An IntreaUng and successful Ameri ran farmer, Lew Palmer, of Staveley, A)ta.( passed through tbe city today. Mr Palmer came from Dlltttfe Minn., Just tea year afco, and brought with him four cows and threo horses and that was his all. He liomesteaded In the fitareley district, and today has 480 acres of land. $3,000 worth of implements, 34 Percheron horses, made $1.0(0 out of hoRa last year, raised 7.000 bushels of wheat, 6,000 bushels of oats, 12 acres of potatoes, and 18 tons of onions. His farm and stock is worth $'0,000, and he made It all in ten yea's. Exchange .--Advertisement. For Real Speeding. "Pop," said Inquisitive Ignatz, "how fast can a horse go?" "Well," replied father, "a mile in two minutes and four seconds is considered good speed. Why du you ask0" "Oh. I was just thinking." replied Ignatz, "what a shame it was that Paul Kevere.

Terre Hill, Pa. 44 Kindly permit me to give you my testimonial in favor of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. When I first began taking it I was suffering from female troubles for some time and had almost all kinds of aches pains in lower part of back and in sides, and pressing down pains. I could not sleep and had no appetite. Since I have taken Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound the aches and pains are all gone and I feel like a new woman. I cannot praise your medicine too highly' Mr3. Augustus Lyon, Terre Hill, Pa. It is true that nature and a woman's Vor iias produced the grandest remedy for woman's ills that the world has ever 1 nown. From the roots and herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham, forty years tgo, gave to womankind a remedy for their peculiar ills which has proved more efficacious than any other combination of drugs ever compounded, and today Lydia E. Pinkham '9 Vegetable Compound is recognized from coast to coast as the standard remedy for woman's ills, Tü the Pinkham Lalwratory at Lynn, Mass., are files containing hundreds of thousands of letters from women seeking health many of them openly state over their own signatures that they have regained their health by taking Lydia F. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; and in some cases that it has saved them from surgical operations. Constipation Vanishes Forever Prompt Relief Permanent Cure CARTER'S LITTLE LIVER PILLS never fail.

SOME CHICK DISEASES

HEAD LICE IN PARTICULAR ARE SOURCE OF MUCH TROUBLE. Dust Hen With Insect Powder, Spray Coooa With Disinfectant and Rub Ointment on Chick's Head and Under Wings. Lice, head lice In particular, while not a disease in themselves, are a fer-; tile source of trouble and disease. They are generally found where the chicks are hatched by hens, the little fellows appearing droopy, pale and with some diarrhea, due to weakness. Dust the hen with a good lice killer, spray the coops with disinfectant and rub a little lice ointment on the chick's head, under the wings and around the vent. 1 W'hile not so prevalent as sometimes supposed, "white diarrhea" is a real menace, and here prevention is the best remedy. Breed from strong, healthy parent stock and avoid the long, scrawny, crow headed hen, for disease is transmitted through the egg. Keep the incubator dark, feed good nourishing food, separate suspected chicks at once and disinfect thoroughly. If trouble is expected use a white diarrhea remedy in the drinking water for the first ten days. It wiil save many chicks, but will not cure the disease or save badly infected ones. Bowel trouble, due to improper feeding, is often mistaken for white diarrhea. Don't feed chicks until 48 hours old, but give fine grit and fresh water from tho start. Let the first feed be finely crumbled boiled egg, breadcrumbs or a prepared baby chick food, given dry, or moistened with sweet or sour milk. Do not overfeed, but feed often. Later give a little bit of fine grains, such as pinhead oats, cracked wheat or chick size cracked corn, scattered in the litter to induce exercise. Beef scrap should not be given until chicks are at least a week old. Scald the drinking vessels frequently, give plenty of greens after the first five days and keep the chicks exercising and there will never be any bowel trouble among the birds. Leg weakness frequently comes from lack of exercise. Chicks appear healthy, have good appetites, are bright, but have no use of their legs. Give them every opportunity to exercise, but do not all)v them to become chilled. Bottom heat in a brooder will cause this trouble. The heat should always descend on a chick's back, never upward. Lack of bono forming materials in the food, such as bone or shell meal, also causes leg weakness, and every properly compounded chick food contains these ingredients, so, if it doesn't, either add them or get one that does. To sum all up, if vigorous, quick growing chicks are wanted breed from only the strongest and best of stock, disinfect freely, clean up regularly, feed the best of food, give lots of good fresh water and use common. sense. ATTACHMENT ON FARM GATE Discarded Plow Wheel and Wooden Axle With Narrow Strip of Board Makes Handy Arrangement. There are a great many djUerent kinds of gates used on farms throughout the country, some simple and others complicated. The Farm and Homo describes and illustrates one as arranged by Leslie Iteattie of New York as follows: I take an old plow wheel, fit a wooden axle to it, and bolt it to the bottom corner of the gate. Then I take a narrow strip of board six inches longer Easy Gate to Open. than height of gate, and to the bottom end bolt a short piece which makes it T-hape. This is bolted to the gate as shown in the illustration, and serves as a lock, for the short piece goes between the spokes in the wheel and holds the gate either open or closed. A child can easily open a heavy gate that has this attachment. REMEDY FOR THE WOCDCHUCK Among Other Methods cf Extermination Suggested is That of a Man With a Good Rifle. (Ky M. r". WILLIAMS. Mm:.. ; 1.) The woodchuek, or ' ground hog" is I so destructive to gardens in some counties in this section, that a few remedial measures may be of interest. White muslin strips may be tit d to the pea vine supports about a foot above the round, at int. rals of about a foot in the row, to keep the animal away. Cotton or oakum may be wrapped around a stone soaked in carbon bi-sulphid. and th I mass rolled into the lielf as far a: possible. In order that the fei may have th fullest possible effect, close the hole as tightly as possibl". A good marksman with a rifle, stationed where he can secure a good view of the infested hVld, may prove effective. Hlasting powder and a long fuse are sometimes 'ised and uj is tho steel trap.

