The Fight Is On
Every rnoment of your life when
you are at homo or abroad,

Between the poison germs that are in air,
food and water, everywhere in fact,
and the billions of your invisible friends,

If those little soldiers are kept strong
and healthy by taking Hood's 8arsa
parilla, you need have no fear of dis
ease. Begin using it at once if you are
at all under the weather, or have
troubles of the blood, stomach, liver
and kidneys. Get it of your druggist.

Lame Back Prescription.
The increased u-e of whiskey for
lame back rheumatism is causing con
siderable discussion among the medical
fraternity. It is an almost infallible
cure when mixed with certain other
ingredients and taken properly. The
following formula is effective: "To
one half pint of good whiskey add one
ounce of Toris Compound and one ounce
Syrup Sarsaparilla Compound. Take
in tablespoonful doses before each meal
and before retiring." Toris compound
is a product of the laboratories of the
Globe Pharmaceutical Co., Chicago, but
it as well as the other ingredients can
be had from any good druggist.

Make the Dairy Vay,
There are 21,l!)l,(Xio inllcli cows In
the United States an average of one
cow to four of the population. The
fact that there litis been an Increase
jkt capita of the consumption of milk
and n decrease of cows per capita of
the population Indicates that there has
been nn improvement In the quality of
the dairy cows of the country.
In the decade of 181)0 to 1!K)0 the
average production of every dairy cow
showed nn Increase of 1,(XK) pounds of
milk, or a commercial gain of $211,
000,000. Yet with this improvement ad
mitted, there are many dairies that are
b Ing operated at a loss. The life of a
dairy cow Is estimated at seven years
and her annual depreciation represents
one-seventh of her full value, which is
taken Into consideration In computing
the profits of the herd. If the dairy
man would ascertain If his herd Is pay
ing a profit he needs to charge for the
help to operate It, the cost of the
feed, the interest on the Investment and
tLe normal depreciation of the value
of the cows. All these items enter Into
fixed operating charges and need to be
deducted from the gross receipts of the
dairy before profits can be computed.
The receipts of the dairy should not
only pay the operating expenses and
fixed charges, but also leave a liberal
balance for profit.

Take two 12-incli boards and nail them

long on a slant, as shown by dotted

easily. Next cut two circles 4 Inches
In diameter. Nail one' to the large
wheel on the hack and leave the other
loose on the shaft to act as a bearing.
Make a frame to admit the wheel,
leaving 2 inches clear, and just wide
enough sn the knives do not strike the
side. Make a top over the wheel, and
put n hopper on the opposite side from
the crank. The knives are 8 Inches

An application of l.oco pounds of
lime per acre was practically as effi
cient in case of oats as an application
of .,0H.) pounds In tests made at the
New Jersey station. In the ease of
clover the larger application gave the
belter results. Lime in the form of
carbonate produced more dry matter
than nitrogen and ash burned lime.
The results of the studies of nitrogen
fixation were quite Irregular, but agree
In general In indicating that the addi
tion of fertilizer materials increased
nitrogen fixation and that carbonate of
lime favored nitrogen fixation to a
greater extent than burned lima
American Iilmlm(cer Cheene.
It Is now claimed that the United
States makes just as good llmburger
cheese ns does the province In IM
glum where it originated. The Ameri
can method Is to" take a piece of a
calf's stomach and set it away in a
warm place in a can of whole milk. In
about forty minutes the curdling mes3
is pounded and then the whey pressed
out Afterward forms are filled and
further drainage permitted. Salt is
rubbed on the outside until it becomes
slippery ; then the cheese is set away
in the cellar to ripen for a month or
two and the germs do the rest
Tobacco Growers Combine.
The Union Tobacco Society, repre
senting tobacco-growing Interests In
Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee
and Wisconsin, with estimated assets
of $30,000,000, has been organized. The
purpose of the organization is said to
be to protect the tobacco growers from
a minimum price, nnd the consumer
from a maximum scale. The interests
of the growers in the States named
will he pooled and the tobacco sold
through a Board of Directors.

