A MYSTERY

How the human system ever RECEIVERS from
the bad effects Of the nauseous medicines often
literally poured into it for the suppositive re-
lief of dyspepsia, liver complaints, constipa-
ton, rheumatism and other ailments, is mys-
terry. The mischief. done by bad medicines is
scarcely less than that caused by disease If
they who are weak, bilious, dyspeptic, consti-
pated or rheumatic, would oftener be guided
by the experience of invalids who have thor
oughly tested Hostetter's Stomach Bitters they
would in every instance obtain the speediest
aid derivable from rational medication. This
medicine is a searching and at the same time
thoroughly safe remedy derived from veget-
able sources, and possessing in consequence of
cinal stimulant not to be found in the fiery
local bitters and stimulants often escorted to
by the debilitated, dyspeptic and languid.

PRUSSIAN FORESTS.

The Handsome Revenue Derived From
Them by the Government.
Americans, accustomed to dealing
with large figures, will be struck with
the small extent of the Prussian State
forests, upon which so much care and
attention is bestowed and about which
so much is written and printed. These
cover but 6,597, 900 acres. These Prus-
sian forests, however, although less
profitable than those of France, pro-
duce annually an average of 1914, 900
loads of fifty cubic feet of timber and
small wood, and net to the Government
annually nearly $4,000, 900, or about
S1.35 per acre every year. The
subordinate staff of the Prussian State
forests chiefly employed in their protec-
ton. that is, foresters and forest guards
numbers 1888 persons, in addition to
which there is an administrative staff
of S07 persons, with headquarters at
Berlin, 122 forest inspectors and 677 ex
ecutive officers in charge of forest dis
tricts or ranges. This staff besides the
management of the State forests, has
the general control of over 10000 900
acres of other forests, the property of
various towns and villages, schools,
hospitals and different public associa-
tons. There are in Prussia, besides
these public forests, nearly 1000, 900
acres of private forests, the manage
ment of which is more unrestricted.
There are eight forest schools in Ger
many and much attention is given by
the youth of that country in fitting for

Feeding Whole VS.. Ground Corn.

At the Agricultural Experiment Sta
tion, of Maine, an experiment bearing
upon this question has been made with q
pig, which was kept so confined that all
the excrement could be collected and
weighed, the object Of the experiment be-
ing to ascertain IL proportion Of the food
actually digested when fed in the various
forms Of whole grain, corn meal, and corn
and cob meal. Omitting the details of
the experiment, which are given in the
annual report of the station, recently is
sued, we may summarize the results OBJ.
tanned as follows: Of the total organic
matter in the corn, nearly eight pounds
more 10 hundred were digested from the
corn mea: than from the whole corn, the
difference being greatest in the most val
liable portion Of the grain-the slbumi
mold material, whence it appears that in
feeding q bushel of corn without grinding,
about five pounds more would be wasted
in the excrement than in feeding the same
weight of meal. In feeding the corn-and
cob meal, it appeared that about eleven
per cent. of the organic matter of the cobs
was digested; but it also appeared that
this increase Of digestible matter fell al
most entirely upon the crude fibre of the
cobs, msterial that probably has the least
value of any of the prominent ingredients
of feeding stuffs.-Farm and FSreside.

Tree Planting.

In putting out trees, the pecan is we'll
worthy of consideration, owing to the
many advantages it offers. They grow
wild in the South and West and yield a
nut that is of much value Tor swine. Cul-
tivation makes them much more prolific
and wonderfully improves the quality of
the fruit, and besides it being a very hardy
tree and capable of withstanding most
any storm that ever visits North Carolina,
it is tree of handsome form and beauti-
ful foliage. The pecan tree lives to q
great age and continues long in bearing.
It is we'll adapted to almost any kind OF
soil, doing well even on rocky hills aud
waste land. There is no nut or fruit tree
more valuable and requiring so little at
tention. Every farmer, in our opinion,
should have his nut orchard, and cultivate
especially the pecan for home use or sale.
The nuts always find ready sale at fancy
prices. In planting the trees, the only
object is to obtain good fresh nuts, and Of
good early variety, of large size, from
which TO grow the trees. II it is pre-
ferred to set out the plants, get healthy
trees of good variety one to two years
old.

Apples for Cows.


A moderate quantity of apples. say six
to eight quarts per day, while containing
little substance of nutritive value, will as
sistiu the digestion OF her other food, and
their favoring will improve the taste of
the milk. But an excessive amount of
apples might be an injury from the
amount of seeds they contain. Apple
seeds in considerable quantity operate on
the urinary organs, and this is what has
led some to suppose that the apples dry
cows up. The writer has often fed the
small quantity of apples mentioned to
cows with decided benefit. It is better
that they should be fed with heterogeneous
food, as apples are very deficient in al
bumiuoids.-Prof. Stesoart IN Country

AGRICULT URAL.
Cultivated Grasses.

The Bulletin of the n. @. Agricultural
Department for September contains good
article on "Cultiysted Grasses" In that
article the idea that the climate and soil
of the South is unfavorable 10 the grasses
is strongly combatted.
The Bulletin opposes the cultivation of
such grasses as the Japan clover, Bermuda
grass, and johnson grass, whose chief
merit seems to be that they will grow on
poor land. The grasses that grow on poor
lands are, t contends, usually poor
grasses, and ought to be superseded by
better. -
One objection urged against Bermuda
grass is that where it gets footing it is
difficult or impossible to eradicate it.
The same is true of the johnson grass,
whose roots form q dense mass, which
holds the land against all attempts to
supplant it. "We learn" says the Bull
letin, "that it has led to the abandonment
for agricultural purposes OF some OF the
finest fields in Alabama"
Whatever may be the difficulty of
growing clover in the sandy soils of East
ern North Carolina land we believe that
it is considerably no such difficulty exists
in the middle, piedmont and mountain
sections of the State, Even on poor land
it may be made to do we'll in this section
by giving it little help at the start.
Horses, cattle, hogs and sheep do we'll on
it. No country where clover grows can
ever become poor. The clover plant re-
noyates the land, furnishes food for rails
ing and fattening stock, and thus to a
great extent supplies the place of grain.
The way to agricultural prosperity in
the piedmont country lies in the direction
of stock raising. Our farmers, we are
glad to know, are becoming fully alive to
the Importance Of rearing the best breeds
of all the different animals of the farm.
It takes no more to raise such an animal
than scrub. Therein lies the economy
of rearing improved breeds.-Hickory
Press.

H The best soil for wheat is where
clay predominates. A mixture of sand
and clay is the best for q succession OF
crops, and sand for q bright, stiff straw
but too sandy q soil is too porous for wheat
although good spring wheat is frequently
grown on sandy soils. Muck is not well
adapted for the growth of wheat, but
where the land is rich wheat will succeed
on q variety of soils. There is no better
preparation for wheat crop than clover
turned under. Nitrogen is needed for the
growth of wheat, and if the urine of the
horses, or COW is applied to the growing
crop early in the spring, you may look for
q good yield of grain. st
