A Good Dairy Combination.

The cow and SOW are surely great
combination when handled right. The
quickest. easiest sHd keep-coming
money maker is a good cow, and when
you can keep just over in the next lot
q good SOW with seven Or eight lusty
pigs, calling for all the sisimmilk you
can give them, it is surely easy money.
More farms today are making milk and
pork their main products than ever be-
fore. Where the milk is skinned at
home, and the fresh, sweet milk fed to
the pigs, there is the best opportunity
in the world for making cheap pork.
Experiment stations claim that Skim
milk is worth for feeding from 20 to
25 cents per hundred. 1t is worth much
more if We take into consideration
the boost it gives the pigs just at the
right time Work the combination
SOW and COW. They will pay well for
you.-Indiana Farmer.

"Just How Much"

The cook book or the printed page
can give only general directions as TO-
proportions, order in which ingredi-
ents are added, methods of mixing,
cooking vessels and average amount
of heat required. There is necessarily
a very considerable amount OF details
left to the common sense and judg-
ment of the one using the recipe. One,

Farm Notes.

Good stock will find quicker sales at
good prices than poor stock at any
price.
All profltableness begins and ends in
the excellence or low grade of the
sheep.
Mutton sheep give the best returns,
if fed for that purpose while they are
young.
The sheep business will be on the
safest basis when the fleece and car
cass are both well developed and val
uaEle.
No animal will deteriorate so rapidly
from neglect Or show so marked an
improvement for good keep as we'll
bred sheep.
Not all colds develop into roup, but
colds are apt to wind up with roup
troubles if there is taint of constitu-
tional roup in the flock.

able results from an industry in which
he spends neither time nor energy?
Poultry keeping is an industry.

Feed and Fatten on the Farm.

Some one has wisely observed that
the farmer who sends his corn to mar
Eet in the shape Of fat oxen, sheep and
pigs is always sure of getting paid for
his crop The manure pays for the cost
of feeding. The man who sells his
grain direct enriches another mans

best way is to feed on the farm as far
as practicable-New York Witness.

Food We Throw Away.

The French. with more good sense

for which we pay away hardly earned.

She'd Too Much.

The farm horse is shod tco much. In

If you need frst-class laxative. there
is nothing better nor safer than that old
family remedy, Brandreth's Pills. Each
nil contains one grain of solid extract Of
sarsaparilla, which, with other valuable
vegetable products, make it blood puri-

troubled with constipation. one pill at

Brandreth's Pills are the same fine lax

They have been in use for over, century
and are sold in every drug and medicine
