Sandy or Gravelly Loams Are
Best Adapted for Success
With Potatoes.
PLANT FOOD IS IMPORTANT
Never Advisable to Turn Up More
Than One Inch of Raw Subsoil at
One Plowing—Land Should
Be Pulverized.
(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of .Agriculture )
The types of soil in which tile po
| tato plant thrives best are those desig
I natetl ns sandy or gravelly loam soils.
It may he grown with a fair degree of
I success on any type of soil except
loose sand and a heavy, sticky clay
soil, provided the land Is well drained
and contains the necessary plant food.
Successful potato production is de
pendent to u large extent on the thor
oughness with which the land is pre
pared before planting the crop. Where
a horse can be used, the land should
be plowed from 8 to 10 inches deep,
provided the surface soil is of a suf
fleent depth to permit it. It is never
advisable to turn up more iiian one
inch of raw subsoil at any one plow
ing, so if previous plowings have not
been over 6 inches the maximum
depth at which it should be plowed ii
7 inches. ,
Thoroughly Pulverized.
Whether the land is plowed or
spaded, it should be thoroughly pul
verized Immediately afterwards. It is
a had practice to allow the freshly
turned soil to bake in the sun and
wind, and thereby become oloddy.
Where horse labor can be used, the
land after plowing should be thor
oughly disked first, then spring

possible when spading It tip, after
which it can he put in a fine condition
of mellowness with a steel garden
rake. The importance of thoroughly
fining tlm soil cannot lie overempha
sized, for it increases the water
holding capacity of the soil, render*
more plant food available. and reduces
the number of weeds.
When to Plant Potatoes.
The date of planting necessarily
must Ik* governed hy climatic condi
tions. In attempting to produce as
early a crop as possible, some risk
must always be incurred of the plants
being Injured hy late spring frosts.
As it general proposition, it is best to
plant potatoes as soon as there is lit
tle likelihood of killing frosts after
the plants are up and the ground is In
condition to work.
Depth to Plant.
Plant the small eye cuttings from
1 Vi, to 3 inches deep, depending upon
the character of the soil the lighter
the soil the greater the depth of plant
ing. Larger sets may be planted 1

Health
About
Gone
Many thousands of
women suffering from
womanly trouble, have
been benefited by the use
of Cardui, the woman’s
tonic, according to letters
we receive, similar to this
one from Mrs. Z. V. Spell,
of Hayne, N. C. "1 could
not stand on my feet, and
just suffered terribly,”
she says. ‘‘As my suf
fering was so great, and
he had tried other reme
dies, Dr. - had us
get Cardui. . . I began
improving, and it cured
me. 1 know, and my
doctor knows, what Car
dui did for me, for my
nerves and health were
about gone.”
TAKE
CARDUI
The Womans Tonic
She writes further: “ I
am in splendid health . . .
can do my w'ork. 1 feel 1
owe it to Cardui, for I was
fn dreadful condition.”
If you are nervous, run
down and weak, or suffer
from headache, backache,
•tc., every month, try
Cardui. Thousands of
women praise this medi
cine for the good it has
done them, and many
physicians who have used
Cardui successfully with
their women patients, for
years, endorse this medi
cine. Think what it means
to be in splendid health,
like Mrs. Spell. Give
Cardui a trial.

WHITE COUNTY MAN HURT
Is Severely Bruised and Scratched
When Train Hits His Car
Searcy, May 30— Ben Crisco, 24,
was seriously injured and his auto
mobile demolished yesterday after
noon when the car was truck by a
switch engine on the Missouri anu
North Arkansas railroad, about a
mile south of town. The engine was
running slowly at the time, it is said,
which probably saved Crisco’s life.
The man’s head and face were con
siderably bruised and scratched, a
shoulder was broken and his spine in- (
jured. Physicians believe he will re- i
cover. Crisco lives about five miles
from Searcy.
