We frequently hear the ques- tion asked as to how long it takes various seeds to germinate. Monday, July 23, about nine a. m., the Chronicle editor planted white globe, yellow globe, strap leaved and flat Dutch turnips in his garden. The ground was in good season, freshly plowed and warm. We planted in the drill, covered lightly and firmed the seed in the ground by treading on them. Thursday morning, July 26, at 6 a. m., we examined the planting and found almost a perfect stand of turnips already showing-less than three days from time of planting. L R. & N. to Put on Double Dai!y Service to.New Orleans. On account or the increased passenger traffic expected with the opening of the cantonment at Alexandria, the L. R. & N. management announces that it will put on a double daily service from Shreveport to New Orleans, effective about August 5. The day trains are to leave Shreve- port and New Orleans at 7 a. m. and arrive at their respective designations about 8:40 p. m. This service will be in addition to the 'night service now main- tained. Are You One of Them? There are a great many people whe, would be very much benefited by tak- ing Chamberlain's Tablets for a weak or disordered stomach. Are you one of them? Mrs. M. R. Searl, Baldwins- ville, N. Y., relates her experience in the use of trhese tablets: "1 bad a bad spell with my stomach about six months ago, and was troubled for two or three weeks with gas and severe pains in the pit of my stomach. Our druggist advised me to take Chamber- lain s Tablets. I took a bottle home and the first dose relieved me wonder- fuly, and 1 kept on taking them until I was cured." These tablets do not relieve pain, but after the pain has been relieved may prevent its recur- rence.

Are You One of Them?There are a great many people whe,

would be very much benefited by tak-ing Chamberlain's Tablets for a weakor disordered stomach. Are you oneof them? Mrs. M. R. Searl, Baldwins-ville, N. Y., relates her experience inthe use of trhese tablets: "1 bad a badspell with my stomach about sixmonths ago, and was troubled for twoor three weeks with gas and severepains in the pit of my stomach. Ourdruggist advised me to take Chamber-lain s Tablets. I took a bottle homeand the first dose relieved me wonder-fuly, and 1 kept on taking them untilI was cured." These tablets do notrelieve pain, but after the pain hasbeen relieved may prevent its recur-rence.
