NATURAL FOR THEM TO CRY
Adults, as a Rule, Pay Too Much At-
tentlon to the Bawling of the
Youngsters.
Thcro nro too ninny youngsters who
know that they cnu get nnythlng If they
cry long enough for it. Then there nro
children who cry over anything, wheth
er crying Is Justified or not. It Is qulto
natural for children to magnify every
disappointment and o make a huge
outcry over everything that displeases.
Parents should remember this nnd dis
count n large perccntugo of this bawl
ing. Most adults are too cnslly nn
noyed by a child's crying. They think
he ought to control himself, nud attack
too much Importance to his lack of
restraint In this regard.
Of course, It Is very probable that
there Is u physical cause for tho child's
crying, In thnt case, the cause 'should
bo found out as quickly as possible.
Tho chances are that a normal child,
say three yenrs old or over, with plenty
of muscular activities and games, who
is healthy looking, eats and sleeps well
and otherwlso good-natured, docs not
cry because of temper. Thero must bo

thcro is nothing 'like good old iron to

Is also a great nervo and stomach
strengthener and the best blood builder
in tho world. Tho only trouble was
that the old" forms of Inorganic iron,
like tincture of Iron, Iron acetate, etc.,
often ruined people's teeth, upset their
stomachs and were not assimilated,
and for these reasons they frequently
did more harm than good. But with
tho discovery of the newer forms of
organic iron all this has been overcome.
Nuxated Iron, for example, Is pleasant
to take, does not Injure tho teeth and Is
almost immediately beneficial.
NOTE The manufacturers of Nuxated
Iron have such unbounded confidence In
Its potency that they authorize the an
nouncement that they will forfeit $100.00

not take any man or woman under sixty
who lacks iron and increase their strength

provided they have no serious organic
trouble. Also they will refund your money

not at least double your strength in ten
days' time. It is dispensed by most drug
gists. If your druggist or general store
Is without a supply, ask them to get it for

CAULIFLOWER IN FAVOR
Vegetable Is Closely Related to
the Cabbage Tribe.
Very Rich Soil Required, and It Must
Do Qlvcn Most Particular Treat
mentMarket Demands Snowy
White Heads.
Cauliflower Is closely related to tho
cnbbago tribe, but much more refined
In its habits and more dlfllcult to cul
tivate. It requires a very rich soil nud
tho most particular treatment, nnd no
farmer or gardener would bo Justified
in attempting its cultivation on n largo
scale, or to depend upon It as u market
crop without first having thoroughly
studied Its peculiarities and .require
ments.
r Tho market desires snowy whlto
heads, so thnt protection is universally
practiced to accomplish this purpose.
Threo methods nro used: (1) tho
breaking of half a dozen or more
leaveB over tho top of tho cauliflower
head. The stems of the leaves nro
not severed entirely, so thnt tho leaves
remain green. (2) Breaking or bend
ing over the leaves as Just cxpfalnt-d,
nnd pinning with toothpicks or small
pins. This is u very satisfactory
method for ull sections. (S) Bringing
tho leaves together over tho hend nnd
tying. This Is nn excellent plan, but re
quires more tlmo than securing with
tho toothpicks. The protection should
begin when tho heads nro about un
inch nnd a half in diameter.
Cauliflower is considered n delicncy
on most tables, nnd it pays to exercise
special enro in tho marketing. Al
though, barrels nro often used, crates
or baskets nro better. A package
which will not hold more than a doz
en or nt most two dozen heads cer
tainly has un advantage over tho bar
rels. If tho heads are of good size, snowy
white, wrapped In fancy paper, nnd
marketed in new, clean packages they
cannot fall to attract attention, nnd
command good prices.
AUTUMN DEMAND FOR CELERY
Tendency to Rush Product to Market
Before It Is Well Blanched Loss
in Trimming.
Tho bracing fall weather will stimu
late .tho demand for celery. At this
season when It is selling readily at
good prices, thcro Is a tendency to
rush celery to market before it Is well
blanched. This is a mistake, because
It necessitates severe trimming at tho
market end, nnd tho product goes to
tho cheaper trade. To catch tho best
grade, celery must bo fully blanched,
clean nnd well trimmed.
"Handling" celery should bo finished
promptly nnd tho rows ridged ns fast
as possible. If tho soli is allowed to
get Into tho hearts of tho plants it
will cause rot. Celery intended for
storngo should not bo ridged. In somo
quarters thero Is a prejudice against
blanching celery with boards. It is
claimed that blanching with earth
makes It crlsper and gives It a better
flavor. Just tho same, much of tho
product grown in various parts of tho
country is blanched with boards, and
it sells for top prices, too.

Barnyurd manure is good for tho

but thcro nro times when its nppli
cation is harmful. Fresh manure,
when applied immediately beforo

VALUABLE AS GREEN FODDER
Opinion of Growers of Sudan Grass )
That It Will Largely Take Place
of Millet and Sorghum.
Most of the earlier accounts of Su
dan grass failed to make clear thnt
this new crop Is nothing moro or lest
than n fine-stemmed, nonsacchnrlna
sorghum. It has most of tho charac
teristics of tho ordinary sorghum, nnd
Its requirements as regnrds soil and
climate nro similar except thnt the Su
dan grass differs from sorghums by
maturing earlier and having such flna
stems thnt it is readily cured luto

Experiments nindo nt the Kentucky
statu bfatlon in 1015 produced n crop
of eight tons per aero of dry hay in
Sudan Grass In Texas.
two cuttings. This exceptionally high
yield was inado posslblo by unusually
fertile soil nnd good culture. The
plots wcro drilled about tho inlddlo of
May, using 20 to 25 pounds of seed to
tho acre, seeded with an ordinary
grain drill.
Tho first crop was cut when tho Su
dan grass was fully ljeadcd, and the
second crop in tlmo to avoid tho first
frost.
Where Sudan grass has been grown
for two or threo years It is tho opin
ion of the growers that it will largely
take the place of millet and sorghum
for fodder purposes, and also bo valu
able as a green fodder to cut for sup
plementing pasture.
SELECTION OF CHOICE SEED
Crops Don't "Run Out," Say Experts
at Ames Fanning and Grading
Are of Importance.
The old Idea Unit farm crops "run
out" may safely bo looked upon as u
humbug, say tho farm crops men at
tho Iowa experiment station at Ames;
that Is, If reasonablo care is given to
tho selection of good seed nnd propet
methods of soli culture each year.
Under carcloss management, of course,
crops will deteriorate tho same as an
imals or men.
If, duo to careless handling, farm
crops do run down or "run out," the
best thing to do is to run them out.
Dispose of the poor stuff and mako u
fresh start with 'good seed from the
farm of a thrifty neighbor. Then
keep tho seed good.
With tests of hundreds of varie
ties of different classes of crops at tht
experiment station at Ontario, Can
ada, Ames nnd other places, where
reasonablo attention was given to fan
ning and grading seed cacli year, cases
of "run out" aro practically unknown,
This has nlso been tho case on all well
managed farms, also.
With proper management nnd nor
mal conditions tho seed grown on the
farm should always bo tho best seed
for that farm.
