Better prices do 'not make bettei butter , but better butter will always tend to boost prices. Try It. Guess-work methods are the great est curse to the farm , and explain mort failures than an } ' one thing. Remember , the best seed Is non < too good. It Is a losing game to laboi over seed of low germinating power. The farmer is not looking for pro tection or charity , but he does wan ! his rights , and he has a' right to ex pect that he will get them. While sheep are growing wool and making mutton for you they are clean ing the fields of weeds and spreading valuable manure over the land. There will be much cleaner milk If the udder ! s wiped off with a damp doth , and the long hair clipped off of the udder and flanks and tail before milking. "Stretches" In sheep are caused by too much dry feed. When the sheep are seen to spread their legs out and stretch give a bran mash and an ance of raw linseed oil. It never pays to become so everlast ingly "stuck" on any make of machine that we can not see the good points about any other similar machine nor the weak points of our particular fa vorite. Some of rne dairymen were disposed to resent the hue and cry raised about flirty dairying , thinking that the mak ers of substitutes for dairy products were at the bottom of it all. If prices are an indication of the demand for dairy products the dairyman has no cause to worry. The milk goat industry Is occupying considerable attention in the East. Sev enty-seven goats have been accepted for registration by the American Milch Goat Association during the year. One hundred and eighty-seven are now on record. Any goat yielding one quart w more of milk a day is eligible. The Japanese are a progressive race , rfcey are adopting' methods and ways from all the civilized countries. A consular report says they are devoting zareful attention to the improvement of their poultry. Experiments have Bhown that Minorcas and Andulusians are the best breeds suited to their purpose so birds from England as well as America have been selected and Shipped to Tokio. Ohio has a stringent law in refer ence to the sale of milk products. It prohibits the sale of milk under the following conditions : 1. From cows fed on unhealthy feed. 2. From cows fed on wet distillery or starch waste. 3. From diseased or sick cows. 4. From cows kept in a place that Is unclean or In an insanitary condi tion. 6. From cows kept in a cramped or unhealthy condition. 6. When water or other foreign substance has been added. 7. When it is un clean , Impure , unhealthy or unwhole some. Fowls Take Cold Easily. On cold nights the fowls roost closely together and in this way keep warm. Should they crowd on the roost they are apt to sweat and in the morn ing when they get down on the floor of the pen are apt to feel chillf on account of the difference in tempera ture. If , however , there is litter on the floor and the night before grain was thrown among the litter it will uot take the biddies long to under stand that by scratching they will not only keep warmer , but there is a strong possibility of finding something to eat. Hens are not as dumb as they look. The Hor.ie "Will Stay. The horse was going to be driven out of existence by the locomotive , but in stead thereof he multiplied exceeding ly and increased in value , although his Iron substitute was tearing all over the country in every direction. Then he was to be reduced to Innocuous desuetude by the trolley car , and after that by the automobile. But the De partment of Agriculture reports -that in eleven years the number of horses in this country has increased from under fourteen to more than twenty millions , the aggregate farm value of them has advanced from less than half a Dlllton to very nearly two billions , and the average value of the animal has ad vanced nearly three-fold , from $34.26 in 1893 to $95.04 in 1900. Perhaps some 3f our timid manufacturers who are in a panic lest they should be crushed : f they were exposed to a little com petition may take encouragement from 'he prosperity of the horse. Exchange. Flrat Wild HoraeN. The first horses of the western plain ? probably were brought there by the Spaniards. In 1545 , more than fifty roars before Jamestown VAB settled , rCoronado. the Spanish captain , wai roaming about the plains of Nev Mexico , and he tells of the dogs usec by the Indians to haul their plundei on lodge poles , indicating that they hac no horses at that date , says the St Louis Post-Dispatch. In 1716 the Spanish affain workec their way eastward across the plalni and their letters tell of the astonish ment of thg Indians at s'eeing th < horses they had with them. The ex pedition