his Face Was Covered
With Pim:As.
— t
Pimplesare not serious trouble, but
they are very unsightly.
Pimples arc caused wholly by hod
blood, and to get rid of them it neces-
sary to purify the blood of all its im-
purities. -
ilurdocl2 Blood Bitters has made many
remarkable cures; the pimples have•. all
disappeared, and a bright, clean, earn-
plexion left behind.
Mr. Lennox D. Cooke, Indian Path,
N.S., writes: "I am writing you a few
lines to tell you what Burdock Blood
Bitters has done for me. Last winter my
face was covered with pimples. I tried
different kinds of medicine, and all
seemed to fail. I was one day to a
friend's house, and there they advised me
to use B.B.B., so'! purchased two bottles,
and before T had them taken I found I
was getting better. I got two snore,
and when they were finished I was
completely' cured. I find it is a great
blood purifier, and I recommend it to all."
Burdock Blood Bitters has been on the
market for the past forty years, and is
manufactured only by The T. Milburn
Co., Limited, Toronto, Ont.

When treatment is completed the
seed should be spread out to dry and
raked occasionally to hasten the pro-
cess. It will then be ready to sow at
any convenient time.
'It is important, first, that the
treated seed should be handled in
sacks which have not been used for
wheat or rye or have been soaked
two horn's in the above formaldehyde
solution and, secondly, that the seed-
er, if previously so used, should lie
washed out with formaldehyde solu-
tion before using in order to prevent
any chance of the smut getting on the
seed.
Pall Planting of Trees.
The chief advantages of fall plant-
ing are that a better selection of
trees can be secured in the nursery
than if made in the spring; the stock
can be kept out of the ground a
shorter time (most nursery stock Is
dug in the fall and stored in cellars
over winter); there is no danger of
drying of the stock, due to storage in
nursery cellars; the planting can be
done at a time when work is not as
pressing as in the spring and the
aces eau get a 000e root nota perure
winter sets in, and thus be in splen-
did condition to commence growth
perhaps several weeks before spring
transplanted trees could become es-
tablished.
The principal caution with respect
to fall set trees is to insist that the
nursery stock be allowed to ripen
fully. This it cannot do, as the prac-
tice of "stripping" or removal of the
leaves before maturity is done. It is
also highly desirable to protect all
newly set trees against rabbits and
mice. The best plan is to use gal-
vanized hardware cloths of one-half
inch mesh to cover the trunks from
an inch or two below the surface of
the soil up to a height of eighteen
Inches to two feet.. These guards
Should be four or five inches in
diameter when set, so they may be
left in place for several years and
thus continue the protection until the
bark becomes too rough and tough
to attract rabbits and mice.
• Scotcnmen Tallest.
Seotchmen are the tallest of the
autives of Great Britain. The Irish
are next, then the English, and the
Welshmen are the shortest.
