Which is the best breed of cattle? is
q question frequently asked. The best
breed depends on what is expected of it.
If choice steers are to be raised for mar
ket, and which are TO grow rapidly, pro-
duce carcasses that will command ex-
ira prices, and at the lowest cost, use
the beef breeds. If milk and butter are
the objects the beef qualities should not
be sought. 1t is not difficult to learn
al the present day how and where to
produce the best breed of milk auu but

animals of the breed. If beginning is

THE SAN JOSE SCALE.
It Can Easily lie Rendered Harmless,
Saws This Writer.

Says This Writer.
Practical, personal experience with
The San Jose scale will be of interest.
The following is from Mac. j. Grow, for
years associated in the management
of leading California nursery and or
chard at Napa, Cal, who has recently
taken up his residence in Pike county,
Mo. Mr.. Grow writes:
THE San Jose scale is evidently
thoroughly established in numerous
localities east of the Rocky mountains.
Orchardists should accept the fact and
turn their attention to prevention or
cure, as the case may be, in their in
dividual orchards.
''Some are making a mountain ont
of IA molehill and seem to overlook en-
tirely the fact that this scale prob
ably was solved in California some six
or eight years ago, and is to-day re-
quiriIg much less attention than some
fungous diseases which are SO numer-
GUS throughout the eastern and mid
die states. 1t is far easier to combat
the San Jose scale than the codling-
moth. scab, blight or borers; the for
ihSi >aii NC hIPb III ShSSh
with less work and expense than any
one of the latter. This is an indis-
putable fact-a fact thoroughly demon
strated in the California orchards.
1t is unnecessary to dig up and burn
a badly infested tree" as the wise
ones often say. Three thorough
sprayings with lime. sulphur and salt,
or the resin washes, properly APP
piled at the right times, will clean
any tree, no matter how many scales
are on it; then one spraying a year
is sufficient. OF course. if the scales
have been on so long as to almost kill
the tree, then new one had better
be planted.
"It sounds rather ridiculous to hear
such an uproar about an insect that,
as said before, is less dangerous or
troublesome than many of the insects
which orchardists are fighting and
saying nothing about. The numbers
of curculio. codling moth and several
others, can only be diminished. in a
degree, and the damage resulting
from their depredations in proportion.
but the scale can easily be rendered
perfectly harmless."-W. P. Stark,
Secretary of Stark Bros Nursieries.

The fuckers, of Versailles, Ind, like all

She is fifteen, and from a strong, healthy
girl, three years ago, had become weak and
kept falling off in flesh until she became a
mere skeleton. She seemed to have no life
at ALL Her blood became impure and finally
she became the victim of nervous prostra-
ton. Doctors did not help her. Most of the
time she was confined to bed, was very nerv-
ous and irritable, and seemed on the verge
of st. Vitus' dance. ,
doctor told us to give her Dr. Williams Pink

with these pills and they were curing the pa
tient. We began giving the pills and the

FEEDING FOR WOOL.
Lack of Cnre Is Almost Certain to In
jure the Fiber.

jure the Fiber.
For best results everything that lives
and grows does better to have generous
and continuous good treatment from
the start to finish. The sheep is no ex
iception to this rule. 1t is as sensitive
to bad treatment US the dairy COW. II
i'll the latter case the COW is allowed to
fail in milk no amount of generous
treatment will fully restore the milk
to its former flow. The wool of the
sheep is said to be as equally sensitiv.
to bad treatment. If during the growth
of the wool the sheep is subjected tt
hard conditions there will be weak
place in the fiber of tie wool during
this period.
Flockmasters should see that the
sheep should be under generous treat
,nent the entire season. No amount OF
winter care will fully compensate fol
allowing the sheep to run down in the
fall. The weak place in the fiber can.
not be eliminated. The manufacturer
cannot make as good cloth from WOO
that breaks, and will not pay as much
for it as good, strong wool. In feeding
for flesh we feed for wool also, for the
latter can be reached only through the
former. Remember all the time that
the evenncss of fiber has more to dc
with the price of wool than it's fineness
This is the reason that range wool il
usually lower in price than wool pro
Iduccd on the farm. TIE season affects
the range sheep more than the farm
if1ocks. This is equally true with al
forms of live stock-Rural World.

GREAT TIDE OF PROSPERITY.
Canadian Loan Companies Getting
Money on Mortgages That Had
Been Written Of.

Probably in the history of the continent
there never was such a tide of prosperity
enjoyed by any country as the DOMINION OF
Canada is being favored with. That portion
of Canada known as Western Canada is at
tracing thousands of people who are seeking
homes on the arabic lands of that new
but rapidly developing country. Possessed
of exceptionally good rail lroad privileges
the best school system in the world, church
es in every small settlement, while in the
towns and cities all denominations are rep
resented, and with markets in close proX-
unity to the grain fields, most of the re-
quirements for comfortable existence are
met. The development that is now taking
place in the mining districts gives an i'm
pulse to agriculture and good prices, with
good crops, being about state of affairs that
the crowded districts of more popu'ous
centers are taking advantage of. The Asso.
ciated Press dispatches few days since had
the following telegram:
Toronto, Feb. 4.-(SpeciaD-Loan com
panies that made advances on Manitoba
property years ago report that the returns
from the west during the past three months
have exceeded expectations. One company
has taken from Manitoba over $4,000 inter
est, and discharged mortgages many of which
had been written off year ago. Directors
of the leading loan companies are taking a
greater interest in the business of their in
stitutions, and are inquiring into many
made.
The climate in the Western provinces of
Manitoba, Alberta, Assiniboa and Saskat-
chewan is excellent there being no healthier
anywhere. The Canadian government is
now offering special inducements for the en-
couragement of settlers, and they have
their agents at work throughout the United
States for the purpose of giving information
and distributing literature. Among those
going to Canada are many ex.Canadians,
who have failed to make as good living as
they expected in the United States.
