PIMPLES ON FACE 3 YEARS
"I was troubled with acne for three
long years. My face was the only part
affected, but it caused great disfigure
ment, also suffering and loss of sleep.
At first there appeared red, hard
pimples which later contained white
matter. I suffered a great deal caused
by the itching. I was in a state of
perplexity when walking the street
or anywhere before the public.
"I used .pills and other remedies but
they failed completely. I thought of
giving up when nothing would help,
but something told me to try the Cutl
cura Soap and Ointment. I sent for
a Cuticura Booklet which I read care
fully. Then I bought some Cuticura
Soap and Ointment and by following
the directions I. was relieved in a few
days. I used Cuticura Soap for wash
ing my face, and applied the Cuticura
Ointment morning and evening. This
treatment Drougnt marvelous results
o I continued with it for a few weeks
and was cured completely. I can
truthfully say that the Cutlcura Rem

they claim to be." (Signed) G. Bau

of Danville, Va., to me well known, did ap
pear before me, and being duly sworn, de
pose th and says as follows:
"For ten vears prior to August, 1909, I
was under the care of a regular physician.
Last spring this doctor told me h? could do
me no good, and I tried another for lour
months without receiving any benefit from
him.
In August, 1909, I began taking Milam,
and am now able to do my .work without
difficulty, my appetite is good, and I can
eat and digest any food.
My trouble was said to be Scrofulitic
Consumption, and I was wasted away to a
shadow. 1 was so weak that 1 could hard

I regard MILAM as a truly valuable reme

eruptive, or proceeding from a lack of full,
free circulation.
I have recommended MILAM to about
twenty of my friends, and so far as I have
seen or heard from them, they all speak in

i FUTURE OF SOUTH BRIGHTEST
Probably Richest Section of United
States, Says New York Flnan
cier In Recent Issue.
In a recent Issue of the Financier,,
j New York, the following sentenoes oc
! cur: "Keep your eye upon the south,

j tlon of the United States. Ten years
j from now It will retain that distinc

Imagination can only gue6s, but we
consider that the citation of marvel
ous growth marks only the beginning
of the south's future, the answer to
Its ultimate destiny appears to be
definitely forecast."
It is known already that the south

' double what It has ever before pro

I that. It has been demonstrated that

! It will be in a comparatively short
j time, the commercial interests of the
section will at once be doubled and
quadrupled, and there are those living
who will see It Increased tenfold, says
the Knoxville Journal and Tribune.
The south is now the land of oppor
tunity. Men in other sections are see
ing it and It is not half so difficult to
induce investments here as it was a I
score or even ten years ago. The cen- 1
bus taken in the y?ar 1910 was a sub
stantial and telling advertisement for
the south and will stand as such for
a decade.
the requirements of the'general mar
ket.
2. The second plan Is to keep the
hogs lu small lots and feed corn
mainly. This has been proven un
profitable with corn at the average
price in the south. Hogs thus red
show a feverish condition, are restless
and are generally found rooting in the
fresh earth.
The cost of raising hogs when fed
on corn alone is generally estimated
at 5 cents pe'r pound, live weight,
when corn is worth 50 cents a bushel
aijd 7 cents a pound when corn Is
worth 70 cents a bushel, that is a
bushel of corn will usually make ten
pounds of gain live weight when
carefully fed to thrifty hogs. This
agrees with results at experiment sta
tions. But corn is not usually fed
with care, and when raised on corn
le Litter
alone bogs are seldom very thrifty/
consequently the cost will average
much greater than this. Investiga
tions show that seven pounds of gain
to the bushel of corn Is nearer the
result when corn la fed on the cob
without other food. Thla would place
the cost of live gain at 10 cents a
pound with 75-cent corn.
The best way to make hog raising
profitable the south Is to graze the
hogs upon pastures prepared especial
ly for them, supplementing the green
food by the addition of a small grain
ration. Upon this plan hogs can be
raised at an average cost of 1ft
cents to 3 cents a pound, depending
mainly upon the management of the
Sows and pigs and upon an economic
plan of fattening. |
GOOD CROPS FOR DRY FARMS
Mllo Maize, Kafir Corn, Sorghum, Pea
nuts and Millet Found to Be Ex
- " cedent in Southwest.
In the southwest nothing answers
better than milo maiee, kaflr com.
sorghum, peanuts, and millet These
can be grown in any part of the coun
try where care has been taken to
conserve the moisture enough to give
the plants a good start. Milo maize
is favored more than kaflr corn for
the reason that it will mature in a
slightly shorter time. Kaflr corn,
however, has the advantage that it
makes more fodder and fodder of a
better quality. Texas farmers plant
kaflr corn and plan to feed It in the
bundle. If they expect to head it
and feed It as grain alone they use
milo. 7
opmiisn peanuis are DecomiQg very
popular In some parts of Texas, and
as they are leguminous plants, they
fill a most important place in dry
farming. In fact, they occupy exact
ly the same position as red clover
and alfalfa do In the south. For a
long time it was thought that they
would not be adapted to dry farming,
but recent experiments both in Okla
homa and Texas demonstrate the
value of the peanut
To get the best results, the nuts
should be soaked for 24 hpurs and
then planted in a moist soli a little
before cotton planting time. About
one bushel per acre is usually plant
ed, and they are planted whole. This
will make the rows about 3Vi feet
apart, with the plants about 15 to 18
inches apart in the row. If there is
sufficient moisture to start the plants,
they will stand a long period of
drouth without, apparent damage.
Then when the rains do come they
will immediately set a large crop of
nuts. >
The hay is harvested by mowing
over the vines with the ordinary
mower, and when properly cured this
hay is classed alone with second-fate
alfalfa. The yield often amounts to
two tons per acre. For harvesting the
nuts the most satisfactory method is
to turn the hogs in and let them root
the vines up themselves. It is no un
common thing to secure from 600 to
1,000 pounds of pork per acre from
Spanish peanuts. Of course, if hogs
are not available, the vines will have
to be pulled and the nuts will remain
on them. As there isn't any very
strong market for peanuts, the only
reason for growing them is to use in
connection with farm animals. When
concentrated feeds are scarce, there
is no reason why Spanish peanuts
could not be grown with a great deal
of satisfaction.
Heavy Texas Turkeys.
A prize of 50 cents per pound for
the heaviest turkey submitted in a
Texjts contest resulted in bringing out
tome flue turkeys. The prize winner

