MILLIONS SAVED.

The Sub-Treasury Plan Would Save Mil
lions to the Farmers.
A Kansas paper says: THE sub-ircas-
ury scheme is the most foolish, absurd
and nonsensical proposition ever en-
tered by the people. OF course it will
never materialize, for the more intelli.
gent class see the sweeping breadth of
it 1t tends to Capitalization and con-
sequently to wipe out state lines
That is q great big mistake. We
have Capitalization now in its worst
form. The great ccnters like New
York and Liverpool ccntralize the cot.
ton crop. In other words, the crop is
warehoused there. The grain centers
like Chicago. Cincinnati, St Louis and
other points control the surplus grain,
it being stored there to await con-
sumption. Under the sub-treasury
system we would have many ware.
houses scattered over each state. For
instance, cotton raised in Wake county
would be stored in Raleigh instead Of
New York or Liverpool. Surplus grain
raised in Buncombe county would DC
stored at Asheville instead of going 10
Chicago q elsewhere Millions of dol
lars would thus be saved On freight
and commission The system b ex.
actly the reverse of GENERALIZATION.

Mrs. Sarah M. Black of Seneca,
NO., during the past two years has
been affected with Neuralgia of the
Head, Stomach and Womb, and
writes: my food did not seem to
strengthen me at all and my appe-
lite was very variable. My face
was yellow, my head dull, and 1 had
such pains in my left side. In the
morning when I got up I would
have a flow of mucus in the mouth,
and a bad, bitter taste. Sometimes
my breath became short, and 1 had
such queer, tumbling, FACILITATING
sensations around the heart. Iached
all day under the shoulder blades,
in the left side, and down the back
of my limbs. It seemed to be worse
in the wet, cold weather of Winter
and Spring; and whenever the spells
came on, my feet and hands would
turn cold, and could get no sleep
at all. I tried everywhere, and got
no relief before using August Flower

STOCK ITEMS.

II the stock is turned into the stubble
fields see that it is not kept in too long,
or animals will begin to run down, and
what they lose will have to be made up
again.
Generally the pigs that return the
best profit are the ones that are ready
TO market in the shortest time. This
implies quick growth and an early
maturity.
The man who is awfully particular
TO have his fine mare bred to fine
horse, and then gives the colt poor
showing, is wanting sadly in the char
acteristics of a good horseman.
An agricultural expert, who has tried
both ways, says it is better to have q
COW give 800 pounds of butter for five
years and die on your hands, than to
give 200 pounds for ten years and then
make I, 500 pounds old COW beef.
Wool Is the smallest product in value
derived from the sheep. It has been
repeatedly shown that, by the use of
the improved breeds of sheep. lambs
can be made to pay from S. to SO each.
while the increased value of the land
upon which the sheep have been kept
Is of itself d sum quite large enough to
render sheepfaising quite profitable
All things considered, the best plan
Of fatten!ng hogs is by giving them the
run Of a good clover pasture, and then
feeding literally with good variety Of
fattening food The principal advau-
tage in allowing them to run out is that
better health can be more easily MAIN
tanned, and with good health better
growth and thrift are possible.-Prac'

Horses thrive remarkably well on
sugar and molasses, and these ingredi-
ents have been regularly used since
1873 in Australia and South America
and other parts of the world for getting
horses into condition for sale, and also
for colts while wintering in the park.
Sugar not only improves the condition
of the colts, but prevents any risk on
the stoppage of the bowels. The way
it is used is to dissolve the sugar in
water and pour it on the chaf or cut
hay, taking care that the food is well
mixed.
There is no magic balm coming from
the earth that cures horses lameness
or soreness. When horses get cured, as
they often do, Of any soreness or lame
ness by a run at grass, it is because
they get just the right amount of rest
and the right amount of exercise, and
because the feet are kept cool and the
fever kept out by the damp earth and
wet grass Give the animal the same
rest and light exercise when kept in the
stable, and keep the feet cool and fire.
quently moistened and he will be
benefited Just as much.
