WOMAN WOULD NOT GIVE UP Though Sick and Suffering; At Last Found Help in Lydia EL Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

Eichmond, Pa. " When I started taking Lydia E. Pinkhsm'g Vegetable Compound I was in a dreadfully rundown state of health, had interna1 troubles, and was so extremely nervous and prostrated that if I had given in to my feelings I would have been in bed. As it was I had hardly strength at times to be on my feet and what I did do was by a great effort. I could not sleep at night and of course felt very bad in the morning, and had a steady headache. c 'After taking the second bottle I noticed that the headache was not so bad, I rested better, and my nerves were stronger. I continued its use until it made a new woman of me, and now I can hardly realize that I am able to do bo much as I do. Whenever I know any woman in need of n good medicine I highly praise Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound." Mrs. Frank Clark, 3146 N.

LIKE THE DUMDUM"

Sharp-Pointed Bullet May Make Fearful Wound. Range at Which Projectile Is Ffred ' and Age of the Man Hit Are Factors jn Amount of Damage Done. American army surgeons are convinced that under normal conditions all modern bullets are more humane than those formerly used, in spite of the fact that they travel at higher speed and have a far wider range. They are so sharp pointed that when they strike the soft tissues alone they mate clean-cut, narrow wounds which heal very quickly. When, however, they take a sidewise twist, or develop irregular, jagged edges through previously striking or glancing off some hard object, they have an explosive effect which produces just such terrible wounds as the "dumdum." These effects are most liable to occur in vital organs inclosed in resisting bony walls, like the brain or heart, and are nearly always fatal. The rar.ge at which bullets are fired and the ages of the men they hit have been found to have a marked influence The Diagram Shows How the Base of a Bullet Spins Like a Top in a Constantly Increasing Circumference. This Is Why It Often Strikes Sidewise and Mutilates Like a Dumdum. on the character of the wounds they make. The bones of younger men usually have a great amount of animal matter, consequently are iess brittle than those of older men. The less resistance met by the bullet in the comparatively softer bones, at short ranges, permits the passage of the bullet without explosive effect. In the cases of the older and more brittle bones the bullet at long ranges causes great damage, especially as the bullet at these long ranges has become unsteady from loss of velocity aiid strikes the bone sidewise, thus transferring its energy over a greater area than if it had struck point on. Owing to the change in the position of bullets fired at long ranges, the effect produced in the bony tissues is at iirst in the short ranges very severe from the high velocity, but in the inidranges the effects are less severe because of loss in velocity, and at long ranges the effects became severe again because of the impact being made with the side of the bullet. Bad Taste as Seen in Japan. Roctor Aston, the scholarly Japanese secretary to the British legation in Tokyo, summarized what Kenko, the fourteenth century writer of "Tsurezure Gusa," considered to be "bad taste," thus: Too much furniture in one's living room. Too many pens in a stand. Too many Buddhas in a private shrine. Too many rocks, trees and herbs in a garden. , Too many children in a house. Too many words when men meet. Too many books in a bookcase there can never be, nor too much litter in a dust heap. London Saturday Review. Parasite Destroys San Jose Scale. A parasite which destroys the dreaded San Jose scale has been discovered, and is now beincr usnd in Ppnnvivania, where it has been highly sucCPsaful in combating the ravages of the pest which has done such damage to American fruit and nut trees. The parasite is the Chalcid fly, which comes from the same part of China from which the San Jose scale first came. There the Chalcid flv has ef fectually checked the scalo. Patterns by Kaleidoscope.

