DRAGGING ROADS IN SPRING Dy Taking Advantage of Proper Mo ment Many of Ftutn and Dump Can Do Smoothed Out Mont earth and gravel roads nro In bad nhiipu during tho entire winter, largely becnuso of tho heavy fnll haul ing of harvested crops, and tho rush of necessary farm work, which tnkes precedonco over nny kind of rond work. Tho cold weather striken them In this condition nnd makes each rut and bump almost nn solid nn rock, nnd In tho sprint; these break down Into mud. Traveling over these ruts Is n very racking, uncomfortable, nud sometimes painful, operation. Tho rough Jolts re qulro n reduction In speed, causo an ndded strain on nil classes of hauling Plan of Plank Road Drag. equipment, nnd frequently forco tho au tomobile owner to abandon tho uso of his car for tho entire spring rather than risk u breakdown. Most of tho unpleasantness nnd dif ficulty may bo rcqicdicd In many local ities oven In tho worst weather, for thcro nro times when tho worst cut up surfuco Is in fairly Rood condition for dragging. Ity taking ndvnntngo of tho proper moment, tho ruts and bumps can bo smoothed out nnd tho next frcczo will result in n smooth hard surfaced plko that can bo favorably compared to n concrete highway. Owing to tho fact that tho road sur fa co will bo rather wet nnd sticky when dragged, greater enro must be exercised In handling tho drag. If tho blades of tho drag nro set vertically, thcro will bo n tendency to scrnpo up too much earth, or, In Uio language of tho rond mnn, "Hall up in front." Also, If the hitch to tho team Is set too near tho center, the nnglo of tho drag with tho rond will bo too nearly u right nnglc, or straight ncross, to shed or crown tho wet earth. Dragging under theso conditions should bo more nn "Ironing out tho wrinkles" process; henco tho blndcs of tho drng should bo given a forward or flatter Inclination than when work ing n dry rond. Tho hitch should bo so arranged that tho nnglo of tho drag Is moro nearly parallel to tho road than ordinary, thus causing tho earth to shed better nnd prevent trouble. For extremely bad conditions, tho uso of tho rond machlno ahead of tho drag will bo found effective. In nil cases, tho road Bhould bo freed of all stumps, snags, nnd bowlders, as theso seriously retard good dragging. A llttlo practlco will cnablo tho op erator to do n fairly crcdltablo Job, und after a subsequent frcczo tho road will present n smoother and much moro comfortablo surface. Then, when tho spring rains come, tho road will quick ly elicd tho water that formerly col lected In tho deep ruts, and bo dry and hard long beforo similar roads not dragged. Tho present difficulties encountered In getting lnrgo amounts of crushed Htono for road repairs necessitates tho greatest caro In maintaining all road surfaces in tho best posslblo way with out tho uso of additional materials.

Cll-.) Nltrnto of soda added In March to orchard noils lacking adequate, nltro- gon supply onuses n larger sot of fruit In Anrll. nn Imtnedlnto change In tho character of tho follngo and a stimula tion of wood growth, reports tho Hood Illver branch oxporlmcnt station. Hor ticultural observations, chemical an- alyncs and soil survoys of Hood ltlvor noils all lndlcato that nitrogen Is tho element most needed. Indications of lack of adoquato nitrogen aro thus pointed out In tho report: "Orchards In a somewhat run down or dovltnllzed condition; nnmcly, those which nro making very llttlo vegcta tlvo growth, either In twig or leaf, thoso which have thin, yellow leaves and weak fruit buds." All such nro grently benefitted by tho uso of nitro gen. With such trees tho nitrogen pro duces a vigorous wood growth, cnuscs tho leaves to becomo thicker and greener, nnd induces moro and larger fruit, thus restoring tho trees to a normal condition. Ono of tho most striking results from nitrogen wan tho Increased por contngo of sot. Tho rapidity with which nitrogen in available form gives results is almost startling. Pollination troubles in some cases seem to have been duo to lack of suf ficient vitality in fruit spurs and buds to maturo fruit, oven though they blos som. Growers in tho Hood River district aro advised not to buy or uso mixed fertilizers on their orchard lands, sluco nitrogen Is tho only clement that gave results In tho station trials. The nltrnto is applied to tho ground about oach largo, mature tree at tho rnto of six pounds to tho treo, smaller trees In proportion. Six pounds sup ply about ono pound of actual nitro gon. This is enough to restore tho treo to its natural vigor. Indoed this amount added two years In succession frequently produces nn over-stimulation In somo Instances, resulting In too heavy foliage, too strong wood growth, and too much over-big fruit. Application is best mado in early March. If not earlier than May, which has been tho usual tlmo of application, vory llttlo benefit is received from tho nltrnto that year. Not enough mols turo Is obtained to dissolve tho for tlllzer. Having so pronounced effect on tho set of fruit it should bo applied somo tlmo boforo tho trees bloom. Tho host method of application was found to bo spreading tho dry crystals broadcast on tho ground and harrow ing thorn in soon after. Later observations Indicate that tho nltrnto Is moro lasting in Its effects than formorly thought. It Is known that nitrate applied In 1014 wns bone ficlnl In 191C. Tho principal effect of nltrnto Is on tho troo rather than on tho soils. The addition of organic matter Is necos sary to improve the physical condition of tho soli. HOUSEHOLD ACCOUNT IS BETTER THAN ALLOWANCE Onco wo woro told thnt tho woman of tho houso should bo given an nl lownnco to pay for tho food for tho family. No special reason was of forcd. Now wo loam thnt keoplng house hold accounts Is tho way to rcgulato family expenses. A very good reason is ottorcd "tho allowanco tends to mako tho housewife niggardly or wasteful." Tho nccounts should bo kept by tho housowlto, snys Miss A. draco John son, professor of houso administra tion, "but sho must havo tho hearty co-operation of tho husband in appor tioning Uio Incomo and maintaining tho fnmlly stnndnrds of living.

If only every woman and likewise every man could realize tho wonders of the morning lnsldo bath, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of the thousands of sickly, anaemic-looking men, women and girls with pasty or muddy complexions; Instead of the multitudes of "nerve wrecks," "rundowns," "brain fags" and pessimists we should see a virile, op timistic throng of rosy-cheeked people everywhere. An inside bath is had by drinking, each morning before breakfast a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate In if to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels the previous day's indigestible waste, sour fermentations and poisons before putting more food Into tho stomach. Those subject to sick headache, bil iousness, zasty breath, rheumatism, colds; and particularly those who havo a pallid, sallow complexion and who are constipated very often, are (urged to obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate at tho drug store ' which will cost but a trifle but is suf ficient to demonstrate the quick and remarkable change in both health and appearance awaiting those who prac tice internal sanitation.

SUFFERING CATS! GIVE THIS MAN THE GOLD MEDAL No humbug! Any corn, whether hard, soft or between the toes, will loosen right up and lift out without a particle of pain or soreness. This drug is called frcczono and is a compound of ether discovered by a Cincinnati man. Ask at any drug store for a small bottlo of freezono, which will cost but a trifle, but is sufficient to rid one's feet of every corn or callous. Put a few drops directly upon any tender, aching corn or callous. In stantly tho soreness disappears and shortly tho corn or callous will loosen and can bo lifted off with tho fingers. This drug freezone doesn't oat out the corns or callouses but shrivels them without even irritating the sur rounding skin. Just think! No pain at all; no sore ness or smarUng when applying it or afterwards. It your druggist don't havo freezono have him order It for you. Adv. Power of Gentleness Kindness pays.
