Hinton, Ky, Nov. 2s.-(Special)-
1t has long been claimed that Diabetes
is incurable, but Mr.. E. j. Thompson,
teacher in the Hinton school, has
pleasing evidence to the contrary. Mr..
Thompson had Diabetes. He took
Dodd's Kidney Pills and is cured. In
n statement he makes regarding his
cure Mr.. Thompson says:
81 was troubled with my kidneys for
more than two years and was treated
by two of the best doctors in this part
Of the State. They claimed l had Dia-
betes and there was little to be done
FOR me. Then l started to use Dodd's
Kidney Pills and what they did for me
vas wonderful. 1t is entirely owing
to Dodd's Kidney Pills that l am now
enjoying good health"
Many doctors still maintain that Diu.
bctes is incurable. But Diabetes is a
kidney disease and the kidney disease
that Dodd's Kidney Pills will 20 cure
has yet to be discovered.

ton. trying to figure out winners" during
their street car or elevated road ride to
the factories or offices where they are en-
ployed. Listen to them and you will hear
the language of the track. They know

and OF their seats in the saddle. They
know the horses and their supposed lik-
ings for track, weight and distance.

Losses may bring a tardy, detected re-

their first gambling lessons earlier than

fever of nance is in their blood. In pool

SEED CORN.

While the writer believes hat the
selection of the seed corn should be all
through the growing season rather
than at the time of ripening, If this has
not been lone it is an excellent plan to
ave the seed corn at the time of husk-
Ing or soon after. If selected at husk-
ing time much labor is saved later.
Most Of my neighbors have a basket
into which they throw selected ears
as they husk; these ears are placed
later by themselves in a portion of the
barn where it is warm and then leisure
days are spent in reselecting, going
over the pile and selecting the very
choicest ears. These are then removed
10 another portion of the barn or some
place reserved for seed storage, where
it is dry but not sufficiently warn to
shrivel the kernels. If the corn is
damp after this second selection it
should be spread out on the floor and
we'll dried out before being placed in
the store room. This method Of Sc
lecting and caring for the seed corn is
not hard and the result will be a splen-
lie lot of seed which will bring good

GRAIN AND ROOTS FOR COWS.
A number of experiments have dem
onstrated hat the best results come
from feeding the grain to dairy COWS
after it is ground and there is also
considerable advantage in feeding a
number of grains either mixed or by
themselves. In the matter of root crops
feeding mainly carrots and mangels
II best results have come from slicing
The roots so that the COW may begin
to masticate at once without waiting to
bite the root to a proper size. While
there may be some doubt about the
wisdom of feeding dairy COWS heavily
on roughage. it is a good plan to give
them enough SO that they will have it
before them to tax when they please.
We find it a good plan to furnish this
roughage in small quantities so that
after the grain is eaten the COW can
make a few cuds: then, in the middle
of the morning and afternoon other
small quantities are given her. In this
way she not likely TO Yer eat of bulky
food and be unable to eat properly of
the grain ration. This sort of feeding
combined with the sunny stable, warm
and clean with plenty of fresh clean
water will fill the milk pail.
WATCH THE OLD HENS.
So long as the two or three year old
hen lays a fair number of eggs she is
profitable to keep, but the week there is
a decided break In her laying and she
shows no indication of resuming then she
should be put in rather small quarters and
fattened for the carcass market. 1t is
hard sometimes to thus dispose of a hen
who has turned considerable money into
the treasury, but when her usefulness as
a layer is over she will quickly turn profit
into loss by eating much more than he
value of the eggs she lays. If she is one
of the larger breds like Plymouth Rock.
Wyandotte or Brahma the carcass will
bring a good price in the market and it
will not take a great deal of corn to put
her in good condition. BY the way, in fat
tening fowls for market do not make the
mistake of feeding corn wholly. Let the
corn ration be a little more than was
given her when laying increasing it slight
ly each day until just before marketing,
the corn is about two-thirds of the ration.
Fowls fattened in this way are tender and
have an excellent color hat the over-fat

FEEDING COWS LITERALLY.

