Williams’ Pink Pills. Mr. Kenney has actually escaped from the paralytic’s fate to which he seemed a short time ago hopelessly doomed. The surprising report has been fully verified and some important details secured in a personal interview with the recent suf- he doctor,” said Mr. Kenney, ‘‘told me that if I wanted to live any length of time I weuld have to give up work al- together, and he told my friends thai the-para’ s which had begun would in time involve my whole body.”” «Just how were you afflicted at this time ?”’? Mr. Kenney was asked. ‘+ Well, I had first hot, and then cold and clammy fe gs, and at times my body felt as if needles were being stuck into it. These seusations were followed by terrible pains, and again I would have no feeling at all, but a numbness would come over me, and I would not be able te move. The most agonizing tortures came from hea‘laches and a pain in the spine. “ Night after night I could not get my natural sleepand my system was wrecked by the strain of torturing pains and the effect of the opiates I was forced to take to induce sleep. As I look back on the terrible suffering I endured during this period I often wonder how I retained my reason through it all. «But relief came quickly when } was induced to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People.

The im- petus for the rise furnished by Europe and our response was a reflection of the strength of Liyerpool and the con- tinental markets, aided by a wild seram- bie of shorts to get to cover. Red revolution is only thinly disguised under the mask of labor troubles in the jand of the czar. The railroad strike has tied up transportation lines so that no wheat is available for export, and as a irect result the demand of the world is centered on the United States and Cana- dian supplies of wheat. We advised buying when the market was at a somewhat lower level and there is nothing in prospect to cause us to change our views in the slightest, unless it is to make our conviction as to the value of wheat as an investment even stronger.

