The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all it's stages, and that is
Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the
only positive cure known to the medical
fraternity. Catarrh being a constitu-
tional disease, requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
inter nally, acting directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces OF the system, there
by destroying the foundation Of the dis.
ease, and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The proprietors

Pianos.

There are many cheap, inferior pianos
in the market which can be obtained on
almost any terms. They are dear at any
price. A high.class instrument may cost
little more, but it is cheapest in the
end, besides being superior in tone and
volume, and much more satisfactory
Such one is the Wing piano. You can
have twenty days trial of it without cost

A Letter.

Letter.
To the friends Of the Episcopal church Of
, Aberdeen:
have just received word from Rev.
Charles S. Williams, of Vancouver, that
he is still suffering severely from a cold
contracted some three weeks since, and
is confined to his house. The doctor de-
,nands for him complete rest for the
present. That there may be no inter-
mission in the services, have arranged
with Rev. Edward Davis to take charge
as temporary supply, and he will hold
services as usual on Sunday, October 10.
We all hope that Mr.. Williams will be
able to report for duty very soon, and
that his health may be speedily restored
to him. With best wishes, am,
Very sincerely yours,

Negotiations are about completed by
which Ed. Benn and Chas. Green secure
control Of the electric light plant under a
long lease. The arrangements are ex.

enterprising gentlemen take possession.
1t is their purpose if enough patronage
can be secured to operate the plant all
night.
The home patronage idea which some
of the Sound cities have laid claim to as
"their" idea, seems to obtain among our
people, and might be termed the "Aber-
deem idea," at least so far as meat is con-
cerned, for Bert Morse has not only
demonstrated the superiority of the home
grown meat, but his increasing trade
shows that the people will have it. Try
some.
DR.. Bright's sermon last Sunday even

house. His ideas OF the new woman diff

the daily press. According to his ideas
she is able to take care of herself, wear
such costume as best suits the occupation
of the hour, preferring modest bloomer
to waistless ballroom dress, and being
all the time lady still.
The Woman's Relief Corps of this city
surprised the local Sons OF Veterans, at

present with sandwiches, cake and coffee.
After this feast DR.. Bright was called on
for speech, to which he responded in
his usual interesting and happy manner.

so as to leave clear space from the
floor to the ridge, the whole length of
the barn, for using a fork or sings. AS
will be seen, the purlin posts run from
floor to rafters, with beam from near
the top of the main posts to these, and
the whole well braced. The slant
ing brace from beam to rafter, midway
between the main and purlin posts,
marked A, may be omitted if the
rafters are made strong enough to
support the roof without sagging.
For posts and beams, l would advise
SKIS, 8x10, or 10x1U-inch, according to
the kind of timber used. The braces
will be better if doubled, with AKA
scantling. By doubled is meant plac-
ing one on each side of the timber. BY
all means, they should be framed in,
so as to be pinned at each end; they
then brace both ways.
A barn of this size with 10-foot base
ment-it should not be less-wlll afford
plenty of room for 60 cows placed in
two rows in stalls heads out, and a
driveway for hauling manure in clean
ing the stables 1t will give stalls that
may be varied in size from to 81 feet;
or they may all be put in of the same
size. To ventilate the table, two
trunks or chutes may be run down
each side of the barn, not less than
three feet square, into the feeding
alleys in front of the cows These
should extend up the side of the
barn to the rafters, follow them up,
and unite from each side in the bot
tom of ventilating cupolas, which
should be provided with swinging
doors. In this case, doors may be placed
along the sides of the chutes to be
open SO as to use them for throwing
fodder and bedding from the loft to
the stable. Or, if preferred, and it is
certainly best, two trunks four feet
square may be run from the basement
to the cupola, being placed in the CEN
ter of the barn sideways, equi-distant
from the ends and having separate
chutes for forage. | am aware that,
theoretically, it is better to have these
ventilators go down to near the floor.
But practically, have never seen any
difference, so l would not try to have
tnem go GOWN II ADOPTED the plan OF
having separate ones near the center.
If 1 made them do double duty, and
placed them at the side of the barn,
would put them down to within three
feet of the floor if l wished. If the
stables are properly cleaned, and
plenty OF absorbents is used, | have
never seen any trouble in getting pure

Summer Food for Hogs.

A good clover pasture is one of the
best places for both brood sows and
their pigs. A mixture of grass is de-
sirable rather than otherwise. Blue
grass is best liked by hogs, but orchard
grass has advantages from its early
and luxuriant growth and because of
its unusual rapidity of growth after
being cut and eaten off even in dry
weather when blue grass grows slowly
or scarcely at all. For the spring pas
turage of sows and pigs rye starts early
and is quite palatable. A mixture of
oats and peas is much liked by many
southern hog raisers. Early sweet
corn, stalk and ear, is relished by
swine and is eaten with avidity. Dent
corn furnishes a succession of food.
Root crops have also been found of
great value and where artichoLes make
thrifty growth are a good and eco
nomical feed.-Farn and Home

Hon. Scion A. Thatcher said to a
Kansas audience: at is safe to say that
every question which contains within
its solution what Emerson calls moral
ity has found its staunchest advocates
and defenders, numerically at least, in
rural communities The seclusion of
the farmers life, the evenings devoted
to books and current litera ture, the
anxiety for lives of probity and useful
ness for his children, devoting many a
twilight hour to the planting of bright
and hopeful thoughts in earnest, in
quiring hearts-the room for medita-
ton upon the teachings and readings
of the night before, as many an almost
mechanical duty fills the hours-all
these aids and impulses bestow upon
the farmer and his children opportuni-
ties for right learning and right views
not possessed by those whose nights
are full of intrusions and alluring
anusements or enjoyments.
