Protecting Orchard. from Frost.

Protecting Orchards from Frost.
 Some of the South Texas orange growers have taken up the study of devices to protect orchards against winter cold. The, California plan of burning oil in pipes laid throughout the orchard and perforated at inter vals of 50 to 100 feet seems most like ly to be favored in South Texas. This region has the oil at its door. and oil is more easily handled than wood fires. It is a certainty that South Texas or ange orchards ought to be given this protection, especially after the plant ing of other and more delicate varie- ties than the Satsuma becomes general. It may not be needed oftener than once in two or three years, but at such times it will save orchards that, lacking this protection, might be ruined. The orchard fires in California. where oil is burned, and in Florida, where wood is handler and cheaper and therefore most generally used, are regarded as a legitimate and necessary charge against the business. Not all the growers make fres-there are some men in every business that delight in taking chances-but the majority of the best growers in both States, and especially in California, are prepared thus to save their orchard investments.

FREE PRESCRIPTION Take to Your Druggist and Have It Filled-The Best Blood Purifying Medicine of the 20th Century.

All medical authorities are agreed that the blood is the great source of disease or health in the human sys- tenn. If the blood is pure the indi- vidual is strong and healthy. If the blood is impure or diseased, then there is sickness or decay in the whole sys- tenn.
 Rheumatism is strictly a blood dis ease. It is caused by excessive uric acid. Sores, pimples, etc., means bad blood. Catarrhal affections must be treated through the blood to get per manent results. To get well. to feel strong, healthy and viz eorous, one must have good clean blood and lots of it.. You cannot clean the blood thorough ly unless the kidneys are made active. Bad blood means clogged, inactive kidneys and liver, which causes such sym ptoms as backache, nervousness. bladder and urinary difficulties and other sympathetic troubles.
 Here is simple home remedy and the receipt for making it as follows:
 Compound Fluid Extract Cardamon F oz.
 Potassium Acetate, drams.

HOrnless Calves

The following method of preventing
horns from growing on calves is prac-
ticed great deal amoung the farmers
of England and is said to be very sue
cessful: Clio the hair from the top OF
the horn when the young calf is two to
five days old. Lightly moi,ten the
end of stick of caustc potash and
apply it every five minutes to the spot
where the horns are to appear until the
operation has been carried on several
times. The potash thus applied should
not be permitted to spread, as 1t is
poisonous and would eat she flesh
around the horn. After this operation
has been gone through the calf should
be kept in Il dry place for several days
owing to the danger Of its getting wet
and causing the wound To run. This
treatment should never be attempted
on an animal later than nine days after
birth. Care should also he exercised
in handling the canstic potash as it
would burn the hands. Be careful to
rub around the center of the horn and
not outside of it.
