n STALL.

This style of stall affords a great de-
gree OF comfort to the COW. The dis
ungulshlng features of the stall are the
movable n and rack whereby the
iehsth or the standing room in front
ana behind may be varied to suit the
1nd1Fldual COW, and the fastening for
the animal, which consists Of a rope
or chain across the rear end Of the
stan, TO keep the COW from backing
out.
The stall should be 3 feet wide on
centers. h entire stall. from A to 3

gates (Which should ali swing one
way, are 4 feet long. The rear posts.

cut, TO allow the mixer a little more

The Roller,

Professor Barrow is right in advis-
ing a more general use of the roller.
and yet / think that at times the
smooth log roller or a smooth roller
of any sort may do harm in a billy
section, for it will inevitably leave
some spots untouched and the water
will gather in these loose spots and a
gully start. i years 6 discarded a
smooth roller. and used one made of
grooved steel rings working on a COM
mon axle These cut into every place
and chop the clods and pack the soil
better than a smooth roller. Then,
after the roller, the smoothing harrow
is essential to make the mulch OF soil.

MILLIONS OF FOLKS
USE ONLY CASCARETS
They Never Have Headache, Bilious
ness, Sluggish Liver or Bowels
or Sick Sour Stomach.

No odds how bad your liver, stom-
ach or bowels; how much your head
aches, how miserable and uncomfort-
able you are from constipation, in
digestion, bi.iousness and sluggish in
testines-you always get the desired
results with Cascarets and quickly
too.
Don't let your stomach, liver and
bowels make yol miserable another
moment: put an end to the headache
biliousness, dizziness, nervousness,
sick, sour, gassy stomach, backachc
and all other distress; cleanse your in
side organs of all the poison and eff
.ete matter which is producing the
misery.
Take a Cascaret now; don't wait
until bedtime. In all the world there
is no remedy like this. A 10-cent box
means health, happiness and Il clear
head for months. No more days of
gloom and distress if you will take
a Cascaret now ard then. All drug
sist5 sell Cascarets. Don't forget the
chldren-their little insides need n
coed, gentle cleansing too.

of the crowned heads of European
countries, notably, the Car OF Russia
Emperor Williams OF Germany, King
Oscar OF Sweden, and the late King
Humbert of Italy. His first appear
ance before the last named monarch
was on Sept. 9th, 1896. at the close
OF the great congress in Rome. The
King was 50 charmed with the per
Torrance of the Norsmen that he
bestowed upon the young virtuoso the
rarely conferred Order OF Osiris, the
Italian crown, reproduced in gold anJ

was the season OF 1S99-19O0 when he
played brief, but successful tour of
east coast musical centers under the
management of the late Maurice Grau,

A brief tour has been planned for
the close of the present season and
Ardmore has been fortunate enough
