RECORD OF The PAST.

The best guarantee of the future is
the record of the past, and over fifty
thousand people have publicly testi-
fed that Doans Kidney Pills have
cured them of numerous kidney Ills,
from common backache to dangerous
diabetes, and all the attendant annoy
ances and sufferings from urinary dis
orders. They have been cured to
stay cured. Here is one case:
Samuel j. Taylor, retired carpenter,
residing at S12 South Third St.,
Goshen, Ind, says: ION the 25th day
of August, 1897, made an affidavit
before Jacob G. Mann, notary public,
stating my experience with Doan's
Kidney Pills. had suffered for
thirty years, and was compelled at
times to walk by the aid Of crutehes,
frequently passed gravel and suffered
overwhelmingly. l took every medi-
cine on the market that heard about
and some gave me temporary relief
l began taking Doan's Kidney Pills
and the results gave to the public
in the statement above referred to. AT
this time, on the 10th day Of July
1902, l make this further statement
that during the five years which have
elapsed l have had no occasion to use
either Doan's Kidney Pills or any
other medicine for my kidneys. The
cure effected was permanent one.

Farm Economics.

There was great failure in New
York not long ago which involved mil
lions of dollars. Investigation showed
that the failure was due very largely
to the neglect of small economies, the
saving of few cents here and OF
few dollars there. The waste hau
gone on for quarter Of a century anu
had resulted in bankruptcy. How many
farms have been lost because OF the
reckless way their owners had OF DO
ing business? The best thinkers on
this subject have been for years adj
vising every farmer to keep books ana
by that means looking after the DIE
and the little things. The little In
comes and the little outgoes are al
most lost sight of, and even the DIE
things and transactions are too sell
dom properly accounted for. We 40
not wish to advise the farmer to put
his family on shorter fare than al the
present time, but we do wish to urge
that he know where his money is 60
ing to and where the money is coming

lions. We do wish him to know
whether his various farm operations
are all bringing him profit. 1t not
infrequently happens that certain
crop will be grown on the farm for
years without ever paying a profit. IL
would be economy to know fully the
truth about such crop and cease 10
grow it. To ce- ie to lose money IN
that way is one of the most necessary
farm economies. 1t might be well to
inquire ION some farms) IL the money
that is being put into that embryonic
trotting horse is not mostly wasted.
Has account been taken Of all the
little expenses incurred in his deyel'
oping? To save these expenses Tin
Cured on a "gamble') is a worthy
farm economy. 1t is economy to put
the farm tools in out of the sun and
rain and cover them with preparations
that will protect them from the damp
ness that everywhere exists. Not the
least of the economies on the farm is
the saving of time. the shortest way
to do this Is to have a place for every
thing on the farm and to see that
everything is kept where it belongs.
This u save both time and effort.

National Bureau of Forestry.

The work Of the Bureau Of Forestry
is now being carried on in 20 states.
Tie Bureau appointed 80 new student
assistants for this season, the entire
field force numbering 165 men. The
work includes, among other things,
the gathering Of the necessary data
for several working plans. study OF
O number of well-known commercial
trees, the examination of farm wood.
lots, and a study of the treeless areas
with view of devising plans for for
est extension. The Bureau of For
estry began the new fiscal year of
1eO2-1903 with an appropriation of
1921, $50. The amount for the pre-
vious year was 1854 This in.
creased appropriation shows how this
work commends itself to Congress,
and 1t makes possible a much wider
range Of work. The present seasons
work is by far the most varied and
interesting yet undertaken by the
Bureau of Forestry, and is being car.

the season it will be extended to still
other states and territories.

Fifty Dollars to Sit Down.

Carmel, Ind, Dec. 15th.-Mr. Jc-
seph L. Duffy relates an experience
that has aroused considerable inter-
est in this locality. 1t is best given
in his own words:
when | was working in the
fields" says Mr.. Duffy, 81 would be
ready to quit, but | could not get to
the house ] was SO weak. 1t was
worth fifty dollars to get to sit
down.
81 had no strength and a person
without strength is not much use.
But bless the Lord | took four
boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and they
gave me health, strength and appe-
tite.
81 might say | am cured, but will
keep on taking Dodd's Kidney Pills.
Yes, I'll get them if it takes the last
thing on the farm"
Dodd's Kidney Pills have effected
quite a number of other cures here
and it seems safe to say they are an
effective and permanent cure for all
diseases arising from the Kidneys.

