YOU NEEDN'T DESPAIR. Here's An Offer That Should In- terest Sufferers Of Skin Irritation. First of all we want 'to explain that the remedy we are about to tell you of carries our promise of money back for the mere asking to anyone not thoroughly pleased with its nse. That should unquestionably establish the sincere faith we have in it. Parasites or germs cause eczema, and eczema is probably the most pre- valent cause of all skin ailments. To. overcome' them, the remedy must of necessity destroy or remove the paras- ite or germ before relief can be obtain- ed. Possessing remarkable antiseptic, germicidal, cleansing, soothing and healing power, the curative value of Rexall Eczema. Ointment is very pro- nounced in the treatment of eczema and allied skin diseases, whether of the dry scaly sort. the weeping type, where there is a flow of ill smelling excretion, or the intermediary kind, such as pimples, blotches, discolora- tion, ringworm or acne. It is very u .taut for treating hives, nettle rash. it,sect bites and wounds. It is ideal for the skin ailments peculiar to children. Rexall Eczema Ointment is grayish white in color, has a pleasant odor, and is very cleanly for use. If you are a sufferer of skin irritations or erruptions in any form whatever, we urge you to try a box at our risk. At the mere hint of dissatisfaction you ms.y have your money back. Two sizes, 50a and $1. Remember, it is only sold at our store—The Rexall Store, J. W. McKibbon, WI. W. Zs \i+i► Tho natter under this head is supplied by' the Wingharn W.C. T. IT.

Miss Waddell took up the missionary camp work with several numbers of the union reading pass- ages, which was very interesting and instructive, showing the need of work among the camps. In some places, young men have formed an anti -treating club. The idea is that young men are enticed or driv- en to intemperance by the habit of treating. The members pledge them- selves never to pay for other men's liquor, The idea is old, and not bad. Still, experience shows that the best way to avoid the drink habit is not to drink. Treatingis a pernicious cus- tom, but it is considered to be due to generous impulses and good fellow- ship. But to stand at a drinking -bar and buy alcohol promiscuously for a row of acquaintances is not a sign of thrift or a true manifestation of friendship, Listen to John Mitchell, the great labor leader, He saye in part "Drink has driven many a strong man to poverty. I realize that nothing has done more to bring misery upon inno- cent women and children than the money spent in drink. No man has a right to spend one cent on himself un- til he has provided for his family all the comforts they deserve. He has no money to spend in drink without robbing his family.

