It was not until the latter part of the seventeenth century that they began to elongate toward the egg-shaped spoon of the present time. Up to the seventeenth century all spoons were large and closely re sembled the soup spoon which has been in use for the last five or six years, the bowl being very deep. Cure for Bad Temper. The best way to cure bad temper is first to convince yourself that you are not reailv being wronged. Once you have gotten in tune with the world and feel quite certain that the universe is better ordered than you could order it, you will cease expect ing to reform the rest of your fellow men and 'thus be saved lots of dis appointment. Conquer Disagreeables. If there is a requirement to suc cess in your business for which you have an antipathy, conquer it, or it will be the rock on which your ship will founder. Overcome the idea that certain things are disagreeable, in or der that your life may contain no dis agreeable duties. Bend before the wind, that you be not broken.

How to grow Missouri corn was the subject of a day’s discussion at the Farmers’ convention in Columbia, Mo., recently. H. J. Waters, dean ot the Agricultural College, opened the dis cussion. Keep plant food on the farm, he urged. Move mangers, stop the prodigious wa.'te, adopt systematic rotation. An elastic rotation is best, but systematic, rut-like rotation is bet ter than the present Missouri plan of no rotation. At least one year in four use clover, and as little timothy as possible. Barnyard manure is the best fertilizer. Commercial fertilizers can only be used with profit in Mis souri upon thin or wornout land, not upon black prairie land. The fertiliz ers should have liberal quantity of potash and cheap phosphorus. Little difference has been shown by experi ments between spring and fall plow ing Much unnecessary work is done in husking corn. The thickness of planting should vary with the richness of land. Suckers depend on various conditions. Experiments have shown for every 100 plants, 4 stalks in a hill, S suckers; 3 in a hill, 25 suckers; 2 in a hill, 76 suckers, and 1 in a hill, 195 suckers. Some varieties of corn have more suckers than others. Dent com has the least. Tillage is for two purposes: First, to keep down weeds; second, to conserve moisture. If land is properly prepared there is no need to stit the soil for root-growth. Shal low tillage does not kill the weeds. Dr. Waters’ address brought out con siderable discussion. Mr. Lauglilin thought the man a criminal who de stroyed plant food on his farm. Jo seph E. 'Wing of Ohio said the manure spreader was a more useful vehicle on the farm than the carriage. “If no blackbirds follow along the furrow I know something’s wrong. If my boy can not get enough fishing worms in a half day to go fishing I know more humus is needed in the land." George H. Sly of Rockport had for his subject “How Can the Farmer Se cure Good Seed?” Mr. Sly emphasized the importance of good seed as a fac tor for increasing the corn yield. There are two wavs, he said, of secur ing good seed. One is by maintaining a seed plot and the other is by select ing eight or ten ears of corn, to be planted in a square field, preferably on the east or southeast side. If you haven’t good seed, said Mr. Sly, go to your neighbor and get some. Let new varieties alone. “The problem will be solved,” he concluded, “by the estab lishment of corn breeding farms throughout the state.” Experience in Threshing. My experience in threshing has not been varied. It has been the same thing over and over again and that has been very expensive to the farmers in this part of the state, in as much as the machines do not save the grain. I have lived in this ring seven years. We have had five different machines in that time and there has been no choice. We have employed two-men machines and they did no better work than the old hand feed which we used two years. The machines thresh the grain all right, but do not separate it from the straw, and enough oats go into the straw stack to doubly pay the threshing bill. Such work does not pay very well. Some of the farmers say the oats are in the stack, they are light, and so forth, but I would rather have them all taken out of the straw. Then I can do as I choose with them. I wouid prefer feeding them rather than have them wasted in the straw and rot in the chaff, which they gen erally do. All the inventors in the country are wracking their brains to get a three kerne! drop to a planter. There are but very few threshing machines ex hibited at fairs, and where there are they attract very little attention, for the fact that they fail to present the vital point to the farmers, that of saving or separating the grain from the straw. Perhaps there are ma chines that will do that. Then that same machine will blow lots of the oats into the stack. Any old cylinder and concave will do the shelling all right, but it is the taking care of the oats and getting them out of the separ ator before the fan blows them into the stack to be wasted. I would like to hear from others on this subject.— J. C. Mahoney, Kane Co., III. A Good-Sized Manure Spreader. After five years’ experience with a manure spreader I think this machine one of the most profitable machines on the farm. Within a radius of five miles of me there are ten or twelve machines and they are increasing In number here every year. One man with a spreader can haul out more manure and spread it better than two men with a wagon can after following the old style of spreading manure. The manure that works best is, of course, rotted manure, but it is a good plan to mix tiie different kinds of manure, as it spreads more easily and better both for the team and man. A considerable amount of litter in ma nure does not increase the difficulty of handling it unless the manure has been heated up or burned up largely. I Then unless it is well shaken it will come off in flakes once in a while, but will not make much trouble if properly handled. The weight of my machine is about 1.700 pounds. 