For an Editor to Recommend Patent
Medicines?
From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard,N n. c.
1t may be a question whether the
editor of newspaper has the right
to publically recommend any of the
various proprietary medicines which
food the market, yet as preventive
of suffering we feel it duty to say a
good word for Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoae remedy. We
have known and used this remedy in
our family for twenty years and have
always found it reliable. In many
cases a dose of this remedy would save
hours of suffering while a physician
is awaited We do not believe IN de-
ponding implicitly on any medicine
for a cure, but we do not believe that
IL a bottle of Chalnberlains Diarrhoe
remedy was kept on hand andminis
tered at the inception of an attack
much suffering might be avoided and
in very many cases the presence of a
physician would not be required. At
least this has been our experience dur
ing the past twenty years. For sal z

Wien t4a Lamb Fat ?

1t is important that the practical
feeder be able to determine when
lambs are properly finished and in the
most satisfactory and profitable con-
dition for the market. This u not
always an easy task; experienced feed
ers are sometimes deceived. AS an aic
in studying this matter, the following
directions, prepared by Prof. John A.
Craig of the animal husbandry de-
partment of the Iowa Agricultural Col
lege, for the instruction OF students.
are of interest: When put into the
feed lot under proper conditions, lambs
will usually begin to show the infiu-
ence of good feeding at the end of the
third or fourth week. During this
time they seem to be simply getting
into good condition to put on flesh.
though it appears that some flesh is
being deposited internally. Toward
the end of that time many of the
lambs may be noticed standing leis-
urely in the sun in partially
stretched posture. This pose in the
lambs is a delight to the shepherd.
The fattening process seems to extend
from the internal regions, and is first
in evidence at the tail. 1t then passes
along the back over the shoulder and
reaches the neck: from this line it
seems to extend down the sides and
over the breast in front. There are
six main points at which its extension
seems most in evidence-at the tail,
middle Of the back, the neck, the
flank, the purse and the breast.

Aimless breeding of Horses.

1t is fact we'll established that
much OF the breeding by our farmers Is
aimless Horses are bred and fed to
marketable age, only to be sold at
a low price on account Of coming under
no particular class. Before starting to
breed, farmer should make study
as 10 the classifcations for horses
in the market and strive to make
his product correspond to some one
Of the classes. That is, II he means
to breed with the idea Of selling. If
he wants only farm horse the object
for breeding according to the CLASH
fication is not SO great. But most
farmers like to have horse they can
either keep or sell as best suits their
needs. Even in the production of
horses for farm work there should be
a well-defined aim. One horse is
worth very much more than another
hosre on the farm. The fast stopper
is infinitely superior to the slow plod-
der. The breeding of any kind Of a
mare to any kind of a stallion should
stop. Select both parents with care,
and consider the mutual effect Of the
one on the other.

Sheep and tho Root Crop.

Reports from England as to the last
years crop Of sheep give some indica-
ton as to the extent the English de-
pend on the root crops for the feed
ing of their sheep. The writer's on the
sheep situation of last year say that
one Of the difficulties the sheep men
had to contend with was the shortage
of the turnip crop. this shortage
amounting to not less than 2h tons
per acre. In some OF the districts 1t
was not less than tons per acre short.
What American farmer would figure
the turnip crop as one of the important
factors in the successful management
of the flock? English mutton is noted
for its fine quality, and 1t is doubtful
If better mutton is made anywhere. To
what extent is this due to the extern
sive use of turnips in feeding? 1t seems
likely that our own farmers are neg
lecting food that is especially adapt
ed to the use of sheep.

Immediate Care of Plants.

II we wish to move plant, shrub
or evergreen to some other place on
our grounds. we use the greatest care
to take up as many as possible OF the
fbrous roots, carrying with them
considerable amount Of earth to en-
sure a greater number Of rootlets be-
ing in an unbroken condition, choos-
ing If possible a time when the soil
Is moist, that earth and roots may re-
ceive az little disturbance as possible.
II we SEE our plant roots bristling with
little white feeding rootlets we have
more hope of the future results. And
yet the carnation grower desires to re-
re bis plants when all the dirt will
t;M of.
We must carefully consider the con-
lition Of our plants when received and
at time of planting. They may have
been 70 packed as to give US foliage
bright and fresh in appearance, but
with roots dry and leafless. We must

new roots can only come from those
that are alive. In the meantime we
must prevent willing OF the plant, II
we do not wish to sacrifice any of its
present growth. Sometimes the nurs-
eryman packs SO loosely that nearly
all is dry; or else he packs SO closely

shrubs are large 1t is impossible 10

Land for Soy Beans.

The land for soy beans should be
prepared about the same as for corn
A Kansas grower says that listing is
not advisable as the pods grow too
close to the ground to admit Of culti-
waiting. Some that have tried listing
have got fairly good results by filling
the bitches before planting, but the
seed should be put in newly prepared
earth, at least in the parts OF the coun-
try where the rainfall is hardly suf-
ficient for the ordinary crops. Late
planting is advocated by many grow
ers, as this gives the crop good start
of the weeds. Farmers that have corn,
Kaflr corn and sofa beans, usually
plant the Indian corn first, then the
Kafir corn and lastly the sofa beans.
The land is sufficiently warm by that
time to respond quickly. However,
the planting should be early enough to
permit the crop to receive moisture
from the rains that fall in the fore
part Of the summer, unless the grounl

Washing Wool.

