Observation-Disclosures.

Persons who are predisposcd to dyspepsia, find
their suerings from this gradually aggravated
by damp weather easterly Winds and sudden changes
from mild to a chilling atmosphere. In the
spring, therefore, the pangs of indigestion are
seriously augmented by the atmospheric variations
peculiar to the season. and it is incumbent upon all
who desire to pass through the ordeal of its cold
mists and insalubrious gales with easy stomachs
and untormented by the indescribable torments
which accompany dyspepsia, to tone and strengthen
the digestive organs with healthful and effective
vegetable invgorant; and at all familiar with
the medical record of the age, question for one
moment that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is the
Tonic best adapted to this purpose.
The credentials of the Great Restorative are I'M
equailed in number and character by those of any
other advertised medicine in the world. If ever there
was preparation to rank National Remedy, this
wonderful specific has fair claim to the title. For
period of twenty years it has literally been tie
Champion Tonic and Alternative on this side of the
Atlantic In popularity it has never been approached
by any of its woud-be competitors, and its annual
sales far in advance of those other medi-
cine of its class. that comparisons would be Idcu-
lous. One or two conclusions is inevitable Either
the American people are deficient in common sense.
and incapable OF rational discrimination, Hos
letters Bitters is the best preventive remedy for
Digestion fever and ague, bilious remittent fever
constipation, rheumatism, nervous complaints, and
all matadies of an epidemic endemic type The
reader VIII Judge for himself which of the two con-
clusions is most consistent with fact aid feasori.

Cattle Killing Frees.

A correspondent of the Country
Gentleman says:
It is a fact that all the careful farm
ers must have noticed, that a tree.
seeming ever so thrifty and of what
ever kind, to which cattle have atcess.
and under which they stent, will very
soon dle-ln toe case of solitary shade
trees IN pastures or by the road side.
This Is common occurrence, and the
question naturally arises, Why is it z
First, rubbing a tree by the necks OF
cattle is highly injurious, and If per
sisted it will commonly destroy them
sooner or later but if the body of the
trees be cased SO that their necks can
not touch it, death will ensue Just as
certainly if they are allowed TO tramp
Re around it. But why should tramplng
the earth destroy the trees The rea-
sonis one of wide and important APP
plication to the laws of yeget able
growth. The roots of plants need the
air just as much as the leaves and
branches. Their case is similar TO that
OF fishes, which, although they must
have water, must have air also,
viz, just about as much
permeates the water. If it be
all shut off, so that none which is fresh
can get to them, they will exhaust the
supply on hand and then die for the
want of more. So the roots of trees
and vegetables want air. When the
earth is in a normal or natural condi-
tion, 1t is full of channels by which all
gets TO them. But ii cattle are allowed
to tramp down the earth, and the sun
aids the work by baking it at the same
time, a crust like brick is formed,
that shuts on the moisture, and the
tree soon dwindles and dies. So tree
cannot live If Its roots are covered with

Feeding Fowls.
From Hearth and Home.

Don't keep food always by your poul-
try, because if laying fowls they're
made too fat, and if fattening ones, not
fat enough. To fatten poultry, feed
three times In "A hours all they will eat,
and remove all they leave, and they
will eat more than when cloyed and
diigusted by the constant presence Of
food. To keep layers in proper condi-
ton feed twice or three daily a regu-
lar ration, but not so much as they will
eat. Some say feed as long as they
Will run for what you will throw to
them and eat greedily, but that is not
right; fer they get too fat, unless they
are laying freely. They viii show
eagerness about as long as they can
swallow, and scramble for what you
give them until in their rivalry they
stuff and cram themselves week after
week, and become a mass of fat, and
yet they act at feeding time as if they
were Lalf starved. Feed regular lay
lng stock moderately and be governed by
their state of flesh rather than by their
greed Take few fowls from the perch
at night occasionally to test their
weight, and little practice will enable
YOU to quickly decide on the condition
of the flock. Increase the ration as the
yield of eggs increases, and so long as
the laying keeps pace with The diet you
may give them rich and stimulating
food IN any quantity. Feed the select
breeding stock more sparingly than the
rest of the layers, SO as to give only a
moderate yield Of eggs for Matching
purposes, for if you promote great
prolifioness in the parents the result
will be weakness in the progeny
Chickens during the period of their
rapid growth should be fed very often,
with variety and all they will eat. =
While they are growing, there is no
danger of overlooking If they are fed
frequently and allowed perfect freedom,
so that they may take the exercise that
IS indispensable TO then thrift.
