st. Jacobs Oil for Chest-COIds, BrOn-
chitis, Group and PIeurisy.

An outward application for bronchial diff
fculties is many times far more effective
than syrups, cough mixtures, cod liver oil !,
&C., simply because it penetrates through
to the direct cause, which is, as rule, an
accumulation of matter or growth tightly
adhering to the bronchial tubes.
st. Jacobs Oil, possessing as it does those
wonderful penetrating powers, enables it
to loosen these adhesions and to induce free
expectoration. Cases have been known
where expectoratons have been examined
after St. Jacobs Oil has been applied, and
the exact formation was clearly shown,
where the adhesions had been removed or
pulled off the bronchial tubes. All irrita-
ton of the delicate mucous membrane of
the bronchae is quickly removed by the
healing and soothing properties of st. ia
cobs Oil. In cases of Group and whoop-
ing cough in children st. Jacobs Oil will be
found superior to any other remedy.
st. Jacobs Oil is for sale throughout the
world. 1t is clean to use-not at all greasy
or oily, as its name might imply. For rheu-
matism, gout, scatica, neuralgia, cramp,
pleurisy, lumbago, sore throat, bronchitis,
soreness, stiffness, bruises, toothache, head
ache, backache, feetache, pains in the chest,
pains in the back, pains in the shoulders,
pains in the limbs and all bodily aches and
pains it has no equal. 1t acts like magic.
Safe, sure, and never failing.

ECONOMY IN FEEDING.
VIII Check Loss of Corn Fed
to the Hogs.

Large quantities of corn annually
are wasted on many farms in the corn
belt where hogs are fed, because they
are fed on the ground instead of on
low platform.
Economy in the matter of feed is of
great importance in any kind of feed
ing, and it will be particularly advis-
able this year in feeding corn to hogs
to so dispense it as to prevent un-
necessary loss.
Much of the corn given hogs is
trampled into the ground, and thus es-
capes. Wherever they are fed consid
erable roofing will be done, and when
rains come places are formed into
which hundreds of kernels find their
way. Every farmer knows this well
enough.
We have suggested low platform as
a means of checking the loss indicated.
1t should be made of coarse oak lum-
Der and be large enough to accommo-
late the number of hogs fed up to
large herd. 1t would not, of course, be
practicable to construct a platform
large enough for very large numbers of
swine.
The platform should have a sort of
rim on two or three sides to prevent
the hogs from rolling or roofing the
corn off, and the floor should be about
three or four inches from the ground.
Hogs fed on this Platform will get
every grain of corn given them, and it
will more than pay for itself in short
time.-Farmers' Voice.

Bees must be kept where the in
terror of the hive will not become too
warm or cold, hence the advantage of
wintering bees in the cellar, as the
temperature can be kept uniform.
There are some disadvantages in the
cellar, however, such rs mice and
moisture. If kept too warm the bees
will consume more than the usual
amount of honey. Some beekeepers
put the hives under shed, so as to
protect them from the rays of the sun
as well as from cold winds. If the
hives are made warm by the heat of the
sun the bees will sometimes be induced
to fly out, when many will perish from
cold.

Boiled Celery.

Take the white stalks of celery,
wash. trim and cut into six-inch
lengths and with a sharp knife shred
one end of each piece to the depth of
one and one-half inches and then tie
the stalks into small bundles. Cover
well with boiling water; add a piece
of mace, slice of onion, a few pepper
corns and a little salt and boil until
tender. Drain from the water and
place in a heated covered dish and
serve with a white sauce, adding the
beaten yolk of an egg and a little lem
on juice. Remove the strings from the
celery before adding the sauce.

CONVENIENT POULTRY HOUSE.

plain, one-foot-square boxes, six
inches deep, and scattered about the
floor, but not under the roosts. The
door has fixed step a foot high,
and hence does not open on the level
of the outdoor step. The floor should
consist of earth raised six inches
above the level of the surface outside
by means of broken stone which, en-
closed as they are by the foundation
wall foot high, will tend to keep it
practically dry, provided there is good
drainage underneath and the location
itself is not too wet. There may be
a good yard in front fenced with
wire netting, but this is not strictly
necessary albeit very convenient at
times.
The dimensions of the building may
be varied, of course, to accommodate
the number of hens kept, one 1sxS
feet being sufficient for 80 fowls. The
windows in all cases should be made
to open by lowering the upper half,
as is shown in the picture, and who'll
ly protected on the inside by wore
gauze. Ventilatio is thus secured in
a simple manner, and in summer the
sashes can be removed, leaving only
the ire gauze.
The roosts should be made in a
frame hinged to the back of the
house, and rest at the front on posts;
they can then be raised for the pur-
pose of cleaning out from under
them. The front of this house should
always face to the south-Fred o.

Winter Care of Poultry

No one who does not take an inter
est in poultry can expect many eggs in
cold weather or when the ground is
covered with snow. My experience is
keeping the roosting place clean, good
shelter and a varied diet. To promote
laying, feed alternately wheat, buck
wheat, oats, scalded bran sometimes
seasoned with pepper and occasionally
a little corn. Onions chopped fine and
mixed with their food will promote
health, also scraps from the table; and
thick, sour milk placed where they
can get it is also relished. Where milk
is not at hand keep clean water within
their reach. Crushed oyster shell and
gravel and dust bath are necessary,
With this treatment hens will pay well
in winter.-Mrs. L. Bates, in Epitom-
list.

growers of Louisiana and Texas

exploiting the value and uses Of
rice at the Pan-American Exposition
in Buffalo, while the Southern Pa
cifc will expend $4,000 on a book
showing the Northern people how to
cook rice. The movement is the re-
suit of the boom in the rice section
and the heavy purchases of rice lands
there by Northern capital. The re-
suit is that a much larger acreage is
being put in rice than ever before.
Experts expect a crop of three mil
lion sacks next season.
