season. For this reason the one
value OF the fence can hardly be
estimated
The Department of Agriculture en-
tered upon the experiment. of enclosing
sheep range within a fence which
would turn stock-destroying animals in
the belief that this method would ave
forage as well as stock and wages This
belief has been fully justified by the
results. The Oregon enclosure carried
more sheep than an equal area of range
OF the same quality outside, produced
a heavier lamb crop, heavier sheep and
more wool, and at the same time result
ed In a better condition of the range
itself. These advantages are due To
the different behavior of sheep pastur-
ed within such an enclosure from that
of sheep herded in the ordinary wav.
When a band of sheep moves about
In charge of a herder, it must be kent
from scattering much. As a result
much OF the forage is wasted through
trampling. Within an enclosnre
however, the sheep soon learn to
spread out and shift for themselves.
Under these conditions it is not to he
wondered at that a given area supports
more sheep, puts them in better condi-
ton and suffers less wear and tear
The success of the new method, how.
ever, depends on the determination of
all dangerous animals within the en-
closure, and on the maintenance of a
fence which will keep off outside at
tacks.
Mr.. Taylor believes that the Wal.
iowa plan OF construction is open to i'm
provement in one particular. He adj.
vocates placing a barbed wire ON the
ground oefore the wove wire is un-
rolled, and stapling it down. "I ex.
pect to build another enclosure soon.O
ms letter continues, "and will have a
barbed wire stretched around the en-.
closure and have the men place their
root on the wire and press it close to
the ground and staple it. With the
renee already constructed it seems al
most impossible to get the wire as close
TO the ground as is necessary on ac-
count of the Uneven surface.0

THE MOTHERS PROBLEM
OF Raising Strong. Healthy Girls.

OF Raising Strong, Healthy Girls.
A serious problem which presents IL
self to every mother with girls to raise,
in these days. The exigencies of school
life, the hurry and routine of everyday
duties, the artificial environment of
modern civilization, make it more
difficult to raise strong, healthy girls
than ever in the history of the world.
Boys raise themselves. Give them
room, give them liberty, and they will
grow up healthy at least, without much
worrying. But the girls present SER
ious problem.
How many mothers there are who are
worrying about their daughters. Ner-
vous, puny girls, with poor, capricious
appetites, bloodless, listless, a constant
anxiety to the mother. How shall she
solve her problem? To whom shah she
turn for help7 Each case is more or
less study by itself, and cannot be
solved by any general rule.
This is the way one mother solved the
problem. Mrs. Schopfer, $500 Prescott
Ave., st. Louis, Mo-, in letter to DIR.
Hartman, says: "My daughter Alice,
four years of age, was a puny, sickly,
ailing child since she was born. was
always doctoring her. When we COM
menced to use Peruna she grew strong
and we'll"
Another mother, Mrs. Martha Moss,

says: "Our little eight-year-old girl
had bad cough, and was in general
rundown condition." She had several
doctor, who could give the child no re-
lief, ant the mother no encouragement.
Finally, she got bottle of Peruna
and commenced giving it to the child,
and it proved to be just what she
needed. When she commenced taking
Peruna the child had to be carried.
Now the mother says she is playing
around all che time.
Her closing words were: "You have
done a great deal for her. She is the
only girl we have. and it meant lots tc
MS to have her cured"
These are samples OF many letters
which DR.. Hartman is receiving, COM
ing straight from the hearts of loving
mothers. While the different schools |
of medicine are pickering and differing |

YEAR WITH THE X. OF p.

YEAR WI n he y. Or =.
Report of the supreme keeper of rec
ords and seal, knights of Pythias,
shows that the gain in membership in
the supreme domain for 1909 was 1859,
which is the smallest net gain in many
years.
Out of sc grand domains, 10 show a
loss of membership. The domain of
Pennsylvania comes in with the great
est loss, showing a decrease in mem
bership of 1,020, while Illinois comes
next, with loss Of S5S.
The greatest gain was made in Mas
sachusetts, which shows a net increase
of 1920, while Michigan is second with
a net gain of S44. The loss of member
ship in Illinois was distributed as fol-
lows: Cook county, 1854; outside of
Cook, 504 The suspensions in the
supreme domain exceeded the initia-
tions during the year by las.
Many believe that the adjustment
of the semi-annuai password has been
the cause of a great number of sps.
pensions, by causing the membership
to become careless in the payment of
dues. This is considered matter of
grave Importance and probably will be
taken up and considered by the COM
ing supreme lodge session at MiIwau-
kee.
The report shows the total number
of members in the supreme domain to
be 706.501, and the total number of
lodges.to be 1856. The total member
ship If Illinois is shown at $3.50, and
the total number of lodges as SCI. This
is a net decrease of nine lodges in Hi
nois during 1909.
