CATARRH
Catarrh 1ms Income such common
disease that a person entirely free from
this disgusting complaint is seldom met
with. It is customary to speak of Catarrh
as nothing more serious than a bad cold,
a simple inflammation of the nose and
throat. It is, in fact, a complicated and
very dangerous disease ; if not at first, it
very soon becomes so.
The blood is quickly contaminated by
the foul secretions, and the poison through
the general circulation is carried to all
parts of the system.
Salves, washes and sprays are unsatis
factory and disappointing, ficcauje they do
not reach the seat of the trouble. S. S. S.
does. It cleanses the blood of the poison
and eliminates from the system all catar
rhal secretions, and thus cures thoroughly
and permanently the worst cases.
Mr. T. A. WIIIUhH, lemlltitt dry-good mer
chant of KpnttnnlHirg, 8. C, writes t ' For years

speckled apron when receiving fas

Required her inveterate habit of knit
ting in her zeal at Valley Forge to re
lieve the barefooted men around her.
On every fair day she might- be seen
walking through the rude street of
the town of huts with a basket in her
hand. Entering the hut of a sergeant,
she found him dying on a pallet of
straw, his wife beside him In the an
guish of final Reparation. She minis
tered to his comfort with food pre
pared by her own hands. Then kneel
ing she earnestly prayed with her
'tweet and solemn voice' for the M rick
en couple. All day long she was busy
w.".h these errands of grace, or in the
kitchen at the stone house, or in urging
other women to lend n helping hand.
And when she passed along the linen
of the troops she would sometimes hear
the fervent ey of '(iod blebs Lady

The cream should nhvnys be strained
Into the churn and tho butter color ndd
ed Immediately, If color Ib to be used.
There should bo no variation In tho
peed of churning, as too fa8t or too
alow a speed will cause a rise in tem
perature, resulting In too soft a butter,
says M. II. Matts In Kansaa Farmer.
Churns must be ventilated a couple of
times after thoy start to let out gases
of fermentation, which aro always pres
ent. Be suro of a proper churning temper
attire, as cream will Honictlmcs pro
duce what Is known ns foaming and
will nearly till the churn. This may bo
caused either by too much speed at
starting, churn too full of cream or
cream being too cold (especially a thin
cream). Tho best remedy Is to divide
the cream Into two churnlugs nud pro
ceed at n proper churning temperature.
In my experience I hnvo found cream
lifter being churned for between four
and live successive hours, then given a
rest of nbout an hour, began to break.
In ten minutes after starting tho soe-1
otid time.
After the first stop tho cream was
not apparently any nearer the breaking
point than when first started. After tho
butter granules have reached tho tlze
of a "pin's head," or from one-sixth to
one-eighth of an Inch In diameter, the
buttermilk Ib drawn off and strained
through a hair strainer; then water at
tho temperature of 45 to 50 degrees F.,
depending on the temperature of the at
moflnhnro. of nbout tho same nunntitvl
as the buttermilk Is added to the-butter
and the churn revolved a few times. I
Usually one washing Ib sulflclent,
though the wash water should drain
comparatively clear. Tho amount of
washing will depend on the size of the
butter granules and tho condition the
cream Is In. Both under and over ripe
cream will require more washing thnn
properly ripened crenm. Tho Impor
tance of using clean nnd pure wash
water cannot be overestimated.
The butter Is now In a condition to
I snlt, nud the amount to use varies
I widely under different conditions. Salt
preserves butter to n certain extent
i nud greutly Improves the taste. If salt
has been used In washing, the finished
butter will not require as much, or, in

less salt ueeuetl. irom one to two
ounces of snlt per pound of butter fat
should be used. Butter only retains
from otie-hnlf to three-fourths of tho
I nsalt, depending upon the condition of
I the snlt, which should be kept line and
hi a clean place, as It absorbs odor.
I The salt does not enter the Individual
butter granules or grains, but is dls-
I solved In the water present, nnd any
excess of It promptly coheres to tho
' surface of the grains and is pressed
' between them. Thus wo see the hn-
I portanco of the kind and right use of

