Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.
Judrins from reports from drueciiti
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
baa been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success,
An cxaminine physician for one of the
prominent Life Insuiance Companies, in
an interview on tne subject, made tne as
tonishlng statement, that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re.
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applies
tions arc declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. It is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper. Adv.

EUROPEAN BORER
IS DESTRUCTIVE
Estimated Loss of Million Dollars
Daily if Insect Once Gets
Established.
FOUND IN EASTERN STATES
Larva Is Dirty White Caterpillar,
About One Inch Long, With Brown
Head Ears of Corn Are
Bored Through.
A million dollars' worth of damage
a day Is conservatively estimated as
the effect of the Huropean corn borer
If It once gets established In the corn
belt of the United States. This Is the
statement of George A. Dean, head of
the entomology department In the Kan
sas Slate Agricultifrnl college.
The Insect, which has done tremen
dous damage In Hurope and Asln, has
been Introduced Into New York and
Massachusetts and Is looked for In
other regions.
Larva Is White Caterpillar.
The larva of the Kuropean corn
borer Js n dirty white caterpillar,
about an Inch long, with a brown
head. It passes the winter In a nearly
full-growp condition within Its food
plnnts. In the spring Its growth Is
completed and It then bores Its way to
the surface of the food plant, where it
mnkes a slight hole to serve as an
exit for the resulting moth.
The larva now forms n cocoon In the
burrow, pnsses Into the pupal stage,
and In nbout two weeks the adult moth
emerges. The moth, which lives about
two weeks, deposits 300 to 700 eggs on
the food plant. In about five days the
eggs hatch, and the young larvae at
first feed on thp tender shoots of tho
plnnts, but finally bore their way Into
the main stem of the plant. In about
six weeks, after burrowing through nil
parts of the plant, the lurvne pupate
as before and emerge as moths about
the middle of summer.
The female moths of Uie second
brood do the grentest damage to corn,
since they nttuck not only the stnlk,
but also the tassel and the ear, and
continue feeding until cold wenther.
Destroy Ears Completely.
The ears of corn are bored through
from bottom to top and from side to
side, the borers feeding on the kernels
while they are soft. Complete de-

structlon of the ear Is generally accom
plished either by the borer or through
decay which follows the Injury. One
moth which emerges In the spring may
he responsible for from 100.000 to
,1100.000 lnrvaa later In the same season.
Kvcry farmer and gardener should
be on the look-out for the Insect, Pro
fessor Dean urges, and upon discover
ing signs of Its presence should Im
mediately Inform his state entomolo
gist or experiment stntlon, sending In
the Insect or the plant on which It has
evidently worked.
INSULATE HIVES IN WINTER
Ample Protection Should Be Supplied
to Keep Out Cold Winds
Leave Entrance Open.
Protect hives from prevailing cold
winds, and Insulate hives to retain tho
heat generated by the bees. A grove
of trees, an adjacent hill, or nearby
fence may serve us a windbreak. Tho
packing usually done should complete
ly surround the hive, Including the
bottom, but the bees' entrance should
remain open, though reduced In size.
Cork chips, sawdust, fine shavings,
dry loaves, chaff, and similar material
should be used and packed tightly In
a box built about the hive, allowing
from six to eight Inches space for the
Insulation.
QUARTERS FOR YOUNG STOCK
Preferable to Have Calves Separated
From Main Part of Cow Barn
Mothers Not Disturbed,
Some dairymen fall to consider hous
ing the young stock when they build
their barns. It Is preferable to have
the young stock separated from' tin
main part of the cow barn because of
odors and because calves near their
mothers will cause the cows to become
restless. The quarters for the calves
should be connected with the dalr
liarn, and n location on the south or
east side of the barn Is desirable.
GRASSHOPPERS MAKE
FINE POULTRY FEED
Especially Relished by Turkeys
and Guinea Fowls.
Fowls Consume Millions of Destructive
Insects During Course of Yea'
With Minimum Amount of
Trouble to Farmers.
Grasshoppers are beginning to pay
big cash dividends In North Dakota
through the medium of poultry, espe
cially In turkeys and guinea fowls, The
experiment has been successfully tried
at the stnte agricultural college and
numerous fanners hnve taken the cue.
Fattened Turkeys Being Driven to
Market.
Wherever there nro green fields,
there are grasshoppers and other In
sects. G. R. Greaves of tho agricul
tural college, who has conducted Uio
experiments, says:
"It seems the Inexorable law of na
ture thut wherever there Is something
good to eat there Is something to cat
It, and man's existence Is a continual
struggle for supremacy over the crea
tures that are determined to consume
the food he requires."
During past years In North Dakota,
prairie chickens, sngc hens and grouse
held the grasshoppers In check, nnd
their plumpness and tho delicious
quality of their meat attested to the
superiority of their food.
Now tho prairie chickens especially
are going the way of the buffalo, and
Mr. Greaves was assigned to find a
substitute that would keep down the
Insect peqts with a minimum of trou
ble nnd expense to the farmer. Tho
answer Is turkeys and guineas.
Mr. Greaves declares that flocks of
turkeys and guineas consume millions
of grasshoppers and other Insect pests,
and naturally do their own foraging.
Early In the season the experimental
flocks at the agricultural college have
grown fat and strong on the young
Insects. 1
Later In the season they have re
ceived the abundant exercise necessary
for their proper market conditioning
by chasing the elusive hoppers, have
saved the field corps and provided n,
new, big source of Income.
"Three old turkeys kept through one
winter," said Mr. Greaves, "produced
a flock of young turkeys the following
senson which kept tho fields near their
house clear of grasshoppers, and ful
filled their destiny by gracing Thanks
giving tables."
BEST PRACTICE IN PLOWING
According to Minnesota Expert It Is
Best to Deepen Furrows Gradu
ally Each Year.
The nature of the soil and tho crop
to be grown should determine the ques
tion of whether to plow deeply or
morn shallow. As with most other fnrm
problems, the farm operator's Judg
ment and experience must be called
Into play In determining which prac
tice Is best on any fnrm.
Andrew Boss, vice director of the
Minnesota experiment station, believes
that deep furrows turned on edge, or
"three-quarters over," furnish the best
conditions for pulverizing nnd sweeten
ing the soli. "It is not good practice,"
lie says, "to deepen the plowing grent
ly In any one yenr. It Is better to deep
en It by one-half Inch or an Inch each
year until a sufficient depth has been
reached. Barely Is It necessary to plow
deeper than seven or eight Inches, ex
cept for certain deep-rooted crops like
sugar beets, carrots, potatoes and like
crops.
"Where It Is desirable to Incorporate
In the soli water-holding material, such
as a gree,n manure crop or a dressing
of coarse barnyard manure, deep plow
ing Is wise. Hither a very sandy or a
very heavy dense clay would be bene
fited by such treatment periodically."
FALLACIOUS IDEA OF SHEEP
Animals Will Consume More Weeds
and Shrubs Than Other Animals,
but Need Some Feed.
Many farmers who have failed with
sheep huvo gone Into the business with
the fallacious Idea that sheep will eat
anything, simply becnuso some misin
formed person started tho tale. Sheep
will consume more weeds and shrubs
than any other class of animals, but to
turn them Into the woodlot and expect
them to thrive on sprouts and dry
leaves Is nsklng too much of their di
gestive systems. However, thero Is
usually waste land on most farms on
which tho sheep may bo kept at certain
utrlods of the year very profitably.

