OVER THE FENCE
Neighbor Says Something.

The front yard fence is a famous
council place on pleasant days. Maybe
to chat with some one along the street,
or for friendly gossip with next door
neighbor. Sometimes it is only small
talk but other times neighbor has
something really good to offer.
An old resident of Baird, Texas, got
some mighty good advice this way
once.
He says:
Drinking coffee left me nearly dead
with dyspepsia, kidney disease and
bowel trouble, with constant pains In
my stomach, back and side, and so
weak l could scarcely walk.
zone day l was chatting with one Of
my neighbors about my trouble and
told her l believed coffee hurt me.
Neighbor said she knew lots Of people
to whom coffee was poison and she
pleaded with me to quit it and give
Postum trial. l did not take her
advice right away but tried change
of climate, which did not do me any
good. Then l dropped coffee and took
up Postum.
MY improvement began Immediate
ly and l got better every day l used
Postum.
My bowels became regular in two
weeks, all my pains were gone. Now l
am well and strong and can eat any
thing l want to without distress. All
of this is due to my having quit cof-
fee, and to the use of Postum regu-
larly.
MY son who was troubled with indi-
gestion thought that If Postum helped
me so, it might help him. 1t did, too,
and he is now well and strong again.
I'VE like Postum as well as we ever
liked the coffee and use it altogether

A Bunch Of Berkshires.

kind can be used for feeding alfalfa or
clover as hay or steamed.
The herd of Berkshires on the floor
in the picture are eating chopped al
falfa that has been steamed somewhat
and sparsely sprinkled with chopped
corn and oats. The alfalfa is cut four
inch lengths and soaked in barrel or
tank which has a jet of steam in it
shooting up from the bottom.
This does not boil the alfalfa, but
just heats it enough to make the
coarse stems tender and the tender
hes more toothsome.
1t is lifted from the tank on fork
and allowed to drain well, when 1t is
thrown upon the feeding floor. Pigs
never leave much of it. For brood
sows it makes an ideal feed, keeping
them in good flessh but not fat enough
to hurt their breeding proclivities or
injure their ease of narrowing. Be
sure to feed 1t to them on clean floors

NOTES OF THE BARNARD.

The blating calf makes little
growth.
You can get more milk out of a
tame. quiet COW than one that is
afraid Of you.
1t is not the best plan to use alfalfa
as the sole roughage for feeding cat
tie. Replace part of the alfalfa with
sorghum or kafir corn stover.
Crushed corn and oil meal, along
with good silage, alfalfa or clover hay,
will just make the young calves
bump" themselves this time of year.
Muddy fields and fodder far from
the barn make us resolved to haul up
supply to last through the next wet
spell. The next wet spell generally
finds most of us in the same condition
as the last one.
Corn bran, although possessing a
good percentage of fat and of protein,
is greatly inferior to whole corn In its
content of starch, and has high per
cent of fiber, which is of little or no
net feeding value.
Any pasture where cattle are kept
will grow more grass If five or six
head of sheep to every ten cattle are
allowed to run with them. To do
their best. sheep should not be al
lowed to run on the same field In the
fall that they have occupied the
spring and summer before.

HORSE AND MULE PRODUCTION
Growing Demand for These Animals
Places Them Among Profitable
Enterprises on Farm.

The growing demand for high-claSA
horses and mules of any of the recog-
nized market types has placed the
production of these animals among the
list of profitable enterprises on the
American farm. Present prices, regu-
lated by supply and demand. do not
seem to indicate a decreasing profit
from this business.
The relative profit accruing from
this class of animals, as compared
with cattle or other live stock on the
farm, is a good argument for its an-
portance. The percentage of good
horses in this country to-day is greater
than ever before, yet there is consider
able room for improvement.
There are many common errors
made in the care of various classes of
horses with the idea of economy in
view. 1t is. however, poor economy
to starve growing horse to save feed,
for there is no class of animals on the
farm that will return bigger profits, If
properly fed and developed, than good
horses.
Farm work is not so hard but that
1t caa be performed by either brood
mares or horses and mules that are
too young to sell to the best advan-
tage. For this reason the farm should
be the place of production and devel-
opment of even more high class horses
and mules in the future than it is at
the present

keep the OIL Meal.

