Stop That Backache!
Those agonizing twinges across the
small of the back, that dull, throbbing
ache, may be your warning of serious
kidney weakness—serious, if neglected,
f6r it might easilv lead to gravel, stone
in the kidney, bladder inflammation,
dropsy or fatal Bright's disease. So if
you are suffering with a bad bick, have
dizzy spells, headaches, nervous, de-
spondent attacks or disordered kidney
action, get after the cause. Use Doan't

SEVERAL COMMON TROUBLES
Leaks In Water System Cause Exces-
sive Heating—Wrong Ignition Tim-
ing Will Result in Quick Jump
of Temper-ture.
I Overheating Is a rather common
i complaint lu summer, and some-
! times, while no serious results oc-
cur, the motorist Is delayed on the
road and eft en required to spend no
little time endeavoring to determine
the exact cause. Because there are
numerous causes, every owner should
be familiar with the more common
ones.
All makes of enrs but two are wa-
ter-cooled. Naturally, In such en-
gines partla' deletion of tbe water
system means an overheated engine.
This Is more particularly the case with
thermo-siphon cooled engines, which
require a complete circuit of water.
It Is therefore a good plan for the
owner of a car with thermo-siphon
cooled engine to see that the radltftor
always Is full. In a pump-cooled en-
gine there Is more force back of the
water and a lower level may be car-
ried without the danger of over-
heating.
Leaks in the water system natu-
rally bring about reduction of water
supply and consequent excessive
heating of what water remains.
Quick Heating.
Anything tending to Interfere with
the free circulation of the water
through the radlntor or the water
Jacket keeps the Jacket water In con-
tact with the hot cylinders too long,
resulting in boiling of that water.
Obstructions may be in the form of
dirt or sediment in the radiator,
disintegrated hose connection, which
partially clog the passageways; an
obstruction of dirt or lumps or rusty
material in tbe water Jacket.
It Is quite possible for the Ignition
timing to be wrong, so that manipu-
lation of the lever will not advance
the spark enough to keep the engine
cool. This is a matter for an Ignition
nan to correct, as It may be due to a
number of causes, the commonest be-
ing a wrong setting of the timer or
a maladjustment of the Interrupter
points.
One of the commonest causes of
overheating Is due to a slipping fan
belt. It Is absolutely necessary for
the fan to cause sufficient air draft
to cool the water as It flows through
the radiator. A slipping belt re-
duces the fan speed and thus cuts
down the draft. The belt should be
taut but not tight. Tight belts usu-
ally wear too fast and break, and they
also wear the pulley bearings.
Poor Mixture.
A poor mixture, usually a rich one,
brings about overheating. Carbon In
the cylinders also will cause the en-
gine to heat rapidly, but at the same
time the engine will lack power, knock
and generally perform poorly. If you
get the whole combination of trouble
Indicating engine debility and then
get the overheating, It usually Is a
sure indication of carbon.
Any drag on the engine, causing It
to overwork. Is likely to cause over-
heating. When the clutch slips the
engine has to do more work to accom-
plish a given set of results; also when
the brakes drag.
If the engine should overheat, the
sooner It Is stopped the better. After
stopping the engine, allow it to cool
for about ten or fifteen minutes; It
depends upon how hot It Is. Then
add cold water slowly until the sys-
tem is full. Then start the englna
again, noting through the radiator
filler If there Is circulation.
Repairing Rim Cuts.
Rim cuts are often given up
as hopeless by the car owner,
but^they can be repaired in the
following manner: Drill a series
ot holes on each side of the
break at intervals of three-
eights of an Inch and far enough
from the edge so that they will
not pull out. Lace tne holes
with a cord made of six strands
of braided fish line or any braid-
ed cord about 3-32 of an Inch lu
diameter. Soak this lacing in
paraffin or wax to make It wa-
terproof and then thread It
through the first hole, wind It
around the bead, through the
second hole and so on. Lot six
Inches of the cord hang over on
each end for tucking away. Fi-
nally place a blowout patch over
the lacing Inside thetihop to pro-
tect the tube against Injury.

