BIRTHSTONES.

1t you have not birthstone
Then You should get you one,
A diamond that gives back the light
And sparl1les in the sun
A ruby red as sweetheart's lips,
Mayhap an amethyst;
The stone that marks your natal month
Means luck for you, you wist;
Then just drop In to Leehenger's
And take look at things
AT diamond-laden sunbursts,
AT sapphires set In rings,
AT opals with their hearts Of fire,
And emeralds, as green
AS fields wherein you used to play
When you were young, | ween.
II you have got your natal stone
What have your loved ones eote
In the glad season drawing nigh
You should forget them not.

Children Born Blind

The startling charge that many
New York children are born blind in
subterianean apartments under
great office buildings in New York
because their mothers for years have
never seen the light of day is made
by Rev. DIR. David NJ. Steele, one of
the cu-ates of st. Bartholomew's
parish. DR.. Steele says: "How many
know that some of the great office
buildings have under them apart
ments Tor so families, and that in
these families children are sometimes
born blind, because their mothers for
whole years never see daylight? How
many know that on the roofs of
these buildings there are families of
janitors whose siX-year-old children
have never stepped upon the
ground?" DR.. Steele is an authority
on life on the east side and in the
tenement districts.

A NOVEL ENTERPRISE.
Canal Connection Being Dug for the
Purpose of Removing Bar
nncIes from ships.

TIE city of Seattle lies between
Puget sound and Lake Washington. A
canal is now being dug for the purpose
of connecting the two. Puget sound
Is salt and connects with the Pacific
ocean. Lake Washington is body of
fresh water. The object in the connec-
ton is novel. Familiar with the re-
gion, and having heard of the canal
and the reason for it, we have looked
the matter up little, and find that
it. is to be a barnacle cure on large
scale, reports the Christian Advocate.
1t is well known that barnacles, a
variety of marine shellfsh, attach
themselves to the bottom of vessels,
and after a time, when the number
becomes great, the movement of the
ships becomes so seriously retarded
that the vessel has to be dry docked
and cleaned. This is an expensive OPP
Grafton, and many are the devices
which have been resorted to to pre-
vent the adhesion of the barracles,
but without success. Barnacles APP
pear to be more prolific on the Pacific
coast than on the Atlantic, and, there
fore, getting rid of them becomes even
more important than in the case of
Atlantic shipping. 1t is well-known
fact that the barEacles drop off if
the ship lies for even short time in
fresh water, and the proposition to
connect Puget sound with this beauti-

THE NATURE OF COWS.
Have Their Likes and Dirlikes and
Act mt Times Very Much Like
Human Beings.

"Cows have their likes and their dis
likes" said the millmaid to the sum
mer boarder who was curious to see
every part of the farm, according to
the New York Tribune.
For instance, n cow admires n
horse, and will stand and watch one for
long time. She is sort of timid about
him, but she admires him just the
same. She has contempt for a mule,
and seems to be amused by his antics.
Hogs she tolerates, that's all. And
sheep, she hates. She will not eat
grass where sheep have been. She
hates dogs, too, but will tolerate the
shepherd dog, because she knows she
simply has to, and that the shepherd
dog will not bite her.
Cattle go wild at being let into a
fresh pasture" added the millimaid
at seems to go to their heads. Each
is afraid that the other has got n bet
ter feeding place than hers elf. and
tries to drive her neighbor away"
"Then there is good deal of human
nature in the COW, after ALL" unused
the summer boarder, who had studied
year or two at a university, and was
given to philosophical reflections.
well, l should SMILE" answered tn,
milkmaid. "a single cow, with cali
will boss a whole herd of steers" and
swinging her pail over her arm, she
went down to the milking pens.

have given me almost complete relief,
and / am sure that n continuation Of
them will effect a permanent cure. Pc
runa is surely n wonderful remedy
for catarrhal affections.-J. ID. Botllin.
This is case of catarrh of the stomach
which had run for twenty-five years,
according to his statement, and Peruna
has at once come to his relief, promptly
accomplishing for him more benefit than
he had been able tc tind in all other
remedies during quarter of a century.
1t stands to reason that a man OF
wealth and influence, like n Congress-
man of the great United States, has left
no ordinary means untried and no stone
unturned to find cure.
If such cures as these do not verify
the claim not only that dyspepsia is due
to catarrh of the stomach, but also that
Peruna will cure catarrh of the stom-
ach, it is impossible to imagine how any
evidence could do so.
If you do not derive prompt and satis-
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to DR.. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad-
vice gratis.

