the body of the toxins, or poisons, which
are bred In the Intestines. When you
feel tired, sleepy, headachy, when your

on the face and neck, It is time to recog-

health by taking something for the liver

The machinery of the body needs to
be oiled, kept In good condition, Just as
the guns or machinery of a ship. \Shy
ahould a human person neglect his own
machinery more than that of his auto-
mobile or his guns? Yet most people
do neglect themselves. Their tongue
has a dark brown color, skin sallow,
breath bad, yet they fall to see that
their machinery needs attention.
Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets have
been known for nearly half a century.
They are made of May-apple, lenves of
aloe and Jalap, made Into a tiny pellet
and coated with sugur. They are stand-

SANDY LOAM IS PREFERRED
As Attention Is Usually Given In
Spare Moments, Locate as Near
House at Possible—Drainage
of Prime Importance.
(Prepared by the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture.)
It Is Impossible to make an accurate
estimate of the vulue of the vegetables
which muy be grown in home gardens
In the South, but it Is safe to say thut
a well-kept garden will yield u return
eight or ten times us great us the re-
turn from an equul urea devoted to
cotton or to other general farm crops.
Of even greater Importance than the
money vulue of the products of the
garden Is the satisfaction of having a
bountiful supply of vegetables close
at hand where they can be secured ut
a moment's notice.
Location of Garden.
In selecting the location for a home
vegetable garden the question of prox-
imity to the house should be given first
consideration. As the work of caring
for the garden is usually done In
spare time, the location selected should
be as near the house ns possible. The
slope and type of soil should be the
next considerations. A slope to the
south or southeast is usually prefer-
able, because here the soil warms up
early In the spring, which permits
early planting and stimulates the early
growth of crops. Practically any type
of soil can be used for the garden, but
u snndy loam Is to be preferred.
Good drainage is of prime import-
ance. The laud should have sufficient
some sections three or four crops cnn
he grown on the same land each year, 1
while In other sections two crops are j
all that can be grown to advantage, j
When a crop Is hurvested early In the
season and it is not practicable to
plant another vegetable for two or
three mouths, the land may be planted
to eowpeas or crimson clover.
Rotation of Crops.
Rotation of crops is us Important In
growing vegetables u? In growing Held
crops, and the same principles can be
applied. Crop rotation Is Important In
checking diseases and Insects and in
keeping the soil in good condition.
Where diseases are very severe, the
same crop should not be planted con-
tinuously on the same area. Rotation
of crops Is one of the safeguards
against soil Infection. Land upon
which a diseased crop has been grow n
should not be used for the same or a
closely related crop oftener than once
lu three years. It Is usually advisable
to rotate crops in such a way that
foliage crops (such as cabbuge, kale,
spinach, and mustard) follow root
crops (Irish potatoes, beets, parsnips,
carrots, etc.) or those grown for fruits
(tomatoes, peppers, melons, etc,).
This cun be accomplished In a measure
by changing the location of crops In
the planting plan or by reversing the
plan from year to year.
Preparation of Soil.
The soil that Is to be used for vege-
tables should be thoroughly prepared
before planting. A deep seedbed Is
desirable, and when on area that has
never been plowed more than four
Inches deep must be used It should be
deepened by gradually Increasing the
depth of plowing for a period of three
or four yeurs until the desired depth
Is attained.
Clay soil should be plowed In the
full if there Is no danger of washing,
so as to get It iu u good mechanical
condition before planting time. In
the cooler regions of the South freez-
ing will pulverize the soli, while In
regions where freezes do not occur the
pulverizing must be done by harrowing
and cultivation. Sandy loams or
soils thut contain u large umount of
AND NOW THEY ARE COOKING
TOBACCO TO MAKE IT BETTER
For a good many years The American
Tobacco Company have been conducting a
aeries of experiments having as their
object the improvement of smoking
tobaccos.
And it is interesting to know that one
of the greatest of their discoveries was one
of the simplest, and that was, that cooking
or toasting tobacco improved it in every
way, just as cooking most foods improves
them.
They took a real Burley tobacco, grown
in this country; toasted it as you would
toast bread; moistened it to replace the
natural moisture driven off by toasting;
made it into cigarettes, called them
"LUCKY STRIKE, the toasted cigarette,"
and offered them to the public.
The result has been the greatest demand
ever created for any tobacco product in a
similar length of time.
The change produced by toasting is not
only most wholesome, but the flavor is
greatly improved, just as cooking Improves
meaL for example.—Adv.

