SE ee ss — = _ SRR DS NRA ee ee A TRULY, IDEAL WIFE HER HUSBAND'S BEST_HELPER ecco ee Ae Source of i ‘Women Should Seek It. One of the most noted, successful and richest men of this century, in a recent article, has said, ‘‘ Whatever I am and whatever success I have attained in this world I owe all to my wife. From the day I first knew her she has been an inspiration, and the greatest help- | mate of my life.” a To be such a successful wife, to re- tain the love and admiration of her husband, to inspire him to make the most of himself, should be a woman’s constant study. If a woman finds that her energies are flagging, that she gets easily tired, dark shadows appear under her eyes, as backache, headaches, bearing- pains, nervousness, irregularities e blues, she should start at once ild up her system by a tonic with fic powers, such as Lydia E.

The in- 3 been particularly noticeable was formerly known as the st Territories, but which, on ber ist, 1905, became the prov- inces of Alberta and Saskatchewan. From the official returns we find the following results in the acreage sown to wheat, oats and barley, in the years mentioned, and a more favor- owing cannot be pointed to other country during a like Wheat. Oats. Barley. 898 - -807,580 105,077 17,092 134,938 14,276 175,429 17,044 229,439 24,702 310,367 36,445 440,662 68,974 523,634 98,154 every year except 1900, when there ap- pears to have been a slump all along the line. This, however, was more than compensated tor in the following year, when the bumper crop in wheat, oats and barley put the returns of all previous years completely in the shade and gave an impetus to settlement in the west which has prevailed to the present, as the following table by bushels will show: Wheat. Oats. Barley. 1898 .. 5,542,478 3,040,307 449,512 1899 .. 6,915,623 4,686,036 337,521 1900 .. 4,028,294 4,226,152 353,216 1901 ..12,808,447 11,113,066 795,100 3,956,850 10,661,295 970,417 - -16,029,149 14,179,705 1,842,824 -16,875,537 16,332,551 2,205,434 it will be seen that the number of acres sown to wheat, oats and barley in 1898 was 429,749, and that this had increased in 1904 to 1,587,337. The total crop in the cereals mentioned was 9,033,297 bushels in 1898, and in 1904 it had grown to the magnificent total of 35,413,522. In the year just closed the “forward movement” in the agriculture of the west has been the wonder and envy of the world. New sections of the country have been placed under tribute to the plow and harrow, and the grain area has been largely increased. This is par- ticularly the case where it has been demonstrated that “Alberta Red” win- ter wheat may be successfully grown, and along the lines of the new rail- ways towards the centre of the coun- try, where mixed farming prevails. The future of the Canadian West ts assured, and for years to come it ts bound to be the land of promise to the agriculturist of every nation and et every clime, and ‘he land of oppor- tunity to every settler within its bounds.

