Lime on Land.-Our cultivated crops
contain on an average about as much
lime as potash. While it is necessary
that it should be thoroughly mixed with
the earth it should be kept near the
surface, as it is liable to sink into the
soil. In whatever way it is applied it
is we'll to remember that the carbonic
acid which has been expelled from it by
the heat is quickly regained from the
atmosphere, and it should in conse-
quence of this be as little exposed to
the air as possible before being applied
to the land. 1t should be put upon the
land as soon as practicable after slak
ing BY watching the effect of a small
application the farmer will be able to
judge whether his lands require it in
larger quantities, or whether it's use on
his particular soil is at all beneficial
since there is scarcely anything that is
as dependent upon repeated experiment
and so Independent Of all definite rules
as ferti.izing, owing to the great diver
sity of soils, the difference in their me-
chanical condition and various other
causes.-Agricultural Gazette (Tas-
mania)
"Butterine" No More.-A recent ruiz
ing of the Treasury Department will
tend practically to make the word but
terine obsolete and otherwise to render
the sale of oleo under the guise of but
ter more difficult. The order from the
Treasury Department is in part as fol-
lows: The use of any trade mark,
label, brand, picture, illustration or ad.
vertising or descriptive device repre-
senting COW, or dairy farm or in any
other form indicating the oleomarga-
rine to be a product of the dairy or
calculated to induce the belief that it
is such dairy product is inadmissible.
The use of the word "butterine" is also
inadmissible since section of the act
of August. 1856. prescribed that but

as "oleomargarine." Butchers Adyo-

A Fine Dairy.-Among the most sue
cessful dairymen in Central New York
may be named Augustus Sage OF
Holmesville, near South New Berlin.
HIS farm contains eighty acres and
Keeps thirty eight head of Holstein
cattle, twelve sheep and his teams.
Mr.. Sage says there is scarcely a limit
to the production of an acre of lanS
| or OF the amount of milk a COW will
give when properly bred and cared
for. Mr.. Sage has raised and grown on
his farm his present number of cows.
| Mr.. Valkenburgh, deputy state dairy
commissioner, after examining the
herd, said: This is the finest dairy
| OF cows and shows the best breeding
for the production of milk of any dairy
within my knowledge" -Oneonta Her.

Mrs. Lntitia Kincade.

In sadness and sorrow we write
this brief memorial sketch of a
good woman. She was the eldest
daughter of Mr.. Thomas A. and
Mrs. Virginia b. Lemaster, and
the wife of Mr.. John e.. Kincade.
She was born on the 9th of March,
1853, and passed from earth to a
better home on the 14th day of
July, 1896, in the 39th year of her
life.
She was a member of the church
for about fifteen years, and was
ready and willing to go. She
regretted to leave her family, but,
she said that it wasall right. From
the first of her illness she felt that
she could not got well, and fire.
quently said that she would soon
have to leave her boys.
A short while before she died
she called her friends around her,
and told them that she had to leave
them, and to meet her in heaven.
She told her boys to go to Sunday
School. She said she was going
home to Jesus and be with Lottie,
Cher little girl that died about ten
years ago. She was ill for about
six weeks and suffered much, but
she passed quietly away. AL
though she has left this world for
n better and happier home, her
memory will live and continue its
good influence in tho bereaved
home, in the church and in the
community in which she-lived.
Her name with MS will linger
While we are here below;
Our hearts are filed with sadness,
And tears of sorrow flow.
She has left this world of trouble,
For II better home above;
She has gone to live with Jesus.
Where all is peace and love.

"For five weeks / lived in cold
water, so to speak" writes a man
who suffered terribly from indiges-
ton.
He could hardly keep anything
in his stomach. What stayed
wasn't properly digested and gave
him terrible pangs.
This is not an uncommon case.
Dyspeptics don't get enough nour-
ishment. They are generally thin
and weak.
They may eat enough but they
don't digest enough. Much of
what they eat turns iuto poison.
If this keeps on there is no telling
aohat disease they may get next.
That's why it's best to take Sha-
ker Digestive Cordial. as soon as

1t cures all the evils of indiges-
ton, and prevents the evils which
indigestion causes.

assault was made on editor Nc
Dougal, of the Ceredo Advance,
