WHITER WEAKNESS Dr. Williams Pink Pills the Tonic That Mcst People Need for Bleed and Nerves. In winter the air of the close rooms in which we spend so much of the time does not furnish enough oxygen to the lungs to burn out the foul matter in the blood. In the cold season we do not exercise as much and the skin and kidneys do not throw off the waste matter as freely as usual. The system bournes overloaded with poisonous matter, and too feeble to throw it off. Relief can be had only throngh the use of a remedy that will promptly and thoroughly purify and strengthen the blood, and tha one best adapted for this purpose is the great lood tonic known as Dr. Williams Pink Pills. They acted like magic in my case' said Mrs. Clara L. Wilde, of No. 377 Farnsworth avenue, Detroit Mich. I was weak and thin and coul. not sleep. My stomach and nerves wert out of order. I can't describe how miserable I really was. I dragged through six months of feebleness, prowing weaker all the time until I finally hadn't strength enough to leavo my bed". "Then a glad day came, the dav when I began to take Dr. Williams Pink Pills. They made me feel strong right away. My appetite came back, I took on flesh and the color returned to my cheeks. People wondered that these pills did for me what the doctors couldn't do. I took only six boxes and then I was perfectly well. If I had not found this wonderful remedy I rarely think that I must have wasted to death. Believing firmly that these pills saved my life by the strength which they gave me at a critical moment, I "unhesitatingly recommend them to others." Dr. Williams Pink Pills contain no stimulant but give strength that lasts. They may be obtained at any drug store. Helping; Him. Jacfc Timmld Congratulate me! May has accepted Cousin Kate Of course.

Lincoln's election to the legislature of Illinois in August, 1834, marks the end of the pioneer period of his life. He was done now with the wild carelessness of the woods, with the rough jollity of Clary's Grove, with odd jobbs for his daily bread with all the do tails of frontier poverty. He continued for years to be a very poor man, harassed by debts he was constantly laboring to pay, and sometimes absolutely without money; but; from this time on he met and worked with men of wider knowledge and better trained minds than those he had known in Gentryville and J'ew Salem; while the simple social life of Vandalia, where lie went to attend the sessions of the legislature, was more elegant than anything he had yet seen.

BABY COVEUED WITH SOEES.

Would Scratch and Tear the Flesh Unless Hands Were Tied "Would Have Died but for Cuticura." "My little son, when about a year and a half old, began to have sores come out on his face. I had a physician treat him, but the sores grew worse. Then they began to come on his arms, then on other parts of his body, and then one came on hia chest, worse than the others. Then I called another physician. Still he grew worse. At the end of about a year and a half of suffering he grew so bad I had to tie his hands in cloths at night to keep him from scratching the sores and tearing the flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton, and was hardly able to walk. My Aunt advised me to try Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I sent to the drug store and got a cake of Soap and a box of the Ointment, and at the end of about two months the sores were all well. He has never had any sores of any kind since. He is now strong and healthy, and I can sincerely say that only for your most wonderful remedies my precious child would have died from those terrible sores. Mrs. Egbert Sheldon, It. P. D.

