Barnwell County, South Carolina, is after the lirst prize in the canning club division of the Corn Show and Canning Club Kxposition to he held endpf the auspices of The Augusta Chronicle next fall in connection with the Geor- gia-Carolina Fair. The girls are de termined to win and they will be strong rivals for others who are con- tendinglfor the big prizes, but there are enough to go around and some to spare, says the Augusta Chrorpcle. Mrs. Dora Dee Walker of Appleton is demonstrator in charge of the work in Barnwell County and she writes that she already has ninety members in her club and will surely go to one hundred. They have been supplied with premi um lists of the corn show and canning club exhibition and they have started out along the right lines. The elegant prizes offered in this work will prove an incentive to many girls to do-this kind of work and In addition to the prizes they will make good money in their own work. The movement is one that is sure to pro duce results of the lasting and bene ficial kind and it is attracting atten tion throughout the country. It has been demonstrated beyond doubt that this territory can grow goods for canning as successfully and profitably as any other section of the country and the Barnwell girls will un doubtedly make an exceptionally cred itable showing in the splendid exhibit which they propose to put on at The Chronicle’s Canning Club Exposition.

It will be necessary to inoculate the clover and vetch unless land has suc cessfully grown these crops before. Vetch, crimson clover and burr clover all have different inoculation bacteria; hence, it will be necessary in inoculating vetch, to secure 400 or 500 lbs. of soil from a vetch patch or from soil where English or Canada Field Peas have grown vigorously. For inoculating Crimson Clover, use 400 to 500 lbs. of soil from land which has successfully grown crimson clover, red clover or little white clover. For inoculating Burr Clover, 400 to 500 lbs. of soil from burr clover soil, should be used. Inoculation soil must be harrowed or otherwise incorporated in the soil im mediately after sowing It; else the sun light will destroy the bacteria and ren der it useless. Artifical bacteria in Liquid form, if properly and carefully handled and seed immediately covered, will also give good results. Rules When Contesting for Prizes.

HUSBAND RESCUED DESPAIRING WIFE After Poor Years of Discouraging Conditions, Mrs. Bollock Gave Up in Despair. Husband Came to Rescue. Catron, Ky.—In an interesting letter from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock writes as follows: “Ibuffered for four years, with womanly troubles, and during this time, 1 could only sit up for a little while, and could not walk anywhere at all. At times, 1 would have severe pains in my left side. The doctor was called in, and his treat ment relieved me for a while, but I was soon confined to my bed again. After that, nothing seemed to do me any good. 1 had gotten so weak I could not stan and I gave up in despair. At last, my husband got me a bottle Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I cor menced taking it. From the very fii dose, I could tell it was helping me. can now walk two miles without i tiring me, and am doing all my work.” If you are all run down from woman troubles, don’t give up in despair. T Cardui, the woman’s tonic. It has help* more than a million women, in its 1 years of continuous success, and shou surely help you, too. Your druggist h sold Cardui for years.
