In these columns that Reds GERMAN
COUCH AND KIDNEY CURE contains no
poison and can be given to children with
out the slightest danger. This is q great
thing to say, because the ordinary cough

The Germantown Telegraph gives

kick, give the stick another circle

completely subdued in two minutes
by the simple twist of the rope. The
device Is not patented, and is very eff
fective, as the cow soon learns that
every kick means an additional
twist of the rope and stick. OF course
the rope should be removed as soon
as possible after the milking is over,
as it is very powerful persuader

The principle of cooling is that wa
ter is forced by gravity or otherwise,
onto the roof of the building and the
evaporation takes up the heat. In
the illustration, IA Is a pipe which
runs up and connects with hori-
zontal pipe on the ridge and others
parallel to it about half way down
the roof. These, SAYS Farm and
Home, are perforated with small
holes and the water is forced through
them in small jets out on the roof.
1t runs down and is caught by the
cutters and then used for irrigation IL
necessary. The building is double
rooted and virtually double walled by
having closed veranda all around it.
1t is model dairy in every respect.
BY this construction and the means
adapted to apply water, the building
can be cooled in short time to any
desired temperature, even in the hot
test day in summer. The principle
is very simple one and could be APP
piled, where water is plenty, to other
uses, such as cooling ones dwelling
house, stables or a building for keep
ing meats, fruits and vegetables.

Audees of Whisky.

Ono day Senator Beck and ex-Gov.
Magofin visited Maj. Daviess, near
Harrodsburg, and the Major brought
out some prize whisky. Beck sampled
it straight first, then sought for its mer-
it in teddy, and again tried it with q
little ice and mint added. Meanwhile
the Governor slipped it in the shape of
grog. They would agree in regard to
only one point, that the liquor was
good, in fact, very superior liquor. The
Senator pronounced it McBrayer, the
Governor insisted that il was the ID. l..
Moore (known as the Cold Water)
brand. The Senator said it was fully 8
years old, the Governor limited it to 8.
The Senator imagined it tasted just q
little of iron, while the Governor
thought if there was any foreign flavor
it was that Of leather. At this point
the host observed: Gentlemen, there's
only gallon left in the barrel; there
was nearly three when you came; will
have it brought up aud opened and let
you see for yourself there is no adulter.
alton In my whisky"
The barrel was brought up and chs
head knocked out, and after straining
the remnant Of whisky there was found
in the dregs of charcoal small iron
key, with leather string tied to it.
The Major exclaimed again: "By
George, gentlemen, you are the best
judges of liquor in the world. There's
a key proving there was iron in it, and
leather showing Magoffin was right, and
rs for the brand, you see it is ID. l..

fve-gallon jug of seven-year-old Mo

gentlemen, in every particular, except
in regard TO its age, and you didn't miss

LIVE STOCK AND DAIRY.
Tho Best hog Ration.

The cheapest hog food we can pro-
duce is clover, but the best single
food is corn. In the combination OF
these two foods lie the best results.
Some say this necessitates exclusive
summer feeding. Not necessarily;
clover hay and clover enSilage form
part OF ration for hogs in many por-
tions Of the State In winter, and give
the best OF satisfaction, especially
where fed to mature stock kept for
breeding purposes. Some parties re-
port that they have kept brood sows
on good clover hay, with two pounds
of corn meal per day in addition, the
latter fed without preparation OF any
kind. While this style OF feeding is
practiced quite extensively in the
eastern part Of the State and by the
best farmers, cannot speak of it
from experience, but consider it
worthy of trial.
But / can speak from experience in
feeding grain on clover pasture, and
i prefer corn and can honestly say it
Is che OF the best, IL not the very best,
way to produce pork at low cost,
and 1t is somewhat strange so few
farmers avail themselves of its advan-
tages At present prices pork connot
be prOfitably produced on an all-grain
ration, and yet it is equally true it
cannot be produced on an all-grass
ration. But the person who has
never tried feeding limited amount
OF grain to thrifty hogs on good
clover pasture would be surprised at
the results. The practice of many
feeders of feeding milk to hogs on
grass in the absence of grain ration, is
not to be recommended. While young
pigs do not derive much benefit from
pastures except through the exercise
and contact with the soil, when the
weather Is suitable it is the safest
place to keep them, as old pens with
their unhealthy surroundings and bad
atmosphere are particularly injurious
Winter feeding should be avoided as
much as possible, especially the prac-
tice Of keeping what are termed store
hogs, whom not kept for breeding pur-

Advice for DyspeptIcs.

ga family doctor" gives the follow
ing advice to dyspeptics in Cassells
Family Magazine: 1.-THE greatest
mistakes of all overeating and eating
TOO often. So long as a person is
growing the system needs extra nour-
ishment to enable nature to build up
the framework of the body. But
adults have need of food only to sup
ply the materials for new blood
to make up for the waste of tissue.
The waste of tissue is constantly 60
ing on, to be sure, but only in direct
ratio to the work we do, whether
mental or bodily. Ii a greater guam
tfty of food is taken into the system
than can be used up, it is more dele
terious than II we had taken so much
sand The food so partaken of leaves
the stomach in an undigested form,
and never fails to work all kinds OF
mischief and instead of doing good
does injury, and weakcns the body
that il was intended TO strengthen.
1.-THE next most common mistake
that leads TO this form of debility is
the much-to-be-regretted practice of
eating a poisonous mixture of foods
at the same meal. The adjective
poisonous may be thought a strong
one, but 1t is not too much so. II
people who suffer from nervousness
would only live plainly for a month
or two in all probability they would
find renewed health, and with it
happiness and repose, TO which they
have been strangers for many years
They would positively find themselves
growing young again instead of grow
ing older, for the simple reason that
they would not now be living so fast
or so fegerishly."
