And That's a Fact. “Of course, I am sorry for you,” said the girl with the cold storage heart, “but I really cannot wed you. It’s so hard to be poor.” “Ob, I don’t know,” said the philo- sophical young man in the parlor scene. “It isn’t half as hard as it is to get rich.” Good Health! How to get it.

The Best Guaranty of Merit Is Open Publicity. Every bottle of Dr. Pierce’s world- famed medicines leaving the great labo- ratory at Buffalo, N. Y., has printed upon its Sra pnes all the ingredients entering into its composition. This fact alone places Dr. Pierce’s Family Medi- cines in a class all by themselves. They cannot be classed with patent or secret medicines because they are neither. This is why so many unprejudiced physicians prescribe them’ and Peaquateset athens 0 their patients. They know what they are composed of, and that the ingredients are those endorsed by the most eminent medical authorities. The further fact that neither Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, the great stomach tonic, liver invigorator, heart regulator and blood purifier, nor his “Favorite Prescription” for weak, over- worked, broken-down, nervous women, contains any alcohol, also entitles them to a place all by themselves. Many years ago, Dr. Pierce discovered that chemically pure glycerine, of proper strength, is a better solvent and preserv- ative of the medicinal principles resid- ing in our indigenous, or native, medi- cinal plants than is alcohol; and, further- more, that it possesses valuable medicinal properties of its own, being demulcent, you get the nutritive, antiseptic, and a most efficient antiferment. Neither of the above medicines con- tains alcohol, or any harmful, habit- forming drug, as will be seen from a Care at the formula printed on each ttle wrapper. They are safe to use and potent to cure. Not only do physicians prescribe the above, non-secret medicines largely, but the most intelligent people Faye them —people who would not think of using the ordinary patent, or secret medicines. Every ingredient entering into the com: position of Dr. Pierce’s medicines ha: the ae jalg kind of an endorsement from leading medical writers of the several schools of practice. No other medicines put up for like purposes has any such professional endorsement. . Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure con- stipation. Constipation is the cause of ! many diseases.

