write you a few lines In regard to
your medicine, Cardul, the woman's
tonic.
Before my marriage I lived in Evansville,
Ind. I suffered very much
with womanly trouble. I thought, at
times, that I would nearly die with
pains in my stomach, and backache.
I saw your medicine advertised, and
sent and got a bottle. The first bottle
^eipcd me, and 1 haven't been bothered
with any of my old troubles since.
After my marriage, 1 lived in Mt.
Vernon, lnd., and one of my neighbor's
Rlrls suffered like I did. I told them
to give her Cardui, the woman's tcnic,
as it would help her, and it certainly
did. right awav.
I will surely recommend Cardui to
nil women, for I think it is a good medicine
for all kinds of womanly
trouble."
If you are suffering from any of the
ailments peculiar to weak women. .
such as headache, backache, sideache,
nervousness, sleeplessness, etc.. we
urge you to give Cardui, the woman's
tonic, a trial.
It should surely do for you. what it
has done for thousands of others, in
the past half century, who suffered
with similar troubles.
Begin taking Cardui today. Your
druggist sells it.

Growth of Drug Habit in United States
Alleged to Be Due to Opiates
Ordered in Prescriptions.
That 99 per cent, of all the cocaine .
and morphine manufactured in this
country 1b used by persons who have
formed the drug habit through physicians'
prescriptions is the startling
statement made by Dr. L. F. Kebler.
Chief of the Division of Drugs. Department
of Agriculture. This statement,
concerning the appalling growth of
drug uddlction in the I'nited States,
was made by Dr. Kebler in an address
at Washington, before the American
Society for the Study of Alcohol and
Narcotics.
Dr. Kebler is quoted by "Washington
papers as having declared that drug
using had increased 100 per cent, in
the last 40 years, and that American
medical men verc not discriminating
enough in their use of opiates. Their
overindulgence to their patients, he
said, is creating thousands of drug
users every year.
"It is a very Bad thing to say that
our physicians are doing the greatest
work in promoting the use of cocaine
and morphine," said the doctor "State
laws are not saving the public from
the grip of the drug habit, and the
American public is sinking tighter
Rnd tighter into the black abyss of
the morphine and cocaine fiend.
"The worst of it is that the importation
of opium into the country is
becoming larger and larger year by
year. I have heard it said on reliable
authority that f>f? per cent, of the cocaine
and morphine manufactured in
this country is used by persons who
have formed the habit through " doctors'
prescriptions."
Almost simultaneously w ith Dr. Keb
ler's address, Dr. J. A. Patterson, at
Grand Kapids. Michigan, in a public
statement said that 111 out of every i!0
patients who come to an institution
wiui wntcn lio is connected for treatment
for the drug habit owe their
downfall to physicians' prescriptions.

PRODUCTION OF COMB-HONEY
5ne of Fundamental Requirements of
Equipment In Hives Is That
They Be Uniform in Size.
(By GEORQh! S. DEMUTH.)
A beehive must serve the dual purpose
of being a home for a colony of
bees and at the same time a tool for
the beekeeper. Its main requirements
are along the line of its
nua|naiIUU ?u mr vanuuo iiulu I |>II IUlions
of the apiary in so far as these
?lo not materially interfere with the
protection and comfort it affords the
colony of bees. Since rapid manipulation
is greatly facilitated by simple
and uniform apparatus, one of the
fundamental requirements of the
equipyient in hives is that they be of
the same style and size, with all parts
exactly alike and interchangeable
throughout the apiary. While the
hives and equipment should be as
simple and inexpensive as possible,
consistent with their various functions.
a cheap and poorly constructed
beehive is, all things considered, an
expensive piece cf apparatus.
For comb-honey production the
brood chamber should be of such a
size that by proper management it
may ut_* wen nneu w uu uiuun 111 me
beginning of the honey How, so that
the brood and surplus apartments
may be definitely separated. A brood
chamber may be considered too large
if by proper management it is not on
an average fairjy well filled with
Super With Section Holder for Beeway
Sections.
brood at the beginning of the honey
flow, and too small if it provides an
average of less room than the colony
is able to occupy with brood previous
to the honey flow. Unless the beebeeper
practices feeding, a brood
chamber that does not contain sufli i
cient room for both winter stores an?l
brood rearing during lute summer and
autumn may also be considered too
small. It may be well to note that
by this standard, if the'brood chamber
seems to be too small the fault may
lie in the management during the
previous autumn, winter or spring.
Of course the brood chamber that is
barely large enough for one colony
will be too large for another in the
same apiary, or the character of the
season may be such that all brood
chambers may be too small for best
results one season and too large the
next, so an average must be sought.
The sectional hive in which the
brood chamber is composed of two or
more shallow hive bodies, making it
horizontally divisible, offers some advantages,
especially to the combhonev
specialist. Most of the ordinary
manipulations can be performed
readily with such hives without re
moving the frames. Oue of their
greatest advantages in comb honey
production is the rapidity with which
the apiarist can examine the colonies
for queen colls if natural swarming is
to be controlled by manipulation.
Some of the advantages of the plain
over the beeway sections are: (1)
The.v nre simpler in construction,
therefore costing less. (21 The edges
being plain with no insets, the plain
sections are more easily cleaned of
pro|>olis when being prepared for
market and are especially adapted
to cleaning by machinery. (3) By
leaving the spacers in the super, sections
of the same honey content oc
cupy less space in the shipping case,
thus reducing the cost of packages.
(4 I The plain section is adapted to an
arrangement permitting freer communication
lengthwise of the row of
sections, especially at the corners.
Some of the advantages of the beeway
section are: <ll The honey is
somewhat less liable to injury by
handling. (2) Being wider at the

