Coat'y Crop feata. The proceeda from the wheat crop, tbe average annual farm value of wbloh ma be roughly put at four hundred million dollars, have la more than one ear been cut down aa much aa lift per cent aa a result tbe raragee of the chinch bug and the Hessian 11. King Cotton alone was damaged to tbe extent of nearly Aft million dollars by tbe so-called Meil csn bolt weevil, In tbe single State ef Texas, In 1000, according to a care ful! compiled report IkMied by tbe Causae Bureau. Tbe apple crop baa been reduced aa much as twent-lve per cent in many seasona through tbe operations of the codling moth and other Inaocts. So one might go through tbe entire list Tbe burden Is dla tresslngty heavy, but It Is safe to a a aert that farm era theinaolvee who, obviously, ought to know as much of this phftae of the matter as anybod will agree that tbelr loascs, lu praetl call every Instance, would be far greater were the scientific knowledge of the Department of Agriculture's staff not put to account A careful survey of the facts leads to the conclu slon that the total damage each ear would be from two to four times as large wore It not for the Dopartment of Agriculture's unremitting warfare ngalnst tbe peats, and that a maxl mum annual destruction of two billion dollars, or nearly one-half the whole yearly value of tbe country's crops, at present, would be possible. C. Arthur Williams In "Success Magazine." Water for Horaea. The amount of water required by horses varlos more than for any other nnlmal. It Is greatly affected by work and feed, being about twice as great when tbe horse Is at .bard work and much greater when fed on dry roughage than when fed on a con centrated ration. In one exp3riment a horse while walking required 27.3 pounds of water dally, whllo trotting and porformlng ho required GO pounds. Farm and live Stock Journal. Value ef Ueary Bod. While not for a moment advocating extravagance It Is safe to sav that most farmers ought to add one-half more, at least, to the quantity of grans seed tbe use both In tbe first seed Ing and tbe reseedlnc of meadows Not only should this be done In order to get better crops of bay and to have a growth of grass Instead of wia which find a place where the seeding is light, but In order that when the sod Is to be turned under it Is of tha greatest possible value te the crops Wmmm A Oood Stock Toalc. Each of tbe many atock food a, or coudlmental aplcea now on the market baa Its own particular couipoaltlon. and It la better, both from the poluta of view of economy and cleaullna. to make Ut of tbeae, but If thla la quite hupoMtble the following recipe may I safely adopted: Turmeric, one naif pound; cumin, one-half pound; gentian, tbree-fourtha pound; grouud ginger, one-ha If pound; gralna of paradlxe, one-half pound; bi carbonate of aoda, six ounce; fenugreek, six ounce; blood root four ounces; aeafoetlda, four ounces, brown augar, five pound; fine salt 1 3-4 pounda. Tbe above In gredients should be well ground by tbe druggist and be thoroughly mixed with one thousand pounda of finely ( ground meai. or, ir aesirea, it may be fed without tbe meal. When mixed with maize meal the quantity to be fed to a boree, cow, or ox at each feed Is one pint, and to each calf, foal, abeep, or bog, half a pint When fed wHbout tbe meal It abould be giv en In the proportion of a tableapoonfnl to a bone, cow or ox, and balf that quantity for each of tbe smaller farm animals. I ad I treat Ion la Cowe. It Is a common expression to speak at a cow aa losing ber cud when nhe atops rnmluatiug. The trouble Is d'lo to Indlgentlon wholly, and may be ear!! remedied, In moat cases, by a proper diet Usually thla trouble oc curs moat frequently In tbe winter, when the cowe ere heavily grain fed, but sometimes occurs with cowa In the summer who are on tbe range, but are receiving some grsln. In such canes a good plan Is to cut out the grain ra tion entirely for a few days, or until the cow again chews ber cud. For a time after she resumes ruminating feed ber largely on tbe grass with aome good hay, and gradually get her on to tbe grain. A day or two after the grain ration bas been cut off the row should have a single dose of one pound of Epsom salts and two ounces of ground ginger root mixed In two quarts of warm water. In tbe winter reduce the grain ration one-half, give ber the medicine named above at the beginning of the treatment and make up the ration with roots or ensilage. At all times cows should have free ac cess to rock