What is Pc-ru-na. Aro wa claiming too much for Peruna yrhcn vro claim it to be an effective remedy for chronic catarrh? Have abundant proof that Peruna is in reality such a catarrh remedy? Let us see what the United States Dispensatory says of the principal ingredients of Peruna. Take, for instance, the ingredient hydrastis canadensis, or golden seal. The United States rspensatory says cf this herbal remedy, that it is largely employed in the treatment of depraved mucous membranes lining various organs of the human body. Another ingredient of Peruna, corydalis formosa, is classed in the United States Dispensatory as a tonic. Cedron 6eed3 is another ingredient cf Peruna. The United States Dispensatory says of the action of cedron that it is nsed as a bitter tonic and in the treatment of dysentery, and In intermittent diseases as a substitute to: quinine.

A Matter of Profitable Interest to the Farmer and Dairyman. The problem of keeping rweet all the utensils used In connection with milk and cream selling, and butter making, has been a serious one with the farmer. He has come to realize fully that the slightest taint or hint of staleness left In a can, tin or churn may ruin a whole output; that the taint which Is left Is in the form of bacteria which grow and multiply in tnlll$ or butter, producing disastrous results. The farmer has learned that hot water won't rinse away the greasy realdue in dairy utensils. He has learned that soap leaves a residue of its own which is. If anything, worse than the milk or cream residue, and it is little wonder that there hra been a constant clamor for a dairy cleanser and sweetener that will meet modern requirements. A few of the largest creamery establishments have called experts Into consultation on this problem and have with this scientific aid hit upon a product of nature which exactly fills the bill borax. Scientists hare long known borax as a cleanser, a sweetener and an antiseptic destroyer of bacteria and germ growths. Dstroyi all that is harmful and promotes and preserves freshness, sweetness and purity, relieving the dairyman and dairy housewife of drudgery and of needless work and worry. Its cheapness and value should gl re ft first place in the necessities of every dairy. The cow's udder is kept h a clean, healtay and smooth condition by washing It with borax and water, a tablespoonful of borax to two quarts of water. This prevents roughness and Borvness or cracking teats, which make milking time a dread to the cow and a worry to the milker. The modern cleanser of all dairy utensils consists of one tablespoonful of borax to every quart of water needeel. Remember a tablespoonful equals four teafpoonfuls. lie sure that yon get pure borax. To be sure, you must get 20 Mule Team Borax." All dealers.

