Saved Old Lady'S Hair.

My mother used 10 have a very
bad humor on her head which the
doctors called an eczema, and for 1t !
had two different doctors. Her head
was very sore and her hair nearly all
fell out in spite Of what they both
did. One day her niece came in and
they were speaking of how her hair
was falling out and the doctors did 1t
no good. She says, Aunt, why don't
you try Cuticura Soap and C%uticurs
Ointment?' Mother did. and they
helped her. In six months time the
itching, burning and scalingof her head
was over and her hair began growing.
To-day she feels much in debt to Gu
ticura Soap and Ointment for the fine
head of hair she has for an old lady
of seventy-four.
My own case was an eczema IN
my feet. AS soon as the cold weather
came my feet would itch and burn
and then they would crack open and
bleed. Then ] thought ! would flee
to my mothers friends, Cuticura Soap
and Cuticura Ointment. ! did for
four or five winters, and now my feet
are as smooth as any ones. ELS

AutomatiSnI.

The modern citizen wants every
thing done for him automatically.
The housewife requires that every
thing shall be automatically delivered
at her doorway, Oh her kitchen Ia
BILE and inside of her refrigerator
including many things which, in the
interest of the family health and
economy, she should go after herself.
She makes her family eat automatic
bread instead of baking it herself,
and all the life has been taken out Of
her breakfast food by automatic
processes of preparation. Even the
farmer is getting too automatic. He
requires a sulky plow now. which au-
tomatically turns the corners, and 4
riding disk harrow. His horses and
cattle are fed with foods ground auto
matically in Chicago or Buffalo. The
result is that his profits are automati-
cally dissipated; he finds it more con-
venient to work as an automaton in a
factory somewhere than to run a
farm: his land goes out Of cultivation,
and the supply Of food necessities is
reduced. Automatism is reducing the
initiative and ingenuity of the aver
age American. If it goes any further
the electromagnetic controlling the
trusts and other great corporations
will be about the only original forces
we shall have left.-NeW York Mail.

Rotating Crops Advisable.

Rotation of crops is advisable.
Roots of corn spread over an area
not fed upon in its entirety by roots
Of oats, wheat or clover. Root sys-
TENS Of unlike crops are variable in
their construction and plant food
made available one seascn is apt to
be lost in drainage water unless
various crops are grown in rotation
on the same area. Remember, the
soil is a compound which can be ex-
hausted of its components used by
plants as food. Pillow under n crop
every four years to supply nitrogen;
buy phosphorus in the form of rock
phosphate, and pillow and cultivate
we'll to release potassium. Big crops
will result, and the soil will remain
productive.

Creole Salad.

One-half cup Of olive oil, five table
spoons of vinegar, one-half teaspoon
of powdered sugar, two tablespoons
of chopped red peppers, two table
spoons of chopped green peppers, n
teaspoon of salt, one-half a small Ber-
muda onion with parsley and lettuce.
This is easy to make, but you need TO
start at least an hour before you will
wish to use the salad. The onion
should be chopped fine and also the
parsley, of which there should be hall
as large a quantity. Care pust be
taken to remove all seeds before pep
pers are chopped. Put all the ma
terials except lettuce in fruit jar and
let them stand for an hour, then shake
them for five minutes in order to get
them we'll mixed. When ready to
serve pour the dressing over crisp
lettuce. This dressing gives a dell
cious salad when used with cold
meats, boiled potatoes or other veg
etables.-New York World.

Stuffed Potatoes.

Take large fair potatoes, bake until
soft and cut a round piece off the top
of each. Scrape out the inside care
fully, so as not to break the skin, and
set aside the empty cases with the
covers. Mash the inside very smooth
ly, working into it while hot some
butter and cream, about a. half tea
spoonful of each for every potato.
Season with salt and pepper; work
soft with milk and put into a sauce
pan to heat, stirring to prevent burn
ing. When hot fill the skins with
the mixture, replacing the caps. Re-
turn them to The oven for about three
minutes; arrange upon a napkin in a
deep dish, the caps uppermost; cover
With a fold of the napkin and eat
while hot. This is a very simple, and
yet a delicious recipe. Once it IS
tried 1t will be tried all the time

Farm Machinery.

