What nobler, better ambition can young
couple have than to live loving, helpful
lives, and then in a green old age, look
back over life that has been mutually
self sacrificing, useful and successful The
one great stumbling block that stands be-
tween most married couples and this ideal
married career is ili-heaith. If both hus-
band and wife would take proper care of
their health, there would be more hale,
hearty and happy old people IN the world.
II. when man suffers from the little ills
of life, he will resort to DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, the chances are that he
will avoid the big and fatal illnesses. This
great medicine gives a man a healthy
hunger facilitates the flow of digestive
Juices, inviRorates the liver, puriies and
enriches the blood and builds arm, niuscu-
lar, healthy flesh tissue.
Ii is an old saying that women are hard
TO kill There is some truth in this, as far
as the majority of illnesses are concerned.
There is one class of disorders, however,
that quickly undermine any womans gen
erai health No woman can retain her
strength who suffers from weakness and
disease of the delicate and important or
gans that make wifehood and motherhood
possible Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
tion is an unfailing cure for all disorders
of this description. II acts directly on the
sensitive organs concerned, in a natural,
soothing way. It makes them strong,
healthy and vigorous. 1t prepares them
to bear the burdens of maternity. 1t is
the greatest of nerve tonics. The woman
who uses it will bear healthy, happy child
rem, and live to ripe old age.

and invigorate the stomach, liver and
bowels. By all medicine dealers.

A WOMAN'S CREAMERY.
what a Wisconsin, Woman Has Done
In SIX Years.


The Milwaukee Sentinel states that
Miss Kate PETER of Pewaukee, Wis, is
an example of what woman possessed
of grit and determination can do. She
is the owner and manager Of the Pc
waukee creamery. which she has made
q great success in the past six years
Though il was organized as a stock
company, she by purchase from time to
time of other interests recently became
sole owner of the property
Miss PETER is tall. dresses well, is a
fluent and earnest eonversationalist,
with CHEEKY bit of advice and help
ing hand for those who deserve it. A
daughter of the late Peter PETER. a well
known Durseryman, dairyman and
farmer. born and reared on her father $
farm Just outside the village. she early
learned to follow in his footsteps. and
gradually assumed charge of the affairs
on the old homestead During the latter
years of her father s life the farm, dairy
and nursery We're practically under her
direction
Miss PETER, always willing to learn
something new about agricultural sub
jects, spent good deal of her time in
study and research. besides attending
the meetings of the various state socie-
ties. When cooperative creamery was
suggested for Pewaukee, it found her a
ready and enthusiastic supporter, Her
ability as manager was recognized by
the stockholders, and she was elected
secretary and treasurer of the new cor
poration, which place she has filled sat-
isfactorily since the organization Of the
society six years ago. Since 1894 she
has, from time to time, bought the
shares of different stockholders and for
three or four years past has held a con-
trolling interest. About six weeks ago
she purchased the interest of the last
stakeholder.
The creamery is similar to many 9th
ers except that it shows the tidiness of
the womans art. Miss PETER under
stands the mechanism of the plant to
the minutest detail She begins the
days work sometimes as early as a.
M, and attends TO the wants Of its 50
patrons personally. Last year she han
died over 200 600 pounds of milk and
sold over 900 pounds of butter each
month.
She has taken large number of val
uable premiums for her butter exhibits
both at the county and state fairs, In
1891 Miss PETER scored 100 points in
her butter, and secured fine parlor sci
offered by the Dairymen's association.
In October, 1898. when she assumed
charge at the Pewaukee creamery, her
butter exhibit at the Worlds fair at
Chicago was awarded a diploma and
medal Since then she has taken many
premiums, and only this year her cream
cry exhibit at the state fair secured
several valuable awards.