1 use two horses and would not think of getting a smaller macnine, nor would I recommend any man to get a small one. A. R. Williams. Washington County, N. Y. Fecundity of Sw:n». The fecundity of swine is one of the principal factors that makes them valuable as meat producing animals. The fact that a healthy sow will produce from six to twelve pigs at one farrowing makes her one of the chief money-makers of the farm. The other fact that she will bear two litters a year if allowed to do so makes her still more valua ble. from the standpoint of possibili ties. tHUlR The Windflower or Anemone. It will be only a short time before little "Annie Mony,” as one wee chap called it, will be showing her sweet spring face in sunny wild spots. Do you know her when you see her? She is very likely to be the first flower you pick this year for it is her winsome face which usually helps the birds to tell you that spring has come. Is there a prettier flower in the whole wide world than the first Mayflower? This is probably the name which many of the children give to the anemone; per haps others call it the windflower, and perhaps still others have seen it spell ed anemony instead of anemone. They are all of them right. The word anemone is a Greek word meaning wind, so we have formed the habit of calling it windflower. This is really the family name for the flower, just as your family name may be Smith or Jones. The anemone family is a big one, for in it there are eighty-five members each with a name of their own to distinguish them from the rest of the family. Some of the members of this faily are very tiny and modest indeed looking quite unlike their larg er and sometimes more handsome brothers and sisters But as a family they are very modest and shy and do not flaunt gay colors. If you find them it is because they are so very sweet that you will make a search for them. Every one of the eighty-five are hardy perennials. That is they grow easily and live on from year to year without replanting. Having One’s Own Garden. One of the best plays in the world Is to have a small piece of ground for your very own to use as a gar den. It Is very much like reading a fairy story to watch Mother Nature at work, changing little brown and black seeds, some of them no bigger than a pin's head, into beautiful bright green plants. Only it is ever and ever so much better than any fairy story, be cause it is really true. The best way to plan your garden is to divide it into several plots and plant whatever you wish in each plot If you are not sure just how to go to work, mother or father who have be come quite familiar with Nature’s ways, will help you just a little until you understand how. Then after the seeds are planted keep your bright eves open and see how many of Na ture's secret you can discover all for yourself. She has hosts and hosts of them and some are very hard to find out. But you may discover many things which will help you to do bet ter gardening next year. Luther Bur bank is spending his life in studying Nature’s secrets and in turning them to good use. Dwarf Apple Trees. Dwarf apple trees have never been very popular in this country, though they have been now and then boomed by the men putting them on the mar ket. The reasons why they have not been more popular are chiefly that they are not long lived and fre quently are not great bearers. There is a place however for the dwarf ap ple tree and that is principally on the farm where the standard varieties have but just been set out and will not come into bearing for many years. A few dwarf trees should give good satisfaction, as they should come into bearing some years before oute.s. Spraying Pays. If there is one thing that has b°en demonstrated on the iarm devo.ed to the growing of tree fruits it is that it pays to spray the trees. There are some fruit growers who still regard this as an inno vation. hut it has been practiced so long that its value has been scientifi cally demonstrated. Take Off the Mulch. The mulch that has been covering the strawberry plants throughout the winter should be removed as early in the spring as it is safe to do eo. If it remains on too long the vines are very likely to be Injured. Strawberry plants begin to grow very early In the spring. Birches aa Ornamentals. Birch trees make good ornamentals for use in the lawn in front of the farm-house. The weeping varieties of birches are especially beautiful. After they have begun to grow they should be trimmed up to the shape desired. Some of them a»e permitted to branch too low. Horticultural Notes. The soil water that can be used by plants is only in the form of a film. Bny only varieties of trees you know something about. Mulching of land should be more generally practiced. Close attention to weeds will keep the plants growing. Where Weeds Are Bad. How to keep down weeds anywhere is a problem hard to solve. In our corn fields this question is a live one. My advice to farmers is to plow the ground thoroughly the first time. The morning glory proves to be a nad weed in this locality, especially on some farms. Stamp weeds or Butterprints, as they are sometimes called, are about the worst weeds we have In this locality. We find that the state law on weeds is a dead letter. Perhaps if the law was enforced it would be all right.—O. C. Hartzell, Mason County, 111. Clean Cattle. Some men keep their cows and horses clean, but neglect to do anything to help the cattle keep clean. Perhaps we have not the same reason for keeping beef cattle clean that we have for keeping dairy cows and horses clean, bat certainly there is enough to be said in favor of keep ing any kind of stock clean. Looks count for something, and any man that has pride in his farm and his live stock wiil keep them clean even if he can not see the money side of the ques tion. Riveting by Machine.

