DANGER IN SODA.

Excessive Use.

Serious Results Some times Follow Its
Excessive Use.
Common soda is all right in its placs
and indispensable in the kitchen and
for cooking and washing purposes, but
it was never intended for a medicine.
and people who use it as such will some
day regret it.
We refer to the common use of soda
to relieve heartburn or sour stomach, a.
habit which thousands of people prac-
tice almost daily, and one which is
fraught with danger. Moreover, the
soda only gives temporary relief. and
in the end the stomach trouble gets
worse and worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical irri-
tant to the walls of the stomach and
bowels, and cases are on record where
it accumulated in the intestines, caus-
ing death by inflammation or periton-
tits.
DIR. Harlandson recommends as the
safest and surest cure for sour stomach
(acid dyspepsia an excellent prepara-
ton sold by druggists under the name
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. These
tablets are large 20-grain lozenges,
very pleasant to taste and contain the
natural acids, peptoneS and digestive
elements essential to good digestion,
the food perfectly and promptly before
it has time to ferment, sour and poison
the blood and nervous system.
DR.. Wuerth states that he invariably
uses StuartS Dyspepsia Tablets in all
cases of stomach arrangements, and
finds them a certain cure not only FOR
sour stomach. but ly promptly digest
ing the food they create a healthy ap-
petite, increase flesh and strengthen
the action of the heart and liver. They
are not a cathartic. but intended only
for stomach diseases and weakness, and
will be found reliable in any stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach. .
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets al 80 cents per package.

No hard and fast rule can be laid
down rs to the proper time for cutting
grass for hay; but it may be safely
asserted that grass is nearly always
cut at period when it has lost mnch
Of its succulent and nourishing quail
tiles. That is, it is common failing
with farmers to let their grass get too
ripe. The reason for this in most
cases is that the heavy pressure of farm
work at this season makes it an easy
matter for the farmer to be deluded
into the belief that few more DAYS of
postponement will not make much
difference. Another reason is that the
grass in some fields does not mature
evenly, and while there may be patches
OF young green grass, other parts will
be turning yellow. Should the whole
field be sacrificed for these few patches
OF green?
Now it is a demonstrated fact that
stock and cattle fatten much more
quickly on grass or hay that is cut
just prior to the stage of complete
maturity. 1t is the young grass of
early spring that makes stock look
sleek and fat. and which adds strength
and milk to the cows. After "haying
time" the stock put to grass rarely
make any great gain. A COW in the
August pasture is not worth nearly as
much as COW in June pasture.

grass is when it reaches it's fullest
growth, but before the animals fail to
relish it. Usually this means that the
grass must be cut before it has
headed. To many this may seem like

Improving I'a stures.

IL there is any one part of the Iarm
that is neglected in the summer time
when the rush of harvesting takes up
most Of the time and attention Of all,
it is the pasture fields. While there
may be some little excuse for this on
large grain farms, it can hardly be
overlooked on dairy farm, where
grass and green pasture are the chief
dependencies for success. The i'm
provement of pasture fields is crying
need ON many old places. As rule
the toughest and most sterile fields
are given over to pastures. aud it is
not giving II COW u fair show to make
her pick up a living on land thai
would not produce anything else
This il often the case. however, and
then we blame the COW for not giving
more milk. Half the fault against our
dairy cows can be traced to improper
feeding. Because COW has a large
field or meadow to Craze in it does not
follow that she ought to give n large
flow Of milk. A much smaller piece
of land would produce much better
results il the pasture was rich and
well cared for.
II is all right to give cows for pas.

the farm, for naturally one does not
select that portion for plowing under
other crops. But it is the part of wis

fields every season will surprise the

that Of clearing the land of wild berry

roots once taken up will kill the
bushes and trees for good and so with
the weeds. See that they are rooted

weeds prevent grass plants from grow

sites and rusts of grain which may
spread to the cultivated fields any
day and do great amount of damage.
This work Of clearing the pastures o'
foreign growths is very important a'
this season of the year, when weeds
are about ready to produce their
seeds. One plant destroyed root and
branch now may prevent the growth

begin at once, for every year that the
work is postponed the pasture field
degenerates so much more.
While engaged in this work of de

When drawing in grain after the
barns are all filled ii is often a great
convenience to build stack of grain
in the field and leave it there until
threshing time. 1t will make some
extra labor in threshing. but at this
time labor is not 80 valuable as il il
at harvesting time. In fact, stacking
in the field may he the only means of
securing the crop Of fields distant from

or hay brought from the barn to feed
them there. This will save drawing

warm by cutting holes through the
stack as il it were kept in the barn.
IN fact, the stack-fed animals are
likely to go through the winter with
more gain at less expense than any
other.
