Hood's Sarsaparilla effects its wonderful cures, not simply because it
contains sarsaparilla, but because it combines the utmost remedial values
of more than 20 different ingredients, each greatly strengthened and en
riched by this peculiar combination. These ingredients are the very rem
edies that successful physicians prescribe for the same diseases and ail
ments. There is no real substitute for Hood’s Sarsaparilla. If urged to
buy any preparation said to be “just as good,” you may be sure it is in
ferior, costs less to make, and yields the dealer a larger profit.

the chocolated tablets know n as Sarsatabs. 100 Doses One Dollar.

There are various ways suggested to
ill ake a ewe mother her own lamb or a
twin from another ewe that has not
enough aiilk for both.
Some advise whipping the ewe into
subjection, but this is very cruel and
seldom satisfactory, When a ewe loses
her own lamb and it is desired to make
her own another it has been recoin-
mended to skin Iter own dead lamb and
tie the pelt over the lamb that is to
be adopted.
This plan Is sometimes satisfactory
If the ewe's sense of smell is not very
keen, although it more often falls.
Other breeders have tried tying a dog
near by, claiming that the maternal in
stinct of the ewe will exert itself and
it will own the lamb while trying to
shield it from the dog.
Perhaps the most satisfactory meth
od when a ewe refuses to own her
lamb Is to fasten her in between hur
dles.
This gives her a chance to eat and at
the same time prevents her from turn
ing around to butt the lamb. In such
a position, however, the ewe will often
lie down. This may be prevented by
passing a light pole through the hur
dies, resting It ón the lower bars be-
neath her belly.
The ewe can be confined this way
throughout the day, and If the lamb
is nt all lively he will manage to get
enough to oat. The ewe should always
be released at night.
A day or two • of such confinement is
often sufficient to bring an obstinate
ewe to reason, Such hurdles can eas-
lly lie made by any farmer, and ft Is
well to have tl hem on hand for just
such emergencies.

The work curried on by the bureau
relates entirely to Injurious Insects,
and the direct object of this work is
to discover remedial measures and to
make them known to the public. The
object of the work, therefore, is of the
most practical character, and every ef
fort is devoted to the practical end. It
has been conservatively estimated that
the United States suffers an annual
economic loss from injurious insects of
one kind or another of surely $700,000,-
000. This estimate includes the dam-
age done to agricultural industries, to
live stock and to stored products, to
forests and forest products, and to
other property, but it does not Include
the economic loss to communities and
to the nation through the lessening of
the productive capacity of the popula
tion through the prevalence of diseases
that are carried by the Insects, such as
malaria, typhoid fever, yellow fever,
and possibly many others.

Owing to tlie very limited digestive
capacity of swine for file consumption
of bulky feed, corn cobmeal is not very
satisfactory for purposes of swine
feeding. This class of farm animals
can use a much more concentrated feed
Ilian any other class ami are much
more inconvenienced by the presence
of an excessive amount of crude fiber
In rations, owing to their small stom
ach capacity. We should much prefer
cornmeal to corncob on that account.
Brood sows or other hogs with plenty
of framework could use a little corn
cob meal to better advantage, but we
see no particular reason In supplying
it because such material contains prac
tically no nutriment, and, whlle it Is
sometimes used to make a ration more
bulky for sheep ami cattle, it is a pos-
Itlve hindrance to swine.
Prone Poetry.
A North Missouri farmer whose hoi
was killed by a train wrote to the com
pany's claim agent for a settlement,
lie penned his communication thus:
"Dear
Sir—My razorback strolled
down your track n week ago to-day.
Your twenty-nine came down the line
and snuffed his life away. You can’t
blame me. the hog, you see, slipped
through a cattle gate, so kindly pen a
check for ten, the debt to liquidate.“
He receive dtlie following reply: "Old
twenty-nine came down the line and
killed your hog we know, but razor
backs on railroad tracks quite often
meet with woe. Therefore, my friend,
we can not send the check for which
you pine. Just plant the dead, place
e'er it* head, ‘Here lies a foolish
swine.' "—Waif.

For Alfalfa Bloat.
If a case of alfalfa bloat Is discov
ered in time an ounce of hyposulphite
of soda, dissolved in water, and given
as a drench will prove effective. This
can be repeated every half hour for
two or three doses. Two ounces of aqua
ammonia, well diluted with water or
common soda, in half ounce doses can
be given. Many cases of bloat can be
relieved by causing the animal to
stand with the hind feet in a ditch and
the fore feet on the bank, as this po
sition causes belching. From two to
ten minutes’ time Is required. Some
people claim to have observed that ex
perienced bloaters learn to get them
selves into such a position for blow
ing off the burden. Blankets wrung
out of cold water and wrapped around
the abdomen or cold water dashed on
with a bucket often gives relief.