RAN EMPTY TRAIN. Not a Passencer from Jersey City to I'ittsbnrrc Expensive Trip. It cost the Pennsylvania railroad and tlv Tullman Palace Car Company $125 on Christmas day to run a train without any passengers from Jersey City to Pittsburg. The train, the Pennsylvania limited, one of the finest on the road, consisted of an engine, baggage car, diner and three coaches whvn It pulled out of Jersey City at 11:24 a. ra. on Monday, and when it reached Pittsburg at 9:35 o'clock that night, the only passengers it carried were the three changes of Pennsylvania crews and the regular Puliman crew. The run was strictly according to schedule, but not a ticket was punched, not a meal was served, or a piece of baggage handled. Nobody worked but the engineers and firemen. Three cooks basted fowls and created good things in the culinary line for four waiters to serve the passengers who didn't come. A :arler waited in vain for "Next!" and the Pulman conductor hml plenty of time to admire bis new uniform. All this cost the conilKiuy, founded by the late George Pullman, good cash, and, as for the Pennsylvania, why, there were thre? conductors who didn't conduct, while twelve brakemeii and three baggagemasters twirled their thumbs instead of lantern, flag or trunks. A lone stenographer had time to waste, and the wear and tear on the train, the equipment of which represented about $45,C00, kept on with every turn of the wheels. It is doubtful If a railroad train ever made such a run before. Joseph Brown, the Pennsylvania conductor who had charge of the train from Jersey City to Philadelphia, said that in his fortyfive years as a railroader be never remembered such an ocucrrence. New York American. OVER SEA HABIT. Difference on This Side the Water. The persistent effect upon the heart of caffeine in coffee cannot but result In the gravest conditions, in time. Each attack of the drug (and that means each cup of coffee) weakens the organ a little more, and the end is almost e matter of mathematical demonstration. A lady writes from a Western State: 4I am of German descent, and it was natural that I should learn at a very early age to drink coffee. Until I was 23 years old I drank scarcely anything else at my meals. ,4A few years ago I began to be affected by a steadily increasing nervousness, which eventually developed into a distressing heart trouble that made me very weak and miserable. Then, some three years ago, was added asthma in Its worst form. ' My sufferings from these things can be better imagined than described. "During all this time my husband realized more fully than I did that coffee wm injurious to me, and made every effort to make me stop. "Finally It was decided a few months ago, to quit the use of coffee absolutely, and to adopt Postum Food Coffee as our hot table drink. I had but little Idea that it would help me. but consented to try It to please my husband. I prepared it very carefully exactly according to directions, and was delighted with its delicious flavor and refreshing qualities. "Just as soon as the polsoa from the coffee had time to get out of mv system the nutritive properties of the Postum began to bnild me up, and I am now fully recovered from all my nervousness, heart trouble and asthma I gladly acknowledge that now, for thi first time in years, I enjoy perfect health, and that I owe it all to Postum." Name given by Tostum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. There's a reason. Read the little book, 'The Road to Wellvllle In pkgs. Postum Food Coffee contains- no drusj of any description whatsoTer.

When oats are fed untbresbed they make a better balanced ration. Timothy is not good forage for dairy cows and not a profitable crop to grow. " Working the butter after the salt is properly incorporated is Injurious and causes a waste of salt. In 11XK) ül,19ti,lüO pounds of honey and 1,765,315 pounds of beeswax was produced in this country. Harsh treatment restricts the flow of milk; treat cows with kindness; they repay for it in dollars and cents. A few fowls in separate pens are much more profitable and more easily kept healthy than in large numbers. Profit by experience In all things. This motto is as valuable in the raising of poultry as in any other business. Tbs pure-bred animal Is the more valuable simply because of its greater capacity to nppioprlatc favorable clrruinstances. Shipping crates for fowls should be at least sixteen Inches high and as large as the requirements of comfort would suggest. According to the claims of cold storage men, brown-shelled eggs keep better than whiie-shelled ones, as they are heavier and thicker. Tigs given an opportunity during the nursing period to eat with the sow ate weaned more easily and safely than if otherwise handled. One of the best proofs of the breeding value of a stallion is to see some of his colts. It sometimes pays to investigate before breeding. Looking back over the past five or six years the sheep man can see no place where lie can register a kick. He certainly has none coming. The poor man has an advantage over the rich one In that his children do not have to wait for his shoes before thev can start out in life. Remember that the sick fowl, If the ailment shows symptoms such as accompany some of the more serious diseases, should be quickly removed frcm the flock or killed. White clover is rich In protein a.nd lime, good for both chicks and hens. When grass is kept short by a lawn mower. It is much more tender and better liked. Cows must have comfort in order to do well. Give them a good bed and a comfortable stall with as much liberty as is consistent with cleanliness, convenience and economy. To Impart best flavor and appearance, fatted fowls should be fed tallow, melted and mixed with meal and skim milk, twice a week. Oue pound of tallow is sufficient for forty fowls. In hog stables and barns it will be found better to have the feeding floor higher than the rest aud the floor w III always be kept clean of cobs and litter. Hogs will work it off on the lower part of the floor. Put on a few battens over the cracks in the stable and note the saving of grain. Leave the battens off and you will have to heap up the half bushel when feeding. Which is the cheaper? That is the question. An icy watering trough is rot a joy forever. There are several ways of preventing this trouble, the lest of which is a tank heater. This does not require much fuel and but little time to keep it In good running order. Since mutton has become so popular and in such great demand, wool growers are fearful of the consequences. Teople are eating up the wool bearing flocks of the world. Germany has had her flocks decreased GO per cent since 1S73. The city man has his home for an abiding place; it is not his business. The farmer has his home as a business. He earns a livelihood by the aid of his home. This is one reason why it should be a happy home. It combines business with pleasure. It Is a letter policy to let neighbors brag about what you are doing thaii to be compelled to do that youiself. Put your light in a candlestick where it will be seen of all men, then one j will not have to tell with emphasis what he is doiug or has done. While the farmer is enjoying a setson of comparative inactivity the frost Is active, being engaged in unlocking stores of fertility in the soil. If plant I food is not stored there Jack will not find It, neither will he supply it. That is not his business. A flock of sheep as gleaners in the cornfield are a great success. The weeds, grass and pestiferous seeds they destroy can be reached by no other agency. If the small farmer owns no flock of sheep he may rent one for a few days from a more thrifty neighbor on easy terms. The soil considered best suited to the cultivation of the strawberry In the northeastern part of the United States is what is known as a sandy or gravelly loam. A warm, quick soil, though naturally poor, is preferred to a heavy, retentive soli well supplied with plant food. Lacking plant food can easily be supplied. It is expecting too much of a ewe to make her grow and shear the heaviest or next heaviest fleece of her life and raise a lamb in one year. It cannot be done without checking the growth of the sheep and producing a small and unhealthy lamb. Continuing that line for several years the owner will have a very uneven flock and constitution will be bred out of them. A wealthy telephone company toro flown a farmers' line In making some repairs to its own line and left it dismantled. The farmers waited on tho company and told them to make the

