 If you want . strong, active brain. you must saks oars ef your stomsch.
 Brain workers are always the first to suffer from indigestion and dyspepsia.
 They are also first to give way under the strain.
 An active brain requires plenty of rich, red blood. Dyspepsia shuts of the blood supply. Food cannot digest-can- not yield ncurishment.
 Take a Rexall Dyspepsia Tablet each evening and you'll do three times as much work the next day. It will put your stomach right, get your bowels into condition and fill your arteries with good blood.

THE vLADIvosToK SQUADRON
Will Make Japan Guard Its Vessels
 of Transport.

St. Petersburg. April 26.-The Elm peror has received a dispatch from the commander of the Vladivostok squad ron confirming the reports of the sink ing of a Japanese transport of 500 tons at Wonsan (Gensan). The object of the squadron is to destroy all trans< ports traversing the sea of Japan, showing the Russian flag in Korean waters. and impress the population ad- vantageously also compelling the Jap anese to guard. all their transport ex- petitions.
 The foreign office denies that Rus sian troops have been sent to occupy neutral territory west of the Liao riv- CT. The report may have grown out of the stationing of a force on, the west bank of the river. opposite New Chwang. to defend the city in that di- rection. No protest has been received from the Chinese government, and it is said China has no ground to protest.

CHERRIES FROM SPROUTS.
Unless the Tree Root Belongs to Pro-
nounced Variety Success Is
Prob1ematical.

Answering an inquiry in the Journal
of Agriculture, Jacob Faith says:
Sprouts that grow around Early Rich
mond cherry trees will produce Early
Richmond cherries if the tree root is
an Early Richmond cherry. Twent:--
three years ago we grated Early Rich
mond cherries on one-year-old Seeding
plum root; grew them in the nursery
one year. Ninety-five per cent of the
plum seedlings came up as they were
grated in the crown of the plum roots,
and about Is per cent of the cherry
CRAFTS grew. The plum roots also
threw up plum sprouts, which we dug
up, cut all plum sprouts from the roots
and planted where we wanted them to
grow. Set them about three inches
deeper than usual. The second year
they commenced, few cherry-sprouts
from the roots, also a few plum
sprouts. The plum sprouts we dug up
and destroyed; the cherry sprouts we
planted in the orchard. Of course,
they bore the same fruit as the parent
tree, and l had no more bother with
the plum sprouts. Thus start can be
given from the sprouts, like our So
called dooryard cherry. I see no diff
ference in the above trees and fruit
from those budded on mahaleb stock.
This will apply to other varieties of
cherries and plums, but grating stone
fruit is very particular job. If one
fourth of the CRAFTS grow it is good
luck. Stone fruits. such as peach,
cherry and plum, are budded; apples
and similar tree seed are grated To
protect cherries from birds, the best
plan that I ever found is to plant a
few mulberry trees within 100 feet of
the early cherry trees; the birds pre-
fer mulberries to cherries, strawber-
ries and other fruit

Cows Need Plenty of Salt.

Sailing the cows IS one of the little
things that is sometimes lost sight of
under the pressure of other and what
le regarded as more important work.
but a trial recently made at the Mis-
sissippi Experiment station indicates
that inattention to this point may be a
rather expensive oversight Three
cows were kept without salt for four
weeks and their milk record kept dur
ing the last two weeks of that period;
then they we're given the usual allow
ance of salt for two weeks, and on
comparing the milk records it was
found that the COWS gave Al pounds
of milk during the first period when
salt was withheld and 564 pounds
during the second period when salt
was furnished, a difference of 10
pounds of milk in two weeks in favor
of sailing.

THE COMMERCIAL ORCHARD
A Profitable Farm Industry, Provided
tits Conducted Judiciously and
With Common Sense.

Commercial orchards are being
planted on a large scale in many Sec
tions of the apple regions. Large
contiguous blocks reaching one to
:. 900 acres. are being handled success
fully, yet we believe that the same
number of trees planted in 10 to 20
acre plots would give better results.
1t has occurred to us in our observa-
lions covering a number of years that
it would be better in planting 40 or 80
acres. as the case may be, to plant in
blocks, leaving avenues at least 100
Yards wide, which could be cultivated
in small fruits or other crops. Our
reasons for this is that in our expe-
rience in packing apples We have found
that after the trees have become large
the limbs almost if not reaching each
other, that the fruit is not so perfect
in the large orchards as it is in the
smaller ones. and have come to the
conclusion that it is easier to combat
the ravages of insects and fungi in the
smaller plots than it is in very large
plantations AS the extended and I'M
frequented forest is the habitation Of
wild animals and birds, SO may the
extensive orchards, after becoming
thickIy grown, become to greater ex-
| tent the habitation and harbor for in
! sects and fungi, than the smaller and
more frequented blocks. AS a large
percent of the growth in the develop
ment of trees, fruits and plants is sup
piled by light and air, we perhaps give
too little consideration to this feature
of fruit culture, and have suffered by
doing So We know of no vocation
that requires the application of good
! judgment and common sense more, or
one that pays any better on the cap
| ital invested, when applied, than COM
mercial orcharding. The individual
must take the best information he can
get as to soil, varieties, care and Gull
ture, and intelligently apply it to his
needs, governed by local environments
with which he is surrounded. Do this
and he will succeed in growing an or
chard The time for gathering our
commercial crops is also very import
ant. Fruit should always be gathered
when at the proper stage of ripening,
regardless of the time of season.

When the Lightning Strikes.