fall to drain off surplus water during
heavy rains, but the fall should not
be so great as to wash the soil. If the
land near the house Is level, artificial
drainage should be employed. Open
ditches or tile drulns will be satisfac-
tory. On level land that Is not arti-
ficially drained It is necessary to plant
on ridges or In beds to prevent drown-
ing the crops during wet weather. The
ridges or beds should be as wide and
flat as conditions will allow, for Bur-
row, sharp ridges dry out quickly.
Arrangement of Garden.
The first consideration In planning
the garden Is the kind of cultivation
to be given. Horse cultivation is rec-
ommended whenever possible, and
where the work Is to be done mainly
by means of horse tools the garden
should be long and narrow with the
rows running the long wuy. The gar
den should have no paths across the
rows, but turning spaces should be
left at the ends. For hand cultivation
the rows cun be much closer together
and may run across the gurden.
Straight lines should he followed, no
matter whut method of culture is
used.
The size of the garden depends upon
the number of persons to be supplied.
One-fourth to one-half an acre Is suf-
ficient for un average family und
should produce enough vegetables for
use throughout the year. By close at-
tention to the rotation of crops, the
succession of crops, and lnterplHUtlng,
one-fourth of au acre may be made to
supply a family of six. Where land Is
plentiful It Is recommended that a suf-
ficient area be set aside to allow part
of the garden to be planted to u soil-
improving crop each year.
The location of permanent crops,
such ns asparagus, rhuhurb, und small
fruits, should be carefully considered.
These crops should be placed at one
side, so that they will not be In the
way when the gurden Is plowed.
Succession of Crops.
In planning the location of crops,
consideration should be given to the
matter of succession, In order that the
land may be occupied us large a part
of the time- as possible. It Is not ad-
visable to have a second planting of
tbe same crop or a closely related crop
ollow the first. Cabbage should not
follow cauliflower, Brussels sprouts,
mustard, or kale, for many of the same
diseases and Insects affect all of these
crops. Tomatoes, cggplunts and pep-
ners should not follow euch other. In
fore planting .
Manures and Fertilizer*.
The soil for vegetable growing
should be rich and well supplied with
humus. Barnyard or stable manure 1*
the best fertilizer, because It furnlshe*
both plantfood and humus. An appli-
cation of 20 to 30 tons of manure to
the acre Is very satisfactory, and on
some soils this application wlfl need
hut little re-enforclug with commercial
fertilizers. The manure should be ap-
plied far enough In advance of plant-
ing time to allow It to decay. Where
coarse mnnure 4s used, It should be np-
piled In the fall and turned under, hut
well-rotted mnnure should be’applied
after plowing and should he well
mixed with the soil by harrowing. On
many soils It Is udvlsuble to appl.’ com-
mercial fertilizer, especially phos-
phates, In addition to the inunur.-.
Cultivation of Garden Crops.
Frequent shallow cultivation Sh Id
be given garden crops. By ke< ng
the surface of the soil stirred o ust
mulch Is formed, which preveuf. the
loss of moisture through the p< re lu
the soil and keeps down weeds.
The soil should be cultivated as - on
as possible after a rnln, to break the
crust und prevent baking. Sandy m la
may he cultivated when quite vet, I ut
clay soils should not be stirred w on
sticky. Too much emphasis canu ■ He
placed on the matter of thoroug i cul-
tivation. If the work Is properly onei
ut the right time there will be ttle
difficulty In controlling weeds. ,|
In cultivating the gurden, si all-1,
tooth cultivators should be used to '
vent ridging or furrowing. A t •n-
plow or sweep should not be used or
cultivation unless the land becomes so
woody that cultivation will not do the
work. Frequent cultivation kills the
weeds between the rows before they
become large, hut hund work will be
necessary to keep the soil stirred be-
tween the plants and to keep down
weeds In the row.
