One of these may be madr- with a lining oi rubber cloth, made separately, so that the outer cover of tan linen can be re- moved for washing. The outer cover is made- like an envelope and n trifle larger than the inside rubber cloth envelope. The linei\.can be scalloped around the flap and embroidered or cross-stitched by way of ornament or ing fastered over with metal clasp at either end. The rubber cloth enve lope inside can be fastened over with one clasp in the centre only so thai the clasps on the inner and outer en- velopes will not bf: one on top of the other to make them diiticuit to close.

You ask how can l do lt? Well,

here you are; this is the way other readers oflthe Maritime Farmers handle the proposition, and vlly not vou. Now is the time to do it before you sow your grain.

The best known and most widely

used' substance for treating seed grain is ormaldehyde. This can be bought n drug stores at a moderate price. ne pint is put into forty gal- lons of water, and the seed grain is then dipped ln the mixture in such a way as to wet tile outside of every kernel. Or the formaldehyde solu- tion may be sprayed onto the grain, while shovelled over frequently and then covered with old sacks.

A few precautions should always

be observed. _'

(1) Formaldehyde varies in streng-

th and, if there is doubt ss. to its qua- lity, a sample of it should be sent to the chemist of the Experimental Farm, in order to determine its exact strength. _

(2) The sacks in which the grain

is treated should' first be cleansed by boiling in water, or by washing in a strong solution of formaldehyde. '

CUTTING FENCE POSTS.

lt is not necessary to cut fence

posts in the dark of the moon or on the second Thursday in August, ac- cording to Charles A. Scott. Kan- sas State Forester. A darkened moon or a precise Tuesday may not always bring the best results if that is the only method followed to obtain properly seasoned posts. `

Rheufnatism in the Blood

IT CAN ONLY BE CURED BY THOR- OUGHLY ENRICHING THE

Not so long ago rheumatism was

looked upon as a pain in the muscles or joints brought on by exposure to dampness or bad weather._ Now doc- tors kuow that it is rooted in the- blood, and while exposure may start the pain, nothing but the renewal of the poisonous acid from the blood will cure the trouble. lt is a waste of both time and money to try to cure rheumatism with liniaments, poultic- es or anything that only goes skin deep. Rubbing lotions into the skin may give temporary relief, but it ac-` tually helps to circulate the poison- ous acid _more freely and thus in the end increases the trouble, and per- haps leaves the sufferer permanently crippled.

od by the practices of large industri- al ooncerns which use great quantiti- es of such kind of wood," says Mr, Scott. "Railroads, in buying large qusintities of ties, specify in the con. trscts.the.t the trees shall be cut bg. tween November 1 and March 1. “Cuttins fence posts in tllsse months is seasonable work. More im- i1°l‘¢l1l¥. 111151! the eeascuable time of the year for cuttin.; fence posts. The wood will _dry more slowly than it will at any other time of the year and this will allow the post to dry in a natural way.

Pfilil 8Il0I.I|d Dry Slowly,

“When a post dries properly, the

drying is slow enough to allow the moisture to escape through the ends, if a tres for fence posts or any other purpose is cut out of season and dries too rapidly. the result is season checking or cracking.

The reason is that in addition to

drying out through the ends, the outer surface of the post also loses’ mois- ture, but in much larger quantities and more rapidly- than in the case with the,-interior wood. With the drying it must shrink and the result can only be large cracks in the tis- sue, reaching sometimes to the heart of the stick, and rendering the pro- duct elmoet worthless.”

Fence posts made from heavy bark

trees should be peeled before they are` set, according to the state forester. The bark fits loosely and allows mois- ture to collect beneath it. This is a favorable condition for the develop- ment of fungus which will soon rot the post.

Don’t Peel Bark Off.

It is not necessary to peel the bark

from catalpa -ar hedge posts. lt shrinks and sets .vi-ith the post as it dries, and is not objectionable.

Experiments in post preservative

treatment have been carried on by several of the state experiment sta- tions as well as the forest service of the United States Department of Agri culture. It will take years to deter- mine the full value of such treatment. but even now the condition of the treated posts warrants the statement that the presetative treatment is en- tirely practical. Good results will be obtained in the treatment of lite posts of native woods which are or- dinarily short-lived and unsatisfac- tory.

“The ash and' the elm that grows

along the borders of Kansas streams make posts, when treated, that will last longer than the white cedar posts that are sold at the lumber yards," comments Mr. Scott.

