    N HONEST DOCTOR

MR. SYLVESTER E. SMITH, Room
218, Granite Block, St. Louis, Mo.,

was a doubt as to my recovery.

me to take Feruna, which I did and in
a short time my health began to im

"I am using your Peruna myself, ana

Feet of the Horse.
The usefulness of a horse depends
largely upon the quality of his feet If
they are sound and well taken care of
he is able to travel and work well,
but if they are defective and neglected
his usefulness is impaired and he can
not be depended on In any emergency,
as he Is liable, when his services are
most needed, to become partially if not
wholly disabled, resulting in serious
loss to his owner. But few horses are
born with perfect feet, yet the defects
by cartfui trertment are often entire
ly cured ; also many horses with sound
hoofs are practically ruined by the
ignorance or carelessness of black'
8m It lis.
The proper shoeing of horses and the
general care of their feet is a matter
that should receive the strict attention
of every farmer, and yet, as a rule,
it Is wofully neglected. The farmer
should have knowledge of the natural
formation of a horse's foot, so as to be
able to determine whether the animal
is being properly shod or not, and
while that is being done he should
never go away and leave the smith to
slight the work to get through with it
or butcher its feet if he does not un
derstand his business.
While , no definite rules for shoeing
horses can be given, gome general prin
ciples are acknowledged by, all "com
petent horseshoers, aameU-, the heel
should never be cut except to remove
a ragged point. The same is true of
the frog, which Is an elastic cushion,
Intended to reduce the Impact of a sud
den shock to the foot. The butterls
Is an Instrument that may do an. im
mense amount of "damage In the hands
of an incapable operator. Much mis
chief is done by it every day.
When the toe is too long and projects
beyond the hoof, it causes stumbling
and it should be shortened. A hot iron
should never be applied to the foot to
Ascertain Its evenness, as many black
smiths do merely to save time, when
they know it is not right. A seared
surface between the hoof and the shoe
makes the contact less perfect and the
shoe necessarily less rigid than it ought
to be.
The outside of the hoof should not be
rasped more than Is necessary to cliucb.
the nails, as this thins the crust and re-:
duces the strength of the bearing sur
face of the foot. Weakening and decay
are sometimes the result of this prac
tice. Oil applied to the hoofs occasion
ally during dry weather is beneficial.
To Tell a Horse's Age.
At four years old each jaw shows
four permauent teeth, whose tables are
worn to the same level. The dividers
are worn upon both of their borders.
Looked at from the side, the corner
'eth are quite small.
.l:-'...5SS.iite
At four and a half years the nippers
show wear on both edges. The corner
teeth and the hook or canine teeth are
ia evidence.
Depth of Cyclones.
From the study of clouds an official
of the United States Weather Bureau
concludes that the ordinary cyclones
which traverse our country from west
to east are not more than two or three
miles in depth, although their diameter
is many hundreds of miles. In othr
words, their motion docs not affect the
upper regions of the atmosphere.
In the case of hurricanes, this au
thority finds that the depth is greater,
amounting to as much as five or six
miles. But higher currents blow direct
ly across the cyclonic and antieyelonic
areas which produce storms and fair
weather at the surface of the earth.
This new theory tends to offset form
er ideas concerning the circulation of
the atmosphere.
An Agricultural Pest.
So great have been the ravages
caused by the dodder a leafless, twin
ing, parasitic plant that a decree has
been issued by the French President
prohibiting Its Importation into the
country. It is a veritable agricultural
scourge, attacking and destroying hops,
vines, clover, peas, tomatoes and many
other kinds of agricultural produce.
Once having found Its way Into any dis
trict. It is most difficult to get rid of
and constitutes a permanent source of
inxlety to the farmer. Cutting down.
urn!ng and poison have all been fried
w ith unsatisfactory results.
TV
ruprnfltable Experimenting.
In the entire realm of scientific in
vestigation there is nothing more inter
esting and marvelous than the growth
and development of plants from the
begirulng or the germination of the
setd to the reproduction of the germ,
Each species of plant has Its distinct
