Everybody is Tired--Spring
Weather Does lt-EveryOne
Should Be Cautious.

Depression of the nervous system at
the approach of spring is the cause.
General lassitude, dull, heavy sensa-
tions, continual tired feeling, with ir-
regular appetite, and sometimes loss of
sleep. Peruna meets every indication
and proves itself to be perfectly adapted
to all their varied p~eculiarities. Peruna
invigoratesth the system, r~cjuvenates the
feelings, restores the normal appetite
and produces regular sleep.
Thattired feeling which is the natural
result of the depressing effect of warm
weather Immediately after the invigor-
ating cold of winter, quietly disappears
when Peruna is taken. Thousands are
daily t~estifying to its priceless benefit.
Mrs. n. Kassatt, 1903 w. 18th street,
Des Moines, Ia, writes" am happy to
give my endorsement for your valuable
medicine, Peruna, as / consider it a val
liable medicine to take when the system
is run down from overwork. About
w years ago l felt that l must take a
long rest as l had been unable to work
for over a month and could not regain
my strength. l could not sleep at night
and was in a very nervous, high strung
condition. l decided to try what Pc
runa would do to buildup my strength,
and am pleased to say that 1 began to
improve very shortly, and in less than
two months / was able to take up my
work, and felt better than l have for
years. I take 1t now twice a year and
find hat it keeps me in perfect health"

byzantine Your Seed Corn.

With all the adverse reports COM
ing into this Office from various
sources, together with the results not
ed everywhere among men who have
tested their corn, it is not too much
to again urge our readers TO examine
their seed. Test is now. 1t is m too
early to determine the terminating
quality of the seed. If it is good, no
harm is done. On the other hand, If
the per cent. is too low to make plant
ing advisable, there is time to look
about for suitable seed. So important
is the matter of testing that experts
are urgent in their advice. Wiancko
of the Indiana station sends out the
following:
Not a single ear which was intend
ed for seed should be allowed to pass
without a perfect examination. To
make a proper examination of your
seed corn lay all the ears out in rows
where you can get at them comforta-
bly,. Take a few scattering kernels out
of each ear and examine the germs
carefully. Many ears which, for the
most part, are sound, will be found to
have little raised or swollen places
where the germs are likely to tie in
jured, so be careful to look out for
these. Discard all doubtful ars. Then
take five scattering kernels from each
of the ears which appear to be sound
and make a termination test. Make a
separate test of each ten ears"
While it is hardly probably that
they will, still it would be highly ad-
visable if farmers would examine
their corn down to the last ear. Their
corn in the end would pay for the ex-
ira labor. If taken early in the sea-
son there is time for such exhaustive
examination. The next best thing will
be to make thorough tests of every
bushels of ears. Ascertain if the av-
erage per cent. of termination is good.
Bear in mind the amount of land that
one bushel of corn will seed, and con-
slider that considerable work will be
labor well eXpended.-GoodalFs Farm

sold. The experiment was made for
the purpose Of demonstrating to the
people at home and to the western
men seeking u country that good
beef cattle can here be grown and
fattened for the market upon our
southern products easier and cheaper
than in the west. These experiments
have clearly demonstrated this. Mo
lasses is now worth with us from three
to five cents a gallon of IL pounds,
rice bran from $40 to $13 per ton, and
cottonseed meal from $40 to $25 per
ton. BY a combination of these feeds
a well-balanced ration can be obtained,
and this experiment has demonstrated
it's utility in feeding and fattening live
stock."-Farm and Ranch.

"A fertilizer should be applied on
the same principle that pepper, salt
and other seasonings are used in food.
The one encourages plant life while
the other pleases the taste.
-Macaroni wheat is by nature a
spring wheat. This fact is important
in view of the general wheat situation
of the southwest at this time. Much
fall sown wheat has been destroyed
by dry weather.
Poultry does we'll in connection
with an orchard. The one protects the
other by destroying worms and other
insects. The fowls require shade, and
are practically self supporting when
permitted to run among fruit trees.
If your garden or truck land does
not have a good, deep, moist he'd as a
result of good blowing done in time,
the garden will burn with the first ar
rival Of dry weather. Unrotted manure
in the soil will hasten this burning.
When horses are not being use 1t
isn't necessary to keep them on full
feed, but it is economy to keep them
in good condition at all seasons. When
a horse is in poor flesh he is more
likely to become diseased.
The most profitable use of CONNER
cial fertilizers is a subject of increas-
ing interest to those who study how to
beat the insect pests and drought by
the forcing system. In this respect
the use of fertilizers is almost indie
pendent OF native soil fertility.
Horses should be raised for quality
rather than quantity. Quality does not
necessarily mean speed when consid-
ered from the standpoint OF the farm
er. On the other hand a horse Of
quality should have endurance, and in
addition to other gaits should have q
fast walk and be sure footed.
Recent speculation in stock ex-
changes on cotton quotations caused
many of our farmers to think of put
ting in more cotton, in hopes the boil
weeyil wouldn't find 1t out. In fact,
many have concluded to chance a few
extra acres, boil weevil or no boil
weevil.
The falling forage crops
should be used as standbys. Plant
sweet sorghum, Kafir corn, milo
maize, alfalfa, corn, rape, cow-peas and
peanuts. There are local conditions
that may invite you to plant cassava,
artichokes, velvet beans and sugar
beets.

