The farmers are sowing from ten to twenty-five to fifty acres In wheat this fall, and the crop on the whole will be larger than last season.

(Advertisement) A Great Change Enters Into Ufa of Storekeeper A certain unassuming gentleman In this city who happens to be a prominent dealer in furniture and who up to a few weeks ago had become a recluse because of his physical condition, tells this remarkable and most interesting tale: "For a number of years," he said, "I have been so closely confined to my business working zealously to make my store representative In every respect that wear and ear linally got me, my face became drawn and haggrd nd my dosposition seemed to urge people to evade me. It was then that I began to despise my own company. My bookkeeper, who has been with me a long time, one day suggested that I needed a rest and that my

nerves required attention. She told ras that her father had been in the state of health which I was experienc

ing and that he had taken Phosphated Iron. 'Look at him now," she said. 'He works ten hours a day and appears to be the happiest man in the world which he believes he is, he says.' "All this happened less than a month ago. I followed the advice and look at me now. Back in the harness with a smile all the while. I am feeling more lit than ever. When I see a tired looking face the name of Phosphated Iron immediately comes in my mind. I am convinced that it is converting many a worn out body Into a life rich in thought, ambition and enthusiasm." Special Notice To insure physicians and patients receiving the genuine Phosphated Iron we have put up In capsules only so do not allow dealers to substitute pills or tablets, insist on the genuine in capsules only.

Experts to Show How to Save Food at National Dairy Show

HARVEST SEED CORN BEFORE IT FREEZES By P. G. HOLDEN. EVERY ear of corn Intended for planting should be harvested before the severe fall freezes and stored where It will dry out and keep dry. In Iowa and the northern half of fillnols this work should be done during the last ten days in September or the first four or five days

of October. Frozen seed corn costs the country millions of dollars every year.

Many farmers are careful to harvest and store their seed corn at the

proper time and in the proper manner, but the majority of us depend for seed

upon the occasional good ears found during the husking season or we select onr seed from the crib In the spring.

Poor Seed Means Small Crop. This results in poor seed corn, and poor seed corn means a poor stand,

missing hills, weak stalks, producing little or nothing. It means less than 30 bushels per acre, instead of 60. It means that we produce an average of one

small ear to each hill instead of two or three. It means wasted land and wasted labor and In these days of food shortage we cannot afford to waste either. Six bushels of seed will plant about 43 acres of corn, if there is no waste and no replanting Is necessary. But it is besi to save 15 or 20 bushels for each 40 acres This will provide foi all ordinary emergencies and will enable us to plant only thi best and strongest ears. One of the best methods of gatherinj seed corn is to go int the best field witl bags or baskets an select well maturet ears from the mos vigorous stalks. We should con side? the stalk in se lecting seed corn. I requires large, thriftj stalks to product good, big ears. Do no take an ear from ( stalk that grew in i hill by Itself or fron

one. in a hill with i barren or weak stalk Choose ears of me

dium height. The highest ears will produce late corn; the lowest ears will produce early corn with shallow kernels and wide furrows between the rows. Pick ears that droop over so that their tips are turned downward. Thej shed water better and are drier than ears standing upright. The shani should be short, as ears with long shanks are hard to husk and are often damaged. Select Ears Carefully. The husks 6hould be long enough to cover tho tips of the ear, but not extend far beyond. If the tip is bare, the ear is likely to be damaged bj insects or disease. Husks extending far beyond the tip of the ear are tightlj closed and the ear cannot dry out well and Is hard to husk.

There should be a medium growth of broad, thrifty leaves, distributed

evenly over the stalk and the plant should be free from all forms of disease, such as smut, rust, etc., and should also be free from suckers As soon as the corn is picked, it should be husked and placed so that air can circulate freely around every ear. Never put It In a pile on the floor, even over night. A rack can be made or purchased which will provide proper conditions for storing seed corn, but one of the best methods is to tie it up with binding twine. The strings, containing 12 or 15 ears each, can be suspended from horizontal wires or from nails driven in rafters. This method of storing gives better protection from mice and better drvilation of air than when the corn is spread on the floor or corded in piles. The atr of s (fe upstairs room, where the windows can be opened to give circulation of air during October and November, is the best place to hang seed corn. A space 3 by 8 feet will hold 200 strings of seed enough to plant 200 acres. Hang the strings in rows, four Inches apart, each way.

