What suffering frequently result* from a mother’s ignorance; or more frequently from a mother's neglect to properly instruct her daughter I Tradition says "woman mustsuffer," »nd young women are so taught. There is a little truth and a great deal of exaggeration in this. If a young woman suffers severely she needs treatment and her mother should see that she gets it. Many mothers hesitate to take their daughters to a physician for examina­ tion; but no mother need hesitate to write freely about her daughter or herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure the most efficient advice without charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is Lynn, Mass. The following letterfrom Miss M ari » F. J ohnson , Centralia, Pa .shows what neglect will do, and tells how Mrs. Pinkham helped her: •‘My health became so poor that I had to leave school. I was tired all the time, and had dreadful pains in my side and back. I was also troubled with irregularity of menses. I was very weak, and lost so much flesh that my friends became alarmed. My mother, who Is a firm believer in your remedies from experience, thought per­ haps they might benefit me, and wrote you for advice. I followed the advice you gave, and used Lydia E Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills as you directed, and am now as well as I ever was I have gained flesh and have • good color I am completely cured of irregularity." This year I have been more success­ ful than ever before in keeping the striped bugs off my melon vines. My weapon of defense was the sprinkling of finely sifted coal ashes scented with carbolic acid over the plants from time to time. With me It proved a very ef­ fectual remedy.—Practical Farmer. Wenning tlie Colt. A spring colt ought to be weaned be­ fore the pastures have been destroyed by frost. At the same time it should be used to taking a little grain twice a day while it is still running at pasture. The oat is, of course, the best grain tor colts, as ft is also for the horse. It does not take much oats or meal to keep a young colt thriftily growing during its first winter. If oats and corn are ground together, without the cob. and some wheat bran Is added. It will. In most cases, make a better ration fed with cut hay than could be got from feeding oats alone. No corn and cob meal should lie fed to young colts, or, in fact, to any young animal. The cob is extremely hard to digest, and at least for all young stock has not enough nu­ trition to compensate for the danger from using it. Novel Self-Closing Gate.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to Jfearn that there Is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its Stages, and that iscatarrh. Hall’s Catarrh Cure Is the only positive cure known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a conatltutlonal dis­ ease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken Internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the founda­ tion of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work.

Over 160 bushels of corn were raised on an acre in Nel­ son County, ft’a., by a former member of Congress by selection of seed. Some stalks contained from five to seven ears,, and grew to a height of fourteen feet. This may appear remarkable, and may not be repeated, but It shows that in order to secure the largest yields the seed corn must be selected every year until the variety is made better. Experiments at the Indiana station to determine the comparative value of pure corn meal and a ration consisting of equal parts of corn meal and shorts showed that there was practically no difference in the two foods when used for fattening pork. The corn meal used eost 65 cents per 100 pounds and the shorts 70 cents.

A representative of a Maine creamery has been testing the skim milk of its patrons, and taking the temperature of the tank in which the deep cans were placed for cooling and raising the cream. Very much to his surprise, he found that many of them keep their milk too cool. He found the skim tullk most free from butter fat when the temperature was nearest to 45 degrees. At 36 degrees there was from one to two-tenths of 1 per cent, more of butter fat in the skim milk than when it was kept at 45 degrees, or near that point.

A great many fences are of no use as barriers, because they surround lots that are never pastured. It was on one such that years ago we saw a farmer trying to train a grape vine and make a trellis of it. Of course all the work ot cultivating the vine which was planted in the corner of an old worm fence had to be done by hand with spade and hoe. But the experiment succeeded until the fence rotted under the mass of vines which covered It. Then the farmer was obliged to build a trellis for his vine, which he might bet­ ter have done at first.—Exchange. An Invention has recently been pat­ ented by Dr. Peyton B.

Turnips Growing After Front. top bar of the gate, a roller is Journaled which is engaged by an inclined rod fulcrumed at its lower end on a fixed support set at a proper distance from the hinge-post. A weight Is held on the rod and can be fastened In any desired position by means of a set screw. To prevent the rod from leaving the roller when opening and closing the gate, the bracket in which the roller is Journaled is provided with a loop. When the gate is swung open the free end of the rod travels over the friction roller and assumes nearly a vertical position. As soon as the gate is releas­ ed. the weight of the rod pressing against the roller closes the gate. By changing the position of the weight, the gate can be closed with more or less force. fl Beautiful _ _ Girl _ _ ’s Affliction.
