Don't feel that the farm life must
be all grind and that every foot of
soil must produce a money crop or
something that may be used on the
home table. Use some of the liberal
space you are fortunate in possessing
to beautify the rest. Cover the bare
veranda with vines, in the shade OF
which you and yours may rest a
while. One dollar will buy enough
vines Of such hardy kinds as Begonia,
Honeysuckles and American ivy to
shade the house from one end to the
other in few years. Then give up
some of the door yard to few
hardy shrubs, or better still, set a
mass of them in the corner next the
roadside. A few Ornamental trees,
choosing those best suited to your eli
mate, will add wonderfully to the APP
pearance of the farm in a few years,
and you will not miss the few dollars
they cost. Do these things and do
them this spring, so as to have the
benefit of them the sooner.

Lives Lost at Work.

Some interesting statistics are given
concerning the number OF lives OF
worlimen lost in England in a year.
The industries in Great Britain cause
on an average the loss of 6,000 work
men yearly, and iniure $4,000 more.
This list includes only those who are
actually killed or injured In accidents
and makes no account of the thousand
who die as the result Of diseases con-
tracted in following their several
trades
Naturally, the sea claims the larg-
est death roll. In 1899, the last year
of which statistics are available, $500
sailors and fishermen were drowned or
killed by accidents. Considering that
GO vessels were lost during the year
on British coasts, the number is not
above expectation.
Any one who remembers the extent
TO British mines will not be surprised
TO learn that the mining industry
claims most victims, 1,0S9 were killed
outright, 500 of whom died by falls of
earth, and 302 by various accidents un-
derground. G44 were injured but not
fatally.
The next largest cause OF death
were the factories for 81 hands were
killed outright; 162 such deaths oc-
Cured in machine shops, while. the
building OF ships cost los lives. Fac
tories caused 69,SS9 lives out of 92,215.
Fourth on the list comes the loss of
the life of railroad employees. of whom
5S4 were killed during 1899 and 1852
injured. Only nineteen OF these
deaths and 1876 injuries were caused
by accidents to trains. The majority
Of fatalities were due to working on
the permanent way.

Taking War Motion Pictures.

In very recent wars the notion
picture cameras have made their ap.
pearance. Considering the difficulties
attending ordinary photography in war
one can imagine at what expense of
money and labor-to say nothing OF
courage-moving scenes on the firing
line are secured. c. Fred Ackerman,
with whom | tented in China, Is un-
doubtedly the most successful of the
war motion-picture operators. His first
experience was in the PHILIPPINES,
where he secured in the face of tre-
mendous difficulties, some remarkable
results. One picture, in particular,
was a wonderful bit of realism. Ac-
herman had his camera right on the
firing line, and two American soldiers
were hit, and fell directly in front of
the lens, and only short distance
away. In the natural excitement of
operating his camera under such cir.
cumstances, Alderman did not know
that he had photographed two men in
the act OF being struck down until
many months afterward, when he saw
the picture exhibited in a New York
theatre.-Everybody's Magazine.

Whether the fowls must spend their
time this summer on the range or in
partial confinement, having only a
yard in which to run, shade is neces-
sary to their successful growth. To
say that shade cannot be provided Is
nonsense. There may be no trees
that can be utilized, it is true, but
every one can plant some vine or even
corn near enough to the poultry-yard
fence where it will cast shade, or
erect a cheap lumber shed, so ar
ranged that its roof will supply shade
during a portion of the day, and one
end the rest of the warm hours, leav-
ing 1t open on two sides at least for
a proper circulation Of air.
A similar structure, or several OF
them, can be erected on the range IL
the fowls must not be permitted in
the orchard for any reason Then,
remember that during the warm days
Of summer, clean, fresh water in
abundance is also essential, no matter
where the fowls and chicks are run
ming. Think of these things now and
get them ready, so that when the
warm days come, the fowls will not
need to suffer for even single day.

~. S. SENATOR FROM SOUTH CAROLINA
Recommends Pe-ru-na
For Dyspepsia and Stomach Trouble.
Catarrh Of the Stomach Is Generally
Called Dyspepsia Something
to Produce Artificial Diges-
tion is Generally Taken.
Hence, Pepsin, Pancreatin and Host
of0ther Digestive Remedies
Has Been Invented.
These Remedies Do Not Reach the
Seat Of the Difficulty, Which
is Really Catarrh.