All farm machinery should be IN
good condition for the work Of the
season. Not only does this apply to
such tools rs are 10 be used during
the planting anG seeding time, but to
the mowers. reapeTs and binders.
These machines ara sometimes put
away after the seasons work is over
and not again brought out or looked
over until wanted the next year. when
it is found that some particular part
has become so worn that it gives way
and the work is delayed. which may
near much in hay time or harvest.
Such hindrance can often be avoided
if the tools to be used are ~overhauled
in time and weak places made strong.

New Idea in Shopping.

watched a stylish dressed young wo-

proprietor, who had walked up unob-
served.
That woman who just left hus-
tied up to the counter and asked to
see mems shirts. I spent twenty min
ties showing her every style and color
We carry. After inspecting the en-
tire stock she rose and thanked me
sweetly, adding: I didn't wish to
purchase any. You see I am making
my husband some summer shirts and

lar about the finish Of his shirts

How to Tend Chicks.

When chicks are from twenty-four
to thirty-six hours old they are ready
to be moved from the incubators to
the brooder house. Put them. in
hovers nearest the furnace. Be sure
to have heat up in hovers at least
twelve hours before the chickens are
put in, to insure the hovers to be
warm and dry. There should be dry
sand we'll sprinkled owe hover floors,
or some road dust; sand is the best.
Let the chickens alone until they are
thirty-siX hours old, then feed them
some oatmeal we'll rubbed up in the
hands. Feed this for a few days. also
some green eyaporated bonemeal and
chicken grit. Give water and milk IN
fountains, made by inverting some
tin fruit cans over SaucerS, first cut
ting Il notch in the edge Of the can
about one-quarter of an inch deep.
Such a fountain will keep chicks dry
and the drink will be kept clean.
When chicks are q few days old begin

meat and grain. Fed five or six
times daily. On the south side of the
brooder house have roomy yards sown
to rape for chicks when they are a
week old to run in, and also provide
rape for cutting and feeding them
later on when the yard rape is used
up. This method OF rearing chickens
is more of a pleasure than work. Use
plenty of whitewash in houses; put
it IN with compressed air sprayer-
that is the best thing for the purpose
Fill every crack and crevice that cal
be filled in this way and the job i:
quickly done. During warm months
spray yards and hovers with sulphurit
acid and water. Four INK Of the
acid to three gallons OF water. Thi:
will destroy all vermin and their
eggs. Most cases Of cholera are only

Farm Profits.

The farm Of the Jarvis brothers, at
Fly Creek, in Otsego County, has be-
come a subject Of controversy. A
correspondent of one of the agricul-
tural papers summed up what the
Jarvis brothers have been doing, and
stated that with an investment Of
$4,000, only $4,000 of it Unreal es-
tate, forty-fve head of cattle, $500
worth of farm help a year and insur-
ance and taxes OF OILY $50 a year, the
Jarvis brothers make an annual profit
above all expenses OF $3.50.
Incredible" eXclaims a %doubter,
who merely forces the correspondent
TO proceed to prove his words. The
correspondent adds, truly enough,
that there are other dairymen who,
with modest investments, are doing d
good deal better than the Jarvis
brothers. He doesn't need to quote
the classic case of the Rev. Josiah
DIETRICH, who some years ago bought
a ~fifteen-acre farm near Philadelphia,
with a mortgage of $1,000, paid off
the mortgage in six years, and made
that piece of ground provide rough
age for thirty head of stock, which
Yielded $4,000 a year for the sale of
milk alone. The DIETRICH COWS gave
but 1900 pounds of milk on the aver
age a year. The Jarvis COWS are said
10 average 10000 pounds.
Mr.. DIETRICH became so famous that
visitors overran his little plot Of
ground and he had to sell it, but
conspicuous success in dairying is not
so rare now as it was then.-Syracuse