Missouri Horticultural Meeting.

L. A. Goodman, secretary OF the
Missouri Horticultural Society, noti'
fies us that the forty-fifth annual meet
ing of the society will be held at
Springfield, Mo-, December to 4. In
a circular he says: The state society
has been a great factor in the wonder
full growth of the fruit industry In
Missouri. She ranks first now in ap-
pie orchards of any state In the Union.
The fruit lands of our state have
been brought more and more to the
notice of grower and dealer. We feel
proud to-day Of our position, and with
proper care and attention we should
be able to hold it. To this end the
society in all its efforts to develop the
fruit interests of the state and to bring
good fruit men into it, has never lost
sight of the need Of the best means
for educating, assisting and develop
ing all our fruit growers; instructing
them where knowledge is wanted, ad-
yising them where experience would
give the help needed, assisting, direct
ing, encouraging, whenever opportuni-
ty is offered.
This forty-fifth annual meeting will
be one of the best ever held. Some OF
the best men of the state and nation
will be there to help answer scientific,
technical and practical questions and
to give instructive papers. The fruit
growers of Greene county and south
Missouri will give us a hearty well
come. One hundred and fifty dollars
is allotted for premiums, to be given
on fruits and flowers in our usual
manner Five specimens constitute
plate. Perfection of size, color, form
and condition will be the points con-
sidered. Collections shall embrace
only one plate Of a variety for the
Judges to pass upon. New varieties
and rare ones are desired. Specimens
for name are always in order. Let us
make this a banner meeting. Monday,
December 1, the Ozark Apple Growers
Association will hold its regular meet
ing and all apple growers Of the
Ozarks are invited to be present; the
society delegates will also be welcome.
Railroad rates will apply for this day
also. A good program will be carried
out. Fruits should all be arranged on
Tuesday. All fruit will be reserved
and put up in glass jars for the

The Seeding Apple.

For. a good many years there mas
been a contest as to whether 1t was
better to hunt up new apples III loi'
eign countries and import them or oe'
velop new apple varieties from seeds.
Both methods have been tried anu
both have yielded some discouragihs
results. A few good apples have peeh
imported from foreign countries pu.
very many, after having been tried LOT
a dozen years. have been cast ASIDE as
worthless. On the other hand, OF all
seedlings that have been brought 10
stage of fruitfulness not one in a thou'
sand has proved to be of value.
However, we should not forget tha'
all the progress that has been maze ia
the development of new varietes d.
home or abroad has been by means OIL
seedlings. For every good variety we
now have, multitudes OF seedllnes
have been tried and cast aside. we
must continue this work, though IL Is
very slow as a process. 1t is a great
task to care for a thousand seeding
trees and bring them to bearing age
They must be planted at first IN seed-
ling rows and then transplanteo. lhey
must be cared for after the best metn-
DDS for years till they come into lrui'-
ing. Even after that it is sometlhes
necessary to keep them for otner
years to determine other facts ABOUT
them; for a tree will sometimes snow
increased fruitfulness as the years 20
on. Among the things that must pe
done for the trees are keeping 'he
ground fertile and the trees sprayed.
The borers must be hunted out ana
the caterpillars attacked as soon as
they appear. The discouraging thing
about the work is that after SO long
wait and much hard work the grower
may find that not one tree Is superior
to varieties already growing, and I'M
less a new variety be superior IN at
least one point to other varieties IL Is
of no use to save 1t.
The laborer can never know that he
is to reap the benefit OF MS haro
work. Even If he develops a superior
variety, other years must eiapse pe-
fore he can make anything from 1t;
and even that will depend on his pusl-
ness acumen and business energy.
However, the Seeding is the only
available road of advance. If all apple
growers would each grow few trees
it would distribute the load over many
backs and it would weigh less heavily
a few.-Farmers' Review.

Plum Trees In a Poultry Yard.

From Farmers Review: would
lot by any means have plum trees in
a poultry yard, it must be kept clear
from grass, in order to have the plum
trees do well. can not see what good
they do any way, for the shade from
them is very poor. besides. unless the
ground under the trees is we'll stirred.
after every heavy rain, the ground
will harden so they will not scratch
or keep it loose so as to act as a
mulch, consequently they will Go no
good in there on that account. OF
course, If you spade up the ground
under each tree after the heavy rains,
il would make an ideal busting place
for them. A poultry yard. by all
means, must have grass, for it is al
most impossible to raise chickens and
have them do well without 1t.
