FISH FARMING PAYS,
Kansas Man Gives the Results of
His Experience.

A Kansas Man Gives the Results of
His Experience.
The Rural World has on many occa-
sions said that an acre of water devoted
to fish culture would bring much larger
returns than if devoted to general farm
ing. Mr.. Lyons, of Kansas, has been
raising fish and has ponds devoted to
them, as well as furnishing ice for win
ter. Many of the fish live on crawfish
and other natural food about the ponds.
But that is not sufficient to supply the
vast number there now. Mr.. LYONS
feeds them corn. He grinds it by steam
power and then steams the meal. Five
bushels of this ground steamed corn is a
feed for each of the two principal ponds.
On 1T the fish thrive, and there are now
many there that will weigh as much as
30 or IS pounds. Mr.. Lyons watches
them as one would herd of cattle, is
as careful about them as the most par
ticular stockman. He studied their ma
ture and knows what to do with them
under varying circumstances. He
works with them day and night, when
ever they need attention. A careful esti-
mate of the supply there now, made by
experienced men, puts it at so tons,
making them worth close to $4,000.
The work on the ponds and dams has
made them worth an easy $4,000, MAX
ing valuable plant of it. The income
from the fish would pay a very large
rate of interest on $4,000 for years to
come.

FARM WAGON AND CORN CUTTER.

lower the front end to cut the height
that you want by the washers on the
front axle. l cut about three or four
inches high. Two men gather the corn
and lay it back on the platform; one
gathers while the other lays his armful
back. Put stakes in the hind end We
cut row of average corn, about 60
rods, in ten to twelve minutes. Drive
to the stackyard and rick it; we do not
shock it. To rick it, drive stout stakes
and tie on poles or nail on fence board
high enough to lean the fodder against;
next load drive on the other side. Build
as thick as will cure well. After it is
partly cured you can add on more.
They never blow down. The ends some
times blow down, but f'prevent that
by sewing few feet of the ends with
binder Irvine, using an end gate rod
for needle.-Farm and Home.

FACTS FOR FARMERS,

Always use sufficient bedding in the
stables to absorb and save all of the
liquid manure.
When farmer buys thing that he
can produce as cheaply, he is running
opposition to himself.
Common red clover and orchard
grass do well together, because they
ripen at about the same time.
Make, save and apply all of the
manure possible. 1t is the poorest of
economy to allow manure to go to
waste on the farm and try commercial
fertilizers.
Budding has one advantage over
grating, and that is there is no proba-
bility of the budded limb starting out
roots of its own, as is sometimes the
case when grafted.-Farmers' Union.

FARM AND GARDEN.
FOR THE CORN FIELD.
A Handy Farm Wagon and Reliable
Harvester Combined.


Harvester Combined.
The handy wagon, shown herewith,
use fully as much as do my ordinary
farm wagon. To build it l used six
hard pine planks, a, ~ inches wide and
~ inches thick. The two middle
planks, al and az, are II feet long,
the outside planks, a a a, two on each
side, are IA feet. They are bolted to-
gether with two by six piece, b, on top
at each end, with five-sixteen inch bolts.
AT the front end of the two middle
planks on the under side put an old
wagon rocker iron plate, G; on the up
per side piece of two by six, c, d, bolt
ed through the old rocker plate; bore
a hole for king-bolt. About Az feet
from the hind end, bolted with three
eighths-inch bolts piece of four by
six hard pine, c, eight feet long for the
hind axle. For wheels 1 bought two
old mowers, took them apart, had the
axles cut in two and bolted with clips
to the under side of each axle, letting
them into the wood one-half of their
thickness. The front axle is four feet
two inches long with hole in center
for kingbolt which has head on low
er end and hole for pin in the upper
end. The front end of the platform can
be raised or lowered by using washers
on top of front axle. A one-half inch
iron rod with loops in each end, one
end on the kingbolt, the other bolted on
top of platform, is to pull by. The
front end has to be kept up to under
side of front axle to keep from bending
the kingbolt The tongue is framed
into cross-piece three feet long and
braced with iron braces. The tongue is
fastened to front axle by eye bolts. On
the tongue just back of evener is bolted
an old mower spring with seat so that
man in the seat will nearly balance the
tongue. Use the evener for foot rest
We use it to cut all of our corn for
fodder by boiling knife on the under
side of near front corner, as shown at
b. The knife is made by welding to-
gether two old 16-inch steel pillow points
laid fiat side up. The back end is stayed
bya piece of heavy old wagon tire bolt
ed to under side of platform with an
other in the middle. Fasten a stout
board to the under side of hind axle, the
front end to fit the back knife. Fasten
with bolt to the stay of the knife
The back end of knife should be a little
higher than the front end. Raise or

CIRCULAR FEED RACK.
Especially Useful Where Large Flocks
of Sheep Are Kept.


For feeding hay, straw, cornstalks or
other rough feed to sheep circular
feed rack is sometimes wanted. For
the construction of one as outlined be-
low take two boards (aa) 1x12 inches
and the length it is desired the diameter
of the rack to be. My rack is IA feet in
diameter, but rack may be similarly
constructed 16, IS or 90 feet, as desired.
AT the center of each board saw notch
(b) half way across so that they will
frame together, crossing at right an
giles. You then have a base of opera
tons, and as many boards (o) as desired
can be placed between and fitted into
the corners. Such boards will be half
the length of boardsaa Measure in from
each out end top edge 16 or IS inches,
or as far as it is desired to have the bot
tom of the rack wide, as at C, and then
nail a stout cleat (d) perpendicularly
or at any desired angle, provided the
top of the rack is to be wider than the
bottom. Saw down close to the strip
(e) inches deep, taking out a piece
1R inches wide. Next to this strip
bend around some half-inch Eastwood
or elm boards (D and nail them fast to
the 1x4 in d. Next to this bend and in

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.
