Younu TURKEYS.

After young turkeys are three
months old they are very hardy, and
can stand exposure and other draw
backs well. 1t is the first 10 weeks
of their existence that the farmer
finds his loss greatest, and a great
many of young turkeys seem to die,
or disappear, from some unknown
cause, but as rule, the mortality is
due to dampness and to the large
lice on their heads. 1t is unwise to
turn them out to roost In the trees
after they become feathered, as is of
ten done, for they are thus exposed to
raias and drafts. An open shed is an
excellent protection for them. They
should not be allowed to wander off
to be destroyed by foxes or other ene-
mics, but should be looked after care
fully, as they will bring a good price
in market when fully matured.

"In the one month that he has eaten
Grape-Nuts he has gained 10 pounds

What Do We DRINK

In an article of Coffee Graft" in
the Technical World Magazine Albert
f. CAM says;
According to United States statis-
tics there were imported into the
United States in the six years 1897
TO 1902. both inclusive, 5173 3-4 mil
lions of pounds of coffee, of which Bra
zil alone sent lis 1898 millions, that is
little over 75 percent of the total
importation. During the same six
years we received from Arabia laden,
Masterson, u. S. consul }, 19,500,000
pounds of Mocha" and from the
Dutch and British East Indies, as
well as from the Netherlands, there
came 1l7,500,000 pounds Of Java
so that of Java and Mocha" we ac-
tually had in those six years a lit
tie over 100000 of pounds.
Java and Mocha" is the most popu.
lar brand of coffee in the United
States. It is perfectly safe to say that
the grocers of the country sold the
people of this country during the six
years mentioned a minimum of $500
millions of pounds of Java and Mo-
cha," in spite Of the inconvertible
fact that we had but 137,000.000
pounds of that commodity at our dis
posal.

white beds are women and girls who
nre awaiting or recovering from opera
tions made necessary by neglect.
Every one of these patients had
plenty OF warning in that bearing down
feeling, pain at the left or right Of the
womb, nervous exhaustion, pain in tho
small of the back, leucorrh9a, dizzi.
ness, fiatulency. displacements of the
womb or irregularities. All of these
symptoms are indications of an un.
healthy condition of the ovaries or
womb, and il not needed the trouble
will make headway until the penalty
has to be paid by dangerous opera
ton, and lifetime of impaired useful-
ness at best, while in many cases the
results are fatal.
The following letter should bring
hope to suffering women. Miss Luella
Adams of the Colonnade Hotel, Seattle,
Wash, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
"About two years ago was great suf.
ferer from severe female trouble, pains and
headaches Thedoctor prescribed for me and

an aunt in the New England States, and she
advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound, as it was said to cure tu-
mors. / did so and Immediately began to
improve in health, and was entirely cured,
the tumor disappearing entirely, without an
operation wish every suffering woman
would try this great preparation"
Just as surely as Miss Adams was
cured of the troubles enumerated in
her letter, just so surely will Lydia e.

ing one Kirkman, Scoto-Hiberian OF
Ulster Irishman, whose portrait may
still be seen in the palace at Chariot

posterous brigade Of giants. which
had cost the Prussian State about as
much as all the rest Of its army.

Strong Constitutions.

Strong constitutions in all animals
are necessary to the hardness Of
those animals. Whether they are
show animals being fatted for the
show ring or breeding animals on the
farm or in the feed lot to be sold
to the butchers, says Blooded Stock.
To be the most profitable they must
have strong constitutions.
In sheep that have strong consti-
tutions we expect that its chest shall
he wide and deep that its body shall
be long, that its ribs be well sprung
and no falling away just back of the
shoulders.
But no matter how strong a sleeps
heart, lungs and digestive organs may
be, if he has not plenty of room for
the free and proper action of them, he
cannot give the best results in the
feed lot.
We also look for many other char.
acteristics, such as large nostrils, in
dicating strong lungs. A bright eye
and bold walk, indicating life and
activity. A large mouth is usually
found with strong vital organs.
When selecting sheep for breeders
it will be well to select sheep with
the characteristics just spoken of, as
the lambs from strong constitutional
parents are more likely to be large,
lusty fellows, full of vim and vigor,
that will develop into good strong CON
stitutioned sheep.
Sheep with poor constitutions as a
rule readily succumb to any disease
that may be prevalent, or if they do
not they just drag along, an eyesore
to good flock, and the poorest of the
poor flock; it neither responds to med
cine or good feed and care, and is of
little value wherever he may be. We
might say get a strong constitution
and>then as good an individual as pos
sible.

running in this port are afflicted with
new disease, which for want of bet

for the same in market. Inc expert
ments as whole show very strikingly
the high value of corn and its by
products-gluten meal and feed-for
fattening cattle for the market. .-e
average net profit per steer from 81
days feeding was, on corn alone,
S14.49: corn and grass, $14.97; corn
and dried blood, $l5.36; corn and glu-
ten feed, s17.6O; corn and gluten meal,
$3.50. The lowest profits ere real
lied in the case of corn, and certain
proprietary stock foods, due to the
fact that the market price of the lat
ter was very high as compared with
the actual amounts of nutritive ma
terial which they contain. 1t would
appear that with corn at from so to
60 cents per bushel and fat steers
bringing from 81 to s765 per hun
dredweight there is no more profit
able use to be made of corn than to
convert it into beef.
