First, I had a bad case of stomach trouble^ was simply chock full of sourness and gas, had a general distressed feeling and a burning pain Id my stomach that I couldn't get rid of. With my appetite wrecked and digestion ^one, I became awfully weak, nervous and run down and could get scarcely any or sleep at all "Tanlac answered every demand made upon it in my ease and today my digestion is sound as- a dollar, I have an immense appetite, and with every ache and pain gone, I am sleeping fine and feeling strong and energetic as of old.

(Prepared by the Cntt«d States DepartmeM of Asrlcaltur*.) Many successful fanners of the present dny own an automobile and a tractor, sometimes more than one automobile or more than one tractor. These are considered necessary equipment In the conduct of their work. The automobile and tractor require constant attention and care to keep them tn running order and up to full efficiency. The same is true of the work homes on the farm. They must be fed and housed and given proper attention if they are to do the work required of them. But is the welfare of the farm* er himself and his family being looked after as thoroughly as that of his automobile, his tractor and his farm team? Is his table as well supplied with foods that make for efficiency and the highest type of both physical and mental development? It is generally supposed that the farmer lives well, but there Is abundant evidence to show that in many cases he does not. In fact, his tabte Is often not so well supplied with desirable fruits and vegetables as are the tables of the people living In the cities who are supplied from his and other farms. Qarden SidetracRed. Hie farm garden, which during the early days of civilization in this country was a reeognized Institution, hns In a measure and to a considerable degree been sidetracked in the tendency toward farm specialisation. This is especially true in the "one crop" sections. The argument advanced by the farmers Is "that It does not pay to have a garden, since one or two more acres of cotton, corn or wheat will bring enough money to buy all the vegetables needed by the family." The fact Is that the money received for the cotton, corn or wheat go to pay running expenses and the vegetables are not purchased and the farmer and his family go without till* element of their living. It Is reported that one western wheat farmer was offered only 63 cents a bushel for his 1022 wheat crop which cost him 92 cents a bushel to produce. It is difficult to see how that farmer can purchase many fruits or vegetable* for his table on the profits of his wheat crop. The argument that it does not pay to have a garden can be disproved, for It is a fact that no other similar area of land on the farm give* so great a return tn actual value as the garden. The truth of the matter Is the average farmer who plants a garden uses the products on his own table without making any calculation as to their value. At the end of the season the vegetables have been eaten and forgotten about and the impres» si on on the mind of the farmer Is that they had no value. Valuation of Qarden. From the development of tbs thousands of backyard and community gar-.. work conducted by the boys' and girls' clubs, fostered by the United States Department of Agriculture, a basis for the valuation of farm and backyard gardens has been established. Market values of $75 to $150 from one-tenth acre of land are numerous and it Is safe to estimate that one-half acre of well cared for farm garden will give a va|M8 at not lesa than $160 per season. CROPS FOR SPRING PllNTINQ Rhubarb and Asparagus Do Better jf Planted Early In Seasen Rich Soil Needed. Rhubarb and asparagus may be planted in the fall, but most gardeners prefer spring planting in the North. Fall planting will give good results In the South where the roots are not Injured by frost. Both these plants thrive best in a very rich sandy loam, but will give good results In any soil that is not wet aad is well filled with humus. Rhubarb roots containing one or two eyes are set about three Inches deep In rows four feet apart and from two to four feet apart in the row, depending on the richness of the soil and variety. Pinnaeus and Victoria are popular varieties. Qlve frequent shallow cultivation during the growing season. Remove seed stalks when they appear. Asparagus needs much the same treatment MAKING USE OF CURRYCOMB Best-Liked Grooming Tool for Lazy Haft--Never Uae It en Afti* v, mal's Head or Legsi The use of the curry ;-omb Is very much abused, because it is the bestliked grooming tool for the lazy man, as it makes possible a quick grooming. It should not be used much upon the animal's body, and never upon the head or upon die legs, except for dirt that cannot be brushed off. Its greatest use Is for cleaning the body brush. It does enable much quicker grooming where it Is employed for the entire body, and in some thick, heavy-coated, thick-skinned horses it may do no particular harm. Oats Good Growing Feed. Oats Is a good growing feed for all kinds of young stock, and Is the standard grain feed for horses in many parts of the country. It has a high protein content and Is easily digested, says the United States Department of Agriculture. t ] 'I i m Laying Hen la »us* „ , The laying hen is also a busy hen.

It is not only essential that the parts are adjust« so as to fit the horses properly, but the harness requires to be occasionally dressed with some softening preservative, so that it will be kept strong, durable and attractive. •s It takes a day or two to go ever the harness In a thorough manner. It Is well to choose a time when there is no work for the horses. However, it will not be difficult to allow the horses a few days' rest daring the winter weather. When dressing a harness It is just ss well to give it a good overhauling while you are at It. Take all the straps off the harness, breeching, backband and bridle apart. If any parts are broken or badly worn they should either be replaced or renewed. Then give all the parts a thorough washing with a good harness soap. This well nibbed In and applied with a sponge. . After the harness is well dried it caa receive a dressing of some softening and waterproofing preservative, such as neatsfoot oil, or any of the other good dressings which are on the market.

SOY BEAN GROWN WITH CORN Becoming Very Popular Crop In Corn Belt as It Is Adapted to WMe Range of Soils. \ -The soy bean can be grown success fully with corn and Is becoming a very popular crop In the Cora Belt, as It can be hogged down and helps to balance the ration of corn. It can be grown on a wide range of soils, but inoculation la necessary when It Is grown for . the first time, says the United States Department of Agriculture. The hay from this crop contains a high percentage of protein and is palatable. This plant adds a great deal to the value of silage when It is grown with silage corn.

Somewhat Prevalent Error Is in Considering Them to B« Something of a Race Apart. Orators snd literary folk of a certain widespread school seem to imagine that business men are all alike; that is, dishonest and prosperous from robbing the poor. The truth is many business men are themselves poor. Many of them fail because of unreliability, idleness, extravagance, lack of intelligence. Business men are like any other class of men; some of them capable, .reliable. Industrious and successful. and some of them the reverse. Thousands of proletarians are in business, as thousands of our best men are working for wages and in training; to occupy the big positions and enjoy the big incomes^ In any group of business men, most of them do not jainount to much, as is the case in any other group. The rich were robbed In Russia because they were aristocrats by birth. It cannot be done In the United States because here the well-to-do come up from the ranks, snd are the best fighters ss Well ss ,--from E.

A crude switchboard had been used in Boston in 1877, but only for experimental and demonstration purposes. Its chief function was to convince the people of Boston and casual visitors of the utility of the telephone snd at Its future possibilities, says Telephone Press Service. The ancestor of the modern cnmmeit da I telephone switchboard was Installed In New Haven, Conn., in 1878. Prom Its eight lines has been evolved the network of wires and cables which covers the country from coast to coast. From a single switchboard the number of central offices within a city has Increased to over 100., From less than a dozen subscribers* stations, the total within the limits of fi single city has mounted In several cases to over 100,- 000 and In one case to over 1,000,000. Under one roof as many ss 20,000 lines are switched and central offices are now planned with a capacity of more than double that number. The Brute!
