Plowing the land In the fall, -Where it is practicable—and it is. practicable Where the soil is not too meetly ar- Oded, or where the chop is not to be seened until the following spring—is of greater benefit than, plowing in the sprits.

It the season Is wet or late in the spiting it becomes neeeseary or at least desirable to do a great deal of work In a short timenand if acme of the ground is already plowed, teeding only a thorougb discing to.prepare It for•se-Wing, the farmer is that much ahead with his. work. Tins 'is not all that a aecomplished, taugh the contribution •tow,ard solv- ing the laboequestion is a big thing of itself, other be -Wits are obtained. The purpose of plowing and of other oper- ations in preparing tlie ground for seeding is to divide or break up the soil into as fine •particles as possible so that the tiny rootlets of the grow- ing plants have every possible op•por- tunity of mooring food. The son during the winter is sub- . leeted to frequent changea in tempera- ture, fgeezing _weather succeeding warm weather inveral times during the season. Water expands when It freezes, On warm days during the winter months the land becomes full of moisture or 'water from rain or melting snow; wilen- tble -water freezes it expands and separates the particles of soil. This happens Zany time. during the winter, -so that by spring the clods are broken many times. What Vas in the 'fan a hard mass.of earth is already crumbled to pieces and only a small amount of work is necessary to dispose of what" olotis remain. , FALL PLOWING DESTROYS IN- SECTS. e" The insects that have burrodved in the soil to pass the winter and lay their eggs for next season's crop of -pests are turntid to the surface by late plowing, where the ,y will be expend •to the severe freezing of winter. This will destroy many of them, and the few that do withstand the severe con- ditions of winter will be weakened as to be incapable of greatharm. One great reason for fan plowing being to perinit the alternate working of the elements to break up the lumps of soil, it follows that the soil which needs this breoking up most is thb oneortoat benefitted by fall plowing. -Usually heavy clays are the hardest to prepare for seeding, se if one has a clay soil, or 41 sod without 'which clods, It is a good plan to plow in fail. e As this soil will he exposed to the freezing and thawing when fall -plow- ed, it ban be plowed When somewhat wetter than eould be done in the spring. The winter freezes Will coun- teract to a eonsiderable extent the tendency et the soil to puddle or form olods and become hard. In thenspring the plowed ground will be in such a -condition that it will be easy to larh- pare a good seed bed. 'CM the other hand, when one has a light, sonny soil which in 'teen has little tendeecy to form clods, .1811 plowing does not do so much geed ets far as finditg ,the soil is eoneerned.

Woman's Use A Atilt to the laboratory sk.hsre this successful remedy is made impreatiee even the casual looker-on with the reli- ability, accuracy, skill and eleanliness which attends the making of this great medicine for woman's Ills. Over 250,000 pounds of various herbs are nod malty and all have to be gathered at the season of the year when their natural jukes and medicinel aub- stances are at their best. The most successful nolvents are used to extrect the medicinal propertiea from these herbe. Every -utensil and tank that ornesin contact with the medicine is ateriliZed and as a final precaution in cletinlitresi the medicine is pasteurized and carded In sterile bottles. It is the wonderful combinatiori of Teeth and herbs, together with the skill and care used in it' preparation Which has made this famous medicine so suceeisful in the treatment of female illo.

The reason tor tleis is that If a heavy growth is turned under in the spring, and the seaaon turtle out dry, eros may suffer severely becalm, there would. be this growth turned un- der not yet decayed between the plow- ed -soil and the subsoil, Good capillary action would not . be established be- tween the'soll and oubsoil, so that In dry weatlaer the lante -could not ltia: ize the molatune in the subsoileas well as ifethe ground were firmer. 'Natur- ally the longer the stilff has been turned undr before the crop is grow- ing the better it le rotted, better °eon- laryeection is established and crops do not suffer so severely from lack of raoisture.