'What Ih State Aid In It on a ItaildlnsT As bcth political parties have put a State Aid Good Roads plank in their platform and the Democrats have ad. led IVJeral Aid as well, the good romls question takes on an added interest. Perhaps there is no question before the public about which there is more misinformation than State Aid. A good way to explain what It is, is to tell what it In"t. It isn't a plan to tYrce farmers to build good roads. Not a step can le tkcn, not a dollar expended until the dents of the respective townships ( ülch are almost always farmers) vote to build roads. It is rather a plan that forces cities,! towns and corporations to help pay the cost of such roads as the farmers decide by majority voteto build. As thee farmers, under State Aid. will have to pay one-half the expense of the roads they vote to build, and also contribute a small amount to the State fund, the general public i protected against recklessness in exIei diture. täte Aid does not take away any local control whatever over the roads. The only restriction is that the actual building of the roads must be done under State supervision. This means a capable engineer is furnished by the State to see a good job is done. State Aid recognizes the highways as public property used by all and benefiting all, and that every one ought to help pay for them in proportion as they ere benefited. The equitable division seems to Im? to place half the cost against the State and tho other half against the township, leaving the township to decide what roads, how many and when they shall be Improved; the State having no voice in it. If all the townships in the State of Illinois, for Instance, should Improve their roads at the same time under the present law the farmers would pay one hundred per cent or the whole cost If under state aid they would pay fifty per cent, the local proportion, plus three-tenths of the other fifty per cent, or sixty-five per cent of the total, instead of one hundred per cent. Thus the savirig to farmers under State Aid would be thirty-five per cent, which amount would be paid by towns, cities, railway and other corporations. In a nutshell State Aid Is a plan to make cities, towns and corporations pay part of the cost of building such roads as the farmers decide to build. Sixteen states now build by State Aid and ten more are taking steps to do ro. Farmers Demand n "Square Deal. The farmers of the West are waking up to a very disagreeable fact, and that Is that for a generation or more they have paid all the road taxes that have been paid, and yet the roads are public proierty as much as the County Court House. ' Tho farmers of every State east of Indiana have discovered that they have victimized themselves by paying all the road taxes. They demanded and secured State aid. so that from one-half I to two-thirds of the cost of building 1 and keying up the roads Is paid by the State. That means that everybody pays road' taxes. Under State aid (that Is now In force in sixteen States, with ten more about to adopt it) the farmers do not In any way lose control of the highways, and only such roads can Im Improved as the voters of the respective townships decide upon. As these voters are almost wholly farmers they control the situation completely. AH the State can do is to render financial aid to build these roads. The State money comes from a bond issue or a State tax that covers all property In the State. In Illinois, for Instance, farmers pay only thirty per cent of the State tax. The big taxpayer Is the city of Chicago, which pays forty-two per cent of all .taxes paid In the State. Under State aid gravel and 6tone roads can be built with very little, if any. Increase In farm taxes. If Illinois, under State aid, were to exix nd $.".000,000 a year for ten years upon building good roads the tax would be less than ten cents per acre per year on farm lands. The j.'iO.OOO.OOO would be sufficient to gravel or macadamize all the main highways of the State and would give each township from fifteen to thirty rollest Georgia Convicts and Illinois Itoada. "Whenever The Journal urges the employment of convict labor on public roads, as it has often done, somelody is sure to write asking If this newspaper would have the country Imitate the Georgia system of working convicts in the open, with all the attendant cruelty of which the papers have lately been full. Just now one cor respondent sends us a clipping to the effect that the lower house of the Georgia legislature has passed a bill ending the present system of convict lalor on Jan. 1, 1011, and wants to know whether Illinois and other States should take up a system repudiated thus lu the South. This and other Indignant queries r based upon misapprehensions of facts, for the Georgia system bears no resemblance to that suggest til by The Journal. In Georgia, It is true, convicts work In camps hi the forest and In mines, but the State has nothing to do with them after they have been leased to contractors, who are private citizens. .These contractors, actuated by no other motive than gv--d, treat convicts shamefully, forcing them to work to the limit of human endurance and sometimes beyond it. using physical means to urge the unfortunate men on even after they are tired out. But convicts worked on public roads by the State would have no more reason to fear abuse than they do now, when they are shut up In penitentiaries. They would be treated humanely, and would le vastly better off than now, confined In narrow cells of a great prison. Chicago Journal. Good Koad. and Politics. The political managers always keep their ears to the ground and as soon as they find the people in large numbers are demanding a thing they got busy and advocate it. Good roads now Is having its inning. All thrco national conventions have declared for good roads and for State aid In building them. The plan thet ca;.!e In vogue a hundred years ago, when trade anl commerce was a mere barter and exchange between neighbors and when the roads were purely a local matter, and when practically all farm products v.cro consumed within a few miles of Mh?ic

