Dr. Alonzo Ethelbert Watkins, the memory expert of Chicago, said the other day Id an address: "Another way to cultivate the memory is hy pictures by the pictorial method, as we call It. For Instance, suppose you vfiint to remember the poet, Robert Burns. Well, then, you picture to yourself a policeman In flames. Bobby Burns, see? Ha, ha. lia r "Doctor, a question!" yelled a man In thf gallery. "Well, what Is It?" asked the memory expert. "How are me to know," yelled the gullerylte, "that your picture doesot represent Kobert Browning?" Nervous Spells Near Heart Failure Eatonic Stopped It Mr. C. B. Loats, writing from his home at Lay, Md., says, "I had been taking medicine from four specialists, but believe me, friends, one box of eatonic. has done me more good than all the remedies I have 'ever tried. I was in awfully bad shape. About half an hour before meals, I pot nervous, trembling and beart pressure so bad I could hardly walk or talk. Ono box of eatonic stopped It." Eatonic quickly produces these truly marvelous results, because It takes iyp the poisons and pases and carries them right out of the body. Of course, when the cause Is removed, the sufferer gets well. Everyone that wants better health Is told to have just a little faith enough to try one box of eatonic from your own druggist. The cost is a" trifle, which he will hand back to you if you are not pleased. Why should you suffer another day, when quick, sure relief, is waiting for you? Adv. Playing Safe.

MOST ESSENT AL

Interesting and Instructive Ex periments Made With Sows at Illinois Station. SIZE OF LITTER INCREASED Popular Belief Substantiated That Young Mothers Produce Smaller Pigs Variation . In Length of Germination Period. A careful study of records relating to the birth of 720 litters of pigs at the University of Illinois reveals many sidelights for those Interested in heg raising. The 720 Utters contained 5,840 pigs of seven distinct breeds. The following conclusions are drawn in bulletin No. 220 of the University of Illinois agricultural experiment station. On the whole, the belief that .young sows produce smaller pigs than do older sows is substantiated. Likewise the data substantiated popular belief that up to a certain age, about three years, there Is nn increase In the size of litter as sows grow older. The older sows farrowed 12.r per cent of dead or Immature pigs ns compared to 3.1 per cent by the younger sows. It is doubtful whether there are any variations in farrow attributable to the season at which pigs are farrowed. Increase in Litter. In succeeding litters from the same sow there was an Increase In number of pigs per litter and In tins weight of Individual pigs until the fourth litter, at which time the sows were threeand one-half years old. The records obtained from 549 litters showed a wide range, OS to 124 days, in the length of gestation period, with an average of 114.58 days. However, 93.0 per cent of the litters were I -i:mmmm ..-. - ' y-v-v.-.y.' Ill rt s Farmers Should Be Careful That Pig Pens Are Clean and Dry. farrowed between the one hundred and eleventh and one hundred and seventeenth days. The general belief that old sows have a gestation period one to three days longer than younger sows seems to have no 'very good basis. Neither Sex Predominates. There was little, if any, correlation between the length of gestntlon period and the birth weight of pigs, and the sex of pigs In relation to the length of gestation shows no tendency for either sex to predominate more than normal. The average size of litters was 8.1 pigs. The average weight of a litter was about 20 pounds. The average weight of pigs in litters with fewer pigs than the average was 2.07 pounds, and in litters with more pigs It was 2.57 pounds. The grand average of all pigs was 2.55 pounds. PROVIDE GOOD GREEN FEED Unoccupied Space in Garden Should Be Seeded to Rapid Growing Crop of Some Kind. The average poultry keeper Is always short of succulent green feed duriug the late summer and early fall, and provision should be made for a supply. Every hit of ground in the garden from which early crops have been harvested should be seeded to chard,' rape, lettuce, kale or whatever makes the most rapid growtli In your locality. ALFALFA AND SWEET CLOVER Two Crops Are First Cousins But Decidedly Different in Making Their Growths. Cut alfalfa when the buds of the second growth begin to show at the crowns of the plants. Cut sweet clover when the blossoms are about half out and raise the sickle bar at least four Inches. These two crops are first cousins but they are decidedly different In this respect : Alfalfa shoots from a crown ; sweet clover shoots from buds on the main stem. CAUSE OF OVERGROWN WINGS Result From Defective Brooding Conditions or Lack of Vitality Clip Them Off. Overgrown wings in brooder chicks ,-esult from defective brooding conditions or lack of vitality. Often the wings really are not overgrown hut only appear so because the chicks, being weakly, let them hang down. If they develop to the point where they are a burden to the chick they should be clipped off.