SEASONS HAVE NOT CHANGED I SHOWING THE BUDDING MIND
Records Show That Weather and Cli
mate Are the Same Today as
They Wero Lontj Ago.
"Wenther and climate have not
changed from the time of the Pilgrims
down to the present day," are the
closing words of an artlclo by Prof.
Robert do C. Ward of Harvard uni
versity, on "Tho Snowfall of tho Uni
ted States," In tho Scientific Monthly.
That this Is so Is proved by a com
parison Of present-day conditions with
those so accurately recorded by tho
early settlers of New England, "Thero
aro accounts of gnyit cold ; of deep
snows; of violent wjnter storms.
Thero aro also many descriptions of
very mild and open winters. Thus,
we read of December and January re
sembling May and June; of (lowers
growing In the woods In midwinter;
of 'so little snowfall as ncarcely to give
opportunity for enjoying the music
of the sleigh hells;' of 'green Chrlst
inases;' of 'winter turned Into sum
mer;' of the 'ground bare for tho most
part; of little lee; of crocuses up, of
wild violets In bloom, and of lilac
'throwing out their loaves' In January."
The Fitting Place.
"What action did the club tako on
that resolution to have an annual din
ner?" "They laid It on the table."
Unwitting Humor In Conclusions
Drawn From Statements Made by
Teachers and Others.
A group of flfth-gratlo pupils had
been studying the uses of cottonseed
oil In geography and their teacher had
said that the cottonseed oil was used
as a substitute for linseed oil In
paints. In a written lesson one child
wrote: "Cottonseed oil Is used as a
substitute for lining In pants."
Tho pupils of the (bird grade In an
Indiana school were asked to wrlto
letters us a part of their language les
son. Ono little hoy wrote the follow
ing: "Dear Hobby I am Inviting you to
my house for Thanksgiving dinner.
Wo will piny games and out. We will
havp chicken and gravy and every
thing you can think of. If you can't
come, you can Invito me. I will como
rain or shine. It may be raining but
who cares? Lovingly, MUCH."
The Difficulty.
"What do you think of street pav
ing In tho abstract?"
"How can you take abstract views
of a concrete subject?"
Naturally. ,
"How do you pay for your apart
ment?" "Oh. at fiat rates."