they were produced, worked very well. Now a food product of the farm starts over these highways on a journey anywhere from 100 to fi.000 miles. The roads are part of a world-wide systenl of distribution. Their condition affects the market of the world. Thus they become of State and National Interest. One by one the States are waking up to the new condition an'! are demanding good roads and t.iat he cost of them shall be falr'y diolnbuted and not practically all paid by the farmers. The roads are public property and we have no more right to expect the farmers to pay all the road taxes because he Is the largest user of the roads thau to ask the lawyers to build the Court House for the reason that they use the building more than others. The public owns the roads; let the public pay the bill on an equitable pro-rating of the expense. State aid does this. Sixteen States have already adopted the new plan and find It works to a charm, and ten more States are taking steps to adopt it. It Is strange that among the States most backward In road improvement are Illinois, Missouri and Iowa. No States need good roads more and none are better able to build them. The problem of good roads must be met and solved and the solution Is State and National p'd. This should be the goal of every good roads advocate. When sufficient public interest Is aroused relief will come through Congress and the several States. The farmer then will only have to pay his fair proportion. Advantage of Good Itoada to Farmern The time has passed when any sane Pfrson will dispute the advantage of a road good every day in the year one not put out of commission by rain or frost. Everybody is benefited, as these highways must be used in moving to market the food products upon which ail depend. Bad roads make the delivery erratic and uncertain and increase the expense. Good roach, make short miles: bad roads long or.es. Distance Is no longer measured by the yard stick, but by the clock's tick. v The farmers use the country road more than anyone else, but they do not own them. They are public property rnd used for the benefit of everybody, Jience a fair proportion of the cost to build and maintain ought to be a charge against the whole public. Throughout the Middle West the farmers are paying practically all the road taxes. This Is unfair. In the building of good roads the farmers at first usually overlook the fact that good roads always add to the value of the farms served by them. Farm lands worth $75 to $100 per acre with dirt roads will euhance in value from. 15 to -." per cent by building good stone or gravel roads. Under the Stte aid plan that has been adopted by all the States east of Indiana, hard roads can be built in the Mississippi Valley

at an average cost not exceeding $1.50 per acre. In Illinois the tax will n t exceed 10 cents per acre per year for ten years. Every dollar put into good roads on the State aid plan will add from $5.00 to $20.00 to the actual selling value of the farm. Sometimes farmers say, "You can't raise any more corn by building good roads, can you?" No, you can't raise move corn if you build a new house and barn, but these Improvements make the farm worth just that much more. They add convenience and. comfort. So do the roads. State Aid In Itoad Building Ilceommended. Both great political parties strongly recommend State aid In road building for the first time in the history of the country. This shows "State Aid" is a live topic and that It Is coming to the front The roads are public highways. Then why should not all the public Instead 1 the farmers only be taxed to build them? Some might say the farmers usthem most. Well, the lawyers use the Court House most.' Is that any reason why they should pay all the taxes tc build It? j Sixteen States have found out and more are finding out that the only waj to get good roads is a State nij tas that puts the burden where it belongs viz., iqxm every dollar of property It the State to cover at least one-half thi exiense. This means that farmers an relieved of from 20 to 40 per cent the burden. WAITING FOR A FORTUNE. Mr. m Inkier Will ot Worry Ove It. but All Ileadr 'V It. - Like many another man, Mr. Blinke; is always hoping that something wll turn up, says the New York Sun. He'i an intelligent man and he knows i?f. fectly well that there isn't one chance In 718,000 million billion that he'll ever get a dollar that he doesn't work for and earn; and still he's always hoping and thinking that something might happen. And so when he gets to the office In the morning he looks In the letter box there, not really with the expectation of finding a fortune, but nevertheless, thinking that there might be something; not disappointed If there isn't, but wishing that he might find there a check for $1,000,000 from somebody or somewhere, or notice of some fortune that had been left to him that he was now to come and claim. It's Just the same when he goes home at night. lie's been away all day, time enough for forty things to happen, for forty fortunes to come, and still it is not an absolutely impossible thing, and so he's always kind o' hoping that he'll hear some good news when he goes home. lie never does; he finds everything going along there plaeldly; there hasn't been any fortune sent la or brought in by Uncle Sam, and lie knows they'd speak of It If there had been; but sometimes he says to Mrs. Bllnkey jokingly: "Anybody leave us two million today?" "No." says Mrs. Iillnkey smiling. "On million?" "No. "Half a million, maybe?" says Mr. Bllnkey. , "No. nor half a million," says Mrs. B. "Perhaps It was a hundred thousand? We could do with that." "No. not a hundred thousand." "Not a dollar?" says Mr. Bllnkey. "No. not even a dollar," says Mrs. Bllnkey. "Well, then," says Mr. Bllnkey, "I gucs I'll smoke my pipe," and he does this right cheerfully. But he's always hoping. Something happens every day to convince a man that the fools are the only wise ones. If -you wait until you are called you

