7henever a sore refuses to Heal it Is because the blood Is not pure and
healthy, as it should be, but is infected with, poisonous germs or some old
blood taint which has corrupted and polluted the circulation. Those most
usually afflicted with old sores are persons who have reached or passed mid
dle life. The vitality of the blood and strength of the system have naturally
begun to decline, and the poisonous germs which have accumulated because
of a sluggish and inactive condition of the system, or some hereditary taint
which has hitherto been held ia check, now force an outlet on the face, arms,
legs or other part of the body. The place grows red and angry, festers and
eats into the surrounding tissue until it becomes ar chronic and stubborn
uleer, fed and kept open by the impurities with which the blood is saturated.
Nothing is more trying and disagreeable than a stubborn, non-healing sore.
The very fact that it resists ordinary remedies and treatments is good reason
for suspicion; the same germ-producing cancerous ulcers is back of every
old sore, and especially i3 this true if the trouble i3 an inherited one.

Hovr to Find Scale Insects.
Prof. Troop of the Indiana Experi
mental Station gives the following di
rectlons in a recent bulletin: In loot
ing for the scale Insect most persons
will pass It by unnoticed on account of
Its very small size. The female scale
Is only one-twenty-flfth of an Inch In
diameter, while the male Is only about
half that size. The shape of the fe
male is nearly circular, while the male
Is more elongated. The female Is sharp
ly convex or conical In the center. This
last characteristic will help to distin
guish It from many of the other more
common species. Its color Is nearly
like the bark on which It Is found; An
other distinguishing character Is found
In the reddish discoloration of the bark
immediately surrounding the scale, ex
tending through both the outer and In
ner bark. These characters will enable
one wlth--an ordinary pocket magnify

of the Insect

A very handy device to be used In
handling barbed wire Is shown here
with. Take two strips 2 inches wide
and 30 -Inches long and bore' holes
through each end. Through these, says
Farm and Home, put old broom han
dles or any round stick, and fasten by
driving a nail through the square tlm
ber. Leave one loose so that It can be
put through the reel of wire as shown

In the cut The spool of wire may be
enrolled by drawing It over the ground
with this simple device.
t'owpeas a. Orchard Cover.
Growers of peaches are using cow-
peas as cover crops in the orchard. The
vines shade the land and may be turn
ed under when the pods are nearly ripe
or may remain as a mulch In winter. It
Is more profitable to use the vines for
food for cattle, but, at the same time.
If a rmilch Is required, It Is well to
grow the mulch, especially when a
leguminous plant answers so well. One
advantage In ' growing the cowpea Is
that it Is almost a sure crop, and lime
or wood ashes may be used as a fer
tilizer with It. The peach orchard will
In no manner be Injured by growing the
cowpea as long as the land is given
the benefit of the crop by plowing the
plants under.
Modern Methods?
Farmers have for hundreds of years
been engaged In opposing every at
tempt to improve them In their meth
ods of farming. Hundreds of farm
ers wives work dally at churning In
a manner that is most laborious, tak
ing an hour or more to do what could
be performed In a few minutes If they
were not too prejudiced against "fancy
farming" to use a thermometer. They
nave no raitn in "dook farming," and
pay dearly for refusing to be con
rlneed.
Effect of the New Meat Law.
One highly Important result of the
new laws regulating the meat packing
business may already be seen In the
tendency to keep more stock. "I am
goln? to Increase my herds a little," a
leading fanner says; and the argu
ments he uses are these: More pork,
beof and mutton will be eaten here
after. Folks are satisfied now that the
packers will send out only good, pure
meat, and they will use It freely. Some
one must grow the cattle to make this
meat We might as well all have a
hand In It. Not that all should drop
everything else and put the eggs all
Ino the meat-growing basket ; If we did
that there would be a big crash, but we
can keep more stock and make It pay.
And this Is a jonsible view to take of
the matter. It will mean better times
for farmers all over tne country.
Corn CnKlratlon.
When cultivating young corn It must
be done In a manner to destroy all
weeds ; hence shallow cultivation may
not answer, as the weeds must be de
stroyed by any method possible, rather
than to permit them In the cornfield,
But after the coru Is well advanced It
may prove detrimental to run the cul
tivator deep, as It then cuts many roots,
Hoot cutting has been tested and found
injurious. After the weeds are killed
the only work required Is to keep about
an Inch or two of the surfnee soil
loose, In order to conserve moisture, as
well as to put nn end to any young
weeds that may be ready to start
The Dlao Harrow.
Too much reliance Is placed on the
disc harrow as a substitute for the
plow. There Is no Implement more use
ful than the disc harrow In some lines.
but Its place Is to cut up the sod and
render the soil fine after the land has
been plowed though farmers frequent
ly use the disc harrow for preparing
stubble land, leaving out plowing al
together. There Is something more In
plowing than simply loosening the
ground for seed. When land Is proper
ly plowed It holds more moistures, ab
sorbs warmth rapidly and permlta of

Better Cultivation.
The farmer should endeavor to In
crease his proportion of wheat by bet
ter cultivation rather than by planting
more acres. The latter method Is be
ing adopted In other countries that have
the available area. Our people have an
Immense area of wheat culture" in for
eign lands to compete with, lands where
labor Is cheap. Europe, except perhaps
in Russia and Roumnnia and India,
have dense populations and; are less
dangerous competitors. European and
Asiatic Russia, Argentine and perhaps
before many years large areas of Af
rica will be In the market against us.

About Chicken..
Keep the early pullets for next yearfc
layers, and kill off all tlie young cock
erels for market, so as to give the pul
lets more room. They should be kept
In good growing condition, so as to
reach maturity before November, In or
der to become winter layers. Late pul
lets seldom begin to lay until .spring.

' Breeding Salt? Onion..
Joseph Zuch, an enterprising garden
er of Marietta, I'a. succeeded In rais
ing a variety of onions which have Bait
flavor, so that no 'seasoning at all Is
necessary, whether eaten raw or
stewed.
Thinning Apples.
The effort to produce the seeds of
apples exhausts the tree more than to
produce the much larger quantity of
meat, because seeds contain a much
larger, proportion of the mineral ele
ments. As much meat (or pulp) can be
grown on 500 fine, large apple trees as
upon 1,000 small, Inferior ones, but the
production of seeds will only be one
half as great This "thinning" not only
adds to the value of the present crop,
but economizes the energies of tha tree
for future use.
