a week clear out tbe vault and wash it
thoroughly to prevent its getting

The construction of a simple and econ

Hoard's Dairyman. A suitable size for
this silo is alxiut 16 feet in diameter aiul

j Each hoop is in two pieces, and these
pieces are joined in the rear just the

as may be necessary. Iron blocks or

AIDED BY MRS. PINKHAM.
Mrs. W E P axton . Youngtown.
North Dakota, writes about her strug
gle to regain health after the birth of
her little girl:
” D ear M rs . P tnkham :—It Is with
pleasure that I add my testimony to
your list, hoping that it may induce
others to avail themselves of your val
uable medicine.
” After the birth of my little girl,
three years ago. my health was very
poor I had leucorrhcea badly, and a
terrible bearing-down pain which
gradually grew worse, until 1 could do
to work Also had headache nearly
all the time, and dizzy feelings Men
struations were very profuse, appeas
ing every two weeks
’• I took medicine from a good doctor,
but it seemed to do no good. I was
becoming alarmed over my condition,
when I read your advertisement in a
paper. I sent at once for a bottle of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound. and after taking two-thirds of
the bottle I felt so much better that I
send for two more. After using three
bottles I felt as strong and well as any
one.
■’I think it is the best medicine for
female weakness ever advertised, and
recommend it to every lady I meet suf
fering from this trouble ”
Maternity is a wonderful experience
and many women approach it wholly
unprepared. Childbirth under right
conditions need not terrify women.
The advice of Mrs. Pinkham is freely
offered to all expectant mothers, and
her advice is beyond question the most
valuable to be obtained. If Mrs. Pax

To many persons tbe fruit of the
raspberry in the fall Is a luxury, com
ing as it does when no other fruit of
this nature is to be had. There are but
two sorts that have proved of any val
ue of about a half-dozen kinds tried—
tbe Catawissa and tbe Belle de Fon-
tenay. To have these f ¡ill-bearing sorts
produce well they must be cut down in
the spring, so that vigorous young
canes will grow, as from these the crop
of fruit is to come. Tbe stronger the
canes, tbe better the crop of fruit,
hence the importance of applying plen
ty of manure to the ground, and of
keeping up a cultivation of the soil
while the plants are growing. It is not
impossible to have fruit on ordinary
raspberries when treated as these are,
though there is something In the na
ture of the two kinds mentioned which
seems to fit them especially for fall
bearing—Fruit.

First cut down the woods with a
lawn mower or a scythe. Rake tbe
weeds off and chop out all of the old
plants, leaving runners about a foot
apart in the rows, and hoe between the
plants, as well as cultivate well be
tween the rows. The object should be
to have the ground deep, soft and per
fectly clean of grass and weeds. The
runners (which should be those sent

Newly Cleared Land.
If any oue wants to know what difll
cutties the early settlers in wooded sec
tions had to encounter, let him make a
clearing iu some wood lot and then try
to grow a crop among the stumps. He
will break more plow points and har
rows working this land than the crop
will be worth when grown. *Btit the
early settlers had at least one advant
age, and that was that their newly
cleared land was free from weeds. In
all the older settleu parts of the coun
try there are many bad weeds among
the trees in the woods, the seeds of
which have been carried there by birds
or other animals.

The animal here shown is a typical
Hereford, from a picture printed in the

' old-established one. it being mor-.; than
a century since its founding in Hereford.
England. Early in the present century
it was recognized as a valuable beef
breed. Records of sales *-om 171*1* to
1811 show that twenty oxen brought
for beef an average of £100 6s.. or about
$530 each. The Hereford» and Short
horns were active rivals during those
early days, and the competition be
tween them is still very close.
In color, the Hereford Is a red of
varying shade, generally light, with
clear white face, white line of greater
or less length along the back, white
brisket, white brush and white feet
The horns are medium to long, white,
