THE BRIGHT SIDE

of life. 1t is a feeling common
to the majority of us that we
do not get quite the amount of
happiness we are entitled to.
Among the countless things
which tend to make us more or
less miserable i'll health takes
first place. Hannah More said
that sin was generally to be at
tributed to biliousness. No doubt
a crippled liver with the result
ing impure blood, is the cause of
more mental gloom than any
other single thing. And who
can reckon up the fearful aggre-
gate of pain, loss and fear "a
rising from the many diseases
which are familiar to mankind;
like vast cloud it hangs over
a multitude no one can number.
You can see these people every
where. For them life can scarce
ly be said to have any "bright
side" at all. Hence the eager
ness with which they search for
relief and cure. Remedies like
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
have not attained their high po-
sition in the confidence of the
people by bald assertions and
boasting advertisements. They
are obliged to win it by doing
actually what is claimed for them.
That this remedy deserves it's
reputation is conceded. 1t is
palatable as honey and contains
the nutritive and curative prop
critics of Pure Cod Liver Oil,
combined with the Compound
Syrup of Hypophosphites, Ex-
tracts Of Malt and Wild Cherry.
Nothing has such a record of
success in Scrofula, Influenza,
Throat and Lung Troubles, and
emaciating complaints and dis
orders that tend to undermine
the foundations of strength and
vigour. It's use helps to show
life's brighter side. Professor
Reddy, of Canada, says: "I have
much pleasure in stating that /
have used it in cases of debility
and found it to be a very valu-
able gemedy as well as pleasing
to take" You cannot be disap-
pointed in it. Sold by chemists.

Many man can find very inter-
esting object lesson in the unproductive
acres ON his farm. Nearly every man
will find that he has more or less acres
which produce little or nothing year
after year and that the burden Of crop
production on his farm is confined to
only part Of his land. These unprofit-
able acres may be marsh and should be
tile drained, or they may be brush
acres, when the brush should be re-
moved and chance given for the
grass to grow and make pasture, or
they may be hillsides too steep for cul-
tivation and should be set to growing
trees.

est ease. 1t suggested very useful

put, for If they do not form a support
for grapes they are sure to carry creep

A Montana stockman related to US
recently some Of the troubles which be-
set his business. He said that four
years ago he made a shipment of 100
horses intended for an eastern market,
that the road which accepted the con-
signment kept these horses for 107
hours without water during the heat Of
August weather and that when they
were unloaded and watered 365 of
them died inside Of thirty minutes,
while the rest were utterly ruined. A
suit is pending to recover the value Of
the horses, which were simply slaugh-
tered by the company in direct viola
tion Of the law which requires stock to
be unloaded, fed and watered every
twenty eight hours.

Not all countries are so favored, but
1t is a fact that there are parts of flli-
nois and Iowa where sixty bushels Of
corn may be found growing to the acre
and down a hundred feet miners are

The great advantage which the town
boy has over the city boy lies in the
fact that he is taught to work just as
soon as he is able, and this is kind of
education which has much to do with
making a man of him. The city boy
learns to loaf instead of learning how
to work, and it is this sort of educa-
ton which so often proves the undoing
Of him.

We stood as near to the track as we
dared the other day and watched the
passing of fast mail train-four mail
cars trailing behind one Of these mod
ern fast engines, eating up a mile Of
track every minute and leaving trail
of black smoke and newspapers be-
hind 1t. 1t is probable that nothing
which the inventive genius of man has
evolved so well represents the triumph
Of modern civilization as this fast mail
train. A few tons of cheap soft coal,
water which Is as plentiful as air,
mechanism of a marvellous sort in
steel, a Vulcan to feed the greedy
demon and a man with nerve Of still
finer steel to guide it. Up and down
the grades, Indifferent to the winds
and the storms, never hating on its
wild chase, it makes the west mere
suburb Of the great city Of the lakes.
Hats Off to the fast mail!

We want to say word about buying
seed corn away from home. None
Of our cereal grains is as respon-
sive to the question of latitude
as corn. Differently from wheat or
oats, 1t adapts itself to different de-
grees of latitude by enlarging or con-
tracing its growth and development.
The farther south 1t is grown the longer
the season will it take to mature and
the taller will the stalk grow, while
the farther north 1t is grown the small
er and shorter will be the stalk and
ear until we reach point of north lat
itude where, If planted, 1t will only
produce little scrubby fodder and no
ear at all. Now, there Is constant
temptation for the corn grower Of
the north country to be trying to grow
the corn Of the south country, and we
have never yet known anything but
failure to result from the experiment;
therefore 1t is all right to get seed
corn from the country north Of you and
hardly ever right to get it from that
south Of you, and right here we will
say that even so small a distance as
$50 miles Of latitude will often make
the difference between a well matured
crop and one Of soft ears. Usually a
type Of corn which has done well in
any locality is the best type to select
seed from, for 1t is sure that more
improvement can be made in this crop
by selection from corn well adapted to
its environment than by the importa-
ton Of any new varieties from other
sections Of the country.

Poorly built haystacks appeal on
nearly every farm for better knowl-
edge Of how to build a good haystack.
This seems to be almost lost art.
A case is this where man had fifteen
acres Of as fine clover hay as we ever
saw cut. There was none too much
hay to make one good stack, but he
put the crop in seven stacks scattered
all over the field. Moreover, he built
them broad and low and topped them
off fat. OF course we can all guess
just what happened-the rains came
and wet the stacks from top to bottom
and just about spoiled the crop. This
crop should have been all put into one
stack, should have been built high and
well topped out with wild hay. Then
this man would have had stack Of
fine hay next winter. With the mod
ern hay derrick and hayfork there is
absolutely no excuse whatever for this
sort Of work.

For all of the country north Of the
fortieth degree of latitude Oct. 10
should be adopted as "seed corn day."
the day especially set apart to go into
the fields and secure the supply of
seed corn needed for planting for the
next year. On this day the corn
should be gathered and hung up to
dry and when dry be placed in either
attic or cellar, where frost will never
reach it during the winter This day
could well be made a farm holiday
and all hands, father, mother, children
and hired men, all contribute to the
doing of this one Of the most important
things connected with farming in the
great corn belt. Remember the date,

worry about poor seed corn next May,

stand Of corn or worse.

would tile drain all the wet spots, get
forty acres into clover just as soon as
possible and would SOW twenty acres
of clover each year thereafter; would
sell no grain or hay from the farm, but
instead feed it all out and buy some be-
sides, and just give the COW, the steer,

A pretty good and up to date farmer
made this complaint to us the last of
August: He said that he had joined
thrashing circuit with lot of his
neighbors that he was well down on
the list; that his grain was getting
badly bleached with the rains which
greatly hindered the work Of the ma
chine; that his two three-horse teams
were standing idle in the barn when
they ought to be at work doing the fall
blowing; that the weeds were making
a great growth in his stubble fields and
needed turning under the worst way;
that the little he saved in labor In the
matter Of thrashing from the shock, in
stead Of stacking the grain, was mere
bagatelle compared with the loss which
he sustained in other ways. He has
got his eyes open and won't get caught
this way any more. There Is only just
one man who can afford to thrash from
the shock, and that Is the renter who
must get his grain on the market as
quickly as possible.
