The most important part of the human system is the blood. Every mus
cle, nerve, tissue, bone and sinew is dependent on this vital fluid for nour
ishment and strength necessary to maintain them in health and enable each
to perform the different duties nature requires. Even the heart, the very
' engine " of life, receives its vigor and motive power from the blood. Since
so much is dependent on this vital fluid it can very readily be seen how
necessary it is to have it pure and uncontaminated if we would enjoy the
blessing of gqod health. Bad blood is responsible for most of the ailments
of mankind ; when from any cause it becomes infected ; with impurities,
humors or poisons, disease in some form is sure to follow. Muddy, sallow
complexions, eruptions, pimples, etc., show that the blood is infected with
unhealthy humors which have changed it from a pure, fresh stream to a
sour, acrid fluid, which forces out its impurities through the pores and
glands of the skin. A very common evidence of bad blood is sores or ulcers,
which break out on the flesh, often
from a very insignificant bruise or
even scatch or abrasion. If the blood
was pure and healthy the place would
heal at once, but being loaded with
impurities, which are discharged into
the wound, irritation and inflamma
tion are set up and the sore continues:
Bad blood is also responsible for
Anaemia, Boils, Malaria, etc.; the
weak, polluted circulation cannot fur
nish the nourishment and strength
required to sustain the body, and a
general run-down condition of health
results. S. S. S. is nature's, blood
purifier and tonic ; made entirely of
Vipalino- iMnsincr roots find herbs.
It goes down into the circulation and removes every particle of impurity,
humor or poison that may be there, restores lost vitality, and steadily tones
up the entire system. It adds to the blood the healthful properties it is in
need of, and in every way assists in the cure of djsjease. S. S. S. neutral
izes any excess of acid in the blood, making it fresh and pure, and perma
nently cures Eczema, Acne, Tetter, and all other skin diseases and eruptions.
S. S. S. cures Rheumatism, Catarrh, Sores and Ulcers, Malaria, and all
other diseases or disorders arising from bad blood. Book on the blood and

was run down in health, and having seen your
medicine highly advertised I commenced its use.

American Aarlcnltnre.
Although agriculture in America Is
young compared with some of the Euro
pean and Asiatic countries, it has been
developed to such an extent that the
older countries look to us for Ideas and
methods to help them solve the farm
problems they have to meet. Our sci
entists and investigators are among the
foremost in the world and as an agri
cultural nation we need stand aside for
none. To be sure, agriculture owes
many of its greatest scientific discov
eries to English, German and French
experimenters, but, in aggressiveness
and practical development of Ideas
America is one of the leaders.
Other nations are sending their sci
entists to America to study how we do
things here. Our country presents most
of the agricultural problems, to be met
with in the countries of the old .world
and we aTe finding out how to solve
them, andthe old world wants to know
how we do It. A Japanese expert is
now in the United States to investigate
our methods of improving worn-out
soils. He says: "We have in Formosa
over 500,000 acres under cultivation
and we want to find out how the United
States goes about It to improve the con
dition of its land, sc we can improve
our country." This is but one instance
of where we are sending our ideas
abroad.
We have every reason to be proud of
our agricultural advancement, much of
which is due to our State experiment
stations and federal Department of Ag
riculture. Goodflll's Farmer.
Machine (or Waahlna- Cans.
The old method ,of cleaning milk
cans, lard cans and similar receptacles
will In the near future be superseded
by a very Ingenious apparatus Invent
ed by a Boston man. As shown in the
illustration this can-washing machine
washes the cans and automatically de-
WASHES MILK CANS.
Doslts them on th floor, where the han-
'dles can be conveniently grasped, avoid
I ing the labor of lifting them. The cans
travel while being cleaned on a mova
j ble dhaln, each can being placed .over
' an upright nozzle which holds It in po
sition. The various nozzles are con
nected to a supply pipe through which
Is forced a cleaning fluid or steam. The
latter la forced out through the nozzle,
thoroughly cleaning the interior of the
can. The nozzles also act as guides to
deposit the cans on the floor after they
have traveled the length of' the chain,
the operation being performed automat
ically and smoothly without injury or
accident
Bora Dead Animals.
In the attempt to stamp, oat hog
cholera and other contagious diseases
among live stock the matter of burn
ing all dead animals Is one of consid
erable Importance. Outbreaks of dis
ease have frequently been traced to the
careless disposal of the carcass of an
Infected animal. Burning is much more
effective, than burying, as the germs of
some diseases, as anthrax, for example,
retain their vlrlHty for a considerable
length of time. Then in burying car
cases, unless they are placed very deep
in the ground, there Is always more or
less danger of their being rooted or dug
out Dogs will dig open such graves
and hogs will root them out
Those who have attempted to bury a
hog or hoTse'will readily appreciate the
statement that it Is easier to burn than
bury them. A little kerosene and
brush heap will soon dispose of a car
cass, with the certainty that all germs
are destroyed. Some recommend the
construction of a specially arranged
furnace for this work, but on the ordl
nary farm this would doubtless be an
added expense. It will not be a diffi
cult matter on any farnf to gather
enough trash.i such as brush, old rails,
etc., to burn a dead animal and the ex
pense is Inconsiderable. Anyway, It Is
the only aafe way to Insure against In
fection. , .
Bees help to make the crops and pay
the farmer for the privilege. They are

