BEAUTY OF DAY LILY

Everyone admires the Day lily
which in later years has been greatly
improved. Earlier there were only a
few sorts to select from. but today we
have good range Of colors and a
long season of blooming. the result Of
the hybridist's art.
Those who enjoy lilies in yellow
shades in particular will find in this
species much enjoyment and success
for their efforts. This plant may be
grown from seed or divisions of old
plants. They are very certain bloom
ers and the season runs from about
May 20 to September.
They may be planted at any time
and will stand more Indifference than
most plants. Every plant lover should
have some Of the later introduct:ons.
a. the improvement has been more
wonderful in this than in any other
I know Of.

Three-Year.oId Suffolk Stallion.

The young colt needs the best of
care on the farm, for it's life depends
upon the care it gets during the first
few weeks of its life Navel-ill in
colts requires close attention, for the
disease is caused by micro-organ-
ism. Several bacteria have been sus.
pected of being responsible for this
malady Every one of the suspected
organisms is found abundantly in
manure and on objects contaminated
with manure. The infective material
gains entrance into the colt through
the open umbilical cord, as u result
Of its coming in contact with litter,
floors or discharge from it's dam, con-
taminated by one Of the organisms
that cause the trouble.
One of the easiest ways to prevent
the disease is to insist upon clean
stables. 1t isn't hard task to keep
the stalls clean If they are watched
each day. Mares in the latest stages
Of CESSATION should be placed in a
box stall that has been previously
cleaned and disinfected. The bedding
should be renewed frequently and the
external genital organs of the mare
and the neighboring tissues should be
cleaned and disinfected with a 2 per
cent solution of carbolic acid, or
per cent solution Of some coal tar dis
infectant. Operations for opening alb
scesses and the removal of after-births
from cows should not be performed in
the immediate vicinity of the preg-
nant mare. 1t is up to the farmer to
watch these matters closely and a

USEFUL TOOLS FOR
WORK IN ORCHARDS
Blade Of Moving Machine, Fitted
to Wooden Handle, Will Be
Found Satisfactory.

A useful tool for cutting canes Of
bush fruits is made from the blade Of
moving machine fitted to a wooden
handle. 1t looks like q tomahawk with
sharp blade on each side. The blade
stands at an angle which gives 1t the
right slope to cut well without tearing
the plants. 1t should be made of the
very best steel and the lower edge of
the blade should be kept very sharp
across the full face.
Another useful tool is made from an
old file or wood rasp, with shoulder
pr lug turned up to fit on scythe
snath. The same tool works better,
however, with straight handle. But
it must be kept very sharp to do ef.
fective work.

SOME ESSENTIALS
OF FARM ANIMALS
Farmer Makes Mistake in Breed.
ing Horses Not Adapted to
His Requirements.

Poor and worthless old plugs tug
ging in the harness keep company
holding the lines.
Even an old plug horse may be kept
neat and clean and be afforded a suffi-
cient amount of wholesome food so
that it may be capable of doing some
useful work.
The grade sire is proposition we
should steer clear OF.
Prepotency is fixed characteristic
in all purebred sires.
The average farmer makes a mis-
take when he breeds trotting horseH
or other breeds not adapted to his
business.
No one point is more essential than
sound, well-shaped hoofs. The value
Of a horse depends to large extern,
upon his feet.
The fact that horse has been i'm
ported does not add one cent to it's
intrinsic value for breeding purposes
However, many horse breeders believe
that about the only requisite is that
stallion should come from some for
eign country. The facts are that
America should be and is breeding her
own draft horses instead of importing
them.
We are fast getting over the notion
that we are dependent upon breeder;
of the old world for improved live
stock.
Potbellicd, hay.fed colts tell the.
story of improper feeding, slow
growth and poor form.

WORK WITH THE FLOWERS
BY JOSEPHINE De MARI.

Do not neglect the winter garden,
best. Turn the plants once a week;
stir the surface soil; wash the pots
with strong soapsuds; give plenty of
fresh air daily; shower the plants
once week; watch for pests; sec
that the warm sunshine does not
scorch your plants on warm utter
moons.
Plants that are intended for bedding
should be shifted as they fill their
pots with roots, and give plenty Of
sunshine and air. Otherwise they
will be leggy and weak.
If you wish to get specimen cannas
and dahlias, start few in the house
early. Remove roots, stalks, and un-
necessary fiber and cut into single
eyes. Then pot in four-inch pots in
rich soil; shift when the pots fill with
roots. The Gamma, like corn, needs
moisture and heat to develop properly.
Let the hedge take the place of the
fence where possible about the house
grounds. If the fence is imperative,
let it be hidden by drapery of vines,
,Honeysuckle is the best permanent
vine.
California privet leads the hedge
plants in popularity; then comes bar
berry, Japanese ounce. althea, buck
thorn and some varieties of roses.
For utility the Usage.
A flower friend says she rid her lemon
tree Of scale by applying a strong
lather of soap suds with stiff brush
to both sides Of the leaves. stems and
trunks. This was allowed to remain
for half a day and then washed of
with clear water. The scale was then
easy to brush of.
If you got gloxinia bulb this spring,
next spring experiment growing these
gorgeous boomers. Fill we'll
drained, shallow pot or box with fine,
light soil; even it carefully and scat
ter the seeds on it. Press the seeds
into the soil with fiat block of wood.
Put a pane of glass on the pot and
water from the bottom. They will
bloom the first year, but the second
year will greatly improve them.
Don't transplant into the garden any
sort of tender plant, or hardy one that
has been tenderly coddled, until Jack
Frost is gone.
Don't forget that rotation in the
flower bends and borders is as neces-
sary as in the fields and gardens.
Srch hardy flowers as pansies. for.
get-me-nots and phlox, and the like,
that have been grown in a cold frame
and hardened, may be planted out
six weeks before tender or hot house
plants. N

