ALWAYS BE REGULAR. 4 Polst Is Hoar Feedlna U hose Important-,-a t as Well tasteratood'ss It sboald Be. To be most snecessful at raising bogs we should feed regularly. Dot on? day early io the morning and the next SSStJf iii the middle of the forenoon. N matter how man times a day nor what we feed, let it beat the same hours every day. It is natural for a hog to rest at night time, and digestion and assimilation of food will go on better if they are fed regularly and heforedark. There are a great tunny farmers who think "a hog ;s a hog" ant! of lin ! eonsemient-e as far a profit is concerned, hence they let him "root hog or die. i. ml if he di es r.ot do as w ell as they e.-eet. or as well as the hi gof their neigMx rs. they blame the breed or the nr.c who sold them the pig'. never taking into consideration that, if they had giien the hog a hhow. fed him with some regularity and on such food as would have kept Ms gjpi tem in good condition, he would have been a profitable animal. As a hog grows older and heavier, it retpiires not only more food to make a pound of gain, but more to sustain the weight that it already has. So. if not gaining, jou would better get them off y,nr bands as soon as possihle. In feeding hog the important point is to gite just enough nnd no more. This soinet inns may Ik- a little difficult to do. What is eaten up clean, with Indication that, if more were given, it would be oaten, is the test of-what ia just the right quantity. A little careful Observation will soon make the test easily understood. Midland Farmer. CONVENIENT HOG CHUTE. ta Metet All Variastissa la Helabt of Wagss.

A Uussian apple, the "yellow transparent," promises to supersede the "early hardest" which has so long beea p pil ar in the middle west. The bacilli which grow tin the ro ?s of clover plants, ami have t he power of abstracting nitrogen from the air, account for the increased fertility of fields after a crop of cloier has beea grown on them. The potato planter of to-day would make a farm r of a generation ago ait up a ml rub his ryes. It requires that Ike potatoes lc supplied, but will do all the rest of its own initiative. It picks the po-ato up and looks it over or seems to--cuts it into ha it es. quarters or any desired number of parts, separat s the ey s and removes tin Seed ends.

FROM THE SCRAP-HEAP. Th army of C0.0O0 men costs the people les than $1 per capita per annum. Within half an hour of the death of one of a pair of twin boys, at Leicester, Knglund, the other one died -through, the doctor said, a certain curious sympathy which exists between twins. The Venus de Mil has been in the Louvre since 1 2 1. when it vvas presented to Uiiiis XVIII by the French ambassador at Constantinople. He obtained it from some peasants, who found it on their farm in the island of Mi los. Few persons looking at (ien.

He and Kit rh ugh Iee fought as youngsters untler ('apt. Karl Van Horn against the savatre Comanches on the plains of Texas. IN THE SUPERLATIVE DEGREE. The eye is most sensitive to green colors. The poplar is the most rapid grower amor.g Knglis.h trees, and the yew the slowtat. The smallest tree in the world is the Orecn'nm! birch. Its height is lesa than three inches, yet it covers a radius of from two to three feet. A Paris shoe dealer is the authority for the statt ment that Madrid ladies have the smallest feet, while the women of Sweden haie the most shapely ones. The most delicate and expensive of all cas is the Siamese. This is called the royal cat. because it has long been bred in the family of the king of Jcljni. It is a short-haired cat, which looks curiously like a dog. Its coat i. pugdog sokes, sod very short, firm and silky, more like a dog's than a cat's. It has black paws and nose, and a kink n its tail. IN DISTANT PLACES. Sheep are used as beasts of burden in India and Persia. New Zealand farmers send frozen cream to Knglaud. where it is churned Into butter. Bells are never u- d in Mahomedan mosques, for the Moslem, believe that their sound conjures up il spirits.

HON. DAN. A. GROSVENOR, OF THE FAMOUS OHIO FAMILY. Hon. Dan. A. Grosvenor, Deputy Auditor for tsM War Department, in a letter written from Washington, D. C, says,: "Allow me to express my gratitude to you tor the benefit derived from one bottle ot Peruna. One week has brought wonderful changes and I am now as well as ever. Besides being one ot tbe very best spring tonics It Is an excellent catarrh remedy." DAS. A. OROSVENOR.

John Williams, County Commissioner.of 517 W?st Second street, Duluth, Minn., says the following in regard to Peruna : "As a remedy for catarrh I can cheerfully recommend Peruna.

One of the essentials of the happy homes of to-day It a fund of Information as to rieht living and the best methods of promoting health and happiness. With proper knowledge, each hour of recreation, of enjoyment end of effort may be made to contribute to that end and are of not lesa value than the using of the most wholesome foods and the selecting of the best medicinal agents when needed. With the well-informed, medicinal agents are nsed only when nature needs assistance and while the importance of cleansing the system effectually, when bilious or constipated, has long been known, yet until within recent years it was necessary to resort to oils, salts, extracts of roots, barks and other cathartics which were found to be objectionable and to call for constantly Increased quantities. Then physicians having learned that the most excellent laxative and carminative principles were to be found in certain plants, principally in the leaves, the California Fig Syrup Co. discovered a method of obtaining such principles in their purest condition and of resenting them with pleasant and refreshing liquids in the form

most acceptable to the system and the remedy became known as Syrup of Figs as fgs were used, with the plants, in making it, because of their agreeable taste. This excellent remedy is now rapidly coming into universal use as the beat of family laxatives, because it is simple and wholesome and cleanses and sweetens the system effectually without disturbing the natural functions and without unpleasant after effects and its use may be discontinued when it is no longer required. All who would enjoy good health and its blessings should remember that it is the one remedy which physicians end parents well-informed approve and recommend and use and which they and their little ones alike enjoy, because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its beneficial effects. Syrup of Figs is for sale by all reliable druggists, at the regular price of fifty cents per bottle, in original packages only, having the name of the remedy Syrup of Figs and the foil name of the CompanyCalifornia Fig Syrup Co. printed on tbe front of every package.

Mrs. Elmer Fleming, orator of Res Voir Council No. 16S, North western Legion of Honor, of Minneapolis, Minn., writes from '2535 Polk street, N. K :

" 1 have been troubled all my life with catarrh in my head. 1 took Peruna for about three months, and now think I am pe rman en 1 1 y cured. I believe that for catarrh in all its forms Peruna is the medicine of the age. It cures when all other airs Elmer Flemlag;, Minneapolis. Minn remeslies fail. 1 can heartily recommend Peruna aa a catarrh remedy. " Mrs. Elmer Fleming. Treat Catarrh la Sprts. The spring is tbe time to treat catarrh. Cold, wet winter weather often retards a cure of catarrh. If a course of Peruna is taken during the early spring months the cure will be prompt and permanent. There can be no failures if Peruna la taken intelligently during the favorable weather of spring. Asa systemic catarrh remedy Peruna eradicates catarrh from the system wherever it may be located. It eure catarrh of ti t- stomach or bowels with the same certainty as catarrh of the htvad. If you do not derive prompt and sat b factory results from the use of Peruna, v rit e at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis.
