fclrs. Potts Tails How Women Should
Prepare for Motherhood
The darkest days of husband and
Wife are when they come to look for-
'ward to childless and lonely old age.
Many a wife has found herself inca-
pab'le of motherhood owing to a dis-
iplacement of the womb or lack of
strength in the generative organs.
JMrs. AhnTf'Potts
Frequent backache and distressing
pains , accompanied by offensive dis
charges and generally by irregular
And scanty menstruation indicate a dis
placement or nerve degeneration of
the womb and surroundingorgans. .
kThe question tnat troubles women
s how can a woman who has , some fe-
inale trouble bear Wealthy children ?
.Mrs. Anna Potts , of 510 Park Avenue ,
iHot Springs , Ark. , writes :
My Dear ilrs. Pinkham :
u During the early part of my married lif e I
was delic to in health ; both my husband and
1 were vcrv anxious for a child to bless our
home , but I ha'd two miscarriages , and could
'not ' carry a child to maturity. A neighbor
who had been cared by Lydia E. Piiihham'a
jVegetable Compound advised , me to try it. I
did so and soon felt that I was growing
stronger , my headaches and backaches left
me , I had no more bearing-down pains , and
felt like a new woman. Within a year I
became the mother of a strong , healthy
child , the joy of our home. Lydia E. Pink-
ham's . Vegetable Compound is certainly a
splendid reipedy , and I wish every woman
who wants to become a mothor would trj'it. "

Ventilating Corn Slioct * .
Sometimes a streak of foggy or
: ainy weather will cause the stacks of
corn in the field to mould badly , which
may be overcome if a ventilator is
used. The ventilator racks are made
of rough lumber or , If one has access
to the woods , poles could be cut which
would answer the purpose quite as
well.

This rack is not of necessity used In
the field , but can be used near the barn
after the stacks have been garnered and
in this way a considerable quantity ,
can be stored. It consists of lour up
right pieces each ten feet long , which
are used as corner posts ; cross pieces
are fastened on all sides six or eight
inches from the bottom , these pieces
being three feet long ; a set of shorter

cross pieces is provided for placing at
about the middle of the rack and an
other set near the top , the latter pieces
each being eighteen inches long. The

Value of Good Roads.
After careful inquiry it has been
found that the average haul of the
American farmer in getting his prod
uct to market or to , the nearest ship
ping station is twelve miles , and the
average cost-of hauling over the com
mon country roads is 23 cents a ton
per mile , or $3 a ton for a twelve-mile
haul , says Portland Oregonian. An
estimate places the total tons hauled
at 300,000,000 a year. On the .estimate
of $3 a ton for twelve miles this would
make the total cost of getting the sur
plus products of the farm to the local
market or to the railroad no less than
$900,000 a figure greater than the
operating-expenses of all the railroads
of the United States. If anything could
make an argument for good wagon
roads this statement surely may.
Floor for
When one has a number of hogs to
feed the trough is not always the best
thing to use for the purpose , for the
swine are apt to break it down or else
are unable to get the food fast enough
to suit them , and so get to quarreling.
One of the best methods of feeding is
a large pan or floor made of cement
audrough * logs ; this may be of any
dimensions desired , although it is best
made'just wide enough so that the ani-
infUs can feed from both sides , which
will accomplish much in the way of
keeping them out of it with their feet.
Make the frame of rough lumber or of
logs cut in half and some six or eight
inches high.
Fasten this frame securely at the
corners and also fasten securely to the
floor so that the swine will not root it
up. Then make a floor'inside of ce-
rnent , not making it very thick , but of
about the same grain as would be
used for a stable floor. If desired the
frame may include a board floor over
which the cement floor is laid. The
edge will prevent the corn from being
pushed aside and trampled upon. It is
not intended to use this feeding floor

for slop or for soft food of any kind ,
but only for grain , roots and roughage.
The illustration shows the plan clearly
and any one can easily build such a
floor , which , if carefully made , will
last for years. I