Druggists of the better class manufacture many excellent remedies, but fl always under original or officinal names and they never sell false brands, or imitation medicines. I They are the men to deal with when in need of anything in their line, which usually includes I all standard remedies and corresponding adjuncts of a first-class pharmacy and the finest and I best of toilet articles and preparations and many useful accessories and remedial appliances. I The earning of a fair living, with the satisfaction which arises from a knowledge of the benefits \ conferred upon their patrons and assistance to the medical profession, is usually their greatest is reward for long years of study and many hours of daily toil. They all know that Syrup of f Figs is an excellent laxative remedy and that it gives universal satisfaction, and therefore they I are selling many millions of bottles annually to the well informed purchasers of the choicest A remedies, and they always take pleasure in handing out the genuine article bearing the full fll Jfl name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of every package. W They know that in cases of colds and headaches attended by biliousness and constipation and % of weakness or torpidity of the liver and bowels, arising from irregular habits, indigestion, or A over-eating, that there is no other remedy so pleasant, prompt and beneficial in its effects as I SyrUp of Figs, and they are glad to Bell it because it gives universal satisfaction. \ Owing to the excellence of Syrup of Figs, the universal satisfaction which it gives and the I immense demand for it, imitations have been made, tried and condemned, but there are B individual druggists to be found, here and there, who do not maintain the dignity and principles fl of the profession and whose greed gets the better of their judgment, and who do not hesitate G to recommend and try to sell the imitations in order to make a larger profit. Such preparations A sometimes have the name—“ Syrup of Figs”—or “Fig Syrup” and of some piratical concern, 1 or fictitious fig syrup company, printed on the package, but they never have the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of the package. The imitations I should be rejected because they are injurious to the system. In order to sell the imitations I they find it necessary to resort to misrepresentation or deception, and whenever a dealer passes a off on a customer a preparation under the name of “Syrup of Figs” or “Fig Syrup,” which ■ m does not bear the full name of the California Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front of the package, ■ ■ he is attempting to deceive and mislead the patron who has been so unfortunate as to enter his A V establishment, whether it be lame or small, for if the dealer resorts to misrepresentation and | B and deception in one case he will do so with other medicinal agents, and in the filling of 1 physicians’ prescriptions, and should be avoided by every one who values health and happiness. j g Knowing that the great majority of druggists are reliable, we supply the immense demand I 1 for our excellent remedy entirely through the druggists, of whom it may be purchased every- f A where, in original packages only, at the regular price of fiftv cents per bottle, but as exceptions I A exist it is necessary to inform the public of the facts, in order that all may decline or return m fl any imitation which may be sold to them. If it does not bear the full name of the Company— M ■ California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of every package, do not hesitate to return the M fl article and to demand the return of vour money, and in future go to one of the better class of fl fl_ druggists who willsell you what you wish and the best of everything in his line at reasonable prices. Women in Our Hospitals Appalling Increases In the Number of Operations Performed Each Year—How Women May Avoid Them. Going through the hospitals in our large cities one is surprised to find such a large proportion of the patients lying on those snow-white beds women and girls, who are either awaiting or recovering from serions operations. Why should this be the case ? Sim ply because they have neglected them selves. Female troubles are certainly on the increase among the women of this country—they creep upon them unawares, but every one of those patients in the hospital beds had plenty of warning in that bearir.g-down feel ing, pain at leftor right of the abdomen, nervous exhaustion, pain in the small of the back, dizziness, flatulency, dis placements of the organs or irregular ities. All of these symptoms are indi cations of an unhealthy condition of the female organs, and if not heeded the penalty has to be paid by a danger ous operation. When these symptoms manifest themselves, do not drag along until you are obliged to go to the hos pital and submit to an operation— but remember that Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound has saved thousands of women from surgical operations. When women are troubled with ir regular.. suppressed or painful periods, weakness, displacement or ulceration of the organs, that bearing-down feel ing, inflammation, backache, bloating (or flatulency), general debility, indi gestion. and nervous prostration, or are beset with such symptoms as dizziness, lassitude, excitability, irritability, ner vousuess, sleepiessness, melancholy, ‘all-gone" and “ want-to-be-left alone ’’ feelings they should remember there is one tried and true remedy. Lydia E Ptnkham's Vegetable Ccmi The following letters cannot fall to bring hope to despairing women. Miss Enby Mnshrnsh, of East Chicago, Ind„ writes: Dear Mrs. Finlvham:— “ I have been a great sufferer with Irregular periods and female trouble, and about three months ago the doctor, after using the X-Ray on me, said I had an ubcess and would have to have an operation. Mv mother wanted me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound as a last resort, and it not only saved me frcm an operation but mode me en tirely well.’’ Mrs. Alice Berry hill, of 313 Boyce Street, Chattanooga, Tenn., writes: Dear Mru Pinkham:— “ Three year* ago life looked dark to ma I had ulceration and inflammation of the female organs and was in a serious condition. “ My health was completely broken down and the doctor told me that If I was not op erated upon X woufd die within six months. I told him I w ould have no operation but would try Lvdia E. Finkhams Vegetable Compound, lie tried to inCuence me agmust it but I sent for the medicine that same day and began to use it faithfully. Within five days I felt rt lief but was not entirely cured until I used it for some time. “Your medicine is certainly fine. I have induced several friends and neighliors to take it and I know more than a uozen who had female troubles and who to-day are as well and strong as I am from Using your Vege table Compound.” Lydia E.