CAPTAIN o. BERToLETTo.

Captain o. Bertoletto of the Italian
Barque "Lincelles," in recent letter
from the chief Office of the Italian
Barque eLincelles, Pensacola, Fla. writes:
"I have suffered for several years
with chronic cafarrh of the stomach.
The doctors prescribed for me without
myreceiving the least benefit Through
one of your pamphlets began the use
of Peruna, and two bottles have en-
dreIy cured me. Recommend Peruna
to all my friends. 20. BerfoIetfo.
In catarrh of the stomach, as we'll as
catarrh of any part of the body, Peruna
is the remedy. AS has been often said
if Peruna will cure catarrh of one part,
it will cure catarrh of any other part of
the body.
Catarrh is catarrh wherever located,
and the remedy that will cure it any
where will cure it everywhere.

Durable Label. for Trees.

A good way to make label that
will last for years is to use pine
strip, painting it with white lead. Be
fore the lead is dry write the name of
the tree on the tag with a lead pencil.
The plumbago and the oil will COM
bine to form an indelible inscription
that will be good for years. Many of
the little tags that come with new
trees are so badly written that the
names are effaced in a few months, or
the iron wire rusts and the tags drop
off. Tags should be fastened to trees
with copper wire. To allow tree to
go untagged may cause all kinds of
complications in the future. The mat
ter is worth attending to at the first
opportunity, and if the opportunity
does not come of itself it should be
made.

Alfalfa in Place of Bran.

A Texas dairyman has found that
he can use alfalfa hay as a substitute
for bran with good results in feeding
mich cows. AS test he substituted,
for three weeks, an equal quantity by
weight of cut alfalfa hay, for the bran
he had been feeding. The cows gave an
increased yield of both milk and but
ter as result of the change to alfalfa.
The alfalfa was cut to half-inch
lengths. The analysis of bran and al
falfa show composition almost iden-
tical, and it is not to be wondered that
the feeding trial should show the
same results. The dairyman who has
few acres of alfalfa can be very indie
pendent of all kinds of combinations
that tend to raise the cost of feed un-
duly.-F. G. Short, In Hoard's Dairy.

STORING OF CELERY.
Two Methods, Approved by success-
full Growers, Described md IL
Illustrated In Detail.

Provision should be early made
for the storing of celery. When the
crop is about to be gathered it is
frequently too late to make suitable
provision, with the result that any
expedient is adopted at the last mo-
ment. We call attention to a num-
ber of the most popular methods of
storing.
One method that may do for q
time is that of banking. The earth
is piled quite high around the bases
Of the plants, and the tops may be
severed with straw in the fall when
Perrysburg journal. (Perrysburg, Wood Co., O. [Ohio]) 186?-1965, 1902-08-29


and in this the roots of the plants
are set. Planks or boards are
placed to support the sides of the
trench, as shown in the illustration.
Of course this trench must be so
placed that it will not fill up with
soil water. After the celery is
placed as shown it should be well
watered and the trench left uncov-
cred till the tops of the celery have
dried off. The top of the trenches
are finally covered with boards or
with poles and straw. Corn-stalks
are sometimes used for this purpose.
Straw may be piled over the top to
sufficient depth to keep out the
sold, as the season advances. In this
way, celery may be kept till late in
The winter. 1t is especially service
able to the small farmer.
We show here a cross section of a
.elery storehouse. The illustration
is from a government bulletin; the
explanation of the cut is as follows:
The width is "a feet, height of side
walls two feet; height in center of
ridge IL feet; "a" bed of sand on
earth floor; "b," division boards
through house; &C." posts support
ing roof; 3D." roof planks; "e," sod,
straw or manure for frost proofing
on roof; "f," ventilator. The dirt
floor of the house should have a COW
.ring of three inches of loose sand
Or fine earth, in which to pack the
roots of the celery.-Farmers' Re-
View
Perrysburg journal. (Perrysburg, Wood Co., O. [Ohio]) 186?-1965, 1902-08-29

light frosts are common. If the
quantity is small this may prove
very serviceable, as the dirt and
straw can be removed as the celery
is used. 1t will not do to leave it
in this condition until the ground
freezes, as the celery will then be
