GAR DEN TALK

There is many a farmer who plants
his scores or hundreds of acres to
wheat, corn and cotton who actually
begrudges the use Of half acre for
a kitchen garden, yet that half acre,
or even quarter acre, gives better re-
turns than any equal area on the farm.
Too often the garden is the most
neglected spot on the place. Good re-
suits cannot be expected from meager
feeding and slovenly cultivation.
With much garden work 1t is now
or never" The gardener who enters
the tag end of the procession is likely
to remain there.
The kitchen garden will take all that
we have to give. 1t has a place for
all the ashes, the yard sweepings,
leaves, wood pile trash, solid and liquid
refreshments and commercial fertili-
zers. Its nav is truly Unsuitable.
Hire a little extra labor Qf you can
find IT. and get ahead Of the game for
once, at least.
Those who snake garden generally
grow only the commoner and most
easily raised vegetables because Of the
popular notion that choice kinds can
only be raised by market gardeners
with hotbeds and greenhouses. This
is not always a right conclusion. Try
a few of the finer things.

For people who are rundown and nerv-

Nearly forty years ago, DR.. R.V. Pierce,
now consulting physician to the lnvallds
Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo,
N. Y. discovered that by scientifically
extracting and combining certain medici-
nal principles from native roots, taken
from our American forests, he could pro-
duce a medicine which was marvelousiy
efficient in curing cases OF blood disorder
and liver and stomach trouble as well as
many other chronic, or lingering all
ments. This concentrated extract OF
Natures vitality he named TGolden Med
ical Discovery 1t purifies the blood by
putting the stomach and liver into
healthy condition, thereby helping the
digestion and assimilation of food which
feeds the blood. Thereby it cures weak
stomach, indigestion, torpid liver, or bill
iousness, and kindred arrangements:
II you have coated tongue, with bitter
or bad taste in the morning, frequent
headaches, feel weak, easily tired, stitches
or pain in side, back gives out easily and
aches, belching Of gas, constipation, or
irregular bowels, feel flashes of heat al
ternating with chilly sensations or kim
dred symptoms, they point to derange-
ment Of your stomach, liver and kidneys,
which the Golden Medical Discovery
will correct more speedily and perma-
nently than any other known agent. Con-

Feed lis High, but So Are MILK and
Butter.
Keep the cow up in flesh, up in spirit,
up In production. Feed is high, but so
are milk and butter Hay Is not high
in price now, neither is the corn stover,
and the sllage Is In the silo at prime
cost. Good silage, good clover or mix
ed hay, comfortable quarters, clean wa
ter and generous, particular care are
starting factors in the balanced ration.
These are generally capable of being
profitably REINFORCED by good CONNER
cial feeds in reasonable quantities, but
the former are the elements that de-
termine profit.
1t Is not wise feeding, of course, to
make cow fat, nor If she be good
dairy cow with enough protein in her
feed is it easy to do. 1t is certainly
the greatest unwisdom In feeding to
allow the COW to grow poor, so that her
vitality is lowered and her production
restricted.
Good condition of flesh, the best In
dication of ability to do profitable
work, can usually, with proper atten-
ton being given it, be secured by the
intelligent feeding Of the rough prod
ucts of the farm. These should Of
course be carefully harvested and hous-
ed and fed in the most appetizing con-
dition. How much vitality one COW
more than another puts into her milk
don't know, but 1 do know that out
of her vitality comes her milk. Keep
up her supply.-W. F. McSparran IN

Brush Cleaners.

There is no worse animal to put into
an orchard than the goat, because he
is n browSer OF the truest type, but
for preparing brush or timbered land
that Is to be put into orchard or any
kind of fruit he has no equal. The
Angora may be the most profitable to
keep, but any kind Of scrub goat will
eat brush and weeds, and this is the
desirable point for the man that wants
his land cleaned of all woody growth.

WHITE PINE.
Natural Replacement ON Old Fields
In New England.

Natural Replacement on Old Fields
In New England.
BY s. N. SPRING.
The increasing use and value OF Sec
ond growth white pine have caused
considerable interest to be taken In its
rate of growth and reproduction.
Many persons In New England who
are familiar with past conditions can
recall the time when land which today
has valuable pine upon 1t was under
cultivation or in use as pasture. When
such lots are cut, however, trees Of
little value frequently replace the pine
growth, so that white pine in New
England is threatened with extermina-
ton. To insure It's perpetuation prac-
teal methods for its renewal must be
employed at once.
Pine Extending Itself.
Many fields and pastures covered at
present by seeding and sapling stands
give evidence that the white pine Is
still extending itself. This extension
depends principally upon the presence
of seed trees. The merchantable stands
are being rapidly removed on account
Of the large consumption Of pine by
certain industries The common meth
cd Of numbering these pine lots leaves
no seed trees to provide for future
stands.
The replacement of white pine can
be assured by leaving seed trees on
each lot when it is cut. If the prac-
tice becomes general, the number of
stands of merchantable pine in New
England will be greater fifty years
hence than it is today, and the quality
Of their timber will be better.

