What is Pe-m-na. Are we claiming too rouch'for Peruna when we claim it to be an effective remedy for chronio catarrhT Have we abundant proof that Peruna la in real ity such a catarrh remedy? Let us see What the United States Dispensatory Bays of the principal Ingredients of Peruna. . - Take, for Instance, the ingredient hydrastis canadensis, or golden seal. The United States Dispensatory says of this herbal remedy, that it is largely employed in the treatment of depraved mucous membranes lining various organs of the human body. Another Ingredient of Peruna, cory dalis formosa, is classed in the United States Dispensatory as a tonic. Cedron seeds is' another ingredient of Peruna. The United States Dispensa tory aays of the action 6f cedron that It la need as a bitter tonic and in the jeatment of dysentery, and in inter mittent diseases as a substitute for quinine. Bend to us for a free book of testi monials of what the people think of Pe runa as a catarrh remedy. The best evidence is the testimony of those who have tried It. Tallest Tree In the World. The tallest tree in the world so far as hus been ascertained is an Austra lian gum tree of the species eucalyptus regnans, which stands in tbe Cape Ot way range. It is no loss than 415 feet high. Gum trees grow very fast. There is one in Florida which shot up forty feet in four years and another in Guat emala which grew 120 feet in twelve years. This corresponds to a rise of ten feet in a year, or nearly one foot per mouth. Too Bloch Swimming Hoi. Noah was plainly grumpy. "Drat thnt dear old swlmmln'-hole poetry '." he exclaimed. .

The two inn In pieces In the frame of the sweep are ninde of 2 by 4 Inch pine scantling; they are 12 feet long and about 20 Inches apart. The teeth are made of 2 by 4 Inch scantling, and are 0 feet long ; they are beveled ou the lower side to slide over uneven ground. The arms for hitching the whittle trees to should project about , 2 feet 0 Inches over the end of the sweep; these are made of 2 by 5 Inch stuff. The gulde aruis should be 9 feet long by 2Vi by 3 Inches. Each has about a foot of chain with a ring on the end to fasten to the breast strap of the harness.

Some tlnve years ngo the California station tried spraying with blue vitriol to hold lu check mustard ou Its cereal plantings at Yuba City and came to the same conclusions as did the Wisconsin sta tion. At Davis during the present sea son experiments lu a limited way were tried with copperas, but owing to the lack of facilities for properly applying the compound results-were not satisfac tory. The work will be repeated anoth er time with the most approved appliances. a THE SWEEP BAKE.' inch stuff; this Is rnised nbout a foot above the sweep to keep the hay from sliding back too far over the sweep. It should be braced about four feet from sach end. The wheels are 18 Inches In diam eter; and a piece of Inch gas pipe Is used for an axle. It Is clumped to the teeth, two pins with washers being used to keep the wheels from sliding sideways and rubbing against the teeth. The piece projecting at the back under the sweep should extend about two feet; it Is beveled like a sleigh runner; It is to keep the teeth from raising too high where riding ou the empty sweep. In hitching horses to a sweep that have never been used on one a person can get best results by tying the halter shank to the end of the guide-arms and making both lines the same length on the harness; then fasten one line to each ring of the bit. When It Is desired to turn the horses to the right, simply hold the off horse back, and drive the nigh one ahead, and he will naturally wing around to the right. In drawing a sweep load of hay on to the stacker draw It as far ahead as possible, then back the horses and raise ends of teeth, and drive ahead again; this will pack the hay on the stacker and less of it Is npt to fall back on the ground when being raised to the stack. The most convenient size of stack to build Is 1Q feet wide by about 23 feet long. Montreal Star. Simple Bus Teater. The average person evidently Imag ines that It Is Impossible for the denier to distinguish between bad eggs and good eggs. This sup position Is natural, Inasniucbas so many eggs of questionable mrity reach the din ner table. If the dealer desired he could readily dis card eggs of doubt ful age, as there are ego tester. numerous devices for testing them. One of the most re cent Is shown In the accoinpanxlng Il lustration, patented by a Minnesota 'armer. It