this than any other. There is not enough OF
either raised Merchants say that if it were
not for poultry there would be no coffee or
sugar in many of the farmers homes"
E. II. Hall.-"We don't pillow down enough
green crops. A few years ago had field of
timothy and clover which plowed under and
raised the best crops ever had. | would ad-
wise bone for wheat, one-half dissolved. Have
used phosphate heretofore, but used dissolved
bone this Spring. Did not fertilizer for
cCrn last year. l never saw any good results
from using bone on corn"
r. II. Archer-"I was struck with the re-
marks of Mr. Hall about turning green crops
in. David Price raised corn successfully for
fifteen years by turning under rye. He puts
the same fields in corn. am in favor of SOW
ing rye just before corn cutting. 1t pays bet
ter to hire binder than to own one"
JB Wysong-"Economize in labor Those
farmers who do most of the work themselves,
get along the best l do not believe in buying
every new machine which comes along. Farm
ers are getting more careful. We must have
fertilizers Manure is the best. 1t is better
not to pillow too much ground. 1 agree with
Mr.. Rouse; sheep, hogs and chickens should be
help to swell the general receipts"
W. b. Hopkins" Labor is one of the greatest
drains upon the farm. Hire efficient hands
one half of the number will sometimes do as
good work. Buy as little fertilizer as possible.
Make your own. Feed all the cattle you can,
and make your own manure. We buy more
machines than we need"
Thomas Lockary-"E Everything ought to be
done at the proper time. Get your manure
out; get your stock fat. and get them OFF your
hands as soon as possible after they are ready.
Large farmers ought to use machinery"
J. L. McCormck-"I think wages are higher
than farm products bring. Farmers do not
save all of their manure. | am in faver of
| using approved machinery, but we must not go
| too fast"
]. Thos. Webster-"I believe in the use of all
1 the Fertilizer you can pay for. The weeds
,eug6t to- be kept down, and it would be econ
felSy TO- biTe labor to destroy weeds of all
kinds"
Ii Georg6s E. Silver-"Our duty is to consider
4 carafllty the various communities. When
corn pays better than wheat. we should raise
as little wheat as possible. The same rule
| should extend to corn. do not agree with
Mr.. MooTes on the selling Question 1t has paid
me better for the last twenty years TO sell as
soon after harvest rs possible. we can ecOnO-

you can well pay for, and take good care of it,
Rot and rust is the bane of a farm. l can feed
four times as much stock from so as / can
from dry feed.
The next meeting will be held ut the residence

What use is there in eating when food does
you no good-in fact, when it does you more
harm than good for such is the case II it is not
digested?
If you have lOathng for food there is no
use of forcing it down, for it will not be di-
gested. You must restore the digestive organs
to their natural strength and cause the food to
be digeStcd, when an appetite will come. and
with it relish for food
The tired, langud feeling will give place TO
vigor and energy; then you will put flesh
your bones and become strong. The Shaker
Digestive Cordial as made by the Mount Le-
bunon Sha kers contains food already digcsted
and is dgester of foods as well. Its action is
prompt and its effects permanent.
Doctors prescribe LaxOl because it has all
| the virtues Of Castor Oil and is palatable.