i&smwtB um

repairs to tteir line and at least make it as good as they found It. The agent told them to go off about their business, that a telephone company worth a million had no time to fuss with farmers' lines. But the agent immediately put the line in repair when informell that the twenty-four farmers operating the farmers' line were worth half a million dollars and would fight for their rights. Thrw Ufmrdln for Rata. Feed rats on flour and sugar for three days, one-fourth sugar, then use three parts flour and one part plaster of pari and sweeten as before. Animals eating rats killed in this way will not die, says Rural New Yorker. Catch a live rat, smear him with tar and set him at liberty. Acetylene sprinkled in rat holes and runways, coops and outbuildings will cause immediate evacuation. Advantages of the Silo. This is what one careful farmer says: I have no silo, but have been watching my neighbors who have silos and shall build this fall. I have watched results attained by my neighbors who have been using them for two or three years and am satisfied that it is a good and cheap way of feeding cattle and sheep, even when brewers' malt may be had with a short haul. My judgment on the matter of feed is that with alfalfa and a well-filled silo we can produce milk, mutton and beef at small cost. Tarpentin For Warm. An experienced hog raiser says: After using worm powders and other destroying agents we have finally settled down to turpentine for worms in swine, and usually get the most satisfactory results from it. A tea spoonful to each hundred pounds of swine is about the right dose. (?ive it in slop or milk, and once or twice a week, according to severity of attack. Two, or at the most three, doses will be found suflicient to rid the animal of nearly if not all of its worms. Tolnts on Salting? Flutter. At a low churning temperature in a cool room butter usually comes In a firm condition. In such a condition butter takes salt with difficulty. It Is essential to work It more in order to get the salt evenly distributed and dissolved. Such nn excessive amount of working while butter is in a hard condition causes an undue amount of water to be expressed, thus making the condition for dissolving sufficient salt more unfavorable, besides lessening the overrun without improving the commercial value. The AVI t eh Hasel Harvest. The witch hazel industry is the source of many extra dollars added to the income of farmers in certain part? of Connecticut. In Middlesex County several large factories have been erected for working up the brush and raw material may be seen moving by the cartload from the farm districts for miles around. A ton of brush would make something like twenty gallons of fairly strong extract. The best quality is obtained from the green twigs, although the dry parts may be used for the cheaper grade. The hazel barvest opens atK)Ut the time fall work closes and when tho fanner has the most leisure. The work consists mostly of cutting the brush, which usually grows in hilly, rough places, and piling it upon the carts. The load is then driven to the nearest mill where it is worked up by special machinery and distilled. The brush Is very plenty in some sections, and the cutters average fair wages if the distance traveled to the mill is not too great. The price paid is in the vicinity of $" per ton. Don't Keep Too Many Tier. It is a mistake to overstock your place with pips or any other animal?. Too many farmers In attempting to make money by increasing the number of animals do so at the exi'fmse of quality. An overstocked farm is not a profitable one. A farm that is overstocked is one that has more animols of any character than can be properly cared for or kept in ood, thrifty, plowing condition. Wherever me numbers interfere with the growth or with the attention that should be piven them it is overstocked. If the pastures are too small for them or too short, necessitating the purchase of feed, the profits are cut with a twoedged sword, first because of purchasing feed, second because of the injury to the thrift and growth of the animals. More money can be made with half the ai'lruals properly fed and cared for and kept In a thrifty, growing condition. Every pig or other animal should have a chance, and If they are crowded it is Impossible to give them a good show. Numbers sometime? are the sole cause of losses Instead of profits. A great many beginners make the fatal mistake of overstocking. American Swineherd. Canne of Hitter Milk. Bitter milk is one of the most annoying ills with which a dairyman can bo afflicted. Bitterness sometimes develops in the best kept dairies, while the most slovenly will be immune. Its cause is an organism resembling the ordinary yeast; in fact. It Is a yeast. It Is originally found on the leaves of trees, just as the yeast organism Is found on hops, but is easily transmitted to milk cows or the stable dust. When once these yeast organisms gain admittance to milk they find conditions favorable for their development and proceed to reproduce themselves, hence the bitter taste in milk, cream and butter. To remove the source o.C Infection is no small task, for in all the crevices of every can in which milk has been kept there will be found sufficient of the yeast to carry on infection. It is, therefore, necessary to thoroughly clean, scald, and scrape the scams of every vessel In which milk has been kept, then carefully whitewash the mllkhouse, cellar or pantry, and this should prevent further development In the house. At the same time sweep down the walls and ceiling of the stabl&s and give all the inside a thorough coat of whitewash or a spraying with some disinfectant, such as bichloride of mercury, 1 to 1,000 parts of water.

