'PusLic 1s WARNED Against Taking - ‘Substitutes for Nuxated lIron Physiclans Below Say That Ordin- ary Metallio iron s Cannot Possibly Give The Same STRENGTH, POWER ~ "AND ENDURANCE 'As Organic Im—lw Iron ' United States Judge Atkinson = J) Careful investigation by physicians ameng druggists and patients has revealed the. fact that there are thousands of people taking iron who do mot distinguish between or- ganic iron and metallic iron, and that such persons often fail to obtain the vital energy, strength and en- durance w hich they sesk, simply because they have sken the wrong form of jron. ; Therefore, phy- sicians mentioned| below, those who the mneed strength and blood builder to g0 to their fam- doctors and a preseri tion calling for or- | ganic_ iron—N ated Iron—and pre- sent this to their druggist so that there may be no question about ob- wining the proper article, But if they do not wish to go to the trouble of getting & prescrip- tion for.

It was in 1890, when the relations between the British and German em- pires were of the most cordial re- scription, that one of the greatest in- discretions ever committed by an Eng- lish premier took: place—the turning over of the island of Heligoland to the Kaiser in return for the protectorate of Zanzibar. Lord Salishury was then directing the foreign affairs of the empire, in addition to being head of the Govern- ment. He was approached cautiously by William IL's ambassador at Lon- don. With true Prussian craft the latter pointed out that the sray rock in the North Sea was useless to Great Britain and that his master desired it only for sentimental reasons. After all—as His Bxcellency suggested— what was it more than a small Ger- man summer resort under a foreign flag? The prime minister saw light through Prussian eyes, announced his decision to Parliament, and there was no discussion on the subject. Great Britain only woke up & few days after the bargain has been con- sumated. Every German ship avail- able was dressed with flags and took part in the procession that went out to take possession. And hardly had the standard of the new owners been raised than work was begun on the fortifications which were to make the island a thorn in the side of the Allies from August, 1914, until the other day.—New York Herald. FOR DAIRY CATTLE Dairy authorities point out that the amount of salt required by the indi- vidual animal varfes with the amount of feed consumed. A dry cow requires about three-fourths of an ounce of salt per day; the cow giving milk requires the same amount for maintenance, and it is estimated that a trifle over one- half ounce per day shouid be added for each-20 pounds of milk produced. mixed with the feed or fed in an open AGRICULTURAL INT }. Alfalfa and sweet clover sumac. Barly in 1910 domestic sumac was quoted at $25 per ton, while in May of this year Sicilian sumac was worth from $102 to $105 per ton at the chief Atlantic ports. . Gatherers should consult their state experiment station for methods of handling sumac or should write to the Department of Agriculture for in- formation. MORE CLOVERS AND DAIRY CATTLE NEEDED ON FARMS By P, G. HOLDEN. The world’s food problem, as point- ed out by Mr. Hoover, inciudes the need of an incredse of three million tons in the production of protein feeds, and an increased production of ore million pounds of diry products. If every American greater attention to the growing of protein feeds—alfalfa, sweet clover, cowpeas, soy beans, peanuts, and other members of the clover family— our production of protein feed and dairy products will beq greatly . in- creased. As a result, also, our pro- duction of almost every other crop produced on the farm will be greater. The growing of clovers, means crop rotation and diversified farming. It means more live stock aad more dairy vroducts. It means mora fertila soil, greater prosperity, a steady incom2 the éntire year, can be grown on any farm. Patience and de- termination alone are necessary for success. If we raise hay we are bound to, raise live stock. This means mere dairy cattle and more dairy products. Whatever the market price of. alfalfa may be,-it is worth more to us when gold in the form of milk or butier. * _Because alfalfa and all feeds are high, we cannot afford to feed the scrub cow that does not produce enough milk to pay for her keep. The dairy herds of France, Belgium and other European countries have been enormously reduce For years to come there wiil be more than a normal demand for dairy products.

The greater part of the gathered; American sumaec, however, is used for dyeing cotton goods. The sumac industry in the United States is of direct interest to the| country people of certain sections. It is largely a farm industry, since the| sumac is harvested and cured by: the country people and is sold] through country dealers for grinding | or for the manuftcture of sumac ex- tract. In recent years the quantity of | sumac harvested has been relat!velyi cheaper materials are in use, while| the demands of dyes have not been large. American sumac, owing to careless gathering and curing, yields a darker-colored leather than the sumac. imported from Sicily, and, since sumac is used for tanning light-col- ored leathers, this quality renders the American product less desirable for this purpose and decreases the demand for it. Investigation by specialists of the; Department of Agriculture with a view to the betérment of the condi- tions of collection and he improve- ment of the quality of American sumac indicate that the re-establish- ment of the sumac industry in this country on a firmer basis is entirely possible, and is especially desirable at this time, when the importation of Sicilian sumac is restricted by the difficulties of transportation. American sumac, if properly han- dled, will make an excellent. substi- tute for Sicillan sumac. Consumers of sumac must realize, however, that the first step necessary for the pro- duction of a high-grade sumac sim- flar to the foreign article is proper gathering and proper curing, which can be accomplished only by offering as an incentive to the country people a price commensurate with the qual- Ity. The better the sumac therbetter should be the price. In this way mu- the consumption of domestic sumac during the two or three years prior to 1817 has been more than 10,000 000 pounds annually. In 1917 we imported more than 11,000,000 pounds of ground Wi WEDNESDA¥—A. M., Dairymen’s Reconstruction Work. THURSDAY—A. M., Pomological Society and Vegetable Growers’ Assn. P. M., Joint Meeting.

The meetings will be arranged so as to allow plenty of time for visiting the exhibit, which should be the social center of the week.

The county corn shows have become an established institution in Connecti- cut, every county in the state having made arrangements for a show this year. Soy beans and small grains are included in the exhibits although interest centers chiefly around corn. over previous years.