was constantly losing horse ; and there in little doubt that the firsi droves of western horses originated from these strays. In the early days upon the plains they were as great a pest to travelers as they are today.Woe be unto the luckless camper who allowed a bane of wild horses to get close enough tc his gentle horses , turned out for tlu night , to sweep them off. It was al most useless to follow , for the call oi the wild comes to the gentlest ol horses when he is thrown with a band of this kind -that have been born and raised free of all restraint. It is c well known fact that the hardest ont rte "cut out , " the leader of them all in a mad race across the prairie , Is the old , gentle , well broken saddle or worli horse , once he gets a taste of sucli freedom. How to Treat the Work Team. Horses employed for farm worls should not be pampered but should bt fed generously so as to sustain vigor and good spirits. A team ill fed and consequently in poor condition and fee ble will not accomplish much real work and it is a waste of time to hire an expensive hand to drive such a team. The work horses should be fed early in the morning and they should have y liberal feeding. The comfort and rest of the team will be vastly promoted if the harness is entirely removed at noon while they are feeding. Allow them plenty of time for a good meal and par tial digestion before they are put to work for the afternoon. It is poor pol icy to put them to work right after eating a hearty meal or upon a ful ! stomach. If we would allow the teams more rest at noon we would accomplish more work than when they are only allowed time to swallow their food. At evening let them be well groomed and theiv legs , bellies and feet relieved from all mud and filth. The practice of many farmers of driving a team through cold water to wash the filth off their feet and legs is dangerous , as it causes many diseases that they are subject to. A warm or overheated team should not be put in a cold , airy place , but first exercised and then blanketed and put in a warm stable , and after the blankets are removed they should be wiped dry with straw or cloths. When a' team has been exposed to rains they should not be left to become dry , but should be rubbed dry , as chills , fevers and other ailments often result from allowing them to dry by the evaporation of the moisture from their bodies. liicc. A good preparation for killing hog lice is made by melting three ptats of lard and mixing it with one ptfnt of : oal oil. The lard may be rancid. Even meat frying will do , the salt be ing no objection. When the grease has been melted , nix the coal oil well with it and apply svith a rag or brush while warm , but aot hot , to the backs and behind the jars of the animals. Rub the mixture tvell into the hair. Since hogs will not readily stand while the application is being made , give them an appetizing slop in a trough and apply while the inimals are drinking. In this way one person can , by rapid manipulation , ; rease twenty to thirty hogs in about ive minutes. The benefit of putting the grease on : he backs and behind the ears is that : t will spread by gravity and finally : over all of the hog's body. There Is 10 objection , however , to greasing the mimal all over , for the more grease ; mt on the more lice will be killed. It s preferable to make the application n the evening , at feeding time , so that ) ue hog will grease another In rubbing igainst each other in the bed. Before : he application is made , or Immediately ifterward , clean out and remove all > edding material and disinfect the hog louse with coal oil and carbolic add , > r coal oil alone , for killing ; all lice : hat may be harboring there. Repeat the hog greasing once or ; wice at intervals of about a week ipart , spraying their sleeping quarters it the same time , and the lice will ilsappear. In summer we kill lice on hogs by ligging a wallow hole about two feet ieep in their lot or pasture , filling It ibout half full of water , and pouring i gallon of coal oil on the water. When ie weather Is warm the hogs will wtl- ow in the water covering themselves vith mud at the same time , and the Ice are killed through having to touch : he animals. Oil and water will not nir , hence the pure coal oil comes in ontact with the hide of the hogs , which s supposed to cause blistering or re newing of hair , but In no case , with nany experiments , have any such re- tults followed ' f t9m the use of pure al oil. It is likely that wallowing & the muddy water tempers the ftcttoa > f the oil. SAVING PAINT KONEY. It Cannot lie Done by VnlnK Cheap 3Iaf < > rInl and Cheaii Painter * .

