HALE AND HEARTY.
A VERMONT FARMER WHO FEELS YOUNG
AT EIGHTY,
Rheumatism Once Troubled Him, But Or,
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
Cured 1t

ia fine speciman of the hardy Yer
mont farmer is Joseph Chase, of
Readsboro, active and strong in body
and mind, at the beginning of his
eightieth year a few years ago an
attack of rheumatism caused the old
gentleman much suffering but DR..
williams Pink Pills cured that and
he is now enjoying unusual health
for one of four score years. When
recently interviewed he SAID
81 was not confined to my bed but l
suffered a great deal of pain. My back
and shoulders were lame and my arms
were so sore that | could not get my
coat on without assistance. Heavy
farm work and exposure in all kinds
of weather probably brought on the
rheumatism and it was so stubborn
that | couldn't seem to get rid of it
lone day l saw DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People mentioned in
a newspaper and l got some. 1 felt
better after taking one box and took
four or five boxes altogether. They
cured me and the cure was perma-
nent. | recommend DR.. Williams
Pink Pills to everyone who is not
we'll, and l know of other cases where
they have given good results -
Rheumatism is disease of the
blood and it must be treated through
the blood. External applications can
give no benefit that will last. DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
are unlike other medicines because
they act directly on the blood and
nerves. This makes them invaluable
in such diseases as locomotor ataxia,
partial paralsis, st. Vitus dance, sci
atica, neuralgia, nervous headache,
the after effects of the grip, palpita-
ton of the heart, pale and sallow COM
plexions and all forms of weakness
in either male or female. DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People are
sold by all dealers or will be sent on
receipt of price, fifty cents box or

oldest licensed village alehouse in Eng
land, the license dating from 1901 Its
appearance Is eminently picturesque,
each story overhanging that beneath,
while the front Is broken by bay win
dows, a porch and a flight of stone
steps leading to doorway in the wall.
At the back are more quaint doors and
windows, a turret built against the
wall and inclosing an outside stair,
while in the yard still remains a por-
ton Of the old gallery which In the
middle ages was found In so many
hostelries. Most of the front is tim
bered. Each gable Is surmounted by
curious chimney. A curious feature Of
the interior is the upper floor, which is
of plaster.

FARM IMPROVE
MENT

There is one kind of farm improve
ment, which will yield profit in
the management of the farm, and
which is always a good investment.to
make. Such work as cutting bushes
around the moving field and scatter
ing over the pasture, removing rocks
from the cultivated fields in order that
improved farm machinery may be
used, draining such land that is to b
devoted to crop of sufficient value
to warrant it, the adoption of an in
telligent rotation of crops, thereby
adding to the producing capacity of
the farm, trimming the old orchard
and grating such young trees as are
growing upon the farm and keeping
the farm buildings in good repair.
These and many other things of a
similar nature make better invest
ment for surplus cash than any bank
ing institution in the world, and the
cash return will come, under good
management, as surely as from any
other investment. Mirror and Farm

PlNFEATHERS.

Millet and sorghum seed are good
poultry feeds.
The Leghorn and Black Spanish
chickens lay very white eggs.
1t takes about 100 days for the hens
to mott and gather up sufficient mate
rial to lay eggs.
If the fowls are healthy at the start
and are well fed and cared for, no arti-
fetal preparations are necessary to
maintain good health.
When the fowls are closely confined
q good plan of feeding is to give soft
feed in the morning, some kind Of
green food at noon and whole grain at
night.
A very nutritious ration for growing
chickens can be made by mixing to-
gether twenty pounds of corn, fifteen
Of oats, ten of barley and ten of wheat
bran, the grain all to be ground.

WHERE PAIN MOST HURTS.
Extreme sensitfveness of the Fifth
and Dental Nerves.