Here is a suggestion from an ex-
change that may prove of some value:
The season of lightning losses is now
on. A large share of losses which
the farmers mutual insurance COM
panies are called upon to pay is caused
by loss of stock by lightning. This
results from the almost universal use
Of wire fencing for the pastures and
the failure to properly ground the
wires, the wire on the fence being
able to carry current heavy enough
to kill stock half mile from the
point of discharge. A crow bar, some
short pieces of wire and a man can
protect an ordinary pasture in half
a day. A piece of wire attached to
the fence wire and run in the ground
to a depth of three feet will do the
work if placed every 80 or 40 rods along
the fence.

of the industry. On account of the
land being more broken than in tho
southern district, though the soil is
equally fertile, there are not the same
opportunities for extensive operations;
and while cattle raising is as profitable
here as elsewhere, different methods
have to be adopted for their protec-
ton, especially in the winter season.
An authority on the subject has
stated that agriculture in any coun-
try never reaches the minimum of
development until the farmers engage
at least proportionately in dairying,
though the surroundings must always
determine the extent to which any
feature of the industry may be prose-
cuted. 1t is certainly then that if
the agricultural possibilities of this
portion of the prairie country be esti-
mated by its adaptability to dairy
farming even the most skeptical must
acknowledge they are unsurpassed in
any country in the world. AS init
mated above, even dairying may be
successfully carried on in any corner
of the territories, but this zone has
everything to recommend it as the
ideal spot for this branch of the bust
ness.
The mining districts of British
Columbia, which consume an immense
lot of dairy products, are close at
hand and always afford a good mar
let for butter, cheese, pork, poultry
and eggs

LOUISVILLE FOWL A FREAK.
Has the Head of a Chicken and the
Body of Duck and Quacks
and Cackles.

A thoroughly developed duck, so far
as feet, wings and body are concerned,
surmounted with head which would
do credit to the proudest cock that
ever strutted a barn yard, is fowl
owned by Albert G. Eilers, who lives
on the Beardstown pike, two miles
from Louisville, KY. The bird has just
passed its first birthday, and for the
past q months has been an object OF
unparalleled curiosity.
Mr. Eilers is the proprietor of gro
Gerry and saloon. and as side issue
is chicken and dog fancier. He also
has a number of ducks of the ordinary
white variety, and it was one of these
which Matched the freak fowl last sum-
mer. When the chicken-duck first ap-
peared Mr.. Eilers knew not what TIC
do with it. He scarcely expected it tC
live on account of it's deformities, but
after a sickly week or two it began to
grow and thrive, until it now weighs
nearly six pounds. The bird was
Matched from a ducks egg, and for g
week was cared for by mother duck
The mother soon noticed the curious
build of the fowl, however, and imme-
diately disowned her offspring. Mr.
Eilers then carefully cared for it until
it was able to secure it's own living
among the chickens and ducks of his
barn yard.
The head of the hybrid is as perfect.
ly constructed as that of any chicken
The bill is slightly longer than thai
usually owned by chickens, but the
head and comb are exact The neck is
long and carries the head erect, but a.
it's base the resemblance to chicken
ceases entirely. The body is long an(
low and waddles about on a pair OF
short legs to which are appended
Webbed feet. The wings are large ant
capable of carrying the bird a consid
cradle distance through the air. The
fowl takes to water as readily as
duck, but eats everything peculiar tt
chicken. It's voice is the most pecul
lar part about it's makeup. At times
the "quack! quack!" of duck is hearC
all over the lot. and an instant Later
the "cackle! cackle!" of chicken al
most destroys the equilibrium of any
curious observer.

Time to Eradicate sassafras.

Sassafras is one of the worst pests
that can find hold on a field. Cut it
down, or even grub it up, and it will
reappear almost Unexpectedly, grow
ing rapidly and taking possession OF
Ne land. There is time when it can
be removed to the best advantage,
however, and that is by grubbing
about the first of September. removing
the roots and then clearing off the
field. Should any plants appear next
spring go into the field and touch a lit
tie sulphuric acid on each-half tea
spoonful will answer-and repeat
should any roots appear later, first
cutting off all the plants that show
above ground. This is also an excel
lent method of eradicating thistles and
other weeds that are difficult to re-
move.

Second Part.
The second part of the Canadian
prairies embraces the great wheat grow
ing belt of the country which is easily a
half larger than any other in the world.
II includes about $50. 000,0 900 acres. As
it is comparatively free of broken land,
large lakes and rivers, about 125, 000, 900
acres of it can be brought under the
plow. Placing a farmer on every half
section 1920 acres), it can comfortably
locate 500 900 farmers or 1000 900 of an
AGRICULTURAL community. A glance now
at what the farmers of the territories
are doing will give better idea of what
can be done in this great wheat-growing
zone. The territorial government re-
ports show that in 1908 there were raised
16.629.149 bushels of spring wheat off
of S37, PA acres, an average of 1904
bushels per acre; off 440,662 acres of
oats there were grown 14,179,7 05 BUSH
els, an average of 32.17 bushels per acre;
90 .667 acres produced La 209 bushels
of barley-2465 to the acre, and 80, 431
acres produced 292,S5 bushels of fax
seed, 9.03 to the acre. AS but 1 1888, 434

of the entire wheat-growing area of the
territories was under crop, a little fig

country under wheat will raise the 200,-

nuires from outside countries.

in the east, it has been left for American
settlers who have invaded this district
within the past two or three years to
prove that splendid crops Of grain can
be grown on the land which had hitherto
been the feeding ground for the herds OF
cattle and bands of horses that ranged
here.
That ranching is carried on most sue
