Eleven Of the eighteen presidents Of
the United States elected BY the
people were sons Of farmers.
Empty udders and lean ribs will
be the result Of cattle exposed to
cold rains.
Attend to little repairs. Neglect
will make the labor greater when it
can no longer be postponed.

Corn stored ina dry crib, means
more valuable and healthfnl food for
the stock.
Take as much care Of each animal,
as though it we're the most perfect
inthe herd.
Have an ideals perfect animal,
in mind, and then breed toward per-
fecting your whole herd.
Like produces like, but in many
cases the likeness more nearly re-
sembles the undesirable features Of
the sire or dam.
There Is seldom danger Of caring
too well for stock in winter, if the
energy is guided by an understand
ing ofone's business.
It's the verdict everywhere that
creameries stimulate farmers to keep
more and better cows, Mi. Hale says
in the Connecticut Courant.
There r many instances where
thirty-ive bushels of grain might
just as well be grown on one acre as
twenty, if the right variety had been
sown.

Wire netting fences have become
very popular in the west during the
past few years, and have given gem
eral satisfaction,
Animals exposed to the cold will
eat all the time. This is because
there is SO much fuel required to keep
up animal life. Cold is death.
Clover hay is best for all growing
animals and cows giving milk. This
is because it is well balanced, and
has a large amount of muscle in it.
Farmers and gardeners feet are
apt to get sore from constant walk
ing over rough ground. By having
several pairs of shoes, and changing
from one pair to another alternately
every third or fourth day, much foot
soreness can be prevented.
s. K. Wight of Maine gives the
Lewiston Journal some facts as to
his sheep raising. The income from
thirty-four sheep was: Lambs sold
$1,000 lambs unsold 500. "a, wool
$$34, showing a profit of $S.98 per
head.
Anew York dairy-man says he can
get more milk from cows fed on beets,
two bushels per diem to cows, than
from ensilage, The milk yield ran up
to twenty quarts. He asserts that
he can produce beets at a cost offour
cents a bushel, 1000 bushels to the
acre.
The best thing to do with a hen
that eats eggs is to eat the hen.
Fatten her first, as a matter of
course. Egg-eating is a habit that
can be cured only by killing the hen.
1t is contagious. The egg.eating hen

hens, seeing her work, go and do
likewise.
1t is announced that the apple
crop in the United Kingdom will be a
very small one this season. In
France the crop is also light, and in
Germany very poor indeed. Belgium
has q good crop, but the apples from
there are mostly commons. American
apples should find q ready market
this season abroad and shipments
are increasing.

late was a lemon PIE, after this formu' a,
Two lemons, two eggs. two cups OF su-
gar. two ~spoonfuls Of c~ornstarch, two
GUYS Of cold water, q little butter.
Crate the yellow rind only on both lem
nnS, and squeeze the juice into a sauce
a n add the water and sugar, and
place over the fire. Blend the cornstarch
with the yolks of the eggs and beat
we'll and stir into the water when boil
.ng. II should be Of the consistency OF
islly. When cold, pour into a pie plate
covered with a rich paste; bake twenty
minutes in a brisk oven. Then meran-
cue the top with the beaten whites,
and brown ~delicately IN the oven. This
makes one large pie, 1t need hardly
to be added that this, as well as cold
desserts, are far more acceptable In the
warm season, if brought from the. re-
frigerator just before serving.
Another lemon dessert is made as fol-
lows: To the juice of four lemons and
the yellow rind, only add one-half pint
of water and one-half pound of sugar,
cover closely for one hour, then strain
through a cloth, add one ounce OF ISM
glass and put in a saucepan with six
~wpll.beateu eggs, set over the fire and
Keep stirring one way till as thick as

Tipped in cold water. Serve ice cold.

full blessing to nervous people. LUCIE WERNER"
This wonderful remedy, whose praise is
upon e~veryhody's lips, must be the most
marvellous in its curative powers of any
remedy ever discovered. We hear every
day of remarkable cures of nervousness,
nervous weakness. exhaustion, paraly sis or
other nervous diseases effected by this
great nerve tonic and restorative. Here a
person rescued from the grave, as was Mrs.
Annie Donovan, Of Attawaugan, Conn;
there a case saved from that terrible dis
ease, insanity, as was Mr.. w. Q. Miles, of
40 Blue Hill avenue, Boston, Mass. again,
cures of paralysis of years standing, like
that of Mr.. Alexander Horn, of the Marine
Asylum, Philadelphia, Pa, who had not
been able to walk before for years; or re-
storation from the severest neuralgia and
rheumatism, like the case of Mr.. James
Bown, of % Market street, New York City.
Cures of sleeplessness, with nervous and
physical exhaustion, are very frequent, the
wonderful cure of Mrs. W. f. Able, of 10
Afleck street, Hartford, Conn, being only
one among thousands. Altogether, the re-
markable powers of DR.. Greene's Nervura
Nerve Tonic in curing all forms of nervous
diseases like the above, n restoring to
health sufferers from nervousness, nervous
weakness, nervous debility, dependency,
depression of mind, headache, trembling,
numbness, dyspepsia, indigestion, consti-
patton, the opium or choral habit, &C.,
have demonstrated it to be O remedy OF
wonderful powers, and at times of almost
miraculous effects in curing disease. 1t is
not to be wondered at, therefore, that drug
stores every where are overwhelmed with
orders for his remarkable remedy, and it
is almost impossible TO supply the demands
from the hundreds OF thousands Of sufferers
from nervous diseases. All druggists keep
the remedy, at 81 per bottle, and its low
price places it within the reach of ALI If
your druggist does not have 1t, he Will get

women alone take pleasure in being pos

ssNasal Voices, Cstarrh aud False
Teeth.v

A prominent English woman says
| the American women all have high,
shrlll, nasal voices and false teeth.
Americans don't like the constant
twitting they get about this nasal
twang, and yet il Is a fact caused by
our dry stimulating atmosphere, and
the universal presence of catarrhal dr.
f1culties.
But WHY should so many of our
women have false teethY - t1.Fu.-.
That is more of a poser to the Eng
lisA. 1t Is quite impossible to account
for 1t except on the theory Of deranged
stomach action caused by imprudehce
in eating and by want OF regular exer-
else. f'H. lat
