EYES WOULD BURN AND STING

ut is just a year ago that my sis.
ter came over here to us. She had
been here only a few weeks when her
eyes began to be red, and to burn and
sting as if che had sand in them.
Then we used all of the home rene.
dies. She washed her eyes with salt
water, used hot tea to battle them
with, and bandaged them over night
with tea leaves, but all to no purpose.
She went to the drug store and got
some salve, but she grew constantly
worse. She was scarcely able to look
In the light. At last she decided to
90 to a doctor, because she could
hardly work any more. The doctor
said it was a very severe disease, and
If she did not follow his orders close
ly she might lose her eyesight. He
made her eyes burn and applied cleo.
tricity to them, and gave her various
pintments. In the two and a half or
three months that she went to the
doctor, we could see very little i'm
%proyement.
Then we had read SO much how
people had been helped by Cuticura
that We thought we would try it, and
we cannot be thankful enough that we
used it. My sister used the Cuticura
Pills for purifying the blood, bathed
only with Cuticura Soap, and at night
after washing, she anointed her eyes
very gently on the outside with the
Cuticura Ointment. In one week, the
swelling was entirely gone from the
eyes, and after a month there was no
longer any mucus Or watering Of the
eyes. She could already see better,
and in six weeks she was cured"

CHOKING on Oats.

Some horses eat so greedily that
they become choked on oats. We have
one that troubled us in that way, so
we often had to send for a veterina-
rian, who inserted a tube down her
throat to dislodge the grain, says a
writer in an exchange. Later he told
us how to avoid the trouble in this
way: lie advised us to place a dozen
or more smooth stones, the size Of a
small hens esq.,, in the feed box, tax
ing care to have them we'll distributed
through the oats. This compels the
horse to eat less greedily, as he must
eat carefully to avoid biting on the
stones. We had no further trouble as
long as we owned the horse.

SUNSHINE AND GOOD HEALTH

The sunlight, with it's mellowing
warmth and radiance, is II Of the
great essentials to good health.
Wherever 1t penetrates, in p%rudently
regulated moderation. it quickens hui
man life, promotes health and happi-
ness, and may be truly regarded as
n of the best friends Of man and

viding blinds, shutters, curtains and
other means for %shrouding the win

undoubtedly. a great mistake, and
makes for physical weakness and i'll

quire. Let all your apartments, kitch-
en-, sitting rooms, parlors and bed

angle. The iron is then slipped back,
as shown in the illustration, and the
nail bent over and driven into the
wood, as shown to the right. For
fencing stacks and turning corners,
both ends Of the panels would have
to be alike, instead of reversing, as
shown in the cut. If this fence should
prove reasonably wind-proof, it ought
to solve a large problem in fence econ

be needed if the fence could be
easily moved from place to place as
occasion demanded.
1t would be absolutely wind-proof
around a stack if locked with the slid

of being movable when the ground
was frozen.

would not use barbed-wir of any sort

MANNER OF CONSTRUCTING
PRACTICAL SHEEP HURDLES
Great Objection to More General Use Of Devices Seems to Be
Their Liability OF Blowing Over
Materials to be Used.

The great objection to the more gen.
eral use of sheep hurdles seems to be
their liability to blowing over. l sub
NIT illustrations Of some that offer
less resistance or are better fortified
against the effects of the wind, writes
Richard H. Mitchell in the Country
Gentleman.
Fig. 1, while not strictly a movable
hurdle, Is, nevertheless, considered as
such, and is the one in most COM
mon use. I can only give measure
ments from memory, but should say
that they were 10 feet long and s
feet high when set up. The figure
shown is made Of sawed stuff, but
they are more often made Of split
saplings; the construction, however,
is precisely the same. Holes are made
with a bar, and they are set end to
end and pinned together at the top.
These, like those supported on the A
crutch, form a perfectly straight fence.
which is not SO proof against the force
of the wind as one built zig-zag or
wor fashion.
In Fig. 2 l have shown two panels
that are intended to be set up in this
The Ekalaka eagle. [volume] (Ekalaka, Mont.) 1909-1920, 1911-03-31

manner. The lelt-hand end of panel
b slips in the right-hand end of panel
a, and a section Of the fence is shown
in Fig. 8. These panels are supposed
to be 10 feet long and 4 feet high,
and the lumber 1 by 5-inch stuff, but
these dimensions can be varied to suit
the idea of the user. With these di-
mansions, however, the distance be.
tween the end uprights On panel ought
to be II inches. On panel a the end
uprights ought to be IS inches from
either end. This ought to make the
fence worm about 4 feet. AS can be
readily understood, more or less worm
will be given to The fence by moving
the second upright from either end in
panel a.
A panel using wire instead of lum-
Der seems desirable, and in Fig. 4 l
have shown one that seems to me the
most desirable, as combining the great

on them, if that form was desired.
In drawing these hurdles. l have
allowed the center uprights to come
down as far as the others; in prac.
tice, it might be found better to make
them shorter, especially if they were
to be set up on I've ground. The
diagonals in Fig. 1, being on opposite
sides Of inch uprights, will Of course
be an inch apart where they cross. I
should not fill this in, but draw them
together in mailing, as 1t will make the
frame all the stronger. HemlOck Is
probably the best material for making
these, and it would undoubtedly last
enough longer to pay to have it dress
ed. If ordered in carload lots, enough
would be saved in freight to pay for
the dressing. If the ends of the up
rights that stand on the ground were
dipped in hot coal tar. they would
probably last as long as the rest Of
the panel.
Fig. 6 shows an iron that I think
would be a great help in clinching
the nails. A slot is cut in the end
of a fiat piece of iron, SO that it will
slip easily on the nail, and it is bev-
eled from the slot to either edge. By
slipping this on the nail, the end can
be bent over at than a right

est strength with the least surface,
and with the surface low. The panel,
as there shown, can be used on the
A crutch. Fig. 5 shows it modified, to
meet the requirements of a worm
fence. BY substituting a post in the
place of the end uLrights, you have
the Fig. l forms.
In Fig. 5 you will notice that l am
not satisfied with cleats, but have
introduced a bar sliding in a slot on
the front side of the end upright and
on the back side of the second up
right. This makes a complete lock,
and seems to me quite essential on
that style of fence. l should also rec
omend the same device on the board

ferent, and it would weigh 40 pounds
more.
As to manufacture, I should say, as
has already been suggested, that pref
ty close to where they are to be used
would be the best place to make them,
as one freight on the material would
be saved. Machinery does not enter
very largely into their constructions;
so nothing could be saved in that
way. 1t ought not to require any
great skill to saw up boards and nail
them together, and also stretch wire

A FOOD STORY
Makes a Woman of 70 "One In 10000"

The widow of one of Ohio's most
distinguished newspaper editors and
a famous leader in politics in his day,
says she is 70 years old and a "stron-
ger woman than you will find in ten
thousand" and she credits her fine
physical condition to the use of Grape
Nuts:
MANY years ago I had a terrible
fall which permanently injured my
stomach. For years I lived on a
preparation of corn starch and milk,
but it grew SO repugnant to me that I
had to give it up. Then I tried, one
after another. a dozen different kinds
of cereals, but the process of diges-
ton gave me great pain.
ut was not until I began to use
Grape-Nuts food three years ago that
I found relief. It has proved, with the
dear Lords blessing, a great boon to
me. 1t brought me health and vigor
such as I never expected to again en-