ENslLAGE IN FATTENING.
II May He Injurious When Fed COLI
In Winter

IL May He Injurious When Fed Cold
In Winter.
Except in the small amounts that are
useful to keep the bowels loose we
doubt whether ensilage can be profit
ably fed to stock of any kind that is
being fattened, says the Boston Guilt
vator. During this process the purpose
of the feeder is to get water out of the
meat rather than to encourage its in
crease. The arguments for feeding milk
COWS ON ensiIage will not apply for fat
tening animals. Indeed, when we were
feeding beef cattle OF sheep. we always
found that during the later period,
though the animals were wholly on dry
food, they would drink very little, and
when they had few pumpkins addi-
tional they would often go through the
day without drinking at all. If, then,
snsilage were fed, though the animals
might eat it, they would thereby get
more water in their food than they re-
quired. IN such cases it always resulted
in watery stools passing off much of the
meal that the animals ate without do
ing them any good.
In winter time especially, and this is
when ensilage is usually fed, it may Of
ten be actually injurious when it is fed
cold, as it often is When we mixed
cut feed with scalding hot water, put
ting it on the cut hay or straw and
then while hot adding meal to it, the
partial cooking which the meat received
made both it and the cut hay or straw
more palatsble. Fed thus, fattening
beef cattle not only did not want but
would not drink pure water, often for
several days in succession. Possibly
they might if the water had been offered
warm as the cut feed was. Sheep re-
quire even less water than beeves. Only
the ewes that are bearing lambs, or
have lambs that are sucking. will drink
much water. 1t is necessary for them,
because it is necessary in making good
supply of milk. But the sheep that are
fattening, or are store sheep, will
scarcely take more than one or two sips
q day. All who have watered milk COWS
know how heartily they will drink.
Even those that are fed considerable en-
silage will drink a good deal, and per-
haps sometimes more than is good for
them.
Ensilage is good for breeding animals
and those that are giving milk. But in
cold weather some dry food should be
given daily, else the ensilage diet will
make an animal lose flesh. unless it is
also fed with some dry feed, both hay
and grain. Stock fed early in winter on
cornstalks do not need much water, as
the natural juices of the stalk are not
then dried out Of them, and for this
reason early in the winter is when corn
stalks should always be fed.
No doubt in all the older states the
feeding Of COWS for milk is what most
winter feeding is done, and for these
what is written in all the papers in ia
yor of ensilage is all right. But, like
every other good thing, ensilage has its
limitations, and it may not be alto
gether useless occasionally to point out
what these are

Guessing weight of stock.

AS this is butchering time" on
thousands of farms ore Of the best ways
of training the eye TO judge both of live
and dressed weights of animals is now
offered. II the farmer has some barn
scales it is easy to secure the live weight
of animals at any time. But there is
great difference in the amount of waste
in killing and dressing, even among
animals of the same breed. 1t is this
kind of knowledge that the buyer learns
by long practice, and unless farmers
want to be cheated in selling live stock
they must learn also. When boy on
the farm the writer was encouraged to
make his guess as to how much each
hog or beef would weigh both alive
and after it was dressed for marketing.
1t is knowledge that every boy on the
farm should try TO gain. Boston Gull

Mating Eve. wlth Largo ram.

Many farmers who have a flock of
grade Merino ewes only medium in size
are questioning whether it is safe to
mate such ewes with rams of the coarse
wool breed much larger than them
selves. We think it is safe provided the
ewes are young and vigorous. The fetus
will not probably be much. If any,
larger than it would from native buck
of their own size. The superiority of
the lambs will not be in their increased
size at birth. but in the rapid growth
they will make and the quick response
they will make to extra feed after the
lamb gets old enough to eat it. Boston

The American Sheep Breeder says
that for farmer flock is better than
a herd. II is more easily cared for in
proportion of seven to one. Its good
effect on the land in improving it for
crops is far greater than that due to the
feeding Of cattle, and every farmer will
find it to his interest TO keep flock, if
only for the purpose of making the
feeding Of it one item of the regular

Working Butter.

Professor Robertson says: after
butter is salted it should be left for two
or three hours to allow the salt to dis
solve. Then by a second working the
excess of moisture may be expelled, the
salt thoroughly mixed and any streaki-
ness in color corrected 1t is not neces-
sary that butter to be put in small
prints or for immediate consumption in
a local market should be worked sec
ond time. The second working makes
it drier. Care must be taken that the
butter be not overworked and made
greasy. This may result from the but
ter being worked at a temperature
either too high or too low. Where prac-
ticable it should be worked at tenn
perature which leaves it in waxy
condition, causing it to bend about one
half toward the under layer when it is
being doubled on the butter worker. A
temperature of so degrees F. will usual
ly put the butter in the best condition
for being worked. Sometimes injury
results from larger quantity being
placed on the butter worker than can
be conveniently handled "

Kerosene on Peach and Apple Trees.
The Cornell university station thus
summarizes it's study of the effects of
kerosene spray upon peach and apple
trees:
Pure kerosene is likely to seriously
injure peach trees even when they are
perfectly dormant
A 20 per cent mixture of kerosene
can probably be safely used on the
peach at any time. but stronger mix
ture cannot always be so applied.
Apple trees do not appear to be as
susceptible to the action of kerosene
as peaches. In some instances clear
kerosene did not harm them
There seems to be little, if any, dan
ger to apple trees from a mixture con-
tanning so per cent or less of kerosene.
Very conflicting results are often OBJ
tanned from the use of kerosene.
Kerosene is especially likely to cause
injury if applied on other than bright,
sunny day.
In our experience, a 20 per cent solu-
ton Zone part oil to four parts water
is harmless to plants and destructive to
insects, even to the San Jose scale.
