A BAD LIVER.

A celebrated English authority once
said, "The liver is the direct cause Of nine
tenths of the ills that flesh is heir to-" It
is the largest gland in the body. The blood
must pass through the liver many times in
an hour. When your liver is out of order
you will have pains or uneasiness in the
right side, or a dull aching under the shoul-
der blade. The complexion becomes sal
low, your appetite is impaired, your bowels
inactive; while headaches, dizziness and
bad feelings are your daily experience.
In all such cases almost instant relief is
afforded by the use of Smiths Pineapple
and Butternut Pills, which are marvellous
success in curing all forms of liver COM
plant, including biliousness and jaundice.
They restore an inactive and torpid liver to
healthy action, regulate the bowels and
cleanse the blood. A weeks use of
Smiths Pineapple and Butternut Pills by
bilious or constipated person will make life
really worth living They are invaluable
for all stomach, liver and bowel troubles.
Physicians use and recommend. They
form no habit. You should always keep
them on hand. These little Vegetable
Pills will ward off many ills.

Dairyinu in Winter,

There are many advantages in hav-
ing cows come fresh in winter, when
all dairy products sell at high price.
In many places the price OF butter is
from Is to 80 per cent. higher in win.
ter than in summer.
When the cows calve in the spring
they generally milk well until the pas
lures dry up, when the How Of milk
quickly falls of so that by the time
stable feeds begin the cows are almost
dried up. Now, II the cows come fresh
in the fall, they produce a good flow
of milk during the winter months.
and in the spring, when they are turn.
ed on the grass, this acts as a second
freshening and thus lengthens the per-
iod OF milk production.
Another distinct advantage in win
ter dairyins is that during this season
the farmer is not so busy with other
work, consequently he can give more
time to the care OF the cows, the milk
and the cream than 10 possible during
the busy season Of the year. When
winter dairying becomes more gen.
orally prncticed, the subject OF winter
feeds will be given more attention. OF
these silage is one of the most impor-
tant, since one acre OF good silags
material will yield ss much feed as
three acres OF pasture

the women go out and act as the
men Of the family" earning the fam

family purse strings. The women are
the owners Of the farms and cottages,

en- states were investigated and in.
spected and rated according to mod.
ern standards of dairy sanitation. Out
of the 200 places inspected, the high
est scoring dairy was entitled to 99.s
points. The average score of the 200
inspected was 3S04 out Of the possible
100 points. Some OF the stables were
found to be badly ventilated badly
built and too small for the number OF
COWS kept.
An examination OF the milk pals
and the strainers used on these 200
farms made clear the fact that these
things are often not ae clean as they
might be. and as clean as people using
them imagine. Traces OF old milk
were found in many seams and covers,
and in only So places could all the
milk utensils be pronounced super

washed and scalded and given a full
