line. Old SaulS Catarrh Remedy, FUzier's

Maturing the Best Land.

There is one way in which a farmer can curtaiI his expenses in times of de- pression. This is by seeding more and cultivating less. IL makes a great diff ference if this is done what policy the frmer pursues in selecting the land on which to expend the manure and labor. Oftentlmes some parts of the farm are run down so that they do not seed readily. The great temptation is to continue cultivating' then manur- ing heavily and trying to get a catch of grass or clover In most cases It will be far better policy to SOW grass seed thickly and early. and get as far catch as this will give. reserving the manure for the fields in better tillage, and thus seeking greater proht out or them. It is only the extra big crops that pay when prices are low. The farmer should restrict his tillable area until he can safely count on maxi mum crop of any thing he undertakes to grow When this IS done the seeded portion of the farm may be heavily manured. little every year, until it is all brought under nnltiva'
 jon. --AmericGn CWttiVator
