TAWING A SHEEP SKIN.
A Siinpie Operation, But One Requir-
ing Some Care and Thorough
ness in Execution.

Remove all flesh and fat by scraping
with dull knife. To kill the grease i'm
merse the skin in mixture of bran and
water that has been made up for several
hours and kept in warm place where il
could ferment. Allow it to remain in
the solution for "a hours. To clean the
skin and wool dissolve one pound of hard
soap in two quarts of boiling water. Put
one-half of this in tub with four
quarts of cold soft water, and rub the
skin in it until the suds will not take up
any more dirt. Finish the cleansing
with the other half of the first mixture
diluted as before. A little washing blue
to whiten the wool. Passing the skin
through roller wringer will help the
work along. Hang skin in shady place
and when almost dry rub into the flesh
side mixture of powdered alum and
white arsenic-half and half. Fold the
skin, place flesh sides together and lay
away for "a hours. Then spread il out
and allow it to dry gradually. The only
method of softening a skin and making
it pliable is by manipulating it. Rub it
and work it over the edge of a board
each day until it is dry. Don't be afraid
to overwork the hide. The more it is
worked the softer and finer it will be-
come. The wool may be combed out
with coarse comb. The skin may then
be lined with felt or some heavy cloth
and will make serviceable rug if the
work has been we'll done. - Ohio

until the close of the ceremony.
When. she marched past the bier she
lunged for the hat and successfully made

Reckless Feeding of Grain.

Some men never feed grain to their
COWS and some go to the other ex-
treme and feed too much, thus vast
ing high-priced FEED material. Only
the man that is to some extent an ex-
perimenter can tell exactly where the
dividing line between a profitable and
improbable feeding of grain is. It is
now pretty we'll established that the
men that have been feeding from fif-
teen to twenty pounds of grain per
day to their cows have been wasting
a good deal of money. When the
roughage is good hay and silage. from
five to ten pounds of grain per day is
sufficient for all needs in winter, and
half of that quantity will do in sum-
mer. The feeding of too much grain
induces many intestinal diseases and
trouble in cows, just as overlooking 2
human being would do.-Farmers' Re-
view.

PORTABLE SCALE FRAME.

and had it cut in pieces about II inches
long, bolted them to the bottom ends of
the upright and attached the roller to
the bottom just so tn frame would clear
the platform by abouttwo inches. Then
lay three well-seasoned oak planks &c
a track, if they are Obtainable. The
planks should be 3x12. Take the finger
from a bundle carrier of an old binder
and strengthen the point, but leave the
bent ends next to he machine just as
they are Fasten these to the upright
with heavy staples so they will easily
slide up and down. Then bore hole in
the platform to match the ends of these
pieces of iron to hold the frame in place
when on the scale so the stock cannot
roll the frame off, Holes should also be
bored in the outer end of the plank
tracks so the frame can be held in place
when off the scales. l have used
frame of this kind for four years. One
person can push it on and off in one min
ute.

INCREASING THE PROFITS.
It Can Be Done by Giving the Eogs
More Range and Free Access
to Pastures.

A very common practice, and yet
very injurious practice, among farmers
is to confine their swine in close pens,
not allowing them free range and
change of atmosphere. The original
hog had the freedom of the woods,
where he could dig for roots and OBJ
tain other things possessing medicinal
qualities; consequently he was much
healthier, and less liable to cholera
and other contagious diseases. All
animals like a change of diet. This
they can get when allowed a large
pasture to roam over, as there will be
found there so many kinds of weeds
that they will relish, which will great
ly improve the appetite. Notice the
difference between two punches OF
hogs; one which has been closely con
fined, the other which has had plenty
of range and change of sleeping ap-
partments. You will readily notice
the difference in appearance, health,
growth, etc. Another very poor prac
tice is to allow hogs to sleep On piles
6 manure, or around old straw stacks,
and when allowed to do this, ere long
the hogs will show the effects of such
a poor practice-as some will show
signs of poor health and also stunted
condition from over heating and over
laying. Grain being more costly than
the grasses it is therefore a point in
economy to gain as many pounds as
possible by the use of grass. 1t has
been well said that variety is the
spice of life" This is as true of the
life of animals IS of man. Don't feed
those pigs so much grain, give them
such food as will be conducive of more
growth and less flesh. Prepare a pas.
ture especially adapted to the needs
and wants of the pigs, such as
clover peas, rape. etc, and you will
have stronger and better hogs. Hogs
weighing about 200 pounds, we'll fat
tened, are bringing the top of the mar.
ket now. The large coarse hog is nc
longer in such demand; this works a
great saving to the producers. as it is
possible to make market toppers in six
to nine months, so that it is not neces-
sary to winter anything but the brood
sows; spring pigs being marketed in
the fall. In this way, too, they can be
matured at much l.ss cost than those
that have to be wintered before fat.
tening. Think it better plan to give
even those hogs th"t are on full feed
chance to roam some. as they will
not to do this if water is handy to the
feed pen.-Agricultural Epitomist.

u. 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-
ton is Generally Taken.
Hence, Pepsin, Pancreatin and a Host
of other Digestive Remedies
Have Been Invented.
These Remedies Do Not Reach the
Seat Of the Difficulty, Which
is Really catairh.

Tx. U. S. Senator NJ. C. Butler from
- South Carolina, was Senator from
that state for two terms. In a re-
cent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co.,
from Washington, d. c., says:
"Ican recommend Peruna for dys.
pepsia and stomach trouble. have
been using your medicine for q short
period and feel very much relieved.
1t is indeed q WOnder fuI medicine be-
sides a good tonic. "---M. G. Butler.
The only rationalway to cure dyspep-
STA is to remove the catarrh. Peruna
cures catarrh. Peruna does not produce
artificial digestion. 1t cures catarrh and
leaves the stomach to perform digestion
in natural way. This is vastly better
and safer than resorting to artificial
methods or narcotics.
Peruna has cured more cases of dys-
pepsia than all other remedies com
bined, simply because it cures catarrh
wherever located. If catarrh is located
in the head, Peruna cures it. If catarrh
has fastened itself in the throat or
bronchial tubes, Peruna curesit. When
catarrh becomes settled in the stomach,
Peruna cures it, as we'll in this location
as in any other.
Peruna is not simply a remedy for
dyspepsia. Peruna is catarrh remedy.
Peruna cures dyspepsia because it is
generally dependent upon catarrh.

Honesty Finds It's Reward

An Iowa farmer had a COW killed nv
a train on the railroad, says Texas
Stock Journal. He presented his claim
to the company in note. in which he
said: Thirty dollars will be consid-
cred sufficient, as the animal killed
was but common COW, and by no
means the best of my herd" The
claim agent of the road answered the
letter promptly, and inclosed a check
for $500. He wrote the farmer: at
is the first instance since my connec-
.tion with the road that any other than
full-blooded animal of great value
has been killed by our trains, and I in
close 500 as damages, and reward
Tor your honesty, and l would humbly
