Wheat as Horse Feed.

Wheat as food for horses was test,
ed at the North Dakota Experiment
Station. The results are published in
Bulletin No. 20 of that station. The
wheat was fed at the rate of IL
pounds daily, and the horses were
given an average days work. It was
found that wheat alone was not a
satisfactory grain ration for a work
horse. There was tendency for the
horses to get ''off feed" and for the
digestion to become deranged. No
tests are reported where wheat
formed part of the grain ration for
work horses;> upon this point, DR..
Salmon, of the Bureau Of Animal In
dustry, U. S. Department Of Agricul.
ture, gives suggestions in circular
OF Information issued in 1894.
There are certain points to be
borne in mind when one is commen-
cling to feed wheat. Our domesti.
Gated animals are all very fond of it,
but are not accustomed to eating it.
precautions should consequently be
observed to prevent accidents and dis.
ease from its use. It is matter OF
common observation that when full
fed horses are changed from old. to
new oats they are liable to attacks OF
indigestion, collie and founder. II
such results follow the change from
old to new oats, how much more
likely are they to follow a radical
change. such as that from oats to
wheat? For this reason, wheat should
at first be fed in small quantities. It
should, when possible, be mixed with
some other grain and care should be
taken to prevent any one animal from
getting more than the quantity in.
tended for it. These precautions are
especially necessary when wheat is
fed to horses, as these animals are
peculiarly liable to collie and other
disturbances Of the digestive organs,
accompanied or followed by laminitis.
Cattle, sheep and hogs p frequently
crowd each other from the feeding
troughs, in which; case some individ
uals obtain more than their. share,
7 and may bring on serious or fatal at.
tacks of indigestion. The best form in
which to feed wheat is to roll. or grind
it into q coarse meal. It may then
be fed alone, or mixed with corn
meal or ground oats. When ground
fine it is pasty and adheres to the
teeth, gums and cheeks SO that it is
not so readily masticated OF. eaten.

Kitchen Conveniences.

In these days every sort of an in
| ducemtnt to home making is offered
| by clever brains. mostly feminine, and
| it must be confessed that h0uSeWUrE
has been lifted from the depths OF
drudgery to the plane of reasonable la
Dor.
| We are such a peculiar people that
most problems have to be offered to Us
in novel fashion to attract a particle
of attention. Mr.. Rockefeller is a good
example of this in his devotion TO the
game of golf. He is laying in a store
of health and strength that will pro-
| long his life ana renew his youth, and
| is lOosing the hold of his old enemy,
| Indigestion, by his seven-milc walks in
pursuit of d small, white ball. He
might have done all this years ago,
had he taken up walking, but had any
body proposed a stunt of half that
length he would have disdained it,
But the fascination of costume, i'm
plcmcnts ana the rules governing the
game, have given u fascination to tn"
exercise of walking, the principal part
of the game to all but experts. AS Il
matter of fact, We do not need an eX-
pcnsivc outfit to attain health and
strength. Golf, tennis and other out
door games are delightful, that l grant
but they require an outlay of money
that is not possible to US an, while
walking is free to all and possible to
any owners of Il normal body. And my
advise is to cultivate it and save nick
els as well as health. There are too
many among us who think a trolley can
is a necessity.
There are plenty of women who
scorn homework, but are devoted to
gymnasiums. Now the best of all
round, indoor exercise is to be found il
the manifold duties of housekeeping.
Bcdmaking. sweeping. busting, even
cooking, bring more than one set of
muscles into play and none of them
are more destructive to the beauty OF
the hands than gymnasium work and
outdoor games. l am not advocating
the performing of all the home duties.

parts of them. OF course if you have
a liking for the work. and the strength

advise it unless lack of money is the
inducement. There are so many ways
in which time can be proftably spent.

BECAUSE SHE DROPPED.
Reason for the Large Waist of the
Venus de Milo.

''.'t'A Y I,
1t is no cXaggeration to say that the
modern woman will feel under ever
lasting obligations to Mrs. Ida Evans
Ifaincs Of the committee on dress OF
the National Council Of Women, who
eXuiained to the West side mothers
council why the Venus de Milo has Il
large waist. Physical culturists, med
zeal men and dress rcfOlmers have long
made it Il point to drag the Venus dc
Milo waist into all of their arguments
AGAINST closc-fitting clothing and tn"
corset They insist that the curves Of
the feminine \.Waist Of our days arc
unnatural. and due altogether to the
conduct OF our forcmothers who We're
given to The replnhen&iDlc practice of
tight lacing.
This theory has met with frequent
and severe Sctbacks in the past, mainly
Mt the hands of those who have given
little thought to the peculiar circum-
stance that the slender waist is quite
common among women whose mater
nal ancestors were not, for numerous
and obvious reasons, addicted to the
tight-Ia cing habit, but Mrs. HaincS
deals il crushing blow when she says
that the Venus de Milo had q big waist
simply because it was her own fault.
At first galnce this may appear like 2
W0manS reason, but on second thought,
and especially after Mrs. Hancs has
rccn given Il chance to explain herself
morr fully. it will be recognized as =
sound conclusion. Mrs iaincs is frank
enough to admit that the idea is not a.
together her own. "A famous doctor

Catarrh Of the Stomach is Generally
Called Dyspepsia Something
to Produce Artificial Diges-
tiOn is Generally Taken.
Hence pepsin, Pancreatin and a Host
Of Other Digestive Demsdies
Has Been Invented.
These Remedies Do Not Reach the
Seat Of Difficulty, Which
Is Really Catarrh.

Ex-U. S. Senator NJ. q. Butler from
South Carolina, was senator from that
state for two terms. In recent letter
to The Peruna Medicine Co., from
Washington. d. c., savs:
81 can recommend Peruna for dys-
pepsia and stomach trouble. | have
been using your medicine for a short
period and feel very much relieved.
il is indeed wonderful medicine be-
sides good tonic. IN. c. Butler.
The only rational way to cure dys-
pepsia is to remove the catarrh.
Peruna cures catarrh. Peruna does
not produce artificial digestion. 1t
cures catarrh and leaves the stomach to
perform digestion in natural way.
This is vastly better and safer than re-
sorting to artificial methods.
Peruna has cured more cases OF dys-
pepsia than all other remedies COM
bined, simply because it cures catarrh
wherever located. II catarrh is To-
Gated in the head. Peruna cures it. II
catarrh has fastened itself in the throat
or bronchial tubes, Peruna cures it.
When catarrh becomes settled in the
stomach, Peruna cures it, as well in
this location a. in any other.
Peruna is not simrly remedy for
dyspepsia. Peruna is catarrh REM
edy. Peruna 'ures dyspepsia because
it is generally dependent upon catarrh.
