Soon you will rind that irritations, pimples, i blackheads, eczema, blotches, ringworm and similar skin troubles will disappear. A little zemo, the penetrating, satisfying liquid, is all that is needed, for it banishes most skin eruptions and makes the skin soft, smooth and healthy. The £. W. Rose Co., Cleveland, O.

WHY SEND WHEAT? i Is Answered in Bulletin I y the Food Administration. ( Lit HTENS BURDEN 1 Os French Woman in Baking—She Works Sixteen Hours a Day. Washington, March 20 —"We receive many letters at Washington as to why we want to send so much wheat to Europe when wa are told that core, catm -al. ric®. and rye are ju .t I ,i; gejil." raid Dr Alonzo Taylor, who represented the United States food ad I ministration at the recent interallied war conference in Paris. They ask. “Why don't we keep the wheat and send them the corn and rye and barley nd rite.” I will answer that: We want to send wheat to Europe because you can make bread of wheat and you can’t make bread out of ri-'e and cats and corn. Wheat flour is the only known foundation for the bakery loaf which will stand handling, and nobody bakes domestic bread in Euiope. Yon can go to any town in Frame and you will find that there are ;no individual takers there. There will • lie employed probaby two or three men in one place, who will have on" large hearth, who will be able to take ■ 2,600 loaves of bread together, with a minimum amount of coal. "The bread is delivered to the home, and this is one-half of the diet of that home. It was in peace time and it is now. In peace times there w«.- cat,niderable sugar, and dairy products were plentiful. Now these thing.- ar ■ scarce and the bread largely takes the; place of these foods So the bren.ll becomes of added importance frori every point of view. Remember that the peasantry in France live in villages. not in farms, and they subsist on the small local store ami bakeshop. "Please remember that the coal in France today is sllO and $135 per ton, and they have a good coal supply this year It is a burden to a French woman, who is working sixteen hours a day and taking care of a maimed soldier, or a tubercular person, to deliberately put an hour or an hour an 1 a half on her day at boiling rice >r making cornbread.

FIGHT THE SMUT And Save $66,000 on the Oats in Adams County This Year. HOW TO DO IT Hl I — Is Set Forth by County Agent M. H. Overton in Article Herewith. With the incessant demand for inci cased food production, the matter ot reJib ing and eliminating fa.un wastes does not receive sufficient attention from the average person. Everybody is wondering how the acreage of farm crops can ta increased and properly cared for with the lessened labor supply. There 1» Mill sufficient labor avuEzble to make au eu< >■ nu us increase in the food supply for next year if all of this labor is put to the best use. If the oat crop is considered for instance, it is found that there was a loss of st>t>.UOU worth of oats last yetr in Adams county alone from oat smut. This disease is entirely preventable t a: d ihe whole $66,000 worth of oats j could have been saved if the farmers | of this county had been willing io spend two cfents per acre and a small amount of time lo treat the seed oats before sowing. For the past few years, men who are especially interested in the control of oat smut have been checking up fields all over the state to find out exactly ho* much benefit the iarmers received from treating their seed oats with formaldehyde It has been found that all over I the ; late of Indiana an average of t ur bushels more oats were harvest ul on land where the seed was treated than where it was not treated. This four bushels per acre cost only two cents and a few minutes and at present market prices is worth $3.40. Th a year, there is less excuse than even for the farmers not treating their seed oats and saving this s6»>.Joo worth of food as a new and easier meth xi is being advocated by 'be state experiment station. W ith the new' method, a pint of formaldyhyde is m.xed with one pint of water a.id some of the mixture put into a hand sprayer. As the seed oats are shoveled over from one pile into another, one stroke of the sprayer is used for ea< h shovi Iful of oats and the spray is s| read over the whole shovelful :>s nearly as possible so that the largest number of oat grains are touched by the spray When through with this process, the oats are piled up and covered over with disinfected sacks r canvass for five hours At the e«d of this time, they are ready to drill immediately and do not have to ta dried as is required by the old method >f the oats are to ta stored before sowing. they should be aired out some oefore sacking or Tracing in bins so that the formaldehyde gas completely escapes. There are just two precautions to ta observed in the use of this new method. In the first place, ail sa ks or canvass used in covering over >he oats while piled up must ta well disinfected by spraying them thoroughly before use and all bins or sacks in which the oats are to be stored after treament must ta well sprayed. The second precaution, is not to leave the oats piled up under cover onger than fie hours, but they must ta left this long.
