OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
%1AW

A happy surprise it was to Mr.. A. r.
Norton, OF Bristol, Conn, when ATHIoPHoRos
put him on his feet and sent him cheerfully
about his business. Let him tell his own story:
"About three weeks ago was taken
with severe crick in the back For four days
/ was unable TO turn in bed without help, and
when lifted up could not stand on my feet twas
induced to try ATHLoPHoRos, after all the usual
remedies failed. In % minutes after taking the
first dose could bear my weight upon my feet.
In two days was able 10 get about and attend
to business, In two other cases which have
come to my knowledge its use has been attended
with the same results"
A poor man in Philadelphia had to bor-
row dollar 20 buy bottle OF ATHLoPHoRos.
on account OF his poverty his name shall remain
o secret He had suffered terribly from Rheu-
uatlsm. He gratefully writes:
81 took my first dose Tuesday afternoon
and on Wednesday, after but seven Doses l had
not sharp or severe ache left. Then reduced
the dose Onehalf and took the remainder Of the
bottle. was able to be steady at work till Sat
urday, when took severe cold and was I'M
able to use my left hand. purchased another
bottle and by bedtime found relief. Tho
medicine Is all you claim for it."
Investigate ATHLoPHoRos you please!
Find all the fault you choose with it and
yet the fact remains, that it is doing what
30 other medicine ever could do ior Rheu-
Matism and Neuralgia.
fyou cannot get ArHLopHoRos Of your drug
gist, we will send 1t express paid, on receipt OF
regular prtce-one dollar per bottle. Weprefer
that you buy 1t from your druggist, but II he
hasn't 1t, do not be persuaded to try something
else but order at once from US as directed

Onions.

No one can 90 wrong with the Yellow
Danyers onion. II is very trustworthy. OF
course where the market demands a red on
ion the Danvers will not do. The rel
Weathe .sfeld is an cid favorite. For home
purposes the Danvers is better than ANYTHING
we know. In fav or it is nearer the Portu-
gal Farmers families do not, as rule,
eat as many onions as are good for them.
In cases of sickness onion soup will ''stay"
where the person might be nauseated by
another soup. One or two baked or boiled
onions at night are a fair cure for sleepless-
ness. They will cure the scurvy. There is
much nutriment in an onion. Used with
plenty of carrots it helps out a meat stew.
Chopped with potatoes it gives the "Lyon-
naise potatoes Mr. Ferry recommends that
it be cooked long time. There should be
a slight mixture of clay in the soil. While
onion land can be too heavy, yet the finest
crop of onions we ever saw was raised on
mucky land.

The Family Cow in Midsummer.

On farms where the dairy is an important
part Of the husbandry, provision is made by
sowing soiling crops, to supplement the
diminished pasturase in midsummer. Those
who keep only the 'family cow or at most
two or three cows, find the flow of milk to
decrease, and often without any green crop
provided for keeping it up. The terri
tory of those who keep but single COW. is
often restricted 10 a small pasture and a
vegetable garden. The garden should be
made to supplement the pasture, and this
NAV be done 10 some extent by securing for
the COW much from the garden that usually
goes to waste. Every one who has a garden.
tries TO have an abundance of green peas.
After the vines have Welded their last
profitable picking. instead Of allowing them
to remain upon the ground until that is
wanted for another crop, feed the vines to
the COW while they are still green and sue
culent So with sseet corn. When the
las, ear is pucked from stalk or hill, do
not wait until tie whole patch or row can be
cleared. but pull up the stalks that have
been deprived Of ears,a few at time, and
feed them while in their hes, condition. The
outer leaves Of early cabbages. and the
leaves Of beeis, carrots. and turnips, care
fully saved, will make an important item in
the succulent food for the COW. If there is a
space in the garden, from which an early
crop has been removed, and il is not needed
for late garden crop, it should be growing
sowed thickly in rows for fodder corn and
afford welcome feed. Ii is well TO have an
abundance of cabbage plants Of large. late
variety, and set them out wherever there is
room.a and far beyond the needs Of the family.
An occasional cabbage next winter will be
treat to the COW. Experiments made a
dozen wears ago With some twenty varieties

