SYMPTOMS
Slight Symptons Sometimes
Presage Serious Results . .
Do you feel tired, have you
a sallow complexion, constipa
tion, headache, bad breath,
sleplessness or circles around
your eyes? If so, you are un
doubtedly suffering from liv
er complaint.
Perhaps you don’t feel very
badly now, but delay is dang
erous. To allowyour Liver to
continue out of order, is to in
vite a serious chronic illness.
When ever you have the
slightest symptons of liver
trouble, stop it immediately.
You can do it harmlssly and
mildly by taking Liv-Ver-Lax
the natural vgetable com
pound that is replacing calo
mel everywhere. It has all
the efectiveness not the effect
of Calomel. Insist on getting
the original Liv-Ver-Lax, bear

Tif.lELY SUGGESTIONS !N FERTi
LIZING, PLANTING AND CULTI
VATION OF STAPLE FOOD PROD
UCT ADAPTABLE TO ARKANSAS.
Kxeepting rlC(>, the potato is the
mod widely 11si < 1 rood plant for the
human family. Ii should therefore
find a place on every farm. Originat
ing; In America, it has been improved
and Ps cultivation has been increased
at about the same rate as has been the
increase in population. They are now
grown in all states of the United
States, but principally in the Northern
and ('astern states.
Fertilizer.
Generally speaking, a fertilizer con
taining from three per cent to four
per cent nitrogen, six percent to eight
per cent phosphoric acid, and nine per
cent to 10 per cent of potash will give
good results, the kind and amount to
apply depending upon the kind or
soil and the natural fertility, if the
soil is clayey tt will require less pot
ash than the sandy types.
Planting.
Potatoes should be planted as early
as possible in the spring, say. from
Fel ruary _’n in the southern part of
the state to April 1 in the northern
part. Plant about four inches deen
in rows three feet apart, planting the
pieces one foot apart in the row.
Of the varieties best suited for Ar
kansas, Red iiliss, Early Ohio and Irish
Cobbler are possibly the best early va
rieties, while Rural New Yorker No.
2, Carmen No. 2 and Sir Walter Ra
leigh are the best late varieties. There
Is no one variety that is best for all
soils under all circumstances.
Cultivation.
Cultivation Should begin as early is
possible after the plants begin to an
pear. and should continue at intervals
of ten days to two weeks. Do not use
plows that run deep into the soil, but
rather one that has a number of small
teetli to pulverise and loosen the soil
t,c a depth of from to 3 inches.
The object of cultivation is to keep
down weeds and to conserve the soil
moisture, therefore cultivation should
be done as early as possible after a
ruin even if the ground had been
plowed the day before.

SPRAYING THE
POTATO FOR BLIGHT
BORDEAUX MIXTURE USED SUC
CESSFULLY AT EXPERIMENT
STATION FARM AT FAYETTE
VILLE—OTHER MIXTURES.
I The early crop of Irish potatoes in
Arkansas is especially subject to fruit
troubles that can lie kept, out largely
by spraying. These are the early
blight, sometimes called black rust,
and tlie Colorado potato beetle, some
times called sisiply the potato bug.
The early blight causes the loss often
| as much as fifty per cent of a crop
, because of the failure to form tubers,
j it makes matters worse in a dry sea
| son. and in dry seasons causes the
| greatest trouble. Every Irish potato
grower should spray lor the blight
because it is so wide spread
that there is hardly a potato patch in
the state free from it, and we should
spray also for the potato beetles it
they appear in the potato patch. The
spray for the beetles can be simply
added to the regular spraying for the
blight and will cost r:;> more for ap
plication, the only cost being the small
amount for the poison.
For ihi' early blight use Bordeaux
mixture at the strength of 4-4-50. Thi
is tin' ordinary Bordeaux mixture. For
the potato beetle you can add to tins
mixture when you are making the or
dinary spraying, live or six ounces of
Paris green to every 50 gallons of
spray mixture, or you can use two or
1 three pounds of arsenate of lead paste
; to 50 gallons of this sprav mixture.
The regular spraying will he given
as follows: The tirst one when the po
tato plants are about S inches high,
the second and third ones at intervals
of about two weeks following this
f’sually these three will be sufficient
in any ordinary season.

BURN INFECTIOUS MATERIAL
Way Diseases That Kill Cattle, Hogs
and Poultry Are Stopped.
During the course of a year it is
usually necessary to dispose of many
dead animals <v. the average farm
Especially Is this true on a poultry
and stock farm. There is always
more or less loss among poultry and
hogs, and an occasional loss among
cattle and horses, besides trimmings
and f/tfa. ir'tftn ? itt- e;al~ ruMnuls
that are being creased tor table use.
Many times this material is simply
removed some distance from the
buildings and there allowed to decay.
If the material contains anything of
nn infectious nature, such as tuber
ci!" i.u o... cholera, chicken cholera

Soreness in the Throat and Lungs
