PAGE FOUR FEDERATION OF CLUBS IN MEET .• - (Continued from Page One) showed that in spite of the general de pression there had been no slackening iu tbe pace set in better times. The report of the local club as among the best made and of which wc are justly proud. Miss Fieda Hellar, organizer of the State Library Commission, made a very interesting talk, emphasizing the need of organizing libraries. Miss Ethel Parker, state chairman of the Good Citizenship Department, of Gatesville, was a special guest of the meeting and she stressed the value ot that department because good citizens arc to be desired above everything else. Mrs. C. J. Sawyer, state chair man of the Music Department, differ ed with Miss Parker when she said that music is just as essential as life itself. They both made short l>ut ap propriate talks on the work to he done during the coming year. The work as outlined by Mrs. Land | was endorsed by the district and Mrs. Ford Worthy, of Washington, was elected to the office of first vice presi- j dent of the district. The invitation, of Washington was j accepted and the meeting adjourned to j meet the coming year in that town.— Reported..

PEEL Ford Digs Two Mile Tunnel for A Billion Gallons of Water a Day NEARLY a billion gallons ot water a day—mora than la used by the cities of Detroit, Philadel phia, Cincinnati and Waahlngton com bined—will be tbe capacity of a huge tunnel now nearing completion at tbe Rouge Plant of tbe Ford Motor Com pany, Dearborn, Michigan. Tbe tunnel will replace tbe present water Intake ayatem which suppllea tbe Ford plants with 600,000,000 gal ions a day. At the same time the com pany ia remodeling it* power house to greatly increase tbe power output. Both Improvements, coating several million dollars, are being made to en large the production (acllitlea of tbe Ford plant • 4 Sixty Feet Under Ground In constructing the waterway, the largeat of its kind ever undertaken by a single bualness concern, the engi neers are burrowing aixty feet under ground for a distance of two and a fifth miles. They bare gone under main highways, railroads, atreet car tracks, bridges, a cemetery and a creek. One of tbe most difficult taaks was that of tunneling under Baby Creek at a point which la crossed by a railroad bridge and where also a large sewer is under construction bjf"tbe city of Detroit. The piles that provide tbe foundation for tbe bridge and those driven by the company constructing the sewer formed a network on each side of the creek. It was the task of the ford engineers to burrow under the creek, Bewer and bridge, going between the plies without striking or weakening them. Boring of the tunnel Is accomplished by means of a shield—a large steel rylluder fourteen feet long and twenty Lime and Soil Is Subject - At Raleigh Conference The need to use more lime on all soils where such liming is profitable was em I'hasi/ed at a conference of agronomists representing 15 states held at the Uni versity of Tennessee at Knoxville and attended by l B. Willjams and L. C. Willis, agronomy workers at State College. Reporting on this conference, Mr. Williams, as head of the department of agronomy State- College, said there" was a general agreement among the scientists present that the heavier types o! upland soils should he limed to lull neutrality for growing red clover, abul ia and sweet clover, with the precaution that the lime, should he added well in advance of planting and given time to react with the soil, Applications of the lime six months to a year before seeding have been found to give the best results. Tlie lime should be harrowed into the soil and not mixed to the full depth of plowing. Many dark bottom-land soils and sandy soils of the Coastal I 'lain will respond to light liming. There "is no direct increase in Un availability of soil potash, magnesia or phosphoric acid expected as a result of liming. Some loss of nitrogen may occur where a good crop rotation is not ft Mowed. Sometimes conmbiuations of super phosphate and lime will giv? better re suits-than lime used alonge. Moderate amounts of ground dolomitic limestone can be mixed with well-cured super phosphate without making the phos phoric acid unavailable to crops. The magnesia of dolomitic lime stone neutralizes soil acidity at least as well as does lime and has the ad ditional advantage of supplying mag nesia to soils deficient in this element of plant food. There will be no in jurious concentrations or magnesia in the soil where the dolomitic limestone is used properly, reports Mr. Williams.

Kaufman, Texas.—"Two years ago, I began suffering with spells of indigestion," says Mrs. Marshall Smith, of this place. "It seemed like everything I ate disagreed with ! me. I had gas on the stomach, and often my head would hurt so bad I had to lie down. "Everything would get black be fore my eyes, and I would be so dizzy when I would get upon my feet that I had to hold on to things, to walk around the room. "My food soured on my stomach, and I was constipated. "I had often read about Black- Draught, and my mother told me it was a good medicine to take, and so I began a course of It. "It was not long until I was feel ing better. I took a pinch after meals, and I soon found I was suf fering much less. It relieved con stipation, and I was not any longer troubled with indigestion. "We try to keep it In the house, and I use Black-Draught now, when ever I feel a sick headache coming on It is a fine medicine."