Power for an Emery Stone May Be Obtained by Using Discarded Parts of Velocipede. An old bicycle may be used to furnish power for an emery stone. It can be rigged up on the frame of an ol grindstone, or something simllar.

VALUE OF PLOW AND HARROW In Purchasing Implements for the Farm Their Construction Should Be Carefully Studied. (By R. G. WEATHERSTOXi:.) The value of a plow or other farm implement consists of its doing tho thing we want it to do. The plow with a light draft simply turns and cuts the furrow with the least resistance, resulting in very smooth work to look upon, but its effect upon the soil is not nearly so valuable as that of the plow that runs harder and gives more resistance to the soil and breaks it up finer. The plow that has a harder draft goes through the soil and not only breaks it up and turns a furrow, but in the process it grinds and pulverizes it into smaller particles. The more thoroughly the soil is broken up, the more the plant food is made available and plant food is what wo are after. In purchasing plows we want to study their construction with this in mind. The same applies to the selection of the harrow. The harrow that has an easy draft cannot do as good work as one that moves more soil and runs deeper. A harrow should do smooth work and incorporate the vegetable mr.tter and fertilizers with the soil in a uniform manner. The function of the harrow is to still further reduce and refine soil particles, because in every process of refinement we are getting at the plant food which is still so abundant in our soil. On the average farm where there are various types of soil, a disk harrow, a spring tooth harrow and a smoothing harrow are practical necessities. It is worse than folly for farmers to spend for commercial fertilizers or chemical plant foods until they have first made use of that which is so plentiful in their own soil at the present time. I am a firm friend of fertilizers but I do not believe in buying them until we have made use of every method of getting at the plant food already contained in our soils. GROWING RUSSIAN CABBAGE Conspicuous Because !t Requires Two Weeks' Less Time to Mature Than Other Varieties. Among the maturing varieties of cabbage the Volga, a comparativelynew sort in America, is conspicuous because it requires about two weeks' less time than other varieties of this class to mature, says Farm and Fireside. Concerning it the late C. L. Allen, whose book on cabbage, cauliflower and allied plants is the acknowledged authority, writes: "This new Russian variety is of the greatest uciformity. In a field of several acres frequently not a single plant shows any variation from a true and valua ble type. In some respects it is a vegetable wonder, as the heads are about equal in size and shape, weighmg from 12 to 15 pounds each, round as a ball, the largest measuring about 12 Inches in diameter either way. Unlike most varieties, the heads are periectly solid, and the stem doe not run up into the head; the flesh is exceedingly linn, tender and white. In respect to hardiness, we have never seen a type which would favorably compare." Feed Calves in Stanchions. Calves should be fed in a stanchion so constructed as to prevent them from suolfTng each Others' ears aft r they have drunk their nilk. The feeding of grain by placing a little before t!i'ni after oer meal of milk will also jlscourage the desire to suck the ears of the calf in the next stanchion. Proper Pruning. When pruning, have a reason for every cut made and cut close to thr I limb or trunk. Leave no stube.

SCALP ITCHED AND BURNED 833 South Scioto St., Circleville, Ohio. "My little girl's trouble first Btarted on her head in a bunch of little pimples full of yellow-looking matter and they would spread in large places. In a short time they would open. Her scalp was awfully red and inflamed and the burning and itching were so intense that she would scratch and rub till it would leave ugly sores. The sores also appeared on her body, and her clothing irritated them - so that I had to put real soft cloth next to her body. She would lie awake of nights and was very worrisome. At times she was tortured with itching and burning. "I tried different remedies with no benefit for months. I had given up all hope of her ever getting rid of it, then I concluded to try Cuticura Soap and Ointment. The second application gave relief. In a short time she was entirely cured." (Signed) Mrg.
