The most desirable hitching strap Is
one which gives the horse plenty of

being placed on the market In the

securing It to the stall. The upper end

Strength. W hen this life stream is Cowing through the system in a state of
purity and richness w e are assured of perfect and uninterrupted health;
because pure blood is nature’s safe-guard against disease. When, however,
the body is fed on weak, impure or polluted blood, the system is deprived of
its strength, disease germ s collect, and the trouble is manifested in various
ways. Pustular eruptions, pimples, rashes and the diJerent skin affections
•how that the blood is in a feverish and diseased conauion as a result of too
much acid or the presence of some irritating humor. Sorts and Ulcers are
ihe result of morbid, unhealthy matter ia the blood, and l .neuraatism, Ca
tarrh, Scrofula, Contagious blood Poison, etc., are all deep-seated blood
disorders that w ill continue to grow worse as long as the poison remains.
These impurities and poisons find their w ay into the blood in various ways.
Often a sluggish, inactive condition of the system, and torpid state of the
avenues of bodily waste, leaves the refuse and waste matters to sour and
form uric and other acids, which are taken up by the blocxl and distributed
throughout the circulation. Com ing in contact with contagious diseases is
another cause for the poisoning of the blo o d ; we also breathe the germs and
microbes of M alaria into our lungs, and when these get into the blood in
•ufficient quantity it becomes a carrier of disease instead of health. Some
are so unfortunate as to inherit bad blood, perhaps the dregs of some old
constitutional disease of ancestors i s handed down to them and they are
constantly annoyed and troubled with it. Bad blood is the source of all dis
ease, and until this vital fluid is cleansed and purified the body is sure to

upon which to carry plenty of meat
They nre not coarse or bony, yet males
weigh from nine to ten pounds and

They have the rich yellow skin and

Coal nshos should always be sifted

As a general rule there Is more profit

It does not cost any more to keep

I have rained (x»rn and Hoy lumn»
together with g«*»»! remilta, but my ex-
perlence on the whole 1» Ut advise
farmers not to grow them together. It
mude the corn exccmHngly hard to cut,
as the ma»H ot vegetation wan so heavy
that the corn and bean» tumble«l In
ev«.*ry direction from the heavy winds.
I believe It 1« better, on rich land, tq
grow each of the crop» separately, nays
an Ohio farmer. When the land ia not
ao rich and It Is not desired to cut and
shock Ihe corn, any beans can be grown
to advantage to turn hogs or cattle on
after the c«»rn la gathered. The most
satl»fu«*tory soy bean that I have tried
I" the i*nrly yelb«w variety known as
llollybrook ; they are some three weeks
earlier than the mammoth yelh/w, grow
a fine quality o f vine arid an excellent
ylebl of se«-«l. It grows off more
promptly than the mammoth and gets
out o f the way of w«-ed» and grass
sooner, and for the same reason It Is
not ao much In the way In cultivating
a corn crop. If It Is desired to plant
them In a cornfield And one decided
advantage they have over the mam
moth. they do not shell so badly after
getting ripe.