ive character, ami life habits and ouly
flourishes where natural conditions are
favorable to Its growth. To attain any
degree of perfection, the soil and clim
ate combined must be such as the
plants require, although a moderate de
gree of success may be attained when
either of these factors are not exactly
suited to its growth, but where both
are deficient In nny considerable de
gree the plant can not be successfully
grown, except by artificial means
whereby the necessary natural condi
tions are created. If the chemical com
position of thesoll Is favorable, and
climatic conditions unfavorable, the
letter can be created artificially such
as protection from cold and excessive
heat and lack of moisture and, like
wise, if the soil Is deficient in the
chemical elements which the plant re
quires, they can be added to, but In
either case the process Is laborious and
expensive and the results unsatisfac
tory. All plants are indigenous to
certain kinds of soil, and all soils are
especially adapted to the growth of
certain kinds of plants, and nature can
not be improved upon In any way, nor
can her deficiencies be successfully
remedied by artificial means.- In order,
therefore, to be successful in his busi
ness, the farmer must "keep close to
nature and mark well her ways." He
must raise only such crops as are best
adapted to the soil of his farm, In ac
cordance with Bis experience, and
wholly rfrain from extensive experi
ments with such as are of doubtful
utility.
Keeps Chickens at Home.
An Iowa man has designed an anti
flying chicken-wing attachment having
in view to prevent the annoyance and
J M m lial damages incident
to chickens scratch
ing In your neigh
bor's garden. The
device Is attached
to the chicken's
wing. It is made
of parallel pieces
of wire bent into
STOPS FLYING.
the form of an el
bow, with a hook at the bend.
To apply the attachment to a chick
en's wing it is slipped over the wing,
and by placing the parallel sides toward
each other the hook can be snapped In
position and retained by the resiliency
of the wire. The hook will be on- the
Inner corner of the wing and will pre
vent the device from slipping off. The
chicken will thus be-prevented from
spreading the wing as required to fly
and thereby unable to get over a fence
Into the neighbor's garden.
Houses of Corn Cobs.
In some parts of Europe corn cobs
are used for building purposes. The
cobs are collected and taken to a fac
tory, where heavy compresses crush
and mold them into blocks of various
sizes, Just as bricks are variously
molded. These blocks are then bound
with wire so as to make them hold to
gether. They are then soaked in tar
to make them water-tight, and ere
ready for use after this treatment Of
course, they are much lighter than
bricks, are always dry, and make good
houses. This Is but one of the very
many ways iu which Europe shows a
greater economy than Amerca does.
There is little over there which goes to
waste. Even the refuse and garbage
of Paris is made to serve a purpose by
being burued and converted Into pow
er.
Cost of Feeding Hens.
Bulletin No. 115 from the West Vir
ginia Experiment Station gives the
first year's record with 000 hens. It
gives pictures and descriptions of
houses, method of handling, amounts,
kinds and cost of feed nnd egg produc
tion. The cost of feed for the year
was 89 cents per head ; total cost $1.42
per head. The fowls averaged 113 eggs
each, valued at $2.43, so that each hen
returned a net profit of $1.01.
How to Feed Out Silage.
Owing to the constant contact of the
air with the top layer of silage it Is
necessary to remove a horizontal layer
of silage to a depth of not less than
one and one-half Inches daily to pre
vent any from spoiling. If this fact
is kept in mind when building a silo
its diameter can be made such as to
make possible tho feeding of a layer
of this depth daily with the amount o'
live stock on hand. John Michels.
Distribution of Mammals.
The distribution of mammals over
the earth shows many curious features.
North America, Northern Europe and
Asia have many families in common.
Such animals as wolves, foxes, bears
deer and moose, beavers, squirrels and
rabbits live all around the Northern
Hemisphere. The mammals found on
isolated Islands are of surpassing In
terest to the naturalists.
The Care of Sheep.
Overfeeding or sudden changes from
poor to very rich food, combined with
want of exercise. If not actual causes,
will contribute to the development of
the loss of wool among ewes.
