It’s done by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, which purifies and enriches the blood, and through it oleanses and renews the whole system. ,‘Even Lung-scrofula (known as Pulmonary Consumption) yields to it, if taken in time and given a fair trial. It's guaranteed to benefit or cure, in every case, or money paid for it is refunded. Only a medicine that does what is claimed for it, could be sold on such terms. No other medicine, besides the “ Discovery ” has undertaken it. So positively certain is it in its curative effects as to warrant its makers in selling it, as they are doing, through druggists, on trial! It’s especially potent in curing Tetter, Salt-rheum, Eczema, Erysipelas, Boils, Carbuncles, Sore Eyes, Goitre, or Thick Neck, and Enlarged Glands, Tumors and Swellings. Great Eating Ulcers rapidly heal under its benign influence. SHILOH’S CONSUMPTION CURE. The success of this Great Cough Cure is without a parallel in the history of medicine. All druggists are authorized to sell it on a positive guarantee, a test that no other cure can successfully stand. That it may become known, the Proprietors, at an enormous exjjense, are placing a Sample Bottle Free into every home in the United States and Canada. If you have a Cough, Sore Throat, or Bronchitis, use it, for it will cure you. If your child has the Croup, or Whooping Cough, use it promptly, and relief is stire.

If we should be so unfortunate as to sow foul seed, 1 find it the best way to go through the field and pull up the rye and cockle, which is much better than to leave it m the wheat to ripen. We can get rid of it very easy in this way, by going through the field every six or eight weeks. I think it a very good plan to take the bulletins put out by the State Experimental Stations as a guide in choosing seed wheat, and select the kind that does the best by them for a number of years and give it a thorough test As regards selecting and fitting ground for the seed, I almost always sow after oats, instead of summer fallow, for the reason that two crops pay better than one; or take a clover sod or sow after corn. But sowing after corn makes it rather late; yet sometimes we get a very good crop in this way, I plow the land as soon as I can get the oats off, or if clover, as soon as second crop is large enough for best results, so as to let the land get well packed down before sowing. I find that land plowed early, say last of July or first of August, is in better condition for wheat than that plowed just before sowing. Land plowed early needs to be thoroughly harrowed, so as to get a good, mellow sped-bed; but not too deep, two or three iAches is deep enough. My wheat does the best where it follows oats, which in their turn followed corn, which had been well covered with stable manure before planting. I like to sow wheat here in Northern Ohio, from the Bth to the 15th of September, when everything is favorable. From two to three hundred pounds ot phosphate should be used. I would use the same amount even if sown after clover, unless I had barn-yard manure to cover the land, for I do not depend on the clover to insure a first-class crop. I sowed a piece of land to wheat as an experiment, sowing one and one-balf bushels to the acre one way and then cross sowing with the same amount the other way, putting on 200 pounds of phosphate to the acre each way. It did the best of any wheat that I ever raised. It yielded at the rate of forty-four bushels to the acre. I let my wheat get middling ripe before harvesting, so as to be able to draw it into the barn soon after cutting, and not run the risk of “catching” weather. I do not like to stack wheat, on account of the risk one runs of getting it injured by wet weather, but rather put the wheat in the barn and leave the hay out in stacks until after threshing. After the grain is threshed then hay may be drawn in. Wheat should not be threshed until after it sweats in the mow, so as not to sweat In the bin and leave the grain j musty. We should be very careful to i get the fields well drained, either by sur-; face or underdrainage, for we cannot! expect to raise any wheat where the [ ground is saturated with water. Swinging Farm Gate. The accompanying sketch represents ' a swing gate, made of boards six inches wide afid of whatever length is desired. The cross pieces on back end are 2x6inch stuff. Two of them, with the side boards, form a kind of square tube around the post, closed at the upper end ' by a piece of 2-inch plank, six inches j square. This rests and turns upon the i slightly rounded end of Dost. The box • in back is for ballast. The latch can be I worked with spring, or in any other convenient way.—[Practical Farmer. LIVE STOCK. SOU tor Sheep. The quality of the soil is an element to be considered more or less with all domestic animals, Thus, for instance, black hogs are thought to be better adapted to low. rich, alluvial Jands or prairies, while white hogs afe better suited for light upland soils./ The thin soil of the Western Reserve, \ says the Sheep Breeder, do for the manufacture of cheese, but for butter, the deem, strong prairies about Elgin, 111., are preferred. On the other hand, this butter soil makes coarse, inferior wool, while the more sterile lands of Northern Ohio/ where it is so often only two or three inches down to hard-pan, yield a superior fleece. But the purest staple of all is grown on the well-drained hillsides of the Appalachian range, where the water is pure and the grass is sweet and tender. So also these hill and mountain ranges are best for small breeds of sheep, such as the Merino and the Southdown or the Welsh Mountain breed or the Cheviot The heavy Lincoln or the Cotswold or the Shropshire require, or at least do better, on lauds which are more level and fertile. About