long suffered from a peculiar malady
of the stomach. He sought treatment
with but little relief. At times it
seemed as if he would have to give up
hope.
He took Mayr's Wonderful Stomach
Remedy and found immediate bene

"For years I have suffered from a
disease which puzzled doctors. They
termed it catarrh of the stomach, say
ing the only hope would be a change
of climate, and that in all probability
I would never get well. Then I heard
of your remedy. One trial bottle gave
me instant relief. It made me feel
like a new man. Your full course of
treatments has about cured me. Sev

MANAGEMENT OF SOW
Champion Poland China Sow.
(Prepared by tti United .States Depart
ment of Agrtculture.)
Nearly four million acres In the
United States,, it is estimated, have
been devastated! by soil erosion, and a
vastly larger-area has lost much of its
fertility. Nowhere is soil erosion
more serious than in tue South. The
climate, the character of the soil, the
economic conditions, and the type,
of agriculture, which has. hitherto pre
vailed, have all contributed to the
damage, yet with the exception of the
amount of rainfall every factor ia ero
sion can be controlled by mail.
Soil erosion is the carrying away of
the soil by the action of wind or wa
ter. In the South the action of water
is much the more important. If all
the water-that falls upon u given area
were to be- absorbed by the soil, it
would cause no erosion. This, how
ever, scarcely ever happens. Wsfere
the slope of the ground or the char
acter of the soil is such that the wa
ter runs off rapidly. It carries with it1
a very appreciable quantity of "soil
particles, the quantity increasing as
the speed of . the running water in
creases. Where this erosion is exces
sive the soil is left bare aud gullied.
The land is hard to cultivate and so
much organic matter is taken from it
that it is frequently abandoned as too
poor for profitable agriculture.
To check this process, terracing,
deep plowing and the use of cover
crops are advantageous. Vegetation
not only hinders the flow of water
over the surface, thus lessening the
amount of erosion, but the roots strik
ing through the soil loosen it and en
able it to absorb the water more read
ily. In the South the use of cover
crops for this purpose is particularly
important because so much of the
rainfall in this section is in the win
ter when the land is frequently bare
of crops. Winter rye is particularly
advantageous in holding the soil. The
value of deep plowing lies in the fact
that this loosens the soil for a consid
erable distance below the surface and
thus enables the water to be absorbed
quickly. Terracing obviously is de
signed to provide level areas for the
water to fall on Instead of steep hill
sides down which it can rush.
The importance of measures that
will check erosion is indicated by the
fact that In some southern states vast
areas amounting sometimes to 60 per
eent of the arable land in these sec
tions have been abandoned because
Feeding Oevlea to
the water has carried off much of the
best soil and impaired the value of
what has been left. On moderate
slopes in the Piedmont region of
North Carolina erosion has been esti
mated to cause a yearly loss in crop
values alone of three dollars an acre,
making the total loss in this region
over two million dollars each year.
On the other hand, there are many
hilly farms in which excessive ero
sion Is effectually prevented. Farm
ers who wish detailed Information of
the best methods of terracing and oth
er means of control, should write to
the United States department of agri
culture for Farmers' Bulletin No. 20,
Circular No. 94 of the Bureau of Plant
Industry or U. S. Department of Ag
riculture Bulletin No. 180.
When land has once been badly
eroded the task of reclaiming it Is apt
to be difficult and long. It can be
done, however, and at times may be
made very profitable. An Instance of
this Is a tract of 38 acres near John
sa City, Tenn., wheh was purchased
F ;i r years ago for $53 an acre. At
u lime the land was badly eroded
tere was one gully eight or ten
f . ?ep. This the new owner filled
ebris and soil, 200 loads of ma
n were applied, and the soil was
I to a depth of ten inches, plant
rye and the rye turned under,
leep plowing and the organic
in the rye left the soil in such.

condition that practically all the water
which fell on it was absorbed. As a
result the land increased in value so
that the owner declined $100 an acre
for it. The cost of reclamation was
approximately $10 an acre. It is sim
pler, however, to prevent excessive
erosion than to- reclaim land after It
has occurred.
Locations for Creameries.
In developing the dairy industry
throughout the South a very important
matter Is the selection of the loca
tions In which to erect creameries.
No one would build a sawmill where
there is little or no timber suitable
to be made into lumber, and it would
be equally unwise to start a creamery
where the supply of milk and cream
is insufficient for economical opera
tion of the plant. In many dairy re
gions creameries have been operated
successfully and have brought pros
perity to the community. On the oth
er hand, there are many closed cream
eries in the United States and many
farmers who have lost money by un
wise investments in them.
The first essential for the success
of a creamery is a sufficient supply of
milk and cream. An insufficient sup
ply means a lbss for all concerned.
The number of available cows in a
community' is frequently overestimat
ed. About six hundred southern cows
should provide raw material enough,
and if this is sent to the creamery
in the form of whole milk the cows
should all be within five miles of the
creamery. i
In order to keep expenses reasona
bly low, an average of at least 1,200
pounds of butter must be made each
week, which will require about one
thousand pounds of butter fat. The
smaller the output the greater the cost
per pound of butter, for some of the
expenses will remain approximately
the same whether the dally output Is
one hundred or two hundred pounds.
If a careful canvass reveals the fact
that,' excluding those required to -meet
the demands of home consumption,
the necessary cows -are available) the
information should be sent to either
the state agricultural college or the
Dairy Division, Department of Agri
culture, Washington, D. C, with a re
quest for plans and advice for the
organization, building and equipment
of a plant that will be likely to suc
ceed under existing local conditions.
Next to an insufficient svpply of
milk, one of the most frequent causes
Prevent Crowding.
of creamery failures Is the erection of
poorly planned and cheaply construct
ed creameries equipped with expensive
but more or less useless machinery.
Many creameries have been organized
by promoters who derived their profit
from the sale of the plant and its
equipment, not from its. successful op
eration after they, bad severed their
connection with it la consequence,
it was to their interest to unload as
expensive and as poor a plant upon,
the farmers as they could.
Cases are on record in which promo
ters have secured the signatures off,
farmers to documents which purport
ed to be nothing more than a general
expression ot opinion that a creamery
in that place would be a good thing.
Later it developed that the document
was an iron-clad agreement to take
stock in the company. Creameries or
ganized in such a way prove profitable
only to the organizers. Moreover the
iauure or. one or two such companies t)
serves to discourage dairying In that I '
region for many years thereafter.
Before it ia decided to build a cream
ery, therefore, its prospective share
holders should convince themselves
of three things: (1) That there will
be milk and cream enough for it to be
operated economically; (I) that the
marketing facilities are adequate! and
(3) that the plant to be built Is well
designed and equipped and the cost
reasonable.