Large quantities of oil meal are
slsipped from this country to Germany.

fed by the farmers of those countries
to their dairy COWS. If the farmers of
America, dairymen especially, aI-Sre-

Have Some Early Chicks.

After the cold spell is over. the
hens will begin laying for keeps. Then
will be good time to set your incu-
bator and have some early chicks.
The earlier matches produce the
hardest and strongest chicks. OF
course severe weather may kill some
of the weaker ones, but those that do
live will be worth having when the
fall fairs and winter shows are in ses
sion. They will be of full standard
weight and their plumage will be ma
ture enough to withstand any ordinary
cut that the judges at the show may
make. Get your chicks out early and
push them from the start till they are
fully grown.

One million women, representing
cities, towns, villages and isolated
rural settlements in every section OF
the country, are to-day enlisted in
campaign against tuberculosis. accord
ing to statement issued by the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis. In legis-

society gatherings. in churches and
clubs, through speaking and writing
in every possible way. the women of
the country are persistently fighting
consumption.
With an organization established in
every state of the country. under the
direction of the General Federation OF
Women's Clubs. and with associated
clubs in Alaska, the Hawaiian islands.

SENATORS STILL
TALKING TARIFF
BEGIN NIGHT SESSIONS, BUT ARE
NOT READY TO LIMIT
DEBATE.
LA F0LLETTES VIEWS
GORE DISCUSSES EARNINGS OF
NEW ENGLAND COTTON
MANUFACTURERS.

Washington, June with the adop-
tion of resolution providing for day
and night sessions asgregating ten
hours daily, beginning next day, the
Senate Monday heard suggestion Of
a policy for limiting dilatory motions
which caused an earnest protest from
Senator Bacon and others.
The Vice President, basing his ac-
tion upon precedent made in the last
Congress, when the Aldrich-Vreeland
currency bill was under consideration,
held that the absence of quorum
could not be called to the attention of
the Senate if the senator occupying the
floor declined to yield for that pur-
pose.
Senator Bacon declared this was one
of the revolutionary rulings made
when the currency bin was under con-
sideration and that under it there
would be serious abuse of parliament
tary rules. He announced his inten-
ton to obtain a full consideration of
this question by the Introduction of a
resolution to be considered by the COM
mittee on rules.
A long speech dealing with the
pledge of party leaders with respect to
a revision of the tariff was begun by
Senator La Toilette. BY numerous
quotations he maintained that no ques-
ton could be raised as to the pledge
of the party for a revision downward,
nd declared that before he should con-
clude his speech he wouSd demonstrate
amply that on the whole the pending
bill placed the customs duties above
the rates of the Dingley law. Since
the enactment of the Dingley law and
until 1904, he said, the control of trusts
had been extended to S,664 plants. with
a capital of more than $4,000. .000,0 900.
Senator Nelson also discussed the
tariff bill and quoted numerous COM
parisons between the existing laws
and the pending measure. with the in
tention of showing that in the cotton
schedule the rates had been raised
from twenty to fifty per cent. above
the Dingley law by the substitution
of specific for ad valorem duties.
Senator Gore again quoted divi-
dends and surplus earnings of New
England cotton manufacturing compa-
nies to sustain his contention that
these corporations make large profits
and Senator Frye, in reply, declared
that, taking into consideration both
successful and unsuccessful cotton
and woolen mills, a profit Of not more
than six per cent. had been realized
by New England manufacturers upon
their investments in these industries
Senator Elkins spoke at length, ad-
vocating duty on coal and petroleum.
The cotton schedule was construc-
lively under consideration all day, but
no feature of it was passed on.

Hor.eshoes That viii Not slip.

Consul General Skinner OF Ham
burg, Germany, combats the claim
made to him by correspondent that
European horses are. in general. bet
ter shod than American horses. His
observations, he states show that the
contrary is the case and the humane
consideration which American horses
receive is not exceeded anywhere in
the world. He acknowledges, however
that number of horses In Germany
are equipped with new anti-slipping
horseshoe, especially designed for as
phalt and wood block pavements. the
valuable feature of which is a coun-
ter-sunk groove extending completely
around the shoe. in which is inserted
piece of hemp rope.