the Hog. Know when the sow is to farrow. Keep large and small hogs separate. The foundation for pig growth should be grass. It is what a hog digests and assimilates that benefits. The best is always the cheapest in the end in breeding. The first hundred pounds put on the pig is the cheapest. A boar or sow fed on corn will hardly prove a good breeder. Do not complain of-cheap prices when you raise cheap hogs. A good ham, short nose and legs is a good type for a brood sow. The best way of feeding small pigs is to give a small quantity frequently. , Failing to clean out properly often makes the hog have a source of disease. When hogs cost more than they will sell for, there is no good in raising them. I Breed only from mature animals and never from an animal out of a show herd. When a hog is ready for the butcher it is a waste of time and feed to keep it any longer. Xfro more food ia fed than to supply

waste tn the young -animal the food is thrown away. Four pounds of corn or twelve quarts of skimmilk will make one pound of growth in a hog. The hog that oan be made to weigh 200 pounds in the shortest time ia the most profitable. Pigs as a rule should be weaned when they are eight weeks old. They should be well fed, however., THE POULTRY-YARD. Do Bggs Pay at Low Prices? When eggs are as low as ten cents a dozen, do they pay? This is a question that often comes up for discussion. In olden ti-.nes, before the railroads had reached all points, our ancestors were content with six cents per dozen for eggs. Whether eggs pay or not depends on how much they cost. We do not believe that a farmer should feed bis hens at all in the summer season, if they have a range. Allow a flock to have access to the stubble of the wheat field, or where grass is plentiful, and they will secure all the food required and more than they need, and of a variety. When insects, grass and waste grain can be converted into eggs by the hens, there is simply a saving of that which might otherwise be wasted. We are partial to the active and industrious hen. She will cost her owner nothing in summer, aud the eggs can be sold low and yet give a profit The hen needs no feed for five months in the year, and fifty pounds of grain will carry her over the cold season, at which time eggs are high. In warm climates one half the grain only is needed. The true way to keep fowls is to allow them to forage in an orchard. Poultry and fruit make an excellent combination.—['Farm and Fireside. A PUt of Kyn. As soon as the fall comes lay off a plot for rye, to be used as green food for poultry after other green food has ceased to grow. It is not necessary to turn the hens on the rye as i. may be cut and fed to them, and it will also provide green food early in the spring, before anything else in the shape of green food puts in an appearance. Use plenty of seed, as the thicker the rye the better. Only a small plct will answer well. —[Farm aud Fireside. Testa. A good egg will sink in water. Stale eggs are glassy and smooth of shell. A fresh egg has a lime-like surface to. its shell. — The boiled eggs which adhere to the shell are fresh laid. After an egg has laid a day or more the shell comes off easily when boiled. Thin shells are caused by a lack of gravel etc., among the hens laying eggs. Eggs which have been packed in lime look stained, and show the action of the lime on the surface. If au egg is clean and golden in appearance when held to the light it is good; if dark or spotted, it is bad. The badness ot an egg .can sometimes be told by shaking near the holder’s ear, but the test is a dangerous oue. Many devices have been tested to keep eggs fresh, but the less time an egg is kept, the better tor the egg and the one that eats it. THE DAIRY. More Cows on Dess Acres. As land rises in price in the more thickly settled portions of the country, dairymen have to adopt new methods in keeping cows, or else move on to cheaper land. Most of them do not pasture theiV cows as formerly but feed them in summer as well as in winter. By soiling cattle, three times as many may be kept on the same number of acres as to let them pasture over it Rye is good for an early soiling crop, then clover, oats, corn, prickey comfroy and other crops may be used in their season. In early spring, cows may be turned out for awhile while I the grass is fresh, but they should be ; brought up and have additional feed I when it gets tough and scarce. Also in | the fall, when the rains have started the I grass they may be pastured again for i awhile. Cows should not be allowed to ' shrink any in their milk before begln- ; ning to soil them, but the flow should be kept up to the fullest amount as long as possible. The silo comes in here as a great factor, for many crops can be ensilaged and fed at auy time of the year. —[Farm and Home. Apples lor Milch Cows. It is remembered when it was common to denounce the feeding of oats to milch ! cows lest it would dry up the milk, j Chemistry has settled this doubt, added to common sense. There is much excellent nutriment in apples. But alone, I apples are aot a perfect food. Therej fore, apples should be fed with meals, ' hay, and grain. Apples will produce a ! plentiful supply of thin milk, but being i deficient in fat require albuminoids and fats or starch to make rich milk and much butter. Apples cooked and raw, are an excellent adjunct to cattle foods and fodders. There is nothing so greedily sought for as apples by milch cows. As in the human subject so in animals, whatever is grateful to the taste is generally healthful and desirable food. Persons, especially young ones, thrive on apples, pears, peaches, grapes, and other fruits. Fruit is both grateful and healthful. Cooked apples with wheat-bran slop Is a special stimulant to |he flow of milk. To this add a