A STUBBORN COLD OR
BRONCHITIS

yields more readily to SCOTS
Emulsion of cod-liver oil than
to anything that you can take;
and if persistently used a few
days, will break up the cold.
When you awake in the
night choked up and cough
ing hard, take a dose of the
Emulsion, and you will get
immediate relief, where nc
cough medicine will give you
relief. 1t has a soothing and
healing effect upon the throat
and bronchial tubes.
Most people understand
SCOTS Emulsion is a great
body builder-but it is equally
good to allay Inflammation

Shading Enriches soil.


The complete shading of the soil
rapidly enriches it, even without the
application of manure. It may be that
shading causes deposit of nitrogen
from the air; every farmer knows that
wherever a stack of hay or straw
has stood for several months the
ground underneath is not only enriched
but grows much darker in color. Any
one may try an experiment as fellows:
Select the poorest spot Of ground on
the farm, lay over a strip of any
length, but about yard wide, few
inches of straw, and cover with a
board, or, if preferred, lay only board
on the ground. If the place is seeded
to- something after the covering is re-
moved, the difference in growth be-
tween the portion previously shaded
and that not shaded will be very
marked.

pins an inch through and stick them in
the holes in the runners and up along
the grooves. Then take two boards
six inches wide for raves, and bore inch
holes in it and put this on top Of the
pins, which are left sticking up an

to reach out on the end Of the runner,
where it should be fastened. Now put

II went toward the cab, expecting TO
find the jaguar in possession, and de-
termined to club him out with the butt
of my gun, but he was not in the cab.
I blew brakes off, and casually looked
around. On the floor of the tender,
among the wood and casks of water,
stretched out at full length and appar-
emily crouching for spring, I saw the
jaguar. I jumped from the engine.
The thought of the freman's cowardice
did not then amuse me. AS fast as pos
sible ran toward the rear of the train.
"Ten o'clock was approaching. The
ship could not receive her fruit unless
we started Immediately In my haste
I had left the rifle in the cab; now I
took crowbar which one of the brake
men handed me. But the plan from
which hoped most was his suggestion
that should climb upon the engine
from the front Of the cab and then
reach in to open the steam valve, on
the chance that the escape of the hiss
ing steam would frighten the brute to
the point of fleeing from the train.
81 opened the valve-the jaguar never
moved.
'"I then reached heavy iron wrench
and threw it at the beast with all my
strength. 1t struck him upon the head,
but he did not stir. I was startled.
Climbing to the fancied security Of the
top of the cab poked him with a long
handled rod, but could see no sign Of
life.
"After a close watch I descened to
the floor of the cab and opened the fur
mace door to have more light. The ja-
guar was dead. There was a hole
through his head caused by the lucky
shot from my Winchester. He had
walked to the tender in a daze and
died there.
II blew the whistle vigorously. 1t
was a welcome sound to the trainmen.
The brakes were speedily released.
The fireman came scrambling back;
opened the throttle and slowly the train
went up the incline toward Porto Cor

A Manure Sled.

A good and simple device for hauling
manure is to take some old sled run
plank, which will need shoes, or if they
can be bent as in A, they will not need
shoes. Next take plank three inches
thick and cut out two pieces the shape
of the ones in B, and set them on the
runners, as shown in figure G.; then cut
grooves near the ends on each side of
these pieces an inch and a half from
the end, which is shown by a dotted

An Esquimaux Arrow.

An Esquimau arrow of walrus ivory,
found imbedded in the breast Of a
healthy Canadian gray goose shot near
Spokane, is on view in store in that
city. No arrow Of that sort was ever
seen in Spokane before. The bird had
evidently carried it thousands upon
thousands Of miles from the Far North,
where it was shot by some Esquimau.

Crops For the Silo.

With good three-year rotation Of
crops for the purpose of filing the silo
and feeding the cows through the sum-
mer by careful practice, it is possible to
nearly double the number of cows to the
acre. and make them do better than by
a haphazard system of farming.
An excellent system Of rotation for
such work is to divide farm of sixty
acres into three sections, so that twen-
ty acres Of ensilage can be raised every
year, Plant the twenty acres with
corn for the silo each year, and follow
it with rotation of oats the second
year, and then with grass, sowing
about half clover and half timothy.
This can be moved for hay the first
year, and then plant it to corn, or two
crops Of hay can be taken from it, and
the corn planted later.
By having two seasons Of hay the
fertility stored up in the soil makes
excellent ground for corn, and the
crop is pretty sure to be good The
corn for the silo needs to grow rapidly.
and by the time it is ready to be cut
IL Will Uc large u Stdlk duu u6dVy OL
yield. On very rich soil a gain of stwen-
| ty per cent. in yield is obtained for the
silo. A little fertilizer to topdress the
grass each year will prove Of adyan-
| tage in making both the hay and the
corn crop better.
With a good crop of corn, hay and
oats growing on the farm. ample pro-
vision for the cows will be made. The
| pasture field may be kept separate
from the highly cultivated fields, but
it's condition should likewise be kept
| up as much as possible. Pasture fields
are saved, however, and their fertil-
ity maintained indefinitely where there
is an abundance Of ensilage, oats and
hay to feed the cows. It is when the
heavier feeds are scarce Or high-priced
that the dairyman ruins his pasture
in order to economize on grain and
| hay. We can make each acre Of land
produce sufficient food for twice the
number of cows ordinarily fed from
i them if we but adopt some system Of
intensive farming where heavy crops
| are annually raised.-C. S. Walters.