Gaining Ground Rapidly, The traction plow saves time, money and horses. It is steadily gaining ground' on its merits, Rapidly it fn downing the prejudice that has led farmers unacquainted with its power to assume that It is impracticable in the average field. Its real worth IS asserting itself convincingly in actual Work, Where it has been given ade- quate opportunity to become a part of the regular farm equipment and to fall in line with the regular routine work of the season it has made itself indispensable, says the Breeder's Ga- zette. Men used to say that such au im- plement was a preposterous impossibil- Photo by American Press Association. ENGLISH STEAM PLOW. Sty in the small field. It would take half the field to turn around In. The work of trimming up its rough job of work would cost more than to do the whole thing with horses. Reasoning stubbornly in this vein, some farmers still argue to themselves that the four horse gang plow is too big for them to use. Holding close to their mind's eye the thought of the slow turning and the dog eared corners, the outside strip and the dead furrows to be fin- ished with the small plow, they blind themselves to the machine's accom- plishments. Perhaps an hour may be lost in dragging the single plow about In plowing out the corners, but what Is that compared with the days and days saved in covering the balk of the field? Good Land Going to Waste. Kansas farmers are wasting hun- dreds of thousands . of dollars' worth of good land, according to J. B. Koontz, general freight agent of the Santa Fe. Along the line of his road, Mr. Koontz says, there are 25,000 acres of land covered with useless straw stacks. Mr. Koontz figures that if the ground occupied by the straw was sown to wheat every year the yield on a fif- teen bushel average would be 375,000 bushels. At 90 cents a bushel the crop from the stock area alone would bring $337,500. Humus is a necessary element of fertile soil. The best way to put it into the soil is to follow. the sys- tem of crop rotation which shall in- clude lover or alfalfa. In addition to this all the stable manul'e should be put back on to the soil and a lib- eral supply of straw should be used in bedding, to save the liquid manure. AN EXPERIENCE WITH TAMWORTH HOGS, Dairy Doings. While bran can be used with a de- cided advantage in making up the ra- tions of the dairy cows, It should not be used to excess, as it will make the cream hard to churn, while the butter 'will be pale rather than a golden yel- low. The purchaser of a bull should select an animal that is a good individual and whose dam and grandam on his sire's side have good butter fat rec- ords. His sire must, of course, show the characteristics of the good dairy type. Many of the Maine farmers who gave up cows and went into potato' growing a few years ago aro coming back to cow keeping. A testing outfit does not cost much, and It pays dividends. A cow that is merely boarding will eat as much as one producing a profit, and the only way to distinguish between the two is through the use of the Babcock test and the scales. A farmer who has been traveling in Switzerland and Germany noticed that cows were used quite commonly for drawing loads Or plowing on the little farms of those countries, 110 found that the tows could be 'worked to a moderate extent without mach reduc- ing their milk yield, and ho suggests that the idea might be practical for small farmers in other conntrlee. The rule for feeding grain in the 'University of Wisconsin experiment station dairy herd is to give as many pounds of grain as the cow produces .eek pounds of butter fat per week. Vnderfeedln iN • AO :wasteful as oyer. loQdWi., Some time ago I read a request from a subscriber wanting to know some- thing about the American Tamworth swine, writes a Pennsylvania hog. raiser In the National Stockman. I will endeavor to write what I know of some of their merits, as I have been breeding theta for some time. I have bred and fed almost all kinds of hogs and quite often have met with [Photo by United States department of agriculture.] The Tamworths are the ideal ba- con type. The bodies are extremely long and moderately deep. The legs, the head and the neck are also long and coarse when compared with hogs of the lard type. They will attain a size almost equal to that of the Yorkshire. disappointments and failure with my brood sows, as many kinds develop so slowly. So after studyiug the merits of the Tamworths 1 cannot from my own experience praise them too highly. The mothers have shown more Intel- llgence in taking care of their litters than any one would think it was pos- sible for a sow to show. ' The pigs soon learn to take care of themselves and come to maturity at an early age. While it is true that they have long noses, at the same time their heads are smaller in proportion to their bodies than in any other breed, They are good foragers and yet are easily fenced. And, in regard to size, if you want them to reach S00 or 900 pounds they have the frame for it, —A new rural delivery route has re- Gently been started between Arthur and Mount View Post Offices. e .

Tankage For Hogs. Tankage is made from meat scraps, fat trimmings and scrap bones. It is steamed and the fat taken off and then dried for animal feed. It is a fine source of protein for the hog and does not carry disease. It should be fed dry or else wet just at the time it is fed. Feeding with corn about 10 per cent by weight will afford enough pro- tein to make the muscles grow, and there is considerable bone material in it. This will make much cheaper gains than will corn alone. As to worms, hogs properly fed and not confined to pens seldom are much infested with them. It is helpful to give access to all the wood ashes and charcoal they wish; even soft stone coal and coal cin- ders will be eaten and doubtless are helpful in some ways. Feeding heav- ily of pumpkins in the fall seems • to rid hogs of worms. Some raisers oc- casionally put a little coal tar dip in the slop fed and think this effective in keeping out worms.—Joseph E. Wing. Sheep Notes. The sheep must have clean, dry; con- genial quarters in which to spend the winter if they are to be healthy and profitable to their owner, says the Farm Journal. Feed regularly clover hay or alfalfa, all that will be eaten clean. Remove all stubs or hay that is left over and feed to the colts. Sheep will never touch, if nearly starving. what has been picked over and breathed upon. A sheep that is in good order at the beginning of winter will come out in the spring with its head up -and on all fours. A two-year-old at the head of your herd will be pretty sure to give you some fine lambs next spring. To have good sized sheep they must be grown rapidly 'while young, and It Is important to give them a good start. Dairying In WinteC. Winter dairying has many advan- tages. In the first place, all dairy prod- ucts sell at a high price in the winter. If cows coin° fresh in the fall they produce a good How of milk during the winter months, and in the spring when they are turned on grass this acts as a second freshening and thus lengthens the period of milk production. An- other distinct advantage is that during the winter season the farmer is not so busy with other work. consequently he can gire more time to the care of the cows, the milk and the creatn than 1s possible during the busy season.
