az am happy to state to you and
to suffering humanity, that my wife
has used your wonderful remedy,
August Flower, for sick headache
and palpitation of the heart, with
satisfactory results. For several years
she has been a great sufferer, has
been under the treatment of eminent
physicians in this city and Boston,
and found little relief. She was in

gave immediate relief. We cannot

AsoUT The HORN FLY.
Applications Which Have Been Known
to Destroy the Pest.

-
to Destroy the Pest.
2 The treatment for the horn fly is
mostly preventive in its nature. and
consists of the application to the cattle
of odorous substances which will keep
the flies from the animals. For this
purpose great many substances have
been recommended, but most of them
have proved of but little value. The
following, however, have given the
most satisfactory results at our hands.
: First ''Gnat-oil," made as follows:
Crude carbolic acid, one ounce; penny.
royal, one-half to ono ounce; sulphur,
one fourth of pound; crude cotton
seed oil. one gallon Mix well, and
apply with brush or cloth to the back
and shoulders of the cattle. The crude
cotton-seed oil is cheaper than the
other oils, although fish-oil and lard
oil are equally as good in making the
above3 ze
Second. .Fish-oil and tar mixed and
applied as above is equally effective.
The tar is mixed with the fish-oil so
that the odor may last longer and thus
keep the flies away from the animals a
greater length of time. Either of the
above will keep the flies away from the
animals for several days, after which
the application should be repeated.
! Third. The flies breed in fresh man.
ure. 1t is thus important that the
-barn-yards be kept as clean and free
from manure as possible. Lime placed
upon the manure will kill the larvm.-

Intensive methods in stock-growing
are just as peedful as in any other
branch of agriculture. The first step
toward this is to have thoroughly good
cattle; fewer, If need be, but better.
Have no more than can be fed bounti-
fully all the year through. Work for
early maturity all the time. Breed up
constantly by selection and the intro
ductiou of new blood Never rest con-
tent until you have not only good stock,

A Jolly Irishman was visiting the

the vessel, as he termed it, and was
