicate smut but
unless you can get adjoining neighbors
to treat their seed for smut the spores
will fly over the fence from the un
treated grain reinfecting the treater
grain
To one pint of full-strength formal
dehyde (you can get it at any drug
store) add 35 or 40 gallons of water
Spread out the seed on a floor or can
vas and sprinkle with formaldehyde
solution until thoroughly moist but
not wet enough to pack In the hand
Shovel or rake over repeatedly to dis-
tribute the moisture evenly Shovel
into a pile and cover with sacks or
canvas for at least two hours the
canvas having been soaked In the so-
lution to kill any spores which might
have remained Take off the blankets
and rake until the grain Is dry which
will only take a few minutes
Be sure that your formaldehyde is
of full strength because there is much
of It that Is very weak
RIGHT PROPORTIONS
IN POULTRY RATIONS
Hens Get Fat and Lazy When
Given Nothing but Fat-Forming
Feed— Avoid Extremes
Suppose you feed your hens on
fat-forming ration altogether and this
is the kind they eat most greedily
Feed a corn mash In the morning
cracked corn at noon whole corn at
night The hens would get fat and
lazy and lay few eggs presently they
would get Jiver-grown break down and
die Feed the same flock Instead of
the fat-making food a full protein-
wheat green bone meat scraps or
bran At first the eggs laid would
surprise you soon you would notice
the hens getting light diarrhea
would set In then Indigestion and
rheumatism the egg crop would short'
en up and it would be a more dlffl
cult task to get that flock back
health than when fed the fat forming
ration These are the extremes
feeding Both rations are needed but
must be mixed to right proportion
