Deafness is caused by an in flamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets In flamed you have a rumbling sound or imper fect hearing, and when It is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the Inflamma tion can be taken out and this tube restored to Its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out ot ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inllained condition of the mucous surfaces.

Piskham: It Is with pleasure that 1 add my testimony to your list, hoping that it may induce others tc avail themselves of your val uable medicine. " After the birth of my little girl. three years ago, my health was very poor. 1 had ieucorrhoea badly, and a terrible bearing-down pain which gradually grew worse, until 1 could do to work'. Also had headache nearly fell the time, and dizzy feelings. Men itruations were very profuse, appear ing every two weeks " I took medicine from a good doctor, but it seemed to do no good. I was becoming alarmed over my condition, when I read your advertisement In a paper. I sent at once for a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound, and after taking two-thirds of the bottle I felt so much better that I 6end for two more, After using three bottles I felt as strong and well as any one.

Here is a good plan for keeping butter cool In summer. In the middle of your cellar floor dig a hole or vault three and one-half feet deep and three and one half feet square. Wall it up with brick laid in lime mortar and cement and floor It with soft brick. Lay a frame t of good hard wood in mortar upon the top of this vault Hinge to the frame a trap-door of plank two inches thick, making It fit smoothly over the top. Then after the cream Is separated and cooled put It down in the vault to ripen. Butter may be kept there in the agree able coolness, also. If you have no separator, put the cream Into your vault as soon as you have skimmed it, there to cool and ripen. Once or twice a week clear out the vault and wash It thoroughly to prevent Its getting moldy. Pour cold water upon the soft bricks of tho floor. They will absorb it and cool the air. This is a very suc cessful way to keep milk, butter and cream cool In hot weather on farms where there Is no Ice,---V alley Farmer, CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED THE STAVE SILO. piece of galvanized sheet Iron say two inches wide and as long as the staves are wide.

This breed Is an old-established one, It being mora than a century Blnce Its founding in Hereford, England. Early in the present century it was recognized ts a valuable beef breed. Records of sales -om 1709 to 1811 show that twenty oxen brought for beef an average of 100 6s., or about $330 each. The Herefords and Short horns were active rivals during those early days, and the competition be tween tlym is still very close. In color, the Hereford is a red of varying shade, generally light with clear white face, white line of greater or less length along the back, white brisket white brush and white feet The horns are medium to long, white. waxy and generally turning outward, forward, and sometimes downward. In form they are blocky, squnrp built with rather short legs, and all meat points full and rounded.

First cut down the woods with a lawn mower or a scythe. Rake the weeds off and chop out all of the old plants, leaving runners about a foot apart in the rows, and hoe between the plants, as well as cultivate well be tween the rows. The object should be to have the ground deep, soft and per fectly clean of grass and weeds. The runners (which should be those sent out from the parent plants of last spring) will send out runners, and form a new matted row. Keep the rows clean and use fertilizer liberally, ap plying it close to the plants on the sides of the rows and working it well Into the soil ' , Newly Cleared Land. If any one wants to know what diffi culties the early settlers in wooded sec tions had to encounter, let him make a clearing In some wood lot and then try to grow a crop among the stumps. He will break more plow points and har rows working this land than the crop will be worth when grown. Jut the early settlers had at least one advant age, and' that was that their newly cleared land was free from weeds. In all the older settleu parts of the coun try there are many bad weeds among the trees in the woods, the seeds of which have been carried there by birds or other animals. A Handy Wheelbarrow.

The oat crop ripens so late that if the land is infested with Canada thistles the latter will sometimes blossom and be ready to ripen their seed before the oats can be harvested. But there is a time when the oats will not be headed out, while the thistles fully grown are towering several Inches above them. A man going through the fields with a scythe can rapidly lop off the towering thistle heads. There will be other this tles come up later, but they will not be early enough to ripen their seeds when the oats are harvested. ! 1 !l 1 imp If You Suffer ' from Epilepsy, Epileptic Spells, Pits, St. Vitus' Dance, Falling; Sickness, Vertigo, etc., have children or relatives that do so, or know people that are afflicted, My New Discovery,' Epilcpticidc, Will euro them, and all you are asked to ; do is to send for a Free Bottle and try it 1 1 am quite prepared to abide by the 1 i result It has cured thousands whert 1 everything else has failed.

It used to be thought that the heifer calf, because she was Intended to be come a cow rather than fattened for beef, could be starved and stinted on almost any kind of food during Its first year, and be, perhaps, a better cow therefor. We do not believe In feeding calves Intended for cows with food that has a fattening tendency. Skim milk Is much better than whole milk for them, and wheat bran with some middlings mixed with it Is a better diet to make growth than Is corn or other grain. But it does not pay to starve any calf. It necessarily weakens the digestive or- Give Weak Auimila a Chance. Separate the younger from the older stock when feeding.
