CASE OF ECZEMA IN SOUTH,
Suffered Three Years-Hands and Eye
Most Affected-NoW Well and Is
Grateful to C%uticura.

my wife was taken badly with &C.
zema for three years, and she en-
ployed a doctor with no effect at all
until she employed Cuticura Soap
and Ointment. One Of her hands
and her left eye were badly affected,
and when she would stop using Gu
ticura Soap and Ointment the eczema
came back, but very slightly; but it
did her a sight of good. Then we
complied with the instructions in u.s.
ing the entire set of Cuticura Rene
edies and my wife is entirely recov-
cred. She thanks Cuticura very much
and will recommend it highly in our
locality and in every nook and cor
ner of our parish. God bless you for
the sake of suffering humanity. l. M.

FARM T

Look at the health of your flock as
the time for lambs comes. Rations
given the ewes must be laxative in ma
ture.
Rye is a good food for hogs II fed
in moderation and not fed exclusive
ly. 1t must be doled out cautiously
to pregnant sows, as it is liable to be
infested with ergot.
Wind that comes Sitting through
cracks is the coolest wind in all the
world. Cattle know it, too. Keep it
out of your barns by thinking the
cracks with good, tight battens.
When you have a horse to sell, be
a man about it; don't try to hide the
blemishes. I'd just as soon have a
man rob me on the street during a
dark night, as to have him do it in
broad daylight down back of the barn.
DO unto your horse as you would
have others do unto you if you were
a horse.
There are many things that a
hungry hog likes better than being
scratched on the back.
1t is well not to, treat the sheep SO
that we will need to look sheepish in
their presence.
There is a difference between the
language Of a horse and that Of a
man; but when a man pats the horse
on the forehead, and speaks words Of
kindness and appreciation, the horse,
somehow, understands.
Throw that loose stone out Of the
road! Don't leave 1t there just be-
cause 1t is not your business to work
the highways.-Farm Journal.

FEEDING SHEEP IN OPEN.
How Simple Cheap Shelter May Be
Provided for Them.

Sheep are unlike aUy other live
stock in that they do not require
much protection from cold. There are
a great many farmers who would like
to take up the business of sheep feed
ing, but feel unable to make the
necessary expenditure to furnish them
with barns or sheds. In such cases,
where the sheep are bought in the
late fall and fed during the winter
months, an arrangement similar to
the illustration will be found very sat

THE WHOLE FAMILY.
Mother Finds a Food for GroWn-Ups
and Children as Well.


Food that can be eaten with relish
and benefit by the children as well
as the older members of the family,
makes a pleasant household commod-

Such a food is Grape-Nuts. 1t not
only agrees with and builds up chill
dren, but older persons who, from bad
habits of eating, have become dyspep'
tic.
A Phila. lady, after being benefited
herself persuaded her husband to try
Grape-Nuts for stomach trouble. She
writes:
About eight years ago I had a Sc

and bowels. From that time on, ]
had to be careful about eating, as

Took Sensible View Of Life.

Lindley Murray. the grammarian, a
native of Pennsylvania, who died in
1926, had views of life that were
quite as correct as his principles of
English grammar. He wrote: Il
was persuaded that a truly sincere
mind could be at no loss to discern
the just limits between a safe and
competent portion and a dangerous
p~rofusion of the good things of life.
These views of the subject I reduced
to practice, and terminated my mer-
camille concerns when I had acquired
a moderate competency"

BACON HOGS.
An Estimate of Cost of Production by
Prof. George E. Day.

A very important problem, which
has attracted a good deal of attention
throughout this discussion and which
is worthy of careful research, is the
average cost of producing hogs Of
suitable weight for bacon purposes.
Some claim they can raise their hogs
at less than four cents a pound live
weight, and others that it costs in the
ne~ighborhood of six cents. AS far as
II information goes, if moderate
market values are attached to the
foods consumed, the cost may range
all the way from a little over four
cents to somewhere in the neighbor-
hood of five cents. Methods Of feed
ing and the individuality of the pigs
influence results.

and nail a few single lath across
these sufficient to hold a straw or fod-

as shown in the illustration, and they
are provided with troughs for feeding
roots or screenings. An arrangement
of this sort can be put up in some
place convenient to the barn, and
there are very few days in the winter
when it will be too stormy for the
sheep to feed under it on one side or
the other. These feeding sheds should
not be over six feet long, as it would
be difficult to get the hay in them, but
at this length it can easily be poked
in from the ends with a long handled
fork. With racks of this sort sheep
will get along very we'll except in Sc

protection except at such times.

