There is more catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. Doctors pronounced it a
local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing
to cure with local treatment, pro-
nounced it incurable Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitution
al disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls

Farm Notes.

See that the farm machinery is prop.
erly housed.
. Many farmers have trusted entirely
to the native richness Of their soil, and
have allowed the manure to 60 waste.
and have neglected rotation till the
land is run down.
It will not take long to NOW the
weeds in the pastures and in the lanes
and it will make the farm look 100 per
cent better, to say nothing Of giving the
grass a chance.
The roads in most parts of the
country are an index to the enterprise
and thrift of the farmers living ada
cent thereto. The men who are hunt
ing for forms never drive very far out
bud road to hunt for location.
1t is about time every tiller Of the
soil to settle down to some definite.
legitimate line Of farming and stay
with IT. There is nothing In eternally
shifting about, trying to strike good
thing where money will come fast and
easy.
A farmer Of Sabine county, Neh.. has
been experimenting with popcorn for
a number Of years With such success
that he has this year planted 100 acres.

PREPARATIONS FOR SOWING.

best Methods Of Gettine Ready to
Pat In Fail Wheat.
The best soil for wheat IL rather
compact clayey loan, well drained; but
quite sandy soil can be made to produce
fair crops by good culture. To prepare
ground for wheat It should be broken
deeply, not later than the middle Of Au-
gust; earlier would be better. While
the breaking should be deep, we must
not forget to do it in time, SO the
crop Of green stun turned under, let 1t
be weeds, clover, or whatever 1t may,
will have sufficient time to be well
decayed and the soil settled into the
proper condition to sow to wheat. All
weeds should be kept down after break
ing till time for sowing by frequent
borrowings and rolling, by which time
the soil shall be fine and free from
clods. To prepare corn ground, IL the
corn has been cultivated as 1t should
be. 1t can be got in good order by run
ming the cultivator deep and close over
the ground crossways, Of the corn was
drilled, SO as to tear up the corn stub
BILE better; and then harrow both ways
and roll. If not In right condition to
SOW. Harrow and roll until It Is right,
for nothing is lost by getting the ground
In condition before seeding to any kind
Of seed. But If the corn can he got
out Of the way in time, I prefer break
ing the corn ground, and then working
down to the right condition by means
OF q good harrow and roller, as stated
above. think that a seed bed for
wheat should be broken deep and then
packed by narrowing and rolling, but
the harrow should be run ahead Of the
drill to furnish loose, fine dirt to cover
the wheat, which should not be deeper
than one and one-half inches. The
best time for sowing has been with us
for the last few years from the LIST until
about the middle Of September. As to
quantity, I think that one and one
fourth bushels to the acre is the best.
As to fertilizer, about $50 or 200 pounds
Of good raw be1e should be drilled
with the wheat in our section to make
good crop Of Neutrality-suspicious.
