and later on thin out to 10 inches in thu
rows. 1t can also be sown in beds and
transplanted to the above distance after
attaining sufficient size. The MATT
sowings are made in June and July
Ordinary good soil and cultivation il
nll IL requires. When nearly full
grown 1t is blanched in the following
manner: Gather up the leaves and tie
them by their tips in conical form,
thereby excluding the light and air
from their inner leaves, which then
blanch to a beautiful yellowish white.
This process takes two to five weeks,
according to the temperature, bleach
ing fastest in warm weather. An
other method is to lay clean boards
right over the plants which excludes
the air and light. Tie mp at different
times as it only keeps short time
after blanching. For winter use take

dry cellar One ounce sows 100 feet of

are not wholly comfortable, and to do
her best dairy COW must at all times
which is shown in the accompanying
illustration. The cows are hitched
with chains that slide up and down
upon a rod, two cows in each wide
stall, or one in a narrow stall as
preferred. There is solid partition

of each COW to her crib at feeding
time. When the ration has been eaten
the doors are closed and buttoned.
which forces the cows to stand back
until their hind feet come to the edge
of the gutter, and to lie down also in
that situation. When the doors are
closed any manure that has fallen
upon the platform while the cows
have been standing ahead feeding is
scraped into the gutter, and the COWS
left until the next feeding.
Where the manure cellar is under
the cattle it will be found most con-
venient to have the manure traps in
the raised walk, as shown, rather than
in the bottom of the gutter. where
they are buried beneath the manure
and filthy to handle. Handy shelves
that are hinged and folded against the
wall when not in use are shown at the
rear of the raised walk. The doors
the cows heads to the cribs
in front will be found exceedingly
when feeding grain, roots
or ensilage. One can then put the
ration in the crib without molestation
from the horns or nose of the animal,
eager to get at its breakfast or dinner
The door can then be unbuttoned and
allowed to swing in against the side

4 YOUNG GIRLS TRIALS.
Nervous Troubles End In st. vi
tus' Dance.
Physicians PowerIcss-The Story Told By
the ChIld's Mother.

EFfom tbs Reporter, Somerset XVI
| Among the foot hills OF the CHAMBERLAIN
| Mountains, near the town Of Flat Rock is
! the happy home of James McPherrou.
Four months ago the daughter OF the fam
| lily, happy girl of sixteen, was stricken
with st. Vitus' dance. The leading physi-
clans were consulted but without avail. She
grew pale and thin under the terrible nerv-
Gus strain and was fast losing her mental
powers. In fact the thought of placing her
in an asylum was seriously considered. Her
case has been so widely talked about that
the report of her cure was like modcrnizing
a miracle Of old. To reporter who visited
the home the mother said:
"Yes, the reports of my daughters sick
ness and cure are true as you hear them
Her affection grew into st. Vitus' dance
from an aggravated form of weakness and
nervous trouble peculiar to her sex. Every
source of help was followed to the end, but
it seemed that physicians and medicine were
powerless. Day by day she grew worse un-
til we dcspaired of her life At times she al
most went into commissions. She got SO that
we had to watch her to keep her from wan
dering away and you can imagine the care
she was.
"About the time when our misery was
greatest and all hope had fed, road Of
another case, almost similar, that had been
cured by medicine known as DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. Almostin desperation secured
some of the pills aud from that day on the
wonderful work of restoration commenced;
the nervousness left, her cheeks grew bright
with the color of health, she gained flesh
and grew strSng both mentally and physi.
cally until to-day she is the very picture of
good health and happiness.
'It is no wonder that speak in glowing
terms of Pink Pills to every ailing person
meet. They saved my daughters life and
am grateful"
The foregoing is but one of many wonder
full cures that have been credited to DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People In
many cases the reported cures have been
investigated by the leading newspapers and
verified in every possible manner. Their
fame has spread to the far ends of civiliza-
ton and there is hardly drag store in this
country or abroad where they cannot be
found.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
are now given to the public as an unfailing
blood builder and nerve restorer, curing all
forms OF weakness arising from watery
condition of the blood or shattered nerves
The pills are sold by all dealers, or will be
sent post paid on receipt of price $50 cents a
box, or six boxes for <2.50-they are never
sold in bulk or by the 1907 by addressing DR..

Making Dairy Animals Comfortable and
Keeping Them Clean.
Clean cows and comfortable COWS
the two factors go together in making
the dairy business profitable. have
worked hard to keep cows clean in
their stalls. but could never succeed
until 1 had them hitched on a plat
form at least eight inches above the
bottom of the gutter, and arranged so
that their hind feet would come just at
the rear edge of the platform. Then
no manure falls upon the platform and
the cow is always dry and clean.
1t requires some skill, however, to so
arrange the cows as to stanchions, or
ties, that they will stand naturally,
and for most of the time, with their
hind feet just at the rear edge of the
platform. The upright stanchions will
accomplish this, and where they are
made to swing from side to side they
allow considerable freedom of move
