Good Fences Make Good stock.

Good fences, says Editor W. II. Yeo-
mans of the venerable Germantown
pa Telegraph, are necessity, not
only for the protection of crops, but to
avoid the effect upon animals, AS the
Farmers Home Weekly puts it: "llave
low fences if you want to teach the
stock to jump; weak fences If yeu want
to make them breachy." 1t is very no.
ticeablc how quickly an animal that
has once found a weak place in fence,
and, by rubbing or otherwise, broken
it down so as to render the task of
getting out easy, will. again seek that
spot and try by some means to
effect a breach; few successful at
tempts in that line will greatly en-
bolden to more eXertion, and unless
fences are strong and resist all efforts,
an animal will soon become uncon-
trollable in that direction The same
rule applies to jumping; if escape rom
one ipclosure is effected by small
jump, a greater one will be made next
time, and soon there can hardly be any
restraint These are important rea-
sons why every farmer should have Sc
cure fences, and should never tempt an
unruly animal to lead others into the
bad practice of being unruly or breachy,
which is one of the most serious of farm
annoyanceS.

PASTURAGE.
One of the Problems Demanding the At
tention of Farmers.

One of the Problems Demanding the At
tention of Farmers.
Many problems are now pressin g
themselves upon the attention of the
farmers for solution.
Among these we desire to call atten-
tion to one which we think lies at the
very foundation of all successes. Tenn
porary prosperity may be achieved
without attention to pasturage. But
nothing like permanent prosperity can
be had if this is neglected Horses and
mules cost about what they are worth
to keep each year if fed on corn and
fodder. Twelve months of good feed
ing will cost about one hundred dollars
per head. Hence it is easy to see where
n great part of the expense is. The
acreage of southern land produces
about ten bushels of corn per acre.
This will be ten acres to feed each horse
on. Then the farmer must get his share
to live on by cultivating enough to pay
for the work and the ground, and feed
his family outside of this ten acres for
the horse.
The COW eats less expensive food, but
if she has to be fed by hand, will soon
eat as much as she is worth.
A few minutes reflection on this line
will show that we must find cheaper
way to feed. In all prosperous farming
countries stock keeping and cattle rails
ing are considered essential to keeping
up the condition of the soil. But this can
not be done without cheap food. 1t costs
much more to feed an animal than to let
the animal feed itself. Hay is very
much cheaper than corn and fodder
and much healthier. One acre of clover
or Bermuda or sorghum, or two acres
of most of the cultivated grasses, will
yield enough hay to feed an animal n
year. There Is great difference be-
tween one acre apd ten. If we can re-
duce the cost of maintaining an ami
NAL to one-tenth we have taken long
step toward increasing the profits of
the farm.
If we can keep ten animals instead of
one, we have a far better chance to
make fertilizers for the farm and money
for ourselves.
If we will give as much time and
labor and manure to one acre of any of
the best grasses as we give to ten acres
of corn we can produce upon that acre
from four to six tons of hay per year,
which is always worth in our markets
about twenty dollars per ton. Again,

HERE AND THERE.

Chickens and young ducks and
turkeys need looking out for when
showers come up. A thorough wetting
from rain will cause heavy loss.
The farmer should realize that
farming has not yctreached perfection;
that improvements are possible in a
Thousand things; and his constant study
and careful observation should be to
discover the better plan.-American
Homestead.
DON'T allow your horse to stand in
manure or wet places. This is what
causes thrush, and amonia arising in
such places affects the eyes, etc, and,
coming in contact with the carriages
and harness, destroys varnish and
weakens leather National Stockman.
Perhaps your flock of poultry needs
new, fresh blood for its invigoration.
If sc the sooner the matter is attend to
the better. A good male bird has con-
siderable value, and, therefore, it is
folly to expect to obtain such, save by
the payment of a good price. A real
good fowl is cheaper at five dollars than
a poor one is at seventy-five cents or
one dollar.-Farmers Home Journal.
Don't drive your horse with an
overdrawn check, especially with his
head drawn way back. They were made
only for speeding, and very few horses
need them then. The side check is the
only one affording him ease and com
fort Draw your own head back and
fasten it to your heels and see how you
like it.-Farmers' Home Journal
Some one who has figured out the
problem says that to trace, or rather
tabulate the pedigree of a horse for
twenty generations would require
piece of paper two feet deep and over
four miles long, and that the number of
names in the twentieth generation
would be 2,072,576. Nine men out of
ten would at first thought estimate
about 900 names.
There is nothing like keeping fowls
busy. Idle hens, as truly as idle boys,
are sure to get into mischief, which,
in the case of the hens, consists very
often in the acquisition of that very an
noying and troublesome habit, egg
eating" Keep the hens scratching
most of the time, thereby giving them
something to do and promoting their
general health and pioli6cness.-Farm-
ers' Home Journal.