Tx. u. s. Senator NJ. G. Butler from
T. South Carolina was Senator from that
State for two terms. In a recent letter to
The Peruna Medicine Co., from Washing
ton, ID. c., says:

The only rational way to cure dyspepsia
is to remove the catarrh. Peruna cures
catarrh. Peruna does not produce arti-
fetal digestion. 1t cures catarrh and
leaves the stomach to perform digestion
in a natural way. This is vastly better
and safer than resortng to artificial meth
DDS or narcotics.
Peruna has cured more cases OF dyspep-
sin than all other remedies combined,
simply because it cures catarrh wherever
located. If catarrh is located in the head,
Peruna cures it. Ii catarrh has fastened it.
self in the throat or bronchial tubes,
Peruna cures it. When catarrh becomes
settled in the stomach, Peruna cures it,
as well in this location as in any other.
Peruna is not simply remedy for
dyspepsia. Perunia is catarrh remedy.
Peruna cures dyspepsia because 1t is gem
orally dependent upon catarrh.

Autumn Colts.

Some men have a horror Of having
colt come in cold weather. | don't
think the weather has so much to
do with the poor stunted colts as the
feed. Where these stunted colts are
found you will find the small dish
with a small quantity of grain in It..
The farmer concludes the mare has
nothing TO do all winter but just
sucllle that colt, and consequently
does not need much grain. Here let
me give the new beginner a word Of
warning. BE sparing of the oats for
the first ten days after foaling- After
the colt is an hour or two old give
the mare a nice warm bran mash,
say, one gallon of bran. and for one
week after that give no grain of any
kind. Then try one pint twice a day
and gradually increase the ration so
that when the colt is two and a half
weeks old the mare will be at full
feed. But to go back to the small dish
with the small quantity. To my mind
the proper measure to go by is the
capacity of the stomach. By careful
ly watching your animal you will find
out what amount IL will do best on,
and that is the best measure obtain
able. Good hay and oats are not all
that is required for the mare and
foal. A bin of crushed oats, with an
equal part of bran, should be the
mainstay while the colt is sucking,
and it should be fed four or five
times a day. When the foal is four
or five weeks Old a box should be
placed in the stall with the mare,
but out of her reach and on level
with the colts breast, into which a
handful of dry oats can be thrown.
The colt will, soon begin to nibble at
them. When fairly started to eat,
little bran may be added, and as the
colt grows Older say, at two months
old, substitute crushed oats for
whole ones, | will leave the foal eat
ing crushed oats and bran at two
months old, and will tell of future
treatment at another time.-T. E., in
American Culivator.

Good MANAGEMENT.

Great care should be taken in So
lecting the right kind of brood SOW,
and in breeding to the right kind Of a
male, as a great deal depends upon
starting right in anything we under
take. About Is days previous to far
rowing, the SOW should be fed ra-
tion of mill feed and oats, and should
have plenty of salt ashes and slack
coal, where she could help herself at
any time. Three or four days before
farrowing she should be put in a far
rowing pen with just enough good
bright wheat straw for her bed. When
the little porkers arrive great care
should be taken with them until all
are perfectly dry, as at this time
many farmers lose a great many of
their pigs. The SOW should then be
left alone for "a hours, except to give
her drink of good pure water, about
IL hours afterward. She should then
be fed a mixed diet Of mill feed and
ground oats. She should be fed
lightly at first increasing each day,
until about three weeks, when she
should have full feed. At three or four
weeks old the pigs should be fed some
sweet milk, with corn meal or shorts
At first they eat a small amount. but
soon learn to like it and will run to
their trough and scramble to see
which can get the most.
Their trough should be where the
mother cannot eat with them. They
should be given just what they will
clean up two or three times daily
The SOW should have some corn to
keep up animal heat. Also the run
Of good clover pasture. The pigs
will begin TO crack corn at the age OF
three or four weeks. The feeding
place should be at least 100 yards
from the bed in order that they get
plenty OF exercise as this is very es
sential to the health of the hog.
Some farmers wean their pigs al
from six to 10 weeks old. But We
prefer to let the mother wean then
which she does In good time. We use
a good grade SOW and q thoroughbred
male. Ny husband has taken youl
valuable paper for eight years and We
have been benefited by It much.-Mrs

have their main limbs shortened, so
as to leave only a few inches of the
new wood. If, however, the limbs are
getting long and struggling they may
be cut back into two and even three
year-old wood. Before severe cutting
is done the grower should be certain
that there are not enough buds left
to produce fruit. The peach sets such
an abundant quantity of fruit buds
that II small percentage of them has
escaped injury there may be still
enough to produce paying crop Of
fruit.
