Can COusu m ptlon be Cured

We have 80 often seen fatal results follow Inc declaration that it can be cured, that we have unconsciously settled down In the belief that this disease must necessarily prove fatal.
 It is true that occasionally community has witnessed an isolated case of what may ap- propriately be termed spontaneous recovery, but to what combination of favorable circum- stances this result was duo none have hitherto been found able to determine.
 We have now the gratifying fact to announce that the process by which nature effects this wonderful change is no longer mystery to tho medical profession, and that tho changes brought about in the system under favorable circumstances by intrinsic causes may be made as certainty and more expeditiously by the use of the proper remedy. In other words nature Is initiated and assisted.
 Tuberculous matter is nothing moro or les. than nourishment imperfectly organized. Now, If we can procure the organization of this food material so that through the process of elective affinity it may take its place in the system, we can cure the disease. This is just what Piso's Cure for Consumption does. It arrests at once the progress of the disease by preventing the further supply of tuherculous matter, for while the system is under its in nuence all nourishment is organized and as- simulated. It thus controls. cough. expectora- tlon, night-sweats hectic fever, and all other characteristic symptoms of Consumption.
 Many physicians are now using this medi- recommendations and makes Consumption one or the diseases they can readily cure. The forming stage of disease is always the most suspicious for treatment. This fact should induce persons to resort to the use of Pisos Cure when tho cough is first noticed, whether it ha.
 3 consumptive diathests for its cause or not for this remedy cures all kinds of coughs with uncqualled facility and promptness. In cough. from simple cold, two or three doses of the medicine have been found sufficient to remove the trouble. So in all diseases of the throat
 and lungs, with symptoms stimulating those
 of Consumption, Piso's Cure is the only infal Gble remedy.
 The following letter recommending Piso's Cure for Consumption, is fair sample of the
 certificates received daily by the proprietor o this medicines:

John Kuhn, of Lafayette, Ind., had a very narrow escape from death. This is his own story: "One year ago was in tho last stages of Consumption. Our best physicians gave my case up. finally got so low that our doc- tor said I could not live twenty-fo hours. My friend then purchased 8 bottle of DR.

the ground is firm enough not to meach. They know when they want to get out, and will eat the rank early grasses we'll. They will crop it evenly, and will keep it so all summer Some men never take their cattle off in the fall, and there is nothing worse for a pasture than this eternal grubbing of roots in the fall and in mild winter weather.

Dairy and Stock Topics,

~--~-
 The best butter is made on the old pasture.
 Rye bread is a common feed for horses in Belgium and Germany.
 Sprinkle salt upon the back of lamb to induce sheep to own it.
 The butter supply can be increased by frequent stirring of the cream.
 The COWS should be milked as "regu- lar as clock work" as to the hour, and in precisely the same order, each day.
 Keep young pigs dry and warm. Clean pens and dry beds are necessary; damp ness causes manage, which stunts the pig.
 A fagstone floor is the best for the dairy; wood, cement or brick absorb drippiugs, and the floor soon becomes foul and odorous. A Maine man says the way to start an obstinate horse is to take him out of the shafts and lead him around until he is giddy.
 The last month of an animals life has great influence upon his flesh, because the feeding during that period largely determines the flavor and quality. Stock needs salt, and it is a matter that should be looked after. Many cases of collie in horses and hoven lin cattle are caused by deficiency of supply oi | salt.
 The small mess of milk furnished by one COW may be far richer than the larger quantity obtaine ed from another COW. And it is the butter yield that is the best test of cows value. Horses will go eight and probably ter hours without food if properly fed al evening and morning. They should have water more frequently, but never when hot.
 The root crops for swine should con- sist of variety; the farmer should grow not only beets and turnips for them, but parsnips and carrots also. The cheapes pork is that made by securing rapid growth on roots and grass.
 A mixture of skinned milk, buck wheat bran, and cobmeal with good corr fodder should be very good feed for or dinary occasion, but in fattening an ani nal, an evenly balanced food is no wanted, but one rich in carbohydrates and cornmeal bran and corn fodde would be the best

POPULAR SCIENCE.

