And pour contempt on all my pride.
Forbid It, Lord. that ! should boast
Save in the Death Of Christ my God;
All the vain things which charm me most

See, from His Head, His Hands, His

Sorrow and love flow mingled down.

Or thorns compose so rich a crown?

Ryan" Has mankind ever been able

CORA goatf Do coyotes annoy themf'
L. L. V.
'fThers are no domesticated animals
/ that are as hard to keep penned up as
/ Angora goats. To secure them, fence
should be of kind that will not per-
init the animals to climb, and from
four to five feet high. 1t should be SO
constructed that goat cannot jump
over it, and preferably should be made
of wire instead of boards. A wire fence
made Of woven wire and about ffty-four
inches high should hold them. Remem-
Der, that if the animals can get any
sort of vantage from which to jump,
they viii 90 over the fence. The goats
are pretty good on the defensive, hence
coyotes do not as rule make much
Roadway in attacking them"
Glenwood, Idaho.-"Is 'qusck grass
dangerous pesti How may 1 kill

:" Couch grass is another name for
this pest and it is certainly dangerous
when it once has escaped into a garden.
In the Eastern States it is reported
quite often, but | have not been in
formed that it Is in the Northwest in
any great abundance. The morning
glory is even more dangerous than
quack grass, Fall blowing and cover
ing with straw or manure are fairly
good means of destroying it, but it is
nearly impossible to kill it by fall plow-
ing
Wolf Creek, Mont" How much al

ingf" W. C.
eff moisture conditions are all right,
fall seeding will do in some regions.
Spring seeding should be done so as
is terminating. Twelve to fifteen
pounds per acre is about right FOR broad
cast seeding, but if drill or seeder is
used, ten or twelve will do.
Grass Valley, Or.-"Please tell me
concerning the comparative value Of
wheat, hay, and carrots as feed for
horses" I. NJ u.
"Such comparison is impossible,
since the feeds you mention do not fill
the same need. The food value of car
rots is very low, but the effect they (
have in toning up the system, and keep !
ing it in good running order is very
important. A horse could eat peck of
per day to a very good advan-
tage, but you should not attempt to
substitute them for hay. The same is
true in making comparison of wheat
and raw carrots for hog feed although
up to the amount that a hog viii eat,
the carrots will replace certain por-
tion Of the wheat. l can safely say
that where carrots viii yield twenty
tons per acre, you viii ind it highly
profitable to feed them to hogs to the
full capacity of their appetities, provid-
ing you feed some grain in connection
with the corrots; but you will be I'M
able to keep stock hogs on carrots alone,
as they contain too small percentage
of bone-and muscle making material"

Every symptom suggests pollution
and disease-the discharge, the red,
angry looking flesh, the pain and in
hannation, and the discoloration of
surrounding parts, all show that deep
down in the blood there are morbid
and dangerous forces at work, con-
stantly creating poisons which may
in the end lead to Cancer. Local
applications are valuable only for
their cleansing and antiseptic effects;
they do not reach the blood, where
the real cause is located, and can
therefore have no real curative worth.
S. S. S. heals old sores by going down
to the fountain-head of the trouble
and driving out the poison-producing
germs and morbid matters which are
