Nest BOXES should be put in the most

The earth floor is considered better

Don't have holes in the side of your

This is the season when advice is free

Ten hens are enough for one active

Treating Wrong Disease.

Many times women call on their family
y physicianS, suffering, as they imagine,
Dne from dyspepsia, another from heart
disease, another from liver or kidney
disease, another from nervous exhaustion
xr prostration, another with pain here and
there, and in this way they all present
alike to themselves and their e~aSy-goina
nd Indifferent, or over-buSy doctor, sep
arate and distinct diseases, for which he.
assuming them TO be such, prescribes his
bills and p~otions. In reality, they are all
6nly symptoms caused by some uterine
disease. The physician, ignorant of the
fduSe Of suffering, encourages this prac-
,1ice until large bills are made. The suf-
1ering patient gets no better, but probably
worse, by reason of the delay, wrong
Treatment and consequent complications.
"a proper medicine like DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription, directed to the cause
would have entirely removed the disease,
thereby dispelling all those distressing
Symptoms, and i~nstituting comfort in

well said, that ga disease known Is half
cured."

From the Paclnc Fruit World.

@ NilN 4 atAAiS FAdil q
Some owners of forests OF valuable
woods are trying experiments i'm the
southern part of Mexico with walnut
trees. 1t is not generally known out
side the trade that there are many
kinds of walnut woods and that only
part of them have so far beer consid-
cred valuable from the commercial
point of view. Now the scheme is TO
make. these less valuable or worthless
walnuts commercially valuable. And
the process Is a curious one.
IL consists of opening the roots OF
the trees ana inserting one or more
nuts, which are quite small, from the
best varieties OF walnut trees. 1t is
said that these nuts, which are care
fully sealed in wax or a stiff, water
proof stopper. impart a new or closer
grain and coloring TO the tree.
The Southern Indians of Mexico have
for centuries been in the habit of Sc
curing curious effects in colorfng or
fine woods by inserting in the above
ann nuts of other trees into the
roots Of the living tree. An enterpris-
ing planter IN Tabasco has been fell
lowing out his Indian Idea with curl
Gus results. He mentioned this to 9TH
err haciendados, and now several OF
them are experimenting with the coars-
er kinds OF walnut trees with encour-
aging results.

Thia Custom Is Now General.

It has now become a general and
also a safe rule TO demand brands of
goods that are we'll known and have
q reputation for quality and reliability.

and point out that safety lies in buy
ing the brands that bear their names

HINTS FROM THE HIRED MAN.

The mar who yells at the horses and
jerks them by the bits ought TO be
kicked off the farm.
The best man / ever worked for
taught me the value of reading things
about my work. After | had learned &c
be a pretty good farmer in this way,
he raised my wages, because, he said,
Il don't want to have to teach another
man in your place" No man who is
willing to work full time during the
rush season, who helps the owner 10
plan, shows an interest in his work, and
keeps himSelf clean i'm mind and body
will ever be out of a JOB.
Don't try to drink all the whisky In
town. It's too big a job for any man.

q slave. No fair man will require il.
Give the women folks a lift any time
you can. They Will help TO smooth your
way in return.
Don't be a crank.
Keep your body and clothes clean.
If there is no bath tub in the house
rig up one from a barrel In the barn or
woodshed and buy a dozen bars of soap
and a dozen bath towels. They will
make you glad you are alive after a
hard, hot days work.
BE cheerful. The day viii pass more
quickly If your heart is singing.
Laugh n the world laughs with
YOU" kick and you kick alone.
Don't be afraid to help out in chores
on holidays. Give everybody a little
lift at such times. 1t pays.
The man who brags about the big
things he can do oon becomes the butt
of the neighborhood.
Save a little of your wages every

A LAND OF OPPORTUNITIES.
Inducements Held Out by Western
Canada Are Powerful.


Canada Are Powerful.
A recent number of the Winnipeg
(Manitoba) Free Press contains an ex-
cellent article ON the prospects in West
ern Canada, a portion of which we are
pleased to reproduce.
The agents of the Canadian Govern
ment, located at different centres in the
States, will be pleased to give any fur
Their information as to rates, and how
to reach these lands.
Just now there is a keener interest
than ever before on the part Of the
outside world in regard to the claims
of the Canadian West as a field of set
Element. At no previous time has there
been such q rush of immigration, and
the amount of information distributed
broadcast is unprecedentedly great.
in the majority of the States of the
Union and in Great Britain the Oppor-
tunities for home-making and the
achieving Of even a modest competence
are at the best limited. Moreover, ac-
cording to the social and industrial con-
the future holds out no promise Of bet
ter things. 1t is not strange, then, that
energetic young men should turn their
eyes TO Canada's great wheat belt,
where every man can pursue fortune
without the hindrance of any discour-
aging handicap.
The inducements held out by West
ern Canada are powerful and made
manifest by the great movement now
in progress. That the prospects are
considerably more than reasonably GER
tain is borne out by the history of the
country and its residents. The prom
Use Of gain is powerful, but when added
to il there is the prospect Of 4 CORE
spending, social and civil elevation, it
should prove irresistible to young men
Of a particularly desirable class for
any new country.
The Canadian West is alive with OPP
pO]rtunities for the young man who
aims at becoming more than Il mere
atom in the civil and national fabric.
Some OF the eager young fellows, who
arrive on the p~rairies daily, are des-
tined TO become more than merely pros
porous farmers. In the near future
great municipal and Provincial develop
ment will be in the hands Of the peo-
pie. The stepping stone to both Gnan-
cial prosperity and civil prominence is,
and will be, the farm. For every pro-
fessional opening there are hundreds
Of agricultural openings. The Cana
dian prairies are teeming with oppor-
tunities for the honest and industrious
of all classes, but they are specially
inviting TO the ambitious young man
who seeks a field for the energy and
ability which he feels inherent within
him. The familiar cry of Back to the
soil" is more than a vain sounding
phrase when applied to Western Can
ada"

Our Triumphant Athletes.

From the New NOrk SUN.
For the fourth time since the Olympic
games were revived in 1896 the strong men
of the United States nave %triumphed over
the athletes of the rest of the world. The
games ended yesterday in the Stadium at
Athens and the team that displayed the
shield of this nation for an athletic en-
blem carried off the greater part of the
honors In 1896 at Athens, in 1900 at Paris,
IN 1904 at St. Louis and in 1906 at Athens
once more the United States has been
triumphant. Perhaps it Is cause for regret
that the United States failed 10 carry
away the trophy for the Marathon run
Anyhow, 1t fell TO a neighbor Of ours, as
Herring of the Dominion of Canada was
the fastest man over the historic course.

Too Truthful.

Norman Hapgood, the distinguished
journalist and essayist. was discussing
American newspapers.
1T is not enough that our papers
shall tell the truth" he said. Truth
telling in itself is not particularly wise
nor praiseworthy. Indeed, it is some
thing the reverse.
Thus a young nan called on a young
lady one spring morning very early. He
had his automobile along. He wanted
to give the young lady a morning spin
through the country.
"A little girl, the young lady's niece,
answered the bell.
+" is your auntie in?' said the young
man.
""Yes, sir said the little girl.
That's good. Where is she?' he went
on.

Among this class the symptoms OF
female diseases are early manifest by
weak and aching backs, pain in the

painful and irregular, and frequently
there are faint and dizzy spells, with
