WISE AND orHERwIsE.

The majority of farmers work too
hard and do not think enough.
Boys learn more than adults at the
fair. See that they learn nothing but
what is useful.
The rowen must be watched and cut
when Just right. The same is true of
crops like Hungarian.
1t has been shown that dry fodder
is as digestible as green, and therefore as
valuable for stock.

There is one sure way of increasing
egg production, and that is to breed

-''This world would be much better
off If it had less cOwardly courage and
more courageous cowardice," observes

took farmers will receive 81 ,2OO,OOO for

ings of machinery. Hoods Sarsaparilla

disease.
Make it duty to keep posted on ag-
ricultural progress.
The dog law for the protection of
sheep is not wholly for farmers but for
agriculture, and so for the benefit of the
whole community. The tax upon dogs
shonld be so high as to make the keep
ing of them luxury, except farm dogs
kept to restrain vermin that destroy
lambs, poultry and crops and protect
the farmer against tramps.

1t is the hilly lands that need muck,
and it is among these that the muck is
found i'm greater quantities. There is
hardly farm in a hilly country that
does not contain one or more of these
muck beds. The muck in these beds is
usually readily accessible to the farmer.
1t is bank that he should draw from
regularly. 1t will pay and pay well.

AS a rule, the unsuccessful farmer is
himself responsible for the situation of
which he complains. A farmer, to make
his business pay, must not only be in
| dustrious and economical, but must have
well-studied, well-defned and systemat-
ic plans. And these plans should not be
for the present only, but for series of
years: and he must have ambition and
force of character to carry them through
must be prompt and thorough in all
details of his business,

Brother Cheever says, in the New
ENGLAND Farmer, ~ do not approve of
trying to grow grass continually on the
same land, except on lawns, by the use
of commercial manures. Grass can be
grown at greater profit in farm rotation
with stable manure or commercial fer
tilizer applied to cultivated crops, to be
followed by a few years Of grass. 1t is
possible by this course to get the grass
at clear profit on the previous outlay for
manure and cultivation. A hoed crop
ought to pay for the manure used, then
the grass following it will cost only the
cutting and hauling to the NOW.
NOT ONE IN TIN
OF the people you meet from day to day
has perfectly pure healthy blood. The
hereditary scrofulons faint afilicts the
large majority of people, while many
others acquire diseases from impure air,
improper food and wrong indulgences.
Hence the imperative necessity for re-
liable blood purifier like Hoods Sarsa-
parilla, which eradicates every impurity,
and gives to the blood vitality and
health. 1t cures scrofula, salt rheum,
humors, boils, pimples and all other af-
fections caused by Impurities or poison
GUS germs in the blood. All that is asked
for Hoods Sarsaparilla is that it be given
a fair trial.
