Mrs. D. Arnold , President German Woman's Club , Grand Pacific Hotel , Los Angeles , CaL , Relieved of a Tumor by' Lyclia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. " DEAR MRS. PINKHAM : I suffered four years ago with a tumor in my womb , and the doctors declared I must go to the hospital and un dergo an operation , which I dreaded very much and hesitated to submit. " My husband consulted an old friend who had studied medicine , If although he was not a practising physician ; and he said he believed that ! Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound would cure me. That same day I took my first dose , and I kept it up faithfully until twelve bottles had been used , and not only did the tumor dis : appear , but my general health was very much improved and I had not felt so well since I was a young woman. " As I have suffered no relapse since , and as I took no other med icine , I am sure that your Compound restored my health and I believe saved my life. " MRS. D.

"I was almost unable to straighten my bnck and the pain was unbearable. "I did not know what it was. but see ing an advertisement of Uodd's Kidni y Pills. I concluded to try a box.

For farmers who preserve and ox- port fruit , as well as for growers , but ter merchants , sea captains anil many' t > thers. a new barrel has much interest , j In order to ascertain the condition of i fruit or provisions which are stored in j an ordinary barrel a man must cither empty the barrel or , at any rate , re move the greater portion of its con tents. If he uses this new barrel , how ever , all this trouble will be unneces sary , since one of its staves is mov able and whenever he desires to inspect the contents of the barrel all he need do is to move this stave to one side. After he has satisfied himself that the contents arc in ir > od condition he j can replace tmstave , and it will < be i held firmly in proper position by the i hoops. Another advantage is that in this way fresh air can at any time be ad mitted to all parts of the barrel , and !

The importance of having land made well pulverized and mellow before seeds are sown or planted in it is not all in the fact that the roots penetrate Jj it better when so than when it is in coarse lumps , and thus find more eas- Hy : the plant food that is in it , though this is an important consideration , but It is true that the seed germinates more P rapidly after two or three days , and d niw with some varieties a week , before it conies up in soil that is but half work- - ed. in which , by the way , much see * ! may fail to germinate at all. The soil 'that is fine and mellow tits closely , around the seed and gives a supply of j moisture to all parts alike. It excludes j the drying air. and yet it is more even- ly warmed by a bright sun , which helps to draw up moisture from below by capillary attraction. An extra Jay spent in putting a Held in good c.ondi- j tion before the seed is put in will not only hasten the growth and maturity of the crop , but will increase its amount. Exchange. Inexpensive Corn Marker. Many of the expensive corn markers are quite complicated , hence farmery give up using them and go back to the old methods. The one shown in the Illustration is simple and so so inexpenw sive to construct that any farmer with \ \ considerable area to put into corn AVill tiud it well worth having. The construction can be readily soen p from the cut. and by following the di mensions given one ought to experi ence no ditficulty in making this mark er It is designed , as will be seen , for two horses.

Planks are attached to the unners a shown , and the pole fasten- d to the center , running by a series f bolts with nuts. tor The side arm is fastened to the sled qu rith a swivel and is reversible. In op- tro ration a rope is siinplj * attached to the : lie shoe of the marker and the other cia ud hooked to the singletree. The inark- \vi r is thus held taut , but by having it n a swivel and using the rope as sug- esred there is no danger of its being roken by coining in contact with tinrj : tones or heavy clods. For the usual rj ows three and one-half feet apart , the ne rm is teu and one-half feet long and 3 lade of two-inch material. ch Bran and Shorts. egl When we speak of shorts for stock 1 poultry feeding we mean that which poi entitled to the name. We do not kei keiI lean bran that has been reground to I lake It finer , and especially would we bU void it if we thought that the cause COf the regrinding was that the bran ed ad been wet , soured and caked up. A fia few years ago a neighbor complained to us that his cows were not giving their usual amount of milk , and worn growing lean , and some of them Aere scouring badly. The ration he was feed ing seemed to be in the right propor- lions , and his ensilage was good. Aftei examining all else , we asked to see UK shorts , which he fed quite liberally. We saw it , we sinelled of it , and then we tasted of it Although it looked and smelled all right , the table was enough to reveal that it was as soui as any pickle. All the good qualities had been destroyed by overheating when damp , and while the regrliullny had reduced the caked lumps and talc- en away the sour smell , it had not re stored the feeding value. And of thai it probably never had any more thaii coarse bran and the sweepings of the mill that might have been added to it New England Homestead. Feeder for Calvea or Colts. About the biggest nuisance on tin farm is the young calf or colt that won't learn to drink milk from a pail until after repeated efforts have almost made the farmer give up in disgust , but , as this is the way these animals usually behave , the labor saving ar rangement pictured below will find ready approval among those whose duty it is to care for the > 2 animals. All that it is necessary to do with this apparatus is to attach one end to a fence , hang the pail in the cen ter and attach the calf to the outer end for a few feedings , and after that Ji j will see to the attaching himself , as far as his end is concerned. It is.not nat ural for a calf to drink at the age they are usually compelled to begin , and oiitj of the results is that when the animal does learn to drink , it swallows the milk so rapidly that an attack of in digestion is sure to follow. Fumigate the A desire is sometimes expressed bj poultry keepers for a box for fumigat ing fowls. The larger poultry supply houses have such in stock and one ia shown herewith. The essentials are a tight box with a hole so arranged thai the bird's head is outside the box. The space around the bird's neck must be packed to prevent escape of smoke. During the operation the legs are tied to keep the fowl steady. The tobacco stems or similar material must be so placed as to avoid risk of fire oricci - dent. A smoking of this kind should last three or four hours , and is the best j FOR FUMIGATING FOWLS. ray to quickly clear insects from a sit ing hen or other badly infested fowl. Jrease the bird's head before smok- ig , to clear the lice from that part. 'arm and Ilouie. Groivinj ; Beans. Neither the gardens nor field beans eed a very strong heavy soil. They o better on a light loam , rather siiudy lsan clayey. It is warmer than tho lay or muck soil , and thus admits of . 'Ing planted earlier , " and the bean is hnost tropical in its liking for hot readier and warm laud. If the soil made too rich the vines may grow rank as to shade the ground , keep- ig it cold , which results in less beans , nd there is more tendency to spot or nst on a damp , cold soil. Barnyard lanure is better than that from the orse stables , as the bean needs but ttle nitrogen. Like clover , it gath- rs nitrogen by means of the noduleaj its roots. The manure should be re Tell rooted , and fresh manure should fo ever be used. American Cultivator. Cc Incubating : Turkey so Turkeys can be hatched , in incuba rs equally as well as chicks.
