SHEEP sHEARINe SEASON.

The sheep shearing season will COM

giving him considerable trouble within
the past few weeks. His men have

to corral the animals at night to
prevent any depredations. According
to Mr.. Nelson. the valley a few years
ago was practically free from sheep
killing coyotes. He states that the
wolves did not seem to be well enough
acquainted with the sheep to want to
undertake to kill them but that within
the last few years they prey on the
lambs at every opportunity and some

class: Milk. 1898 lbs; average

The Guernseys as a breed are Of
good size. good capacity. quiet dispo-
sition. good even tempered. The calves
are Of good size and the claim is
made that they make the best beef of
any Of the special dairy breeds. As
the foundation Of the breed is the AL

MRS. ELvA BARBER EDWARDS

There are three critical stages in a
woman's life which leave their mark
in her career The first of these stages
is womanhood, or the change from a
care free girl to budding womanhood,
The second is motherhood, and the
third is Change of Life.
Perils surround each of these stages,
and most of the misery that comes
to women through i'll health dates
from one or another of these i'm
portant crises.
Women should remember that Lydia

made from native roots end herbs has
carried thousands of young girls over
the critical period of puberty, has
prepared mothers for childbirth, and
in later years carried them safely
through the change of life more sue
cessfully than any other remedy in
the world. Thousands of testimonials
from grateful persons, two of which
are here published, substantiate this
fact beyond contradiction.
