A WORLD-WIDE RESPONSE Although the International Congress for working women is not scheduled to meet until October 17, the answer to the call for delegates to /the conference is'said to have received a- tremendous i-esponse. In France, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Australia, l orto Rico, and even far-off China, where Miss Zung, of the Young Women's Christian Association, will start on !>,her long journey, women are turning eager faces toward Geneva, where will ^'gather the largest convention of work[ ing women ever held in the history of ! industry. At this congress action will be taken regarding the nature of a mej morial to be established in the name . j of Mary McArthur, who was well known in English labor circles dur- , ing her life as head of the British Women's Trade Union League. The 1 sentiment in this country seems to favor tlie formation of scholarships enabling a group of women annually to attend labor training schools. The first decided step in the education of the women workers in the United States was taken v in 1913. f The Key that Unlocks the Door to / Long Living The men of eighty-five and ninety years of age are not the rotund, well fed but thin, spare men, who live on a slender diet. Be as careful as he will, however, a man past middle age will occasionally eat too much or of some article of food not suited to his constitution, causing indigestion or constipation and will need a dose of Chamberlain's Tablets to move his bowels and invigorate-, his stomach. When this is done, there is no reason why the average man should not live to a ripe old age. rttE UNIVERSAL CAR 4 V fKI' ord: r m> ? \ B mc actors ices f. o. b. Del starter.

Of the influence the Chicago insti- i tution has had in furthering the well-} being of the working woman, Missf Alice Henry, secretary of the educa- j i tional department, says: "Students have come from a great variety of occupations. They have j' been shoe workers, garment workers. 1 glove workers, brewery worekrs, textile workers, telephone operators, and even one ex-teacher, who said that she was not leaving education work, but only tarrying it over on fresh 1 lines- and new channels.

Sept. 5.?The average, ton growth of crimson clover on our average soils will take from the air and add to every acre fortyfive pounds of nitrogen which will .cost eight or ten dollars in commercial fertiliser, according to N. E. Winters .extension specialist in soil fertility, who advises that wherever crimson clover is adapted in this state it is one of our best wnter cover crops for plowing under for a spring crop. The little bacteria which live at the roots of the crimson clover, work all winter, day and night, while we are asleep and while we are awake, and take from the God-given air the ni "I Spent $1.25 on Rat-Snap and Saved the Price of a Hog."

The only way to determine this is by trying it, but if in doubt be sure to inocluate as follows: Homegrown seed with the husk on may be simply rolled in moist dirt taken from the top six inches. of an inoculated field?one that has been growing crimson clover, or red clover, or white dutch clover. With clean thrashed seed, it is best to moisten the seed with a little water to which enough molasses has been added to make it just a little sticky, and then stir into the seed some "inocluated dust which has been previously dried and pulverized in the shade. Failures are sometimes made with crimson clover on very poor hard clay or deep sand. On these poorest soils it is safer to use rye and vetch as winter cover crops. Crimson clover is better adapted to a soil having a loam or sandy loam surface, although the poorest soils with proper management can be put into condition to grow successfully crimson clover. More failures with the crimson clover . Hail's Catarrh Medicine Those who are in a "run down" condition will notice that Catarrh bothers them much more than when they are in good health. This fact proves that while Catarrh is a local disease, it is greatly Influenced by constitutional conditions.
