RBBI1I By feeding poultry and stock with cooked food during the winter months, at least one third of the food is saved; also having stock in a healthy condition, preventing hog cholera among your hogs, and insuring the Lens laying freely during the winter months, when eggs arc always wanted at high prices. This Cooker will pay for itself in one week's time and is without doubt the best and cheapest on the market just what its name implies, n Farmer's Ilnndv Feed Cooker.

Pcarse, of Agricola, Alberta, Canada, passed through Chicago rccentlyen route to England. lie paints in glowing colors the advantages of Western Canada, and says that a large number of tenant farm ers from the old country are making their homes there, and those who, during the past few years, have gone to that district from the United States are doing rcmnrlt obly well. They find the climate delightful, and, although in very poor circumstances when they arrived, they are mostly doing well and have excellent farms, some of them being able to loan money to the new set tlers. i As an example of what has been done by colonists this year, he says Hugh Irvine, who has been in the country five years, threshed 3,200 bushels of wheat and received 72 cents per bushel for it. James Fitzgerald raised 3,000 bushels in the fourth year of hid settlement, while James Atkinson had a crop of 3,500 bushels. These men started without any capital, and were induced to go through the representations of the Canadi an Government Agents. The development of the Edmonton-Klondike route has cre ated a home cash market. Hundreds of square miles of magnificent farming country yet remain for cultivation in the Saskatche wan Valley and is sold at low prices. Ilnil Looked Them Over.

AN OLD CATERER ON TERRAPIN, When It In Ilcnriy the Divine Sntlnfnc-. tlon Ih In "Bntlnir It All Yotirnvlf." James Prosser, a famous colored ca terer of this city, dead long ago, fur nished the following formula for pre paring and serving terrapin. It was published In a gastrouomical journal at the time when he was on earth: "You can't enjoy terrapin unless tho day Is nlppin'. Temperature and terra pin go hand In hand. Now, as to your terrapin. Bless you! there is all tho difference in the world in them. The more northerly Is the terrapin found the better. You cat a Florida terrapin you needn't despise it, for terrapin Is terrapin everywhere but you get a Chesapeake one or n Delaware bny one, or, better still, a Long Island one, and there is just the difference between ten dollars a dozen and thirty-six. Warm water kinder washes the delicate flavor out of them. Don't you let Mr. Bergh know It, but your terrapin must be boiled alive. Have a good big pot. with a hot fire under It, so that he shan't languish, and when It has got on a full head of steam pop him In. What I am going to give is a recipe for a single one. If you are awfully rich and go in for a gross of terrapin, just use your multiplication table. Just as soon as he caves in watch him and try his flip pers. When they part when you pry them with your finger nail he is good. Open him nicely with a knife. B'illng of him dislocates the snuft box. Pick out every scrap of his meat. There ain't overmuch of it, more's the pity. The most Is in the j'ints of the legs and side lockers, but if you want to commit murder just you smash his gall, and then your terrapin is gone forever. Watch closely for eggs and handle them gingerly. Now, having got him or her all into shape, put the meat aside. Take three fresh eggs you must have them fresh. Bile 'em hard and mash 'em smooth. Add to that a tablespoon ful of sifted flour, three tablespoonfuls of cream, salt and pepper (red pepper to a terrapin is just depravity) and two wineglasses of sherry wine wine as costs $2.50 a bottle ain't a bit too good. There never was a gotega In all Portu gal that wouldn't think himself hon ored to have itself mixed up with a ter rapin. Now you want quite a quarter of a pound of the very best fresh but ter, and put that in a porcelain-covered, pan and melt it first mustn't bo browned. When it's come to be oily put in your terrapin, yolks of egg, wine and all. Let it simmer gently. B'iling up two or three times does the business. What you ore after is to make it blend. There ain't nothin' that must be too pointed in terrapin stew. It wants to be a quiet thing, just pervaded with ti most beautiful and natural terrapin aroma. You must serve it to the peo ple that eats it on a hot plate, but the real thing is to have it on a chafing dish, and, though a man oughtenter be selfish, there is n kind of divine satis faction in eating it all yourself." Phil adelphia Times. Sleep n m nn Aid to DlgrcNtlon. There is n time-honored notion that a nap after meals promotes digestion, and, filled with this belief, a large num ber of persons habitually toke a nap after dinner, and think they nre doing precisely the best thing for their health. Thereareothergood authorities, too, who claim that sleep during di gestion clouds the mind and predis poses those who indulge in it to apo plexy and stupidity. A French scientist has made this subject a study, and by exhaustive experiments has discovered that sleep does not aid digestion, but rest and a horizontal position nre of greut advantage in promoting the prop er conditions for perfect digestion and assimilation of food.

SKILL OF DOCTORS TESTED. Fifteen Years of Suffering. I thought I should surely die." When the stomach begins to fail In its duties, other organs speedily become nlfcctcd in sympathy, nud life is simply a burden almost unbearable. Indigestion and dyspepsia are so common Unit only the sufferer from these diseases knows the possibilities of misery that inhere iu them. Atypical example of the sufferings of the victim of indiKestion 1a furnished in the case of John C. 1'ritchard. He went on for fifteen years, from bad to worse. In spite of doctors he grew constantly weaker, and thought he would die. He got well, however, and thus relates his experience: " For fifteen years I was a great sufferer from indigestion in its worst forms. I tested the skill of many doctors, but grew worse and worse, until I became so weak I could not walk fifty yards without having to sit down and rest. My stomach, liver, and heart became affected, nnd I thought I would surely die. I tried Dr. T. C. Aycr's Pills and they helped mc right away. I continued their use and am now entirely well. I don't know of anything that will so quickly relieve and cure the terrible sufferings of dyspepsia as Dr. Aycr's ruis." John t:. I'uiTciiAui), uroutc, war ren Co., N. C.
