Indigestion Gas On Stomach Pains After Meals Many people suffer terribly from gas and pains in the stomach after every meal, and are kept in constant misery. For the past 44 years Burdock Blood Bitters has been bringing hope and joy to thousands suffering from various forms of stomach trouble, helping them to eat three square meals a day; helping them to eat anything they wish, without having to suffer for it after. Mr. Fred Nielson, Moose Jaw, + Writes:--"All last summer 1 was troubled with stomach trouble and indigestion, and also gas on the stomach. I could not eat anything except some light food and even then I would be bothered with pains after each meal. I could not work a whole day without being done out. I had tried everything; doctors, medicines and pills, until I read about Burdock Blood Bitters. - I have taken four bottles and it has nearly, if not com- pletely, restored me to health again."

ES Abernethy's Shoe Store A hotbed is a miniature green- house heated by the natural fermen- | tation of horse manure, furnishing | the easiest and least expensive means of securing two months' ad- | vantage or more in the growth of | vegetables and flowers requiring a long season to produce full crops. These plants, for the most part, are too tender to be planted in the open ground before the first of May at the earliest. The two months' growing start they receive through planting the seed in March permits them to begin bearing two months earlier after they have been transplanted into the open ground than if the seed planting had been delayed until the absence of frosts made it safe to plant in seed beds in the open. Not only is the hotbed an excellent de- vice for getting such early plants as are too tender to plant in' the open before May 1st going, but it gives a great advantage in starting har- derable frost well into their develop- ment. Of the tender plants usually sown in a hotbed are the tomatoes, eggplants and peppers. Cabbages and celery are examples of hardier vegetables, while a'l of the hardy annuals which transplant readily may be in shape to set into blooming quarters, bringing their first flowering in late May and early | Juhe instead of waiting the usual course of development until July, The hotbed also will give earliest crops o fradishes and lettuce by planting these hardy vegetables in the hotbed In March and allowing them to develop there until usable. This, however, is the least important of the uses of the home garden frame. The hotbed, in addition to provid- ing bottom heat, the great stimulus to germination and growth, gives an- other ideal condition, a more even temperature and control of moisture. In the confined spaces of the hotbed, the plants are protected from dry- ing, cutting winds al with the exercise of a little care equable con- dition, of moisture are readily main- tained and there is no check in growth for lack of seasomable show-| ers such as sometimes occur, as last year in the Middle West when an unusual April drought played havoe with gardens. : 'When tillage begins, other arts follow.