consists of a wooden frame or casing across 'the top of which Is a leather support for the eggs, the latter resting in flexible apertures. In tbe bottom of the casing Is an Inclined mir ror. Mounted on the upier part of the frame is a light-reflecting hood In which Is placed a lamp or other suitable tllunilnitnt. In operation eggs arc placed over the aperture, and the light falling on the eggs will enst a shndow upon the mirror If they are unsound. The soundness of the eggs Is Indicated by .the clearness of the light thnt falls through them lipon the mirror. Eradicating Wild Muxtnrd. One of the most pestiferous weeds Is the wild mustard, but recent experi ments in Wisconsin seem to give prom ise that, it may be quite easily and cheaply exterminated. It hns been known for several years thnt spraying a field with blue vitriol would kill mus tard without injuring the grain which Is growing. But the attendant expense hns been the chief objection to a wide use. The Wisconsin station has been making some, tests with copperas, or iron sulphate, that indicate that It is quite as effective as the blues tone, an 1 Learn Hon to Sell. Alons the farmer has no more chanri with the market combine than a rabbit has with a hungry bulldog. Collective ly he may hold his own and get a fair price for his produce. Figure a bit Five cents a bushel added to the price of wheat means a gain of $1 to $1.30 per acre. One-half a cent per pound menns a gain of $." In every 1,000 pounds of beef or pork or mutton. Co operation In selling will bring these advances and more. Twenty-five cents a bushel added to the swoet potato crop In four years has raised the growers of Tidewater County, Virginia, from pov erty to respectable wealth. Southern cotton growers have made $3,000,000 a year clear profit above the average by sticking together. Organization Is the "big stick" of commerce and it is tlniw for farmers to learn to use it Lifting Heavy Timbers. When It becomes necessary for one man to handle a heavy weight, such as a log or burn timber which must be lifted, it enn be done without n strain by making use of the trick shown In tbe sketch. I'sing small blocks, build a crib under the center of the log by lifting up one end, allowing the log A." TRICK IN TIMREB HANDLING. to balance near the center.' When lifted ns shown hi dotted outline place an other timber under the long end, and then repeat the operation. Farm and Home. Tomatoes from Italy, Tomatoes are imported In lnereasbig quantities ench yenr from Itnly. The quality of these tomatoes Is stated to be good and the prices low. Large quantities of canned tomatoes are also shipped now each season from Itnly to ' the eastern part of the United States, nnd the American shipments to Italy are much smaller than formerly. It Is suggested by one of the leading Import ers in Liverpool that the American to matoes are frequently packed before they are fully ripe, and that this prac tice renders them undesirable for use The Italian tomatoes are carefuly se lected, and are only packed after they have attained a ripe and rich color. Ars( Wo Scrub Formers f We are nil npt to practice scrub methods of farming, For Instance, we allow the winter to pnss without mak ing the necessary preparation for spring work. We plow around stumps and big stones year after year; we plo.v through mudliolcs and harvest n rrop of weeds when a few tiles and a little labor would cause them to grow iho iK-st crops on the farm. We do not mow our roadsides nnd we allow our grass to become overrlpo before we cut It Doesn't pay. Keep DlKWlnic In he Corn Field. Some ambitious farmers are anxious to lay by the corn field very early ; but It Is not wise, for the grass and weeds are always more forward to grow about this season than any other, and the ground will become very foul where tho corn is too early laid by and, more than this, a great proportion of the nourish ment of the crop is derived from the Hlr and dew conveyed to tbe roots. Tills can be done only when the surface is free from weeds. Invest In a Sprayer, No farm work pays better than spraying the trees, berry bushes ami grains vines. Attention to this matter at tbe proper time assures immunity from Insect enemies and good crops of perfect fruit are the results. Don't sprny fruit trees while the bloom Is on, for thnt kills bees nnd bees are vnlunble assistants in pollenlzlng fruits. A spraying outfit for the farm need not be large and costly, and will have Its own value the first year it is used