Around the Dairy.
There must he no guesswork about i
feeding the calf. The stomach or tuo
young calf Is easily ruined by slipshod
methods of feeding. Think of this when
tempted to feed It milk that Is too hot
or too cold In a bucket that Is not ns
clean nnd sweet as It should he.
Milk that sticks to the sides of the
pall and becomes sour Is a bad propo
sition, ns It may cause nn attack of
the scours. This trouble means n break
In the calf's growth, perhaps a stuided
calf, and. in the end an animal of little
value.
Do not oblige the cows to bunk about
the straw pile until the chilly nights
are past. Dry spots for them to sleep
on are usually very scarce at that sea
son of the year.
Don't turn the cattle to pasture too
early. A good plan to follow is to wait
until you conclude the grass Is suffi
ciently large to turn them on, then
wait a week or ten days longer.
A Self-Feedlna- Crib.
A combined corn crib and feeding
shed is shown in the sketch. The feed
bunk is covered by a lean-to shed Id
feet wide. Small dxrs opening into
the crib every two feet Just over the
manger allow the corn to come out
without shoveling. This shed should be
built on the south side of the crib In a
bright, sunny place. This arrangement
is a great labor saver and quite an aid
In bad weather, especially if the ends
are inclosed. Farm and Home.
Uxes of Corn.
The Crop Reporter is endeavoring to
tell for what purposes, corn is used. In
the year 1S1H), so this authority states,
the total crop was 2,it;ti.O(K.i,000 bushels.
Of this crop 241,000,000 bushels were
consumed in the flour nnd grist mills;
K,(K lO.Oiin In manufacture of starch, 0,
OUMHiO for malt liquors, 17,000,000 In
distilling of liquors, 40,000,000 for glu
cose, IKO.OUO.OOO for export, and 13,
000,000 for seed. This accounts for
only 10.3 per cent of the entire crop,
most of the remainder being used for
feeding purposes. The more one studies
the corn crop, the more interesting it
becomes. Its magnitude as a food
gfver nnd labor-employer grows with
every observation one makes of the
corn crop. Springfield Register.
Farm Wells.
Unsanitary dairy wells are n menace
to health, and ns the country becomes
more closely settled more nnd more
care is necessary to provide good water.
The director of the Chicago hygienic
laboratory reports that of 153 wells on
near-by dairy farms, examined by the
inspectors, only eleven were found to
be safe for domestic purposes. In ail
cases the safe wells were those linel
with cement, with cement covers, with
a protecting flange of cement several
feet out from the well. In some of the
wells used for washing milk utensils
a high percentage or' colon bacteria
were found, and in some cases manure
could be detected microscopically and
by the odor.
Millet for I,nte Crops.
Millet as n late crop to plant in case
of the failure of the corn crop or fail
ure to get corn planted at all. Is rec
ommended by the Ohio station. The
earlier sorts can be seeded through
July, and make fair fields. Hay is tlu
most common use made of t he crop,
and for this it compares favorably with
timothy, both In composition and di
gestibility. It is good feCd for cattle,
horses and sheep, but when overripe
should not be fed to horses exclusively,
as It affects the kidneys. Millet is also
grown for pasture seed, and even for
silage. As a soil cleaner, it is also al
most equal to a summer fallow.
German Mode of Preserving; Milk.
A German patent specification de
scribes a process for preserving milk
by removing all dissolved oxygen by
means of the addition of a small quan
tity of ferrous carbonate. The process
Is based on the fact that freshly-precipitated
ferrous carbonate in the pres
ence of oxygen immediately assimilates
oxygen and evolves an equivalent quan
tity of carbon dioxide. One part of
ferrous carbonate Is sutHclent for .10,
000 parts of milk, and the- properties
of the milk are not altered In any way
by the addition, which should be made
before the milk Is boiled.
Cribbing Corn.
The corn crib should be natrow and
siatted on the sides and ends, so that
a free circulation of air is possible in
all directions. Some farmers place hol
low crates in the cribs as they are
rilled, so that there will be no heat
ing or spoiling In the center of the
mnss. Heating destroys the corn germ
Molasses CaUe.
Into two-thirds of a cup of molasses
stir a tablespoonful of melted butter,
two-thirds of a cup of coffee, a half
cup of sugar, one beaten egg, one and
a half teaspoonfuls of soda dissolved
In a tablespoonful of hot water, and
one and one-half cups of flour. Mix
wil and bake In a lonf tin.