Charcoal is appreciated by the flock. Provide It for them. Rape makes fine hog feed. They do not bloat on it as sheep do. Sow a little more clover and divide it up Into hog pastures. It will pay big. It Is a good scheme to use kerosene liberally about the interior of the place the entire year. A dairy cow shut up In a dark stable and fed on highly concentrated food quickly burns out. Better to plant a little in the garden and plant well than to half plant a great quantity of stuff. The community where the good dairy cow is In the majority Is the commit Tiity which is marked by contentment and prosperity. Tie Is good, but nobody wants it three times a day, and nothing else. No more does a hog want corn month in and month out without change. The feeding out of the odds and end 9 of fodder before the cold and wet fall weather ruins It Is important and means the saving ?f a snug sum every year. Feed the cow all the hay or other roughness she will eat, even If she Is running on good pasture. Her appetite tells her better what she needs than you can tell. There are about twenty-five kinds of nut-bearing trees in the United States. The consumption of nuts is Increasing rapidly, the demand evidently growing much faster than the hpme supply Is increased. Some genius of figures estimates that the corn crop of Missouri for 1907 would fill 8,000,000 farm wagons, which. If hitched close together, would make a chain that would reach around the world. All good sheep feeders have gcod racks and feed boxes or troughs. A flock may live If fed on ground, but nothing less than keen hunger will prompt so delicate an animal to take Its feed from the wet and filth of a yard The tax commissioners of some western states are now trying to find out whether they can tax land which was previously entirely worthless, but which through the expenditure of large sums of money 'for Irrigation has beeii brought to large fertility. In spite of the fact that Professor Milton Whitney says that there is enough land east of the Missouri river to sustain the population for the next fifty years, a Texas drainage system is expected to reclaim 10,000,000 acres which lie along the coast. The first butterfly farm was estab lished about ten years ago by William Watklns, a famous English entomol oglst, at Eastbourne, England. There are now many similar farms iu France and other countries. The object of these farms is to rear silk worms. At the University of Illinois nearly 100 students were last year enrolled In the course of elementary bird study The object of this work is to prevent the needless destruction of birds and to teach farmer. boys how to protect thosewhich are useful to them. The Holstein breeders in their re cent national meeting appointed a committee to secure a federal law for the Inspection of cattle for tubercu losis and to do away with Inspection by the states. There is no question that such a law Would prove advan tageous, j I A Kansas City man who went to a neighboring poultry farm to buy a trio picked out three good-looking birds and tendered a $20 bill In payment, expecting about $10 In change. He almost fainted when he was Informed that the price of the rooster and two hens was $250. Unless the stock is fed. an amount over and above that which Is needed for body maintenance there will be no gain. A thousand-pound 6teer has been found by experiment to require daily 15 pounds of timothy hay, 12 pounds of clover hay and seven pounds of corn meal Just to keep on an even keel. More must be fed if there is to be any gain. If a neighbor asks us to do an errand or two while in town why be grumpy? We may want to ask a favor ourselves next day or next week. And. by the way, some men have a knack of doing a troublesome act for a neighbor In such a manner as to create the Impression fiat It Is the one thing that gives him great pleasure. That is a fine g'ft and we cannot cultivate It too much. It seems at the present time that the graduates of the state agricultural schools of the country are finding no trouble in getting located. The young man who knows the science of good farming and how to apply it commands $75 to $100 a month, with his board and lodging, and lives easily, comfortably and wholesomely. The farmer, who can do so, should give his sons the education that will thus lift them to the heights of their occupation. Young men trained so that they can command such financial returns for their services to others can use their scientific training to still greater profit for themselves. The scientific farmer, who is worth $100 or $150 a mouth to another man, is worth $200 to $300 to himself If he apply Bclence to his own soil. Fruit and Sogar for Hornea. Grain is not the only food on which the horse thrives. In Egypt, the Khedive's best marcs are fed largely on currants, and these animals are noted for their endurance and speed. Figs, during the fig harvest, form the food cf the horses of Smryna ; they turn to It from oats or hay. In Tasmania peaches and in Arabia dates take the place of the usual hay and oats, corn and bran The green tops of the sugar cane ar fed to the horses of the West Indies,

