Prolific Poland Chinas.

Mr.. A. A. McPherrin, one OF the eA-
hibitors of Poland Chinas at the Page
county fair last week, insists that the
red hogs are not the prize winners
when it comes to raising big families OF
pigs and he cites four of his motherly
old sows that have forty-eight pigs,
and he says that thru his herd the av-
erage is high. He thinks that the
cause why SO many people raise small
filters of pigs from the Poland Chinas
is that not enough care is used IN
mating. 1t is continual in-breedfng.

Soil Renovator.
The cowDea is wonderful renovator
of soil, the value of which is not yet
generally recognized. even in the south
where it has been most largely grown
and experimental with. At the Louis
lana station (bulletin 400 sixty three
varieties have been tested. For vines
and for green manuring the best vari-
cites are the unknown, black, clay. ana
red. while the strictly bunch varieties,
whippoorwill. blue blackeye. etc, give
larger returns in peas. Cowpeas can
be converted into hay or preserved as
silage. both being palatable and nutrit-
ious as food for stock. A three years
rotation with five crops Goats, cowpeas,
cotton and corn, and corn and cow
peas), with suitable fertilizers for each
crop, has been found most effective in
building I'D worn soils. II the vines
are not plowed under they should be
fed to stock and the manure put on the
land. Plots on which this crop had
been grown for three years showed an
estimated gain of 100 pounds per acre
of plant food in the soil where the
crop had been removed and nearly 400
pounds per acre where it had been
plowed under. For economy's sake it is
recommended for the growth to plow
under the green manure In the fall and
sow the ground later in some winter
crop. like rye, to be turned under if
spring crop is desired.

Think what this means. Imagine the
amount of misery that exists and is endured
simply because people do not know there is
an absolute cure.
The only way to cure any complaint is to
remove the cause. There are very few dis.
eases or ailments that can be cured by ex.
ternal application-and piles is not one OF
them Piles can be cured; the treatment
must, however, be internal, for the cause Of
piles is an internal disorder Of the liver or
the bowels. Even catarrh of the stomach
and bowels can be cured by DR.. PERKINS,
PILE SPECIFIC, The Internal Remedy.
Here is an instance of what this practically
infallible remedy will do:

Sir: have nearly finished the former bottle
of Perrin's Pile Specific and am practically

clans would have pronounced incurable, as !

to go to the toilet room from three to five
times each day and each time would bleed
from one-half to one teacupful / had to
resort to bandages and absorbent cotton to
check the flow of blood, and now the past
ten or twelve days there has been no sign Of
bleeding and my appetite is good; have
gained ten pounds in weight and feel like
new lease Of life was given me.