handful of flaxseed meal and one of pea-meal, and good rich milk and fine flavored butter will be sure to be produced. Cows unaccustomed to apples if fed too freely, especially if the apples are very sour, might have colic. Cooked corn meal, ground oats and apples make a utost admirable ration for milk and butter, and health. Too few roots and too few apples are fed to cows. —[American Agriculturist. THE HOUSEHOLD. A Cold Box in a Well. Our grandmothers thought it impossible to make good butter during the hot weather of late summer, and found the cause of the failure in the baneful influence of the Dog Days. But it was proved long ago that good butter can be produced during this season. Keeping it good and solid seems to be the ditlleulty. Where a constant stream of cold spring 8 A —- t'hT FLOOR ABOVE THE WELL. water can be made to flow through a trough arranged for the purpose, perfection is attained. Few can have this, and must substitute a trough through

which water Is pumped daily. In hot weather the water soon becomes warm and of little use. A Mr. B. has adopted a plan which secures an even temperature of about 60 degrees. His well is an ordinary dug one,several feet in diameter and walled up with stone. Butter, Igr-rM w® IF r WELL BOX AND WINDLASS, cream, etc., are placed in a box and lowered in it nearly to the water. The accompanying drawings give a pretty clear idea of the necessary apparatus.— [Rural New Yorker. | Domestic Hints. The square after-dinner coffee cups are not as popular as they were. Zinc is best cleaned with hot soapy water, then polished with kerosene. Fairy lamps in crystal and metal combinations make desirable illuminations. Dainty invalid sets are provided with china trays, decorated with flowers or baby faces. Grape scissors are now quite generally used to manage the large bunches of this most healthful fruit Inexpensive hangings may be made of pale lemon or amber-colored muslins with borders outlined with bright embroidery silks. For a simple tea, jam sandwiches, thin, dainty, and devoid of crust, plied lightly on a plate, with spread napkin, are a relished sweet , A pleasant addition to the bath is the extract of pine needles. This comes also in the form of a soap pungent with the odor of thejbalsam forests. It is said that milk is made especially nutritious if it is put in a jar and stood in a moderately hot oven for eight or ten hours. It is then called “baked milk,” and has become thick and creamy. To remove mildew from cloth: Put a teaspoonful of chloride of lime into a quart of water, strain it twice, then dip the mildewed places in this weak solution; lay in the sun. If the mildew has not disappeared when dry, repeat. Oatmeal is particularly valuable as a food. It contains more nitrogen than any other cereal, with a very large percentage of starch and sugar. It contains more than 90 per cent, of nutriment The coarsely vround meal is best Never wash raspberries unless it must be done, and then before they are hulled. Use a large bowl full of water and put a few berries in at a time; stir them a little with the hands until clean, then skim them out and hull them at once. Much handling injures fruit and takes away its freshness and flavor. THE KITCHEN. Some Kltehen Recipe*. Yeast.—Three quarts of water, six hops, four large potatoes, two tablespoonfuls of sugar; mash the potatoes and put it aside until it is milk warm, then add the sugar and yeast; let it stand until light; it will foam like the white of an egg; then bottle and cork tight. Blackberry Syrup. r—Take of the juice two quarts, one pound loaf sugar, one-half ounce nutmeg, one-half ounce cinnamon, one-quarter ounce allspice. Boil all together a sfiort time and when cold add a pint of brandy. Raspberry Vinegar.—Take two quarts of vinegar and add to it two quarts of raspberries each day for three days. Then strain it through a sieve or cream bag. To each pint of juice add a pound of sugar; boil it and when quite cold bottle and cork tightly. Beef Tea.—To one pound of beef, chopped line, put a pint of cold water, let soak one hour; then put it ou the tire, let come to a boiling point; theu remove from the stove for one hour; then return to the fire again and boil down to onehalf'pint. Strain through a colander and add a little salt. Lemon Cake.—One and one-half cups sugar, one-half cup butter, stir them to a cream. Three eggs, whites and yolks beaten separately, one-half cup sweet milk, one and one-half teaspoons baking ; powder, two small cups flour, grated rind i aud part of.sthe juice of one lemon. ■ Lemon Butter.—Take three lemons I and grate the rind, pulp, and all that I can be grated; three well beaten eggs, I one-half pound sugar and a piece of i butter the size of a walnut; beat all to-1 gether and cook between ten and fifteen ! minutes, stirring all the time to prevent burning. Apple Pudding.—Pare, quarter and core six tart apples. Put them in a porcelain-lined kettle. Add half a pint of water and the grated rind of one orange and six ounces of sugar, cover the kettle and simmer continually, until Jhe apples are reduced about one-half. Stir frequently to prevent scorching. When clear and thoroughly done, turn them into a dish and put them away until very cold. Then beat the whites of six eggs to a stiff froth. Add four ounces of powdered sugar. Beat again, until white and dry. Pour this over the apples, dust thickly with chopped almond. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Wrap a piece of brown paper around the dish, aud place in oven until It is a golden blown. Serve cold with cream. He was about to take a "Woodward avenue oar when he changed his mind aud waited for a man coming up the street. He looked stern and solemn and unrelenting, and there was ice in his mouth as he replied: “Yes, fine day enough.

