 Last spring I became so run down from the serious effects of a lingering cold, that several complications united in pulling me down I could neither eat nor sleep well, and lost flesh and spirit
 T finally tried Peruna and it did wonders for me In two weeks was like another person, and in month l felt better than I ever had before.
 T thank Peruna for new life and strength. I send you two pictures, so you can see what Peruna has done for me"
 Some people find it more conven- tent to take tablets than fluid medi- eineS This is especially true of busy men who have some CataTrha1 affec- lion, or some trouble with the ston- ach that does not actually prevent them from working as usual.

THE EGG LAYING CONTEST.
Beats All Poultry Shows as Practical
 Proof of the Hen.
By c. B. LANE.

Assistant Chief of Dairy Division, De-
 partment of Agriculture.
 A year ago last November. the first egg laying contest in America was started at the Connecticut Agricultural college at Storrs Conn.
 Looking back through these twenty months since the contest began and including the effect of the similar con test at the agricultural experiment sta- ton at Mountain Grove, Mo, it seems to me that nothing has happened in a hundred years that has done so much for the utility end of poultry keeping as these egg laying contests Poultry shows we have had for many years but these have been d detriment rather than a benefit 10 the utility part of the poultry business
 To illustrate: Take the Light Brah- ma, a magnificent specimen. twelve pounds or more in weight, pIumage perfect in color: but if he hasn't any feathers on his middle toe he is no good disqualified, throw him out On the contrary, if a magnifying glass can show on the leg of a White Wyan- dotte small hole that looks as if there might have been a tuft of down there some time then he is no good, no mat ter how perfect in every other respect.
 Now, if bird is bred to look at merely, then perfection of feather and those other things arG all right. Of course the breeders of fancy birds all claim that their birds are good layers, but they don't enter them in the egg laying contests. Where an exception occurs and a fancier does enter some birds, as 3, rule, their egg record will be found at the bottom of the list Egg laying contests are going to bring the utility part into such prominence that the winner of these contests can get as much for his birds as the win ner of our big shows has been getting for his l am told that MT. Barron has sold his pen at the Missouri con test for $500-$50 a bird.
 MT. Barron has been trap nesting his birds for many years. For the last eight years accurate records have been kept of the pedigree and performance of generations of birds. So his high records are not guesswork. They are the result of years of care and pains taking labor, not to mention the ap- plication of brains.
 In my opinion egg laying contests are just beginning, and we shall have more of them in the coming years If they add even a half dozen eggs a year to the output of the American hen it will add many millions of dollars to the wealth annually produced by American agriculture.

STORIES ABOUT SONGS.

Most of the songs that have made history were written by men who had no otheP claim to immortality. The "Marseillaise'' is the only production of Rouget de P1sle which has sur viYed, and .'"fhe Wearing of the Green was the work of an anony y- nlous p1EFveyoF of ballads for the street hawi<ers of Dublin. When the British boabaFded Baltimore in 1874 a young lawyer of the town, Francis Scott Key, was inspired ts write The Star Spangled Banner" which in q few months was known throughout the United States. Key wrote many other poems, now forgotten.
 Max SeiaheekenbufgeF, an obscure Swabiah merchant, who never pub Iished anything else, composed in 1840 some verses Of which the burden was thus translated;

 Firm stand thy sons to watch the

NATIONAL BUREAU TO
 CENSOR INSURANCE BUSINESS
Recommended Before State LecaI Fire Agents-J. L. Case on Asseciaten's Executive Committee.

Coming out Hatfooted in favor of the United States Supreme court es- tablishing @ United States supervision of insurance conditions throughout the country, State Insurance Commission CT Burton Mansfield electrified the del egates present at Meriden on Tuesday evening at the 18th annual banquet of the Connecticut Association of Local Fire Insurance Agents. As the com missioner proceeded in his discourse and announced himself free from all political intrigue in the conduct of his office the banqGeteFs applaused him heartily.
 MT. Mansfield stated that if he were the head of a new insurance company and was confronted with the task of pleasing 49 different state insurance commissioners and conforming to AS he would most certainly become dis ceuraged and quit Therefore the commissioner recommended as the most sensible remedy the establish ment of a national bureau to censor the conduct of the insurance business. EX-President Dale D. Butler of Mid dletown was toastmaster, At the aft erneon session of the association there was considerable discussion on sev- eral Theses introduced by the com mittee.
 The committee on resolutions brought in a number of resolves, the most important of which was one pledging the association to fight q. all efforts of various underwriters to es- tablish agencies in cities where their parent companies had an office. This is the dual agency issue and one which the national state and local association for some time have been deSirouS of aboliShing. ConSidera ble opposition developed against the adop- ton of this resolution and it was finally withdrawn by the committee and vote of thanks passed, instead, to the companies who have shown such recognition to their agents in various towns that they have not attempted to establish another agency in addition. following list of officers and commit tees:

