The Young Physician.
WHAT HIS EXPERIENCE PROVED.

In the early sixties 1t was usually the
duty of a practicing physician to ride
many miles every day on his regular
round of visits upon his patients. In
those days young man who had received
q splendid medical training in one of the
best medical colleges of that day was ac-
customed to ride ten, twenty or thirty
miles or more visiting the sick and
afflicted. His success was soon phenom-
email. Doctors and families called him for
consultation to towns at considerable dis
tances by rail. One of his specialtieS was
the cure of those distressing diseases of
women. He had early discovered that
by combining the vegetable extract of
the following medicinal plants in just the
right proportion without the use of alco-
hobbs prescription invariably cured
such cases. Later, in order to place this
remedy before the public in shape easily
to be procured, he established labora-
tory at Buffalo, n. Y, where regularly
qualified chemists were put in charge to
accurately prepare his prescription and
put it in shape for shipment to all parts
of the United States. This remedy, which
he named DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton, is not q "patent medicine" in the
common acceptance of the term, but
tonic for women, and regular physi-

An Incident In Appie-Se lIinq.

Apple growers frequently are
placed in position where they must
sell their crop at absurdly low fig
ures when the market for apples Is
really good, We have an illustration
Of this in the experience last year
of the apple growers in the Cham.
paign region of New York. The or.
chardists grew large crop and tried
to market 1t. The buyers and pack.
ers got together and held down the
price to $l.25 and 81 per barrel. The
barrels themselves cost 35 to so cents,
leaving small margin per barrel for
the growers. Even at that price the
middlemen refused to take some vari.
cites of winter apples. A good many
growers refused to sell at such a low
figure and kept their apples them.
selves, mourning losses from rotting
and shrinkage. Now they are selling
their apples the best way they can at
about 81 per barrel while just across
the Canadian line the people are pay
ing 81 per barrel and are unable to
get full supply even at that price.
Truly the producers of apples need to
get together and secure for them.

fruit.

Cultivating the Garden.

! am in the list of those that agree
that frequent cultivation of the ground
in summer is good thing. / am very
sure that there is little danger of cul-
tiyating the garden too much. The
cultivation conserves the moisture. All
of our garden vegetables require more
water than we suspect and the amount
that is permitted to escape from the
surface soil is just that amount
wasted.
1t takes three tons of water to
every bushel of potatoes produced, so
the men say that have made a scien.
tific investigation of the matter. That
being the case can we wonder that we
have small crops in the garden when
we not only do not cultivate but do
not even dig out the weeds that are
drawing the nourishment up out OF the
ground with the water that goes into
their roots?
The first object of cultivating the
garden should be the destruction of
weeds, and the next the destruction
of the tops of the capillary tubes by
which the sun and air are constantly
pulling water out of the ground.

England Eating Bananas.

1t may be Americans will not al.
ways get their bananas at as low a
price as they do when they are the
principal consumers. Not till four
years ago did the English begin to i'm.
port bananas Systematically. In 1901
an English firm put on a few steamers
to ply between Jamaica and England.
Now they have seven engaged exclu-
sively in the trade and three more
are building. During the winter
months $4,000 punches of bananas are
imported weekly and in the summer
months the demand is doubled. II liz
estimated that as soon as the new
steamers are in commission ten mil.
lion bananas will be imported into
England weekly. II the Continental
Europeans get to eating bananas like
the Americans the price to the Amer
lean consumer may go up.

In the summer time II Is estimated
that a COW will require about one part

carbohydrates, while In the winter the
carbohydrates should be increased to
SIX parts TO each one of protein. This
is assuming that the ration consist OF
foods that are easily digested: for IL
they are not the use OF energy in di.

A Good Dry Ration.

A farmer says that even a dry
ration may be good ration
for the production of milk. He
submits the following combination as
one of the best that can be fed: CIoy.
er hay, pea meal, wheat bran, ground
oats, and water, the latter to be not
too cold The only weak point In this
ration is the pea meal, which usually
is not obtainable, and when 1t Is OBJ.
tainable is very expensive. To a cas-
ual observer 1t would appear to be
little over-balanced in the direction of
the proteins, none of the elements
containing an overbalance of carbo.
hydrates, while clover hay, pea meal
and bran have each very large pro.
portion Of protein.

Use Of the Mulch.

scores of miles from home, | noticed
good many patches of strawberries
from which the cover had been taken
off and thrown between the rows for
mulching purposes. The uncovered
vines were looking unusually green
and fine and the straw between the
rows being still bright helped to set
them off in delightful contrast, 1t re-
minded me of the fact that the use OF
the mulch is increasing. 1t is appa-
rent that the time of burning old
straw stacks is past. We can use
them for mulch to good advantage at
any time, and when the straw gets
too old for that purpose it can be plow-
ed into the soil or as last resort can
be burned.
was up in Wisconsin last fall and
saw one farm in which potatoes were
being grown under the straw. The
potatoes had been laid in thoroughly

below. suppose the tubers were I'M