Medicinal Properties of Vegetables.

Vegetables have medicinal properties. Tomatoes act on the liver, spinach on the kidneys, so does asparagus; all kinds of greens purify the blood. Let tuce and cucumbers cool the system and celery Is excellent for tKth rheu matism and the nerves. A soup made with onions Is regarded by the French as a restorative in cases of debility and weakness of the digestive organs. Leeks and garlic promote digestion, and It is said that beet root gives i energy and cheerfulness. Farming "No Sr.ap." I often see wild yarns telling how a mechanic with $3C0 to $400 can make a good living on a few acres of land or a stenographer or school teacher can earn enough to support a family with chickens on a town lot. Teople who are ignorant of the farm ing business are often induced by these silly stories to throw up their Jobs and try it. Any kind of farming is serious business and requires a lot of technical knowledge, and It cannot le learned In a day or a year. If a mechanic is so situated that he can get a piece of land near his job on which he can experiment, keeping close to the payroll at the factory meantime. he will be able to tell in a year or two whether it is a good thing or not. Go very 6low and when you venture on farming or chicken ralsiug, stick close to some other kind of a job that will keep the meal tub supplied till you are sure you can succeed. Then go at It for all you are worth.--Exchange. Fraetlcal IMgeon Hints. Tlgeons must have grit. Don't for get that There should be one bath pan for every twelve pair of birds. Hemp seed is one of the best stimirlants known for pigeons. Thomas Wright says a pigeon's prime of life is from 5 to I) years of age. Green food Is a luxury, but not a necessity. It Is advised not to feed let tuce to p'geons. Never catch a bird In the daytime un less absolutely necessary. This alone will make tame birds wild. Never feed one kind of grain exclu sively.

