Brigham Young's Peaches.

In connection with the wide

irrigation of western lands which,
through the energy of the western
people and the helpful cooperation
of the United States geological
survey is doing so much to develop

Immediately began to improve it.
They laid out Salt Lake City on a
broad and comprehensive plan and
among their very first improve
ments, introduced water from the
hills for use in their houses and
gardens Four years after they
had become settled, or about the
year 1851, President Fillmore sent
party of federal officers to take
charge of the territorial govern
ment, Among them were the sec
retary and treasurer of the terri
tory, judges of the supreme court
and several Indian agents. The
wife of the secretary, among many
interesting remem brances of her
stay at Salt Lake City, mentions
the fact that the irrigating bitches
used by the Mormons ran as they
still do along the sides of the
streets like cutters, and that
through them constant streams of
clear water were flowing. These
bitches furnished the water for the
gardens about the houses and was
diverted wherever each house
holder needed to use his supply.

much pride, brought her one of

There are few field crops that tau
the fertility of the soil as corn does.
The fine roots of the plant, at the
usual distance, fill every cubic inch
with their hungry feeders, and when
the crop is removed there is heavy
draft cashed by the fertilizing ele-
ments of the soil. On most soils,
therefore, it is necessary to replenish
the stores of nitrogen, phosphoric
acid and potash, by the application of
fertilizers or by growing crops that
will supply the deficiency-or by
both. Corn should never follow corn,
without the Intervention of some nj
trogen-producing crop. Cotton should
not follow corn, unless the necessity
of the case requires it. The tenant
system that prevails more largely
every year is worse than several sue
cessive corn crops-or corn and cot
ton crops, because the tenant having
no permanent interest in the farm,
cares only for present results, even
if all the fertility of the soil is

A MIRACLE EXPLAINED.

Bryant, Mo-, May 13.-The sensa-
tional cure of Mrs. NJ. A. Goss, of this
place, has sent ripple of excitement
all over Douglas County, and Dodd's
Kidney Pills, the remedy in question,
are receiving thereby, the greatest
advertisement any medicine has ever
had in this state.
To satisfy the many inquiries
which she finds it impossible to an
swer by letter, Mrs. Goss has sent the
following statement of her case to
the st. Louis Globe-Democrat:

fered for months, with Sciatica and

ments of all kinds. Two physicians

least. I never slept more than ten
or fifteen minutes at time. was

to deliver me from such torture.

about four weeks / could sit up in

Goss, and hear her wonderful story.

marvellous cures in Missouri.

To the Editor:
The above is the emphatic man
ner in which . friend in York
ton writes to . friend near st. Paul,
Minnesota. and it is pretty nearly
right, too, when the advantages
that Western Canada offer to those
seeking homes. The Assiniboia dis
trict is one of the best. The writer
from whose letter we quote goes on to
say:
"John, If you miss this chance you
are foolish, for you can get out cheap
er when there are so many coming,
and would not tell you to come If I
thought you could not do well, and If
you don't come in the spring you will
have to go away back. for you do not
want to think that there is no one liv-
ing out here but us. saw nicer build
ings out here than ever saw before,
and if the country was no good what
would they want them for? John, II
you sold everything you have and
come out here you would be worth
more than ever you were before, and If
you can bring your team, you can get
anything you want on tick, and when
they do that with strangers they are
not afraid they can't make enough to
pay for it. / saw as nice wheat As
ever saw in my life and il they could
not grow grain what would the -four
mill be for. and It cost $4,000"
Now this was what Mr.. Thomas
Fitzpatrick, of Yorkton, Assiniboia,
Western Canada, wrote to friend.
There will be opened up this summer
new districts in Saskatchewan and
Assiniboia, at low prices, particulars
of which can be had Of any agent Of

a FAMOUS OLD aousB.

The house Of Walter Baker d Co.,
whose manufactures Of cocoa and
chocolate have become familiar in the
mouth as household words, was es-
tablished one hundred and twenty
one years ago (17so) on the Nepon-
set River in the old town Of Dofches-
ter, q suburb of Boston. From the
little wooden mill, "by the rude
bridge that arched the food" where
the enterprise was first started. there
has grown up the largest industrial
establishment Of the kind in the
world. 1t might be said that, while
other manufacturers come and 60,
Walter Baker q Co. go on forever.
What is the secret of their great
success? 1t is . very simple one.
They have won and held the conf
dence of the great and instantly in
creasing body of consumers by al
ways maintaining the highest stand
ard in the quality Of their cocoa and
chocolate preparations, and selling
them at the lowest price for which
unadulterated articles Of good quail
ity can be put upon the market. They
welcome honest competition; but they
feel justified in denouncing in the
strongest terms the fraudulent meth
DDS by which inferior preparations
are palmed of ON customers who ask
for and suppose they are getting the
genuine articles. The best grocers
refuse to handle such goods, not alone
for the reason that. in the long run,
it doesn't pay to do it, but because
their sense of fair dealing win not
permit them to aid in the sale of
goods that defraud their customers
and injure honest manufacturers.
Every package of the goods made
by the Walter Baker Company bears
the well-known trademark LA Belle

keepers are advised to examine their
purchases, and make sure that other

it is possible to do SO; it win savs
time.
TO reach the best results from feed
ing, keep each animal as regular q
feeding as possible.
Overeating and consequent founder.
ing is one of those things easier pre-
vented than cured.
For the commercial orchard . safe
rule is, few sorts and those well
known in the market.
The muddy season is hard ON
horses; make the loads to correspond
with the condition of the road.
The object to be attained in feeding
is to get the animal to digest all that
il consistent with health.
Plan the work and crops SO that the
farm can be made to produce all that
it is capable of producing.
1t is better to ease up the work Of
the horse and cure sore shoulder
than to keep going until the horse il
disabled.
If at any time an animal on the
farm shows signs of running down.
gives it better feed and care.
Sulphur and sweet oil mixed to .
thin salve is an excellent remedy for
scratches and other diseases in
horses.
The keeping of the farm imple-
ments in a good condition is an inn
portant factor in the cultivation of
all the crops.
With all kinds of stock, it should be
remembered that successful stock
raising is impossible without healthy
stock.
So far as can be done, plan to have
several pastures, SO that the stock can
be changed and need not be kept in
one pasture.
Before the spring work gets too
pressing, the harness should be thor
oughly cleaned, repaired and oiled. It
win save time and trouble later on.
While It is an item to plant corn
early, it should not be hurried SO as
to plant before the soil is prepared
and in good filth. A fine mellow seed
bed means a good deal in the cultiva-
tion of corn.
Let the grass secure good start
before turning the stock in the pas
lures. If grazed upon before they
have made a good root growth and
gathered considerable vigor, the grass
plants are slow to start up again and
their growth is feeble.
1t will add to the profit of the farm,
if in undertaking anything you un-
derstand the materials to be worked,
and the time and circumstances under
which the work must~be done, as well
as the object to be attained.
Sheep should never be kept beyond
the age of thrift and vigor. Feed and
care will bring better returns when
bestowed upon young stock, for
young stock put on more flesh for the
same quantity than the older ones
