U THAI SORE THROAT

Sore throat is Inflammation of the
mucous membrane Of the throat, and
if this membrane happens to be at all
sensitive a pr~edisposition to sore
throat will exist.

preventative and a cure for sore
throat because it possesses extraor-
binary cleansing, healing and germi-
cidal qualities. Just a little in a glass
Of water, used as a gargle, will quick
ly relieve all and strengthen
the mucou membrane Of the throat,
and thus overcome all tendency to
sore throat.
Paxtine is far superior to liquid an
~tiseptics or Peroxide for all toilet and
hygienic uses.

We see no logical reason-do you?
why a prosperous farmer should put
all his money in the bank and let the
repair of farm buildings, fences, ETC.
be neglected. Money and time are
well spent in keeping up farm build

something, as we go along, for a rainy
day; but there is more pleasure for
the whole family in a smaller bank
account, and in having things neatly
kept-to improve rather than to de
teriorate.-Farm Journal.

woodpecker,s Foresight.

In California the woodpecker stores
acorns away, although he never eats
them. He bores several holes. differ
ing slightly in size, at the fall of the
year. invariably in a pine tree. Then
he finds an acorn, which he adjusts
to one of the holes prepared for it's
reception.
But he does not eat the acorn, for as
a rule hi is not a vegetarian. His
object in storing away the acorns ex-
hibits foresight and a knowledge of
results more akin to reason than to
instinct. The succeeding winter the
acorn remain intact, but becoming
saturated are predisposed to decay
when they are attacked by maggots,
which seem to delight in this special
food.
It is then that the woodpecker reaps
the harvest his wisdom has provided,
at a time when the ground, being COW
cred with snow, he would experience
dificulty otherwise in obtaining suit

Clean seed is q big factor.
Two garden crops a season means

Amber cane and kaffir corn are
good crops for rough forage.
For cheap roughage there is prob

Corn easily heads the list as the

1t is perfectly feasible to apply rock

Onion seed for ripe onions should
