HAD AWFUL WEEPINe ECZEMA.
Face and Neck Were Raw-Terrible
Itching, inflammation and Soreness
All Treatments Failed.
cuticura Proved a Great Success

Eczema began over the top of my
ear. 1t cracked and then began to
spread. 1 had three different doctors
and tried several things, but they did
me no good. At last one side of my
face and my neck were raw. The
water ran out of it so that l had to
wear medicated cotton, and it. was so
inflamed and sore that had to put
piece of cloth over my pillow to keep
the water from it, and 1t would stain
the cloth sort of yellow. The &C.
zemaitched so that it seemed as though
1 could tear my face all to pieces,
Then began to use the Cuticura Soap
and Ointment, and 1t was not more
than three months before it was all
healed up. Miss Ann Pearsons, North

Value of Manure,

Keep hauling manure out on the
land as fast as it is made. 1t is of as
much value to put it on the plowed
ground as it is to pillow it under. Har-
rowed well into the surface, it not only
furnishes ready plant food, but serves
as a mulch for holding moisture in
dry weather. It may be scattered on
corn ground to advantage all through
the corn growing season as long as
the wagon can be hauled down the
corn rows. Cultivation will spread it
and mix II with the soil and rains will
dissolve out the richness and carry
into the roots of the corn.

CULTURE OF THE CABBAGE.
Avoid Maggot Pest; How to
Set Out

Although it does not follow that
planting on new ground will secure
exemption from cabbage maggot at
tack, yet such is the tendency, and
hence it will be well to plant or SOW
this crop as far as possible from any
field infested the previous season. The
adult flies do not travel far under nor.
NAL conditions, and if they find shell
ter near their place of Matching are
likely to hang around that place, and
they will accept any substitute wild
plant rather than fly to distant points
hunting for cultivated plants.
The farther the plants are grown
from previously infested areas the
more apt they will be to remain free
from attack, as a rule and yet even
in new ground, especially near a
woods or in a sheltered situation, they
sometimes become more or less infest-
ed. 1t is probable that in such cases
there are wild cruciferous plants in
the neighborhood in which the insects
have been breeding or sheltered IN
which the flies have hibernated, and it
further emphasizes that no matter
where the crop is grown close watch
should be kept for the insect, and
when once noted active measures
should be begun at once. Likewise,
avoid planting such crops on ground
infested the previous season and fol-
low such infested plots with some
other cruciferous plants.
When cabbage and cauliflower
plants are set out the soil should be
tightly pressed around the stem of
the plant at the surface, and the soil
itself should be pressed down smooth,
fat and firmly. The newly Matched
maggot is feeble, and if it fails to get
under cover promptly it is killed by
the sun or falls victim to some of the
proving predatory insects continually
on the lookout for food On heavy
soils this in itself affords large
measure of protection, and plants on
such soils are not so much attacked.
On lighter sandy soils it will be less
useful, but will add to the difficulties
of the maggot in establishing himself.

gardener, who is at the same time
himself a farmer, may be of some as
sistance in this direction.
Simplicity is the keynote of good
taste in everything. Therefore, let
the design of the farm grounds he
very simple. Do not try anything
elaborate. Do not make the place
look citified.
Have a good lawn. Nothing is more
tasteful and satisfactory than good,
clean, green grass. Even if the lawn
is not very large and not deliberately
graded, it will still be the most attsac-
tive part of the place. Have few
good trees Nothing is more attrac-
tive about a farmhouse, with the pos
sible exception of lawn grass, than
large, dignifed, noble trees.
For shrubs and other ornamental
plants, use native species. The com
mon native shrubs and plants are
amone the best of all Oranmentl ma
terials
If flower beds are desired, put them
at the side or rear of the house, pre-
ferabiy in connection with the vege-
table garden. Flower beds are usu-
ally a nuisance on the front lawn, and
nearly always inappropriate about a
farmyard.
Keep the front yard separate from
the back yard. Everyone will readily
remember a great many farms where
this simple injunction is highly disre-
garded. It is not unusual to find a
milk wagon or a chicken coop or hay
rack left in the front yard of farm
house. Such things do not belong
there.
Have some space about the house
so arranged that it can be used for
living and playing. We do not live
out of doors as much in this country
as we ought to. This statement APP
plies even to farm families. A suit
ably built open porch, paved court, or
clean grass plat, makes a delightful
place for serving meals. Very often
it is pleasanter to eat out of doors
than in the house; and if definite
plans are made, this is much easier
than might be supposed There
should also be room in the garden for
playing croquet, a secluded and shady
spot where one can sit down to read
or sew; and if the women of the house
wish to give a party on the lawn,
there should be every opportunity for
Il.
Keep the place clean and tidy. This
is final evidence of good taste and an
absolutely necessary condition in ev.
cry circumstance

MAKE FARM HOMES TASTEFUL
Practical Suggestions for Beautifyine
Country Residences In Any
Locality.

Farming differs from every other sort
of business in this, that the farm is
not merely factory and a place of
business, but it is the home of the
family, writes Prof. f.. A. Waugh, of
the Massachusetts Agricultural Col.
lege, in Orange Judd Farmer. The
Importance of the farm as the home
establishment is much greater than
its Importance as o place of business;
and this makes it imperative that the
place should be supplied with every
available comfort and made attractive
with every sort of beauty which sub.
stantial good taste can suggest.
The ordinary schemes OF landscape
gardening are not very suitable to the
common farm. This is largely be-
cause the ambitious landscape garden.

The ChiIdren's Breakfast.

The deplorable fact that thousands
of children in our public schools come
there day after day without proper
breakfasts. Is indisputable. The ex-
IRENE poor are in a measure pardon
able; but what of the hundreds of
careless mothers who do not realize
what a proper diet for a child should
be? A child sent off to school after
a breakfast of a cup of coffee and
often a bakers bun, IS not prepared
TO cope with his lessons or is not sup
piled with food to furnish physical
energy A dish of good breakfast
food with milk or thin cream, some
stewed fruit or fresh, a slice or two
OF well prepared toast, with an egg
when the breakfast food is of a light
variety, a cup of milk or cocoa, makes
a good breakfast for a hearty, grow
ing child. A good rule with some chill
dren who refuse TO eat is to refuse
TO let them go to school on the days
they cannot eat.
Rice with cream and sugar makes a
delightful breakfast dish Baked APP
pies with cream, stewed prunes or
any dried fruit is always wholesome
In cold weather the breakfasts are
heartier; an occasional chop with
creamed potatoes. AS a rule, however,
meat once day is amply suffi cient If
hot cakes are enjoyed there are none
that quite take the place of the crispy
brown waffle. 1t is much more easily
digested than the ordinary griddle
cake
Another evil to be avoided with a
child's breakfast, is hurry. Let the
meal be eaten without haste, so that
it may be properly digested
a hurried, nervous child is almost
sure to have indigestion. The moth
er who does not care enough about
the feeding of her child to get up in
time to see that it is properly done,
who cares more for the card table and
the theater than she does for the
physical welfare of her children,
ought 10 be visited by humane
agent
