Shetland mares are remarkably pro-

BUILD THE FENCE. PROPERLY
Absolutely Necessary to Construct II
Well In Order to Secure Maximum
Amount Of Service.

To get the maximum of service out
of a fence it is absolutely necessary
that it should be well built. The cor
ner posts must be placed solidly in the
ground in such a manner that they
cannot be heaved by frost or drawn
loose by the pull of the fence.
The fabric should be strung tightly
to the end posts. but it ought not to
be tightly stapled to the line posts. 1t
should be fastened to line posts In
such manner that the wires may move
in horizontal direction to take care
of the contraction and expansion due
to changes i'm temperature, and to dis
tribute the force of a blow along the
fence line so that the strain will not
come entirely on any one or two posts
or any one point of the WIRE
A barbed wire should be placed a
short distance above the top of the
woven wire to prevent cattle and
horses from crowding it down when
reaching over or rubbing against the
fence.

TIME FOR CUTTING TIMOTHY
Most Palatable and Nutritious If Har-
vested Just Before Ripe, Says
Missouri Station.

Timothy hay to make the most pal
atable and most nutritious feed should
be cut before ripe. Investigations
made at the Missouri experiment sta
ton showed that timothy cut during
the period from blossOming time .tv
the shedding of the bloom was pre-
ferred by cattle to ripper hay and that
they received more nutrition from it.
1t Is usually the custom to harvest the
timothy crop when it is nearly or
quite ripe. but the above mentioned in
vestigation would go to prove that
earlier harvesting would be more ad-
vantageous.

What the Doctor Knows
KIDNEYS MUST BE RIGHT TO
INSURE HEALTH.

Few people realize to what extent their
health depends upon the condition of the
kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases of
serious illness, makes a chemical analy-
sis of the patients urine. He knows that
unless the kidneys are doing their work
properly, the other organs cannot readily
be brought back to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health sta
tistics, Bright's Disease, which is really
an advanced form of kidney trouble,
caused nearly ten thousand deaths in one
year, in the State of New York alone.
Therefore, it is particularly necessary to
pay more attention to the health of these
important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
remarkable success as kidney remedy
is DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great
'udney, liver and bladder remedy.
The mild anu -lealing influence o. this
preparation, IN most cases, is soon real
lied, according to sworn statements and
verified testimony of those who have used
the remedy.
When your kidneys require attention,
get swamp Root at once from any phar-
macy. 1t is sold by every druggist in
bottles of two sizes-5oc and $l.OO.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
