SOAKED IN COFFEE
Until Too Stiff to BEND Over.

when l drank coffee l often had
sick headaches, nervousness and bill
tousness much of the time, but when
I went to visit friend got in the
habit of drinking Postum.
ST gave up coffee entirely, and the
result has been that have been en-
tirely relieved of all my stomach and
nervous trouble.
my mother was just the same
way. We all drink Postum now and,
without coffee in the house for 2
years, we are all well.
"A neighbor of mine, great COT
fee drinker, was troubled with pains
in her side for years and was an In
valid. She was not able to do her
work and could not even mend clothes
or do anything at all where she would
have to bend forward. If she tried
to do q little hard work she would
get such pains that she would have to
lie down for the rest Of the day.
"At last l persuaded her to stop
drinking coffee and try Postum Food
Coffee and she did SO, and has used
Postum ever since; the result has
been that she can now do her work,
can sit for a whole day and mend and
can sew on the machine and she new
er feels the least bit of pain in her
side, In fact, she has got we'll, and 1t
shows coffee was the cause OF the
whole trouble.
st could also tell you about several
other neighbors who have been cured
by quitting coffee and using Postum
in its place" There's a Reason.

book. THE Road to Wellyille."

Weekly Review Of Trade and Latest
Market ReDOrtS.

R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review
Of Trade says:
Trade reports from the leading
cities are singularly uniform in max
ing favorable comparisons with the
corresponding week in any previous
year. At most Western and South
ern points the improvement in crop
prospects has brought little fall or
ders and there is evidently more
confidence in the future than at any
time since it was found that many
Of the principal farm products had
made a bad start. Jobbing-houses
are preparing for winter trade on a
scale seldom equaled, the consump-
ton Of seasonable goods promising
to deplete stocks most satisfactorily.
Manufacturers still receive orders
In abundance, few clothing cancella-
tons appear, and it is the exception
when plants have smaller contracts
than year ago. More detailed re-
ports for the first half of 1907 add
to the earlier testimony that all
records for six months were far sur
passed.
Settlement of the ore strike re-.
moves any danger of interruption to
activity at pig-iron furnaces, which
promise to establish new record of
output during the second half of the
year. According to the regular re-
port of the American Iron and Steel
Association, all previous figures
were surpassed during the six
months with an aggregate of 49,
478,044 tons, an increase of 753, 103
tons over the previous maximum.

REST FERTILIZERS.

Decidedly the best fertilizer that
can be used is well-rotted stable man
ure. III most cases where CONNER
cial fertilizer is used some manure
should be used with it. 1t is import
ant in fertilizing soil to improve its
physical condition, as well as its chem
ical composition. It Should be made
loose, so that the roots of plants may
readily absorb the food it contains.
For this purpose manures are unex-
celled.
The physical properties of soil have
a large Influence on its fertility. The
most common means Of loss of fer
tility is through teaching, or the me-
chanfcal washing away of nourishing
properties. Soil which has large
proportion of clay IS finely grained
and compact, thus making it easy
for the plant food they contain to be
washed away. At the time the COM
pactness frequently retains the ele.
ments of fertility tenaciously against
their use by plants.-Indianapolis

DON'T FEED THE HENS TOO
MUCH,

It is a great risk to keep flock OF
hens on the probability that they are
about" to lay. The most deceiving
hens in that respect are those that
are apparently in very healthy and
thrifty condition, but are too fat. On
the principle that food makes eggs"
these hens are fed literally, and while
their appetities will satisfy the most
sanguine owner, the bottom of the
egg-basket is never covered. Finally,
as time flies on, and the season is
well advanced, little reflection points
to the fact that such hens cannot now
pay for past favors, even should they
begin laying. When the hens do be
gin to lay, having Been highly fed.
the Noting stage comes on, and it
takes them three months more to shed
their old feathers and put on new
suit-all at their owners expense

NOTES ON CARE OF SHEEP.


Thinking of starting flock Of
sheep? That is a good plan, but do
not start with too many. Better try
the first year with ten rather than
100.
Never buy in the spring. Wait until
fall and then pick out the best.
You never saw good shepherd who
was not kind-hearted man.
There is no more delightful or prof
fable occupation, for a boy than the
raising of sheep. Let him begin early
If your boy wants to have flock
of sheep and you do not know how to
teach him to manage one send him TO
some one who has made success of
the business.
If you expect to engage in the bust
ness extensively, it will be wise to let
your boy spend year with some good
shepherd. OF course, he cannot learn
all about the business in that time,
but he can get good start.
The breeding ram should be kept
away from the flock, but never shut
~ into a tight pen. He should have
plenty of exercise, and if possible
should be allowed pasture always.
Feed the breeding ram well, so that
when service begins in September he
will be in first-class condition, other
wise you will not get as good re-
suits as you might expect.
Wean the lambs at about three
months of age and keep them away
from the ewes. Separating them by
fence will not do, but they should be
kept in another field where they will
not see their mothers.
Sheep and cur dogs do not go well
together on farm. 1t is always well
to keep a dog, but he should be a
full-blooded collie.-Richmond Times

CELERY A MONEY CROP.

Celery is not so profitable as it was
few years ago. Money can be made
yet, however. The return from an
acre of celery is about three hundred
dozen. This makes about $500 per
acre at fair price. Boston Market
celery is harder to grow and COM
mands the highest price. Celery is
better in moist, sandy soil. That
grown on the high lands is best. Ma
nuring on new land should be forty
cords per acre and twenty-five cords
on old land. Plow the land three
times. Plants should be started under
glass the last of February. Buy the
best seed you can get.
Seed may be sown as late as May
aid good results be obtained. Sow
the seed very lightly. Barely cover
1t. A hot spell will bring it up in a
weeks time. The great danger is in
getting the seed too deep.
Celery plants should be one to every
six inches. Spade close to the plant,
breaking the plant about three inches
under ground. This will make s1e
tops firmer. Care is needed in doing
this. A gang of men can set about
three thousand plants day per man.
They should be set about two and a
half feet apart. The ground should
be prepared two or three days in ad-
<ance. 1t is necessary to know how
much the ground will settle in a
Eeek's time. Go over the ground with
hoe often.
Bleaching is done with rough pine
boards. They should be put straight.
Wire loops should be put from board

4ystem of hooks is used. Bleaching