Green manuring in our opinion is advisable in that it has the above mechanical value and at the same time helps to retard the sure impoverish- ment following the selling of crops and animal products. Good Farm Machinery. The American farmer is leading the world to-day because he has a vast domain of rich soil and because con- ditions have forced him to adopt ma- chines to help him in his work. In some parts of the world agriculture is still dependent on hand labor, and the returns from the land are small. The farm laborer is poorly paid because he is able to produce little. After all, it is what a man produces that counts, and prices gradually come to that basis. Had the American farmer re- fused to adopt new machines, as have the farmers of some other lands, we would still be a poor nation, and the farmer would be hardly more than the peasant he is in other lands. But the American farmer has had the genius of his race and has been forward to try every new thing. He has been so forward that the confi- dence man has found him an easy be- ing to fleece; but it is better to be fleeced once in a while than to make no progress at all. ‘Every new ma- chine that appears on the market should be thoroughly investigated be- fore purchase or rejection. Happily at this time we have sixty experiment Stations, at each one of which are men that understand farm machinery. At some of these stations are large col- lections. of farm machinery, and’ in several instances agricultural schools have courses including the study of farm machinery. Any farmer that wants information concerning a new or an old machine can get it by writ- ing to the experiment station of his state. The experimenters are a little backward about condemning or ap- proving machines, because they do not care to have their reports used as advertisements, but the inquirer that is playing fair can usually find out what he wants to about the quality of amachine. This is especially true of machines that have little or no merit. The American farmer has made progress by this readiness to use farm machinery, and he will make further progress in the same way. Good farm {machinery is more abundant to-day than ever before, and we believe that there are fewer poor machines on the market than ever before. This is a cause for congratulation on the part of the American farmer. Md Plum Seedlings. Frederic Cranefield of Wisconsin says that 90 per cent of the seedlings of any variety of plums will fruit earlier than the parent. The best varieties produce the best seedlings, but show a great dif- ference in the uniformity of their seedlings, or in their varietal dif- ferences. Thus the seedlings from the Quaker differ but little’ from their’ parent, while the seedlings from the Wild Goose show a multitude of types. The permanent pasture may be made one of the most profitable pieces of Jand on the farm. Silage as a Feed Reserve. The man that has a good many milech cows knows the advantages of having always on hand a-large supply of gdod feéd. One of the great ob- stacles in the way of successful dairy- ing is the unevenness of the season. Some years there is an abundance of pasturage and an abundance of grass in the meadows, which is made into cheap and nutritious hay. But there are other years when the pastures ate dry and consequently short, and the crops in the meadow are so small that before the winter is half over the farmer has to buy feed or sell part of his cows. Too often the profits of one season are eaten up by the losses in another season. As a usual thing the farmer or dairy- man that is caught short on his feed tries to keep along by feeding straw mixed with ground feed. He imagines that he is saving the loss that. would be occasioned by ‘the purchase of hay} at fancy prices. In fact he is losing heavily in the feeding of such make- shifts, for the amount of fiber that has to be digested is so abnormally high that the little nutriment in the straw costs too much to make it pay to try to get it out. How much better for the farmer to have always on hand a large supply of a nutritious feed such as silage. There are years when the weather con- ditions are such that an immense amount of silage can be grown on & small area of ground. Some of our enterprising dairymen carry silage con- tinually in their silos, and when the corn crop of one year ts being harvest- ed they are still using silage from the lot put in the preceding year. The more silos built the better is it for the man that is trying to conduct business profitably. Doubtless silage carried for two and three years will be found to be as good as silage used at the end of a few months. One dairy- man tells me that he prefers silage a year old for his cows and that they always drop on their milk yield when he changes from old to new silage, showing that they find the old silage the more digestible—John Stinson, Bureau Co,, Ill., in Farmers’ Review. The Combination Cow.” There is incessant warfare between the specialists in cow breeding and the man who wants a cow that is both a beef-maker and milk-maker. First the combination cow was called a general purpose cow, then a dual pur- pose cow, and now some one has hit upon the name given above. While the specialist is right in some things, he is wrong in others, Certainly the man that is producing milk with the idea of selling it must produce that milk from the cow that will make it as cheaply as possible, and this he will find among the distinctly dairy cows. But there is a place for the combina- tion cow. On the high priced land in Illinois and adjoining states the man who is producing beef cattle is learn- ing that it is impossible to make money by producing beef cattle alone. He must utilize the milk-giving power of his cows as much as _ possible. Therefore he wants a cow with a beef form and deep powers of milk-giving. These kinds of cows are in existence. They are not suitable to go into the dairy, but are suitable as an adjunct to beef making. Anthrax Among Cows. Not long ago a man __ that has a large herd of cows and peddles milk in the city of Nash- ville, Tenn., discovered that many of his animals had anthrax. The board of health took up the matter and had the diseased cows slaughtered and their carcasses burned. The rest were vaccinated and a rigid quarantine maintained for a time, with the hope of preventing the spread of the dis- ease to other herds. Anthrax is a most deadly disease and is communi- cable to mam. As soon as it appears in a neighborhood every precaution should be taken against it. If the ani- mals are buried they should be sur- rounded with quicklime, that is, un- slaked lime, that all germd may be de- stroyed. If the carcasses are buried without this precaution the germs will work up through the soil and the grass and other animals feeding there or eating the dried hay cut from that place will take the disease. ‘Selling Cream. The business of cream selling is in- creasing. There is a constant demand for cream, and the farmer can general- ly make more out of it if he is near a market than he can by selling either milk or butter. Generally he will get as much for the cream as he would for the milk and cream if he sold them together, or he will get as much for'the cream’as he will for the butter. He is relieved from the trouble of mak- ing the butter, and he has the skim milk to use on his farm. This skim milk is of great value for food in his own family and also of large feeding value for the animals of the farm. We have had reports from different people selling cream, and they agree in de- claring that it is one of the best ways of making money out of the dairy cow. Vaccination for Anthrax. There has been an outbreak of anthrax in Rome, Italy, and the veterinarians have been vacci according to the Pasteur method for preventing the spread of the disease. The results were fairly good with small doses. The work was effective when combined with the careful destruction of all carcasses of animals dying of anthrax. jimpulsive declarations when inquired ‘LAW URGED BY SELF-SEEKERS. Remedies Deservedly Populai An adroit but plausible scheme by _| which it is hoped to prejudice the sale of proprietary medicines is the propo- sition to prohibit the sale of any rem- edy which “contains poison” unless each package or bottle is expressly. labeled “Poison.” Such bills are also well designed to impose upon men who have no familiarity with the sub- ject matter. The pretense of protect- ing. the public health put forth in sup- port of such bills is generally the merest subterfuge; and when ever you hear a demand for a law of this kind it originates with those who have a direct pecuniary interest to serve by destroying the sale of proprietary rem- edies. Some of the best and most widely used remedies in, the world contain some one ingredient which, if taken in sufficient quantities, might be poi- sonous, and yet the preparation as a whole is not poisonous at all. Opium, for instance, is used in small quanti- ties in many of the best cures for coughs, colic, diarrhea, ete., in tooth- ache drops and in almost all liniments. To require such medicines to be false- ly labeled “poison” would be merely a cunning device to alarm the public and thus bring about the destruction of the sale of those remedies, and in- directly to compel people to procure the medicine they want by the more expensive method of consulting a phy- sician and getting his prescription. In other words, it is an effort to prevent them from getting cheaply the reme- dies which they and their fathers be- fore them have used for many years.— Medical exchange. AN OUTSPOKEN JURYMAN. Forcible Expression of Opinion as to the Prisoner’s Guilt. George Washington Brown, an eccen- tric cousin of old Ossowattomie, lived at Coldwell, Ohio, and being a sub- stantial citizen was often drawn but seldom served on a jury, because of his of as to his preconceived opinions. One day a man charged with grand larceny was on trial and Brown was called from among the bystanders to a seat in the jury box. Brown bolted in and sat down. Counsel for the pris- oner rose and made the usual inquiry of him: “Have you formed or express- | ed an opinion touching the guilt of the prisoner at the bar?” the answer being; of course, simply yes or no. Brown electrified the court room by shouting back: “Yes, sir; he’s guilty as hell.” He was excused, amid roars of laugh- ter.

As one woman expressed it, when told by her physician that she must undergo an operation. she felt that her death knell had sounded. Our hospitals are full of women who are there for ovarian or womb operations! It is quite true that these troubles may reach a stage where an operation is the only resource, but such cases are much rarer than is generally supposed, because a great many women have been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound after the doctors had said an operation must be per- formed. In fact, up to the point where the knife must be used to secure instant. relief, this medicine is certain to help. The strongest and most grateful statements possible to make come from women who, by taking Lydia E. Pink- Vegetable Compound, have escaped serious operations. Margrite Ryan, Treasurer of St. An- drew's Society, Hotel English, Indian- apolis, Ind. writes of her cureas follows: Dear Mrs, Pinkham:— “Teannot find words to express my thanks for the good Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound did me. The doctor said I could wn and female troubles. I knew I could not stand thestrain of an operation and made Hearing how Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound had saved other women from serious operations I decided to try it, and ix less than four months I was entirely cured; and words fail to express my thankfulness.” Miss Margret Merkley of 275 34 Street, Milwaukee, Wis., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— “Loss of strength, extreme nervousness, severe shooting pains through the pelvic organs, cramps, ring down pains, and extreme irritation compelled me to seek medical advice. The doctor. after making an examination, said that [had ovarian trou- ble and ulceration, and advised an operation as my only hope.
