Important to All Women Readers of This Papei Thousands upon thousands of women have kidney or bladder trouble and never tuspect it. Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease. If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased. You may suffer pain in the back, headache and loss of ambition. Poor health makes you nervous, irritable and maybe despondent; it makes any one so. . But hundreds of women claim that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring hefclth to the kidneys; proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions. Many send for a sample bottle to see nhat Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver »nd bladder medicine, will do for them. By mclomng ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Hinghamton, N. Y., you may receive sample size bottle by parcel post. You tan purchase medium and large size bottles at all drug stores.--Advertisement. DISCOVERY CAME TOO LATE Mrs. Garker Had Already Committed ipaial Error Which Was Extremely Hard to Explain. Mrs. Garker came home from a call one day in such a disturbed condition that It was evident tears were not far in the background. She lost no time in beginning her explanation.

(h*pu«4 by the United States Department of Agriculture.) There is usually a wide margin between the average price received by growers of cowpeas and the price paid by consuming farmers. Much of this margin is for services in the channels of trade that can be rendered more economically by the grower on the farm, says J. E. Barr, Investigator In marketing seeds, who has recently concluded for the United States Department of Agriculture an Investigation of methods of marketing cowpeas. Any effort on the part of growers to Improve the quality of their cowpeas will Inevitably bring them larger returns Mr. Barr •ay* : . :;C Better Marketing. Tire ^rtfdamentalB of tng of cowpeas are better preparation fbr market and care In determining the time of marketing and in selecting the agency through which the crop is sold. Better preparation for market includes recleanlng, after threshing or hulling, so as to remove all foreign matter and light-weight and broken seeds; and the use of sound sacks, securely tied or sewed. The services of recleanlng and sacking necessarily carry a cost with them, but by performing these services on the farm the grower will receive an Increased price for his cowpeas. Unstable markets for cowpeas are found to be due largely to the variation in demand And uncertainty of production in any section from year to year. The demand for cowpeas 1^ limited and is affected by the buying power of the farmer, the quality of the crop for planting purposes and the comparative price and supply of seed of other crops, notably soy beans and velvet beans, which compete in the crop rotation. Geographical preference for varieties is also an Important factor In the commercial distribution of cow* 8elllng Prtos Varies. The selling price of cowpeas'" varies with the commercial supply, the quality for seed, the variety, and the nearness to planting date. The price paid growers for cowpeas Is almost invariably higher as the planting season approaches. Some varieties sell at a premium of 25 to 50 per cent over the lowest- priced variety, while "mixed" varieties sell at a discount of 10 to 25 per ceat under straight varieties. Growers should recognise this fact, says Mr. Barr, and plant only pure seed of known varieties If It Is Intended to market the seed crop. The results of Mr. Barr's Investigations are contained in Farmers' Bulletin 1308, "Marketing the Cowpea Seed Crop," copies of \thich may be obtained free upon request to the United States Department of Agriculture, Washington. Four principal agencies through which growers may market their cowpeas are (1) neighboring farmers; (2) local shippers; (3) distant seedsmen or dealers; (4) through farm paper advertising direct to other farmers. The advantages and disadvantages of each of these methods are presented In the bulletin, so that the grower may be guided In choosing the agency which will return him the largest net amount for his product. Troublesome Weeds a Menace to Alfalfa (Prepared by the United States Department ot Agriculture.) Weeds are, perhaps, the greatest enemy of the alfalfa crop, says the United States Department of Agriculture. Dodder, which acta as a parasite on alfalfa plants, is very objectionable In seed-producing districts. It does not ordinarily give much trouble in fields that are devoted entirely to the production of hay, but nevertheless there is great prejudice against seed contaminated with dodder, and most states have stringent laws against the selling of seed containing It. It la relatively easy to kill out patches of dodder In a hay field. Other troublesome weeds are binegrass and quact^grass in northeastern United States; crab-grass and Bermuda- grass In the central and southern states; and foxtail or wild millet in the Middle West and the great plains. In the irrigated sections of the West the wild barleys, also known as foxtall and squirrel-tall grass, are decidedly troublesome, as the beards rain the first crop of hay for feeding unless It is cut jvery early. Where weeds are troublesome in the West, wheat is sometimes drilled in the alfalfa In the fall, and as It comes on early the growth of weeds is checked. The first cutting of hay the following spring consists of a mixture of alfalfa and wheat. Cultivation of established stands of alfalfa may help to hold weeds In check, but unless done with considerable care the crop may suffer. The best way to fight weeds Is to make conditions so favorable for alfalfa that they are smothered out. When weeds become abundant In an alfalfa field it Is usually better to plow up the field and make a fresh start than to try to rogue them out. Many More Elemental Eggs Than Any Hen Can Develop A pullet at maturity has a certain number of elemental eggs which may be developed. Counts at the Maine experiment station show from 1,000 to 8,500. More recent investigations show even greater numbers. There are always a great many more elemental eggs than any hen la capable of developing. The rapidity with which eggs are developed will depend upon the hen's Inherited ability to produce eggB and upon the feed and management of the flock. Profits from the flock will depend upon securing as many eggs as possible during the first couple of years of each hen's life. In addition to proper housing and feeding we must: 1. Breed from the best layers. 