PAIN IN THE JOINTS
Rheumatic Tortures Cease When Or.
Williams Pink Pills Make
New Blood.

The first sign Of rheumatism Is fire.
Quently q pain and swelling in one of
the joints. III not combated in the
blood, which is the seat of the disease,
the poison spreads, affecting other joints
and tissues. Sometimes rheumatism at
tacls the heart and is quickly fatal.
The one remedy that has cured
rheumntism SO that 1t stays cured is DR..
williams Pink Pills. These pills expel
che poison from the blood and restore
the system, SO that the poisonous matter
Is passed of as nature intended.
Mrs. I. T. Pitcher, of No. 100 Mon.
mouth street. Newark. N. j., suffered
Tor about three years from rheumatism
before she found this cure. She says:
"It began with queer feeling in my
Fingers. In q little time it seemed as
though the finger joints had Jumps on
them and could not get my gloves OH.
"Then it grew worse and spread to
my knees. could not stand up and
could not sleep nights. My suffering
was more than can describe. took a
great deal Of medicine, but nothing even
gave me relief until tried DR.. Williams
Pink Pills.

that was exactly like mine and my hus-
band got me some Of the pills. took
them for three weeks before really felt
better but they finally cured me. {"
Mr. Pitcher, who is a veteran and n
member Of E. d. Morgan Post, No. 3O7
Of New York, substantiates his wife's
statement and says that she now walks
without difficulty, whereas a year ago
he was compelled to push her about in a
wheeled chair. Both Mr.. and Mrs.

MANNER OF BUILDING THE PILE.
charcoal dust or ordinary coal dust all
over the pile and cover the entire heap
with soil. 1t will stand better il some
solid sods are placed on the outside.
Holes are made at the sides near the top
to allow air to enter to the fire.
Build fire in the center of the top
of the heap and allow 1t to burn down
inside the pile, and as it descends make
another row of holes about half way
down the sides Of the pile. AS smoke
ceases to come out of these holes make
others below and stop those above.
With some woods considerable tar and
acid will be formed, which must be
drained off from the bottom of the pile
by ditch.
When smoke no longer comes out OF
the holes they are stopped and the whole
pile allowed to cool two or three days.
Then remove the soil and sort the
charcoal, putting any that is still hot
into water and Quench it. II thorough
ly burned and well managed cord of
wood should give 30 bushels Of charcoal.

NOT LIKELY TO ESCAPE.
sarcophagus Was Heavy Enough to
Hold Remains Of Napoleon
Down.

Henry Vignaud, secretary Of the Amer.
lean embassy at Paris, enjoys telling of
an American who was being shown the
tomb of Napoleon, relates Success Maya
zine. As the loquacious guide referred
to the various points Of interest in con-
nec.icn with the tomb, the American
evinced the greatest interest in all that
was said.
This immense sarcophagus," detained
the guide, weighs 40 tons. Inside Of that.
and inside Of that is a leaden casket, her
metically sealed, weighing over two tons.
Inside Of that rests mahogany coffin
containing the remains of the great man."
For a moment the American was silent,
as il in deep meditation. Then he said:
1T seems to me that you've got him
all right. If he ever gets out, cable me
ct my expense"

Permanent Fences.

The farmer should avoid building
temporary fences, unless 1t is his in
tention to remove them occasionally
to make way for his rotation Of crops.
Most farmers, however. do not do this;
but expect always to keep one fence In
place. One cause of loss on American
farms is the lack Of permanency in the
fences. A man should build a fence
that will last lifetime. says the
Farmers Review. He should select
posts that will not decay and have
them so long that he can set them
deeply in the ground. In fact, they
should be set so that neither the frosts
nor gales nor floods can shake them.
1t takes a little longer to build a
fence of this kind, but In the years to
come the extra labor at the beginning
Will be found to be economy.

RECORDS OF DAIRY COWS.
System Which One Man Follows in
Keeping Tab on the Productive
ness Of His Herd.

In keeping the record of the milk,
we use ruled sheet with split col
umn in which to record the morning
and evening milking, writes II. II.
Dean. We place the cows number at
the head OIL the column devoted to that
animal. These sheets we keep in
frame with movable glass to pro-
tect the sheet from dirt. W
1t Is not sufficient to weigh the milk;
you must know what the COW is test
Ing in fat; therefore, we keep bottle
In which to place samples taken from
the milk. Each bottle is labeled with
the number of the COW, and the label
covered with shellac varnish for pro-
lection. Each mixer has his own row
OF bottles corresponding with the cows
he milks. After the milk has been
weighed, he pours tiny dipperful
into the bottle belonging to that COW.
In each bottle we place a preservative
consisting of potassium bicarbonate
and corrosive sublimate, which will
keep the milk perfectly fresh for a
month. The test for the fat Is made
once month.
do not know that any part of the
work has enabled us to improve the
record Of our cows, by culling out the
poor ones, SO effectually as this sys-
tenn.
AS the slips become torn or are lost
1t Is necessary to have a permanent
record. Once a month, therefore, the
record of each cow is transferred into
a book, one page of which holds the
record Of COW for a year. There Is
a special column on the page for re-
marks, In which any important facts
regarding the animal are noted down;
so that If you ask me about any COW
in our herd, simply have to turn 20
the index and look her up. l do not
think the dairymen realize what value
there is in keeping q record OF per-
Torrance Of individual cows or more
of them would do 1t, and l think per-
haps our dairymen's associations ought
to do something to assist men who
are willing to take up this work.
would suggest that these associations
should furnish suitable scales and nee.
essary apparatus to men who wish to
keep records, and II necessary send o
man to show them exactly how 1t is
done. 1t might also be desirable to
offer prizes for the best kept records.

THREE-WIRE GRAPE TRELLIS

feet high and to the top of these are
nailed crosspieces two feet long. On
the posts below the crosspiece Is
strung a wire, and other wires on top
of the crosspieces at each end. This
makes three wires one foot apart. The
vine is trained straight up until it
reaches the middle wire and no shoots
are allowed to form between it and
the ground The vine is tied to this

USEFUL FORM OF GRAPE TRELLIs.
wire and two arms or canes are
formed. one being trained along the
central wire in each direction. These
canes are for the first crop.
The next year the canes are cut
back to about three buds each. and as
the new shoots put out they naturally
grow and drop over the side wires to
which they fasten themselves by ten
drills No summer pruning or tying
is necessary with this system. The
fruit Is well shaded, and yet the
foliage and new growth are so dis
tributed that there Is always free
circulation of air around the fruit.
At pruning. time the canes which
bore this years crop are all cut back,
except the two nearest the main stalk,
which form the bearing wood for the
mex. year. AS the vines become old
er four canes may be left.
