Whose Say-so Is Best?

With nearly all medicines put up for
SALE through druggists, one has to take
the maifer's say-so alone as to their cura-
} tive value. OF course, such testimony is
not that Of a diSinterested party and
accordingly is not TO be given the same
credit as Il written from disinterested
motives. DR.. Plerce's medicines, how
ever, form a single and therefore striking
exception to this rule. Their claims to
the confidence OF invalidS does not rest
solely upon their makers say so or
praise. Their ingredients are matters of
public knowledge, being printed on each
separate bottle wrapper. Thus invalid
sufferers are taken into DIR. Pierce's full
confidence. Scores of leading medical
men have written enough to fiji volumes
In praise Of the curative value OF the
several ingredients entering into these
we'll known medicines.
AMONGST these writers we find such med
zeal lights as Prot Finley Ellingwood NJ d.,

Hale. OF the same city; Prof John NJ Scud-
der. M. D., late Of Cincinnati. Ohio; Prof.
John King. NJ D.. late OF Cincinnati, Ohio;

vessel, but we made out as we'll as
could be expected. The women bore
up remarkably well, but / could see
that the captains wife had a hard
struggle to keep back the tears. We
drifted all that night and by morning
were so cold and stiff that we were
ready for anything.
FINALLY one of the men suggested
that we try to climb the berg that had
sunk our vessel. The suggestion was
no sooner made than we were all
eager to try 1t. But climbing 1t was
more difficult than we thought. The
sides were almost smooth, and after
seeking in vain for sloping face we
gave it up and pulled to another and
smaller one about two miles off. That
one had a long sheer to the water
and we had no difficulty whatever In
getting on board. We piled all the
quilts and blankets on the Ice and
msAs tent for the women, which at
first they refused to occupy. stating

Planting Crops on Dry Soils.

When a man tries to work a dry
soil and one that will remain dry
throughout the season he must modify
his operations to suit the case. II Is
not best for him to use upon such soil
a crop that has to be sown broadcast,
for the reason that 1t would be then
impossible for any cultivation to be
done to preserve moisture. He must
drill his crops, placing the drills at
sufficient distance apart to permit him
to cultivate between the rows during
the dryest part of summer, and thus
prevent the loss Of all moisture, ex.
cept through the leaves of the plants.
Dry soil farming is therefore science
by itself, Its methods can never be
those applicable to the humid states.
The success Of farmer on a dry soil
depends on his ability to study his
own questions and to analyze his own
situations.

Our Asset In Farm Machinery.

A government report says: "The
American farmer buys annually $100,.
100000 worth OF farm implements and
machinery and the total assessed value
OF this portion Of his equipment Is
over 10000, 000." At this rate the
farmer In ten years will pay out
billion dollars for farm implements.
This sum is so vast that It Is almost
beyond human comprehension, yet
there Is no reason to suppose that the
estimate is too high. Is there not good
reason therefore for advising the
farmer to take the best of care of the
machinery that he has? II Is one OF
the farmers assets that most rapidly
deteriorates and II neglected soon
ceases to become an asset. Nearly all
farm implements can be destroyed by
natural elements, drying out by the
air, rusting by the presence of mois-
ture and the destruction Of the wood
work by repeated wetting and drying.
Every farmer should have a tool house
and every tool should have a place
there. All the woodwork should be
covered with paint, as this protects II
from the air and the rain He does not
even need to use paint; he can use
linseed oil, giving the woodwork sew.
eral coats. The metal work should
be protected with a like coating. In
fact, little bit of linseed oil will 90 a

cry. No paint and no linseed oil will
stand all kinds of weather condition.
Therefore, tools should be carefully
housed when not in actual use.-John

ers' Review.

Producing MIX In Winter.

The amount of milk that COW pro.
duces in the winter season depends
largely on the care she gets and much
more on the feed. One
great reason for the falling
off Of milk In winter Is that
she does not drink water enough.
Through the heat of summer the cows
get thirsty and often have all the
water In their system that they need.
It takes about four gallons OF water
daily taken into the stomach OF large
cow on dry feed for the regular proc.
ess of assimilation to go on properly.
A COW then must be induced to
drink more water than that In order
to have surplus to produce any milk
at all. On account of the dry feed II
takes far more water In he winter to
keep the stomach moist enough for It's
regular functions. Well-cured clover
hay and bran and oat mash twice a
day Is tho best dry feed ration to
produce plenty of milk. Keeping the
COW In warm comfortable quarters
goes long way in the production OF
a good flow OF milk. A feed once q
day Of well.sliced turnips or beets is
a good substitute for summer pasture
II is good plan especially in winter
for the cow to have access to salt con.
tinually. Ordinary barrel salt is bet
ter, as II takes too long for the animal
to get enough rock salt to fill the de-
mands Of the system, and II is liable
10 make their tongues sore. BY fol
lowing some Of this advice the winter
COW can be made more profitable than

Around the EARN.

