V 4 HELPFUL You won't tell your family doctor the whoie story about your private illness you are too modest You Deed not be afraid to tell Mrs. rink bam, at Lynn, Mass., the things you could not explain to the doctor. Your letter Mall Ve held in the strictest con fidence. From her vast correspond ence wiih 6ick women during the past thirty years she may have gained the very knowledge that Mill help your case. Such letters as the fol lowing, from grateful women,- es tablish beyond a doubt the power of lydia e-pinkham's vegetable: compound to conquer all female . diseases. Mrs. Isorman It. Barndt, of Allen town, Pa., writes : " Ever since I was sixteen years o! age I had. suffered from an organic de rangement and female weakness; in consequence I had dreadful headaches and was extremely nervous. My physi cian said I must go through an opera tion to get well. A friend tola me about Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and I took it and wrote you for advioe, following your directions carefully, and thanks to you I am to day a well woman, and I am telling all my friends of my experience." FACTS FOR SICK WOMEN. For thirty years Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound, made from roots and herbs, has been the standard remedy for female ills, and has positively cured thousands of women M ho have been troubled with displacements, inflammation, ulcera tion, fibroid tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, backache, that bear-mg-doMTi feeling, flatulency, indiges tion,dizzinessir".'rvnTis prostration. Gloomy Outlook.

For a delicate corn enke try one tmkod In a short-handled frylngpnn and Dilxcd in a rnther unusunl manner. Tut jne mid two-thirds cups of corn nicnl, jne-thlrd cup of flour, onc-qunrtcr cup jf siignr, one level tonspoon each of salt nnd soda into a sifter and sift, then turn bnck nnd sift a second time.

Have two rouiulinx tnlilcspoons of but ter melted in & frying pan. turn In the hatter nnd ponr one cup of sweet milk over the top, but do nor stir it in. Set In the oven to bake hnlf nu hour. The cake will have n custnrd-like streak all through It. The rerferl linked Apple. When the skinH nre thin nnd of a deep red color I frequently do not pare the apples, but at nil times I am care ful to remove nil the core, esixn-lully every bit of the lining of the seed een, and to bake them in granite or enrtjien, never in tin. as tin gives them an unpleasant flavor nnd n dingy color. Fill the core cavities with sugar, heaped or scant, accofdlnng to the tart ness of the apples; ndd nlso a few grains of salt, nnd sulllelent wnter to cover the apples. Bake In a quick oven and bnste frequently. The Delineator. EKST Sabatltatea. Mnny egg substitutes nre mnde, sonii from skim iullk, some from mixture of animal or vegetable fats, albumen, starch or flour, coloring matter aud a leavening powder, in addition to tho mineral waters similar to those found In the egg. Other egg substitutes nre little more than starch, colored with some yellow substance. Of course, such products can not lie made to replace fresh eggs, in that they do uot contain much nitrogenous matter, or fat. Pro ducts made from them may be very harmful. To Make Touirh Steak Tender. When meat is high priced it is not always possible to buy the most ex pensive cuts. The steak that is not porterhouse can be improved by treat ing It as the French chefs prepare their steaks to make tlieni tender. But three talilr spoons of olive oil and one nnd one-half tablesjsoons of vinegar on a plate and lay the steak in, then set in the icebox for four hours. Turn half a dozen times at intervals, then the meat fs ready to broil. Chop Sue of Ileef. Break into a kettle half a package of spaghetti, cover with salt water nud boll. When almost tender ndd half n can of tomatoes. Put butter in frying pan nud fry in it three large onions,, sliced, till brown. Add two pounds of beef run through the machine. When all is nicely browned ndd the spaghetti and tomatoes, stir, boll for a few min utes nud serve hot. Browned I'otatoea. Select potatoes of rather small size, peel and cut into quarters. Throw Into salted cold water nnd leave them for half an hour. Take them out nnd dry them on n clean towel. Have ready In a deep frying pan or a shallow sauce pan clean hot fat, boiling hot, and dropi tin? potatoes Into this. Fry to n light brown and drain in n colander before serving. Attractive Service of TomntovH. Take a large sized plate, garnish nround edges with lettuce leaves or pai'hloy, place slices of deep red to matoes, peeled, nround edge of plate on the leaves, nnd heap sliced encum bers in center of dish. The effect Is pretty. Grub a in Gema. To one teaspoon soda add three pints of sour milk, two eggs, one teaspoon salt, one tablespoon fryings, one-half pint of wheat flour, nnd enough gra hn in flour to make it thick enough to drop from spoon. Sugar to sweeten if desired. Raked Hum. Wash nnd scrub ham nnd put In a baking pan two cups water. Bake twen ty minutes to the pound. Tnke it up nnd remove the skin. Stick Into the fat cloves and cover with grated bread crumbs. Brown lightly in the oven. Short Suit nenlloiK. Chewing gum will stop gas leakage in the illuminating Jets that often esenpt'a ut the Joints. Old jelly gets Insipid. It can be intuits like new by heating. Add a little water and sugar. t Cutting onions, turnips and carrots across the liber makes them more ten der