salt, for It Is a great diges tive. To Pat Potatoes In Cellar. Ilerji la a a excellent device for use In unloading apples or potatoes from a cart to tbe cellar. Take a piece of No. 12 wire (telephone wire) and run It from a stake In front of the roll way down through the ollway, or potato bin. String two Iron hooks on the wire and hook the loaded basket upon these, when tbe load will slide smooth ly down and across the cellar, where the helper can empty the basket A light cord attached to tbe basket al lows tbe man outside to pull the bas ket baek far another load. This saves a large amount of heavy lifting and saves time also, since two baskets can be kept going. Fig. 1 shows tho hooks on the wire. Fig. 2 shows the device In action. raatnrlog-and Soiling. A comparison was made at the Ne braska Experiment Station of the amount of foed produced and tbe ef fect upon the yield of milk and butter fat when certain crops were pastured and when they were cut aud fed. The crops so tested were alfalfa, sor ghum and Indian corn. In the case of each of these from two to three times s much feed was procured from a given area of land when the crop was cut and fed as wticn It was pastured. Top Dreealng Forage Crops. At the New Jersey Experiment Sta tion tests have been made of nitrate of soda as a top dn-sslug on forago crop3 In connection with the manures and fertilizers gouerally used. In all cases a very marked Incronse due to the ap plication of nitrate occurred, ranging from 84.1 per cent for corn to 1X5.6 per cent for barley n profitable return from the use of tbe nitrate on all crops except the barley, which, owing to unfavorable weather conditions, did not make a large yield. The Brood Sows. Give brood sows the freedom of tbe pasture fields when with young pigs and as soon as the pigs are old enough to eat, feed a little shelled corn and dry middlings with a mash of wheat middlings and milk. Sows with plga should always have access to a good blue grass pasture and should bot be fed too much' corn. The largest part of tbe ration should be made up of oats aud bran with a little oil meal, nave plenty of charcoal and ashes con stantly available. An occasional feed I nq.a TOR 8T0RI5Q POTATOES.

Sta. A., E. Liverpool, O. Mas. M. A. Dsckbu The cause of Rheumatism is a sour, acid condition of the blood, produced by food lying undigested in the stomach, poor bowel action, weak kidneys and general sluggish condition of the system. External applications, such as liniments, oils, plasters, etc., do not reach the cause and can onlv a? tern of all foreign matter. It cures the disease permanently and safely because it contains no harmful minerals to derange the stomach and diges tion. Lork on Rheumatism and any advice you wish,' without charge. TIIZ SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLAXTA. CJU TTbat IVconaea of the Dlblea. I Tbe announcement of Dr. James ! Morrow, secretary of tbe Pennsylvania ; Bible Society, that bis organization alone distributed 10.000,000 Bibles last year, while 5,000,000 were sold by the trade, again calla attention to the Im mense circulation of tbe book. Where all tbe Bible Issued go to is a wonder even among the agencies that are con cerped la the work. Distributions are supposed to cover, as far as possible, places and persons not yet reached, but It would appear that there are no longer any such places and persons left Even supposing there were Bibles In the knapsacks of some or even all of tbe slaughtered thousands on tbe field or burled with tbelr clothes on at Fort Arthur and Mukden, that would be but a drop In tbe ocean of produc tion. Tbe proportion of Bibles to be found on second-band book stalls Is not I greater than of other books, nor are they probably stored away more than other books are. Tenons who have Investigated this question says it Is one of tbe unexplained mysteries. Philadelphia Tress. Deepast Hani Ever Hade. Tbe deepest haul of a net ever made in the world was achieved by Americans off the Tonga Islands -In tbe Sooth Pacific. Tbe trawl struck bottom 23,000 feet below tbe surface; that Is considerably more than four miles down, but even at that depth animal life was found. Those strange beings lived In water whose tempera ture was constantly just above the freezing point and under a pressure of 9,000 pounds to the square Inch. To sink that net and bring It back again took a whole day of stead la bor. St Nicholas. It All Depends "Don't you know," said the busy per son, "that hard work la beneficial?"
