I3Iddy Takes the Cake.

Our sheep breeders point with pride
to the fact that the sheep is a double
geared animal, so far as profit is con-
cerned. and that either the lamb or the
wool, on the pelt or off it, will pay for
its annual keep. The advocates of ths
"granger's COW" say here is milk every
day if you want it, whether for butter
or cheese, and a calf once a year
Horsemen Fpoint to the brood mare
that will work her way and give the
colt as clear profit. Biddy, however,
beats them all.
First, there are the eggs fresh and
bright, cash any day in the year;
young chickens when she gets tired
and needs a couple of months vaca-
ton; chickens which in from th1ee to
five months are cash crop for which
the world will pay a good price; then
manure fit to grow premium crops of
corn, and lastly the body of the hen it
self, valuable product after yielding
three distinct profits. A double pur.
pose animal is a good thing, but Biddy
doubles the double-purpose and
cacl<les, as she has clearly a right to
do.-Homestead.

Feeding Horses.


A great many horses are injured and
some of them utterly spoiled by inn
proper feeding, III many cases the
material used is not especially adapted
to the needs of the animals, while in
others it is actually injurious
Many cases of heaves are caused by
feeding musty hay, and even more all
ments must be traced to the Use Of
damaged grain. There are also many
cases of diseases resulting from the im=
pr oper use of good materials. While q
few feed too little hay, there are many
who give their horses altogether too
large a quantity:
They fill their hangers or sacks, and
when the animals have disposed of what
they received a new supply is given.
In this way. when the horses are in the
barn, most of the time they are, as far
as quantity is concerned, greatly over
fed.
When these horses are required for
work. and really need food more than
when they are comparatively idle, they
receive d mitch smaller quantity.
The safe way to do in the matter is
to feed the horses regularly, giving him
an abundant quantity, not overlooking
him. When work is required grain
should be added to the hay in proper
ton to the work required.
Even when the horse is idle small
quantities of grain fed with this hay
will be better for him. and will be more
profitable for the owner than the use of
hay alone.-Horse World.

has simply improved the mechanical
condition of the clay soil. Clear sands
can also be improved in texture. swell

by addition of muck or mold. But as
the average muck contains a considera-

directly as a manure, where nitrogen

come availab BILE naturally in the course

! have a fertilizing value of nine dollars

of it were available.
Owners of muck beds miss good
chance if they refuse to get out a lot of
muck and let it become dry. 1t is an
admirable absorbent in stables and
henhouses, and when used as bedding
becomes a rich and effective manure,
good for any crop which the gardener
( grows, and for any kind of soil. Now,
while the swamps are dry. is a good

down to a common Pimple.
He has tried it in over eleven hundred

Of its value, all within twenty miles of

A benefit is always experienced from
the first bottle, and perfect cure is war
yanted when the right quantity is taken.
When the lungs are affected it causes
shooting pains, like needles passing
through them; the same with the Liver or

stopped, and always disappears in week
after taking it. -
If the stomach is foul or bilious it will

CHICAGO, July 2o.-For the next
three days Swedish citizens from
many parts of the country will he Id
high publication at the Worlds
Fair. The festivities commenced
this morning with large procession
through the business district, and
thence to the boat landing at
Jackson Park. 1t was led BY the
American Union of Swedish
Singers, made up of singing
societies from different parts of the
country, followed by military and
civic societies, and a division of
church organizations. On reaching
jackson Park the procession was
reviewed by the royal Swedish com.
missioner and invited guests from
the balcony of the Swedish pavilion.
From here the march was continued
to Festival Hall where grand
Swedish concert was given. Later
in the day a celebration of speeches,
song and music was held in front of
the royal Swedish headquarters.