Love's music is never perfect with- out the chorus of pain. nOres Turnips for Dairy Use. As ordinarily fed, turnips injure the flavor of both milk and butter. This has been demonstrated over and over again at our experiment stations. The strong turnipy flavor that comes into the butter is the product of a volatile oil, which can be driven off by heat- ing the milk to 160 degrees Fahrenheit for a short time. This is the tempera: ture at which pasturization is usually done. There have been a great many men who have claimed that turnips could be fed cows without injury to the milk. Among these dairymen was the late Mr. Hyatt of Wisconsin, who for many years was known as the “Turnip King.” He claimed that tur- nips would not affect the milk if they were fed immediately after milking in the morning and in the evening. In this way the food had twelve hours in which to allow the volatile oil to dis- appear. ‘The difference between vola- tile oil and other kind of oils is that the volatile oil passes through the di- gestive process unaffected and ap- rears in the milk, while other oils un- dergo a chemical transformation. We find that the injury to milk and butter does not apply to turnips only; that the same results are attained by feed- ing cabbages and rape, which is of the cxbbage family. If a man is going to feed turnips and like succulent things he should experiment with them grad- ually that he may find out for himself just what effect they will have upon his milk products. A great many farm- ers could feed turnips to their cows for the reason that the butter is used almost entirely in their own families, and the turnip flavor is not strong enough to be objected to. It is only in general marxets that the turnipy flavor of butter is severely criticised. Slow Churning. In the winter season the people have a great deal of trouble in churning in a reasonable time. ‘ One reason for this is the thinness of the cream in the winter under the careless methods in which milk is set in the farm house. The cream rises very slowly, and when skimmed, contains a very large proportion of milk; such cream churns with great difficulty. The remedy for this is to make the cream thicker by being more careful in skimming. The two reasons for slow churning is that the churns are filled too full of cream. The ordinary barrel churn is used on the farm; if it is filled nearly full the milk does not receive the pounding that it should. The barrel churn should be only one-third full, then when it revolves the cream falls from one end of the barrel to the other and receives a shotk at each end. It is this shock that causes the butter gran- ules to separate from the casein and the other parts of the milk. The next great reason for slow churning is the unknown temperature at which the churning is performed. If the farmer’s wife who does the churning will always have a thermometer at hand, to make sure that the temperature of the cream is about 65 degrees she will avoid this trouble of too low temperature. Some people make the mistake of pouring in cold water as soon as the butter begins to break. This sometimes re- tards the gathering of the butter, Improving Dairy Herds. We in our work ‘at the sta- tion raise heifers from our best cows, and likewise from time to time make purchases. We get more blanks than we do prizes in our breed- ing, and'to keep up our herd occasion- ally purchase. This is the general practice of dairy farmers in this state. Most of them raise their own ani- mals, but buy back and forth more or less. In other words, they aim to im- prove their herds by good breeding, that is to say, the better class of them do, and likewise sell and buy, barter and exchange. How to improve our dairy herds cannot all be stated in a word, but the process, epitomized to the last degree, may be expressed in the following words: Breed, weed, feed, weigh, test, observe, use judg- ment, study relationship of conforma- tion to performance.—J. L. Hills, Di- rector Vermont Experiment Station. Silage from Mixed Crops. Corn and sorghum both contain an excess of carbohydrates, and are de- ficient in protein. To correct this dif. ficulty and balance the nutrients, cow peas and other leguminous crops were grown with them. The peas were planted in the rows with the corn and sorghum, and while a casual inspec- tion of the crop would indicate that a large per cent of peas was obtained, a careful separation of the peas from the corn or sorghum shows that in no instance was there more than 15.1 per cent of peas in the crop, and in some instances only 5 to 6 per cent; so small a percentage as to have no material influence on the composition and feeding value of the silage. Corn and sorghum can be combined so that the resulting silage will consist of about equal percentages of each crop. —Tennessee tation. Cement Floors in Stables. I notice in the Farmers’ Review a discussion in regard to. cement floors in barns. Two years ago. we had a _ cement floor put in our barn here at the college. I would not recommend animals lying on the cement floor without bedding, but consider it one of the best stalls for cattle if kept bedded. I had had no experience here with cement for watering troughs——James M. Wilson, Director South Dakota Experiment _ Station. A Soap Expert.

Awful Sight From That Dreadful Com- plaint, Infantile Eczema—Mother Praises Cuticura Remedies. “Our baby had that dreadful com- plaint, Infantile Eczema, which afflict- ed him for several months, commenc- ing at the top of his head and at last covering his whole body.

In about ninety days he was fully recovered.

Women in Our Hospitals Increases in the Number of Operations Performed Each Year—Fiow Avoid Them. Going through the hospitals in our large cities one is surprised to find such a large proportion of the patients lying on those snow-white ds women and girls, who are either awaiting or recovering from serions operations. Why should this be the case? Si: ply because they have neglected them- ees Female troubles are certainly on the increase among the women of this country—they creep upon them unawares, but every one of those patients in the hospital beds had plenty | of warning in that bearing-down feel- ing, pain at leftorright of theabdomen, nervous exhaustion, pain in the small of the back, dizziness, flatulency, d lacements of the organs or irregula: ities. All of these symptoms are indi- cations of an unhealthy condition of the female organs, and if not heeded the penalty has to be paid bya danger- ous operation. When these symptoms manifest themselves, do not drag along until you are obliged to go to the hos- ital and submit to_an operation— but remember that Lydia E. Pink- ham’'s Vegetable Compound has saved tiousands of women from surgical operations. When women are troubled with ir- regular, suppressed or painful periods, weakness, displacement or ulceration of the organs, that bearing-down feel- ing, inflammation, backache, bloating (or flatulency), general debility, indi- gestion, and nervous prostration, orare beset with such symptoms asdizziness, lassitude, excitability, irritability, ner- vousness, sleeplessness, melancholy, ‘tall-gone” and ‘ want-to-be-left- alone” feelings they should remember Women May The following letters cannot fail to bring hope to despairing women. Miss Ruby Mushrush, of East Chicago, Ind., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— “T have beena great sufferer with periods and female trouble, and about. months the doctor, after using the X-Ray on me, said I had an abcess and would have to have an operation. My mother wanted me to try Lydia E. Pin 's_ Vegetable eel pa asa last resort, and it not only saved me from an operation but made me en- tirely well.” Mrs. Alice Berryhill, of 313 Boyce Street, Chattanooga, Tenn., writes: Dear Mrs, Pinkham: “Three years ago life looked dark to me. I had ulceration and inflammation of the female organs and was in a serious condition. “My health was Ga even! broken down and the doctor told me that if I was not op- erated upon I woufd die within six months. I told him I would have no operation but would try Lydia E. Piukham’s Vegetable Com He tried to influence me against it but I sent for the medicine that same day and to use it faithfulfy. Within five days I felt relief but was not entirely cured until I used it for some time. “Your medicine is certainly fine. I have induced several friends and neighbors to take it and I know more than a dozen who had female troubles and who to-day are as wel} and strong as I am from using your Vege- table Compound.” Lydia E.

