MOST PERFECT FOOD.
Milk Contains All the Ingredients
Necessary for the Well Being of
the Human Organism.

Milk is the most perfect food known,
and the only substance provided by
nature that contains all the necessary
ingredients for supplying the various
constituents required in the human or
ganism. No other single article of
food approaches it in this respect, and
upon no other substance can life be
sustained for SO long period as upon
milk. The first demand of the infant
is for milk, but the child is too often
brought to a realization Of the deceit
fulness of human nature by being COM
PEELED to accept as a substitute a wa
tered combina ton which gorges the
stomach, but affords little nourish-
ment.
Milk, to the infant, is in every re-
spect the staff of life. In old age there
is no other article of food upon which
so much reliance can be placed to sus-
tain the diminishing strength of the
vital forces. Bread has long been re-
garded as the staff of life, but it falls
far short in fulfilling the reqJ trements
OF human economy, when compared
with milk, though it supplies many of
the demands of nutrition in a pleasant
and palatable form
The use of milk is coincident with
the earliest history of man, and for
centuries was one of the principal
articles of food. When the children of
Israel were let out of bondage in Egypt
to Canaan, "a land flowing with milk
and honey" only milk was promised;
bread was not on the bill Of fare. The
use of milk as a food is universal: it
is demanded by people all over the
civilized world, therefore its care and
protection against impurities and
adulterants, by which it is accident
ally or Intentionally contaminated, re-
quires stringent regula tions on the
part of the authorities.-N. Y. Weekly.

HOW TO PLANT A GARDEN.

small truck, and cultivating with a
horse. [ have a cultivator and Il
wheel hoe. The work of the garden is
horse work almost entirely. Early in
spring the ground is plowed deeply and
narrowed until in the best of order.
1t is furrowed out by horse and the
only hand labor required is occasion
ally with the wheel hoe, although this
is not necessary where weeds are not
bad. I leave a space of sod at each
end to turn on. An hour or so every
week is sufficient for the cultivating,
which should be shallow and level
[ am SO pleased with this change
that [ give the particulars of it here,
thinking it may be of help TO some
one else. [ present herewith dia-
gram showing the plan of my gar
den as it was last summer. 1t can be
modified to suit individual needs, only
it is best to put the perennial plants,
grapevines, ETC., by themselves, so
that the balance can be plowed in
one piece early in the spring.-G. Da-

Dairy Product Inspection.

Secretary Wilson will soon make
rules in regard to the inspection Of
butter intended for export, which are
calculated to build up foreign mar
ket for American butter, especially III
the east. Some years ago China and
other countries afforded a good mar
ket for American butter, but as con-
gress provided no rules for the in
spection of this commodity merchants
began substituting poor class Of
goods and destroyed the market. At
the last session of congress 1egisla ton
was enacted which empowered the
secretary Of agriculture to cause the
inspection Of dairy products intended
for export, end to furnish a certificate
IS to the character of the goods. Rules
and regulations will be framed and en-
forced whereby frst-class products
will be properly identified abroad.

Grape for Long keepiur

Ihe Nergennes grape, one of the
best long keeping varieties, is also
superior in size, quality, beauty and
yigor of vine. It is one of the va
rietses of best quality, always ripens
perfectly in central Ontario and is
eatable before it is quite ripe or fully
colored. 1t is an extremely valuable
grape for long keeping and can be
kept in an open basket until mid
winter in a cool, dry room. I have
kept them in perfect condition
packed in sawdust until Easter, for
many years. Color red, berry and

A WOMAN'S HEART.
Mrs. Samuel G. Dyer Tells a Harroyv-
ing Tale of Suffering.

McCarron, Mich, April Especially.
Mrs. Samuel G. Dyer, of this place,
has given the following interesting
letter for publication:
For years, [ suffered intense pain
in the region of the heart. I doctored
with the best physicians. Some of
them would relieve me for a short
time, but the pain always returned.
Ny heart was so bad that [ would have
to sit up in bed for hours to get relief.
] would lie awake almost all night [
am so years of age, and no one can I'M
derstand how much I suffered with
this Heart Trouble.
about year ago, I heard of Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and commenced to use
them. From the first my condition inn
proved. The pain in my heart gradual
~ grew less, and my general health
much better, and now [ can say posi-
lively that [ am entirely cured. I can
sleep all night, and enjoy almost per-
feet health. [ thank God for the cure
that has come to me through the use
of Dodd's Kidney Pills.
Il have thought long over the mat
ter of giving this letter for publica
ton, and am now doing SO without any
solicitation whatever, and simply be-
cause [ feel it to be my duty to express
the profound gratitude [ feel for my
recovery, and to let others who may
be suffering as [ was know how they
may find cure. / know that nothing
else but Dodd's Kidney Pills cured me,
because | have taken no other med
icine for over a year. Ifeel better now
than l have for many years, and it is
all due to the use of Dodd7s Kidney
Pills.
Mrs. Dyer's case and it's cure has at
tracted a great deal of attention, and
her letter is a splendid tribute to the
curative properties of Dodd's Kidney
Pills.

THE FLOWER GARDEN.
A List of Desirable Outdoor Plants
for People Whose Time Is Oc-
cupied by Other Work.

Those who love flowers, and find
their time so fully occupied that they
cannot bother with ANIMALS or seed OF
any kind, can have a brilliant display
all summer with perennials. First OF
these is perennial phloX; our grand
mothers used to call it "JeruSalem
pink" 1t can be purchased in all col
ors, and if the long tresses of flow
ers are kept cut they are kept in bloom
a long time. Some of the catalogues
advertise to send them by mail for
five cents apiece. They can be planted
out at any time until the first of June.
A round bed bordered with these, with
Madame Crozy, and Florence Vaughan
cannas in the center, makes one OF the
grandest displays that one would wish
to see. Care must be exercised in plant
ing out, not to set the young plants too
close, as they grow very fast, blossom
ing the first season, and begin to
crowd each other. Every year the
roots must be divided.
Next on the list will be the peren-
NAL larkspur. The old-fashioned
name was bee larkspur or monksh God.
These, too, must be given plenty OF
room, and their long tresses of 'heav-
emily blue" must be cut when faded, to
prolong their period of bloom.
For a yellow display nothing will
compare with the golden glow rud-
beckia. 1t sends out it's double yellow
blossoms for a week, and like The rest,
is perfectly hardy. For a display of
white flowers standing alone on the
lawn, few flowers give better satisfac-
ton than the hyacinthus Candicans.
They are bulbs, and as hardy as an
oak. Each bulb will send up two or
three stems two or three feet TALL and
these stems are filled with innumer-
able pure white bells, that are very
pleasing to the eyes; but they are
lacking in fragrance.
Now we will name one vine, the
japonica, or hardy moon flower. In
| ordering, be sure you call for the hardy
variety. The tuber resembles a sweet
potato. You can purchase a large
blooming tuber for 25 cents. The
blossoms of this variety are white and
very large, and stay out nearly all day.
Plant the tuber deep in good rich soil,
where it can remain. All plants named
here, except cannas, require no care
and are not troubled by insects.-Mrs.
John Gaillard, in Ohio Farmer.

MANAGING A GARDEN.
Ohio Farmer Describes a Method
Which, He Thinks, Saves Con-

There are doubtless many who, like
myself, do not find much time to de-

the work they require, and there are
many who would not have any worth
mentioning if the women folks did not
volunteer to lend a hand. Take the

thing in beds and paths between; there
