Nucva St., San Antonio, Tex., writrs : "During 1001 I suffered from nas.il catarrh, which various other remedies failed to relieve. "Six bottles of IYruna, which I took, entirr-Jy cured me, the catarrh disappearing and never returning. I therefore cheerfull? :eeoracend Teruna to all similarly afHictad." Mrs. Ellen Nagle, 414 4th street, Green Bay, Wis., write. I have oftea heard Peruna praised and it is nore widely known here than any other medicine, but I never knew what a splendid medicine it really was until a few weeks aso, whan I caught a bad cold which settled 4 .11 over me. The doctor wanted tt prescribe, but I told Lim I was goinjr to try Peruna and sent for a bottle and tried it.

Sot m Stranger to Her. The conductor of the Pullman car had for some time had his eye on the man who seemed to be fishing for an excuse to speak to the lady across the afsle. The passenger finally left his seat and took one beside her, &nd when they had conversed for a few minutes the lady seemed to be protesting, and the conductor's opportunity had come, lie st:pp?d forward and said: "Madam, If this man 1 Worein? hl3 attentions upon you he must resume his own seat."

Do not turn her off simply because she U old. All ar'iLals thrive best when fed at regul-r "vals and given each time no a they will readily con sume. Bran is a grood deal betty feed fof fattening stet-rs that most farmers understand. Wien, you can buy it at a low price, try it. Those who have to buy hay may console themselves by recalling that hi the spring of 1S70 hay sold iu New York at $40 to ?4S rer ton. The proportion of profit is usually greater where small numbers of stocl; are handled than otherwise. That's where the small farmer comes in. When you are feeding poultry scatter the feed around so the birds will have to hunt for it. as it will give them exercise and prevent them from jgoring themselves. The udder of the ewe suffering from garget should bo well bathed with very warm water, to which has beu added an ounce of cooking soda, and after bathing it should be well rubbed with im embrocation composed of la 1 and turpentine. Statistics show that 03 farmers of 100 keep hens. It is estimated that 7Ü per cent of this number raise mongrelj and crossbreeds. 2s"ow that the campaign for pure-bred cattle, hogs and even field seeds is on. It would seem wise to reduce the number of mongrelbred poultry. An osage hed?e if trimmed up flva or six feet, mv.y be converted into u first-class hos and cattle-tight fence by adding about six barbed wires. In a year or two when the branches grow out ajain over the wire it makes au impregnable barrier to live stock's exit or entrance. Barley as a feed for live stock le much commoner Id European countries than it is in the United States. In this country it is confined more largely to States of the PaelSc slope. Byproducts left from the breweries are usually used as stock feed. Barley is a crop that can be raised in a great many different climates and is surer of maturing a crop than some other of the small grains. .Vnrletr of Red Clover. A recent Government bulletin gives accounts of new kinds of clover obtained from Ku?sia. The variety that has been most promising is tbrt called Orel. One great advantage of this type is that it is hairless. Every reader, who has examined either red or mammoth clover must have noticed the abundance of hairs, so-called, on the stem, and the midrib and skeleton of the leaf. It is this hair or fuzz that renders red and mammoth clover so exceedingly dusty, and we suspect it is this that causes it to turn black and spoil so readily in bad weather. The hair furnishes the very best opportunities for accumulation of the fungi which are the cause of the heating of clover hay. One of the merits of alslke is that it is smooth like the Orel clover. In most places where it has been tested this variety yields much better than any of the native varieties, and whore It has failed it has been in comparison with varieties of similar origin. It has much more leaf growth, but is about two weeks later, coming In along after the mammoth clover ; so much later, in fact, that It is not eairy to procure seed from the second crop, except north of latitude 43. It 13 not recommended as a substitute for th common red or mammoth, but as sup plementary to either one, partlcularlf In sections north and west of the pre ent 'lmlt of clover growing. Care of Turkeys. At the Manitoba Station an erper!. ment was made as to the gains by tu? ! keys confined in pens, as compare with those that ran at large. ThosA la pens were given all they would ea clean of a mixture of wheat, oats ana barley, 2:1:1. In the morning the grair; was fed the turkeys which were not bu in the evening it was fed whole. It was noted that the turkeys were apparently more fond of oats than of ths other grains, so toward the end of the fattening. period the proportion of thi3 grain was Increased. A little grain was fed the turkeys which were not confined in addition to the food which they could gather. The five turkeys Id pens weighed on an average, G.55 pounds each at the beginning of the test. During the forty-two days of the f ceiling period the average gain waa 4.05 pounds. 0 pounds of grain being ectcn per pound of gain. The turkeys running at large also weighed at the beg nning of the' test G.35 pounds each and made an average gain of Impounds. On both case3 the greates; gains were made during the first thre weeks of the period. It is stated thai the penned turkeys when dressed shrank 5 per cent less than those running at large and that they were plumper and were in every way more Invitin? in appearanoe. Fangs Growth on Grains. Smut Is annoying to fanners, as It lot only causes loss, out compels one to cease using the seed from his crop, which may be of some valuable variety. So damaging has been smut on all kinds of grain that the United Stite Agricultural Department has issued several special bulletins on the subject The loss of grain from smut In thhi 'ountry Is very large, and yet the mav ter has received but comparatively Hlr tie attention. Smut Is caused by talv ite parasitic fungi, the spores, or seeilike bodies, which form the black,' dust mass that takes the placo of ths

