Constitutional Catarrh.

No single disease has enailed more suffering or
fastened the breaking up of the constitution than
Catarrh. The sense of SMELL of taste, of sight, of
hearing, the human voice, the mind,--one or more,
and sometimes all, yield to its destructive influence
The poison it distributes throughout the system at
tacks every vital force, and breaks up the most
robust of constitutions Ignored, because but little
understood, by most physicians. impotently assaed
by quacks and charlatans, those suffering from 1t
have little hope to be relieved of it this of the grave
1t is time. then that the popular treatment of this
this terrible disease by remedies within the reach of
all passed into hands at once competent and trust
worthy, The and hitherto untried method
adopted by DR.. Sanford in the preparation of his
RADICAL CURE has won the hearty approval of
thousands. 1t is instantaneous in affording relief in
all head colds, sneezing, snufing and obstructed
breathing, and rapidly removes the most oppressive
symptoms, clearing the head, sweetenng the broath
restoring the of smell, taste and hearing and
neutrazing the constitutional tendency of the dis
ease towards the lungs, liver and kidneys.
SANFoRD's RADICAL CURE consists of one bottle

Farm and Garden Notes.

CARE-TAK1NG costs little, but it
makes all the difference between twelve
cent and forty-cent butter.
SMALL, sound potatoes fed to horses
in connection with other feed will be
found very beneficial and will be thank
fully received by them.
SPLIT the milk, and make calves out
of one part and butter out of the other
This is the growing idea of cow-yard
economy. Calves can thrive without
the cream.
THE man who has not a thorough
knowledge of the characteristics of the
fields he cultivates, labors under great
disadvantages. 1t takes more than one
year to become acquainted with farm.
EDITOR GILBERT says with point and
truth: " For tie amount of capital in
vested our farms are paying better than
does manufacturing in general. A small
investment does not bring large in
come anywhere"
MORE sheep die from neglect in No
vember than during all winter. Sheep
should be literally treated in the fall,
so they may go into winter quarters in
good shape. They are then reasonably
safe and will come through all right.
FARMERS have Just what many men
in other occupations are looking for
ward to-a quiet peaceful home, where
the children are well reared and fitted
to go out and battle successfully with
the world and they do not half appre-
ciate the fact.
ONE can get customers in the cities
by going right to people, and showing
them sample of his butter, and max
ing bargain to deliver it as wanted.
A great deal of butter sold TO consum-
ers by grocers, costs them twice as
much as the grocer pays.
WITH a warm, well lighted and clean
stable, plenty of early cut and we'll
cured grass, with the contents of a
good silo and a well-flled root-cellar,
the comfort, health and profit of the
cows should be no more predetermined
in the winter than in the summer.
Now is the best time of the year for
thoroughly critical examination of all
your stock. Select the best for keep
ing and dispose of the rest. This matter
is of so great importance that we dare
not neglect frequent repetition of the
reminder. The best stock, only, pays
for its keeping.
SECRETARY GARFIELD, of the Mich.
igan Horticultural society, in note to
us says with point "Publishers don't
know everything, nor editors either
There is too much written nowadays
One can read the average agricultural
paper in short meter, if he simply scans
for new things" Very true, cery true
but how much better they are than they
used to be.
FEW people are aware of the value
of fruit as an article of food Many
persons look on fruit as a luxury
whilst some shudder at the idea of it,
and coniure up internal fortunes at the
name. Children, on the contrary, will
eat fruit at any time, and undergo much
discomfort to get it, often eating such
as is unfit and unwholesome, because
no better is to be got. 1t is wicked not
to provide our farm homes with sucl
easily-grown food, so important to thu
health and endowment of the family

The Question Box.

l would like to ask some readers if
they can give me recipe for making
good soft soap with potash, that will
keep the year round. 1 have made it
according to directions of Rabbits con-
centrated potash, but it will not keep,
and if you add more potash it becomes
hard soap. MAGGIE.
REPLY BY EDIToR.-The trouble is
that the Babbitt "potash" is really soda
ash, from which the true soft soap can
not be made; but only net hard soap.
Get some genuine potash of the drug
gist, dissolve it in water, adding a little
fresh quicklime, then strain and use
just the same as common lye. The
strength of the solution can be judged
in the same way as with lye. Perhaps
readers can add something important
to these directions.