APPLE SITUATION FAR
FROM DISCOURAGIhG

Despite the prevalence of the opin-
ion among orchardists in some quar-
ters that there has been an oyer.pro-
duction OF the American apple crop
this year and that low prices must
prevail as q result there Is no sub
stantial foundation for such a belief.
On the contrary there is much en-
couragement in the market quotations
to believe the demand for apples Will
be good and that Colorado growers
will receive better prices for their
fruit this season than for several
years past The latest OF reports made
public by the department OF agricuI-
turei and the various trade and pro-
duce journals arc TO the effect that
the apple crop OF the country is not
as prodigal as was supposed would be
the case a couple OF months ago and
that the improved business conditions
in the industrial centers of the east
will result in a greater request for IL
than has been the case for long
time.
So far as the product OF Colorado
orchards Is concerned there is moth
ing to cause pessimism and the apple
growers OF the Canon City district are
in position to view the situation with
considerable complaisancy and salts
faction. There is not a particle of
reason for them to become stampeded
upon the subject as the indications
are favorable for market for all the
fruit they have to sell at a remunera-
tive figure. In none OF the apple pro-
ducing states is the crop as heavy as
II was believed Il would be during the
summer months and none of them
have a surplus for shipment TO Colo
RADIO. In the Grand Junction and
Montrose districts the yield is seventy.
five per cent below the average and
Fremont county orchardists will have
less competition this year from the
Western Slope In the markets OF this
state than for long period. The
Canon City district and other apple
growing sections of the Rocky Noun
tain region cannot supply the demands
of Colorado without outside help.
which seems impossible at this time.
Owing to the epidemic which has
heretofore prevailed among con-
signees In the Missouri river markets
OF turning down carload shipments
to obtain rebates" II has been uncer-
tain what Canon City dealers could
afford TO pay for apples. Now that
the turn is coming such tactics on
their part can not much longer win.
Fruit growers who can store their
product will. no doubt. hold their ap-
pies until outside buyers learn that
they must say what our good fruit is
worth In order to get It.
Oregon and northwestern grown ap-
pies generally are fetching higher
prices than similar fruit is here and
are going to eastern markets in large
quantities. They do not compete
with our fruit and we have nothing
TO fear from them. Eastern grown
apples arc being shipped In states
west of the Misnissippi to help make
up . shortage IN the crop. It may

AANURIGl1
TnE NEWEST
DISCOVERY IN CHEMISTRY

This is a recent discovery of Doctor
Pierce, who is head of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo,
n. Y. Experiments at Doctor Pierce's
Hospital for several years proved that
there is no other eliminator of uric acid
that can be compared to it. For those
easily recognized symptoms of inham-
nation = as backache, Ecalding urine
and frequent urination, as well as sedi-
ment in the urine, or ii uric acid in the
blood has caused rheumatism, Il is
simply wonderful how surely rAnuricD
acts. The best of results are always
obtained in cases of acute rheumatism
in the joints, in gravel and gout, and
invariably the pains and stiffness which
60 frequently and persistently accom-
pany the disease rapidly disappear.
Go to your nearest drug store and
simply ask for q 50-cent package of
q rAnuric," manufactured by DIR. Pierce,
OF even write Doctor Pierce for a free
sample. If you suspect kidney or blad-
der trouble, send him a sample of your
water and describe symptoms. Doctor
Pierce's chemist Will examine it, then
DIR. Pierce will report TO you, without
fee or charge.
NOTE - French scientists affirm that
rAnuric" is thirty seven times more
active than lithia in eliminating uric
acid, and is harmless but reliable
chemical compound that may be safely
given to children, but should be used
only by grown-ups who actually wish TO
restore their kidneys to perfect health,
by conscientiously using one box-or
more in extreme cases as rAnuric"
(thanks TO Doctor Pierce's achieyement)
Is by far the most perfect kidney and
bladder corrector obtainable.
