No Criticism to Make.

Mrs. Hwfa Williams, the English So
ciety leader, talked at dance in New
York about the fashion of riding
astride that has taken hold of English
equestriennes.
Some OF our young women" said
Mrs. Williams, dress out and out like
men. They wear long coat cut like
hunting coat, cap, riding breaches
and top boots. 1t is handsome cos
tune and it is not immodest, but un.
doubtedly it attracts a good deal Of
attention. They have been telling in
London lately a story about an Eng
fish girl who has adopted this riding
rig. Pulling up her horse one after
noon she said to an artisan who was
passing: Can you tell me If this is the
way to Wareham?
THE man looked her over carefully.
Then he touched his cap in a respect

The Pecan Trees.

Mr.. J.. B. Wright, of Cairo, Ca,
says: The care of the pecan is all
important. On it will depend success
or failure. It is not an exaggeration
to say that one acre properly cared
for is worth ten acres that are neg
lected. There may be profit in grow
ing pecans with Indifferent attention,
but the greatest success can only be
achieved by the most careful atten-
ton to all details. And when I m
phasize the Importance of this, I do
not mean that pecans are more diff
cult to grow than any ordinary fruits
and nuts; on the contrary, the oppo-
site is true. The pecan will stand
more neglect than the apple, the
peach, or the plum, but it is neither
wise nor profitable to neglect it.
There is a pecan tree near here that
is forty-eight feet and eight inches
high. It has proper care and has
yielded $50 pounds of nuts. There
is another tree that is also sixteen
years old, and is only four feet and
six inches high. It has never had any
care Since planted, and has never
borne a nut"

Feeding Horses With Cotton Seed
Meal and Hulls.

Columbia, s.. G., Special.-Experi-

were born, he says:
SAT that time oats were about
$4,000 per ton, and corn about $26.OO.

pensiye grains, ground with q little
cottonseed meal busted in. They took
to it all right, and before the colts
we're six weeks old they were nbbllngg
at their mothers feed. Since more
colts have come The oldest are nov
five years old, and none of them have
ever passed a day in their lives with
out eating some cottonseed neal.
They have never been out Of Fix. The
older ones weigh LOO pounds and
are Is hands alphabetically larger
than dams or sire. They have carried
me 50 miles a day without breathing

example Of c~ottonseed meal as a comf
ponent part Of a horses ration. !
will simply add to the above testi-
mony that for the past five years my

every one Of them have been fed
daily with a pound or more ofcotton-

EASY FOOD
Ready For Instant Use Without Cook
ing.

Almost everyone likes a cereal food
OF some kind at breakfast and supper,
but the ordinary way OF cooking
cereals results in a pasty mass that is
hard to digest, End if not properly
digested, the raw mass goes down
Into the intestinal tract where gas is
generated and trouble follows.
Everyone knows that good food
properly digested keeps the body
we'll, While poor food, Or even food OF
good quality that is poorly prepared
m not digested, is sure to bring on
some kind Of disease.
The easiest food to digest in this
line is Grape-Nuts, made from wheat
n barley, and cooked thoroughly at
the factory, some u to 16 hours be-
ing consumed in the different pro-
cssses of preparation. The food,
therefore, is ready for instant ser
vice and the starch has been changed
TO a form of Sugar, SO that it is pre-
digested and ready for almost imme-
date absorption.

Turnips.

We will bear the censure, of repeat
ing some things quite often. This is
the way we have to reach the most
people, for some will read It one time
that will not see it at another, and
also to impress them upon your at
tention. We repeat, plant turnips.
Our people do not appreciate this
crop as they should. Half the dis
eases we are called upon to prescribe
a remedy for among horses and cows
are traceable directly to a lack of va
riety in their food. People think tur-
nips are poor food because eighty-fve
per cent. of them is water. However,
the other fifteen per cent. has a most
wholesome effect upon the system.
They are nutritious, also. This sum-
mer, having quite a lot Of them, we
began throwing a bushel or more
daily INFO our cow pasture. Although
there was plenty of grass in the pas
ture, our two COWS ate every one, and
they improved in milk every day the
turnips were given. They would low
for their turnips if we didn't give
them at the usual time. Horses will
eat them, and they will help any
horse, especially one that is troubled
with blood or skin disease. 1t has