BREAKING A COLT TO LEAD.
Method of Using a Rope That Will

A correspondent sends to Prairie

halter as shown in the illustration
and double back, pass between the
two fore legs and around the heart
girth. One rope is generally used, so
the correspondent says, but two ropes
can be used if desired. The general

idea and arrangement of rope is to be
seen. If the colt shows a tendency to
have his head free and resents a pull
ON the halter rope, the trainer has the
lower rope at his command to urge
the colt forward. By carefully en-
ploying the two ropes the mind of the
colt is easily attracteN away from
what the trainer is trying to do so
that the colt suddenly finds himself
being led whether he will or not.

there is nothing better nor safer than
that old family remedy, Brandreth's
Pills. Each pill contains one grain
of solid extract of sarsaparilla, which.
with other valuable vegetable prod.
ucts, make it a blood purifier of ex.

with constipation, one pill at night
will afford great relief.
Brandreth's Pills are the same fine

used. They have been in use for over
a century, and are for sale every.
where, either plain or s~ugar-coated.

Famous Lamp.
Was Aladdin's lamp so very wonder
full? Today we touch button when
a messenger Is needed; we press an
other, and the room Is flooded with
light. 1t is not recorded that Aladdin's
old brass implement was of any value
for Illuminating a dark room. Our
slaves of the lamp do not terrify us by
their horrid appearance. They are
placed afar off In a home of their own
and are always ready to furnish us
with light and heat at any time of the
day or night. Is not that simpler and
more direct than to have to carry an
ugly piece of brass about with us,
which when rubbed did not give what
was wanted, but merely brought the
servant?
And was the magic mirror so much
superior to the telephone? Who would
not prefer to talk with his friends to
merely seeing them dimly through a
clouded mirror? Truly the telephone
is one Of the most romantic devices
that has ever rewarded mans endeav-
ors. And yet the magic mirror, while
1t seems improbable, may lead to 1t,
but even then 1t would only supple
ment the telephone.
And In what way was the fairy boat
or coach superior to the electric launch
or automobile? True, the rider did not
know how or why it moved, but this
same advantage holds for many who
today use these very equipages. And
one can easily believe that we are not

Tho Way They Terrorized the Citizens
In the Old DAYS.

In the Old Etays.
Some curious particulars of the dam
gers of London streets In the old days
are given In an article on "The Scow-
rers and the Mohocks" In the British
Monthly Review. The favorite prae-
tice Of the Scowrers was to invade
some tavern In the evening, drive out
the customers, III treat the proprietor
and his attendants, wreck the prem
ises and, above all, roar" Steele
tells of the Mohocks, one of whose pas
times was to enclose women in casks
and roll them down the street" In
1712 royal proclamation was issued
offering a reward of f100 for the ap-
prehension of any Mohock. Soon after
the accession of George Nv. to the
throne In 1920 there was a recrudes-
cence, though In a milder form, of
Mohock rowdyism, and attacks on the
watch-"boxing the Charlies," as the
phrase went-once more became fash
ionable among the wilder spirits of
London. These revelries, however,
were rudely disturbed by the estab-
lishment In 1920 by Sir Robert Peel of
an efficient body of police.
Yet again In early Victorian days
there was another Mohock outburst un-
der the auspices Of the Marquis of Wa
terford, and once more knockers and
bell handles were wrenched off, public
monuments injured, lights extinguish-
ed and crockery smashed. This form
of humor. however, was quite wasted
upon the local authorities, the marquis
being promptly knocked down by a
watchman and taken up half dead.