This is a large un- dertaking to the farmer that knows nothing about the work, but after the method is learned it becomes a very small matter to test the milk as often as necessary. Any creamery supply house will sell a farmer a good milk tester for from $5 to $10. Some have been manufactured and sold as low We do not recommend them for the reason that they do not hold enough bottles to test the milk of more than three or four cows at one time. It is cheaper to have a larger tester and thus test the milk of all the cows at one time. The saving of labor is very great, and this is a large item on the American farm. A milk tester is a machine that is sup- plied with bottles for the holding of milk. These bottles are small and so balanced that when the whole set of them are revolved in the machine at a@ great speed, they assume a horizon- tal position, the mouths of the bottles being turned toward the center of the machine. Then sulphuric acid is put into them, and with the whirling this causes a separation of the butter fat from the rest of the contents of the bottle. When the whirling is done, the bottles are taken out and the but- ter fat is found in the neck of the bot- tle. Each bottle is marked with the per cent of butter fat, and a person can read at a glance just what per cent of butter fat the milk contains. The great advantage about this test- ing is that the farmer has some means by which he can always know the value of the cows he is keeping. This further enables. him to continue to dispose of the poorest, which means a continual improvement of his herd. | Effects of Feeding Bone Meal. Under the systems of feeding cows practiced in the corn belt, there is often a weakness of bone develop- ment, which may be obviated by the feeding of bone meal. This is espe cially true in the case of young and growing animals. At some of our ex- periment stations, bone meal has been fed quite extensively, and the results on the bones of the animals have been very good. This has been demon- started by breaking the bones of the animals after slaughter. The bones of the same size broke much more easily when the animals had been grown chiefly on corn than where they had been fed an additional ration of bone meal. A strong bone is of great value with the dairy cows. Many of the severe accidents that are re- ported relate to the breaking of bones. In many cases the bones of our cows are broken from a fall or a blow too slight to cause such accidents, if the bones were of good material. When a cow has broken a bone it is some- times necessary to kill her, and as the first class dairy cow is worth little for beef, the loss falls very heavily on the dairyman. A little bone meal now and then will cost little, but it will furnish some of the elements that go to the making of firm bone. Grading Up the Herd. My practice is to grade up our herd by using the best pure bred sires of the same breed that we can secure. The heifer calves are all raised by hand on skim milk, alfalfa hay and grain. This is the practice now in use by many of our dairy farmers. In some communities, the farmers sell their cows when well along in lacta- tion and replenish from the surround- ing farms. However, such farmers are not dairymen, but only cow-keep- ers, and do very little to stimulate the business. By my method and the use of scales and Babcock tester, any farmer can in a few years have prac- tically a high-working, pure-bred herd of dairy cattle. By that time they will have buildings and will have learned how to handle such animals. Pure-bred dairy stock requires good handling. I wish I might show you the im- provements that have been affected at this institution in some of our stock by the use of pure-bred sires. Breed- ing is one-half of the question and care is the other. The two must go hand in hand. We hear a great deal about pure-bred dairy cattle, but too little about pure-bred dairy men.

When growing and in calf fatten her up and give plenty of succulent feed so as to develop her udder. Give plenty of exercise and win her confidence and love. ’Tis possible to develop cows when the soiling system is practiced, but constant attention is required. Nothing surpasses good pasture. To begin with a long list of good ances- tors for the best results is most im- portant.—E. T. Gill, Camden Co., N. J. The Ben Davis apple tree comes nearer to being an annual bearer than any other. Most varieties of apple trees have the habit of bearing every other year. The dropping of apples is caused largely by lack of pollenation. Lightning very seldom strikes twice in the same place—probably because the place isn’t there. RELEASED Pneumonia Followed La Grippe— Pe-ru-na the Remedy That Brought Relief. Mr. T.

For people who are run-down and nerv- ous, who suffer from indigestion or dys- epsia, headache, biliousness, or torpid fiver, coated tongue with bitter taste in the morning and poor appetite, it be- comes necessary to turn to some tonic or strengthener which will assist Nature and help them to get on their feet and ut the ae into its proper condition. It is becoming more and more apparent that Nature’s most valuable health - giving agents are to be found in forest plants and roots. now consulting physician to the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y., discovered that by scientifically extracting and combining certain medici- nal principles from native roots, taken from our American forests, he could pro- duce a medicine which was marvelously efficient in curing cases of blood disorder and liver and stomach trouble as vrell as many other chronic, or lingering ail- ments. ‘his concentrated extract of Nature’s vitality he named “Golden Med- ical Discovery.” It purifies the blood by parang. the stomach and liver into ealthy condition, thereby helping the digestion and assimilation of food which feeds the blood.

Would Scratch and Tear the Flesh Un: less Hands Were Tied—“Would Have Died. But for Cuticura.” “My little son, when about a year and a half old, began to have sores come out on his face. I had a physi- cian treat him, but the sores grew worse. Then they began to come on his arms, then on other parts of his body, and then one came on his chest, worse than the others. Then I called another physician. Still he grew worse. At the end of about a year and ahalfof suffering he grew so bad I had to tie his hands in cloths at night to keep him from scratching the sores and tearing the flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton, and was hardly able to walk. My aunt advised me to try Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I sent to the drug store and got a cake of the Soap and a box of the Oint- Ment, and at the end of about two | months the sores were all well. He has never had any sores of any kind | since.