Seed Must Be Used.
Few crops give more satisfactory re
sults for as many purposes than the
velvet fcsan. Its first use was for the
purpose of covering trellises, screens
of unsightly places. Its quick, rank
growth makeB it excellent as a cover
crop and for ornamental purposes.
This feature makes it objectionable In
citrus groves because of the danger
that the trees will be completely
shaded, or that the vines will inter
fere with gathering the fruit. In open
fields, however, It is not only an excel

the eradication of 'roublesome weeds.

part of the nitrogen, however, Is found
in the vines, leaves, and seeds. An
entire crop plowed under as a ferti
lizer has been found to add to each
acre ammonia equivalent to that ap
plied in 1,900 pounds of cottonseed
meal containing, 7.5 per cent, of am
monia. A ton of beans In the pod
contains 54.8 pounds of nitrogen, 31.8
pounds of potash, and 13.8 pounds of
phosphoric acid, having a fertilizing
value of $10 or $11. ^The bulls con
tain a much higher percentage of
phosphoric acid and potash. The time
of planting velvet beans depends upon
the latitude, season, and the purpose
for which the crop Is grown.
Sound Beed must be used to secure
the largest yield. If the beans are
planted In the pod. they may be
soaked over night to soften the pods
and hasten germination. This method
of planting wastes seed, prevents
planting by machinery, produces an
uneven stand by reason of poor germ
ination, and renders seed selection by
means of the fanning mill impossible.
Velvet beans may be Improved In yield
by seed selection. Aa the beans can
not be cultivated after the vines have
reached sny considerable length', prep
aration of the seed bed should be deep
and thorough.
The time of harvesting will depend
entirely upon the purpose for which
the crop haa been grown. If used for
hay, tbe crop should be cut Just when
the young bud3 are well formed, al
lowed to wilt about 48 hours, and
cured in the shock for several days.
To avoid loss through the dropping of
leaves, the vines must not become too
dry before being placed in the shock.
The velvet bean is a highly nitro
genous feed and should not be fed
alone, as such feeding has been re
ported aa causing abortion among
cattle and hogs and blind staggers in
horses. The hay when fed exclusively
to horses Is likely to cause , kidney
trouble, but this danger may be over-1
come by mixture with an equal
amount of crab-grass hay. It is also
stated that the fat of hogs fed too
exclusively on velvet beans is dark

as such; saved, if held where it would

They awoke to the fact that they must
conserve what they had left. Th?
subject of terracing was agitated, a
few pioneers terraced their farms,
and proved to the majority that th?
idea was practical. The farmers see
ing the benefits of this were not slow
to adopt the method and the result
is tfot they have reclaimed their
once depleted fields and are now
producing from one to one and a half
bales of cotton where only one
fourth bale per acre was a good yield
before terracing was adopted. 1
For uncounted ages the soil of

We must awake to the fact that our

that the farmers produce food and

millions, as well as themselves.
Conservation of soils and moisture
are items that affect all. and the
farmer, who is the man on the ground
and who has charge, must build for
the future, as well as the present.
The farm should be terraced, plow

Shoes on Farm Horses.
Farm horses should not be com
pelled to wear shoes any more than
is necessary. If you have no heavy
work at this time the shoes may be
removed now that the ice Is off the
surface of the ground. A shoe stunts
the natural growth of the hoof and
should not be worn too long without
being reset or the growth of the hoof
is cramped.

ONE CASE OUT OF MANY
TO PROVE OUR CLAIMS.'
St Anne, 111?MI was passing
through the change of life and I
was a perfect wreck from female
troubles. I had a displacement
and bearing down pains, weak
fainting spells dizziness, then
numb and cola feelings. Some
times my feet and limbs were
swollen- I was irregular and had
so much backache and headache,
was nervous, irritable and was
despondent. Sometimes my ap
petite was good but more often it
was not. My kidneys troubled
me at times and I could walk
only a short distance.
"I saw your advertisement in a
paper and took Lydia E. Pink
liam's Vegetable Compound, and
I was helped from the first. At
the end 01 two months the swel
ling had gone down, I was re
lieved of pain, and could walk
with ease. I continued with the
medicine and now I do almost all
my housework. I know your
medicine has saved me from the
grave and I am willing for you to
publish anything I write to you,
tor the good of others."?Mrs.
