rpHE seed for eggplant should be

plant and cannot be succeaarully
planted until the ground has become
warm and the. weather settled.
The soil best adapted to the egg
plant la a rich, aandy loam, well
drained. The plants should be set In
rows three feet apart, with the plants
two feet spart in the row a. Cultiva
tion should be frecuent and thorough.
Freah manure should not be used on

Many Experiments Being Made to Flag
Snbatltate for Spree In Alr
ahls Constractloa.
Extensive experiments are being con
ducted by the United States Forest
Service In an effort to find some wood
that can be substituted for spruce. In
part at least. In airplane construction,
reports H. S. Graves, Chief Forester of
the United States, who arrived In this
city yesterday from Missoula, Mont.
"Investigations of forest products are
being made at the Government labora
tory at Madison, Wis," said Mr. Graves
yesterday. "We have taken up tor so
lution a number of war problems. In,
volving the use of wood, methods of
drying. Including strengtn tests.
"We are also bunting for a substitute
for spruce tn the various parts ot air
plane construction. The practicability
of using veneers in the construction of
these air machines is also being tested.
Mahogany and black walnut are today
used almost exclusively in tne manu
facture of propellers and we are striv
ing to find some other forest product
equally serviceable.
"By utilising other woods than spruce
wherever possible we will be able to
conserve spruce, which does not grow
extensively in this country."
Lieutenant-Colonel Graves, for the
Chief Forester holds such a commis
sion, returned six weeks ago from
France, where he was stationed for
eight monflis aa representative of the
United States, in charge of the task of
making the forest reserves of France

Stay off the damp ground, avoid ex
posure, keep feet dry, eat less meat,
drink lots of water and above all take
a spoonful ot salts occasionally to, keep
down uric acid.
Rheumatism Is caused by poisonous
toxin, called uric acid, which is gen
erated in the bowels and absorbed into
the blood. It is the function of the
kidneys to filter this acid from th
blood and cast It out in the urine. The
pores of the skin are also a means of
freeing the blood of this impurity. In
damp and chilly, cold weather the skin
pores are closed, thus forcing the kid
neys to do double work, they become
weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate
this uric acid, which keeps accumula
ting and circulating through the sys
tem, eventually settling in the joints
and muscles, causing stiffness, soreness
and pain called rheumatism.
At the first twinge ,of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon
ful In a glass of water and drink be
fore brekfast each morning for a week.
This is said to eliminate uric acid by
stimulating the kidneys to normal ac
tion, thus ridding the blood of these
Impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia.
and Is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject to
rheumatism. Here you have a pleas
ant, effervescent lithla-water drink -which
overcomes uric acid and Is bene
ficial to your kidneys as well. Adv.
