The Best Way.

The cheapest and best way to ham
die manure, where convenient, is to
haul it to the field and spread it daily,
or at least every two or three days.
In this way if plenty of bedding be
used, practically all the valuable con-
Stituents of the manure are saved,
since teaching after the manure is on
| arabic land merely serves to put the
fertilizing materials where they ought
to be. In this way, too, loss through
! heating, or fire anging," is avoided.
Many farmers, however, are not so
| situated as to mako it profitable for
! them to handle manure in this way.
| For such farmers the concrete manure
| pit offers an ideal way of saving
manure. Such a pit need not entail
great expense A pit feet deep, -
| feet long and feet wide, with walls
, and floors 5 inches thick, will serve
| the needs of the average farm. In
| ground that does not cave in, only an
| inside form will be needed for such
| Il pit, except where the concrete ex-
tends a few inches above the ground
to prevent flooding by surface water.
! The floor should be reinforced with
woven wire fencing, put in after about
| two inches of cement has been laid.
the section of fencing being cut, long
| enough to bend up q few inches at
| either end into the side walls. When
the reinforcing has been put in, the
remaining three inches of the floor is
| laid, and the forms for the side walls
set up and used Immediately. Use one
part cement, two of sand, and four of
| screened gravel. A pit-of this kind is
large enough to hold the accumula-
| ton of manure on the average farm
until such. time as it can be hauled
/ conveniently to the field and spread.

SYRUP 0F FIGS FOR
 \ CH|LO'S BOWELS
It is cruel to force nauseating, harsh physic into a
 sick child.

Look back at your childhood days. Remember the "dose" mother insisted on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics. How you hated them, how you fought against taking them.
 With our children it's different. Mothers who cling to the old form of physic simply don't realize what they do. The children's revolt is well-found- ed Their tender little "insides" are injured by them.
 If your child's stomach, liver and bowels need cleansing, give only deli cious California Syrup of Figs" It's action is positive, but gentle. Millions of mothers keep this harmless fruit laxative" handy; they know children love to take it; that 1t never fails to clean the liver and bowels and sweet en the stomach, and that a teaspoonful given today saves a sick child tomor- row.
 Ask at the store for 50-cent bottle of California Syrup of Figs" which has full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly on each bottle. Adv.

Frog Hide in Skin Grating.

A successful method of skin graft ing, in which frog skin is used instead of human skin, as covering for slow healing wounds, is described in the British Medical Journal by Capt. H. ". M. Kendall. Wounds in which the skin has been destroyed heal natural ly with contracting scar, which is often unsightly and inconvenient, but this method leaves a neat and supple scar. Frog skin can be obtained in abundance at the front. The loose skin on the inner side of the frogs leg is shipped off with scissors, spread out and applied by its under surface to the wound, which has been cleansed without antiseptics. It is then fixed in place by covering of guttapercha tis- sue and dry dressing. In three days the site of the graft appears as a spot branching outward toward the edges of the wound. After the fifth day the wound is dressed with boric ointment until healing is completed, all contrac. ton being avoided.

 In this part of the country there are good many hunt clubs. Over in district the willy and elusive fox ire quently Is hunted by men and women in pink riding clothes, who take ditches and occasionally stone walls with the abandonment of the old-time fox hunters of Galway, Ireland.
 The hunt clubs are to form a part of the inaugural day parade. One of them will be marshaled by woman, young and good-looking woman who daringly rides to hounds across coun- try on every occasion when the dogs are let loose and the fox breaks from cover. These hunt clubs cannot be included In the freak class. The horses are thoroughbreds and every man and woman is a fine rider. Moreover, they are all undergoing little preliminary military drill which will enable them to keep the line perfect and to de- part not from the order of formation unless perchance some luckless hound in the street crowd should start its hue and cry, and habit, stronger than the check rein, make the horses mo- mentarily forget themselves.
