KEEPING APPLES.

Many a reader of these notes will
have an abundance of fall apples and
would like to keep some OF them as
long as possible. In brief. there are
two ways in which this may be done.
One in to barrel carefully and place in
cold storage, taking apples out as they
Are needed. Under such conditions we
have seen Wealthy apples taken out
April crisp and sweet and in fine con
dition- Another way il to pick the
fruit TO he kept carefully, so as not to
bruise, and wrap each apple nicely
and pack in box or barrel and place
in the coolest part of the cellar. After
the cold weather comes on the fruit
may he moved to AN upstairs bed
room, where the temperature will be
lower than in the cellar. In the case
Of apples to he kept in either cold
storage or cellar it has been found
that the fruit that is full ripe and has
a maximum amount Of sugar devel-
oped will keep the longest.

III know of SO many cases where wo-
men have been cured by Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound that can
say to every suffering woman if that
medicine does not help her, there is
nothing that will. Mrs. JANETZKI,
1868 Arch ST., Chicago, I'LL.
This is the age Of substitution, and
women who want cure should insist
upon Lydia Il. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound just as this woman did, and
not accept something else on which the
druggist can make little more profit.
Women who are passing through this
critical period or who are suffering
from any Of those distressing ills pc.
culiar to their sex should not lose sight
Of the fact that for thirty years Lydia
Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
which is made from roots and herbs,
has been the standard remedy for fe.
male ills. In almost every community
you will find women who have been
restored to health by Lydia T.. Pink.

after the monument had reached the
height OF about 100 rect, at work was

o. SAFE INVESTMENT.

References have been made In these
notes on several occasions to the Op-
portunity those with a land hunger
have of getting good land at d very
reasonable price in the cut over pine
districts of northern Michigan, Wis
consin and Minnesota. 1t il true that
good deal OF this land is thin and
poor for agricultural and horticultural
purposes, vet fIere IL a very large area
In which the soil is good and where
the clOvers and vetches, small grain
and vegetables will grow luxuriantly
and where prosperity will come to
those who will till the soil intelligent.
ly and persistently. A friend who is
a good deal of a rustler recently
bought 1,5OO acres of this land for SIZE
an acre, and be is now engaged in
having the stumps pulled preparatory
to putting in crops. The proposition
seems to be absolutely safe, as this
land when cleared is just us sure to
advance In price To ST5 and 500 per
acre in few years as the sun shines,

WHO PAYS rAE FIppLER7

WITH PATS ITE Fi1D%EnF
There il little question that $60,00O,-
600 would hardly cover the loss
which egg producers the country over
sustain yearly through the careless
marketing of rotten, stale, cracked or
dirty eggs. Doubtless those who mar
ket this kind of trash have the idea
that they come one on the retail
dealer when they load him up with
eggs of questionable reputation, but
the fact of the matter Is that, while
the first buyer seems to bear the bur
den on the face of the transaction, the
loss is really borne by egg producers
as a class who are compelled to take
enough less for their really good fresh
eggs to cover the loss which the mid
dlemen sustain ON rots and spots. And,
as in a good many similar instances,
the innocent suffer with the guilty un-
less they are so situated that they
can find a special market for their
guaranteed eggs, as many do. AS
showing what the loss in these stale
and added eggs amounts to may be
cited a record that was kept OF 25S, 1896
cases of eggs that were shipped to
New York city from several states
last year. 1t was found that OF this
enormous amount 30 per cent, or co.
648 cases. We're either rotten, cracked,
stale or dirty There should be some
thing I'm these figures To make hen
men think.

THE TAiLENDERS.

Irrigation systems, Ike clouds,
sometimes 20 back on the folks who
are dependent on them for moisture
From one WHO has recently visited
Grand junction, Colo, we learn that
many ranch owners who are depend
ent for their water supply on private
irrigation enterprises have the past
season been LEFT badly il the lurch
and compelled to pay $40 per acre for
water which they had contracted at
81, this growing out Or tie fact that
there was not enough water to 20
around. Naturally the matter has got
into the courts, and tie supreme court
OF the state has ruled that In q case
where there ~ not enough water to
supply all patrons OF system those
who first bought ana were furnished
with water have the prior right and
can compel service up To the limit OF
the amount which their contracts call
ed Tor This il mighty tough on those
who have paid their good. hard cash
for land at inflated prices on the sup
position that they We're TO get water
and who i'm seasons of short supply
might as well be in the midst of the
Sahara desert. In view of this situa-
ton simple justice would seem to re
quire that those who promoted such
irrigation schemes and willfully took
on more patrons than the system could
supply should be held responsible for
getting money under false pretenses.
The prospective buyer of western
ranch propositions should beware Of
buying land on the tail end of over
loaded private irrigation enterprises.
This warning has been given I'm these
notes before, but it is worth repeating.
