Your blood is what nouriahes your

Your blood is what nourishes your
body.
New blood is made every minute.
1t goes to the lungs, gets fresh air, and
then passes through the body. In pass
ing, 1t deposits new flesh, fat, bones,
ETC., and takes up worn out matter.
This worn out matter goes to the kid
neys. The kidneys filter it out of the
blood and throw it out of the body.
That is, when they are we'll, they do.
When your kidneys are well, they
act, as perfect filters. to keep your
blood pure. When they are sick. they
act imperfectly. They leave the bad
matter ill., Sometimes they take out
the good.
There is nothing more poisonous than
bad blood.
A proof of this is rheumatism. 1t is
simply blood poisoning caused by the
bad matter left in the blood by sick
kidneys.
Bright's disease is the kidneys work
ing the other way-taking the good
food out of the blood
Both kinds of kidney sickness are
dangerous.
Both can be cured by DR.. Hobbs
Sparagus Kidney Pills.
One of the most wonderful facts of
our body is this natural filter inside
US. Our kidneys are very important
organs. We don't take enough care of
them. We are sick oftener than there
is any need for It is simply because
we take no heed to our kidneys.
Sick kidneys show their effects in
many different diseases.
Rheumatism and Bright's disease
IN
gia, Pain in the Back, Dizziness, Blad-
lessness, Nervousness.
These are only a few symptoms, or
so-called diseases" Back of them all
are the sick kidneys.
Once the filters can be made to work
all these symptoms will disappear.

Barn ventilation.

The discussion of the subject of tu-
berculosis in cattle necessarily in
wolves the subject of the causes of the
same which are often found in illy
ventilated barns. The tendency of the
farmer in winter is to get a large
amount of warmth for his cattle so as
to save the cost of feed. To secure
heat he has supplied little room for
his cows and has shut out the cold air
as much as possible. An authority
upon the health of the COW says that
the stable, to be healthy, should be
well ventilated and free from draughts
and to accomplish this air should be
admitted at the door line and sufficient
space should be provided at the apex
of the roof to allow the heated air to
escape. Six hundred cubic feet of air
is necessary for Shorthorns and their
grades, and less of course for the
smaller breeds.
But many farmer will be confront
ed by the impossibility of building a
larger barn for the purpose of securing
the necessary extra amount of air
space. The system of yentilating
named above is poor one, as it is not
economical of fresh. warm air and it
subjects cattle to direct draughtS of
cold air. 1t is the system that has
been long condemned by architects.
To supply men or animals with pure
air at the lowest cost, the impure air
should not escape at the highest point,
but at the lowest point near the floor.
Fresh air should be admitted near
the floor by shaft reaching to the
outside of the barn. Another shaft a
foot or more square should run the
whole height of the barn and pierce
the roof outside. This shaft should
extend to within foot of the bottom
of the stable. AS the air taken in
from out of doors becomes heated it
rises and as it becomes impure it will
seek an outlet at the only point it can
get it, up the shaft. Thus the air in
the stable, instead of being cold all
the time, will always be warm, and,
being continually changed will be
fresh.-Orange County Farmer

The proper time to apply fertilizers
for clover is with the wheat in the fall
A liberal supply of potash with the
wheat manure, will not only realize
the highest efficiency of the other fer
tilizing elements present but also ma
teriaIly ASSIST in obtaining a good
stand of clover That potash and lime
are the two most important fertilizers
for clover, is now pretty generally uu-
derstood. 1t has been freely claimed
that the cause of the frequent failure
10 this crop of recent years is due TO
the inadequate applications of potash
| In the fertilizers used when seeding
! down wheat. The wheat crop draws
| heavily upon potash notwithstanding
! the popular opinion to the contrary.
| Nearly three quarters of the potash in
the wheat crop is removed in the
grain and straw. Even ii there has
! been a deficiency OF ammonia, the
straw has taken very large proper
| ton OF the potash, though the yield OF
grain has been insignificant.
Glover and other leguminous plants
must have potash and lUme, and they
will forage deeply in them; but, failing
to find a supply, a failure is lneyita-
BILE. In those cases in which the soil
Is unusually rich in potash and lime
bearing minerals, the availability of
same is materially promoted by Il
thorough and continuous cultivation.
1t must be remembered that the clo-
yer crop cannot be worked in this way,
"tillage is manure" but the crop can
not be titled in this sense.
The Importance of ample supplies OF
potash for q good clover stand is well
recognized, and it is best applied with
the wheat fertilizer in the winter
wheat rotation. There are no definite
quantities which may be safely as
signed,as the needs of lands vary with
the nature of the soil, length of time
under cultivation, etc. A safe PROPOSE
ton is to lime to the extent of about
thirty bushels per acre every four
years, and have the potash in the
wheat fertilizer, not less than the
available phosphoric acid, preferably
more. That is, if the phosphoric acid
available is s per cent the potash
should be not less than s per cent.
and a surer clover stand would follow
a percentage of ten.
There has been much talk Of using
crimson clover or COW peas as q sue
cessor to red clover. The value of the
plants lies in their ability to store up
nitrogen in the atmosphere; this pro-
cess requires practically the same con
ditions in one that it requires in I'm
other. For the same amount of value
in vegetable substance, the cow peas
and crimson clover will require as
much potash as red clover. The rea
son that the practice does not seen
to indicate this as a fact of expert
ence, is due to the method of planting
Red clover is planted with wheat
which is very eXacting potash con
sumner. 1t will take its potash fol
straw, though little grain is produced
and when wheat is insufficiently fer
tilted, which is almost always til
case, the potash in the removed straw
seriously restricts the conditions ia
vorable to the growth of clover. Grim

known are planted under other condi

Feeding Sheep with Cottonseed
Meal

Feeding sheep with Cottonseed
Meal
Sheep soon learn to like cottonseed
meal. Some will refuse it at first, as
will also some cattle. In the Cornell
experiment station Bulletin No. AZ is
a record of feeding lambs weighing on
an average trifie less than 60 pounds
each, from Dec. S to April % inclusive.
The ration, for lot 1, for five lambs
for a period of 40 days was: Wheat
bran 3S2 pounds, cottonseed meal 191,
linseed meal SO, hay COG, corn ensilage
1,166 pounds. The gain was 26.5
pounds per head. AS most readers are
! better acquainted with the gain in cat
tie than in sheep, the weights, etc,
might be applied to steers. Fifteen of
| these lambs would equal 900-pound
steer. Since each lamb gained 26.5
pounds, fifteen would have gained 397
pounds. If a steer of 900 pounds be
substituted for the fifteen lambs
! weighing 900 pounds and the total
gain be divided by 40, the number of
I days the lambs were fed, is shows
! phenomenal gain of 2.S pounds per day
for the steer
! LIZ dhOIASI Will u1uC
! lambs weighing 56 pounds each, fed
| 103 days on highly heterogeneous grain
/ rational mixture of one pound of lin
i seed meal, one of cottonseed meal and
! Ia pounds of bran, with hay and roots
] the gain was 24.5 pounds per lamb
/ for the entire period. Computing as
before, the gain would be equal to 3S
pounds per day for the steer. While
| the gain made by the lambs is not in
| all respects comparable with single
steer of equal weight, yet the COM
| parison helps to show the large gain
and the results of foods containing a
| liberal amount of cottonseed meal
Roots, cottOnseed meal, bran and clo-
yer hay fed in connection with enough
corn to slightly widen the ration, may
be considered ideal for sheep feeding.
At the same station cows were fed a
grain ration, one-half of which was
cottOnSeed meal without any deleter-
ious effects.-Prof. Roberts in Ameri