Pine Extending Itself.
Wanted, q Key.

Continental Europe would afford a
vast outlet for the very class of meats
most difficult to find a market for In
Britain or America, if a key to unlock
the doors could in any way be found.
The common people there are prac-
tically without beef at all times. Horse
meat is in frequent evidence. They
would feast upon grades and cuts Of
beef which we are too fastidious to
buy. And as for hams, bacon, sau-
sage, lard, etc, the product Of literally
millions of corn fed hogs could be mar
keted in France, Germany and contg-
uous countries if a way could be found
through the custom house. = Ohio

At a French wedding.

A wedding feast is an important
ceremony in France among all classes
of society. Even among the very poor
est of the Parisians wedding banquet
is the occasion for a reckless expendi-
ture of money in the purchase of wine
and viands. In Brittany wedding Is
even a more gorgeous affair than in
Paris. At recent wedding ceremony
in Brittany the guests numbered 1,20O,
and three bullocks were slaughtered
to provide them with meat. Wine was
consumed in large quantities, and In
addition forty barrels of cider was con-
sumed.

stock farming, but 1t Is unique, per-

Behind each row of COWS is gutter
eighteen inches wide and seven inches
deep. These cutters have an outlet.
They are thoroughly cleaned daily.
The whole barn is disinfected twice a
week by the free use of creolin, and
the interior is frequently whitewashed.
When cleaned, the cutters are sprin-
kled with dry ashes or dry dirt to abb

During the day n quantity of absorb

etc, is placed in them. Each gutter

In the spring there is almost always
more or less trouble with the udders
of cows. The best way to avoid this Is
to feed no heavy rations for few
weeks before they begin to give milk.
Then wheat bran should be about the
only grain ration. If the bag becomes
caked, rub it often with quite warm
water. If very bad, drop little CAM
phor into the water. Vaseline is also
very good. But keep the rubbing up
till all the punches are gone.-Dr. Mich

our town, than anything which has ever
happened here, occurred last Wednes-
day afternoon, about 2:30 o'clock, in
the rear engine room of the big mill of
the r.. C. Stone Milling Co., located a
few rods south of the depot, in which
Felix G.. Prater, one of the best men
tendent of the Stone Milling Co., was
almost instantly killed.
The facts in the case are about as fol-
lows: "A Mr.. Thompson OF Springfield,
had been engaged to overhaul and re-
pair a small engine, and was engaged
at the time in boring out cylinder of
the engine, which was situated in the
rear engine room, about three feet
west of the shaft which runs the eleva-
tor. Mr.. Prater stepped in the room
to see how the repairs were progress
ing, and approached the engine from
the west. He stepped around the en-
CINE between the small space between
it and the perfectly smooth shaft, to
see how the men were adjusting the
boring bars. He was standing with his
back to the shaft and which was revolv-
ing at the rate of POO revolutions to the
minute, and while standing there look
ing at the engine by some unaccounta'
able and uneXplainable way, the tail
of his coat caught and wound round
the rapidly revolving shaft, and in the
twinkling of an eye he was drawn to
the shaft, and was hurled round and
round until the engines were stopped
by engineer Gamble, who, at that mo-
ment, was standing near the throttle
of the big engine: the engineer said he
heard an unusual noise and at about
the same moment received warning
from Mr. Thompson to stop the engine
at once. We are informed, that the
engines were stopped in about three
quarters of minute, after Mr.. Prater
was caught by the shaft Engineer
bdIu Dle, OllpdIileu ny Iloau Nhlii
Robert Laughlin and Frank O'Dell,
after shutting down the engines, ran
around to where Mr. Prater was, and
was the first one to reach the unfOr-
tunate man. They found Mr.. Prater in
an attitude of sitting position. and as
Mr.. Gamble approached him, he turn
ed his head slightly. Mr.. Gamble ran
for more help, and when he returned
several Of the employees were with
him. Mr.. Prater was still alive. A
number of the men picked him up ten
derby and carried him into the main
engine room. In the meantime, Drs.
Beal, Dorrell and French had arrived,
and after an examination, each declar-
ed that death was only few minutes
away. Every effort was made to re-
lieve the unfortunate man, but he died
within fifteen minutes after the acct
dent.
After the body had been dressed it
was placed in a metallic casket, and re-