PLAN FOR CLEAN EGGS

Sunshine Is Necessary for the Health of Laying Hens. Poultryman Shoujd Follow Nature's Plan and Make Winter Months Comfortable to Fowls Furnish Pfenty of Nests. iulr (By A. G. SMITH.) Sunshine is absolutely necessary for the health and vigor of the laying hen. Low windows should be set so that the sun will shine into every part of the house during some part of the day. Roosts should be placed on a level, and not too high, as the hens are apt to injure themselves either by crowding, falling or flying against a projection about the house. Keep the windows in the poultry house clean. A Trap Nest With Door Closed. Rub them repeatedly with old news papers. Sunshine in winter is the greatest of tonics. When poultrymen and farmers real ize that the sooner they follow na ture's plan and make the winter months as near like spring and sum mer months, the sooner they will real ize the height of their ambitijn winter eggs. Getting winter eggs is really quite easy if given a little thought and study. Using the gray matter in your skull will make you a successful poultryman. Poultry keepers may easily reduce the percentage of dirty or soiled eggs, and losses entailed to insignificant fig ures. First, an ample number of nests is, of course, necessary, but an ample number means no more, than, and probably not as many as, are usually directed by poultry writers. Laying houses are, as a rule, provided with a sufficient number, but where the keeper falls down is in failing to sup ply enough nesting material and floor litter. Obviously the nesting material must be clean, or the eggs become soiled by Door Opened, Showing Position of Trigger When Trap Nest Is Set. contact, and it must be sufficient in quantity, or the eggs are often broken by dropping upon the hard floor of the nest. In houses where the droo ping boards are above the nests, and uie custom is to sand the boards, small stones often drop into the nest and breakage results when newly laid eggs fall upon them. The condition of nests should be noticed daily, and the nesting material replenished when necessary. Plenty of nesting material prevents breakage and insures clean eggs. An ample and clean litter on the floor is also very essential when an A-l clean product is sought. Par ticularly is this true when the hens Door Removed to Show Position of Trigger When Door Is Closed. aro allowed outdoors during wet weather. The litter acts as a foot mat for the hens on their way to the nests. Clean eggs bring better prices than dirty ones. Raise More Sheep. The domestic wool clip does not begin to satisfy the home demand, and more and more we draw upon the foreign markets for our needs. The remedy is to raise more sheep. Green Feed for Hens. Sprouted oats are a splendid green feed for hens in winter and may be quite easily supplied on any farm. They are fed when they have reached i height of about three inches.

PREPARE FOWLS FOR MARKET ..I Dry-Picking Method Allowable ' for

Broilers Only Attractively Dressed Poultry Sells itself. Either scalding or the dry-picking. metiod can be used for fowls intended ior market, but for broilers only the dry-picking method 'is allowable. A chick only a few weeks old is a very tender bird, but if scalded it will be found impossible to pick it without occasionally rubbing a little of the skin off. These spots will darken and give the broiler a stale look. The scald ing will also increase the tendency to decay. With dry picking not only will the bird keep much longer, but the natural firmness of the flesh pre vents all fear of skinning. The more neatly a carcass is dressed, the better the chance to sell it to a good trade. Attractively dressed poultry sells itself, while inferior stuff goes begging. Dry picked poultry will stand larger shipments than those that are scalded. The carcass should be dressed immediately after being killed. To ab low the feathers to remain on for several hours will hasten decomposi tion. When scalding poultry for market (it is best to first dry-pick the legs, so that they will not necessaril be placed in the water and change color. Neither the heads nor the feet should touch the water. The water ought 'to be as near the boiling point as pos sible, without boiling. KEEPS COWS' STALLS CLEAN Device Shown in illustration to Pre vent Animals From Standing in Gutters With Hind Feet. The sketch shows a device to keep the cows from standing in the gutter with their hind feet and making a filth in the stall when they step out, then lying down in the mess, writes A. C. Dillon of Lincoln County, Colo., in Farmers Mail and Breeze. Some have the habit where movable stanchions Fig. 1 The Device. Fig. 2 In Use. are not used. This device works to perfection and sometimes cures cow of the habit. You will need two pieces of 2 by 4. Cut them to fit your gutter as shown in Fig. 1. Angle off one end so the cow does not lie on a sharp corner, make two half-diamond cuts in these pieces and set in the cross pieces. These are made of 3 by 3 and are se curely nailed. If the gutter is very wide you may have to put in three strips, as a cow used to standing in the gutter will soon find she can get her feet down between the strips. If you have two or more cows that have this trick stand them together. You can make the strips long enough for several cows and nut extra 2 bv 4 pieces in to support the strips. Lift the rack and place it back to the wall before turning out the cows. This de vice effectively cures your heifers of the habit. Keep salt before the cows at all times. Regularity in feeding is of supreme importance writh the dairy cow. Keep the floors warm. Cold floors cause much loss in milk in winter. In salting butter one ounce of salt to a pound of butter is generally about right. Dairy barn ventilation should be fur nished by a system, not by cracks and drafts. The successful dairyman is the man who puts thought into his work. Ho is a student of conditions. Now about those cow stables. Don't forget that a hole in the side of the cow barn means a hole in the pocket. On warm days let the cows out in the yard for a change and to get in the sun. When cold keep them in the stables. Just can't afford to let the cows lose flesh or get a setback. Rcrifember it costs money to get an animal in good condition. Many times the cow that does not yield a profit at the pail is just as liberal an eater at the manger as the cow that does make you money every day. Feed cows daily one pound of grain for every three pounds of milk pro duced, twenty-five to forty pounds of corn silage, and what clover or alfalfa hay they will eat. $ Very frequently a cow that is only fair as to breeding and productive ca pacity will do better in the hands of a good dairyman than a good cow under poor management.