Alfalfa seed has a light olive-green
color and is about the same size as red
clover seed. The dead and worthless

seed indicate old seed, and Is not apt
to give good results.
A first-class quality of red cloven
seed should be of fair size, purple and
yellow colors predominating, and al
ways with a luster. If It Is small,

Yellow Rut Parasite oa Wheat
An Instructive account is published
in the Experiment Record of the De
partment of Agriculture of the manner
in which the yellow rust parasite acts
upon susceptible and resistant varieties
of wheat. In an experiment with Mich
igan Bronze wheat, and "rust-proof"
Eingorn, young seedings of each were
Infected by placing spores on the leaves.
In the Michigan wheat the germ tubes
passed into the Inner tissues and devel
oped rapidly, producing pustules h
about ten days. In the case of the re
sistant Eingorn wheat the germ tubes
made good their entry, but almost in
the beginning showed, through the mi
croscope, weakness and starvation, and
were unable to make further progress.
The, wheat plant continued to flourish,
except for the Bmall dead area where
the fungus entered the leaves. The rea
son for this resistance is unknown, but
Is supposed to be due to some toxic
principles in the" host plant. V
Keep Ahead of the Weeds.
The Importance of keeping ahead of
the weeds Is realized by every success
ful agriculturist At the beginning of
growth in the spring weeds start up
and lead the farmer a merry chase as
lone as the growing season lasts. He
must keep at them or they will get the
start and go to seed, thereby Increasing
their numbers many fold. "Eternal vlg-
lahce Is the price of liberty" In the
fight against weeds. A thoroughly
practical fanner recently remarked
that he thought the problem of weed
eradication one of the most Important
the farmers have to face. It is Indeed
one of considerable moment " "
Breeding Dairy Cowl,
In breeding dairy cows a man should
have a definite object in view. Too
many shift from beef to dairy when
dairy products are low, and then shift
back asaln from dairy, to beef when
beef rises in value. By this method
man is constantly shirting from one
breed to another, and as a result he Is
getting a herd that is good for neither
milk nor beer. A man must nave an
Ideal toward which he is breeding and
then bend all his energies to that end.
This shifting from one breed to another
Is a suicidal policy that will ruin any
man and any herd. Kansas Experl
ment Station.

How Wire Fences Murder Cattle,
"The time of thunder storms is com
Ing," said a farmer, "and I am liable to
lose a cow or two. My barbed-wire
fences are to blame. In fact, you might
call a barbed-wire fence a cattle mur
derer. ' '
"The wire, you see, attracts the light
nlng. The lightning, playing like a gold
snake along the fence, leaps out wher
ever there's a cow handy, and I've got
another lot of fresh meat on my bands.
"In the old rail-fence days a cow
killed bv liehtnlng was unheard of.
But now, If you go to Insure your stock
you pay a higher rate if your fencing
Is of wire."
Mora Horse Meat.
In 1006 60,000 horses were slaugh

about 12,000 tons of meat Formerly
horse meat was eaten by only the poor

regarded as refuse meat and Its con
sumption by the working classes Is rap-
Idly increasing throughout Europe.
