Chnmherlnin,r Liniment.

This is a new preparation and a good
one. 1t is especially valuable as a cure
for chronic and muscular rheumatism,
and for the relief from pain which it
affords in acute inflammatory rheuma-
tism. Those who have used it have in
varisbly spoken of it in the highest terms
Of praise. Lame back, lame shoulder and
stiff neck are due to rheumatism of the
muscles, usually brought on by exposure
to cold or damp, and are quickly cured
by applying this liniment freely and
massaging the affected parts. Soreness
of the muscles, whether induced by VIC
lent exercise or injury, is allsyed by tbi'
liniment. For sale by Dunn & Fulton.

REMARKABLE,

About six weeks ago a swelling came
in my groin 21 inches from my navel
about the size ola half lemon very painful
and said to be caused by blood poison. I
doctored about six weeks, and was get
ting worse, when Mr.. Brown told me
about Ssu-Cura Ointment. 1 applied it
as a poultice, changing morning and
night, removing all pain at once. In two
days it broke, discharging pus. L then
changed it once a day until it was per-
fectly healed. l recommend San-Cura
Ointment as the best p~oultice / ever used.
1t removes pain and all pus, keeping a
sore moist and soft.

When sitting the hens in order to
keep the lice from bothering them. n
good plan is to fill the nest boxes
with wood shavings. preferably those
that have some odor about them. Ce-
dar shavings are excellent and so are
cedar twigs. and the hens will appre-
ciate the nest OF such materials. Lice
are great drawback to a hen when
she Is on the nest. and many times
they compel the sitter to leave her
nest when she does not desire, and II
there is anything the pou!tryman can
do to keep the sitting hen comfortable
he will be amply repaid for 1t In the
end. The shavings are inexpensive
and are easily destroyed. They do
not pack hard in the boxes asad are
quite comfortable for the hen. Try
some of them when sitting a hen and
see how useful they really are.-Rural

Dry Potatoes for Food.

Consul Frank s. Hannah sends a re-
port to the Department OF Commerce
and Labor relative to some recent ex.
periments In the drying Of potatoes
under the auspices OF the German I'm,
perial Interior Department. which
may offer a new field for farmers.
The potatoes are reduced by this proc
ess to about one-quarter OF their orig
inal weight. and can be kept in
good condition in this compressed
form for an indefinite length of time.
The military authorities have made
thorough experiments with this prod.
uct and have become convinced that
its nutritious value is fully equal to
that OF corn. and that the dried pota-
toes can take the place OF one-third
of the former ration OF oats. The fact
that the potatoes are reduced to one,
fourth OF their original weight brings
about corresponding reduction in the
price OF freight, so that 1t will pay to
grow more potatoes than has former.

Farmer. Mus, watch IN. crop.

In order to determine what elements
of plant food are deficient In a soil.
II is necessary to carefully study the
growing crop. Many farmers seem TO
be OF the opinion that chemical
analysis OF the soil will show the
amount Of plant food contained there
In. This. however. is a mistaken idea.
The chemist can only determine ap-
proximately the amount OF nitrogen.
phosphoric acid and potash In a soil.
without specifically showing what pro-
