have noticed one thing in partic.
ular while travelling in some of our
best agricultural states, and that Is,
when | see a number of we'll dressed
farmers discussing beef and milk ra-
tlons, feeding young animals for a
healthy development, nitrogen, potas-
Stun and phosphorus and their func-
tons in plant growth and protein and
carbohydrates and their functions in
animal growth, | am invariably in a
prosperous and up-to-date community.
Now, the question is, do the best and
most intelligent farmers read their
bulletins and keep in touch with their
station workers and read the agrl-
cultural press, or does the reading of
these bulletins and agricultural papers
make more intelligent farmers? 1t Is
one or the other considered from either
standpoint, for these bulletins and
agricultural papers are not read by the
poor and uneducated class of farmers,
neither do they circulate as freely
among the poorer farmers as they do
among the farmers in the better agrl.

upon to cure scab. The only rational
treatment consists in using some ex-

parasites. By far the most rational
and satisfactory and the cheapest
method of curing scab is by dipping
the sheep in some liquid which will
kill the parasites.

The word vermont on a can of
maple syrup has always raised that
brand about one hundred per cent in
the estimation of the buyer. A few
years ago, however, a method was dis
covered of imparting this same delic-
ious flavor to preparations without the
use of real maple syrup. This flavor
ing extract is called Mapleine.
If dish of syrup made with maple
inc and the real Green Mountain kind
is placed before Vermonter, he would
not be able to tell the difference be-
tween the two. This is largely due to
the absolute purity of the ingred-
tents and the great care used in the
manufacture.
Mapleine is purely vegetable and
makes a syrup that is equal to any and
superior to most brands of maple syrup
that are placed on the market
To make delicious Havorings for
cakes, ice cream and sauces, nothing is
required but little granulated sugar
and water with few drops of maple
Inc dissolved therein. Housewives find
it great convenience in preparing
puddings out of leftovers.
A little booklet, with the title of
"Mapleine Dainties'', is published by
the Crescent Manufacturing company,
who are the makers of Mapleine. The
booklet will be sent free to anyone who
asks for it. Nearly every grocer car
ries Mapleine. Try some today and
you will say the same that thousands
OF others have, that here is a flavor
with the real maple taste. This little
suggestion for sauce for puddings:
Whites OF two eggs, one and a half
cups OF granulated sugar, one cup of
milk, one teaspoonful of mapleine.
Mapleine is to be used anywhere that
another flavoring could be used.

Vitality of Seeds

The period for which the seeds of
different plants maintains their vital.
lty varies a good deal. The seeds of
some vegetables are worthless after
they are two years old, while the seeds
of other plants improve with age un-
til certain period. For instance: the
seeds of artichokes are good until they
are three years old; asparagus, four
years; beans, two years; kidney beans,
one year; beets, ten years; broccoli.
four years; cabbage, four years. car
rot, one year; cauliflower, four years:
celery, ten years; corn, three years;
cucumber, ten years; egg plant three
years; endive, four years; kale, four
years; leek, two years; lettuce, three
years; melon, ten years; pea, two
years; okra, two years; onion. two
years; pumpkin, ten years; radish,
four years; satisfy, two years, spinach,
four years; squash four years; toma.
to, two years, and turnips, four years.

WHY Rows Leave the r,rm

why Hovs Leave the Farm,
An official connected with an eastern
agricultural college has made a sum-
mary OF the reasons given by 1855 sons
OF farmers for abandoning the pursuit
OF their fathers. Sixty-two Of this
number said that farming does not
pay A strong argument can be made
on the idea that 1t pays better than
other forms of business. The secretary
OF agriculture has stated that the
products of the soil in this country in
1905 reached value of $6,O00,O0O, 900.
which Is good deal Of wealth to d.
Vide up as reward in one industry
seventeen of the young men said the
hours of labor on, the farm are too
long. No doubt they meant at certain
seasons, but this is detail open to
adjustment. Twenty-six thought So
clal advantages on. the farms are not
equal to those In cities, which Is also
matter of opinion. Sixteen said they
mad a natural bent for something else,
which is a point that deserves consid-
Grafton always. Others objected to
farm monotony, and fifteen said they
would return to farming as soon as
they made a pile of money at some
thing else.
Many OF these young men are the
Victims of Illusion, and, unfortunately,
OF kind durable only by experience.
Probably they are not aware that 90
per cent Of those who branch out into
general business fail to accumulate
any considerable wealth, while the pos
ltlve wreckage in means, health and
comfort Is large. A farm Is never mo-
notonous to good farmer. 1t Is
rather book of fresh interest each
succeeding day. A surplus at the end
OF year Is the rule on the farm; in
the city surplus Is the exception, and
the style of family living, on the
whole, Is in favor of the country. But
statistics show that plenty of boys re-
main on the farms. The farming popu-
alton Of the United States in 1900 was
four times as large as in 1850, and the
value of their property increased five
fold. or from $4,000, 100000 to $20,00O.-
600.

SiIO Feeding,

Not only must the silo be erected
shelter must be provided for the cat
tie during winter. Then il corn is
fed in the form of silage there will be
successful results. A great many
farms buy stock lattle in the fall OF
the year, turn them into stalk fields
and resell them toward spring as feed
ers. II the market is normal there will
usually be profit, but it, nevertheless
is wasteful practice. A much greater
profit would be secured from silo feed
ing as mentioned.

TANNAHlLL CASE WEDNESDAY.
Another long Contested Will Case
Promised in Court.


Another, and what promises to be a
long drawn out and hotly contested
will case, in which an attempt is to be
made to break q will, Is to be begun
in the district court "Wednesday morn
ing when the case involving the will
and the estate of Robert Tannahill.
formerly of Marietta township, is
called. The estate involved. which con-
sists mostly Of personal property in the
form of notes, mortgages, securities and
money, had an estimated value of $780,

Three nephews Of Tannahill, Robert
Harper and Chris and Will Wardman.
have attacked the codicil of the will,
but other nephews and nieces who are
heirs are also interested and are like
wise seeking to have the will set aside.
1t is the claim Of the nephews, who are
contesting the codicil, that Tannahill,
at the time the will was made, was
mentally incapacitated for making a
will and that he was unduly influenced
The codicil upon which the chief at
tack in the case is to be made provided
that Henry Stone, now deceased, was
to have the residue of the estate after
all of the special requests named In the
will had been made.
Most of the direct heirs named in the
will are now dead, they being brothers
and sister of Tannahill Their places in
the case have been taken by their
sons and daughters, who thru their
parents became direct heirs.
There is much evidence to be taken
and it is expected that it will probably
require week to try the case.

Beautiful Hair Comes
With Dry Shampooine
From woman's National Journal)


From Woman's National Journal)
Dry shampooing always has been and
always will be popular with the woman
who takes pride in long. abundant and
glossy hair. The dry shampoo does
away with SO much OF the inconvenf-
ence and bother accompanying washing
the hair-eliminates the long drying
hours and abolishes the danger OF
catching cold-indeed, Is so all around
satisfactory, that one wonders why
soap and water, eggs, etc, can find any
followers whatever.
Dry shampoos, certainly stimulate the
growth of hair. There can be no doubt
as to that. Just mix four ounces OF
powdered orris root with four ounces
OF therox, sprinkle a tablespoonful OF,
this mixture upon the head, brush the
powder well thru the hair; do this two
or three times q week TOR while and
see the results for yourself. Tnis viii