To get the most out of the home
garden a number of crops, such as
snap beans, beets, lettuce, radishes
and peas, should be planted nt Inter-
vals to insure a continuous supply. In
the case of snap beans as many as five
plantings may be made In some sec-
tions of the country. In the southern
part of the United States special at-
tention should be given to the late
planting of the semlhardy crops for
late fall and winter use. These crops

A high-grade oil Is more economical

I winter storage. Beans, peas, carrots
' and beats for canning purposes should
be grown efthei very early In the sea-
son or quite late, 1n order to get the
finest quality of canned goods. A late-
planted crop of snap beans often
yields an abundant supply of very
tender pods which nre ready for can-
ning Just before the first frosts. These
usually make a better quality of
canned product than do those grown
at a time when they mature during
the heated portion of the season.
Too much stress cannot be placed
upon the need for gardeners to pro-
duce Irish potatoes during the remain-
der of the season. It Is now tn
begin thinking about planting a late
crop In sections where a late crop Is
grown. In the southern part of the
United States a late crop may be
planted In July or August, provided
enough moisture Is In tbe ground to
give the seed a start.
Gardeners are advised to plant the
standard crops and varieties, leaving
the Caney kinds of vegetables and the
novelties off their list. ,

the South a very excellent crop of

| sweet potatoes may be grown by tak-
ing vine cuttings from those that hav«*
been previously plaints! ..nd Inserting
these In ridges In place of rooted
plants. The sweet potatoes grown
from vine cuttings are usually free
from disease and are smooth and uni-
form, making them very desirable for
winter storage.
In ninny sections peas can be plant-
ed as lute as September and will yield
n very nice crop before cold weather
sets In. For this purpose tbe early
or quick-maturing sorts should be
used.
Can or Store Vegetables.
Large quantities of garden vegeta
hies are lost through want rC suitable
means of tuMng care of the surplus
This eun be done either by cunning or
by storage, depending upon the kind
of vegetable to be cared for. The se-
cret of filling tbe pantry shelves with
canned goods Is to can a little every
day during the season when vegeta-
bles are plentiful In the garden. Stor-
age facilities either In the form of a
special room la the cellar or a suitable
outdoor storage pit should be^provided.
In a few Instances arrangements with
the local cold storage or Ice factory for
the partitioning off of a small compart-
ment In their Ice storage room In which
vegetables that should be stored nt a
temperature near the freezing point
may be kept. This class of storage Is
especially desirable for apples and
Irish potatoes. Sweet potatoes should
always be stored In a warm place and
given plenty of ventilation.
In planning tbe garden operations
for the balance of the season, It Is well
to take Into consideration all of the
above features. First, grow the kind
of vegetables that are needed for can-
ning and storage; and, second, make
provision to can or store all that are
not needed for Immediate use.

Telegraphic Reports Sent From Big
Market Centers Every Fifteen
Minutes During Day—Much
Spoilage Is Avoided.
The federal bureau of markets news
services on live stock and meats, hay,
feeds, and seeds, and dairy products,
and fruits and vegetables, are de-
signed to keep before producers, dis-
tributors, and consumers a picture of
the movement of Important crops to
market, the supplies arriving In all of
the principal consuming and distribut-
ing centers and tbe wholesale prices
prevailing in each. To make Its re-
ports of the greatest practical useful-
ness, the bureau has equipped Itself
with the fastest system of communi-
cation available. Its branch offices In
tbe great consuming and distributing
markets are connected with leased
telegraphed lines and operated by bu-
reau telegraphers. These wires are
busy from eight to twelve hours a day
In the transmission of market Infor-
mation which is vital to Intelligent
and systematic food distribution.
From the time tbe live stock mar-
kets open In the morning until tbe
close of the day's business, the bu-
reau's representatives nt Chicago,
Kansas City, Omaha and East St.
Louis send out a telegraphic report
from one or the other of these mar-
kets every in minutes. The sales of
live stock In the Chicago yards alone
average more than $3,000,000 a day
and the value of tbe live stock sold In
the public stock yards of this country
Is more than SVXJO.OOO.OOO annually—
figures Indicating the Importance of
supplying Information that Is authori-
tative.
When a morket Is oVersuppiled with
a pwwluct—particularly a highly per-
ishable fruit or vegetable—a groat
waste results. The product spoils and
heroines unfit for use and the dealers
suffer a financial loss on account of
this spoilage and also on account of
the fuct that they must sell their
stockr* at a sacrifice In order to dis-
pose < f them at all. Oluts of this kind
used to occur frequently and were
nearly always coincident with a scarc-
ity of food in another place. Since
the market news service on fruits and
vegetables was Instituted, thla situa-
tion has Improved materially.
