Such was my feeling a few months ago when I was advised that my poor health was caused by prolapsus or falling of the womb. The words sounded like a knell to me, I felt that my.sun had set ; but Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege- table Compound came to meas an elixir of life ; it restored the lost forces and built me up until my good health returned to me. For four months I took the medicine daily, and each dose added health and strength. I am so thankful for thehelp I obtainedthrough its use.”-—Mrs. FLORENCE DANFORTH, 1007 Miles Ave., St. Joseph, Mich. — —$5000 forfeit if original of above letter proving genuineness cannot be produced. “FREE MEDICAL ADVICE TO WOMEN.” Women would save time and much sickness if they would write to Mrs. Pinkham foradvice as soon as any distressing symp- toms appear.

The profitable dairy bull is one that will produce female calves with high milking powers and that will be able to show a great amount of vigor. It 4s not enough that he be able to pro- duce calves with high milking powers. The vigor is an essential point, as under heavy methods of feeding, such @s are now practiced in modern dairies, many of our best developed cows break down, The bull therefore must have in himself every indica- tion of great bodily vigor. The more he has of this, the more likely will he be to impress the same on his off- spring, and place in them the power of continuing his good qualities. It is not at all easy at this time to find the kind of a bull that is likely to have the good points we are looking for. There are a great many poor bulls in service, and their male off- spring are growing up into the bulls that are to be used in the future. We have to-day few herds that we can go to for the right kind of a supply. The carelessness of the public in this regard is shown in the low prices prevailing for bulls. The bull should bring a far higher price than a cow znd yet we find the bulls selling at lower prices. We can but infer that the breeders think that anything is good enough for the male so long as we have first class females. This has been the great obstacle in the way of the improvement of the milking quali- ties of our dairy breeds. A man can afford to pay a fancy price for a bull provided he can get the kind of a bull he really needs. Mold on Parchment Paper. Many of our readers use parchment paper for lining the boxes in which they pack their butter, and now and then they have trouble with mold that appears on it and which not in- frequently gets into the butter. The parchment paper is for the purpose of preventing this very thing. The mold generally gets into the paper when the latter is allowed to lie for some time in ice boxes, refrigerators or storage rooms in which the mold has already developed. The mold cannot grow spontaneously but comes from minute seeds called spores. Un- less these spores were on the paper there could be no growth of mold. When the parchment paper was lying where mold was growing the spores ripened and fell on this paper. If the paper is kept in dry clean places where no mold ever appears it will not in turn develop mold when it is placed in contact with the moisture that comes from the butter. Spores cannot grow without moisture. When such paper has been subject to con- ditions that would make the growing of mold possible the best way to pre- vent the development of the mold is to soak the parchment paper in a strong brine in which has been mixed one pound of formaldehyde to three gallons of brine. This soaking will not injure the parchment paper, but it will kill the spores of the mold. ‘When the same brine is to be used several times in succession it should be boiled between times to make doubly sure that the spores do not escape. Exhibiting Butter. The maker of butter, whether on the farm or in the creamery, fre- quently asks the question if it pays to make an exhibit of butter at any of the various shows where oppor- tunity is given for that kind of a dis- play. It certainly does pay to ex- hibit butter, both for the effect it has on the general public and for the influence on the one making the ex- hibit. The cost of making an exhibit is slight, and the attention of the but- termaker becomes centered on the methods necessary to produce a good article. It is proverbial that every farmer’s wife believes she is one of the best butter makers in the country. The grocer that buys the butter dares not tell her that she does not know how to make butter, if she cannot, but the butter judge at the fair or show will have to give her that information. The movement among farmers’ wives to learn more about buttermaking is @ good one, and every one of them should be encouraged to do her best and send her product to the butter show. The same is true of the cream- ery buttermaker. The managers of the creamery can well afford to pay $10 or whatever it costs to exhibit butter, just for the sake of getting more information on how their own butter looks when judged from the standpoint of the butter judge. Cheese Scoring Contest. The Dairy and Food Commissioner of Minnesota, Mr. W. P. McConnell, has inaugurated a cheese scoring con- test that is to continue six months from May ist. Mr. E. H. Vroman of the commission will be in charge of the contest. Prizes of money and of silver cups are to be awarded. Two expert commercial cheese men will assist Mr. Vroman in making the scor- ings of the cheese to determine the accuracy of the scorings of the con- testants. Many of the managers of cheese factories in Minnesota have ap- plied for permission to enter the con- test. ‘A barbed wire fence is no kind of a fence to have about the cow pas- ture. The teats of more than one cow have been ruined by being lacerated on barbed wire. Other kinds of wire are more serviceable and little more expensive. The Horse Still Popular. The horse industry is to-day in a flourishing condition, little correspond- ing to the predictions of some of our commercial prophets ten years ago. At that time we were told that we were on the eve of a horseless age. To prove it the savants pointed to the thousands of people that were using bicycles. It was said that agents had been placed at the entrances to the great parks in New York and other cities and these counted the thousands of wheelmen and wheelwomen that daily passed through the parks and reported