when cooked. A weak solution of turpentine toured down the water pipes once, a week will drive the water bugs away. Save old paraflin from jellies nnd the like, melt nnd mold in patty pans and It will be useful for smoothing the irons. Hang woolens out on the line drip ping wet, without wringing them at all. If dried In this way they will not shrink. Wash dishes used in preparing foods for a meal while the foods nre cooking nud thus learn to get dishwashing sim plified. Half a lemon dipped In suit Is excel lent for cleaning copper articles. Oxalic ndd. too. Is equally successful both for copper and brass. A few drops of alcohol ruhlied on the Inside of lamp chimneys will remove nil trace of jreasy smoke when water alone is of no avail. Silver that is in dally use may be kept bright by placing It occasionally In hot borax water nnd allowing it to stand an hour or two. IMnse with clear bot water, then wipe with a dean dry towel. Cabbage Worm. When the first appearance of the worm la made the plants should be dusted with the par Is greeu and flour mixture. When the beads are forming use one pound of pyrethum powder to four pounds of flour to drat the plants. This Is harmless to man. After the head begins forming pnrls green Should not be used. Those who nre afraid to use parls green are genetxilly success ful by beginning early to use the py rethum powder nnd spraying often. Cnbbnge and other plnnt lice are beat controlled by spraying wKh kerosene emulsion, using tbe 15 per cent solution a solution containing 15 per cent of kerosene. If the lice nr on trees, flowers or rose bushes, tobacco decoc tion may be used vnstta good results. The tobacco decoction is made by tak ing three pounds of tobneco stems nnd five gallons of water and boiling for two hours. It is used without diluting, but must not he applied too hot, or It may scald the plants. If treatment is begun In time plnnt lice cnu be controlled. It must be done before the leaves are curled bo tbe spray can reach the pests. There should be several sprayings, four or five days apart, as one spraying will not completely do the work. Clean cul ture is important In fighting these In fects, as with many others. Antomatlo Damp Wicon. The ense with which modern dump carts and wagons can Ik unloaded is Illustrated in the automatic dump wag on shown in the accompanying Illustra tion, the Invention of a Connecticut ninn. The wagon box Is pivoted on the axle, the greater portion of the load being in back of the pivoted point The forward end of the box Is normally held in position by a lever directly be hind the driver's seat. When ready to dump the load the driver turns in bis 6eat, releases tbe lever and the load nu tomatlcnlly turns over. The driver is thus not compelled to leave his seat, saving considerable time. Treatment for Loco. The results of the loco weed when eaten by stock are unpleasantly fa' miliar to the stockman of the plains east of the Rocky mountains. It has been estimated that the losses from this source in Colorado alone have reached the sum of a million dollars per nnnui. The national bureau of plant industry has been taking a turn nt t!e loco problem, and C. D. Marsh, expert In poison plants, reports thnt It has been found that locoed cattle can in most cases be cured by a course of treatment with strychnine, while locoed horses can generally be cured by a course of treatment with Fow ler's solution. The lyilinols under treatment must not be allowed to eat the loco weed and should be given not only nutritious food, but so far as pos 8lble, food with laxative properties, To this end magnesium sulphate was administered to correct the ooustipn tion which is almost universal among locoed animals. It iihould be noted, too, that magnesium sulphate may serve to some extent as an antidote to the poison. It may be added in regard to the question of Immunity that loco poison ing comes ou In a slow and cumulative manner, so that there Is no possibility of animals becoming immune. Wanted Hoad Money. In a recent siteech nt Peoria, II. II Gross, secretary of the Fanners' Good Itoad League and special agent for the National Department of Agriculture to study the question of highways, mode the following statement: "In forty years enough money has been thrown away and squandered on the dirt roads of Illinois to pay for graveling or mac adaniling every foot of highway in the State." He went on further to state that ns good, hard roads could be built on the black laud In the corn belt of Illinois us In Massachusetts, or In any other State, and at a moderate annual expense to the landowners of the State, Hssllly not exceeding their present annual tax for road nnd bridge purposes. The rnc-luur Iforae. We have known of many animals that have ncqulred the habit of pacing lieeauKu cf becoming sore forward. Tbe fore feet ami legs do not assist in the eil'orts f propulsion, their ollice is slnqily to bold up or eupiiort the fore and heaviest part of the animal, and as It must keep these fore feet out of the way of the hind ones, u horse will fkdearor to do so in the most awk ward of ways nt times, for when wire forward It takes to any sort of a gait that to its mind appears to lessen the pain of action. It quite frequently adopts the single font actluu, gradually proziestli g Into that of pacing. It j OPEHATISO THE DUMP WAQON. was this soreness forwnrd nnd be was actually lame that caused the groat Jay Eye