kernels, or the entlro head. These spores are very minute, and are easily blown about, often adhering to the kernel before It Is planted, and when such kernels sprout the spores also germinate and send delicate threads into the young seedlings. These threads follow the growth of the plant, fill the head as soou as formed, and there develop a mass of spores Instead of fcefnels. This black mass I so well known as to be recognized by every farmer who has grown grain, but many farmers may not be aware of the fact that every car of corn containing smut is a menace to the grain crop of next year. All such stalks nould be cut out and burned on the first sign of smut, and where oats, barley, wheat or any small grain is affected seriously It will sometimes pay to'mow the crop and burn It.

Meat (ii Chick Food. In a recent report of experiments In feeding chicks, the Ithode Island Experiment Station says: The use of the proper proportion of animal food will pay a handsome profit through decreased mortality and Increased weight of the cliicks. In feeding, bear in mind that chicks in a state of nature spend practically all of their working hours in search of food, and that they do iot fill their crops In ten ndnutea every two hours. Feeding should be, as far as the time of the attendant renders pro ;-.ble, a continuous process, but by :: means a continuous gorge. The experiment which Id ! to th's conclusion was with .' uhator hatch of ilO chicks. Tbo. iv seia rated Into lots of about fifty each and placed in similar? brooders. For thirty d;;'s all conditions were kept alike except rations. Pen A was fed a balance rition of grains, meats and green fowl. The chicks grew and thrived, and not one chick showed symptoms of digestive disorder. The eaths amounted to Ö.0 per cent. In Pen n all animal food was withheld; the deaths were 9.5 per cent, of which 75 per cent had bowel trouble. Pen C was cd on grain alone, all animal food and all srreen food being omitted from the ration; the deaths were C2.7 per cent, of which 0G.5 per cent showed digestive trouble. In Ten D all gram food was omitted; the deaths of chicks were 03.7 per cent, of which SÖ.S per cent showed bowel trouble. ll the living chicks were weighed at tie close of the test, and Ten A showed the greatest average weights for all greeds. ITovr to Exterminate Hen Mite. Some years ago our henhouse was badly infested with red lice. I will give my way of getting rid of them, for I think it Is a good one; at least, it proved successful. We began by pulling out the old roost, which was nailed against the wall, and then whitewashed the walls and nests. We poured some kerosene on the cracks a ro tm d the nests. The kerosene will run a Ion the cracks and kill all the ;ice it ges on. The floor was covered sdth sand. We then put up a hanging r oost by taking some lath and nailing one end to the ceiling and fastened jnother lath that is to be ned as the oost to the other end with a wire. After you have the roost up, dust the chickens with powder to destroy the ;ice that are on them. This hanging roost is very important. Have it far nough away from the walls so that he chickens, when on It. will not touch he walls, and do not let any chickens roost on the nest or any w here else. The red lice do not breed on the chickens, as the large gray tr white lice do. They lay their eggs in the cracks around the roost and nests. Most of them leave the chickens In the morning and fo on them again at night. In thi3 way you can quickly get rid of all the red lice. Even if you only make he roost you can get rid of the lice, Jo? they cannot get on the chickens at alght. Bnt it will take two or three months before they will all starve, ot they live on one another. If the oop Is full of red lice the chickens look sickly. Do not set any hens In places where there are red lice. Hove them after dark to a neat where you wish them to set. The:' generally set well this way if you keep the nest j dark for a day or two. The large gray ! or white lice never leave the hens, I Dusting with powder is about as good as anything to kill them. Miss MaIda M. Sharbaugh. Soll Malchins. The soil is protected by mulching, not only because mulching assists in retraining moisiure uy jre cmiu euiu1 ration, but also because the covering supplies moisture in dry seasons by capillary attraction or the soil, which gradually brings up moisture at a time when it Is most needed. There are many conflicting opinions and theories regarding the effects of mulching, although many of the difficulties may be traced to the materials used for the purpose. In its consideration some of the leading horticulturists maintain that dry earth is the proper material of use, it being cheap and more easily applied. If the material used be manure, the labor of spreading and removing it is often greater than the value of the crop. A coating two inches upon one acre amounts to about 300 loads, which may cost from $23 to $30 In labor alone, and this sum Is still further Increased If the manure is worked Into the soil, while coarser ma terial, such as straw, leaves and corn stalks, must be applied and afterward entirely removed in order to allow of cultivation. It is claimed in favor of dry earth that it 13 an excellent nonconductor and holds between its particles a large volume of air, which not only prevents an attack of frost to a certain extent, but retards loss of moisture and heat. Every rain, however, compacts tlje covering of earth, forces out the air and lessens the utility of the earth as a mulch. To avoid this, the fanner must resort to frequent cultivation by stirring up the soil. It is due to Its service as a mulch that dry earth Is capably of mitigating the effects of drought by being frequently loosened by a cultivator, and for a long time this fact, in connection with cultivation, was not properly considered ; but the value of cultivation Is due to the entrance of air Into the sol, which Is not only of Itself a mulch, but .assists in hastening chemical action and th" preparation of plant food, while the constant working of the soil destroys weeds that would deprive the growing plants of food and moisture.

