Stimulate the Blood.

Brandreth's Pills are the great blood
purifier. They are laxative and blood
tonic, they act equally on the bow
els, kidneys and skin, thus cleansing
the system by the natural outlet of
the body. They stimulate the blood
so to enable nature to throw off all
morbid humors and cure all troubles
arising from an impure state Of the
blood. One or two taken every night
will prove an invaluable remedy.
Each pill contains one grain of solid
extract Of sarsaparilla, which, with
other valuable vegetable products,
make 1t blood purifier unexcelled.
Brandreth's Pills have been in use
for over century, and are for sale
everywhere, plain or sugar-coated.

A COUNTRY OF
NEVER-.F AlLING CROPS s
The Gulf Coast of Texas Is : World
Beater!

Raymondville, Tex, Feb. 10, -
This town is in the central part of
Cameron County, Texas, which county
lies along the Gulf Coast and is bor-
dered by the Rio Grande River on the
south. The st. Louis, Brownsville G.
Mexico Railway traverses the county
from north to south.
At Raymondville last spring a field
of corn attained a height of eight feet
without rain or irrigation, simply from
the moisture that was stored in the
soil. After that it required irrigating
In Cameron County, Texas, the ears
are setting on the stalks when the
Iowa farmer is planting his crop.
Roasting ears" are in the market in
that region in the early spring. as well
as in the late fall, and at Christmas
tide.
Take alfalfa, also: The Northern
farmer who is satisfied with three or
four cuttings a year from his alfalfa
field will hardly believe even the con-
servative facts about alfalfa in Gamer
on County, Texas. Here the farmer
harvests seven or eight cuttings in the
first year.
Sugar cane, as Is generally known,
is grown by planting the stalks them
selves in burrows, but this does not
have to be done every year. In the
Rio Grande Valley of Texas a single
planting will last for eight or ten
years. Another point: Rio Grande
cano contains about thirty per cent.
more sugar than that of other locali-
ties. 1t was this fact that won the
gold medal at the st. Louis Exposi-
tion for cane from the Closner plan
tation, near Hidalgo, Texas, which is
fifty miles above Brownsville.

pages, profusely illustrated and fully

GARDEN NOTES.

Look over the garden tools and get
them in condition for the spring work.
Guinea hers are notorious bug
catchers, and the orchards is a good
place for them to roam.
Examine the cherry and plum trees
now, and if you find that you over
looked any of those black knots re-.
move them.
A great deal of crowding and waste
of growth can be prevented by rubbing
off all imperfect shoots while they are
yet in the bud.
If you haven't a shed in which to
store manure, the best way to dispose
of it is to haul it out to the garden and
scatter it where most needed
Many farmers make a lot of plans

TOMATOES AS A FIELD CROP.
The Kind of Soil That Is Best and
Its Preparation.

This crop is more profitably grown
on good clay subsoil or low lands bor-
dering on our bays and rivers. The
seed should be selected by every
grower. Sow the first seed about the
middle of April, in well prepared soil,
where the tomato plant has not been
grown for five years at least Spray
plants in the bed three times with
Bordeaux mixture. This will help the
first blossoms to resist the blight;
if they do not drop, you are pretty
sure of crop.
A sod field of scarlet or crimson
clover covered in the winter with 10
loads of manure per acre, plowed un-
der in April and kept well narrowed,
should be used. Mark out rows four
feet with plow, sow down these rows
900 pounds per acre of phosphate COM
posed of four per cent ammonia, nine
per cent phosphoric acid, ten per
cent potash. Then cover and mark
rows crosswise with light marker four
feet; give shallow cultivation and

they begin to ripen.
Early tomatoes require hotbeds and
cold frames to grow the plants to a
strong, stocky condition, with BIOS
SONS set before transplanting to field.
Light, high, warm soil, with not SO
much vegetable matter, is the best.
Mark rows three feet each way and
drop half a small shovelful of well
composted manure in hill. Set your
plants with as much dirt as will hold
to them in this manure and culti-
vate well. A little nitrate of soda
around the plants after they start to
grow is helpful. Pull off the poor.
knotty or specked tomatoes as they
ripen.
Never wait for Il season of rain.

SOME POINTS ABOUT NEEDLES.
Tho Evolved Product of Centuries Of
Invention.

The point of needle is a very i'm
portant part of that useful little in
strument, and there are many points
about needles calculated to interest
the general public. The daily con-
sumption of needles all over the world
is something like 100000, while
every year the women of the United
States break, lose and use some 30O,-
100000 of those tiny tools. Few peo-
pie while threading a needle have
ever given a thought to the various
processes through which the wire
must pass before 1t comes out a
needle. Yet the manufacture of
needles includes some 81 different
processes from cutting the wire and
threading the double needles by the
eyes to separating the two needles on
the one length Of wire, heading, hard
ening in oil, cleaning out the sides of
the eye, point-setting, and final pol
fshing. For wrapping purple paper is
used, since it prevents rusting. There
are many sorts of needles, for sur
geons', cooks, glovemakers', weavers,
sailmakers', broommakers', milliners'
and dressmakers' use. The needle is
the evolved product of centuries of
invention. In it's primitive form it
was made of bone, ivory, or wood
Point by point it's manufacture has
improved, until this little but not in
significant instrument is now one of
the highly-finished products of twen-
tieth century machinery and skill.-

81 am not feeling very we'll" "I
am SO nervous it seems as though I
should fly.' My back aches as though
it would break"
How often do you hear these signi-
ficant expressions from WON n
friends. More than likely you speak
the same words yourself, and there
is a cause.
More than thirty years ago Lydia
Z. Pinkham of Lynn, Mass. discovered
the source of nearly all the suffering
endured by her sex. "Woman's Ills, ;"
these two words are full of more
misery to women than any other two
words that can be found in the
English language. Sudden fainting,
depression of spirits. reluctance to
go anywhere, backaches, headaches,
nervousness, sleeplessncss, bearing
down sensations, displacements and
Irregularities are the bane of woman's
existence.
The same woman who discovered
the cause of all this misery also
discovered a remedy. Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound made
from native roots and herbs holds
the record for greater number of
absolute cures of female ills than any
other one remedy the world has ever
known and it is the greatest blessing
which ever came into the lives of
suffering women.
Don't try to endure, but cure the
cause of all your suffering. Lydia e.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at
once removes such troubles. The
following letters prove this:

UTILIZING CORN FODDER.
The Best Way Is to Cut It Up Into
Short Lengths.

1t is desirable to utilize all the
food value there is in the corn fodder,
though the usual way of feeding it to
the stock is very wasteful method.
Where the daily supply of fodder is
thrown in the barn yard at feeding
time, what the cattle do not eat is
trampled down and destroyed so far
as the feeding value is concerned.
The leaves and the stock are all stock
will eat. From one-third to one-half
the length of the fodder is readily
eaten in racks without cutting. When
the stalks are heavy, coarse and hard,
the upper half may be cut for feed
with sharp broad axe and heavy
block if but a few cattle are fed. For
a larger herd, says correspondent
