•*1 used to think my back would
surely break,” eays Mrs. H. S. Fix,
prominent lodge woman, 340 Caipen-
ter Street, Reading, Pa. “My back
pained me constantly. I was as help
less as a baby and a nurse had to stay
with me all the
time. The kid
ney secretions
burned and pass
ed as often as
every ten min
utes. Sometimes
my eyes were al
most closed by
the swollen sacs
beneath them
and my limbs,
too, swelled
twice their nor
mal size. For al-
nlbst a year I
was practically
helpless and r.ev-
er expected to get downstairs again,
had been told that nothing could be
done for me,, and had given up all
hope of ever getting better. My condi
tion was critical when I was told
about Doan’s Kidney Pills. I began
using them and the resulcs made me
hopeful of getting well again. The pain
in my back eased up and my swollen
limbs started to look more natural. 1
kept on using Doan’s and became en
tirely well. I owe my life to Doan's.”

Prayed for Cure
Finds it After 10 Years
P'ood Would Sour and Boil
—Teeth Like Chalk
Mr. Herbert JM. Gessner writes from his
home in Berlin, N. H.: ■
I had stomach trouble over ten years;
kept getting worse. I tried everything for
relief -but it -came back worse thau ever.
Last fall I got awfully bad; ceuld only eat
light loaf bread and tea. In January I got
BO bad that what I would eat would sour
and boil; my teeth would be like chalk.
I suffered terribly, I prayed eveiy day, for
something to cure me. One day I read
about EATONIC and told my wife to get
me a box at the drug store as I was going
to work at 4 p. m. I- took one-third of it
and began to feel relief; when it was
three-fourths gone, I felt fine and when it
was I had no pains. Wife got me
another but I have felt the pain but
twice. I UB^ firji tablets out of the new
box and I have no more stomaeh trouble.
Now I write to tell you how thankful f
am that I’heard of EATONIC. I feel like
a new man; I eat what I like, drink plenty
of water, and it never hurts me at aU.

Although there Is no remedy for the
Hessian fly when once It takes posses
sion of a crop of wheat, a great deal
can be done toward keeping the fly out
of the wheat.
Since the Hessian fly Is the most de
structive Insect enemy of wheat in the
United States, control measures pay.
There have been at least seven general
outbreaks east of the Mississippi river
In the past 37 years, and another Is re
garded as Imminent by specialists of
the bureau of entomology. The aver
age annual damage to wheat through
out the United States from this insect
is estimated at $50,000,000.
How to Stop Losses.
The means of prevenUng loss,. as
summarized by the department, are
these:
Practice crop rotation. Do not sow
wheat on stubble If It Is possible to
avoid doing so.
Plow under all infested stnbble,
where practicable, soon after harvest.
Plow ruined wheat as soon as possible
sifter It has been determined that the
crop will be a failure.
Destroy all volunteer wheat by har
rowing, disking, plowing, or some other
method.
Plow nil land to be sown to wheat
as early and deeply as existing condi
tions permit, and prepare a thoroughly
pulverized and compacted seed bed.
Conserve moisture against a period
of drought at seeding time.
Use good seed.
Fertilize.
Sow wheat during the fly-free period
as advised' by your farm adviser or
state experiment jtatfon.
Adhere to theSe pracGces every year
whether the fly Is abundant or scarce.
They will help to keep It scarce.
Community co-operation Is essential
If success Is to be attained, because one
Infested field may furnish enough lifes
to damage the wheat for several miles
around.
When to Sow Whnt.
Sowing wheat during the fly-free
period means moderately late sowing.
Experiments conducted over a great
many years have shown that, In most lo
calities, the safe date for sowing wheat
to escape Hessian fly Injury usually
coincides with the proper time for sow
ing in. order to obtain the largest
yields Independently of Hessian fl.v in
jury. These dates have' been deter
mined for certain localities as follows:
In northern Michigan, soon after the
1st of September.
In southern Michigan and northern
Ohio, about September 20.
In southern Ohio, after the first
week in October.
In extreme northern Illinois the safe
period usually occurs from September
21 to 28.
In central Illinois and Indiana, from
September 21 to 30.
In extreme southern Illinois, from
September 30 to October 5.
In central Kentucky, from October
6 to 15.
In central Tennessee, from October
15 to 25. '
in'Georgla and South Carolina, from
October 25 to November 25.
In northeastern Kansas the safe pe
riod Is from October 1 to 10.
• In east-central Kansas, usually from
October 1 to 20.
In extreme southern Kansas and
horthern Oklahoma wheat' should not
be sown until the second week In ^Oc
tober.
This Is true also of Virginia near sea
level.
October-sown wheat always enjoys
the greatest freedom from the fly In
Maryland, except In the mountainous
regions where earlier planting Is nec
essary.
In southeastern Pennsylvania the
safe period Is during the last week of
September, and practlcnH.v the same
corresponding delay In wheat sowing
In Ike fall should be followed to the
southward.
•These dates are only approximate,
anil serve to show In a general way
nboui the time when the fall brood of
the fly dl.sappeurs. AI! are depeudeut
When knocked m tne Fisld Rli« Looks
Somewhat Like Oats or Wheat at a
Distance, but the Method of Growing

