How to Prepare I .and ami Plant Two Cr?ps Together. T.? plant these two crops together. Is what I h iv. long advocated. And I will now try to give for the benefit of all loncerned some views which may be beneficial in the planting and treatment of these cropa First. It is absolutely necessary to prepare a good seed bed, just as y?>u -would In your garden for vegetal les. Burn cat straw and vetch vines and make an analysis of the ash and you will find that potash Is the chief in? gredient, therefore if the land to be planted Is deficient In potash we must supply it. If the land contains sufficient potash we must then find some way to liberate the natural sup? ply so as to make it available for the growing crop.

Col. O'Leaty let drop an inkling of just what rigid military law and the forced operation of the cars would mean, and the strike uas settled. A hurried meeting of the union was called aft. r in o'clock?while the me? diators were in the act of preparing thei r (i fixing the blame for fail? ure to reach adjustment?and the in? formation was allowed to leak out that the nu n were going to agree. Half an ln.ur later a report was sent to the mediators from the union agreeing that the concessions Secured for them from the company were ac? cepted; that they would agree to re? turn to work Saturday morning, the company in the mean time to submit ( list of charges against the 20 odd men to the mediators for Inspection, to decide if the cases were subject to arbitration. The mediators are to act in a capacity similar to grand jurors. In such cases as they find "no bill" the company is compelled to put the nun back to work; the true bill cases to go to trial by arbitrators, whose decision is final and binding on both sides.

"I had been troubled, a little, for nearly 7 years," writes Mrs. L Placier, in a letter from Peavy, Ala., "but I was not taken down, until March, when I went to bed and had to have a doctor. He did al! he could for me, but I got no better. I hurt all over, and i could not rest At last, I tried Cardui, and soon I began to improve. Now I am in very good health, and able to do all my housework." Cardui WomarfsTonic You may wonder why Cardui is so successful, after other remedies have failed. The answer is that Cardui is successful, because it is composed of scientific ingredients, that act curatively on the womanly system. It is a medicine for women, and for women only. It builds, strengthens* and restores weak and ailing women, to health and happiness. If you suffer like Mrs. Fincher did, take Cardui It will surely do for you, what it did for her. At all druggists.