that only now and then a carriage or mounted horseman was seen. That was true ten years ago in all the great cities of the country. But how is it to-day? Sit down at the entrance to any of our great city parks in the summer time and watch the passers-by. There will be seen a steady stream of car- riages, with only now and then a man or woman on a wheel. It is evident that the whéel was only a temporary plaything for the public, and that, when the public grew tired of the wheel it went back to the old friend of man—the horse. Within ten years there has been a material increase in the number of horses in the country and an increase also in the value per head. The de- mand has been greater than the sup- ply, and with the larger use of horses has come an increased rapidity of their wearing out. While the wheels were being so freely used, many of the driving horses in the cities spent much of their time in the barns or in the pastures, but since the public re- turned to the use of the horse the work of the horse has increased, and the consequent wear and tear inci- dent to service and accidents has also increased. The horseless vehicles that have been introduced in the cities are but an insignificant factor in the general situation. Such vehicles are but the playthings of the wealthy or are in service in only a slight degree com- mercially. They in no sense keep pace with the tremendous increase in popu- lation and business that our country is witnessing. The value of horses in the United States is placed by the taxing bodies at more than $1,000,000,- 000, which valuation, as every man knows, is far short of the real, since values for taxing purposes are never anywhere near the actual values. Yet, though the undervaluation is consid- erable, this item of over one billion dollars is an enormous one and gives some idea of the great riches in Horse- flesh possessed by the nation. That farmers should pay more at- tention to the raising of good horses is evident. There is no doubt that the demand for horses in the future is to be even greater than it is at the present time and that any man that raises good horses of almost any kind will be sure to realize good prices for them. Breeding Light Horses. George M. Rommel, of the United States Department of Agriculture says: Stand by the auction ring of any great horse market and observe closely the horses that fail to bring prices sufficient to cover cost of pro- duction. In the great majority of eases trotting blood predominates if any breeding at all is noticeable. Ask a dealer what is the breeding, if any, of most of the large numbers of the unclassified horses on the market, his answer will be: “Trotting and coach blood.” This is not because draft blood is more valuable or that the blood of the light breeds is not want- ed, for the great cry of the market at present is that good drivers and sad- dlers are extremely scarce. It is be- cause performance and style are much more difficult to acquire in breeding than size and weight. It is because men with a fascination for the race track attempt to produce trotters without the slightest regard for na- ture’s laws, and no disappointment or failure seems sufficient to bring them to realize their folly. Breeding to a trotter without system and study, but only in the hope of getting a speedy foal as a possibility or an accident, is “playing with fire.” The breeding of light horses requires not only a con- siderable amount of capital, but de- mands a knowledge of horses of the very highest order. It necessitates concentration of’ effort and years of waiting and planning. It is not every man that brings such qualities to bear when he takes a 1,600-pound draft mare to a 1,200-pound harness or sad- dle stallion, and it is largely because of this, and not on account of the breeds themselves, that so many poor horses are forced onto the market. A high-class roadster, coacher, or sad- dler is by far the most difficult horse to produce that the market calls for. In addition to careful plans of breed- ing and high individual excellence in the resulting progeny, a course of handling, mannering, and training must be pursued before the horse will figure as a really marketable animal. These facts must be thoroughly un- derstood if a man would breed light horses for market. Cold climates are as well suited to the raising of live stock das are tem- perate and warm climates. While herb- age is more abundant in the warm climates and the winters are shorter, yet /most of our farm animals do bet- ter in the cold climates than in the warm, and diseases are less numer- ous. Grass is a greater factor in the North than in the South, for climatic reasons. © For Dyspe If you do not derive prompt and satis- factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case, and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ad- vice gratis.

Catarrh of the Stomach is Generally Called Dyspepsia—Something to Produce Artificial Digestion is Generally Taken. Hence, Pepsin, Pancreatin and a Host » Of Other Digestive Remedies Has Been Invented. These Remedies Do Not Reach the Seat of the Difficulty, Which is Really Catarrh. X. U. 8S, Senator M. C. Butler from South Carolina, was Senator from that State for two terms. In a recent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co., from Washington, D. C., says: «1 can recommend Peruna for dys- pepsia and stomach trouble. I have been using your medicine for a short period and I feel very much relieved. It is indeed a wonderful medicine be- sides a good tonic.’’—M. C. Butler. The only rational way to cure dys- pepsia is toremove the catarrh. Peruna cures catarrh. Peruna does not produce artificial digestion. It cures catarrh and leaves the stomach to perform diges- tion ina natural way. This is vastly better and safer than resorting to arti- ficial methods or narcotics. Peruna has cured more cases of dys- Peres than all other remedies com- ined, simply because it cures catarrh wherever located. ' If catarrh is located in the head, Peruna cures it. If catarrh has fastened itself in the throat or bronchial tubes, Perunacures it. When catarrh becomes settled in the stomach, Peruna cures it, as well in this location as in any other. Peruna is not simply a remedy for dyspepsia. Peruna is a catarrh remedy. Peruna cures dyspepsia because it is generally dependent upon catarrh.
