As the foal grows, the crusied oats may be changed to whole cats, and a small amount of ground corn added. A ration of corn and oats, one-half each by weight, does well, but the bran helps regulate the digestion. They relish the whole oats, as will be evidenced by the fact that the bran will be frequently found remaining after the oats have been eaten. The only objection to whole oats for young foals is that they are not so easily di- gested as crushed oats. If the mares snd foals are running on pasture, there will be no need of roughage, but if they are kept up, a little green feed, clover or alfalfa hay put where the foal can eat it at his leisure will be helpful. MILK FEVER TREATMENT By A. C. Page, College of Agricul ture, University of Mis- souri. A scrub cow is in very little danger of milk fever, It always picks out the ‘test caw in the herd. A high bred, hight producing cow is likely to be affected. ‘The condition most favorabie to milk fever is found in the high-pro- ducing cow which has been well fed and kept in high condition just pre- vious to calving. Her blood is full of the materials which go to make milk when she freshens. ‘he better her condition, the more danger there is of an attack. A heifer having her first calf is not likely to be troubled with this dis- case, because it usually follows a repid and easy delivery, which is not common to young heifers. An attack rarely follows a long, difficult labor. The first symptoms of milk fever come within a few hours after the calf is born. The cow shows the com- mon signs of fever, is uneasy, and without appetite. In a very short time she will begin to show the paralysis which is characteristic of this disease. In a little while she will sway back and forth as if drunk, and soon be- come unable to stand. The paralysis passes gradually to the other parts of the body, the cow being partly uncon- scious. If she is not treated, death grain should be changed twice a day Restored to Health by Lydia E, Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound A woman who is sick and suffering, and won’t at least try a medicine which has the record of Lydia E, Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, is, it would almost seem, to blame for her own wretchedness. Read what this woman says: Richmond, Mo. — “ When my second daughter was cighteen months old I was pronounced a hopeless invalid by specialists. Thad a consultation of doctors and they said I had a severe case of ulceration. I was in bed for ten weeks, had sinking spells, and was pronounced to be in a danger ondition. My father insisted that we try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and brought me six bottles. I soon began to improve, and be- fore it had all been taken I was as well and strong as ever,—my friends hardly recognized me so great was the change.” — Mrs. Woodson Branstetter, Richmond, Mo. t There are literally hundreds of thousands of women in the United States who have been benefited by this famous old remedy, which was produced from roots and herbs over thirty years ago by a woman to reliete woman's suffering. Read what another woman says: — Jonesboro, Texas. — “I have used Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegeta- ble Compound for myself and daughter, and consider it une- qualled for all female diseases. FI would not be without it for anything. I wish every mother in America could be persuaded to use it as there would be less suffering among our sex then. Tam always glad to speak a word of praise for Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound, and you are at liberty to use this testimonial.”—Mrs. James T. Lawrence, Jonesboro, Texas. Since we guarantee that all testimonials which we pub- lish are genuine, is it not fair to suppose that if Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound had the virtue to help these women it will help any other woman who is suffering from the same trouble ? For 30 years Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has been the standard remedy for female ills. No sick woman does justice to in order to prevent scouring, Any time between five and eight months of age will be a suitable time for weaning. A very successful meth- od is as follows: Take a foal away from the mare, and, if possible, put two or three of | them together in a light, clean and roomy box stall, Place the accus- tomed grain and hay ration before them. Keep the mare far enough away from the foal so that neither may see or hear the other, and with- in three or four days they will have practically forgotten their former rela- lion. In many cases, weaning may be accomplished without any noticeable loss in weight on the part of the foal. | should be supported from the ground ; by a clean cloth or towel on some | straw. Sterilize the milking tube be- | fore inserting in the teat, und do not {touch it to anything which might leave a particle of dirt or infection ;on ft. Pump up each quarter until it jis tense, but not strained with the pressure. In some cases it will be necessary to tie the end with a cord | or tape to keep the air in. This treatment should be started as ,s00n as the cow shows the syiuptoms, {und kept up persistently until she is jon her feet again. It will ordinarily \take only a few hours. It ia well to notice, when she is up again, that her Cigestion is working properly. It it is not, half a pound or more of Epsom salts will help. GOOD SHED FOR WINTER There is no way in which tie straw can be used to much better advantage than by building a straw-sned. This is a very inexpensive structure, and the calves or other stock will appre- ciate it in the winter, The uprights are most easily made from forks of trees set in the ground. Poles are laid through these, and crop on account of not being able to! buy a mower or to borrow one at the; particular time it was needed. “You may ask how we got these re- | markable results—for example, the} corn crop. First, we put our corn on a field that had had cowpeas on it the} year before, the first ever grown on, the farm We lapdisked the corn; herself who will not try this famous medicine. from roots and herbs, and has thousands of cures to its credit.

