Gladness Comes
With a better understanding of the
transient nature of the many phys
ical ilia, which vanish before proper ef
forts gentle efforts pleasant efforts
ritrhtly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that bo many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi
tion of the system, which the pleasant
iamiiy laxauve, oyrup vi r ign, pruuipu
lv removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with mill ions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value pood health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acta. It is therefore
all important, in order to get its Dene
ficial effects, to note when you pur
chase, that you have the genuine arti
cle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere. Syrup of

Transplanting Lome Tree.
When a large tree Is removed from

small, fibrous roots may not be greatly

Feedln-r Vnlua of Apnteo,
We do not think enough of the value
of the orchard for feeding Its fruits
to the farm animals. Apples are nu
tritious, and tin aid to the good diges
tion of other food. The mild acid of
them Is excellent for the health of the
stock and we all know how gratefully
they will receive a feed of them at auy
time. For the cows they are especial
ly desirable; a peek of them chopped
and sprinkled with meal of any kind
will help much to add to the flow of
milk of the cows. Horses love this
fruit, and lliey tend to help In the shed
ding of the coat, by their gently laxa
tive effect. When the selection Is made
for the spring planting, a few of some
of the sweet varieties, ripening from
the summer to the whiter, should not
be forgotten for this use. We may be
gin with the early Sweet Bough for the
first, then the autumn Sweet Bough
and the old Pumpkin Sweet, and for
latfr use there ore the Talman Sweet
and the Wlnesap, all productive sorts
and unexcelled for this use as well as

Locating- the Pear Orchard.
A slightly descending slope Is most
favorable In order to precipitate drain
age and the discharge of surplus sur
face water, hut It is not essential that
any particular polut of the compass
should be secured. Shelter from the
rake of the wind Is Important. The
pear Is a' companionable tree and will
luxuriate when supported by other
trees around It. In close garden cul
ture a degree of humidity Is preserved,
and there is less evaporation from the
foliage where the strong winds are
broken, the growth will he more vigor
ous and healthy. There must, however,
be sufficient ulr and sunlight to ninture
the wood and the fruit. If the site la
high. It will be an advantage to plant
nil evergreen bent to the windward,
both for the health of the trees and also
to prevent the fulling of the fruit dur
ing high winds. On the other hand, a
low, cold and peaty position, subject to
fogs and frosty nights. Is objectionable.
A strong, retentive loam Inclined to
clny Is a preferable soil. Fruit Grower.
Hipcnlntr Cream.
A good way is to hold the cream at a
temperature of sixty degrees for twelve
to fourteen hours after the first taste of
acid Is apparent, and then judgment,
formed from experience, will do tho
rest. The method for warming the
cream for ripening Is an right, but It
will be necessary to keep the tempera
ture of tje room at about the tempera
ture it is desired to keep the cream.
For a starter, some ripened cream or
buttermilk from the previous churning
Is often used to "start" the rlpeulng. A
better starter Is made by taking some
skim milk from a healthy, fresh-milk
ing cow, warm It up to 85 or 00 degrees.
and bold It at that tempreature till It
becomes thick. Tut Into the cream

It will be found sufficiently ripened.

Cob Charcoal for Rok
Fattening bogs eat charcoal greedily,
but that made by charring corn on the
cob is eaten best, and this in our ex
perience has proven all that Is needed
to keep them In health. Rut In one of
the Minnesota Farmers' Institutes,
Theodore Louis tells bow be makes cob
charcoal on a large scale where bogs
are kept by the hundred. He digs a
hole five feet square at top and five feet
deep. Into this be throws some cobs,
setting fire to tbem as they are thrown
in until the hole Is filled. Then the bole
Is completely covered, banking earth
against the edges of the cover. In 12
hours uncover, and the cobs will be
found completely charred, so that they
will easily crumble. Six bushels of
tbis is then mixed with eight pounds
of salt, two quarts of air-slacked lime
and a bushel of wood ashes. Dissolve