See to pnoe. Field and Farm. South port Glob Onion Connecticut's famous v.AJtlirt tftotn- onions stand unsurpassed among jmptt- lar American Tarletles of the onion. They are In high fa vor in some of the finest commercial on ion growing districts of Ohio and New York nud during a few years past have niadc a steady ml advance In standing everywhere as n highly bred, perfect WHITE GLOBE onion. Eastern onion growers use the red and white Southport Globes to produce the exceptionally large, solid, beautifully formed bulbs that bring top prices in the New York City markets. Besides the two varieties named. there is a yellow Southport (Jlobe that resembles the others In shope and gen eral character, but is of a rich yellow color. The white Is one of those beautifully white, perfectly globe shaped onions that tnke the eye and bring highest price In any market Its skin is thin nnd pnperllke, the flesh Cue grained. crisp and mild flavored. Add t3 this that It Is a tremendous cropKr, nnd It represents almost an Ideal product in Its line. Dlalc Flows. The twenty-four-lneh size disk pkw enn safely be recommended as being su perior to any other size. The smaller size pulls easier, but it does not pul verize the soil so well. The disk plow- is cnpnble of handling ground thnt bus become too dry nnd hnrd for tlie mold board plow, it is of somewhat lighter draft, does not require sharpening so often, cuts through trash better and does not clog so easily. Do not try to cut a furrow wider than eight or ten Inches with a disk. The wider the fur row the deeper will corrugations be and tlie poorer will be the work. It Is bettor to use two twenty-four-lnch plows, each cutting eight Inches in wldfh, than to use a single twenty- eight or thirty-Inch plow cutting six teen inches. Itnta-Itairaa. Prof. Bane of the New Hampshire Experiment Station recommends the American purple-top ruta-bnga for the reason that It is a flue market sort, often selling in the markets for double the price of the early wHlte ttrnilp. It Is also a splendid ltfH?por, and is usu ikty? free from rponginess. While it cite not ba uUrfltcd as late as the early turnips, it can be used as a follow crop after early peas, provided the seed is sown not later than July 10. Milk for Calrea. The calf finds iu fresh milk while it Is still warm with the animal heat of the cow, it is said, a constituent vnluc not found in the milk after It is allow ed to get cold. The chemist can not define It, nnd it can not be restored again by warming the milk. If every cnlf could be fed Its milk swift, nnd while it still retained ltx animal heat, there would no doubt be fewer cnt-hum med steers going to the block. Wants a New Wheat. Prof. Herbert F. Boberts of the Kan sas State Agricultural College nnd Ex periment Station will visit Europe dur ing the summer. He Is commissioned from the Kansas Exiwrlmcnt Station to Inspect the wheat regions of Central and Southern Europe In search of su perior sorts of hard wheats for intro duction into Kansas. SmoothlnK Draff. To break down clods nud give a flni surface the field drag serves a useful purpose.. It may be used iu connection with the spring tooth harrow or even with tlie disk. The 0x0 inch pieces ure C to 10 feet in length nnd nre laid edgewise, being bound together by cross pieces made of IVjxO Inch stuff. Farm Jiewa Xotea, In New Zealand the best demand is for Shorthorn bulls of the milking strain. Kangaroo rats are destroying the vineyards near Santa Crux, Cal. They have appeared in thousands nnd nre feeding on the young buds and vines. While attending n mule on n farm In Morgan County, W. Ya., Frank Culp, a farm boy, was attacked by the ani mal aud had his leg nearly chewed off. Secretary Wilson says we ought to have bumper crops throughout the country this season. All conditions un favorable for u-cord breaking yields of all sorts. Texas raises one-fifth of nil the cattle In the United States, but they are not nil finished in that State. A few days ngo 10,000 Panhandle steers sold for $i!.'0.000. While one class of stock may pay Itet ter than another, do not lose sight of the fact that the average farm needs a few bead of every sort in order to make the best and closest use of all the products. A Connecticut farmer Is reported to use the Incubator system In starting hut potato crop. The seed potatoes art placed in a warm room in n rack, where they sprout, and are then transplanted In the field. A story comes from Washington, Pa., that a farmer has a sheep-killing horse. 'I'li? animal was seen to rush Into the flock, trample u sheep to death, pick it up in its teeth aud carry It out. The performance whs repeuted until thi farmer Interfered. TrnaaarasTftowaa. Trousseau gowns nre lovelier than ever," says the fnshlon editor of the Woman's Home Cominnlou, "but as they hnvo increased In beauty, they have lessened In number. Very few brides of to-dny. no matter how fash ionable they tuny lie, order a trousseau consisting of a preat number of cos tumes. The reason for this Is that fash ions change so that It Is necessary every little while to have a new-style gown If one Is to keep pace with tbe capri cious mode. . "Tlie bridal princess gown Is a style which will be Iu fashion for a long time to come. One can wear It as long as the material lasts by merely changing the sleeves to uieet the requirements of tn prevailing fashion." A KENTUCKY CASK That Win Intereat AU afterlnc Women.
