The Best Tim** To Plow for Coni. It is injurious to plow clover sod, sandy soil or land that is inclined to run together. In the fall, no matter where you are, if you have a clover sod to plow for corn do not plow it until spring. If you want to get all the clover can do for you, the closer breaking and planting come together the better th? crop will start. Seed of any kind will grow better in freshly prepared land, and the clover grows fast in the early spring end all that is turned under is so much gained. Old rough pastures and heavy clay land and land for oats may be plowed to advantage in the fall It would be better then to sow rye. The rye is far hetthr than letting

the land laj T bare.

Time to Sow Oats, and How Much to The Acre.

The best time to sow oats is as buuu .kb j wu. work the soil with disc, spading harrow or cultivator. Harrowing the stalks in land will dry off the land much faster than if left standing. It is not best to plow the ground for oats in the spring, it will be a loss of labor. Sow Eshels of oats to the acre, put in with drill. 2| will be enough, to 3 bushel sown broad

cast.

GRIP TREATMENT.

Grip can be broken up in from oneto three days by the prompt use of Downs’ Elivir. It has done it. It will do it. Try it before pneumonia or consumption sets in. After grip, Baxter’s Mandrake Bitters are nature’s remedy for expelling all grip poisons from the blood, regulating the bowels, strengthening the nerves, and imparting vigor to the system. *•' ’ With these long-tried remedies at hand, the worse case of grip can be conquered. We sell them and guarantee them to do as recommended, or money refunded.

A Remarkable Care.

Xr. Alexander Moore, a reliable bush tt-jss ’r.ai!, of 1230 S. 13th St., Philadelphia, Pa., says: “I contracted a violen. cold which settled all over me. The pain iu my chest and side was excruci ating. The doctor gave me medicine and blistered my side, but I only grew worse. Then you gave me a bottle of Brazilian Balm. I had little or no faith in it, but decided to try it. I took 3or 4 good doses before bed time, and rubbed it well over my blistered side. That night I slept like a top—my first good rest for over a week—and awoke in the morning cured. Brazilian Balm is simply invaluable.”