COLUMBUS, O., Sept. 26. Importance of conserving food products and of consuming perishable edibles so that wheat and other non-perishable foods may be sent across the Atlantic to feed our allies and our army,' will be shown by huge exhibits and will be the big message the keynote of the eleventh, annual National Dairy Show which will be held at the state fair grounds here for ten days, beginning Oetobsr 18. Herbert C. Hoover, the national food administrator, has been asked to be the principal speaker at the show, and tell what Americans are doing and what they can do by conservation and preparation of food to assist in winning the war. Conservation of food and food resources will be urged in most of the exhibits. Exhibit on Milk. For the first time, the federal department of agriculture will send specialists to the show to lecture on food economy and conservation. One federal exhibit, costing $25,000 to install, will demonstrate the manufacture of by-products from milk. The exhibits will show how thousands of gallons of skimmed milk, now wasted annually, can be converted into nourishing foods. Another exhibit will show that the milk from one good cow during the life of that cow is equal in food value to the meat from seventeen beef steers. Other exhibits will show that cattle raising is necessary to soil fertility that in the East where cattle raising has been abandoned, the soil is deterorating and crops are becoming so poothat manufacturing dependent upon agriculture is.moving elsewhere. There will be a domestic science school with experts in charge, which will give demonstrations in home food conservation. Other exhibits will show that 18 percent of the daily food of Americans comes from the dairy cow. Demonstrations, showing pasteurizing of milk and the manufacture of butter.

PERSHING, Ind.. Sept. 26. Ralph Personette and Vera DeHayes, leading farmers, have been busy this week filling their silos. Each have 90 ton silos for winter feed.

Revitalize your blood, and put your system in condition to resist the hardships of winter. It is the strong-blooded men and women who are vigorous and healthy In winter, and who are not inconvenienced by the cold, wet days. Wet feet don't bother them, sudden changes cause no inconvenience, and even when a cold is "caught," because of contact, in a close, stuffy room, with some one already infected, the trouble seldom lasts over a day or two. This highly desired state of health is brought about by having rich, pure blood, uncontaminated by impurities of any kind. You may possibly think your blood is all right you are troubled by outward signs. Yet you have felt tired and languid, you have lost some sleep or had some minor ailments at times, but you regard yourself as in "fairly good condition physically." This may be true, but yon should take nothing for granted, you 6hould not "guess" that you are all right. The thing to do is to make yourself right by taking a good blood tonic and lnvigorator, such as S. S. S. It is the best known blood tonic on the market today.

There Is hardly a man, woman or child in America who has not heard of it. It has helped to restore many people to health. It has brought relief in thousands of cases of blood disorders during the past fifty years. S. S. S. is a standard treatment for all blood troubles. It Is a true blood tonic, that purifies and brings( new vigor and new life to the blood stream. It Is guaranteed to be purely vegetable, to contain no mercury or other mineral drugs, but to be made from herbs and roots carefully selected for their known medicinal properties. For chronic sores, ulcers, catarrh, rheumatism, eczema, psoriasis, salt rheum, tetter, ache and other disease are due to Infected blood, S. S. S. acts quickly and satisfactorily. It counteracts the germs and poisons, cleanses the system of unhealthy accumulations, literally washes all foreign matter from the blood and renews its life-giving properties. Be sure to take S. S. S. this winter. The renewal of vigor that it will give you will be well worth while. One thing you can be sure of and that Is if you take S. S. S. you will be benefitted. Get it today at your drug store refuse any substitute. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC COMPANY, Drawer 11. Atlanta, Ga.

SIX.

A big touring car for five people

M Cars aft $895 Ho $1250 Surpassed by Saxon "Sis" all $935

Now of course it is generally known that Saxon "Six" is an abler performer than any other car in its price class. That fact has been fixed by a score of different public tests. Now as to its quality and value. Let us together make exact comparisons. Here we take 11 important features of Saxon "Six" at $935. And we will compare them with the features of 14 cars ranging in price from $895 to $1250. One more thing. To prove the unquestioned value and quality of each Saxon "Six" feature, we will note how many costly cars also have it. Saxon "Six" at $935 has Continental motor, Timken axles, Timken bearings, Fedders radiator, Stromberg carburetor, Remy ignition, Spiral bevel

gear, Warner steering gear, Exide storage battery, Semi-floating axle, and Wagner 2-unit starting and lighting system. There are 25 cars costing $2,000 and up to $10,000 that also use these same 11 features. Yet the first of the list of 14 cars costing $895 to $1250, has only one of the 11 features mentioned. The second of the 14 cars has only 1 of the 11 features. The third of the 14 cars has only 3 of the 11 features. The fourth has only 1 of the 11. Of the 10 remaining cars on this list of 14, three have not a single one of the 11 important features. Three of the remaining 10 have only 2 of the 11 important features. Three of the 10 have 3 of the. 11 important features. And one has 4 of the 11 important features.

There is food for thought in that comparison. Thirteen of the 14 cars in this list cost from $10 to $315 more than Saxon "Six." Yet not one of them has more than 4 of the same costly car features that Saxon "Six" at $935 gives you. Bear in mind, too, that Saxon "Six" is a "Six." This is important. For no "four" can hope to approximate a "Six" in acceleration, in flexibility, in smoothness, in quietness, and in long service. That makes it easy to decide whether or not Saxon "Six" is the car for your money., And the price now but not for long is $935. So place your order at once. Saxon "Six," $935; Saxon "Six" Sedan $1395; Saxon "Six" Chummy Roadster, $935. F. o. b. Detroit.
