Backache In spite of the best care one takes of oneself, any part of the human machine is liable to become out of order. The most important organs are the stomach, heart and kidneys. The kidneys are the scavengers and they work day and night in separating the poisons from the blood. Their signals of distress are easily recognized and in clude such symptoms as backache, de pressions, drowsiness, irritability, head aches, dizziness, rheumatic twinges, dropsy, gout. "The verv best way to restore the kidneys to their normal state of health," says Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N.

Sore .corns, hard corns, soft corns or any kind of a corn, can harmlessly be lifted right out with the fingers if you apply upon the corn a few drops of freezone, says a Cincinnati authority. For little cost one can get a small bottle of freezone at any drug store, which will positively rid one's feet of every corn or callus without pain. This simple drug dries the moment It is applied and does not even irri tate the surrounding skin while ap plying it or afterwards. This announcement will interest many of our readers.

The dasheen, a root crop introduced into this country from Trinidad within recent years by the United States de partment of agriculture, is now grown by a considerable number of farmers and truckers in the South, and prom ises to become a valuable member of the group of domestic vegetables such as the potato which furnish starchy foods. The new vegetable is closely related to the taro, which is an impor tant factor in the food supply in por tions of the tropics. The dasheen is it self primarily a tropical plant. It can be grown successfully, however, not only in the warmer portions of Florida, but in other sections of the South as far north as South Carolina. The edible portion of the plant Includes a large central corm and a number of tubers, of much smaller size, attached to and around the corm. 1 . The value of the dasheen, It is be lieved, will be as a crop supplemental to rather than a substitute for the po tato. The fact that the dasheen ma tures in the fall when potatoes must be obtained from Northern producing sec tions should make the new plant es pecially valuable in the economics of the Southern farmer. In food value the dasheen Is com parable to the potato, though it con tains a smaller proportion of water and a greater proportion of protein, starch and sugar than the latter. The new vegetable may be prepared for the PARASITES IN SWINE Mixture Recommended by Expert at Oklahoma College. Many Breeders Use Straight Arsenic, Form Known as Arsenous Acid Be ing Most Commonly Employed Turpentine Is Good. (By W. P. SHUL.ER, Department of veterinary ivieaicine, umanoraa j. u.u Treatment of hogs for the kidney worm is usually of little or no avail According to different reports, seven out of ten hogs slaughtered will be in fested either in the region of the kid neys, lungs, the intestinal tract or cir culatory system. For intestinal para sites a mixture like the following will give good results : Powdered nux vomica 1 part, pow dered calcium sulpho-carbolate 1 part, powdered black antimony one-half part, nnwdpred charcoal 2 parts, common salt 2 parts, gentian 1 part, oil meal 2 parts. Many cases of infestation by para sites is charged up to hog cholera. Too mtlp Attention is paid to parasitic I troubles. As to the arsenic treatment for kidney worms, there is much dis pute about its efficiency. Many breed ers use the straight arsenic, the form known as arsenous acid being most commonly employed. It Is given in 10 to 20-grain doses. A teaspoonful of arsenic would be a sufficient dose for .a half dozen average-sized hogs. Care should be exercised in its use, and it ought to be stirred into slop, or If mixed with mashes care should be taken that the mixture Is quite com plete. This treatment is continued for eight or ten days at a time. Some seem to think that where arsenic Is beneficial, the parasites are not lo cated In and around the kidneys, but rather on account of the purging and vomiting produced by large-sized doses of arsenic, the parasites are located In the stomach and intestines, or the bile ducts'of the liver. Excessive purging and vomiting would have a tendency to eliminate them. Turpentine is also thought to have a beneficial action. A teaspoonful of oil of turpentine for each hog twice or three times daily for a period of eight or ten days should be given. The best method, however, of handling conditions of this sort is to keep the animals away from infected feed and pens. If they feed on acorns, keep plenty of copperas and charcoal, especially charcoal, convenient for them to eat. The formula for para sites in general has given very good re suits. PLAN FOR SOUTHERN STATES Farmers Urged to Follow Safe Agricul tural Program Raise Live Stock and Food Crops. In view of the high prices of food stuffs, farmers in the Southern states are being urged to follow what is termed a safe agricultural program, comprising the raising of live stock and the growing of food crops as well as cotton. i i in Field Near Brooksvllle, Fla. table as potatoes usually are, or may be made into flour and used in baking. The tender shoots forced from the large corms may be prepared like as paragus, and make a pleasing dish in that form. Culture and Handling of Dasheens. The dasheen is grown from whole tubers weighing a few ounces. They require a frostless season of at least seven months with plenty of moisture. A moist but well-drained, rich, sandy loam has been found to be a satisfac tory soil for dasheen culture. A largo proportion of either clay or muck in th soil produces strong-flavored, tough corms which are often unfit for table use. Large crops are produced under such conditions, however, and make ex cellent stock feed. The crop is planted in February in southern Florida and as late as the early part of April in South Carolina. The plants are spaced about 3 by 3 feet. Dasheens may be dug for home use by the middle of September and the main crop can be harvested at any time after the last of October. The clumps of tubers are left on the sur face of the ground fo." several days to dry. The tops and small roots are then broken off and the dasheens placed in storage. The dasheen Is a good shipper and is handled by the carriers at the same freight rates as potatoes. The vege table has already found Its way into a number of northern markets. ROTATE TO ERADICATE PESTS Most Available and Economical Plan In Control of Intestinal Worms and Fever Tick. (By G. M. BENTIjEY. Associate Ento mologist, Tennessee Agricultural Ex periment Station.) In sections affected with contagious diseases of live stock pasture rotation Is essential. In the control of stomach and Intestinal worms in sheep, hogs and cattle, intelligent rotation covering definite periods, based upon longevity and life history of the pests, is now recognized as the most available and economical plan. The fever cattle tick may be perma nently eradicated by positive rotation. It has been found that if cattle and horses tire removed from a pasture during the summer months It becomes free from ticks. During the winter If Infested cattle are run upon a cornfield or other cultivated field upon which no animals have been durinz the summer all the ticks will drop off, after which the animals may be placed upon the pasture that was freed of ticks dur ing the previous summer.' The Ten nessee, experiment station has pre pared a bulletin upon the eradication of the tick by pasture rotation meth ods, which may be had on application. PROPER RATION FOR SHOTES Mixture of Corn, Wheat Shorts and Tankage Is Recommended by Ex pert of Oklahoma Station. (W. L. FOWLER, Oklahoma Station.) An excellent ration for young shotes is one consisting of a mixture of corn, wheat shorts and tankage. The first two months feed those grains In the following proportions by weight: Corn, fouf parts; shorts, two parts; tankage, one part. The second two months feed the following proportions : Corn, six parts; shorts, two parts; tankage, one part. During the last two months feed the following pro portions: Corn, nine parts; shorts, two parts ; tankage, one part. I would mix this together and mois ten with water. This will be a well- balanced ration and the pigs should be fed twice a day just as much of this mixture as they will clean up well. The younger the pigs the more rich feed or protein substances they need. During the last few weeks of the fat tening period they will do better and put more fat on with a greater propor tion of corn in the ration. If you have no corn you can substitute kafir or fe terita. It would be well, of course, to grind all the grain. 4,4,'i"l,l"t'4"H,4"ir'4"i-f' i .

IF YOU have a constant, dull ache, or sharp pains whenever you bend or twist your back, and the kidney secretions seem disordered, too, don't waste time plastering or rubbing the bad back.