A Wonderful Discovery.

Broadland, S. Dak., March 2s.-Quite a
sensation has been created here by. tbs
publication of the story of G. W. Gray,
who after q special treatment for three
months was PROSTATE and helpless and
given up to die with Bright's Disease.
Bright's Disease has always been consid.
cred incuraple, but evidently from the
story told by Mr.. Gray, there is a remedy
which will cure it, even in the most ad.
vanced stages. This is what he says:
Il was helpless as a little babe. My
wife and l searched everything and read
everything we could find about Bright's
Disease, hoping that l would be able to
find a remedy. After many failures my
wife insisted that 1 should try Dodd's
Kidney Pills. l praise God for the day
when l decided to do so, for this remedy
met every phase of my case and IN a
short time ! was able to get out of bed,
and after a few weeks treatment l was a
strong, well man. Dodd's Kidney Pills
saved my life"
A remedy that will cure Bright's Disease
will cure any lesser Kidney Disease.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are certainly the
most wonderful discovery which modern
medical research has given to the world.

HORSE STABLES

Stables should be located where
there is good natural drainage and be
arranged with plenty of light and ven-
tilation. As lumber has become ex.
brilliantly high, many stable floors
are now made of concrete. When
made of the latter material they need
more bedding to prevent the animals
from bruising themselves when lying
down. Ventilators are arranged to
carry of the pungent ammonia odors
and also to admit fresh air. Ventila-
ton should be so arranged as to pre-
vent direct drafts on the horses, as
they will induce colds, rheumatism,
and pneumonia. The stall partitions
should come down to the floor, other
wise the animals are liable to thrust
their legs under the partition when in
the act of arising and injure them
selves. The managers should be con-
structed to slant inward so that the
horse will not injure its knees when
feeding. An ideal stable represents
warmth, light and ventilation and
should be provided with plenty of
pure water. 1t will need consider
able attention to keep the best con-
structed stable in proper condition by
thorough cleaning and disinfectant at

WHY HORSES "sLOBBER."

The excessive secretions of SALIVA,
or slobbers, as 1t is frequently called,
in horses, has variety of causes. It
may be symptom of some other af-
fection-of the mouth, teeth, throat,
or stomach, or due to direct irritants
in the food, such as lobilia. pilocarpin,
muscarin, tobacco, wild mustard, cal
chicum, garlic and ginger. Brown
or second-crop clover hay seems also
to induce an excessive salivary secre-
ton.
The treatment consists in the re-
moval of the cause. If further treat
ment seems to be necessary, simple
astringent washes for the mouth may
be used, such as vinegar and water,
borax, borac acid, sulphate, or tine
ture of chloride, of iron. Two drains
of any of the above in a quart of

THE CALVES.

Those that were dropped within
the last year, and which should have
good and suitable quarters by them
selves during the winter. They
should be fastened in similar man
ner to the older animals, with the
floor on which they stand of length
to correspond with their size. One or
two might run in a pen loose, but
where there are more it is better to
have them confined. They will do
better in this way, and there will be
no danger of their injuring each
other. Besides they become used to
being handled and are more docile.
They will not forget the first winters

One of the best places to store blan
kets which are not being used is un-
der a mattress which is continually
slept upon, as here they are kept
comparatively well aired, and need
little extra exposure to the fire before
being used.
When it is necessary to clean win
dows in damp weather, use a little
methylated spirit, and you will polish
the windows in half the time, as the
spirit evaporates, and dries the SUI
perfiuous moisture as it goes.
Without care, knives not in use
soon spoil. Keep them in a box in
which sifted quicklime has been
placed. The blades should be cover
ed with this, but it must not touch
the handles, which should be occa
sionally exposed to the air to keep
them from turning yellow.
After flannelette articles have been
washed they should be rinsed in
water in which one ounce of alum or
sal ammonia has been dissolved.