^•ea and leave no uncultivated strips
In the field for the growth of weeds.
The harvested rice should be put
luto strongly built shocks that should
be well capped to protect toe grain
from the sun as well as from the rain.
Thrashing should not be done until ths
rice has remained In the shock for at
least two weeks
ROOSTER IS NOT NECESSARY
Male Bird In No Way Increases Pro-
duction of Eggs—Hens Lay More
Without Him.
So far as egg production Is con
cerned. It Is absolutely unnecessary
to keep a male bird In the flock. The
hens lay just as m'any eggs and fre
fluently more and you hnve the uddei)^
advantage of producing Infertile egg*
upon latitude, altitude, longitude, and
other local conditions. The date varies
considerably In broken or hilly country,
even on the same farm, being appre
ciably later on the southern slope of
a hill than on the northern slope of
the same bill at the same elevation. Be
cause of the fact that the larger part
of the fall brood appears and is gone
within a week or so, It is possible so
to time the seeding of winter wheat oa
to avoid the Hessian fly, and this la
one of the most practical and effective
measures th^t cah be applied.
A full discussion of the Hessian fly
and how to prevent losses from it la

copies of which may be had free by

SELECTING LAND FOR
PRODUCTION OF RICE
Soil Not Too Deficient in Organic
Matter Is Best.
Abundittit and Always Available Sup>
ply of Fresh Water Is of Much
. Importance—Provide Ample
Drainage Facilities.
(Prepared by the United States Depstrt*
ment of Agriculture.)
Rice produces its largest yields on
clay soils that are qot too deficient lo
organic matter. The land selected fot
rice culture should lie In level tracts
that can be cheaply drained.
The crop requires an abundant and
always available supply of fresh wa
ter, and to obtain good yields of high-
grade rice ample drainage facilities
must be provided.
The surface soil of the seed , bed
should be loose and finely pulverized
to a depth of at least two inches.
The field levees should be low, broad,
end permanent and constructed on con-
tour lines at distances which will hold
the water at an average depth of flv«
inches. Thej*aIso should be seeded to
rice. This will lncr;Pase the cultivated
autumn-fruiting raspberry
Ranere -and Erskine Originated in
» United States and Are Now in
Nursery Trade.
'■ ■ — •
Fresh '-home-grown raspberries all
summer long and until frost comes in
the fall! That is the delightful pros
pect which the United' States depart
ment of agriculture holds out to the
gardener who will plant one or more
of the autumn-fruiting varieties of
raspberry plants which it recommends.
The department points out that Eu
ropean gardeners have grown autumn-
fruiting varieties for many years, and
some of them are of higher quality. It
Is particularly important that the
American gardener secure varieties
that will stirvive in this country, since
In many sections our climate is too se
vere for the European varieties.
Two good autumn-fruiting varieties,
the Ranere (St. Regis) and Erskine
(Erskine Park) have originated in the
United States and are now in the
nursery trade. The Ranere was found
near Hammonton, N. J., and was
grown by the hundreds of acres on the
sandy soils of southern New Jersey be
fore be4ng Introduced into the trade.
It Is the principal commercial rasp
berry of New Jersey, and seems des
tined to become the leading sort along
the Atlantic coast states as far south
as southern Georgia. The variety may
be found fruiting freely througliout the
fall montlis in \tlanta, Ga., and even
farther south where other varieties do
not succeed.
In the cooler parts of the nortliern
states, the Ranere produces fruit of
too small size and too poor dessert
quality to be of great value. How
ever, the berries borne on the young
shoots in the autumn are larger in
size and better in quality than those
of early summer, and if pruned after
