WOULD HAVE
BEEN DEAD
Says Temple Clark, Of Pope,
Had 1t Not Been For Cardui,
Now In Good Health.

Pope, Tenn.-"As the result of fall
from horse, l suffered intense ag-
ony for about 4 years." writes Mrs.
Temple Clark, of this place. Il was
irregular and had falling feelings and
other womanly trouble. At last / was
induced to take Cardui, the wo1nan's
tonic, and it helped me great deal i
certainly believe if il had not been for
Cardui and Thedford's Black Draught,
I would have been dead, instead of
having the blessing Of health.
II love dollar, but have never
seen one think as much of as / do of
bottle of Cardui l could tell a great
deal more and not get tired. l recon-
mend it to all my friends, for l am
sure it will cure others as it has me"
Remember that Cardui is vege-
table extract, composed of valuable
medicinal ingredients, which build up
vitality, tone up the nerves and
strengthen the womanly constitution.
For over so years, Cardui has been
in successful use Its merit is proven
and known Using it is no new ex-
pertinent. 1t has stood the greatest
of all tests-the test of TIME.

Cow TESTING Plans,

Wisconsin seems to have originated
coW-testing plans that should accom-.
modate every class of dairymen who
desire special services Of such organ
ization. Here are the several plans:
The "one dollar COW plan" and
the fifty cents a COW plan" In the
| former the Dairymen's association
furnishes a man to do the work of
weighing and testing the milk of the
individual COWS in the herd at an ex-
pense of one dollar a COW for the
year. There are generally rs mem
bers In each association, so that tests
can be made once, a month on each
farm.
Under the second plan the farmers
themselves weigh and sample the milk
from their cows for one day each
month and bring the samples to their
creamery Or cheese factory where thew
are tested by the operator at an ex-
pense OF 50 cents year per COW. The
associations in Wisconsin at present
are generally organized on the fifty
cent plan, and are all under the Sill
pervision of the State Dairymen's AS
ISOLATION
These associations originated in
Sweden about eighteen years ago and !
scandinavian and North European
countries. Denmark alone now has 480 |
associations and the net profits of |
Danish dairy farmers have been in. |
creased over rs percent and in some
cases more than 100 percent.

cations are organized by the farmers.

Buttercups.-A New Breed.

In the Rhode Island Reds it was
thought the maximum yield of eggs
was TO be found. The Rocks" were
outranked by the "Hamburgs'' and in
turn the ''Hamburgs' had to give wav
to the Reds
Our experience with the "Reds" has
been very satisfactory one in every
respect. But now comes a rival to
the Reds" that bid fair to bear away
their well earned laurels. These new
corners are known by the name of But
tercups given them from the very De-
culiar comb that adorns their heads.
This comb differs from that of others
very much. 1t is an appendage on
the top of the head resembling
cup or saucer the edges of which are
marked like the buttercup flower.
hence the name
A sea captain, while loading his
vessel with oranges and lemons in
Sicily, procured a lot of poultry for
use on the vessel while on voyage
nome. A number of the hens laid so
continuously that he reserved these
for landing, with a view of testing
them.
Mr.. James Dumaresq, learning of
this took an interest in the breed and
found them very promising. While
MI. Cleveland was president Mr.. Du-
maresq was consul general to Italv.
and having ample opportunities to fur |
ther investigate the merits of the |
breed he found them even superior
to his home experience. At the ex-
plratlon of his time he returned and
began improving his stock. He i'm
ported from Sicily select strains To
add TO his pens. Unfortunately Mr.
Dumaresq died early last spring but
his work of improving is now being
carried on by enthusiastic hands and
we will 500 nhaye the new breed in
many sections.

Need of Phosphates.

Phosphoric acid is an essential con
stituent Of productive soil. Work at
agricultural experiment stations in
Wisconsin, Ohio, and Illinois has
shown that in fifty-four years the cul-
tivated soils of those states have
been depleted of one-third of their Or
iginal content Of phosphoric acid, or at
an annual rate OF about 20 pounds per
acre. Even If the loss has been only
one-half this amount it would require
100000 tons of phosphate rock an
nually to Offset this depletion in the
100000 acres Of cultivated lands in
the United States, without allowance
for increase in the area cultivated or
in the agricultural yield.
There were 2,265,000 tons of phos-
plate rock produced in the United
States in 1907, and of this amount
100000 tons, or about 40 percent, was
xpected.-Indiana Farmer.