2. Hatch chicks early so that pullets will be ready for winter egg production. 3. Break broody hens as soon as possible and thus avoid long resting periods. Milk Indispensable in Feeding Young Chicks It is generally agreed that sour milk or buttermilk should not be fed to chicks In galvanized containers. When fed, glass, porcelain or earthenware utensils should be used. The lactic acid In the milk may act on the galvanized containers, resulting In a chemical combination which may prove poisonous, resulting in chick losses. Milk is indispensable in feeding chicks, and if properly fed there is absolutely no danger in feeding it. Perhaps the type of container has been responsible for the occasional report of unsatisfactory result in feeding milk. It Is, of course, necessary To keep LUa utensils clean. Rape Makes Excellent Pasture for Swine Herd Rape makes very good hog pasture. Sow any time up to midsummer. Rape will be ready for pasture six to eight weeks after it Is seeded. It may be sown alone or with any grain crop as desired. The grain may be fed off with the rape or It may be harvested and the rape pastured later as deaired. Sow four to five pounds per •cr*' ' Vaccination Recommended for Control of Blackleg Regardless of the perfection achieved In the control of blackleg the disease continues to exact consider^ able toll every year. Treatment of the sick animals, of course, Is fruitless. After death the carcasses should be disposed of by deep burying or, better still, by burning. The best way to combat the ^disease is by building up immunity in susceptible animals by vaccination. It should, however, be remembered that protection is not built up until after eight to ten days after vaccination. When the Immunity or protection is 'once established. It continues from fifteen to eighteen months. Ordinarily calves under six months and cattle over four years are not vaccinated, the disease being most prevalent between these two ages. Clean Chicken House to Eradicate Harmful Mites To eradicate mites a thorough cleaning of the chicken houses and spraying with a suitable disinfectant having a sufficient body is all that is necessary. All roosts, loose boards, and boxes should be removed and the disinfectant applied in the form of a rather coarse spray, using a suitable pump. Some of the best materials for the purpose are the so-called wood preservers which consist of anthracene oil and zinc chlorid. As a mixture of this kind is a little too heavy to spray well, it may be thinned with an equal part of the kerosene. Crude petroleum Is almost equally effective and is usually cheaper. It should be thinned by adding one part of kerosene to four parts of crude olL • ' Outline of Method for Seeding Sweet Clover A good method of seeding sweet plover or other clovers is to sow it on oats ground. It may be sowed at the same time and with the same machine If a drill with grass seed attachment is used; or It may be sowed after the oats are sowed and the seed covered by harrowing or rolling. Sweet clover Is not likely to smother out the oats, though on some timber lands which are rich in minerals and poor in organic matter it might happen that the clover would tend to check the growth of the oats. If the land is rich enough in organic matter to grow good oats the clover will not be likely to Injure the oats to kny extent. Farmer Should Work Hard to Keep Down All Weeds This Is the season of the year when the farmer should work hard to keep down weeds. They are more easily killed now than later and the crops will nave a better opportunity to keep the weeds subdued. Just before harvest time is on in full blast the farmer usually has a little breathing time In which this work can be done before the weeds have time to develop sise sufficient to resist ordinary treatment. How Emmer Is Compared With Oats for Fattening Bmmer closely resembles oats in composition, and like oats Is rather bulky to use as the only concentrate for fattening animals, and gives better results when mixed with corn or barley. For fattening its value is a little lower than that of corn. In poultry rations, consider Its value as that for oats, and If hulled, very slightly higher from the protein standpoint. Soy Beans Provide Feed - for Dairy Cow in Winter In order to provide a winter's sup> ply of cow hay equal to alfalfa in feeding value, try soy beans. In ordinary seasons a crop of soy beans grown immediately after the removal of the wheat crop will yield from one to two tons of hav an acre. The wheat stubble should be plowed and the beane drilled at the rate of 40 to 60 pounds an acre. any time up to $.\igast i earlier seeding being oreferred, TRAINED CATFISH HELPS FISHERMEN Makes' Nine-Mile Trips Harnessed to Trailing Lines With Baited Hooks. BRINGS IN BIG Three Mile Bay, N. Y.--Seth Small of this place and William Loomls of Chaumont, who are partners in tha clseo chasing industry and who, during the shipping season, ship tons of these edible fish to distant markets, have developed a most remarkable schemejtor making their dally catchea, Whentlifc law came In which fofcv bid them to use nets, they found they were unable to accomplish much with ordinary hooks and lines. Their daily catches were never large enough to constitute a paying shipment, and they were about decided to go out of the Cisco business. One day they hooked an 80-pound catfish and managed to get It Into a large tank tbey used for the storage of live fish. They began training the big cat to follow them as they passed around the tank at feeding times. Seth and Bill took turns at feeding it, and when it got so that It knew each they fashioned a "muskey** line harness for "Bunko Chief' Led Dual Life for Twenty Years Denver, Colo.--"He has lived a dual life for 20 years.

