Diseases Cured by Dande-
 lion Tablets and Pills.
Constipation.

Tn constipation the Tablets act as mild cathartic; the Pills are slightly stronger, bat both tablets and pills act upon the mucous membranes of the intestines, therefore their action is absolutely sure and also for this reason they never gripe or cause the least discomfort. They are equally good for children as well as adults, because they are tonic and do not produce any unnatural condition of the bowels.

Stomach Trouble.

The Tablets are the best to use in case of Stomach Trouble which takes the form of Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Sour Stomach, etc., because they tone up the system and stimulate the flow of gastric juice, thus very effectively aiding the digestive organs to perform their proper functions. Their mildly cathartic action also relieves the stomach of all refuse and undigested matter.

Stock in the Orchards.

A correspondent of the Farmers
Review says that one of the greatest
causes of damage to orchards is the
practice of farmers turning their
stock into the orchards. He says that
he has known farms where this did
more damage than all other causes
combined. We believe the conditions
are only occasional in which it is safe
to turn stock into orchards. The
condition where this might be done
wCrld be where the land is so sandy
that II will not pack under the feet of
the animals and the trees are heaced
so high that the animals could not
browse the limbs. But this condition
is met with but rarely and not often
In The middle West. Our prairie soil

with humus and this when wet packs

find bowlder clay. and also in orr roll
ing land that has been timbered with
hardwood we find clay that is very
retentive of moisture and will rack
down as hard as a rock There Is no
surer way of killing tree than by
packing the ground around it.. We

PIGS AS DRAFT ANIMALS

IN many countries and even so near
as Scotland the pig has served the
purpose of a beast of draft, and has
actually been harnessed to the plow in
company with COWS and horses. In
Scotland also early in the last cen
tury pigs were sometimes made to
serve as chargers and proved most
docile mounts.
The homing instinct is strongly de-
veloped in the pig. Instances not in
frequently occur of pigs finding their
way back to farms whence they have
been conveyed. There is record of
two pigs boming nine miles, and cross
ing the Thames to boot, to their old
farm, whence they had been driven
to Reading market and bought by a
local gentleman on the previous day.