AUTUMN IS CLEARING TIME FOR FARMLAND

Convert AH Waste Places Into Revenue Producers. Goats, Sheep or Oattle Are Favored In Order Ncmed for Keeping Down Sprout Growth Methods for Removing Stumps. The fair-weather days of the autumn afford the- furmer an opportunity to undertake the clearing of land ,t for which he hns no time In the busy summer months, and which can not bo done while the land Is wet in the spring. On thousands of farms thero are cut-over tracts which should bo converted Into revenue producers as soon as possible. If the owner decides that the land In question is better suited to crop production than to forest growth, a careful study of the most economical method of removing stumps and small growth should be made. Most cut-over land passes through three stages before reaching Its greatest agricultural value. The waste and small growth Is disposed of first, then it Is allowed to remain In stumps for a few seasons, until the smaller stumps are dead and decayed, during which time It is used for pasture or may be cultivated. Finally, all the stumps are removed. Generally it Is best to cut brush as close as possible to the ground and avoid leaving sharp points that might injure stock. However, If the wood Is of no value and the ground Is not to be cultivated before the stumps are removed. It may be best to cut the trees rather high above the ground. If the stumps are left fliree feet high there will be less sprouting than If cut low down, and such stumps are more easily pulled. The most successful method of keeping down sprout growth Is by heavy pasturing by goats, sheep, or cattle, in the order named. Any sprouts not killed by pasturing should be cut or knocked off with the head of an ax. There are a great variety of methods used In removing stumps, by means of burning,, pullers and dynamite. Farmers Bulletin 074, "Clearing Land," prepared by the United States department of agriculture, contains Information designed especially for persons interested In this subject. A copy can ho had on request. PREPARE LAND FOR ALFALFA One of the Best Ways to Get Moisture and Well-Packed Soil Is by Disking and Rolling. Fall seeding of alfalfa requires moisture and a soil which is well packed. One of the best ways of getting such a condition is to disk the ground, as soon as oats or small grain is taken off, then plow.lt and pack It thoroughly by harrowing it or rolling. Soil which has been In a cultivated crop and removed early, such as early potatoes, makes good ground for fall seeding. On ground of this kind a thorough disking and t-arrowing will of tt ii put It In good shape for alfalfa. On many of our types of soli alfalfa will do better if limestone is applied. This limestone should be applied after the ground has been plowed' and then harrowed in to give best results. SWINE FOR WINTER MARKETS Temptation to Fatten Quickly on Corn Alone Is Liable to Cause Loss of Animals. Hogs for the early winter markets should be carefully fed. The temptation to fatten quickly on corn alone Is liable to cause the careless farmer the loss of one or more animals. A better and a safer feed Is wheat middlings and wheat bran made Into a thick slop. Give a' feed of this just what the hogs will eat up clean twice a day, then give a moderate feed of corn. Keep a plentiful supply of fresh, clean water in the pens. See that tho trough is clean. Have clean, dry pens and yards. Dust the pens once a week with air-slacked lime. POTATO DISEASE EXPLAINED So-Called Blight Due to Tip-Burn or Small Insect Known as the Leaf-Hopper. Much of th? so-called potato blight which is to 1 found Is due to what is really tip-burn, or it may be due to a small insect known as the leaf-hopper. The tip-hum Is caused hy the dry weather and extreme heat as the sun and wind draw the water from the plant faster than the roots can supply It from the ground. The leaf-hopper Is a small, greenlsl -like insect, which will be found jumping -from one plant to another as the plants are moved. BORER EATS CLOVER ROOTS Here ate threo life stages of one of the worst clover pests, the root borer. The root borer will attack peas as well as clover. The larvae and the beetles of the borer literally riddle the roots of the clover plant. To borer may be the trouble with that sickly, -spotty" clover patch of yours. Do a little Investigating.

IS RACE TO BE HAIRLESS?

Prediction Made, Not Without Reason, That Coming Generations Will Be Bald. That the man of the next century Aill have no hair on his head has been predicted time and again, and the fact that many men under forty are bald seems to Indicate that this may be possible, the men of the coming generations acquiring baldness at an earlier age until finally a hairless specimen of the genus homo shall arrive. But It Is through no fault of their own that men are losing their hair, while women are perhaps unconsciously getting ready to become hairless females of the species, and while they may be only working out the will of Providence, they are doing It deliberately by "bobbing" their hair. The fashion was Introduced, it Is said, by Russian women, who disguised themselves trying to get out of their bolshevist-ridden country. Coming to the United States, their bobbed hair attracted attention, was first taken up by the bohemlan set In New York, and now Is rapidly spreading. Some of the older women, not wishing to sacrifice their locks, are said to be wearing false bobbed hair.