1t a been demonstrated time and
again that in order to make the dairy
COW pay she must have heavy feeds Of
we'll balanced rations. Indeed, statis-
ties show hat a COW fed on about thir-
teen pounds of digestible material daily
made a profit Of 3 cents a day for her
owner, While n fed on nearly sixteen
pounds made a profit of nearly 25 cents
a day. While this may not seem rea-
sonabl it is SO when we consider that
each animal requires n certain amount
of food to enable it to exist in good
health and the amount the COW eats
beyond this she converts into milk. If
the amount received beyond what is
necessary for her existence is small
the milk return will be small; if the
mount be liberal the milk return will
be liberal n every ounce of this ad-
ditional food counts heavily in the net
result. This is why it is found that
heavy feeders among COWS are the
most profitable. 1t is worth While for
any dairyman to work out this prob
lem for himself along this line. bearing
In mind that the Gov that is a heavy
eater is also a heavy drinker, and wa

suggested together With a clean. com

what results will be obtained. 1t may

sacrifice. AT any rale it Is worth CON

HOW ARE THE HoRsEs?

w. US
Farm horses that have had a busy sea-
son are not likely to be in the best condi-
ton at this season of the year. Generally
the trouble is indigestion due in a meas
ure to impaired condition generally and
sometimes they are troubled with worms.
Here is an ideal formula for horses in the
condition described. It is used by many
horsemen and is. to all intents and pur-
poses. the same as a famous condition"
remedy sold in large quantities to horse
owners. Have mixed at the drug store
five drains of emetic tartar in five ounces
Of graduated sugar. Divide in five pow
dcrs and give one in wheat bran brash
every morning before the regular food,
Which should be given an hour later. Aft
er the last powder has been taken wait
an hour and then give the horses n pill
composed of an ounce OF Barbados aloes
and a quarter ounce of ginger. This treat
ment will bring out the worms if there are
any. Here is the after treatment which
will act as a tonic. Take one pound of
ground flax seed and mix with it four
ounces of powdered sulphate of iron, five
ounces powdered gentian root, one ounce
powdered nuX Vomica, four ounces pow
dered nitrate of potash, two ounces of
powdered charcoal and two ounces of
powdered anise seed. Mix thoroughly and
stir 1t well. The dose is a tablespoonful
this mixture three times a day in the
grain fed the horse. BY the time the
quantity mixed is taken the horse will be
in fine condition.
THE CLEAN POULTRY HOUSE.
1t is simply impossible to win any degree
OF success in the poultry business unless
the houses are kept clean; not fairly clean,
but absolutely clean. 1t is safe to say that
fully one-half of the roublcs of poultry
raisers are due to %unclean houses for filth
begets disease and very quickly too among
poultry. Naturally the %droppings are the
most fertile source of the trouble, hence
great care should be paid to this. The
under the roost and after sprinkling dry
soil over the %droppings each morning use a
hoe and scrape them off to be put away
IN boxes for use on the garden later. Then
sprinkle a little lime and soil over the
dropping board and 1t is ready for night.
Cream the nests, frequently burning the
nest material and withdrawing the nest
box, s%prinkling in q little carbolic acid
each time. The clean poultry house will
do much toward filing the egg basket.

HIGH CORN, BETTER HOGS.

~ bONo
Whenever the crop Of corr is high
enough so that the grower is tempted
to turn a part Of his crop into money
he is forced to feed his hogs
something besides corn. With the result
that they are the better for 1t. The
writer had an experience of this kind
when floods destroyed his corn crop
and it became necessary to buy grain
for all the stock. Not until that time
would it have been possible to persuade
us that any feed was better for hogs
corn. AS the feed had to be
bought we concluded to test the, to us,
theory and the ration that year con-
sisted of about one-third corr until we
approached the fattening season. Dur
ing the season the hogs had the range
and their indoor feed was all sorts
OF grain mixed, whatever could be
bought at lowest prices. not the very
best way to feed, of course. but 1t was.
apparently, better than the all corn
diet. A close record of cost was kent
and we found hat by reason of the
fact that we were able to market the
hogs considerably earlier owing TO the
ration, the expense of raising them was
less h when corr was, cheap. Since
then we have sold a portion of the corn
crop for what It would bring and put
the cash into a variety of grains; then
TOO. we have grown and fed root crops
and found that helped the profit very
materially by reducing the cost for
