Gentlemen- cannot speak too highly of the value of Peruna.
I believe that I owe my life to its wonderful merits. I suffered
with catarrh of the head and lungs in its worst form , until the
doctors fairly gave me up , and I despaired of ever getting well
again.
"I noticed your advertisement and the splendid testimonials
given by the people who had been cured by Peruna , and
determined to try a bottle. I felt but little better , but used a
second and third bottle and kept on improving slowly.
"It took six bottles to cure me , but they were worth a King's

believer in its worth-"Mrs. Col. E. J. Gresham.

\Vheclbirrow for Winter.
There Is more or less carting to be

parrow. The illustration sliows how
easily the farm barrow , whether of the
box type , as shown , or with the flaring
sides , may be utilized. A broad runner
is made ( see figure 1) ) of two pieces ,
? f inch board , with an upright piece
which holds the runner to the axle of
the baiTow.
This runner is faced with sheet iron
( the blacksmith can put it on at small
expense ) , which also runs up at the
ends. Remove the axle from the bar
row , if it is round , as it probably is. and
insert a square axle of wood. Have
a piece of iron made like that shown at
figure 2 , and apply it to axle and
runner , as showu in figure 3. It should
be screwed to tne upright strip , which

by heat as bad as the horse , and re

being smalLr , lie can walk closer to
the row of growing plants.
To make a good mule worth from
50 to $80 at weaning time or $140
co $100 as a 2yearold. . he should be
foaled from a large mare in April 01
May. He should run with the dam

this time he should be at least 52

of light , and feed oats , with clover and

I-'ffects of l > rnlnnSe.
By means of drainage of land the
rnrlous chemical actions which take
jlace through the action of the atmos
phere on the surface soil are carried
flown to a greater or less pxtent into
the subsoil , for as the water level Is
owered the air enters from above to
111 the cavities of the soil By drain
age , also , the depth to which root *
will penetrate is increased , for the
roots will not grow in the absence of
oxygen , and rot as soon as they reach
a permanent water level.

The German Empire and the Unitec
States Government are to have com

The United States Government has
commenced the work of irrigating 2 -
000,000 acres of land in Central Wash

The best remedy for lice in poultry
houses is to add a pound of concen
trated lye to a wash-boiler of soap
suds and to apply the suds hot on the
walls , floors and roofs of the houses.
All lice , with their nits , will thus be
destroyed surely and quickly.
An excellent way to test seeds Is
to place a few between two flannel
cloths , dampening the cloths with
warm water , placing them in a warm
location and keeping them moist. Some
of the seeds will germinate if kept
at an even temperature. Another meth
od is to p'ant a few In a cigar box fill
ed with earth.
The winter Is the time to clean up
the farm. On some farms the waste
water Is thrown near the house ; dead
grass and weeds accumulate , and filth
in various forms exists. Cold weather
hides many disagreeable things , for
then tfiefe are no odors , but the filth
remains , however , and decay begins
with the warm weather and spring.
Every farm needs a good cleaning up
at least once a year.
If butter is a specialty on the farm
the pigs are necessary to insure a
profit. In the winter season the feed
ing of skim milk and buttermilk to
pigs is the best and cheapest mode of
making pork. With a clover patch
for the pigs to occupy in summer and
a mess of bran and buttermilk at night
they will grow rapidly without any
other food. If pigs are confined in
pens they should have the grass cut
and thrown into the pens , as they
should have some kind of bulky food.
