MISCELLANEOUS.
Weak
Hearts

Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nin CT every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when it was simple indiges-
ton. 1t is a scientific fact that all cases Of
heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable to, but are the direct result OF indi-
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, putting II up against the
heart. This interferes with the action Of
the heart, and in the course of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.

trouble and in bad state as had heart trouble

BUILDING A SMALL SILO.

Where to Begin.

the common 2x4 of commerce. A silo
IA feet in diameter will feed 20 cows;
a 16-foot 30 cows, and q 25-foot 60 cows,
with no loss.
We will now suppose that you are
ready to build the silo. The site Is Sc
lected as near as possible to the man
gers. The site is laid of with board,
c, half as big as the intended silo. A
pin in end of board driven in center o.
foundation and a peg in the other end
to mark circle, will lay foundation mark
for foundation ditch. BY moving pin in
from outside circle Is inches, the inside
line of the foundation Is made. Exca-

In with broken rock to level OF ground.
Make cement thin enough to run freely
between these rocks and fill to level OF
ground, then brick or rock can be used

STOCK AND DAIRY NOTES.

For hog pastures woven wire is the
best fencing material.
For the first few days newly purchased
hogs should be fed lightly. IA
No man should attempt to raise hogs
without adequate fencing Of yards and
pastures. .E +-.- s8
The portable hog house is coming into
very general favor, especially In disease
infested districts. .... u 81
Sweet cream butter Is coming much
into use in this country. This kind OF
butter is not made. as might be supposed
from the name, from cream from sweet
milk, but is generally made of ripened
cream. 1t is called sweat because it ia
not sailed. '~s
A COW must be very poor mixer
not to respond to good feed and good
care. Good feeding can greatly increase
the milk-producing powers of the cows
we have, but only to the limit of their
natural capacity. Many of our cows are
being fed so unscientifically that they
have never been brought up to their full
capacity Review.

to carry the foundation six or eight
inches above level for sill.
Have ten-inch boards cut in segments
Of the circle of inside diameter OF
foundation. Enough Of this lumber
should be cut for sill of four thick
nesses. Bed the first course in NOR
tar. Break joints with the second layer,
painting first course we'll with coal tar.
Paint second course and nail in a few
places with six or eight penny nails.
Then lay third course and nail to other
sections with ten penny nails; fourth
course same way.
You are now ready to build the silo.
Set up four Axe hardwood timbers, a.
at equal distances around the sill, and
spike securely to sill. Then plumb and
brace we'll. Begin by setting up 2x4's.
b, just as they come from the lumber
yard. No beveling necessary. Have
one man at top of scaffold, one III mid

60-penny spikes ready, and as 2x4 is set
up, spike through it's side into it's ad-
joining mate in four or five places. II
the lumber is quite dry, it is we'll to

together as above, allows one to 60

Before putting up the silo, lay the
2x4's on level place, close together.
fiat down. Then take an old broom or
whitewash brush and paint with coal
tar. Let them lie for a day or two, then
turn over and paint same as before.
Paint the edges in same way. In doing
this you have a silo that will last about
as long as you will want one.
The hoops, d, can be one-half or five
eighths inch iron. Each hoop is in four
sections To reach through the Axe tim
bers, have threads cut six or eight inch
es on each end. Use cast iron washers.
To make doors: Go inside Of silo. Take
pieces cut out and nail together with
barrel slaves. These doors will be held
in place by pressure Of the silage. Don't
spend a cent on cement or other bot
toms. Cement will not preserve the
silage as we'll as the ground.-E. N.

A Cement That Will Stick.

A capital cement for broken china
and bric-a-brac that can be made at
home is obtained by mixing half an
ounce of gum arabic with half tea
spoonful of boiling milk and adding
enough plaster of paris to produce a
creamy paste. To use successfully have
the pieces that are to be mended warm
and apply the cement warm with a
small brush. Objects repaired with this
cement have to be set aside for a week
before they can be used, but after that
they can be washed in either warm or
cold water with safety. Soaking, how
ever, they will not stand.

RATTLERs MIXED THE COW.
Vermont Farmer Makes q Discovery
. Which Surprised Him and His
Neighbors as Well.


Simeon Johnson farmer OF Tyson.
VT, made a discovery recently which
so surprised him that he has spread tho
marvellous tale from one end of tho
county to the other
+ For several months Sim has known
that some one or something has been
stealing milk from his pet Jersey COW.
His good wife told him that the Jersey
had simply dried up and that he was
AFFLICTED with spell of imagination"
Sim, however, declared that he knew
that he knew, and sat up nights to dis
cover the thief. But he saw no invaders,
and the more sleep he lost the madden
he got. ''.f
The Jersey was one of herd Of 20.
and as her milk was richer than that Of
the others the supply was saved for FAM
lily use. She was quartered in a stall
at the end Of the cow stable and until
three months ago gave four quarts
morning and night. Then she suddenly
cut down her morning quota to little
or nothing. Sim would have agreed
with his wife If Bess hadn't furnished
the usual amount at night and seemed
ravenously hungry.
1t made no difference whether Sim
watched or not; the milk was always
gone in the morning, although 1t was
several times established that at mid
night the supply was normal. 1t was
this fact more than anything else that
bothered Sim and gave him creepy and
uncanny sensations when he kert his
vigils by the dim, uncertain light Of an
old kerosene lantern. He c0GldnI hg-
ure out why Bess should not give milk
in the morning when there was p'eety at
midnight, or why she should b. well
supplied at night and not at the early
milking
Il don't believe there is an: thing
milkin' that cow" said Mrs. johnson
one day recently, "but If there is it
crawls, and you won't catch it unless
you clean out the bedding so you can
see the stall floor"
Sim allowed there might be some-
thing in this, and so he swept out the
stall and made Bess lie on the planks
instead Of on fine bed of clean straw.
About nine o'clock he got his lantern
and once more took up his post Of vigil.
He had begun to doze when he heard
Bess shift her position, and he held up
the light He was just in time to see
long, glistening, sinuous form slip from
under the side Of the reclining COW and
glide down a rat-hole in the corner Of
the STALL At the same time he heard
familiar sound that caused his hair to
stand on end.
"Rattlesnakes." he gurgled, and
grabbed pitchfork.
Bess jumped to her feet and n,ooed
contentedly as the farmer advanced
cautiously and began a careful investl-
cation. There was but one rat-hole.
This led to pile of rocks under the
barn, and Sim retired to the house. In
the morning, with the help of the hired
man, the rocks were removed, and five
rattlers, each three times its natural
size, were killed. According to the
number Of rattles, all but one was
young, but exceedingly large and fat
