.WADSWORTH
Has No Use For the Bonus Seekers
Proposition Rejected.

A Columbus shoe firm is trying a
hand in securing bonus from some
Northern Ohio town, and has tried
to work Ashland, where some encour-
agement was given their scheme, says
the wadsworth Banner. Letters from
these people were sent to citizens of
wadsworth, but as the people here
have had little experience with sub
sldized factories no attention was given
them. 1t will be long time until
the people of Wadsworth will turn up
bonus to secure a doubtful manu-.
featuring plant.

''It's funny how easily the buying
public can be convinced of the useful
ness and even necessity of every new
invention and article in the rubber
market" said a salesman for one of
the local rubber making concerns, re-
Gently. "All that is necessary is to get
an article in marketable shape adver-
tise its manifold uses and convenien-
ces in a judicious manner and the pub
lie does the rest"
Fads and luxuries soon grow to be
considered necessities. People have
lots of money these days and spend
1t freely. The rubber maker and seller
is one of the fellows who benefits
nightly by this circumstance, and
sone of Akron's largest industries
thrives in proportion. 1t has been sev.
eral years since it was said that close
competition had taken the profit com,
pletely out of the business, but i'm.
proved methods and the eagerness of
the great American public to be up to
date, has made the assertion false"

party of campers, among them a
couple of Goodrich Co. employees, spent
a part of July near Turkeyfoot lake.
The second day out they discovered II
flock of turkeys which came every
morning to wheat field quarter of
a mile away to feed on kernels which
had fallen from the heads of ripened
harvested wheat, grasshoppers, etc.
''Those turkeys aren't getting fat fast
enough. They aren't growing fast
enough" said one. Of, the. Goodrich
men and every day after he made this
discovery he carried all the crumbs
and broken food which would other
wise have been thrown out near the
camp, to the wheat field for the tur-
keys. Il expect one of those gobblers

explained. And now he is trying to
figure out how he will be able to iden-
tify the particular fowl which throve
and grew under his daily care.

VERDICT MEANT DEATH.

Aldrich, Mo-, May 27.-Four of the best doctors in the vicinity have been in attendance on Mrs. Mollie Moore, of this place, who has been suffering with a very severe case of Nervousness and Kidney Disease. Each of them told her that she would die.
 Hearing of Dodd's Kidney Pills, she began to use them, and instantly no. ticed change for the better. Her i'm. proveE.ent has been continuous since then. She says that the disease first manifested itself by the appearance of dark spots floating before her eyes. Her nerves were so bad that many times they would collapse completely, and she would fall down as if shot.
 The fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills saved her after four doctors had given her up, has caused no end of talk in this neighborhood, and all are loud in their praises of this new remedy-Dodd's Kidney Pills-which is curing so many hitherto incurable cases, in this state and elsewhere.

Bones and Bone Cutters.

Bone for poultry is usually pun chased from local butchers, the price depending upon the locality; some times it is given away. Bones may be kept long time by subjecting them to sulphur fumes for half an hour in a suitable box having d lid. An old trunk serves we'll. Put the bones in, light sulphur candle or a tablespoonful of sulphur, and close the lid. A bone cutter is almost in- to success, as bones greatly assist in making hens lay. It is not known which is the best cut ter, as each has claims in it's favor; but that bone cutter will soon re- pay it's cost is conceded by all poul- trymen who are enterprising.-F and Preside.

KEEPING UP THE FARM.
Unless the Soil Is Enriched Systemat. icaIly, Failure of Crops Is AI-
 most Always the Result.

Keeping up the farm, the most inn portant part of farming, seems to be what most farmers overlook. They seem to think that a farm ought to raise crop after crop without ever wearing out. Such is not the case. The farm must be kept up if we ex- pect to make a success of farming The common practice in this country is to take everything off the ground; never putting anything back to pre- serve it's fertility.
 A great many think that if they let a field grow up to weeds for year and then burn the weeds off that such treatment is sufficient to keep the ground in good condition. Some SOW clover and then pasture it off into the ground. This leaves the soil in no better condition than if they had not sowed clover. On. land thus treated some farmers will sow wheat or corn. They don't get crop. Then comes the old cry, mo use to SOW wheat, for we broke up clover sod and got nothing" The trouble is they did not blow under any clover at all, when they should have plowed under the clover when it was in full bloom. If the land was thus managed good crops would be raised and the soil enriched.
 Another mistake that some farmers make is in not cutting up all the COTS raised on the farm for fodder and feeding it with all the straw on the place. A small feed yard should be made for this purpose and the straw stacked in the feed yard at threshing time. During the winter feed the fod- der around the strawstack, and once every month throw barrel of lime around the feeding place. This will furnish manure enough to cover sev- eral acres of ground, which should be hauled out before threshing time, and the yard made ready for the new crop Manure should always be plowed un- der for best results. If the farm were managed in this way it's fertility would be preserved and good crops of all kinds of grain could be raised.-C. E. Kearney, in Rural World.

USES OF THE SILo.
It Helps to Make the Farm Riches Allows You to Work It Harder
 and Saves Feed Hills.

Yes, build a silo. You are in farming as a business. Why not act according ly? It will fit into the whole operation of your farming, and if you make dairying speciality it will, without a hint of doubt, fit into your COW keeping.
 It does not matter what fellows who never had silos say. Nor does the experience of the man who had bad silo and consequently bad silage count against the good silo and the good silage. Those fellows don't know. Better take evidence from competent witness. Go ask some one who does know and who can reinforce his knowledge with increased live stock, better kept and more profit able-the man who has proven the pud- ding by having eaten of it. There has been no plant discovered from which we American farmers can produce as much good food for our cows as from our corn, and up to this time no way has been found by which so much of the feeding value and the palatability can be saved as in a good silo. There is no other feed that I have found more relished by my cows than silage. A great deal of the starch that goes in with the corn comes out sugar in the silage, and when it has gone into the mouth of a good COW it comes out milk in the bucket.
 In corn we produce food value more sheaply than in any other growth and ln the silo we preserve it more cheaply than by any other method.
 The silo is not omnipotent; it does not hold the balance of power between success and failure for the careless, lazy farmer. But it is like good wife, it can assist nightly. It is like reli- zion, one must have it to know what a good thing it is and only the good kind is worth having. Not only are the corns and the clovers and the beans put into the silo. but the sweet green ness and the odors of summer as well, and the winter dairy tastes the corn fields from the silo. Yes, built silo. It helps the dairy, and the young stock. It helps you make your farm richer and allows you to work it harder. It saves you feed bill and fertilizer bills. It eases up prosperity httle.-W. F. McSparran, in Ohio Farmer.

Horses Thrive on Daintie..

Succulent food should be providedoin sufficient quantities to give the horse a ration at least once week. Car. rots are a fayorite food for horses, as they tone the digestion and im- prove the appearance of coat. Horses will soon learn to eat potatoes, sugar beets, cabbage and rutabagas. If roots cannot be obtained, ensilage will be found good substitute, especially if made from clover, or soy bears, 10 ba lance the winter rations. If roots or ensilage cannot be obtained, tbfn a good bran mash should be subxd, tsted once a week.-Rural World.