Sheepmen are quite generally aban-
doning the washing of wool on the
sheep or any other way. The prices
received for washed over unwashed
wool Is now not enough TO pay for
the work and for exposing the sheep
to colds from the water. The CEN
trifugal machines that wash the wool
so quickly and thoroughly are too
keen competitors Of the shepherd
Perhaps the washed wool is really a
little more valuable, but If it Is the

horticultural Observations.


We believe that the orchard should
be kept clean. Dead wood should not
be permitted to accumulate on the
trees, and after it is cut off it should
not be permitted to lie around on the
ground. 1t should be raked up with
The dead leaves and burned, and this
should be done at least once a year.
The fence should not be permitted to
become a windrow Of rubbish and
weeds should not be permitted to grow
unhindered along it. This harbor for
insects and fungous diseases should be
abolished or never permitted to exist.
1t is about as hard to convince some
orchardists that they should spray as
it is to. convince others that they
should insure their houses against fire.
The two acts are in way similar.
The expense may be looked upon in
either case as insurance. The man
that sprays his orchard may never see
that he has escaped disaster. He may
never appreciate the good he receives
from spraying. His enemies are so
small that he does not see them ap-
proach and perish with the poison that
Aas been placed in their way. But
whether he sees the results or does
not see them, they are there.
The writer this week went past an
old orchard that had long ago seen
its usefulness. 1t is in the midst OF
IA plowed field and bears evidence OF
being cared for to some extent But
it should be cut down and used for
tirewood, as it has passed the period
of profitable bearing. No pruning can
recover it. Most Of the tops are gone
and those that remain are filled with
dead wood and multitudes of twigs.
Yet the old man that is still holding
onto 1t remembers the day of his youth
and of its youth, and still hopes. II an
orchard is to be there at all 1t should
be new orchard Without doubt
there are many such cases OF de-
parted glory on the farms of Illinois.
The fruit growers Of the north seem
to have an advantage over the south
ern fruit growers at the present time.
1t used to be thought that the men
that went to Georgia and Florida had
taken to lands Of eternal sunshine and
to the growing Of fruit where condi-
tions were so favorable that failure
could not result. But during the last
few years the fruit plantations IN
Florida have suffered repeated disas-
ters. The orange groves have been
cut down by cold again and again. In
Georgia the immense orchards of peach
trees that promised to swamp the
northern markets have been killed
back to such an extent that 1t will be
some years before they regain their
normal conditions. In the north 1ruit
growing has not suffered so extensive
ly as in the south.

Cases Of poisoning in adults arise
from excessive use as stimulant or
as a medicine. Children are sometimes
tempted to eat the fruit If they are
permitted to play where the weed is
found. Children are poisoned by eat
ing the seed and by playing with the
flower in the mouth. One or two in
stances are recorded in which cattle
have been poisoned by eating the
leaves in the hay.
Jimson weeds should be removed
from vacant lots by moving the plants
while in flower or by cultivating the

Reply to Sam Jones.

To the Editor or the Virginian- Pilot:
In your issue of the 21st inst. there
was long article from Sam Jones,
in which the medical profession was call
umniated, and lauding what is called
osteopathy in particular The article
abounded in ignorant assertions, the
writer indulglng freely in his preju-
dices instead OF facts 1t is not worth
our while to combat his assaults on
doctors. The man or woman who has
had the care and attention of a we'll
educated and efficient physician knows
his worth and appreciates his services.
He needs no defense.
No isms or pathes ara now taught
in reputable medical schools. Medicine
has been within the last fifteen or
twenty years reconstructed, fancies and
theories giving place to scientific inves-
LEGATIONS, the facts of which are the
basis OF modern treatment. But as TO
1T would have been well had he referred
to recent trial before q Kentucky
court. In which the whole subject was
ventilated. the Kirkvile, Mo, school of
osteopathy investigated and it's pre-
lenses and fraudulent characteristics
laid bare to the public. OF it's fifteen
so-called professors only three had re-
ceivcd medical education, and it's
graduates and practitioners, as far as
the State OF Kentucky is concerned,
were denied the right TO further mis-
lead the public. It's only virtue was

Editor Virgininn-Pilot:
AS you are posted OH most legal sub
jects, will you kindly answer through
the Nrginian- Pilot, the following qucs-
tons:
list When Il bank fails and trustee
takes charge of It's affairs. how long is
he allowed by the laws of the State to
wind up the defunct concern?
I'd. What fee does the trustee receive
for his services?
3D.. Does he draw pay from the assets
of the bank from the time 1t fails until
he closes up its affairs?
4th. Can IL solvent bank give Il clear
titlo to real estate?
1t appears 10 me, Mr.. Editor, that
this matter OF bank failures in Nir-
ginia is conducted in Il sadly loose
manner as regards the interest of de-
positors. Now, take the case for in
stance OF the failure OF Balm Bros,
some twelve or fourteen years ago in
this city, and still unsettled. In the
first clace three trustees were an
pointed and had a slice OF the assets,
while the Exchange National, OF Nor
folk. falling at the same TING, had hut
one. Hero is an injustice to the de-
posltors 10 start with. Then there is
the sale OF the Swimming Point prop
erty, recently sold for $4,000, for which,
1t is said, the trustees refused 500 900
less :han two years after the failuc--
n loss OF $4,000 to the dcpositors.
Why should there be an unlimited
time allowed the trustees to settle up?
Is IL TO their interest to take as long