If on every furm more attention is
paid to the home' dniry, a better prod
uct of butter will be turned out, and a
greater yield per cow will be realized.
The better the article the more sure the
sale; and the larger the yield per cow
the greuter the net profit.
Never try to do dairy work with beef
cattle Never trust alone to the pas
ture to supply the food. Be sure to
have necessary conveniences of the
best kind for securing the full quantity
of butter fat from the milk. Every
home dairy should raise Its choicest
heifer calves, In order that the supply
of good dairy cows may be kept up.
It will pay for the trouble and ex
pense. Beside the ready sale at nil
seasons for good butter, the milk can
be utilized In many ways, and the
droppings In the barnyard will be valu
able as a fertilizer. Build up the home
dairy on a strong basis.
Spring has come.
It is time for all persons to think
seriously of their health.
But that doesn't mean taking the
first spring romedy that happens to be
offered.
Persons who make it their business
to got the most effective remedy to be
had are sure to carry home Puinu's cel
ery compound. No other remedy is
capable of cleansing tho blood, nourish
ing the nerves and regulating the
bowels and digestive organs like Paine's
celery compound.
If you are troubled at all by rheuma
tism, neuralgia, headaches or sleepless
ness, even if these attacks come only
now and then, now is the time to purify
the system of them. Don't procras
tinate and dally till frightened into
doing something when you find the
task of getting well has asumed desper
ate proportions.
Paine's celery compound will oure
kidney trouble, heart palpitation and
disordered liver accurately, intelligently
and permanently v-hen other remedies
only raise hopes that are never fulfilled
Paine's celery compound, which owes
its origin to the most distinguished phy
sician and investigator this country
ever produced, Prof. Edward K. Phelps,
M. D., LL.D., of Dartmouth oollege,
nas been publicly Indorsed among
medical experts as the only spring rem
edy in any sense entitled to that nnme.
It can be said without fear of con
tradiction ' that no other remedy can
truthfully refer to men and women so
responsible, so trustworthy, so convinc
ing, because of their straighforvviird,
enthusiastic and easily-verified testi
monials in praise of Paine's celery
compound.
It is foolish to take poor health
"philosophically" these spring days.
There is no reason why anyone should
sit hands in lap, and submit to head
aches, poor appetite, continual tired
feeling or constipation. If every dis
heartened invalid will go right at get
ting well by using Paine's celery com
pound, that person will be astonished
and delighted with the quickness with
which this wonderful remedy is able to
call a halt to wasting disearas, diseases
of debility and a "run-down"' condi
tion. Paino's celery compound does won
ders in milking people well.
Here is what a woman, an ambitious
and hard-working member of the legal
professiion in New York city, says of
this great remedy:
220 4th Ave., Now York.
While a student in tho New York
university law school and under great
pressure from work and study, I was
adviHed to take Paine's celery com
pound. I did so, and its beneficial re
sults to one wliosu nerves are under the
trial of severe mental effort, I am only
too ready to assert. After taking three
bottles I found that it produced quiet
ness of noi ves and induced sleep, very
beneficial to my health. For those
troubled with insomnia I can heartily
recommend it as a harmless inducer of
sleep on account of its quieting effect
on the nerves. Yours very truly,

The oat crop will make a fair success
where other grains would fail. But It
needs rich soil quite as much as any,
and Is especially benefited by phos

low, because the crop Is generally put

have grown 00 bushels of oats per acre
on a four-acre field planted the previous
year with potatoes, and with 150
pounds of fertilizer drilled In with the

A Pretty Face
Tells a story of health. It Is the reflection of
strength In all the vital rarts. A face is ex
pressive of joy and mirth, caused by health, or
of misery and suffering, caused by disease. The
nerves that are irritable and tired cannot give
brightness to the eye ; blood that is sluggish
cannot make the checks rosy; so ill health tells
its story, too. But nature provides a cure for all
such troubles.
