physicians do not by their professional
methods build mp the female constitution,
and they seldom cure the diseases to which
it is always liable in our variable climate
and under our imperfect civilization. Spe-
cial remedies are often required to restore
organic harmony and to strengthen the
enfeebled powers of womanhood, and for
most of these we are indebted to persons
outside of the medical profession. Among
the very best OF these remedies / assign a
prominent place to Mrs. Pinkham's Vegeta-

Grain on Pastnro.

About the best reliance that many, far
iners have at baud for supplementing short
pasture Is green 'clnver. Green cloyer is 9
most admirable aid in keeping up summer
growth, being much richer food than rye,
Rye is usually cut but unce, and that upon
heading out. The German mode Of using
rye is far better. They cut it through the
whole season, and, Liebig says, sometimes
carry it over to the second year. 1t is cut
when eight TO twelve inches high, before
the rudimentary head is formed, and it
will then spring up again at onco, and pro-
duce a cutting every three weeks. In this
way they get large amount of fodder from
il. In this country it IS often till the sta k
becomes tough, and is not we'll relished by
cattle.
But il the soiling crop is to be prepared
before hand, SO as 10 carry out, as every
farmer should, partial system Of solling,
then perhaps the best single reliance ls
orchard grass and medium clover. These
are ready to cut together, and will at once
grow a second crop, aud often third crop.
1t is best cut when the clover heads out
and before blossoming. We have seen crops
Of these, before the clover reached the blos-
som, that would weigh ou I eight tons to the
acre, and, if the season Is favorable "A other
crop can be eus in six weeks This combi-
nation will produce a crop ol at least twenty
tons to the acre in a season, and, # not
wanted for soiling, it will make most ex-
csilent hay.
Another good combination of grasses 10
timothy and large clover. These are ready
to cut together, aud should be cut, for soil
ing, when the clover and timothy begin to
mead. Then a second crnp may be cut.
But great care should be taken not to cut
too closely, as close cutting is often destruo =.

Dry EnWi-HnnAaa.

The Poultry World answering an inquir,
cr SAYS:
"Yes. You ought to have the interior OF
your fowl house dry always. If you aye
no natural knoll to build it upon, you
should raise little mound of earth loot
nr two hlgh. So that the rain water will
drain away from the building in every
direction. Tha drier the earth and floor is
inside your building tho better. Then put
your dust boxes near The window 50 AS to
receive the direct rays of the sun;and il the
fowls make the dust fy all over the apart
ment, 60 that it will lodge on the nest and
perches, and cling To the walls and parti-
'ions, all the better. Dust is nuxious to
vermin. We do not consider that it is OF
any benefit To the fowls IN compel hem TO
breathe dusty atmosphere all day; but
still we think they will be able to get along
without an excessive bad effects; and the
good that they receive from being free from
rermin will more than compensate for any
slight injury they may receive. Dust from

for eight government buildings, in eight
leading cities, aggregated 81, 900, 900. For
the site on Chestnut street, Philadelphia,
the sum of 81, ,491, POI was paid, Boston
nearly matched this, with 81, 1923, ,096 for
her site, and Chicago was not far behind,
with 81, ,259, 1886 The price per square
foot shows even more remarkable figures
St. Louis was satisfied with site costing
$5.98 foot; Chicago with Ons of

the sum OF $l75S per square foot was
paid, and for Boston the top price OF