The better class of druggists, everywhere, are men of scientific attainments and high integrity, who devote their lives to the welfare of their fellow men in supplying the best of remedies and purest medicinal agents of known value, in accordance with physicians’ prescriptions and Druggists of the better class manufacture many excellent remedies, but always under original or officinal names and they never sell false brands, or imitation medicines. They are the men to deal with when in need.of anything in their line, which usually includes all standard remedies and corresponding adjuncts of a first-class pharmacy and the finest and best of toilet articles and preparations and many useful a sories and remedial appliances. The earning of a fair living, with the satisfaction which arises from a knowledge of the benefits conferred upon their patrons and assistance to the medical profession, is usually their greatest reward for long years of study and many hours of daily toil. They all know that Syrup of Figs is an excellent laxative remedy and that it gives universal satisfaction, and therefore they are selling many millions of bottles annually to the well informed purchasers of the choicest remedies, and they always take pleasure in handing out the genuine article bearing the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of every package. They know that in cases of colds and headaches attended by biliousness and constipation and of weakness or torpidity of the liver and bowels, arising from irregular habits, indigestion, or over-eating, that there is no other remedy so pleasant, prompt and beneficial in its effects as Syrup of Figs, and they are glad to sell it because it gives universal satisfaction. Owing to the excellence of Syrup of Figs, the universal satisfaction which it gives and the immense demand for it, imitations have been made, tried and condemned, but there are individual druggists to be found, here and there, who do not maintain the dignity and principles of the profession and whose greed gets the better of their judgment, and who do not hesitate to recommend and try tosell the imitations in order to make ’—or “Fig Syrup” and of some piratical concern, sometimes have the name—* Syrup of Figs’ larger profit. Such preparations or fictitious fig syrup company, printed on the package, but they never have the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of the package. The imitations should be rejected because they are injurious to the system. In order to sell the imitations they find it necessary to resort to misrepresentation or deception, and whenever a dealer passes off on a customer a preparation under the name of “Syrup of Figs” or “Fig Syrup,” which does not bear the full name of the California Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front of the package, he is attempting to deceive and mislead the patron who has been so unfortunate as to enter his establishment, whether it be large or small, for if the dealer resorts to misrepresentation and and deception in one case he will do so with other medicinal agents, and in the filling of physicians’ prescriptions, and should be avoided by every one who values health and happiness. Knowing that the great majority of druggists are reliable, we supply the immense demand for our excellent remedy entirely through the druggists, of whom it may be purchased every- where, in original packages only, at the regular price of fifty cents per bottle, but as exceptions exist it is necessary to inform the public of the facts, in order that all may decline or return any imitation which may be sold to them. If it does not bear the full name of the Company— California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of every package, do not hesitate to return the article and to demand the return of your money, and in future go to one of the better class of druggists who will sell you what you wish and the best of everything in his lino at reasonable prices.