Comfort In the HOK House.
In repairing our hog houses we
found that a roll of building paper and
one of tarred paper were the best in
vestments we had made in some time- ;
the one was used on the walls and the
other on the roof so that much more
expensive repairs were saved. Then
we found it was policy to arrange the
sleeping corner in such a way that it
was impossible for it to get any of the
fllth or the wet which the swine gath
ered during the day. It was placed so
that none of the slop got into it and
about the only way it got soiled was
when the swine trampled through it
with their muddy feet. Everi hen by
taking it out into the sun each day it
made a good bed for a number of
nights. A hog is a strange animal ,
stubborn , of course , but it will not long
muss its bed if the latter is clean and
comfortable. Much of the nastiness of
hogs is due , to the neglect of their
owners. " We also arrange the sleeping
corner so that it is out of the draft ,
although the house is properly venti
lated-as ; a result there are few if any
cases of chills and colds among our
swine. All this extra good care means
healthy swine. It is not well to work
on the plan that if the hogs escape
cholera they are doing' well. Ex

Proper Storujye of Apples
To decide properly to which kind of
storage the grdwer or buyer shall scud
his fruit requires the best of judgment ,
for many factors must be considered in
milking the choice and upon their just
balancing will depend , to quite an ex
tent , the profit or loss in handling the
crop. Growers , generally , are more in
terested in storage this year , probably
than usual. To all growers , to those
who usually hold more or less of their
fruit for winter sale or home use , and
to the buyers who must plan for the
best keeping of the purchased fruit ,
the bulletins of the agricultural experi
ment stations will be of interest and
value. One of these discusses critically
the factors which iniluence the keep
ing quality of apples , as ascertained
through many years' experience at tlie
station or by correspondence and in
terviews with the leading apple hand
lers of the country. It also gives de
tailed results of the storage of 103 va
rieties of apples , in the ordinary tem
perature room of the station fruit stor
age house , or in a cold storage build
ing , with notes upon most of the varie
ties as handled by practical storage
men.

Formerly beans Avere pulled by

ter , shown here , is a two-wheeled ma
chine , having two long steel blades , so
adjusted that as the machine passes
over the ground they sweep along just
at or below the surface and cut the
bean stalks or pull them up. The
blades are set obliquely , sloping back
ward toward one another.
Wintering Fall Calves.
If the calf is worth carrying through
the winter it is certainly worth caring
for properly and by properly is meant
good food and water nnd proper care.
If the calf is strong and healthy it
ought- pay well for the best atten
tion that can be given it ; first of all it
needs a dry , clean place , not warmed
by artificial heat , but as warm as lack
of draughts in a coinfortabde stable
will make it. The early days of the
calf , just after weaning , are of great
importance to it and too much care
cannot be taken to sec that the milk
given it ( s absolutely fresh and pure
find fed in proper quantities.
As a rule , the calf will properly take
care of eight pounds of milk per day ,
which amount can be gradually in-
creased tlmtil at a month old it is con
suming twelve pounds daily. About
this time it ought also to become in
terested in hay and after a while will
begin chewing its cud. A calf built up
in this itianner during the winter will
be in excellent shape to turn out to
pasture/ / the ' spring and get most of
its livirtg uutl'l fall , when you will have
i splendid animal , one you will bo
proudto 'add to your 'herd.

A good , vigorous colony produces an
.verage of 100 pounds of honey each
rear , besides storing up enough to
ceep themselves during the winter.

jis 550 colonies last year 'produced

Incident chronicled In the New York
Times. A prominent politician has a
wife who Is a model of domestic care

bread , and takes great pride in having
her loaves turn out well.
One evening she had set the batch of
dough to rise in the kitchen and was

old boy came running to her , crying ,
"Mamma mamma , there's a mouse
Jumped into your bread-pan ! "
