many kinds of kidney medicine, but

you have had kidney trouble, nor at

labor in the same amount Of time, to
say nothing of the wear and tear on a
mans back and body.
Almost every year a farmer buys
some implement that he can use only
during one season of the year-per-
haps only a few days; but the low
wheel wagon is something that he
can use every day in the year.
The broad tires make the draft
lighter, and that means saving the
team. OF course for certain kinds of
road use there will always be a de
mand for the narrow tire wheels, but
on a smooth surface and particularly
where the ground is soft the pull on
the team is decreased 20 per CEN to
so per cent for the simple reason that
the broad tires do not sink into the
ground; the wider bearing surface of
the tire distributes the load in such
a n as to buoy the wagon up
and keep it on top of the ground.
Especially on plowed ground or very
muddy roads these wheels do not mire
like the ordinary wheels, which Of
course makes the saving on the horses
even greater.

STRONGER THAN MEAT
A Judges Opinion Of Grape-Nuts.

A gentleman who has acquired a ju-
dicial turn of mind from experience
on the bench out in the Sunfiower
State writes a carefully considered
opinion as to the value Of Grape-Nuts
as food. He says:
For the past 5 years Grape-Nuts
has been a prominent feature in our
bill of fare.
The crisp food with the delicious,
nutty flavor has become an indis-
pensable necessity in my family's
everyday life.
1T has proved to be most healthful
and beneficial, and has enabled US to
practically abolish pastry and pies
from u table, for the children prefer
Grape-Nuts, and do not crave rich and
unwholesome food.
"Grape-Nuts keeps us all in perfect
physical condition-as a preventive Of
disease 1t is beyond value. l have been
particularly impressed by the benefi-
cial effects OF Grape-Nuts when used
by ladies who are troubled with face
blemishes, skin e%ruptions, etc. 1t
clears up the complexion wonderfully.
las to its nutritive qualities, my ex-
p%erience is that one small dish Of
Grape-Nuts is superior to a pound of
meat for breakfast, which is an impor-
tant consideration for anyone. 1t sat
isles the appetite and strengthens the
power Of resisting fatigue, while its
use involves none of the d~isagreeable
consequences that sometimes follow
a meat breakfast" Name given by

USEFUL LOW-WHEEL WAGON
Has Seen Found Practically Indispen-
sable for Various Jobs Around
Farm Every Day in Year.

Every farmer knows that there are
numberless small jobs about the place
that require the use of a wagon where
the bed will be close to the ground
so as to make the lift as short as pos
sible.
That need has been met with the
low-wheel wagon and has made it
practically indispensable for gathering
apples, and hauling basket fruit, fod-
der, manure, hay and grain, clearing
the fields of stones and stumps and
carrying tools and timber for fixing
up fences, or any odd job, say, like
hauling away n fallen tree.
Then there is nothing that fills the
bill letter for all kinds Of work in the
cOrn fields. There is no earthly rea-
son why a man should lit the cOrn as
high as his shoulder when the low
wagon will permit him to perform the

Ended Cats Solou-r.

Felix Smith of Easton, Pa. bought
a cat the other day. He paid S. for
her. Why did Felix pay five bucks
for the cat? Answer-Because she
was guaranteed to be a good ratter.
Did Felix have rats? We should say
he did-the house was full of EN-!
And the cat cleaned 'em out! No;
that's the curious part of it. After the
cat had been on the job a week the
rats were as plentiful as ever. Felix
wouldn't understand it until one even
ing he concealed himself in the base
ment to watch the cat. About 8 p.
m, as the cat sat with her eye on a
rat hole, Felix says that rat after
rat came out of the hole, walked up
to the old cat, kissed her goodnight
and then returned to the hole. After
that Felix kicked the cat out of the
house.-Boston Post.