“Bevellngthe tops of posts aids lu

increasing the durability of the wood by preventing the excessive absorp- tion of water. Large softwood posts with flat tops will absorb much mqls- ture. and often it is here that the first evidence of decay is founil.-- Kansas lndustrialist.

The common Scab of the potato is

unsightly and while it does not cause the damage that is attributed to the Powdery Scab it depreciates the sell- ing value of your potatoes. No one wishes to buy scabby potatoes. if you do not/grow scabby potatoes you will have no scabby potatoes for sale. The scab of potatoes ls a fungus growth which shows itself in airough and cankerous appearance on the surface of' the others. A great a- mount of work has been expended on this disease and still _llc preventiv- is known if the land is inoculated with the trouble.

Of a large number of methods used

for treating the seed potatoes, soak- ing them in a solution of formalin, one pound to thirty gallons of water for two hours, is the most effective Soak the potatoes before cutting them and if they 'are not planted at once spread thinly to dry. This treatment will kill the disease on the seed. but scab can live in the soil for many years without a known host. Lime wood ashes and barnyard manure aid the growth of scab, while sulphat of amonla, fnurlate- of potash, acid phos- phate and dissolved lime render the soil less favorable to the disease. lf you have never treated your seed po- tatoes for ecab do so this year and watch results. You will be delighted with the smoothness of the tubers. If you have used the treatment once we know you will do so again.

THE VACANT LOT GARDEN.

_ For the intending vacant lot garden- er this is s good' time to seo about se- curing an allotment and' making plans for the arrangement of his crops.. If is still too early to do much on the 'land except to remove surface ob-‘ structions. but as soon as the frost is out digging can be commenced. and this practice will give better returns in crop than will the plowing that most vacant lots got. The first ques- tion tha-t will arise is what to d'o with the turf, or the grass and weeds. Should the surface be anything like decent turf, ‘fit could be neatly peeled 'off and stacked: By the end' of the year it will have become a most beau- tiful form of mould. With rough vege- tation, the weeds and grass that many cut down and this waste placed in a heap. We do not suppose that many people will care 'to attempt that method of double dllllll. Which 111- voives taking out the first and second spits of earth. but. if so, the refuse should certainly be laid upon the third spit. Buried so deeply. both insect gud- iungcid' pests, and seeds, will be suifocsted, and the nitrogen of the re-

fuse is retained. ln the bonfire the n trogen is lost. With slmxie digging and with the method of ouble dig- ging that means only inverting the second' spit in the openillgs, rough ve station must be burn , and the neges `(a rich potasb manure) em-

MAKING

CUTTINGS.

When an easy-rooting cutting is

placed in earth, the descernt of its sap, being arrested at the cut forms a callous or ring round the surface of the cnt which _soon swells and shoots down into the soil in the form of roots, forming, as growth proceeds, the new plant or tree. The bright sunshine oi’ March, together with the longer days, is starting home and greenhouse plants into more active growth, and the new wood' that is starting is well suited to the making of cuttings. To find out if the new growth is ilt for making cuttings, bend the shoot, and inf it breaks off, leaving merely a shred of bark connecting the two pieces, then the condition is right. If the

To Cure Catarrhal

Deafness and

Head Noises

Persons suffe ng from catarrahal

deafness and he d noises will be glad to know that his distressing afflic- tion can be successfully treated at home by an internal remedy that in many instance has' effected a complete cure after all diss has failed. Sufferers who could scarcely hear a watch tick have had their hearing restored' to such an extent that the tick of a watch was plainly audible seven or eight inches sway from either ear.

Therefore, if you know someone

who is troubled with head noises. or catafrh, or catarrbnl deafness. cut out this formula and hand to them, and you will have been the means of sav- ing some poor sufferer perhaps from total deafness. The prescription can be prepared at home, and is made as follows: -

Securefrofn your druggist 1 oz. Par-

mint (Double Strength), about 75c worth. Take this home, and add to it

uated sugar; stir until dissolved. Take one tablespoonful four times a

The hrst dose should begin to re-

lieve the distressing head noises, head- ache, dullness-, cloudy thinking, etc, while the hearing rapidly returns at the system is invjgoratod by the tonic action' of the treatment. Loss of smell and mucus dropping in the back of the throat. are other symptoms that show the presence of cstarrhai poison. and' which are often entirely overcome by this edicacious treatment. Nearly ninety per cent. of all ear troubles are said to be directly caused by cstarrh. therefore. there must be many people whose hearing can be restored by this simple some treatment.
