Science and Farming.

If you tell the average Missouri
farmer that he ought to use a little
more science in his business he will
reply that the advocates Of scientific
methods are mere theorists; that they
do very well in their way, but they
can't teach a practical agriculturist
anything In his line. Robert II. Kern,
St Louis lawyer, has lately given the
conservative farmers Of Macon County
lesson in scientific agriculture that
has opened their eyes. In settling an
estate he came into possession of some
almost worthless city property This
he traded for some land in Macon
County which seemed almost equally
valueless. The larger part Of it was
under water most of the time, and Il
good crop never had been raised on it.
Mr.. Kern called in an engineer and
had him make plans for a drainage
system. Then he called in a farmer
who understood the science of agricul-
ture and put him to work. The land
was drained perfectly, a bog became a
fine meadow, and where a swamp had
been from time immemOrial bumper
corn crop was raised. Now that farm
which, when Mr.. Kern got It, would
hardly have brought IS per acre, IS
worth $50 per acre. Ten thousand dol
lars worth of corn was raised on it
last year. 1t is said half the jewellers
in the Charlton bottoms are now talk
ing about hiring scientific engineers as
farm hands.-Kansas City Journal.

Horses fed literally, If not we'll ex-
ercised, will often get Off their feed.
The skill Of the feeder must remedy
this. Every one having the care of
stock of any kind should bear In mind
that all troubles of appetite and of
the digestive organs are generally
chargeable to the feeder rather than
the animal. Regularity. q keen judg-
ment and strict attention are the med
icine" the feeder of stock needs to ad-
minister.

CHILDROOD'S DAYS
Why the Heart Turns Back to Them
With Yearning.

Probably no man or woman has ever
attained middle age without looking back
and wishing that he or she were a boy
or girl again. The SPARKLE the hopeful
ness the capacity for enjoyment can never
be restored as in those innocent days when
good health, good appetites and buoyant
spirits were not marred by trouble or dis
tress. Childhood is happy because the di-
gesttve organs operate correctly; they
have not suffered from the abuse which
they far too often receive in after life.
Think Of the "cranlzy'' dyspeptic!-he was
once happy, sunny boy.
: Dyspepsia Is not only distressing and
dangerous on its own account, but it rem
ders the system susceptible to the attacks
Of all other diseases and tnterferes great
ly with remedial treatment Patients die
from all kinds Of diseases because the
stomach will not retain or distribute the
medicines administered
Chase's Dyspepsia Cure is the only
medicine which can be legitimately guar
anteed to- cure any case Of dyspepsia or
other stomach trouble, no matter how
severe or obstinate. It is purposely pre-
pared in liquid form so that the weak
tender stomach will not have to use up its
remaining power dissolving it, as In the
