women who want cure should insist
upon Lydia +. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound just as this woman did. and
not accept something else on which the
druggist can make q little more profit.
Women who are passing through this

enough to provide for a six-foot three
inch length of the circumference Of
the circle as we'll as several inches for
the lap or strap joints. The forms are
raised by loosening them at the joints
and setting them up again on the fin
ished section of the silo.
Concrete for silos should be rich in
Portland cement and should be put

parts crushed rock. Four parts of
clean pit or bank-run gravel may be
used instead of the sand and rock.
Measure all materials on the basis

concrete in buckets, but the work can
be done more quickly and easily by
using a horse together with a der
rick or a we'll braced jib-bOom fixed to
an adjoining building.
The first cost of concrete silCs may
or may not be greater than that of the

now at hand when farmers. like rail-

Concrete silos need no insurance;

A combination implement that Is
handy for farm and stable use has
been designed by a man in the state
Of Washington. 1t is a fork and shovel
combined. and its advantage is that it
takes up no more room than one of
these tools and can quickly be turned
from one into the other. The basic
implement is a fork. and the shovel
portion Is adjus:ably connected. In
the head OF the scoop are holes
through which the tines Of the fork
pass when the scoop is to be attached.
and across the bottom is a metal strip
with . series of longitudinal grooves.