ASYLUM PATIENT RUNS AMUCK WITH A RAZOR Trained Catflah. i It, from which trailed a dozen or more lengths--50 or 60 feet long--with small hooks sttached at intervals of about six Inches. Fish Followed Them. The cat was taken down to the bay and put back Into the water. Rill would walk along the shore, around the "point," and In the direction of Chaumont, scattering food the while, and the cat would foilpw him. Then Seth would go over to Bill's village and repeat this performance, also returning to the bay by following the shore around the point. Then the hundreds of hooks were baited with bits of smoked halibut, crab meat and worms, and BUI or Seth would set out, as Just explained, and the cat would follow them for the sake of the foodstuffs that the partners tossed to It as they walked along. But now, It should be stated, neither man makes the entire trip from village to village. After going about a quarter of a mile they dodge Into the woods ahd return to their homes. The big cat keeps on his way, and generally arrives In one or the other of its home ports with the trailing lines fairly weighed down with clscoes and larger fish, such as pike and pickerel, with an occasional "muskey" for the fishermen's good luck. While the catfish only weighs 80 pounds, there are occasions when It comes to Its landings with over a hundred pouqds of fish on its hooks. It usually makes two nine-mile trips daily, but Just at present the clsco Industry is at a standstill, as the big catfish Is suffering from rheumatism or something, due to Its steady confinement in the tank during the long winter months.

Topeka, Kan.---After terrorising an entire ward by attempts to kill its occupants and nearly killing several attendants with a razor he bad smuggled into the ward, William Barnes, thirty-nine, an inmate of the Kansas State Hospital for the Insane here, turned the razor on himself, severing his windpipe and three arteries, which resulted in his death. Pandemonium followed in the insane asylum ward when the maniac ran amuck. Barnes had just carried a baain of hot water into the room of L. W. Lilly, an attendant, when he returned to the ward with the razor he had taken from Lilly's room. With the other inmates shrieking warnings, Lilly ran toward Barnes, attempting to secure the razor. For a short time the two fought, but Lilly was soon overpowered, and only the approach of another attendant, B. F. Young, aaved his life. * Young's coat sleeves were slashed off by the Insane man, but no serious Injuries were inflicted. Other Inmates in the ward formed a circle around the fighting men, most of them shouting with delight at the battle on the floor. Others who Interfered were slashed by the razor in the hands of the raving Barnes. Strengthened by maniacal fury, Barnes for nearly a quarter of an hoyr resisted all attacks, but finally, overpowered by doctors and attendants, he succeeded In turning the razor on himself, nearly severing his head from his body. Death followed almost immediately. MAN EXPECTED SWIFT DEATH Farmer Went Armed for Twenty-Eight Years, Heeding Slayer's Threat, but Died In Hla Own HomeJ Tlie bullet which he had expected for 28 years did not kill Peter Mc- Guire, eighty-five years old. Peter died the other day at his little farm in Otoe county, Nebraska. He died in his own bed, but near it still stands the rifle he had kept near during the long years. On his belt, hanging to a IffiH. In the wall, was the pistol he carrmr wherever he went. For 28 years Peter McGuIre awaited the vengeance of a man be had sent to prison. The convict threatened to kill McGulre when he was released from prison. The slaying of the aged man's brother was at the bottom of It all. McGulre trailed the two slayers and sent them both to prison. One was killed when his friends attempted to free him; the other, Walter Harding, went to prison for 25 years and threatened revenge. Peter, believing that revenge would be sought, carried a pistol wherever he went. At night he had a rifle within reach while he slept. But the convict never came. Some believe that he has been dead these many years. But McGulre remained on guard'until the last. Coughs Up Tack After Three Years.
