Had To Give Up
Was Almost Frantic With the Pain
and Suffering of Kidney Com- j
plaint Doan’s Made Her Well.
Mrs. Lydia Shuster, IS3B Margaret
St., Frankford, Pa., says: “A cold start-
e< i kidney trouble. My back began
to ache and got sore and lame. My
joints and ankles became swollen and
painful and it felt as if
needles were sticking in- asS&s&Tv
to them. I finally had
to jjive up and went 3k !
from bad to worse. “--v|

distressing. I had aw

couldn’t see for twenty minutes. Aw
ful pains in my head set me almost
frantic and I was so nervous, I couldn’t
stand the least noise. How I suffered!
Often I didn't care whether I lived or
died.
“I couldn’t sleep on account of the
terrible pains in my back and head.
Nothing seemed to do me a bit of good
until I began taking Doan's -Kidney
Pills. \ I could soon see they were heln
ing me; the backache stopped, mv kid
neys were regulated and I no ionger
had any dizzy spells or rheumatic pains.
I still take Doan's occasionally and
they keep my kidneys in good health.”

Rectifying Her Mistakes.
In the midst of war England has
discovered the absolute necessity of
rebuilding her school system, of re
turning to a shorter workday In her
factories and of encouraging the up
bulMiwg of the child welfare agencies
that gave up their activities earlier in
the war, notes the Red Cross Maga
zine. Sir Herbert Fisher asked in par
liament last spring for an increase of
£3,829,000 over last year’s educational
budget. The committee on juvenile ed
ucation has recommended a general
fourteen-year age limit for leaving
school throughout England with the
abolition of ail exemptions, and the es
tablishment of day continuation
schools for children between fourteen
and eighteen with compulsory attend
ance for at least eight hours a week.

“There** a Reason*’
INCREASE IN PRICES
Meat Animals Show Advance of
52.7 Per Cent in Year.
Sheep, Lambs and Hogs Have Far Ex
ceeded Beef Cattle, Veal Calves
and Chickens in Upward
Price Movement.
(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Prices received by farmers for meat
animals showed an increase of 52.7
per cent in a year, according to the
latest report to the U. S. department
of agriculture. The report for cattle,
sheep, and hogs is for the year ending
September 15, and for chickens, Oc
tober 1.
The advance for beef cattle per 100
pounds, live weight, was from $0.55 to
$8.40, or 28 per cent; for veal calves
per 100 pounds, from $8.77 to $ll.OB,
or 26 per cent; sheep per 100 pounds,
from $6.25 to $10.05, or 61 per cent;
iambs per 100 pounds, from $8,22 to
$18.06, or 59 per cent; hogs per 100
pounds, from $9.22 to $15.69, or 70 per
cent, and chickens, from 14.3 to 18.1
cents per pound, or 27 per cent Sheep,
lambs, and hogs have far exceeded
beef cattle, veal calves, and chickens
In the upward price movement at the
point of production.
The highest price at the farm per
100 pounds, live weight, reached dur
tng the year under review, was $8.70
for beef cattle In May, $ll.OB for veal
calves in last September, $10.15 for
sheep In May, $13.06 for iambs in last
September, $15.69 for hogs In last
September, and 18.1 cents per pound
for chickens October 1 of this year.
The latest farm price reported is the
highest one of the year for veal calves,
lambs, hogs, and chickens; the May
price was the highest for beef cattle
and sheep.
IMPORTANT EFFECT OF WAR
Demand for Horses Has Not Been So
Far-Reaching as Great Many Be
lieved, Says Expert.
That the effect of the war on the
demand for horses has been important
but not so far-reaching as many per
sons have been led to believe, Is the
opinion of Dr.'C. W„ McOampbell, (as
sociate professor of animal husbandry
In the Kansas State Agricultural col
lege.
“Since the beginning of the war ap
proximately 1,000,000 horses have been
exported from the United States,” said
Doctor McCampbeil. “This is a large
nuifiber when considered in the aggre
gate, but when compared with the total
r™ -n
Percheron Stallion at Beltsville Farm.
*
horse population it has not been par
ticularly large—2% per cent of the
whole or one out of every forty horses.
“The United States government has
not made heavy purchases to date and
the latest information from the quar
termaster general's office states that
only horses from six to ten years old
weighing from 950 to 1,850 pounds are
being purchased.
“The British demand a neater,
smoother, better-made, better-gaited,
and sounder horse than the French and
have been willing to pay more for their
horses. Most of the horses taken have
weighed less than 1,400 pounds—a type
for which there Is very little commer
cial demand. Marketmen express the
opinion that this class of horses would
be selling for SSO per head less were it
aot for the war demand.”
PREVENT DISEASES ON FARM
Loss of Young Animals Can Be Re
duced by Cleaning Out Stable
and Disinfecting.
A good job for the first rainy day.
From 6 to 10 per cent of the young
animals are lost each year from such
Infectious diseases as calf scours, hog
Cholera, blackleg, contagious abortion,
navel ill of sucklings, distemper and
other infectious diseases.
Reduce this loss of young animals
from infections diseases by cleaning
Ihe stable thoroughly and disinfecting
with whitewash to which has been
added 2 per cent crude carbolic acid
or 5 per cent coal-tar dip. This is
easily applied to the walls, ceiling and
Boors with a spray pump.
FURNISH CHICKENS PURE AIR
Windows of Hen Houses Should Be
Kept Open During Middle of Day
During Bevere Weather.
Open the hen house windows In all
•xcept the severest weather, during the :
middle of the day, so that the sun and i
air can get In and purify the bouse ;
and give the fowls plenty of good air <
to breathe. If they can be made to ]
exercise vigorously while the windows <
are open, they will not suffer any harm <
from the cold, even if it Is severe, and ;
will be healthy.