corners where folded Ihev nre
stronger. (.'t> Some markets, being
accustomed to the larger cases necessary
to contain a given number of
beeway sections, object to the smaller
package containing the same number
of plain sections, simply because It is
smaller.
Unfavorable Soils.
v lay soils are unfavorable to vegeation
because the soil is too close and
adhesive to allow the free passage of
air or water to the roots of the plants.
It also obstructs the expansion of the
fibres of the roots. Sandy soils are
unfavorable because the* consist of
particles that have too little adhesion
to each other. They do not retain sui
ftcient moisture for the nourishment of
the plants They allow too much solar
heat to pass to the roots. Chalk
soils are unfavorable becauso they do
not absorb the sclar heat, and are.
therefore, cold to the roots of the 1
plants.
Indicates Sour Soil.
If any one of the several kinds of
sorrel is found growing on a piece
of land it is pretty safe to asaume that
the soil is sour and needs sweetening
with an application of lime, Hesides
this, ic may be that the traot Is not

M0LAS9?S FOR DAIRY COWS!
Used by Farmers in North More Than
Ever Before, but Not Yet Found
Entirely Satisfactory.
(By WALTER B. LEUTZ.)
t_ s._? ? . a.
uiuic iiiuiassvs i? uc mg iea in tne
north than ever before, but most dairy j
farmers are not vet satisfied that it is
profitable.
In an experiment at the Hatch station.
Prof. J. B. Lindsey says: "Molosses
contains about o per cent, of
protein and 70 per cent, of digestible
sugar.
"Compared with corn meal." says
Prof. Lindsey, "it equals substance
pound for pound in results obtained
in feeding milch cows, but when fed
to hsrses they do not seem to be quite
equal to the same weight of corn
and oats.
"It is estimated that corn meal at
$1.20 per hundred pounds, molasses
would be worth about $1 per hundred
pounds. Its quoted price in Boston
is 12 cents per gallon by the barrel
and 8 t? per gallon in 10 barrel lots.
"A gallon weighs about 12 pounds,
so that at present relative prices the
molasses would be a little cheaper
feed than corn meal.
"A good point with the molasses is
that it is agreeable to stock and makes
then always ready to eat such substances
as cut corn stubble, malt
sprouts, distillery feeds, etc., when
mixed with the molasses.
"A serious objection is that molasses
is not very convenient stuff to
handle and attracts flies in summer.
"As a mixture with high grade protein
foods, I suggest one-third distillery
grains, one-sixth cotton seed
meal, one-half molasses, or one-third
malt sprouts, one-third gluton-meal
and one-third molasses.
"For working horses, nine pounds ol
provender and mo quart of molasses,
or twelve pounds of provender and
three pints of molasses, or for hardworking
horses substitute one-halt
pound dry blood or one pound cotton
seed oil or linseed meal in place of an
equal quantity of provender.

Farm Notes
Don't try to save money by buying:
cheap seed.
Farm tests are worth more than all
the theories.
Deep plowing 1b necessary to get
the best results.
Don't sow alfalfa seed on very recently
plowed land.
There never were better opportunities
in vegetable garden than today.
Cabbage growing for kraut factories
is a peculiarly uncertain business.
Build a silo and save much of the
fodder that wduld otherwise go to
waste.
Watch your machinery for Ioobo
bolts and nuts, and don't forget the
oil can.
A half crop of corn can be turned
into live-sixths of a crop by saving
the fodder.
Two of the best acreage saving money-making
propositions up to the farmers
today are silage and alfalfa.
Don't plant the large varieties of cucumbers.

Although there is little data on the

ODOR OF CHEESE AIDS SLEUTH
Stolen Limburger In Possession of
an Alleged Burglar Leads to
His Arrest.
i
Dan hurt. Conn.- Stolen liniburger
cheese put the police on the scent of
a burglar the other day and as a result
Hans Herrmann, twenty-two, was
locked up at police headquarters
charged with having burglarized two
clothing stores and a delicatessen
store of money and articles worth
$:too.
After the burglaries were reported
to the police in the morning. Detective
Darker was assigned to the cases.
He found the muddy Imprint of a shoe
on a piece of white cloth under a
window through which the night,
prowler had entered one of the clothing
stores and he took measurements
of this. The detective, however, found
his best clue in the delicatessen stor*
where he learned the loot had ivic.luded
several pounds of llmburger
cheese. The sleuth was soon on the
trail of several persons known to
have a fondness for limburger cheese,
but failed to secure evidence to connect
an> of thorn with the burglaries
Late in the afternoon the detective
learned a man was eating some
odorous cheese In the railroad yards.
Darker hastened there and found
Herrmann enioving a luncheon of
llmburger cheese and crackers. The
youth insisted he bought tlie cheese,
hut he was arrested. When searched
a large chunk of lira burger cheese
was found in his pocket.
Herrmann, the police say, later admitted
he robbed flu* delicatessen
store, but denied he made the other
ntries.