The change frcm whole to skim milk In feeding the calf 6hould be made by withholding a small amount of milk the first day, more the second, and so on. The amount withheld is thus grad ually increased from day to day. An amount of sklra milk must be added. at least equal In quantity of new milk withheld, until the change has been completed. Some substances should be added as soon as the change Ugius that will supply an equivalent to the, fat con talned In the new milk withheld. No substance has been found superior for such use to linseed meal, that is, ground flaxseed. Oil meal will answer the same purpose, and is far more frequently led than ground flax, for the reasou probably that It is relative ly cheaper. When the latter Is used it Is necessary to fcc( a larger quau tity than the former. In sme Instances the meal thus added is stirred in the milk, but In other Instances, as wheu the calves have learned to take meal before the change from, new to sklin milk has begun, it is simply added to the meal. Sometimes the flaxseed is made into a Jelly, and this fed along with the milk. Thls practice was common years ago, but it is not so much practiced now, since separator milk has come to be so extremely available. The Jelly was usually warmed before it was put Into the milk, and this helped to warm the latter when cold. The amount to be fed may le regulated for a time, at least, by the Influence that the meal or the jelly exercises on the digestion. If too much Is fed, the di gestion will be unduly lax. Pi 'rof. Thomas Shaw. Care of Horses. While grass is the best condition powder in the world, it must be given in very small doses at first until the horsp gets xised to It. It is much better to let a horse get his grass from the pasture In his own way than to cut It and place It in his manger for him. If horses are allowed to run In the pasture at 'night they should be provided with shelter to which they can go In case of storms. A wet hide is conducive to much trouble. In spite of the general lellef that all mules are born stubborn and vicious It Is not true. If right care is used In breaking the mule when young he can be made Just as gentle and useful as a horse. Most bad mules are the result of bad breaking. Did you ever notice that a new collar which fits perfectly in the spring may be too large In a week? This is Ik cause a horse's shoulders shrink whn suddenly put to hard work when he is soft. A sore neck Is Invarably the result of an Ill-litting collar. If the old horse shows a ravenous appetite all the time but does not get fat you may be pretty sure his teeth are bad and that he Is unible to properly chew his food. Get busy with a file. The Inside of the horse stable should be kept clean with whitewash. It Is not right to bring a horse lu from the bright sunlight and shut him up in a dark stable for more than a few hours, particularly in the day time. Some horses are so fastidious that they will not lie down in filthy straw, and thus fall to get the needed rest. If he works hard he deserves a good, clean bed. A horse's stomach Is small and he should be fed often. He will begin to lose flesh the moment be goes hungry. There is a great difference between a good feeder and a greedy feeder. The latter bolts his feed because he Is fn too big a hurry to get away with It. Put some large pebbles In his feed box id let blm nose arounl for his grub.

Itching eruptions formed on the backs of their heads which were simply covered. I tried almost everything, but failed. Then my mother recommended the Cuticuri Remedies. I washed my children's heads with Cutlcura Soap and then applied the wonderful ointment. Cuticura. I did this four or fhe times and I ran say that they have boon entirely cured. I have another baby who is so plump that the folds cf skin ou his neck were broken and even bled. I used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment and the next morning the trouble had disappeared.

"I think everybody knows that Queen Victoria was a fine singer aud a good pianist, and the late Trince Consort was most zealous in iopularizing the art in this country.

Estat Orrlreii Revenue from Dia trracefal and I'nheal'hy Tenements. Trinity church is the holder of one of the greatest estates In New York or In the country, says Charles E. Ruseell in Everybody's. It owns In the city property worth, according to different estimators, from &W,U00,000 to $lAO00,(0O, from which It draw an cuormous revenue, the amount of which is never made public. For many years no Investigator has been able to obtain any more definite knowledge of these matters than that this Is the wealth of Trinity which she holds for good purposes. How eomes It that on the east side of New York have been built In recent years bright, clean, fireproof and sanitary flats, in such numbers that certain regions have been transformed by them, and life for those that dwell In them has been changed from dirtiest misery to something almost suggestive of decency, while Trinity has done nothing of the kind? How 'comes it that the Astor estate, owner of huudreds of tenements, has pursued for years one settled policy of Improvements for the benefit of the tenants, and the Trinity tenants have been left to shift for themselves? The Astor estate maintains no chari ties, It has no missions, no hospitals, no beds and no Sunday school extensions; yet I am perfectly certain that the balance of actual good in the world Is. In its favor; I am perfectly certain that to obliterate one court that breeds tuberculosis is letter than to spend $70,COO a year on organ music, and that to provide a tenement with fire escapes Is better than to preach a sermon of remote and genteel theology. The management of the Astor tenements Indicates what even a small measure of civ- ! ilizatlon can do in the midst of barbar ous conditions; the management of the Trinity tenements shows what callous neglect can do to further and aggravate barbarous conditions. To be sure, all tenement houses are bad, I know that; all tenement houses are terrific indictments of the conditions of grab and gain and splendor and shame that we tolerate. And if the tenement, speaking gonerally, works ill. Trinity's tenements must be a matter of grave concern to us all. Trinity's tenements must work more than common ill, for they are the worst tenements In New York.
