but how they are eating and growing,

breeding is to obtain large quantity
of meat, of a good quality, in as short

Quick fattening depends upon the

per ton than does the former.
Peas sown early in spring rs possible

A thoughtful farmer soon learns that
there is no money in neglect or in sut-
fering. If COW goes hungry or gets a
drubbng from the cross hired man. she
records her woes in the milk pail. If
the horse has sore teeth or nail in his
foot or is fed poor hay, his endurance,
condition and constitution show the ef-
fects. Even sitting hen if badly

show her feelings by her slowness in

MARKETING WHEAT.
Iowa Alliance Advises Western Farm
ers to Hold Their Crops for an
4. Advance in Price.

The Farmers alliance Of WapellO
county. Ia. has issued the following ad
vice to farmers of the state as to hold
ing wheat for higher prices: Within a
short time a steady advance up to the
T5-cent mark at northwestern shipping
points is certain as death; and the farm
ers have the game in their own hands
if they play with little caution. The
reason upon which we base our faith in
the better price for wheat is that when
the crop of 1898 was harvested the
worlds supply from former years was
practically exhausted. and the bread
eating world is now drawing its sup
plies from the crop Of the present year.
In other years. and for many years, the
old stocks amounted to hundreds of
millions of bushels when the crop OF
any given year was harvested, and in
reckoning en- the worlds supply the
gamblers counted the old wheat as well
as the new. This year there is no OLD
wheat on which they can reckon. The
low price of wheat during ten years
preceding 1897 was due not to surplus
in any given year, but to the accumula-
tions of preceding years. The chief
cause has now temporarily disappeared
Again. the acute distress which for
three or fouryears afflicted many farm
ers in the northwest is no longer in
sight. Farmers generally are in better
shape to protect themselves against the
vulgar wiles of bulls and bears: and
those animals are perfectly aware OF
the situation.

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 inhamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachiqn Tube. When
this tube gets inhamed you have 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 its normal con
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;

It has been proven conclusively by old
breeders that the small hog house is the
hest for the raising of pigs. A house
eight by ten feet with lot 10 itself is
better than large house where six to
ten sows with their pigs are kept. The
fences inclosing the different lots need
NOT be over 30 inches in height. just
high enough that you can easily step