THE LAXATIVE GUM DROP.

The Laxative Gum Drop is a new
form of laxative that has just been
placed upon the market. In form and
taste it resembles the gum drop of the
confectionerS, but it has no medicinal
taste. 1t is however an effective but
pleasant laxative without gripping or
discomfort. These drops can be carried
in the pocket or the valise without
danger or injury. They can be given
to children without their suspecting
that they contain medicine, and they
will never find this out from the
taste, although they will from the
effect. In short they contain the ele-
ments of a perfect laxative without
any of the unpleasant accompaniments
that usually surround this class of
remedies. There is no spoon, no
bottle, no liquid, no unpleasant re-
minderS that there is such thing as
medicine. They can be taken at any
time. Ask your druggist for the Laxa-
tive Gum Drop, and if he will rot
order them for you write TO us. Small
boxes 10 cents, large ones Is cents.

There's q aoide difference,

There's a aOide difference
between the help that's talked of
and the help that's guaranteed.
Which do you want, when you're
buying medicine?
If you're satisfied with words, you
get them with every blood-purifer
but one. That one is DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. With
that, you get guarantee. If it
doesn't help you, you have your
money back. On this plan, a medi-
zine that promises help is pretty
sure to give it.
But it's because the medicine Is
different, that it's sold differently.
It's not like the sarsaparillas, which
are said to be good for the blood
in March, April, and May. AS all
seasons and in all cases, it cures
permanently, as nothing else can,
all the diseases arising from tor
pid liver or from impure blood.
It's the best blood purifier, and
it's the cheapest, no matter how
many doses are offered for dollar.
With this, you pay only for the
good you get.
Can you ask more?

we can greatly reduce the expense Of
stock feeding by so arranging as TO let
the animals gather their own food in
large measure. Permanent pastures are
cheaper than cutting and curing and
housing even hay. Southern farmers
should begin TO study this question in
earnest There are many grasses that
grow well in our climate. Bermuda is
especially adapted to our climate
for summer pasturage. With occa-
sional blowing and narrowing, say
every third or fourth year, and some
fertilizing, it yields heavy crops of hay
of the very best quality. 1t win fur
nish good grazing about nine months
in the year Glover, yetch, Johnson
grass and Texas blue grass will furnish
good pastures for late and early graz
ing. Texas blue grass seems to grow
especially well in winter.
Select some acres of suitable land,
pillow deeply and thoroughly and har,
row repeatedly, remove all rocks and
stumps, fence permanently, and SOW
down in different kinds of grass, and
give them time to get well rooted, and
you will never regret the labor or time
thus bestowed.
We can never raise stock to profit UNI
til we get plenty of pasturage ready.
But when we get plenty of good pasture
ready we can raise stock as cheaply and
protitably as any part of the country.
Another very important reason why
we should take vigorous hold of the
pasture question is, that it will go
long ways towards settling the labor
question. Good laborers, either renters
or day hands, will generally want to
keep Il COW or two. If you have good
pastures prepared you can get the pick,
besides it will greatly help in settling
down the tenantry. Very few good men
will care to move If they have good
pasture.
At least ten acres out of every forty
should be in grass of some kind. All
that is not needed for pastures can be
cut for hay. Hay is about us salable as
cotton, and far more profitable. Very
large money can be made on Crab grass
| if little care is bestowed upon the
preparation of the land and timely cut
| ting of the hay. One drawback to the
pasturage question is the fencing. But
few dollars spent in good posts and
wire will furnish fences for long time.
Perhaps a simpler and better method
would be to ditch around tho pastures
and run single wire on top of the bank.
A good deal of thought and money has
been spent on hedges. So far they have
proved failure in the south. Plants
that make a good hedge north
grow too rank and struggling in our
climate. The Usage orange grows too
rank, fails to hedge and becomes a
nuisance. The Cherokee rose is liable
to the same objection.
The ditch and wire are the cheapest
and most satisfactory. There is a
Slated wire fence that promises WELL
But let each farmer study his pastur-
age problem. Discuss it in all our al
lance meetings.
In my opinion it is the foundation of
future prosperity'in the south. Grass
is the great food crop of the world. We
have spent too much energy and time
and money in killing grass Now let
us turn and give some though to raising
grass, both for hay and grazing but es-
pecially for pasturage. james b. Hun
