THE CHARM
OF MOTHERHOOD
Enhanced BY Perfect Physi-
cal Health.

The experience of Motherhood is try
Ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in hundred is prepared or I'M
derstands how to properly care for her
self. Of course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the expert
ence with an organism untitled for the
trial of strength, and when it is over
her system has received a shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and a distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
Q happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed child birth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainabls thing is
that, with all the evidence Of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
pie time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, q most valuable tonic and
invigorator of the female organism.

WILL BE THE GREATEST EVER
Prospects That Tobacco Acreage
Win Pass High Mark of Past

Not baked by frequent hard showers.
shortage of plants, nor the destructive
work of cut worms, farmers have made
fair progress in their tobacco fields, and
large acreages have been transplanted
from beds 70 the prepared soil. As a
whole there is much complaint that
plants have come slowly this season,
causing a scarcity for early setting.
Many have been obliged to buy plants
from neighbors, but we doubt not that
at the close there will be q sufficiency
for all. 1t is still early and two weeks
from date will not be too late for trans
planting. More hand planting has been
done than usual, frequent rains prevent
ing machine work. But the area of
tobacco will exceed any year 10 decade,
Notwithstanding the various drawbacks
encountered.
Conditions in the southern counties,
the heart of the growing section are
thus told by the Edgerton Tobacco Re-
porter: 1T is rare thing for Wis
consin tobacco growers to have to throw
away plants because they have reached
a size too large for transplanting,
though this season it is probable that a
good many beds will be sacrificed for
this reason. 1t has been such a favor
able year for securing early plants, as
has not often been experienced in this
state, together with tn eivantages
derived from sterilizina the beds, that
the growers find they cannot keep pace
with the growth in the preparation of
the fields for transplanting. The ten
dency of the plants to spindle under
such fast growing conditions makes
them less desirable for planting, so that
beds which cannot be utilized for trans
planting within the next two weeks are
very likely to be of little value to trans
fer to the fields. Tobacco plants have
been making such phenomenal growth
this season that cutworrns have been
largely cheated out of their work of
destruction and simply couldn't keep
up with the procession, so there prom
Uses to be less resetting of the fields.
The work of transplanting the present
years crop, therefore, of necessity,
promises to be completed at an early
date"

FARM. STOCK AND DAIRY Jors

A farmer tells that he has practical
ly rid his farm of gophers by the use
of gasoline. He carries bottle and a
bunch of cotton batting with him while
working in the field and when he sees a
gopher run into hole he pours some
gasoline upon a wad of batting, and
places it at the mouth of the hole and
covers it with dirt. The gas fumes are
heavier than air and go to the bottom
of the hole. The gopher in an attempt
to get air comes to the top of the hole,
and the gas does the rest. Dig out the
dirt and remove the cotton in about an
hour and Mr.. Gopher will be found
dead.

attendance Trempealeau county fair
association advertise two weddings to
take place on the grounds. For each
