Gratitude Well Expressed.

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, Aug. 14th.-
Mr., c. l.. Smith, painter and decora-
tor whose home is at 800 Anne street,
this city, makes the following state
ment:
Il was laid up with some kind of
pains. Some said it was Lumbago,
other Sciatica and others again Rheu-
matism. A few of my. friends sug-
gested that it was lead poison, but
whatever it was it gave me a great
deal OF pain; in fact, almost complete-
ly crippled me. l had to use two
canes to walk about, and even then 1t
was very painful task.
"A friend advised me to try Dodd's
Kidney Pills and | began the treat
ment After had used the first box |
was able TO throw away one of the
canes and was considerably improved.
The second box Strengthened me up so
that | could go about free from pain
without any assistance, and very soon
after | was completely cured, well and
happy, without pain or an ache.
Dodd's Kidney Pills seemed to go
right to the spot in my case and they
will always have my greatest praise"

On a Small Gravestone

Lieutenant Governor Bruce of New
York says a small headstone in a
cemetery in the western part of the
state is pointed out to visitors as one
OF the sights, over the grave of a
wldower who, while not lacking in
love for the departed one, was pc
nurious to degree. He ordered a
small stone because it was cheap, and
told the mason to engrave on it this
inscriptions: Sarah Hackett. Aged
Ninety Years. Lord, She Was Thine"
The stonecutter said there was too
much inscription for so small sur
face. but was told to go ahead and
squeeze it on somehow" Here is the
inscription as squeezed" Sarah
Hackett. Aged 90. Lord, She Was
Thin"

Sheep and Weeds.

Some Of the ragged farms we
see about us would be improved
by the keeping of sheep. Even
II the sheep were turned into
the grain field after the harvest the
work OF weed destruction would be a
valuable one. This supposes of course
that the fields and pastures are prop
erly fenced. Weeds are a great pest
in the grain fields, though this is not
recognized, as the grain overtops
the weeds. II is asserted that one.
fourth Of all the plant food In our
grain fields goes to feed weeds and not
the grain. Sheep will eat almost all
kinds OF weeds that grow on our
farmA

Milk Powder.

we are hearing great deal
about milk powder and milk pow.
der factories. One would think
that someone had stock to sell by the
number of notices appearing in the
press OF the country relative to the
milk powders and the places where
they are made. 1t is just as well to go
little slow in accepting as great
boon the advent of the dried milk en-
terprises, The Dried Milk Company
of England has just sent out its first
report, which shows a deficit of $751;
300 In fifteen months. The people
that have invested in stock there are
said to feel very uncomfortable about
the safety Of their investments.

City Attorney II. III. Keith of Sioux
Falls, S. d., bought can of prepared
smoked beef at local store and upon
opening 1t at her home was surprised
to find in the can small stone of re-
markable brilliancy. The find" was
taken to jeweler, VINO pronounced il
a genuine diamond, worth about 500.
How the diamond got into the can OF
beef is mystery.

MISCELLANY
Humus in Orchard Soils


The soil Of the orchard frequently
becomes exhausted without the owner
suspecting 1t. In many orchards the
grass Is moved and made into hay.
This removes annually a certain
amount OF humus from the ground. In
the meantime the trees themselves are
removing humus by their roots and
putting 1t into fruit and foliage. The
iruit Is carted away, and the leaves fall
TO the ground. These leaves do not
get back into the ground to form hui
mus, as they would in a state OF ma
ture, but are driven by the wind into
windrows and then raked up and
burned by the orchardist, intent upon
improving the appearance Of his orch.
ard, or OF destroying the insects and
Iungi that are on the leaves and twigs
mingled with them. Under modern
orcharding these processes cannot be
changed. The supply of humus. how.
ever must be kept up, and there is
no other way Of doing this than by
piowing in large quantities of farm
yard manure, or of growing legumi.
nous crops to be turned under. All
these are commended for the use OF
the orchardist whose orchard gives
signs OF failing in productiveness. or
OF becoming more subject to drouth.
Inc less humus there is in the soil.
the more quickly does it harden during
the dry spell. The more humus there
Is in the soil, the more mellow is it
and the easier does it resist drouth.

Show Cows.

A dairyman well says that there
are SHOW cows and there are
real mixers and sometimes the
SHOW COW carries off thS prize when
she Is really inferior to the other COW.
"A snow COW may be really good COW,
but sometimes she is of only moderate
quality. The show COW has n soft
skin, proving that she has had the
proper amount of protein in her feed:
she has silky hair and big udder.
The big udder indicates that she gives
a lot OF milk, at least at times, but
IL does not prove that she gives milk
ten months in the year. We have
known COWS of that class that gave
milk for not more than six months.
The man that pays big price for a
COW simply because she is a show COW
and has won prizes frequently makes
a mistake unless he wants to purchase
her for the raising of more show
cows.