MAKING GOOD CIDER VINEGAR
Process Is Simple and Involves Very
Little Work-CleanIincss Is First
important Factor.
CBy s. NJ. MILLERD

W. ~ NJ AAA'AaA-hNf
There are many apple orchards, es-
pecially those that have never been
sprayed or cultivated, in which large
quantities of apples are allowed to go
to waste every year.
Such fruit makes a good grade Of
cider vinegar, and a handsome profit
a be made in utilizing it in this way,
Even If one sprays and %cultivates the
orchard regularly each season and
does everything possible to prevent
having anything but marketable fruit
there will always be a good many
culls.
However, do not allow these unmer-
chantabie apples to go to waste. Make
cider vinegar from them and get a
good price for the product right here
at home.
Making cider vinegar is very simple.
There is practically no labor attached
TO it other than extracting the juice
from the apples.
Perfect cleanliness first, last and all
the time is a matter of vital impor-
tance. Apples that are picked up from
the ground are usually dirty and
should be thoroughly washed before
being placed in the cider mill.
The mill and all utensils used in the
making must be kept we'll cleaned If
a good product is to be made. To use
unclean fruit or unclean vessels sim
ply invites bad fermentation.
If all sorts of germs which are found
on dirty and decayed fruit are put in
the cider a good quality of vinegar
must not be expected.
Where one has NJ mill the fruit can
be pulped by hand with wooden mauls
in a wooden trough, and where only a
sufficient quantity of vinegar is want
ed for home use 1t is not a difficult
matter to secure 1t In this way.
The best receptacles in which to
put the cider are molasses kegs or
barrels, preferably those which have
held vinegar previously, since fermen-
tation commences % n when the fer
menting organism Is present than
when it must find its way into the
liquid from outside mediums.
To made a good grade of vinegar
two factors are essential during the
process Of fermentation. First, the
air must have free access to the liquid
10 support the organism. Second, the
temperature must be favorable for the
growth of the fermenting agent.
The barrels or kegs should be placed
in a where the temperature will
be Fairly constant at 70 to rs degrees,
placed on their sides in order to give
more surface to the atmosphere, and
filled with the juice to within six in
ches TO eight inches of the bunghole.

Old Dutch Windmill.

before the war at Lawrence, but this
one vas blown down several years
ago.
The mill was built by Charles
Schwarz. He came from Holland. He
had been a miller in his native land
and when he came to Kansas to seek
his fortune on a prairie farm he found
it was many miles to a mill.
Schwarz saw in this an opportunity
for he had been a miller in the old
country and the strong winds of Kan
sas reminded him of the ocean winds
that sweep across the dikes Of Holland
and turn the mills dotted all over that
country, so he conceived the idea of
making the bold, free winds of the
prairie pay toll by turning a mill that
should grind the peoples grain.
But there was no machinery in this
country for such a mill, SO with great
care and pains, he drew on paper
drafts of every wheel and cog and
lever and bolt, and taking them to Lin
and the parts forged in the foundry
there.
And for nearly forty years the old
mill has been doing duty, working
when the wind blows, resting when
the calm comes; teaching it's genial
master many a lesson in patience, fur
nishing food for the public roundabout,
and a competence for the man who
saw an opportunity and had the skill
and perseverance to accomplish what
was, in that day, a really great under
taking.

1t is good practice to graft plums
on peach stock.
A spraying of the currant and other
small fruit bushes will help.
Fruit should never be offered for
sale that is exposed to flies.
An orchard neglected for one year
virtually puts it back three years.
If the rabbits have gnawed only the
outer bark, wrap the wound with cloth.
If your orchard produces poor fruit
you may be sure there is a reason
and you ought to find it.
Grape vines make a beautiful arbor,
and if properly taken care of will pay
their way every veal in fruit.
Do not be stingy of water for the
plants. Soak them plenty once or
twice a week, and don't dribble once
a day.
It is a great mistake 10 pick out the
poorest soil on the place on which to
plant the orchard. The best is none
too good.
If a man sells fruit of which he is
ashamed then he should throw away
his stencil and conceal all evidence
of his ownership.
The flowers will require close atten-
ton now to keep them tidy. Pick off
all the seed pods and dead leaves and
keep after the weeds.
Lemon and orange growers have
learned that 1t is best to wash and
wipe them before packing to prevent
the spread of rot fungi.
The reason fruit trees planted In
fence corner and out Of the way
places do not thrive generally may
be found In the fact that they are no,
cultivated.
