Indigestion Cured.

There is no case of Indigestion,
Dyspepsia or Stomach Trouble that
will not yield to the digestive and
strengthening influence of Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure. This remedy takes
the strain off the stomach by digesting
what you eat and allowing it to rest
until it grows strong again. Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure affords quick and
permanent relief from Indigestion and
all stomach troubles builds up the
system and so puritieS that disease can
not attach and gain a fOothold as
when in weakened condition. The
constantly increasing use of Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure by physicians of
hospital and general practice of
itself tells how this wonderful modern
discovery has proven to be the greatest
digest ant TO" the alienation of a
suffering humanity. Its many cures
of both children and adults grows
larger day by day. Sold by Hanson &

Water and Fat formation.

There is q notion to the effect that
drinking much water makes fat, and
some people that have the tendency to
form fat are cautioned 3 ,ainst the
practice According to all investiga-
tons that have been made the oppo-
site is the case If very wet foods are
given fattening animals and if an ex-
cessive amount of water is drunk, the
fattening process is retarded. On this
account it is never advisable to give
fettening stock salty foods that would
lead to the consumption of very large
amount of water Or to keep them in a
high temperature. which also has the
effect of making them drink more
water than is needed for the assimila-
tion of food. When animals are in
high temperature the drinking of wa
ter is a provision of nature to keep
down the temperature of the body to
it's normal point. Precipitation is the
process of working off the surplus
heat, which, if left in the body, would
result in heat prostration. lie ami
NAL should drink enough water to en-
able it to properly assimilate its
food.

Why British Stocks Excel.


The climatic conditions of Great
Britain, in the estimation of their
people, are admirably suited to the
production of first-class livestock. Be
ing a comparatively small country and
totally surrounded by water, the con-
ditions are fairly favorable for a
rather uniform temperature. This is
especially true of the greater part of
England. In Scotland, especially the
northern part, the winters are cold.
but the summers are also cool, thus
excellent for grazing purposes, as the
animals are neither troubled with a
hot sun nor with insect pests. The
~+fn.asnhera- as a rule, contains a
great deal Or--nO1sturc, -wnICn,--i-
claimed to have very beneficial in
fiuence on the coat of hair, inducing a
heavy growth of fine messy hair,
which adds to the general appearance
of certain breeds of animals. And,
lastly, there is another feature which
must be considered in this connection.
The farmers in all parts of Great
Iritain are almost obliged to follow
some phase Of livestock farming as a
means of livelihood. Thus, with their
small farms and high rents to pay,
the pure-bred animals. especially those
Of high individual excellence and merit
have invariably proven to be the most

Size of Feeding Herds.

The University of Illinois sent out a
query as to size of herds Of cattle be-
ing fed for market. AS to the replies
the report says: OF AIT feeders who
answer this question, about one-third
feed from % to so head in one yard,
and one-third from so to 100; of the
remainder, about one-half keep less
than rs and one-half more than 100
head in one yard. 1t should be added
that the replies in most cases CORE
spond to the total number of cattle
handled by the correspondent. That
is to say, as a rule all the cattle are
fed in one yard, and the exceptional
instances are those in which more
than 100 cattle are fed, in which case
the number recommended is usually
100 head or less. One of the most
successful cattle feeders in Illinois
reports that two carloads should be
the maximum number fed in one lot.
and that one load is preferable, his
thought being that cattle are more
quiet in small numbers and in uniform
grades.

STOCK
Four Points in stockbreedino

Four Points in Stockbreeding.
A noted breeder of live stock de-
clares that there a1t four features of
the live stock BUSINESS that should re-
ceive the attention of breeders, name
ly, environment, continuity, utility'and
crossing. Too mary lose sight of en-
vironment, catch sight OF something
that pleases them and launch out on
series of breeding episodes. The
advice to select the breed you are
most in love with is not a good one
for it often happens that the breed
you like is lily adapted to any certain
location.
The matter of continuity is one that
is not noticed on this side of the
water, but is kept in sight by the
British breeder. He first finds out
what his environments are and selects
his breed of stock to fit it, and then
keeps on breeding in the same general
way, and passes his process On to his
sons and his grandsons. In England
it is not uncommon to find farm
on which one kind of sheep has been
bred for century, and what is true
of sheep is also true of other stock.
Utility is point that should not be
lost sight of but should be kept before
the breeder as the main thing he is
working for. In the matter of sheep
breeding the work is to get an animal
that will give the greatest amount OF
high-priced mutton and the most pos
sible of the highest priced wool, TAX
ing into consideration the kind of
food furnished and the care necessary.
Crossing is matter that should be
given more weight than it receives.
One cross, that of good ewes of one
breed with a good ram Of another
breed, to get lambs for market, is the
only kind of crossing that should be
done. The mistake is made of con-
tinuing the mongrel breed, using the
progeny of the first Gloss not for mar
ket mutton but for breeders. The re-
suits can never be good in the long
run. The only advantage of the cross
is to get lambs with excellent feeding
qualities. Harry Osborne.