Extreme Sensitfveness of the Fifth
and Dental Nerves.
Which part Of the human body is
the most sensitive to pain?
A sharp definition must be drawn
here between irritation and pain. Trri-
tation Is not pain, but only a frequent
cause of 1t. Thus, crumb lodged in
the larynx near the vocal cords pro-
azeed violent irritation and prolonged
coughing, which often results in actual
pain. So, too, a fly or speck of dust In
the eye sets Up violent irritation and
inflammation, followed by acute pain.
OF the surface of the body, the finger
tips and the end of the tongue are most
sensitive. For instance, a burn on the
fingers is much more painful than one
on the back would be, while one on the
tongue would be more painful still.
Deep wounds are not painful, as a
rule, save as regards the surface in
jury. or pains not caused by external
injuries, neuralgia Of the fifth nerve,
the one which supplies the skin of the
head and face, is the most intense. It
has frequently driven people mad for
the time being, and sufferers have been
known to cut and even burn the flesh
In desperate attempts to relieve it. The
rupture of the branches of the dental
nerve In tooth drawing also causes
agony so intense that it has been stated
that no human being could endure 1t
for more than two seconds at a time

AGRICULTURAL.
SEED POTATOES.

So far as known the fungus that
causes the common "rust' or late
blight or rot of potatoes lives over
winter only in the potato tubers. 1t
is of course possible that it may persist
in resting stage in the soil or the
blighted vines or decayed tubers, but
most persistent search has failed to
discover this. If this belief is correct
and the only place where the fungus
lives through the winter is III the
affected tubers, then the development
of the disease each succeeding year
is a direct result of the planting of
some such infected tubers. All obser-
vatlons are in harmony with this ex-
PLANTATION.
The usually early and general devel-
opment of the fungus the past sum
mer is thus explained for there was
enough rot in the autumn of 1901 to
cause the widespread infection of the
tubers from which the seed of 1902
was selected. 1t follows that the still
worse development of rot this season
is prophetic of a disastrous occurrence
of the disease in 1903, providing, soil
and weather conditions next summer
are at all favorable.
The practical question is what can
be done to lessen the danger? There
is no method known of disinfecting
such diseased seed. Surface washes
are useless for the fungus is safely
housed in the depths of the living po-
tato tissue-and any known means of
killing the fungus by chemicals will
kill the potato also.
1t has been suggested that the heat
ing the seed potato six hours or long
er in 10S degrees F.. or thereabouts
dry heat, would kill the fungus with
out injury to the potato. This has
not been fully demonstrated and
would not prove prcatical to most
farmers in case it is reliable.
The Vermont experiment station au-
thorities can recommend only two
things as practical. The first is that
unusual pains be taken this autumn
to secure and preserve for next year S
seed purposes, early planted potatoes
grown on light, well drained soil,
which escaped the blight-or else
those fields so well sprayed as to be
protected The second is that next
summer every potato grower be pre-
pared beforehand with spraying outfit
and chemicals ready for prompt APP
plication of the bordeaux mixture
when needed Even i'll so discourag-
ing a season as the last one this rem
edy has proved perfectly effective
when used promptly and thoroughly.
In the well sprayed fields at the Yer
mont station at Burlington, a consid-
cradle portion of the vines were still
green and growing on October first,
and preliminary diggings have shown
practically no rot.

OLD ORCHARDS.

OF course, the first thing to do with
an old orchard is to supplement it
with new one. But while waiting
for the new ones to come into bearing
the old may be rejuvenated until it
will produce fairly profitable crops.
We will start with this restoration by
pruning. All the life absorbing water
sprouts must be cut away, as also the
broken and dying limbs. Don't cut
too sparingly, for if a tree is not
sufficiently vigorous to withstand a
vigorous pruning it should be cut
down at once. Take your paint can
and brush with you, and after saving
off a limb paint the stump well,
which is essential to keeping out in
sects and borers.
Don't forget to furnish plant food,
nor that cultivation pays in an or
chard as well as in other fields.
