Loss in Cured Fodder.

It has been found at the Ontario
Experiment Station that the smallest
necessary loss in curing occurs when
the corn is fairly we'll matured and
well cared, and contains not less than
80 to 50 per cent of dry matter. For
clover the results indicate that % to
80 per cent of dry matter is better than
a lower Or higher per cent. Corn well
matured and just in the glazing stage
with the leaves still green is in the
proper condition for the Silo, and
clover in full bloom, Or trifie past
and in good condition for hay, but
not too dry, is the proper stage for
this.

The Boy on the Farm.


Have you got a boy? Does he get
up early, milk COWS, feed team, cat
tie and pigs? Does he take the team
and plow or drag, or rake, or NOW all
day? What are you doing for him?
Do you give him anything at all except
his board and clothes and little
schooling In winter? What induce
ment do you offer him to stay with
you and help you on the farm?
Suppose that instead Of enforcing
your legal claims to his services until
he is Of age, and thus disgusting him
with farm life, and paving the way to-
ward an unloved, neglected old age for
yourself, you do the fair thing by this
boy. Give him something for his own
let him be earning and saving little
money. Don't deny him the oppor-
tunity Of an education if he desires
one for an ignorant man is surely go
ing to be placed at a fearful disad
vantage in the coming years; give
him the best team and the best tools
to work with and encourage him by
kind appreciation. The reason SO many
boys leave the farm Disguised is be-
cause they are treated like little slaves
by selfish, avaricious parents. You
can treat a boy like a horse, or an
OK, but the horse OF OK will not run
off, and the boys can and will, and we
don't blame them.-Home Monthly.

Mr.. HAYDEN'S VIEWS
GIVES HIS OPINION OF THE BEST
TREATMENT FOB PARALYSIS.
Declares That DR.. Williams Pink Pills
Restored the Use of His LimbnsWhen
All Other Remedies Failed

Declares That DR.. Williams" Pink Pill,
Restored the Use of His Limbs; when
All Other Remedies Failed.
The premonitory symptoms Of paraly-
sis..are trembling Of the hands; sudden
loss of power in arms or legs, frequently
affecting one whole side Of the body; stag
gering; partial or entire inability to use
the fingers distortion Of the features,
sometimes an uncomfortable quivering
Of the chin; severe pains; difficulty in
speech. Frequently the first warning is
vague feeling Of headache, vertigo and
muscular weakness.
In a recent interview Mr.. w. J. L.
Hayden said: ct truly think that Dr.
Williams Pink Pills are great medi-
cine for they cured me when physicians
and other remedies had failed to give
me the slightest relief. Too close at
tention to business brought on an attack
Of nervousness which finally developed
into paralysis. There were times when
it was impossible for me to move my
hands or to get up from chair. At
other times had partial control of my
limbs, but was afraid to go far from
the house for fear I might suddenly be-
come helpless and have to be carried
home.
sWhile was in. this miserable con-
dition, I was stricken with malariaI fever
and confined to bed for four months.
III I the best physicians, but while they
relieved my fever, their treatment did
not entirely drive the malaria from my
system, and they did not help my par
alysis i'll the least.
81 was we'll nigh despairing when a
friend persuaded me to try Dr.. Williams
Pink Pills When I had finished one box
I could see results that encouraged me
My condition kept steadily improving,
and when had taken seven boxes was
cured of paralysis and the malaria was
completely driven out of my system.
For two years now I have enjoyed the
best OF health and have attended to bus
mess without any interruption.
Mr. Hayden's home is at No. 252 West
39th street, New York. DR.. Williams
Pink Pills have cured many similar cases
Of paralysis, also locomotor ataxia. They
are sold by all druggists. A treatment
SO simple, inexpensive and successful
should be tried by every sufferer from
partial paralysis i'll any of it's stages.

Egg Facts.


In order to furnish more definite in
formation about the poultry business
Secretary Wilson recently directed one
Of his men to get together all the facts
available regarding the subject. The
results Of this inquiry present some
surprising facts. According to the
latest available tables, the value Of all
fowls On farms is $50, 794,0 900. About
100000 is deducted from this SUM
to represent the fowls under the age
of three months, SO that the balance
embraces the stock that is kept for
breeding and laying. The estimated
number of chickens in the country is
250,00O,O00, producing for market in
one year poultry worth $136, 900, 900

Short Suggestions.

To clean dshy frying pan fill with
cold water and place on the fire to
boil. When boiling, put red-hot Gin
der in, then wash in the usual way.
When it is necessary to pour boiling
water into a tumbler Or glass cup,
put in a teaspoonful first and there
will be no danger of the glass crack
ing
If a chimney catch fire run to the
salt box and empty it out on the
flames. They will be reduced as if by
magic, and then further steps can be
taken to extinguish them.
Horseradish for sauce should be
dried whole in slow oven, and then
rubbed on a crater kept for that spe-
cial purpose. Prepared in this way
the sauce is always smooth and good.
Tar stains should be rubbed with
paraffin and paint stains with parafin
or turpentine.
To dissolve gelatin it is best to
break it up small and soak in cold
water for two Or three hours Then
stand the basin containing it over
saucepan Of boiling water and stir it
till dissolved.

Sheep Notes.


Feed only what the sheep will eat
up clean.
Divide the flock according to age,
size and sex.
Arrange to afford the ewes plenty OF
opportunity to exercise.
Feed the fleece and at the same time
feed the body which is to produce it,
The foods which conduce most to
bodily growth will make the best wool
Don't buy ram unless he has q
good length Of wool on his belly and
legs.
In order to get a good fleece the
sheep must be kept in a vigorous con
dition.
A well-growing and vigorous condt
ton in the sheep is best for wool
growing.
Sheep are rustlers, cleaners, scaven.
gers and quarterly dividend payers, fol
they give you wool, lambs and NUT
ton.
