Consumption Cured in Texas.

A. w. Alexander, of Waxahach
lie, Texas, writes us that he had suffered
for several years with lung trouble,
and was slowly sinking under this aw-
full dlsease-consumption.. Slowly but
surely he was being driven INTO the
grave. Some kind friend handed him
a descriptive circular Of Swamp Angel
Medicine. He read, was CONVINCED,
and ordered one dozen bottles From
the LIST days use he whipped the enemy.
He has destroyed the germs in every
nook and corner of his body, forced
the digestion and assimilation Of his
food, with Swamp Angel Medicine, and
health naturally followed. He has
written us several enthusiastic letterss
but too long for publication. He is
asked what wonderful medicn e j

Stick to the Dairy.

Mr.. A. P McKinstry, probably one OF
the best all-around dairymen in Mime
sofa, writes the Press-News an article
contrasting the relative success of the
creamery business over independent
ownership and the cooperative plan.
He mentions that about 1880 a half
dozen parties, including himself, en-
gagged in the creamery business as in
dividual owners. Though all were
careful, prudent business men, after
varied experience all have retired from
business or failed, the two holding out
the longest owing large sums to farm
ers. He says that the number of cream
cries owned by individuals in Mime
sofa are exceedingly small, as it is i'm
possible TO do business in competition
with those conducted on the cooper
alive plan. The latter take out the 3
per cent sinking fund.- pay the expense
and divide the remaining pro rata
among its patrons. They elect a board
of managers, who lend their credit to
the association by signing joint note;
meet once a month (without pay), and
so long as the milk comes the debt
must decrease. The rate il decreases
will depend on the amount of milk re-
ceived by each. To those farmers VINO
talk about giving up the dairy for
wheat. he advises to look about and
see who is in best shape-go and ask
the local banks about the financial
standing of these two classes; ask the
business men how the two classes
stand on their books, and you will find
that it still pays best to stick to the

Treatment Of Alkali Soils.

Bulletin % of Wyoming station treats
&C the cause, prevention and treatment
of injuries by alkali in the soils of the
arid districts of the west. 1t is not SO
comprehensive as the California bulletin
by DR.. Hilgard. digested in these col
umns few weeks ago. but il contains
a few points worthy of note.
The public know of two kinds of alkal
black and white alkali- Black alkali is
carbonate of soda, and is much the worst
kind. White alkali may be sulphate OF
soda (Glauber salts), sulphate of mag
nesia Epson salts), or common salt
Injuries by alkali are of three kinds
The bark of the plants is rotted and cor
rcded at the surface of the ground. the
sci is puddled or formed into a kind OF
cement and the vitality of the plant is
impaired. Seed fails to sprout or sprouts
brt slowly in alkali soils.
Unless carefully treated, alkali soils
row worse as cultivation continues r.
.ioation waters and rain dissolve the al
kali in the lower soil, and as the soil
dries out these waters rise TO the sur
face, evaporate and leave the alkali as a
crust on the ground In the alkan re-
g.ons, much of the water used for irrl-
CATION contains considerable alkal.
Alfalfa and other crops that shade the
land prevent the crusting of the surface
Keeping a mulch of fine earth on the sur
face by frequent and shallow cultivation
also prevents crustinS
Alfalfa, mellilotus and sugar beets do
better than most other staple crops on
alkali lands. Rye withstands the attacks
OF alkali better than any other grain,
and wheat stands second and barley
third Oats and turnips are easily de-
strcyed.
Tie Australian salt bush grows we'll
or strong alkali lands. and ii is said TO
make very good forage. Such crops may
gradually exhaust the soil of its. alkali
pcisons and put it in condition for gen.
eral farming.

worth of butter The calf died when six
weeks old. We both decided that the
FIX and butter being so much better

regret the purchase. but that we would
not be able to make the COW pay for her
self by her butter, as we had thought. l
should have said that we sold Sl2 worth
Of butter besides supplying the family
four in number-with some years a hired
man. We hoped, however. to sell some
of the offspring. In January. 1894, she

the pail again. this time dropping heifer
calf. which We have, and valne very
highly. During the milking period we
sold $50 worth of butter, having MIXED
IL addition two common cows. four

rot sell earlier. In December. 1895, the

calf IS now tive months old. We ship
five pounds of butter per week at 20 cents
