HELPFUL FARM NOTES.

Always use a good thermometer
when churning.
One serious objection to selling hay
from the farm is that it carries away
too much of the fertility of the farm.
To make the most out of it, plan to
save all of the liquid manure as well
as the solid by using plenty of bed
ding.
Agricultural papers help TO build the
farmer up by being alive to his inter
ests. and every farmer can find profit in
reading them
While theoretically budded trees are
the best, yet, practically, there are
just as good trees growing by root
grating as by budding.
1t is only when good care has been
taken to maintain the fertility of the
farm that il can in any way be con-
sidered advisable to plant young trees
where very old one has died.
The soil for the orchard should be
dry, firm, mellow and fertile. Gene--
ally a soil that will produce a good
crop of corn or wheat will grow good
trees and fruit. 1t should be worked
into good condition before planting

EGGS FOR MATCHING.
Set Rid of All Males Now and Procure
New Blood" for Next Spring
and Summer.

While it is proper to keep the breeds
separate during those periods of the
year when the eggs are to be used for
Matching, it is saving of time. labor
and fencing to let them cut on the
fields together until spring comes. II
is the impression on the part of some
that when birds of different breeds are
allowed together the purity of the
flock will be impaired: but if the breeds
are separated a month before the eggs
are used there Will be no evidence of
impurity in the chicks hatched. Where
enc has two or three breeds it is some
what difficult to keep them separate
without combining them in yards, and
as by so doing more work becomes nee
essary. il is not advisable to separate
them a day longer than the last egg
for Matching is taken. There is a safe
guard, however, should doubt be en-
tertained in regard to retaining the
purity of the breeds, and that is TO get
rid of all males now and procure new
blood" next spring. II is not necessary
TO have the males with the hens, as they
will lay as many eggs without the males
as when they are present with the
fock.-Farm and Fireside.

THE RUINS OF PALENOUE.
Interesting Scientific observations I'm
the magnificent Ruins of an An
cient City of Mexico.

Prof. Saville, connected with the
American Museum OF Natural History,
has made an interesting journey of ex-
ploration in the state of Chiapas. where
he visited the ruins of Palenque, and his
report confirms the previous reports Of
the vast extent of that ancient city and
the elaborate character Of the orna-
mentation of the houses which are now
concealed within the dense forest
growth. Before Prof. SaviIle could be
gin his Investigations it required force
of men working three days to clear out
the growth before he could get any
where near the ruins. Inside of the
ruins magnificent stucco and terra cot
ia figures are covered with incrusta-
tons. and from the walls hang hun
dreds of stalactites. Prof. Saville said
this was wonderful and is one of the
few places in the world where such
could be found. He said that the gov
eminent should do something toward
keeping the ruins in better condition

cations among the types of Indians

got complete set of their musical in
struments, garments and household
utensils, and from the latter tribe I got
their bows and arrows. They use these
weapons with remarkable skill. One
of them can send an arrow so high into
the air that it is hardly perceptible. and
when il returns it will fall almost at his
feet. They use four styles of arrows for
shooting different kinds of game. I had
good luck to see them make these ar
rows, something that they rarely do in
the presence of white men. The heads
are made of obsidian, a form of volcanic
glass. These are Clipped with remark

photographs made were sent directly

A Dyspeptic's daily diet.

Dyspepsia Is one of the most prevalent of
diseases. Thousands of people suffer from
1t in a more or less aggravated form Few
diseases are more painful to the individual
or more far reaching in their effects on
human life and happiness. What the dys-
peptic needs is not local treatment, mot
mere temporary stimulus The real need
is the toniug up of the entire system For
tifv the system and it will do its own hght-
ing. and promptly eject any intruding
disease. The success of Dr. Ayers SarSa-
parilia in curing indigestion and dyspep-
STA is due to just this quality which 1t
possesses, OF renewing the vital forces,
repairing the waste and loss of the body.
The ordinary treatment brings the food
down TO the level of the weak stomach.
DR.. Ayers Sarsaparilia puts strength into
the stomach. and brings II up 10 the level OF
the strong food fit for men II does this
by strengthening the entire system The
stomach cannot stay weak when all the
other organs are gaining strength, What
DR., Ayers Sarsa parilla will do for dyspeP-
STA is best illustrated in cases like that OF