TO PREVENT NOXIOUS PEST 3
demean College Bulletin Gives Plan
for Destroying Weed Seeds in
Barnyard Manure.
fCJemson College Bulletin.)
Barnyard manure may become badly
infested with weed seeds on account
of hay which contains various kinds
of seed being fed to live stock. Too
often the land is infested with nox
ious weeds from this source.
This danger may be overcome, says
the agricultural extension division of*
Clemson college, by keeping manure in
piles 6 to 10 feet high from four to six
weeks. The heat and fermentation
produced in such piles has been found
to kill practically all the weed seed
with the exception of a few on the sur
i face of the pile. These can also be
1 destroyed by putting the surface ma
nure under the bottom of a new pile.
By this method the farmer may safely
, use the manure from livery stables or
such other places.
RUST WEARS OUT MACHINERY
_______ •
Cost of Farm Implements Can Be Re
duced by Making Every Tool
Last Much Longer.
The price of farm machinery has
been advancing for some time. The
cost can be reduced by making every
machine last longer. A large propor
tion of farm machinery wears out too
soon because it is not given proper
care and attention. More machinery
is worn away every year by rust and
weather than by service. The life of
any machine may be lengthened by
protection from weather, good lubrica
tion, and prompt attention to repairs.
Farm machinery frequently is left
standing in the field throughout the
winter. Housing not only protects the
Implements from rust but leaves them
in good condition for use the follow
ing season.
BUYING EWES FOR BREEDING
Not Profitable In Starting of Flock to
Purchase Old Animals—Adopt
Culling System.
Be cautions In buying the breeding
ewes. It does not pay in the starting
of a flock to buy old ewes. If there
Is an advantage to be had in getting
all there is in animal breeding service,
surely it is Important In the starting
of the flock. It is also important to
adopt a system of culling out each
year. The same may be applied In the
produce of the flock. It is usual to
produce some females that are not
up to the standard of the flock. Every
flock should be bought, bred and culled

CROPS DESTROYED BY SMUT
Few Cents' Worth of Formaldehyde
and Little Labor Will Save Much
Wheat and Rye.
It Is estimated that 3% per cent of „
the wheat crop and 1 per cent of the
rye crop Is destroyed by smut—prob
ably about 27,500,000 bushels loss a 5
year on the average. When a few
cents’ worth of formaldehyde and a
little labor will save a man his spare
of this loss, it is hard to see how he
can afford not to go to the trouble
rather than lose 85 bushels of hie
wheat out of every LOOO.