Why Wet Lands Should Be Drained

When land ], saturated With water, aquatic
plants Of little Or no ,aiue are those which

In agriculture, the plants perform the
par Of the miaer in separai!n; the valuable
material from the mass Of the soil, which
material they afterwards. by the aid Of the
sun. and the atmosphere. manufacture into
food for man and animals. The inherent
properties OF the So. are thus made avail
able, and that which was before Of little or
no value becomes most valuable; core and
meat are produced and are sold in the mar
ket. and the landlord receives gold a. rent
in exchange for portion 0: the inherent
properties Of his soil.
After land i, drained. lime is sometime,
applied. and on q certain c.a,. of soil, it,
beneficial effects are very great. One " the
most important AM Interesting scientific
facts in relation 10 agriculture is connected
with nitric acid The formation Of nitric
acid from the stock Of organic nitrogen ex-
isiing in the soil, the inert condition Of such
organic nitrogen. and the great influence Of
The liberated nitric acid in promoting the
growth Of agricultural crops, may be con-
sldercd to have got beyond the region
Of probability into that Of established
facts.
When We add that the conversion Of Or
ganic nitrogen is due 10 the operation Of a
living organism. which cannot perform its
work without there is sufficient lime in the
soil TO combine with he nitric acid a quick
y as it is formed. we get a clear insight
as to why tits that lime is far more bene-
fetal upon soils where the amount of yege-
table matter is large. and the amount Of
lime small, than it is upon soils where
the amount Of vegetable matter is small.
As in draining, so with lining, the inher-
ent properties Of the soil are made avail
able. - Rural Nac lorke

To RESTORE RUBBER Rings FOR CANS
The rubber rings used to assist in keep.

SO dry and brittle as to be almost useless
They can be restored TO normal condition
usually, by letting them lie in water in

in this proportion one part ammonia and
two parts water. Sometimes they do no,
need to lie in this more than five minutes

A mixer should learn to milk quickly
Slow milking will spoil any COW and there is
little doubt that many cows are made I'M
profitable by bad milking. As soon as the
flow of milk begins it should be drawn as
quickly as possible. Stripping with finger
and thumb is bad practice, and should be
unlearned at once, and the whole hand used
to milk with. BY persevering one will soon
be able to milk very short teats if the hand
is moderately small. The best mixers have
small hands strength of wrist will come in

Our esteemed contemporary, the Register,

clariug 10 be unreasonable" the Argument
Of "Young Foay" on the two-edged reas.
sessment order-charmed, because "Youug
Fegy" holds Unconstitutional the law
which that order assumed to repeal. The
point Of "Young Fogy's" article is that
theexecutive department has no right to in
terptet, nuil;ly Or obsssuet Law, and the
writer used nearly q column Of the Register
to show that this was what the executive de.
parlmeut had done in the matter Of the
tag exemption law; that was tho gssvamen
Of bis chsrge; that IS wha! the peopls
complain Of; it is the argument in supper,
OF this charge which the 1sTELLlaEScEn
believes to be unanswerable.
It may DO that tho law is unconstitu.
tional. Tha. is not the burden Of "Youug
FoSy's" article; that point was not touched
on in the ISTELLloEScER's article and tina,
is not tho point in controversy. "Young
Fogy," who believes the law to be uncon,
atitusional, declares that ",hs validity O.
that la,u has never been called in question
before any judicial tribunal" It follows
that the executive act was m act Of usur-
patton. And further "Yourg Fogy" says
u do not deny that the Governor is homes
in his opinion that section 43 Of chapter Il
OF tho sets Of 1881 is unconstitutional
but 1t has not been declared &c
because tina. act has not beer
before the courts. The Legislature has ex.
pressed its decision in favor Of its consti.
tuiionality. The Governor virtually did &C
when he approved it. It stands on tho
statute BOOKS unrepealed and uncontroyer.
ted" This has been and il the position o.
tho ISrELLlaEScEn, maintained, doubtless
with much less ability
We think it better that the question o.
the constitutionality OF law shall be de-
ciaed by competent authority before oul
executive officer shall decide that the Law
is not n law. Now what does the Regisle,
think? BY this time it should have reach
conclusion,