APIARISTS' WINTER WORK.
frhe Time to liny IIlTea, Fnrnltnra
and Other Supplies.
After tho bees aro tucked nway com
fortably In their winter quarters thero
Is little else of outside work to bo dono
only to see that tho entrances of tho
hives aro kept clear of dead bees and
snow or Ice during winter, and F. G.
Herman has suggested In 'New Eng
land Homestead that this Is a good
timo to take time by the forelock and
think nbout the coming spring
Mr. Herman buys all hives and fur
niture In the flat and makes them up
during leisure hours In winter. Of
course every beekeeper hns'n shop or
little nook somewhere to work In. If
one has n furnace In the cellar and
there aro windows enough to let In tho
light, no better place could be desired.
"Another ndvnntage," says Mr. Her
man, "In buying supplies early Is that
dealers give to early purchasers a sealo
of discount beginning with the month
of November and running through tho
winter. The earlier tho purchases arc
made the larger the discount''
The I.ntiKatrnth Hive.
There Is no patent on the Lang
stroth, probably tho most extensively
used of all hives. An exchnngc states
Us dimensions ns follows: A box 04
Inches deep, 13 Inches wide and SO
Inches long, outside measure. Tho
material used Is pine boards planed
down to seven-eighths of nn Inch In
thickness.
The regular Longstroth frame Is
made of tho samo material, and tho
dimensions of frame are 0 Inches
deep and 17 Inches long. The top bar
of frame should be one-half of one Inch
thick and ends and bottom one-fourth
of an Inch In thickness.
Each hive contains eight bfftbovo
frames and each framo occupies lft
Inches In apace. Almoit every one
who commences wltn some other hive
will sooner or Inter make the change,
nd very often at considerable ex-
pensc.
Factory and Home Workmanship.
The hive should not only be nub
Btantlnlly built, but should have ac
curate bee spnees nnd a close fitting
rainproof cover or roof. Factory mnde
hives, ns n rule, best meet these re
quirements, ns both lock Joints nud
hnlf corners can only be made to ad
vantage by machinery, and the expert
hive builder understands, of eotir.se.
the absolute necessity of great accu
racy In bee spaces, as well ns tho great
desirability of good material nud
workmanship.
CORN MACHINERY.
The PniKrcia of the Harvester Com
bined Hnskcr nud Shredder.
It is only within recent years that
any attempt hns been made to furnish
tho fanner with corn harvesting ma
chinery that is nt all comparable with
that Ions: aco invented for harvesting
small grain, says Iowa Homestead.. The
immense waste of stover continued for
years nil over the corn belt, and the
figures representing the waste, if they
could be even conservatively estimated,
would be startling Indeed. There Is ev
ery reason to believe, however, that
better conditions will prevail In tho
future.
The corn harvester appeared In 180.",
nnd. although Its Introduction was
somewhat slow, ns Is the case with nil
now ideas, the machine trade papers re
port that about 35,000 harvesters were
sold during the present year, and the
demand wns so great that it could not
be supplied. It Is estimated that within
a very few years the annual sales of
the corn harvester will amount to, 100,
000. Tho com harvester and shredder
made their appearance nt about the
same time and apparently to stay. The
best shredders on the market now husk
the corn nnd shred the stover In one
operation. From 8,000 to 10,000 of
these machines have been sold this sea
son, which Is nearly ns many ns tho
number of thrashing machines that are
annually sold.
A single shredder, like u thrashing
machine, does duty on many farms, so
that the figures representing the sales
of shredders must bo read with this
fact In view in order to appreciate the
extent to which they are being availed
of. To u much larger extent, therefore,
than over before the corn crop will In
the future be a machine crop, ami tho
terrible wastes connected with It In the
past, which made the economist shud
der, will measurably cease.
Will ton ash un l'encli Tree.
The bpraylng of peach trees with
whitewash tn the winter to prevent
swelling of fruit buds prematurely has
the effect of bringing off the oyster
shell bark louse or scale. The best for
mula Is to use two pounds of fresh
slaked lime to ono gallon of water and
strain. The louse Is not killed by this
spray, but the whitewash simply loos
ens the hold of tho adult scale, and It
falls to the ground. Sprayed trees are
also more healthy in every way. This
Bprny will uot affect San Jose scale.