Pastures and meadows require as
much attention as cultivated fields to
keep them from running out. Yearly
reseeding of the bare places is neces-
sary, else the clover and timothy Will
give way to less desirable grasses.
A dilapidated fence destroys the
looks Of the otherwise neat farm.

YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO
SUFFER
Prom Constipation, Bowel and Stomach
Trouble.

Q. What is the beginning Of sickness'
A. Constipation.
q. What is Constipation
A. Failure Of the bowels to carry of the
wasteQnatter which lies in the alimentary
canal Shcro it decays and poisons the en-"
tire system. Eventually the results are
death under the name of some other dis
ease. Note the deaths from typhoid fever
and appendicitis, stomach and bowel
trouble at the present time.
Q. What causes Constipation
A Neglect to respond to the call Of ma
ture promptly. Lack OF exercise. Excess
sive brain work Mental emotion and i'm.
proper dict.
Q. What are tho results of neglected
Constipation
A. Constipation causes more suffering
than any other disease. 1t causes rheu
matism, colds, fevers, stomach, bowel
kidney, lung and heart troubles, etc. 1t is
the one disease that starts all others
Indigestion, dyspepsia, diarrhoea, loss OF
sleep and strength are its symptoms-piles,
appendicitis and istula, are caused by
Constipation. Its consequences are known
TO all physicians, but few sufferers realize
their condition until it is too late. Women
become confirmed invalids as result of
Constipation.
Q. DO physicians recognize this7
A. Yes. The first question your doctor
asks you is ARE you constipated" That
Is the secret
@. Can it be cured3
A. Yes, with proper treatment. The
common error is TO resort to physics, such
as pills, salts, mineral water, castor oil, in.
iectfons, etc, every one of which is in
furious. They weaken and increase the
malaGsy. You know this by your own ex-
perienee.
@. What then should be done to cure it,
A. Get bottle of MulPs Grape Tonic at
once. Mulis Grape Tonic will positively
cure Constipation and Stomach Trouble in
the shortest space of time. No other
remedy has before been known to cure
Constipation positively and permanently.
o. What is Mull's Grape Tonic2
A. It is a Compound with 40 per cent. of
the Juice of Concord Grapes. 1t exerts a
peculiar strengthening, healing influence
upoa the intestines, so that they can do
their work unaided. The process is gradual,
but sure. 1t is not physic, but it cures
Constipation, Dysentery, Stomach and
Bowel Trouble. Having rich, fruity
grape favor, it is pleasant to take. AS a
tonic it is unequalled, insuring the system
against disease. 1t strengthens and builds
up waste tissue.
O. Where can Mull's Grape Tonic be
hadl
: A. Your druggist sells It. The dollar
bottle contains nearly three times the 90
cent size.
Good fer ailing children and nursing
mothers.
A FREQ bottle to all who have never used
IL because we know it will cure you.

Especial Correspondence

Sea captains have all strange expe-

er, port captain Of the Pioneer Tug
company of Seattle, Wash. is unique
In many respects. Wrecked In the
north, the whole ships company drift
ed for three weeks in boats and on an
iceberg, and during that time ro-
nance was developed and later con-
summated when the castaways were
rescued. The experience Of the cap
tain differs from almost any other
story of the deep, In that not one OF
the many people on board was lost
or even injured.
II was second mate of the British
bark Sunderland, owned by Cawlip,
Forbes & Co. of London. She was
chartered by a Montreal firm TO carry
load of cement to Quebec, Canada.
Twenty days from London we
struck fog bank, and then our
troubles began. We were anxious
to make quick passage, hut the fog
meant reduced speed. Day after day
went by, and still no sign OF letup
in the gray mist that enveloped us
like a pail. Twelve days went by,
and during that time we never caught
a glimpse Of the sun nor the stars.
and of course could not get an OBJ
servation. In the two weeks that we
were in the fog the captain aged ten
years, for he was constantly thinking
of his wife and her friend. He was
on the bridge most of the time, and
seldom left except for an hour or two
of sleep and bite to eat.