BABY'S WATEEY ECZEMA Itched and Scratched Until Blood Ran ? 5O Spent on Useless Treat ments Disease Seemed Incurable Cured by Cnticurw for $1.5O. "When my little boy was two and a half months old he broke out on both cheeks with eczema. It was the itchy , -watery kind and we had to keep his little hands wrapped up all the time , and if he would happen to get them uncovered he would claw his face till the blood streamed down on his cloth- Ing. We called in a physician at once , but he gave an ointment which was so severe that ray babe would scream when it was put on. We changed doc tors and medicines until we had spent lifty dollars or more and baby was get ting worse. I was so worn out watch ing and caring for him night and day that I almost felt sure the disease was incurable. But finally reading of the good results of the Cuticura Remedies , t determined to try them. I can truth fully say I was more than surprised , for I bought oulja dollar and a half's worth of the Cuticura Remedies ( Cuti cura Soap , Ointment and Pills ) , and they did more good than all my doc tors' medicines I had tried , and in fact entirely cured him. His face is per fectly clear of the least spot or scar of anything. Mrs. W. M. Coiuerer , Burnt Cabins , Pa. , Sept. 15 , 1908. " Potter Drug & Chem. Corp. , Solo Props , of Cuticura Remedies. Boston. A woman who is sick and suffering , and won't at least try a medicine which has the record of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound , is to blame for her own wretched condition. > There are literally hundreds of thousands of women in the United States who have been benefited by this famous old remedy , which was produced from roots and herbs over thirty years ago by a woman to relieve woman's suffering. Read what these women say : Camden , N. J. " It is with pleasure that I send my testimo nial for Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound , hopingit may induce other suffering women to avail themselves of th benefit of tliis valuable remedy. " I suffered from pains in my back and side , sick headache * , no appetite , was tired and nervous all the time , and so weak I could hardly stand. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound made me a well woman and this valuable medicine shall always have my praise. " Mrs. W. P. Valentine , 902 Lincoln Ave. , Camden , N. J. Erie , Pa. "I suffered for five years from female troubles , and at last was almost helpless. I tried three doctors but they did me no good. My sister advised me to try Lydia E. Pinkham' Vegetable Compound , and it has made me well and strong. I hope all suffering women will just give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial , for it is worth its weight in gold. " Mrs. J. P. Endlieh , H. F. D. 7 , Erie , Pa. Since we guarantee that all testimonials which we pub lish are genuine , is it not fair to suppose that if Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound had the virtue to help these women it will help any other woman who is suffer ing from the same trouble. For SO years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable ( c * Compound has been the standard remedy for 7/1 / female ills. No sick woman does justice to ( ( /l herself who will not try this famous medicine.

How tenderly their health should be preserved , not by constant medication , but by careful avoidance of every medicine of an injuri ous or objectionable nature , and if at any time a remedial agent is required , to assist nature , only those of known excellence should be used ; remedies which are pure and wholesome and truly beneficial in effect , like the pleasant laxative remedy , Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna , manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna has come into general favor in many millions of well informed families , whose estimate of its quality and excellence is based upon personal knowledge and use. Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna has also met with the approval of physicians gen erally , because they know it is wholesome , simple and gentle in its action. We inform all reputable physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna , obtained by an original method , from certain plants known to them to act most beneficially , and presented in an agreeable syrup in which the wholesome Cal if ornian blue figs are used to promote the pleasant taste ; therefore it is not a secret remedy , and hence we are free to refer to all well informed physicians , who do e not approve of patent medicines and never favor indiscriminate self-medication. © © Please to remember and teach your children also that the genuine Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna always has the full name of the Company California Pig Syrup Co. plainly printed on the front of every package and that it is for sale in bottles of one size only. If any dealer offers any other than the regular Fifty cent size , or having printed thereon the name of any other company , do not accept it. If you fail to get the genuine you will not get its beneficial effects. Every family should always have a bottle on hand , as it is equally beneficial for the parents and the children , whenever a laxative remedy is required. \
