Williams , of Gardiner , JIaine , writes : "I was a great sufferer from female troubles , and Lydia E. I'inlcham's Veg-e- "table Compound restored mo to health in three months , after my physician declared that an operation , was abso lutely necessary. " < . - - ' Mrs. Alvina Sperling : of 154 Cley- fcourne Ave. , Chicago , 111. , writes : "I suffered from female troubles , a tumor and much inflammation. Two of the beet doctors in Chicago decided that an operation was necessary to save my life. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound entirely cured me without an operation. " FACTS FOR 3ICSC WOMEN.

O ! - Early growth helps early maturity. Regular feeding makes animals more content. To make a success of farming aroid expenses. Underfeeding stunts growth and over- fcedliig Is a waste of food and of tlma Japan raised last year the largest barley crop In the history of the ooun- Owing to the scarcity of crops in Turkey , American flour Is going to that country In larger quantities than ever before. Any system of agriculture which en courages grain selling rather than dairying and stock raising Is open to ecrlous criticism. Give the boys a lamb or two to care for as their own. All the rest will share with those you place under the keeping of the boys. Chicago men have established a milk flactory at Euosburg Falls , Vt , with a capital of $1,000,000. It will hare a capacity for using the milk of 5,000 cows. There is nothing like experience on a wheel scraper to teach a team to pull. A team that has been ueod oaa season on a grader simply do not know how to get Growth is prolit In anything or any kind of business. Laad as well as lire stock and grain can be made to advance in growth and ralue , in rich ness of soil as well as In price. Halter-pulling Is a bad trick in a horse * . Often It is brought on by care less usage in the stall. Never do any thing that would frighten a horsa iu his stall. Look to it that no one else does , either. We have better laws for regulating the sale of grass seeda uoV than form erly , but do not forget to take a magni fying glass along wiien buying seeds. Weed seeds will sprout and grow In spite of the haw. Tie farmer who plants tested seed cora knows that It will grow , while the one who plants seed that IB not tested has no way o knowing whihar his seed will grow or not. Success usually goes with the man who knows. Half the 'bad hablte of horses may bo laid at the door of the mon who han- fllo them. I have sen a mare cured of pulling at the halter just by the change of a master. Kindness always brings the best kind of returns. The old method of the haphazard feeding of swlno and the lazj man's method of throwing out corn to the hogs in quantity are fast becoming ob solete. The feeding of swlno has be come a science. Rations are prepared with a definite end in view. Many a man going to an auction sale of pure-bred stock never Intends to buy. Before ho knows it , howerer , he's In tha garno ; and thereby many have found a road that has led to fortuno. 3he microbe- for better stock Is a per- jistent animalism. It overcomes persons unfit as well as those fit to conduct the business. Thora are two plans for keeping a farm in order. The ono la to set aside a date as an annual clearing house event , as the housewife does , and let thlzxgs slide the rest of the time. The other Is to aim to keep up the llttlo ends of things from day to day. The hitter plan la by far the most prefer able , as no doubt moat careful farmers ivill agree Stable 3Immrc. When the manure Is exposed to the action of the elements and the leach- Ings allowed to drain away it rapidly decreases In value. Experiments con ducted to determine the facts have in dicated that horse manure thrown Into a loose pile and subjected to the action of the elements will lose nearly one- half of Its valuable fertilizing constit uents In the course of sis months , and that any klrul of manure , even in a compact mass , wizen so placed that all water falling upon It quickly runs through and off sustains a considerable loss , though less than the former case , caya a writer in American Cultivator. Therefore , after having made all the good stable manure practicable , protect It in some way from fermentation and leaching and supplement it with com mercial fertilizers after it is applied to lie soil. ( Jrovrlnjc Kood Cropn. Theoretically when I feed my cows a full amount of good corn silage and alfalfa hay my milk yield should be satisfactory , but actually I find my kind of cows will increase their in I Ik giving if T a.Id some cormup.il to the bill of fare , and increase still iore : If [ n iuMKion I furnish uDout two pounds par tiay of oiliucal per cow : hence , while I am pei-sonally very inr-h in fiu r of the l'arner-firyr.in : ! ! : grvin ' ' ! < - . > jis t * > ti ! ' ful'- i- " - . : of v'r./Uu i in 't , c * di-avudng to do to my self , yet to all I grow I never hesitate to bring in as supplementary by pur chase any feed needed which my cows can use at a profit to me. I have no manner of doubt that a ton of clover hay. being all one u'-re could produce , Is of materially less feedii : : ; worth tham a ton from an acre having grown a three ton crop , all coivJitionr of cutting and curing in both cases be ing equal. I know that when I sevure a crop of 100 bushels of corn per acre I have more than twice as much feed as I have if I am so unfortunate as to get but fifty bushels per acre. W. F. McSparran. fur Hoprc. Experiments show that as much pork can bo made from one acre of good pasture as from one ton of shorts or corn. The Minnesota experiment sta tion says that clover makes the best hog pasture in that State , but Trof. Waters o Missouri says that it is not sale or even desirable to rely upon a fiingle crop , excepting alCalfa where it is an assured success , to furnish pas ture far hogs throughout the season. He re < * ommends a succession of pas tures from the beginning of tliq , season until the hogs are ready for market , making the feed richer and more con centrated toward the close of the sea son as wo approa < ? 3i the finishing or fattening ipericd. FIJI- this purpose he recommends red clover or alfalfa , cow peas and soy beans. It will pay the farmer wilio Is rais ing hogs to provide a good pasture , even if ho is feeding thorn o-fclier feeds , for clovers , cow peas and soy beans are ridh in protein and make a good adjunct to any ration. The cheapest gains that can be made in hog rais ing ore < w2iere the liogs are fed skim milk arwl allowed to run on n good pasture of either clover or alfalfa. Where possible to do so a pasture v. to be prof erred to the dry lot Xor feed ing hogs , not only in the luto/rest / cheapened gains but also for the bet ter health of the animals. Sheep on Cara should be exercised In pasturing siieep on clover or , In fact , on any mem ber of the legume family , for unless judgment Is used there may be consid erable loss from bloating. There is a right and a wrong way of pasturing these crops. The right way is to allow the clover or alfalfa almost to come Into bloom before turning In the sheep. Then there should be sown with these crops some timothy , redtop or any other nonlegtunlnous plant , for where there Is a mixture this way tha sheep will alternately oat one and the other and so reduce the chance of bloat. When turning In the flock for th * first time they should bo already filled with food. For example , the day they are to bo turned into the clover pasturr- feed them early in the morning a llttlt grain nnd hay , and when the sun is well up and hot turn them out. Then , in stead of filling themselves at once they will eat a little and then look for a col spot to rest in. Joseph E. Wing has , he says , tried this plan with great success. He also advises keeping before thorn constantly a receptacle contain ing salt and air slaked linie mixed. Once in the pasture they should never b moved until It comes time to change to fresh pasture that is , they should not be brought Into the yards at night or they will be in danger bloating when let out again In the morning. Eaxtora Agrrlcultwre In the East applied agricultural sci ence had to battle against old customs , conservatism , failure , Inertia. Tiie young blood went West Science cauglht the conditions young and was able to dbow results soon enough to enlist the co-operation of all classes. Science applied to farming was first greated witih hoots and jeers. "Book farming and fancy tlffics , " the country people called It ; and the fiunny papers waxed funnier with alleged Interviews of the proverbial professor with the recalcitrant cow. I could tell , If It were not betraying confidence , of one agricultural university which hnd Its entire faculty , Its building , its scien tific equipment , for four years before a baker's dozen of students turned up to take instruction. Wherever science has been applied to farms in the East high values rule , as In the West values oven higher than in tilia West , for In c-Ic.se proxim ity to the markets of the large Eastern cities the East can go Into the special ized farming of perishable products like llowers and celery and potatoes and garden truck , which the West dare not touch on a specialized scalo. Miiine is winning rich profits from her highly fertilized , spoon-fed potatoes , Just aa Iowa and Wisconsin are earning wealth in corn. From a single acre $900 worth of celery baa been raised In a year , $8,000 worth of carnations , 3150worth of potatoes , $200 worth cu table corn ; and I personally know of one small apple orchard that last year yielded its owners $1,500. From sev enteen acres of grapes one grower clears $1,700 a year ; and there Is on record n peach orchard of 1GO acres which gave Its o\vner a harvest of ? 15,000.