the English system, where all tlie old
canes are Cut out In late autumn or
early spring, it should be desirable in
many northern gardens.
The Erskine raspberry, which was
found a resident'of' Lee, Mass., in a
patch of the Marlboro, Itears larger
fruit than the Ranere. .The fruit is
also of better quality, and if it proves
as hardy and bears as well throughout
the northern states as it has under the
care of the one who discovered it. it
should be especially desirable. The
Erskine seems to be a hybrid between
the American and European red rasp
berries, and should be tried wherever
the Cuthbert and Marlboro succeeil.
Among the varieties of autumn-
fruitii^ raspberries grown In England
are ’^exanflra. Belle de Fontenay,
Hailsham, Merville de Rouge, Novem
ber Abundance, October Red, October
Yellow, Semper Fldells, Surprise d’Au-
tomne, and Yellow Four Seasons. Only
two of these sorts, the Belle de Fon
tenay and the Halisham, are in the
nursery trade In this country.
'Two other European fall-fruiting
sorts, which may perhaps be found in
England, are In the nursery trade in
this country, the La France and the

Ibve Tpn ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that sre ez-
tensivftly advertis^, all at once drop ont
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain—the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly* to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that Km real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist axye “Take for
example Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in j
almost every case it shows excellent re- t
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale.”
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of Dr.
Kilmer’s Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri
nary troubles 'and neutralizes {he uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address
Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.,

Souvenir de Desire Bruneau. The La
France has been grown In gardens in
Connecticut for many years without
a name.
The experience of American fruit
growers of the eastern United States
for the last hundred years has been
that no variety of raspberry intro
duced from Europe succeeds In east
ern United States as a commercial
sort. Introductions of European vari
eties have been made repeatedly, but
none of them have yet succeeded under
the rigorous eastern climate. Those
who try these autumn-fruiting Euro
pean varieties, therefore, should not ex
pect them to be of value, except in
the home garden. There, however,
some of toe hardier of these varieties
inaj^ prove desirable. By removing
moist of the old canes and cutting
those that remain to within one or
two feet of the ground In late.autuma
or early spring a considerable quantity
of flne-quallty raspberries may be se
cured. The berries borne on the canes
which are. cut back will come after the
season of the common sorts, and should
last until the new shoots begin to
bear.
European varieties are more likely
to succeed In the mild humid sections
of Oregon and Washington where the
climate more nearly resembles that of
parts of Eurtipe thna'iloe.s that of the
I’B.sterii states. Those Interested In
this group of rasjjberrles prolmbly wlU
want to try the Euroneon sort.

The Itching and Sting

Seems Like tl^ SIdn Is on Fire.
There is a harassing discomfort
caused by Eczema that becomes
a torture. The itching is almost
unbearable, and the skin seems
on fire with the burning irri
tation. A cure from local applica
tions of salves and ointments is im
possible, because such treatment
can only allay the pain temporar
ily. The disease can only be
reached by going deep down to its
source.
The source of Eczema is in tha
blood, the disease being caused by
an infection which breaks oat
through the skin. That is why the
most satisfactory treatment for all
so-called skin diseases is S. S. S.,
