A Cure for Dropsy.

Sedgwick, Ark, June 22d.-Mr. w.
S. Taylor of this place says:
MY little boy had Dropsy. Two
doclors-the best in this part of the
country-told me he would never get
better, and to have seen him anyone
else would have said they were right.
His feet and limbs were swollen so
that he could rot walk nor put on his
shoes.
"Wnen the doctors told me he would
surely die, stopped giving him their
medicine and began giving MIN
Dodd's Kidney Pills. gave him
three pills a day and at the end OF
eight days the swelling was all gone,
but as wanted to be sure, kept on
with the pills for some time, gradu-
ally reducing the quantity, till finally
/ stopped altogether.
"Dodd's Kidney Pills certainly saved
my child's life. Before using them he
was helpless invalid in his mothers
arms from morning till night. Now
he is a healthy, happy child, running
and dancing and singing. l can never
express our gratitude.
"Dodd's Kidney Pills entirely cured
our boy after everybody, doctors and
all, had given him up to die"

Scrub Eeedlna.

From Farmers Review: Men who
grow live stock at home often become
oyer-enthusiastic over pure-bred stock
after returning from visit to the
agricultural fairs or fat stock show.
They reason that the difference In size
and appearance between the ribbon
winners at the ring and their own
stock at home is due solely to good
breeding Oftentimes good blood is
sent home. The rapid change in form.
and a tendency to early maturity do
not take place. The good animal is
given scrub conditions. A scrub farm
er with scrub feeding will soon make
scrub stock out of the progeny of our
national prize winners, even though
they have a long pedigree Of royal
blood. 1t takes an improved farmer
who will improve his system of feeding
and care to handle successfully pure
bred animals on the farm. He must
know their characteristics; he must
know the relation of various foods to
animal nutrition, and then be willing
to bestow patient care and attention
upon the animals he has in charge.
Before launching into the business OF
breeding high-class animals the farm
err has much to learn; but II he will
set himself to do II he is sure to be
amply rewarded. not only In financial
way, but he will get what money can
not purchases genuine satisfaction
that he is doing creditahla wn~k.--

Value of BARNARD Manure.

Few realize the great value of barn
yard manure, in comparison with 9TH
er fertilizers. In the regions devoted
to market gardening, barnyard ma
nure is found to be a necessity, If
large quantities of commercial fer
tiliZers are to be used. In some way
it assists the elements found in the
manure, even though these elements
may be the same as in the manure
In Germany some experiments along
this line have given rather surprising
results. The greatest yields of root
crops were obtained only when barn
yard manure was used in conjunction
with the commercial fertilizers. The
eXperimenters there express the be-
lief that this Is due to the mechanical
effect on the soil of the barnyard ma
nure. Another surprising result was
the discovery that even though very
heavy application of nitrate of soda
was made, the plants took up less nj
trogen than when barnyard manure
was used in conjunction with it, and
dressing Of barnyard manure alone
gave heavier crops of potatoes and
turnips than when nitrogen, phos-
phoric acid and potash were applied
in their commercial forms. A new
fact seems to be brought to light, as
it is said that quantity of nitrogen
taken up from the barnyard manure
produced more substance than when
the same quantity was taken up from
the commercial fertilizer. Just how
much the difference was we do not
know, but if considerable, it should
lead to some experiments to find the
cause of this.
The barnyard manure was found to
be less valuable than manure from
stalls where it had not been exposed
to the weather.
These experiments teach lessons
that are applicable to soils of old
lands, or such as are deficient in nj
trogen. 1t is evident that in soils
having an abundance of available nj
trogen and humus the application of
barnyard manure would have little or
no effect. For it is manifestly i'm.
possible to scientifically treat any
soil without knowing its mechanical
construction, it's content of available
plant food and it's usual supply of
humus and moisture. -..s

Creamery Associations,

In New Zealand the secretaries of
the creameries have formed an organi-
cation and have held an institute. The
suggestion contained in the formation
of this organization will doubtless be
acted upon elsewhere and will result
in closer drawing together of these
interests. In this country the cream
cry managers doubtless hold about the
same relative relation to the cream
cries that the secretaries do in New
Zealand. 1t certainly would be step
in advance II the managers of cream.
cries could get together once in
awhile and hold an institute. 1t

From the Farmers Review: The
heavy SHOWS and early rains put the
ground in good shape for spring work.
The 200 acres of fall wheat sown is
excellent. OF the 165 varieties sown,
all but % came through the winter.
OF those that did not get through
the larger part failed on account of
poor seed as no stand was secured.
A few winter killed. Only one of the
nine varieties of rye sown gives prom
Use. The area devoted to each va
riety varies from the small space CIV
en- few grains to over twenty acres.
The larger number are hybrids of the
best varieties in this section, and va
rieties that have been introduced
from other countries where conditions
are similar. 1t is the object to watch
each variety carefully, with the hope
OF finding better Weddings. and more
desirable varieties. Careful notes are
taken frequently regarding each va
rlety. Some of them have already
shown great promise The Macaroni
wheats are also receiving attention.
Five varieties were sown ON sod last
spring, and in addition thirteen new
varieties have been sown, covering an
area of nearly 40 acres. Also % va
rieties of barley, and Is varieties Of
oats have, been sown this spring. This
makes 230 varieties of small grain on
an area of $40 acres. The work with
grains and grasses is largely in coop

rigation is also being begun in CO.
operation with the irrigation investi-
cation. Large wells are being put
down, and centrifugal pumps will be
used to. raise the water, which will
be applied to various crops in COM
parison with the same crops not ir-
rigated. Quite number of varieties
OF corn will also be tried. These have
been collected from Old Mexico and
other places in the drier parts of the
country. AS a beginning in horticul-
ture and forestry, 400 fruit trees, con-
sisting of apples, peaches, plums and
cherries, and 300 berries have been
planted. One thousand forest trees
have been set for shelter and shade
Four thousand small Seeding cedars
and pines are planted under a partial
shade to give them as nearly as pos
pible natural conditions. After two
years in the nursery they will be
transplanted along the creek banks
to beautify the twelve miles of timber
that grows along the stream. The
legislature last winter appropriated
$32,500 for equipment and mainten-
ance for the next two years. G..

One of Natures Tricks.

It is we'll known that many insects
bear a close resemblance to leaves,
twigs and other things, and there is
no doubt that this is for their pro-
lection against, or their concealment
from, their enemies. One of the most
remarkable cases Of this kind was
recently made known to the Entomo-
logical society of London. 1t is that
of a spider that lives N the rocks near
Cannes. A csrtain kind OF moth in
habits the yecks also and their cases
are to be found all about. IL was no
ticed that the spider, when at rest,
looked exactly like one OF the moth
cases.
