' 0LB SOKES BY IMmiRITIES IN THEIBtOOO Whenever a sore refuses to Heal it Is because the blood Is not pure and healthy, as it should be, but is infected with poisonous germs or some old blood taint which has corrupted and polluted the circulation. Those most usually afflicted with old sores are persons who have reached or passed mid dle life. The vitality of the blood and strength of the system have naturally begun to decline, and the poisonous germs which have accumulated because of a sluggish and inactive condition of Which has hitherto been held in check, now force an outlet on the face, arms, legs or other part of the body. The place grows red and angry, festers and eats into the surrounding tissue until it becomes a chronic and stubborn uleer, fed and kept open by the impurities with which the blood is saturated. Nothing is more trying and disagreeable than a stubborn, non-healing sore. The very fact that it resists ordinary remedies and treatments is good reason for suspicion; the same' germ-producing cancerous ulcers is back of every old sore, and especially is this true if the trouble is an inherited one.

Tho first nainwl Is largely planted for sugar making, and they are rich In sugar. The ImiKjrlul Is also a good sugar beet for sugar mak ing. In this Item, however, attention Is called to these two sorts as being especially valuable to raise for the win ter feeding of stock and especially of the cow. Being rich In sugar, they will sup ply much food matter, and at the same time give the needed amount of green or succulent food so much needed by cows during the winter. Neither va riety Is especially new, but they have OOOD BEET VAHITIES. not been so freely planted - as they should be. The seed Is low In price, and It will pay any one with stock to plant a small field. Both varieties are exceedingly productive, and they will grow In any good soli. How to Find Scale Insects. Prof. Troop of the Indiana Experi mental Station gives the following di rections in a recent "bulletin : In look ing for the scale Insect most persons will pass It by unnoticed on account of Its very small size. The female scale Is only one-twenty-flfth of an Inch In diameter, while the male Is only about half that size. The shape of the fe male Is nearly circular, while the male Is more elongated. The female is sharp ly convex or conical In the center. This last characteristic will help to distin guish It from many of the other more common species. Its color Is nearly like the bark on which it Is found. An. other distinguishing character Is found In the reddish discoloration of the bark Immediately surrounding the scale, ex tending through both the outer and In ner bark. These characters will enable one with an ordinary pocket magnify ing glass to readily detect the presence of the Insect Handy Fencing Device. A very handy device to be used In handling barbed wire is shown- here with. Take two strips 2 inches wide and 80' Inches long and bore holes through each end. Through these, says Farm and Home, put old broom han dles or any round stick, and fasten by driving a nail through the square tim ber. Leave one loose so that It can be put through the reel of wire as shown BABBED WIRE HEEL. In the out The spool of wire may be enrolled by drawing It over the ground with this simple device. Cowpeaa aa Orchard Cove. Growers of peaches are using cow peas as cover crops In the orchard. The vines shade the land, and may be turn ed under when the pods are nearly ripe, or may remain as a mulch In winter. It is more profitable to use the vines for food for cattle, but, at the same time, if a mulch Is required, it Is well to grow the mulch, especially when a leguminous plant answers so well. One advantage In growing the cowpea Is that It Is almost a sure crop, and lime or wood ashes may be used as a fer tilizer with It. The peach orchard will In no manner be Injured by growing the cowpea as long as the land is given the' benefit of the crop by plowing the plants under. Modern Methods. Farmers have for hundreds of years been engaged In opposing every at tempt to Improve them In their meth ods of farming. Hundreds of farm ers' wives work dally at churning In a manner that Is most laborious, tak ing an hour or more to do what could be performed In a few minutes If they were not 'too prejudiced "against "fancy farming" to use a thermometer. They have no faith in "book farming," and pay dearly for refusing to be convinced. Effect of the New Heat liavr. One highly Important result of the new laws regulating the meat packing business may already be seen In the toiidenoy to keep more stock. "I am goln? to im-rense my herds a little," a leading' fanner says; and the argu ments he uses are these: More pork, beef and mutton will be eaten here after. Folks are satisfied now that the packers will send out only good, pure meat, and they will use It freely. Some one must grow the cattle to make this meat. We might as well all have a i hand in it. Not that all should drop! everything else and put the eggs all into the meat-growing basket ; if we did that there would be a big crash, but we can keep more stock and make It pay. j And this Is a sensible view to take of the matter. It will mean better times for farmers all over tne country. Corn C'nNlvatlon. When cultivating young corn it must be done In a manner to destroy all weeds; hence shallow, cultivation may not answer, as the weeds must be de stroyed by any method possible, rather than to permit them in the cornfield. But after the corn Is well advanced. It may prove detrimental to run the cul tivator deep, as it then cuts many roots. Itoot cutting has been tested and found Injurious. After the weeds are killed the only work required is to keep about an Inch or two of the surface soil loose, In order to conserve moisture, as well as to put an end to any young weeds that may be ready to start The Dtao Harrow. Too much reliance is placed on the disc harrow as a substitute for the plow. There Is no Implement more, use ful than the disc harrow In some lines, but Its place Is to cut up the sod and render the soil fine after the land has been plowed though farmers frequent ly use the disc harrow for preparing stubble land, leaving out plowing al together. There Is something more In plowing than simply loosening the ground for seed. When land Is proper ly plowed It holds more moistures, ab sorbs warmth rapidly and permits of greater feeding capacity for plants. Draw-Knife Bench. Make a bench of some heavy timber (2-lnch oak), 6 feet long and 12 or 14 Inches wide. Next take a piece of some 20 or 24 inches long and 3 or 4 inches DBAWKNIITC BENCH. wide, and shape like (C). Nail one on each side, as In cut after having bored a hole near the middle of each. Nail on end piece (D). Nail on (B), hav ing first chiseled a bole 6 or 8 Inches long and 3 or 4 Inches wide In It to admit of lever (F). Better Cultivation. The farmer should endeavor to In crease his proportion of wheat by bet ter cultivation rather than by planting more acres. The latter method Is be ing adopted In other countries that have the available area. Our people have an Immense area of wheat culture In for eign lands to compete with, lands where labor Is cheap. Europe, except perhaps In Russia and Roumanla and India, hare dense populations and are less dangerous competitors. European and Asiatic Russia, Argentine and perhaps before many years large areas of Af rica will be In the market against us. We must diminish the cost of produe tlon by Improved methods. Texas Stock and Farm Journal. Abont Chickens, Keep the early pullets for next year's layers, and kill off all the young cock erels for market, so as to give the pul lets more room. They should be kept In good growing condition, so as to reach maturity before November, In or der to become winter layers. Late pul lets seldom begin to lay until spring. Two Gallons in One Egg, Worth $300, an egg of a tall, flight less bird, the aepyornls maxlmus, Is on exhibition In Liverpool. This gigantic bird made Its home In Madagascar, and only twenty of its mammoth eggs are known to exist Each Is a foot long and nearly a yard, In circumference. One will hold two gallons of water. Breeding Salty Onions. Joseph Zuch, an enterprising garden er of Marietta, Pa., succeeded In rais ing a variety of onions which hare salt flavor, so that no seasoning at all Is necessary, whether eaten raw or stewed. Thinning Apples. The effort to produce the seeds of apples exhausts the tree more than to produce the much larger quantity of meat, because seeds contain a much larger proportion of the mineral ele ments. As much meat (or pulp) can be grown on 500 fine, large apple trees as upon 1,000 small, Inferior ones, but the production of seeds will only be one half as great This "thinning" not only adds to .the value of the present crop, but economizes the energies of the tree for future use.