T? eitern Canada's Marvelous Orop Returns. The Increase in the crop return of the Canadian West, in the past seven years, has approached the marvelous, and there is no reason to believe that a corresponding increase will not result for many years to come. The increase has been particularly noticeable in what was formerly known as the Northwest Territories, but which, on Sept. 1, 1905, became the provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan. From the official returns we find the following results in the acreage sown to wheat, oats and barley, in the years mentioned, and a more favorable showing cannot be pointed to in any other country during a like period. Wheat. Oats. Barley. 1S9S 307,580 105,077 17,082 1S9D 303,523 134,038 14,27 1000 42,S(i 175,439 17,044 1901 504,097 229,439 24,702 1902 025,758 310.3C7 30,443 1903 8374134 440,CG2 08,974 1904 900,549 523.G34 98,154 The yield has been uniformly good every year except 1900, when there appears to have been a slump all along the line. This, however, was more than compensated for In the following year, when the bumper crop in wheat, oats and barley put the returns of all previ

ous years completely In the shade, and gave an impetus to settlement in the West which has prevailed to the present, as the following table by bushels will show: Wheat Oats. Barley. 1898.. 5,542,478 3.040,307 449,512 1899.. C,915,G23 4,08G,030 337.521 1900.. 4,028,294 44120,152 353,21G 1901..12.S08.447 11,113,000 795,100 1902.. 13,95(5,850 10,001,295 970,417 1003..1G,029,149 14,179,700 1,842.824 1904..1G,S75,537 lG.332..r51 2,205,434 It will be seen that the number of acres sown to wheat, oats and barley In 18.98 was 429,749, and that this had Increased in 1904 to 1.587,337. The total crop in the cereals mentioned was 9,033,297 bushels in 1898, and in 1904 it had grown to the magnificent total of 35,413.522. In the year just closed the "forward movement" in the agriculture of the West has been the wonder and envy of the world. New sections of the country have been placed uuder tribute to the plow and harrow, and the grain area has been largely increased. This Is particularly the case whpre it has been demonstrated that "Alberta Red" winter wheat may be successfully grown, and along the Hues of tbe new railways towards the center of the country, where mixed farming prevail. The future of the Canadian West is assured, and for years to come it is bound to be the land of promise to the agriculturist of every nation and of every clime, and the land of opportunity to every settler within its bounds.

One of the most noted, successful and richest men of this century, in a recent article, has said, 44 Whatever I am and whatever success I have attained in this world I owe all to my wife.

To be such a successful wife, to r tain the love and admiration of her husband, to inspire him to make the most of himself, slyould be a woman's constant study. If a woman finds that her energies are flagging, that she gets easily tired, dark shadows appear under her eyes, she has backache, headaches, bearingdown pains, nervousness, irregularities or the blues, she should start at once to build up her system by a tonic with specific powers, such as Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. . Following we publish by request a letter from a voung wife : Dear Mrs. Pinkham: 44 Ever since my child was born I have suffered, as I hope few women ever have, with inflammation, female weakness, bearing-down pains, backache and wi-etched headaches. It affected my stomach so I could not enioy my meals, and half my time was spent in bed. " Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound made me a well woman, and I feel so grateful that I am glad to write and tell you of my marvelous recovery. It brought me health, new life and vitality.' Mrs. Bessie Ainsley, 611 South 10th Street. Taeoma, Wash. What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did for Mrs. Ainsley it will do for every sick and ailing woman. ' If you have symptoms you don't understand write to Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia E Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass.