■Hiltons in Slgkt, There’s millions in it—millions of I solid, solid gold and silver; not the ' figment—so to speak—of the thriftless visionary, but the tangible lucre that makes men opulent, that makes nations powerful, that moves all that is movable by human agencies in the universe. There’s millions in it—in the vault that underlies the sub-treasury budding. The doors are opened; the expectant visitor takes his hand from over his eyes; he peers in, enters, and Aladdin's cave is changed into the store room of a retail grist-mill. He sees nothing but a solid mass of little canvas sacks, piled from floor to ceiling, homely as a grocery overstocked with breadstuff’s. This is the principal vault, and each of these little sacks contains 1,000 silver dollars. There is no gold here. The vault is thirty-six feet long, seventeen feet wide and eight and a half feethigh, yet it holds only 13,000,000 of silver dollars. The gold vaults are about as prosy, the money being sacked and piled in the same manner, each sack containing $20,000. It is asked, Where does all this money come from? The answer is that the sub-treasury—this mean, little, inadequate building—is the receptacle for the entire revenue of the Government from the Pacific coast ■w est of the Rocky mountains; from British Columbia to Mexico. The business of last year amounted in round numbers to $38,000,000. Naturally it may be asked, why is all this money hoarded instead of being out in circulation? Paradoxical as it may seem, a great deal of it is in circulation. To all intents and purposes it is passing from hand to hand every day, doing its part in the great game of financial shuttlecock and battledoor. It is represented by silver and gold certificates—a form much more convenient for business purposes, while the coin itself is stored in the vaults, away from the depreciating effects of abrasion, and from loss by other causes. A majority of the twenty-dollar gold pieces in circulation have lost so much by abrasion that they fall below the standard weight. There are in the sub-treasury over 7,000 half-dollars that have become depreciated simply by ordinary abrasion while in cireula- . tion. This depreciation sometimes amounts to as much as twenty-seven dollars on a thousand. Gold being a softer metal suffers more from tho same treatment. Hence, for this reason, and also because they save time and trouble in handling, and are more convenient to carry, gold certificates are fast growing in favor. Beside there is an advantage to the Government in issuing silver and gold certificates.—San Francisco Call. Aluminum Aiutur. J. W. Hanson, a jeweler in St Panl, Minn., and foriuerly a resident of Cincinnati, is having an electric motor made . out of aluminum by a Sixth street model making firm. It will be the first motor ever made of this new metal. It is gotten out on an entirely new design, occupies a small space, and is very light, yet accomplishes as much as an ordinary motor. Thus an ordinary motor may weigh 100 pounds or more, yet this weighing twenty or thirty, being a quarter less than the ordinary, possesses great advantage in lightness. A boy can wa>k vff with it. Help but Don’t Coerce. To help nature in its efforts to throw off the trammels of disease is, of course, the legitimate method of xnedicatiou. This method is, unfortunately, too often diverged from and help perveited into coercion. Drastic, excessive purging is undoubtedly the most frequent form of coercion of this sort. The bowels are forced, literally wrenched into ac ion. Os course, this is accompanied with much griping paiu, aud succeeded by exhaustion, which leaves the organs I of evacuation in a state incompatible with sub- 1 sequent regularity and activity.

“August Flower” I had been troubled five month! with Dyspepsia. The doctors told me it was chronic. I had a fullness after eating and a heavy load in the pit of my stomach. I suffered frequently from a Water Brash of clear matter. Sometimes a deathly Sick* ness at the Stomach would overtake me. Then again I would have the terrible pains of Wind Colic. At # such times I would try to belch and could not. I was working then for Thomas McHenry, Druggist, Cor. Irwin and Western Ave., Allegheny City, Pa., in whose employ I had been for seven years. Finally I used August Flower, and after using just one bottle for two weeks, was entirely relieved of all the trouble. I can now eat things I dared not touch before. I would like to refer you to Mr. McHenry, for whom I worked, who knows all about my condition, and from whom I bought the medicine. I live with my wife and family at 39 James St., Allegheny City, Pa.