We paid $3 a bushel for} the best seed corn we could buy, test- ed it carefully, and knew that 98 per cent of it would grow. Cultivation did not stop when we field with the team, but continued with one horse. Cowpeas were plant- ed in the corn with a hand planter} when the corn was about four to six) inches high; in fact, everything that we knew of that could contribute to a/ successful yield of corn was done for, this crop. We applied some fertilizer, | but in a way that we could get a! check on the results of its use. “Results on this little farm show | | had to leave the | WITH DEMOCRATS | Sugar Magnate, a Lifelong Republican, Joins Progressive Ranks. New York, Nov. 4.--Claus A. Spreckels, head of the Federal Sugar Refining Company and the most un- | compromising foe of the Sugar Trust in this country announced to-day that, although a lifelong Republican, he has decided to quit that party and align himself with the progressive Democ- racy. , conclusively that successful farming | does not consist of the doing of just) one thing well—for instance, the pur-| chase of pure bred seed—but the doing of every farm operation in the best} possible way known. Successful farming is everyday; farming. The successful farmer is the| one who spares no pains to get the | best and do the best. He does not have “his wishbone- where his back- bone ought to he.” Business farming means head as well as back farming. We can tell to a penny what it cost us to produce every crop on this farm, and we know which ones paid us the best From these figures we have a positive basis for future operations. 1 am often asked how we obtained such results in one year. It was the work done every day, it was the plan- ning done every night, it was the re- sult of the reading put into practice—| it was business farming. | Some think it is necessary for us to} turn upside down every practice andj method that we find being followed | when we take the direction of a farm. | This is very far from the truth. It is| seldom that we make any sweeping | changes. More often, by far, simply adjustment is needed. | Here is a farmer growing crops that | are making very satisfactory yields, | Mr. Spreckels furthermore asserted that the majority of business men of large affairs among his acquaintances, who, like himself have staunchly sup- ported Republican principles and can- didates with their influence and their money for years, have turned their back upon their old political affiliation and are preparing to give active aid to Democratic success in the nation next year. “The present industrial and _politi- cal condition of the country shows that the time for a complete change at Washington, -both in the executive and legislative branches of the Gov- ernment, has said = Mr. Spreckels. “What special cause has contribut- ed to this sudden shift of so large an element of Republicans of big busi- ness affairs from the Republican to the Democratic party?’’ Mr. Spreck- els was asked. “The tariff, mainly,’’ he replied, “but particularly the jockeying Presi- dent Taft has been doing with that great question. Thousands of us supported our party the last campaign because we believed it was honestly committed to tariff revision down- ward. “After we gave of our money and time to retain the party in control at Washington, we were informed through the Payne-Aldrich abomina- tion that what we really had pledged in our platform was revision upward.

Farm 3 miles east of .qButler. J. W. Barnhart - Butler, Mo. as a will soon occur, Only a few years ago, inilk fever was known as a fatal disease. Half a dozen remedies were tried, but they all failed most of the time. Now, how- ever, there is a simple treatment which is almost a sure cure. Its re- tults are rapid, and the cow suon re- covers. The principle of tbe new treatment is the injection of air into the udder. No one can explain just why this does the work, but it does. Any kind of an air pump may be used. to administer the treatment. Usually a bicycle pump can be found in: a hurry if no other kind is avail- able. The chief precaution to be ob- sérved is in keeping dirt frow enter- ing the udder either in the air pumped in or on the milking tube used. The first may be accomplished try filtering the air through cotton soaked in carbolic acid. A couvenient apparatus may be made for this pur- pose by using a wide-mouthed bottle with a two-hole cork, and two pieces of tubing. The tube leading ivto the bottle should be below the surface of The Missouri Potatoes. I have just received a car load of Missouri River bottom potatoes. No better potatoes are grown anywhere, and I am offering them for sale at a close margin to turn them quickly. “$1.20 per bushel, nothing less than 1 sack sold. Come early while they last. _W. J.

It will be found very convenient for any stock that is win- tered outside. This is the year to put up a silo. No other system will save so much of your corn crop and make so much from the same acreage as putting the corn in a silo. It pays at both ends. Jt saves feed and the cattle like it better than dry feed. A silo is- not very expensive, and it will soon pay for itself. that his stock is being handled at al loss.

No home is quite complete without a Perfection Oil Heater. It is a necessity in the fall and spring, when it is too warm to start the regular heating apparatus, and too cool to be without heat. In the midst of winter it is often convenient as an auxiliary heater, as there are always some cold corners in a house. The enameled heater always presents a nice appearance, as the enamel will not tamish or bum off. It is not an “enamel paint,” but it is the same as the enamel of your cooking utensils. The Perfection is the most reliable and convenient portable heating device you can find. An automatically-locking flame spreader prevents turning the wick high enough to smoke. ERFECTIO Smoxceres