A German, investigator, Semmola, has succeeded in producing musical tone from metal plate by electrifying it in termittently from an induction machine, the wires being attached to opposite sides of the plate and the path of the current interrupted so that sparks strike across.
 Explorations made last summer prove that the ancient mound building inhab- itants of America extended their works northward beyond the Red River of the North. Along this river and Lake Win nipeg were found mounds identical in structure with the famous ones of the Ohio and Mississippi valleys.
 As an example of the strength of enc kind of fibre, recent work on the sub ject states that the best flores of New Zealand flax are equal in strength to a piece of the best wrought iron of the same diameter.

The Care of Pastures.

AASSoANSoSS~s
 we have a.iy manure to apply, it is used
 on the arrable land and not on our pastures. Then in fencing our farms we fence off the poorer parts and then make
 an average of fencing for the whole farm.
 I don't exactly like the principle of soil
 ing, preferring to send my COWS to pas ture In suggesting points for the i'm
 provement of pastures, I would say,
 first: If there are any mudholes in the pasture would say tile-drain them.
 They will then be the most productive part of the farm. Another improvement is to break up the droppings of the cattle about the 2Oth of October. Break them up with a stable hook and then go over the ground with harrow. Also top dress the pasture late in October with horse manure. There should be hurdle fence to surround that part of the land that is newly broken up for pasture. would SOW two hundred or three hun dred pounds of ground bone on any piece of land that l was going to seed down to pasture. In taking from the soil pound of milk the COW takes piece of phosphate of lime as large as good sized pea, and in sixty pounds of milk she will take sixty times | that amount. Now we must find some way of putting this back, and ground bone is best for this purpose. l would SOW for seed mixture of fourteen pounds of orchard grass, ten pounds Kentucky bluegrass, twelve pounds meadow fescue. and six pounds each of meadow foxtail and of redtop. This may seem good deal. A half crop of grass is worth more than little grass seed. These grasses are all deep rooted and least affected by drought, and will 1 give a succession of food. I'm not in favor of clover in the pasture, as it has too much water in it. also regard tim othy as the poorest pasture grass on ac- count of its bulbous root, which is easily pulled up by cattle grazing close. When you SOW these grasses keep the cattle of the ground the first season, because some of the grasses are weak when young. The tread of cattle is always an injury tc growing grass, but it is unavoidable. l If you take the cattle off by Oct. 20 and break the droppings as have described you will keep the grass in good condi- J ton. would turn cows on to th1 psstMs sast1 h ths spsis4, ~ 1ssa '

Her eyes still have their maiden blue,
And on her cheeks, as fair as thine,
Methinks q girlish blush would glow
If you recalled the valentine
She got, ah! many years ago.
A valorous youth loved gran'ma then,s
And wooed her in that auld lang syr,e:
And first he told his secret when
he sent the maid that valentine.
No perfumed page nor sheet of gold
Was that first hint of love he sent,
But with the secret gran'pa told

Go, ask your gran'ma, If you will,
H-though her head be bowed and gray
N-shough her feeble pulse be chilli
True love abideth not for aye;
BY that quaint portrait on the wall,
That smiles upon her from above,
Methfnks your gran ma can recall
The sweet divinity Of love.

No sheet embossed with cunning art
But here's the solemn pledge of old:

HOOF-OiNTMENT,
A Valuable Composition for the Cure of
Hoof Troubles.

A Valuable Composition for the Cure OK
Hoof Troubles.
There are many prescriptions given
for hoof ointments, some of which are
good and some worse than useless. The
first thing to be considered in manage
ment of the feet is cleanliness. Each
night the hoofs should be wiped clean,
and the mud and dirt all picked out of
the soles. Too much grease or fatty
substances of any kind are not conducive
to the health of the horn, and their over
application should be avoided. Glycer-
inc, applied once or twice per week, is
very good, and is also less likely to
gather dirt than some other ointments.
Equal parts of tallow, wax and honey
make a good ointment, and this can be
made black by adding little lampblack.
The lampblack does not add any to the
quality of the ointment, but with this
it will give the hoofs nicer appearance.
Always keep the hoofs clean, and do not
put on layers of ointment one after the
other, thinking in this way to give the
hoofs protective covering; for, instead,
you may destroy the integrity of the
horn. Another mistake is oftentimes
made by the shoer in rasping the foot
smooth to give it nice appearance. 1t
should not be touched by the rasp above
the clinches of the nails.-N 2. World.
