THE SAYREHIADLIGHT
SHOOK WITH
NERVOUSNESS
A Lady Was Flat On Her Back
With Terrible Spells, But Her
Husband Got Cardui,—
And Now She Is
Grateful.
MeKtnney, Texas.—Mrs. Mary Staph*
prison, of this place, states: "About
a year and a half ago I was down In
bed for six weeks, not able to sit up.
1 was flat on my back and had ter-
rible spells , . , Why, It looked
like I would die, At times I didn’t
know anything. I would get nervous,
I couldn’t bear anyone to talk to me,
—I would just jerk and shook with
nervousness . . , across ray back

said to my husband I knew Cardui
was good and I believed I had best
try It.
He got me a bottle of Cardui. and
when I had only taken one-half bot-
tle of Cardui I felt stronger. I took
a half a dozen bottles altogether, then
in two weeks after I began taking I
was up, in three I was doing my work.
I praise Cardui for I believe it saved
my life and I am grateful.”
For over 40 years Cardui has been
helping weak, sick women back to

’Exhaustive studies of Insect investi-
gation and control were continued in
Sira. j the Sequoia and Yosemlte national
parks. Much new information has been
gained, and the methods of gathering
I and compiling field data have been
standardized.
“A special study was completed on
j the Interrelation of forest tires and
j Insects on an area of about 2,ikk) acres
l in southern Oregon. This area has been
I under observation since 1014. and the
I fire had bunted over about S00 acres
! in 1918. The records show that prevl-
j ous to the fire the Insects had killed
485.000 board feet of timber. The fire
] killed 170,000 feet, and subsequently
i the slightly fire-injured as well as the
I uninjured trees In the burned area
; were killed by beetles, which were at-
■ trac.ed from the surrounding areas.
, It was noticed that the Infestation in
the burned area increased more than
1.000 per cent, but It was found that
the infestation in the surrounding
areas decreased. It was also found that
j the broods of the beetles In the fire-
scorched trees failed to develop to
; much beyond the original number that
I attacked the trees. So the fire did not
contribute to an increase of the beetles

about 10 beetles to the square foot to

to the attacks of the bark beetle, the

Proper Drainage li Chief Essential In
Maintenance—Road Drag Is
Especially Useful.
The cardinal essentlnl In spring
maintenance of earth roads, especially
i those ou heavy suits. Is good drainage.
| So long ns the water can be kept
from penetrating deeply luto these
j roads they will remain at lenst fairly
passable. To accomplish tills on aver-
age eurth roads, however, Is far from
easy. During the early part of this
season of the year rains are often of
long duration nml tend to saturate the
soil. Water from melting snows Is
perhaps even more penetrallng than
long-continued rnlns, while alternate
freezing and thawing of the wet sur-
face tends to Increase the porosity of
the soil and permit even more ready
access of water Into the foundation.
The chief attention of the road man
must therefore he directed toward
getting and keeping the water away
from the road. So long as the founda-
tion can he kept dry, even a heavy
freeze followed by a rapid thaw will
do little or no real damage to the road
j surface. A dry soil does not heave.
! The foundation will therefore still be
solid, and the rond will be able to
! sustain the traffic without serious rut-
ting. On the other hand a snturnted
soil expands greatly on freezing, and
i "hen It thaws out has not only lost
j practically all power of sustaining tlie
J weight of traffic, but also Is In an Ideal
| condition for taking up or ahsorhlng
| still more water, and thus forming |
j still more mud.
During the early pnrt of the senson,
as long ns the weather Is very rainy
or there Is melting snow on the ground
It will pay to have the rond man go
, over the road dally to see that the
' drains and side ditches do not become
I clogged nnd to note the need of any
i necessary repairs. A few minutes'
work with a shovel may prevent a se-
rious washout or damages, which. If
not promptly checked, might make the
road practically Impassable.
The rond drag or some other similar
device finds Its greatest usefulness
dnrlng this season. It may be used
lo good advantage to clear the road-
way of slush nnd melting snow nnd so
prevent this water from soaking Into