HOW TO START AN
 APPLE ORCHARD; Vital Points That Mean Success or
 Failure.
By 6: P: HARFHT,


 By e P: H4RFAY,
 Corn Expert United States Department
 of Agriculture.
 The first thing to de in starting an apple orchard Is to select the best place While apple trees will grow everywhere they will thrive and pro duce fruit only on such soil and In such location as are best suited te thenf
 The best land for apple trees is the rolling upland that Hes at an elevation of from 4e9 te 2,9eG feet above sea level, On land of this character trees are far more. healthy and will be less subject to diseases. There also is less danger from late spring frests.
 The kind Of soil Is the next most irnportant thing. If possible this should be somewhat heavy loam, with enough clay. in. 1t te save washing in times of heavy rains. 4 soil that is made from limestone Is best fer fruit trees.
 This kind of soil Is found on the Pa csfie coast iA several of the northwest ern states, in the great lakes section, in Kentucky and Tennessee and in the Lake Champiain and Hudson river valleys. While good apples will grow outside Of these limestone forma- EfeIls, neither the trees nor fruit are as good. The trees are shorter lived, while the flavor of the apples is lack ing ,s+ ,,,,.u,r,.,,,, ,t .,, .on l.,
 
 of great Importance, To dig holes in seA and plant trees in them. as is so egeen done, is absolutely wrong Trees se planted frequently do not produce fruit under fifteen or twenty years when they should bear ln six. some varieties under good culture will begin 10 bear apples in four years, Apple trees under good management and care Tin live and produce fruit for more than 100 years, and the right things should be done in the beginning,
 To obtain the best results the sol! sho,1d be plowed and corn and pota- toes grown a year before the trees are planted In sections where the mer- cury does not go more than 20 degrees below zero autumn is the best time in which to plant The rows where the trees are to be planted may be plowed deep and the trees set banking them up well with earth. They will stand the winter and will gain three months the following season over trees plant ed in the spring,
 Dynamite is being used with much success in tree planting One-half of a stick put down about three feet where the tree is to be planted will loosen the soil thoroughly and advance the growth of theStTee materially the first two years.

WINTER pAlRYING PAYS.
More Than Twice the Profit That ths
 Summer Dairyman Can Make.
By GEORGE T: POWELL, President of the Agricultural Experts
 Association.

By GEORGE T: POW ELL,
 President of the Agricultural Experts
 Association.
 The dairy COW eff today is largely an artificial product. The application of science breeding; feeding and care has developed her from an animal pro- dueing a few quarts of milk to sustain her young >te an animal that produces sixty quarts of milk a day.
 One of the essential things in secuf= ing a large yearly record Is fall fresh- ening;" which enables the dairyman to produce a large flow of milk in winter,
 The claim Is sometimes made that feed stuffs are too expensive in winter to produce milk at profit This is all wrong, and we have only to in vestigate the work of the dairymen who fei .ow all the year round dairying to substantiate the fact that they are making the most money,
 With the silo and an abundance of alfalfa hay, milk can be produced on thousands of farms almost as cheaply in winter as in summer and in nearly as large quantities. The increase in cost for winter milk is more than off, set by the increase in price,
 To compare the fall and spring "freshening. One farmer with twelve cows had them all come in fresh in the spring, when the price of milk was the lowest, In the winter he was feeding these twelve cows. and they were all dry with the exception of three, and they were shippers He was driving two miles to the creamery every day in the middle of December with twenty quarts of milk when the creamery was offering high prices. Had half of his cows freshened in the fall he should have been hauling 100 quarts of milk instead of twenty
 Another dairyman in the same state was conducting his dairy in a directly opposite way. This man has been ship ping for several years practically as much milk in December as when his COWS were on grass He was shipping in December 250 quarts of milk per day from twenty-tWO cows, and his milk check for the month was $316.
 The value of winter dairying' may be stated briefly as follows:
 F'irst.-Cows produce more milk and butter during the year when they freshen in the fall because they are sure to produce a good flow of milk during the winter. In the spring fresh pastures stimulate the milk flow and keep it up through the summer
 Second.-The hired help is kept en- ployed continuously.
 Third.-The winter dairyman has the biggest check