And ma responds, a trifle tart but game, "She minds her bizness hope you feel the same." I don't think mother picked me out to win. To be the steady ofsher darling child.

The impression that Lower California, which, it is 'said, the United States Is seeking to acquire from Mexico, is an arid and rocky waste is erroneous, says an American who owns property at San Carlos, near Magdalena Bay. There are indeed deserts on the north coast and in the interior, but the Tacifie coast is wonderfully fertile. The mountains rear their lofty peaks against a cloudless sky, the climate Is the most delightful to be found anywhere, and it Is the hunter's paradise. Mountain sheep, muledeer, antelope, cotton-tail deer, elk, brown and black bear, mountain lions, wild goats, wolves, all kinds of game can be found there in endless quantity, and the mountain streams clear, cold bodies of purest water contain the finest trout that ever delighted an angler's eye. There are millions and millions of ducks canvasback, mallard, teal and it is not uncommon for one man to bag as many as S00 in a single day. Several rich men of this country who are fond of hunting have bought game preserves in Lower California and make annual trips there. I hope, and do not doubt, that the United States eventually will acquire the peninsula, and then the people will learn what a great and rich country it Is. Giving Ulna n Chance. Mrs. Wilson's husband was often obliged to go to New York on business, and frequently did not reach his home until the arrival of the midnight train. Mrs. Wilson had been In the habit of sleeping peacefully at these times without fear, but a number of burglaries In the neighborhood during one of her husband's trip to New York had disturbed her calm. On the night of his return Mr. Wilson was stealing carefully up the front stairs, as was his wont on such occa sions, so that his wife would not be wakened, when he heard her voice. hign and strained "I don't know whether you are my husband or a burglar," came the excited tones, "but I am going to be on the safe side and shoot, so if you are nenry you'd better get out of the way Maintaining Discipline.

Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett has become editor of the Children's Magatine. Mr. Vivian Burnett, her son. has become manager. The Saturday Review says the fol lowing has never been told in print before: "Ruskin had been inveighing against 'usury;' a bishop of Manchester defended the custom, though of course not in Its worse form. A worthy acquaintance wrote to Ruskin taking up arms for the bishop. Whereupon Ruskin replied: 'You and the Bishop of Manchester are dangling over the pit of he , and you want me to sprinkle you with rose water.'"

The reason for this decision has not yet been disclosed. M. Henri Rochefort, who, has withdrawn from the Intransigeant, is supposed to have lain down with a managerial wolf whom he took for a sheep. The firebrand journalist has escaped enough Intact to be a welcome addition to the editorial staff of the Tatrie. Emilie Massard, Its director, says that "M. Henri Rochefort loaves the journal which he founded, animated and personified, for reasons that concern him and do not call for our approval or disapproval. We are delighted to place our columns at his disposition. In them he may express his opinions with perfect frankness." Under this happy condition M. Rochefort, 77 years old though he be, has recommenced his "slapdash, virulent daily pamphlets against men who happen to be In power." Miss Elizabeth Robins has written a novel to be called "The Convert." It is a story of the woman suffrage movement, with the scene laid in London. Miss Robins is certain to have appreciated the higher aspects of this long fight against masculine and feminine conservatism. The hysteria in the lobbies at Westminster last spring was not confined to the excited suffragists. It seized most of the critics who scoffed at the petticoat warriors, as well as most of the policemen who faced them. The theme of woman's suffrage, though conducive to emotional aberration, could be mt.de stimulating and vital in the highest degree. It served Marcel Prevost for an interesting if rhapsodic study, and there Is every hope that Miss Robins book, coming from the better situated sex, will surpass "Frederiquc." Still In the Race. Cyrus Grcenough had decided tha. the methods of New England were toe slow for him, and had, therefore, moved to a stirring Western town.

Whoever has had the privilege ol lyLng at full length on some mossy overhanging bank while watching a large trout in his lair perceives that a true figure has yet to be drawn of him. Even photography can give nc hint of the wavy circles from the spotted dorsal fin undulating loosely 'athwart the broad back, of the perpetual fanning of the pectoral fins, of th capacious gills opening and closing, the half open round mouth, the luminous brown eye, the ceaseless slow vibration of the powerful tail, nor can pen adequately describe the startling suddenness of the dart at some idle fly touching the surface, the quick return to the old position and the resumption of the poise, with' head elevated at a slight angle, pectorals all tremulous and floating watery circles emanating from every slight motion, of the body. It Is also worth while to watch a trout rush four feet up a perpendicular fall of water, pause, tremble violently all over, and In a moment throw himself clear of the stream and fall into the basin above at an elevation of about three feet more.
