CfTTINO CLOVKIl EARLY. This year of all others in the West the farmers should cut theirclover early. Be sure to cut it before the seed has formed. There is a physical law in this that will help tho furmer if he is wise enough to observe it. Clover is a bicunial one of those plants that commences to dio whan once it has produced seed. Here is the poiut: By cutting before the seed forms you can cut two crops in one season and still keep the root alive. At least it will not die because its purpose has been ful filled. This year wo shall need all the hay we can get. Skillful management of our clover nieaJows will givo us a large additional yield of hay and have the roots ri:ht for the next season. That wise farmer, the late Iliram Smith, once allowed us a field of medium clover nine years old, from which he had taken that year fully three tons per aero in three cuttings. But there is another great ad vantage in early cutting. The hay for milk mid butter purposes is worth double that of the ordinary grade. Now is the time, according to Hoard's Dairyman, which gives the foregoing advice, to make a mistake that will oc cupy us a whole year in mourning about. Cut the clover before it seeds. Cut two crops. (Jet more hay per acre. Get hay worth twice ns much as tho ordinary kind, l'rerei ve vcur clover meadow for next year. One great reason clover meadows kill out in winter is because they become exhausted in summer by being allowed to stand until the seed has formed before cutting. New York World. BEAN8 FOB, TilOFIT. In carrying out a system of rotation beans can often bu grown with prolit. One advantage with them is that they occupy the ground but a short time, and all the work necessary can bo done with out hiring much extra help. While beans will grow in almost any kind of soil, yet to secure tho best re sults a good soil, well prepared, is neces sary. They should not be planted until nil danger of frost is past, as they do belter if they can make a steady growth from the time they are planted until they are matured. Many do not plant until late, but when this is done there is al ways the risk of hot, dry weather blast ing the crop, and in many case a better yield could be obtained by earlier plant ing. The soil should be well plowed and thoroughly harrowed. By prepar ing the soil properly before planting tho cultivation can bo given earlier and more thoroughly. Mark out tho rows three and a half feet apart, runuiug out the furrows reason ibly shallow. If tho planting is done in hills, drop three or four beans every two feet. A better yield, however, can generally bo re ceived by planting in drills four inches apart ; do not cover deep; two inches is plenty. Cultivate often enough to keep the weeds down and the soil in a good tilth. Generally it will be necessary to hoe once or twice, depending somewhat upon the condition of the soil. Clean, thorough cultivation is neces sary to get the best growth and yield, and the number of workings that may bo neccstary will depend upon the character ami condition of the soil, and in many cases one more working given at the riijlit time, while not adding much to the cost of the crop, will increase the yield and quality. Kspeciully when planted early it will not always do to wait to harvest the c op until all the plants Btop blossoming. When the bulk of the pods are ripe the crop sheuld be harvested, as after that there is risk ol loss. Tift vines can be yulled up or cut oil close to the ground and put bosely into small piles to cure out. In a few days as soon as the puds and stalks are dry enough they should be hauled in and stored under shelter in a barn or shed loft where there is a good circulation of air. They should ho threshed out wheu the other work will permit. If the weather is dry they cm be left to dry out suflicieutly to thresh iu the field. With an average yield beans can be made a profitably crop. tit. Louis Republic. CAltK OF THE HEIFER CALF. The idea in past years, by the many, has beeu that a cow was a cow and, if one was tatter than another, it was a case of 'vow luck." This left hue breeding iu the hands of the few. It was called the rich l armor's "sport," which the ordinary farmer could n.t allord, and bear the extra expeuse of keeping tine cows. A chauge is now ap parent. Only the rich can afford to keep a poor cow. Good breeding aud rational care have much 1 1 do with the develop iuvnt of tho cow, Let th breed oi'ftrudo be what it may, the calf, if worth raising at all, deserves good care and treatment. The Idea is here expressed that many a worthiest cow to-day, if she had been properly treated when a calf and heifer, cared for and suitably fed, would have niado a far better cow, of fine productive powers. For, wbilo all cows have a born possibility, the owner is responsible if this cow is not developed into that ex treme limit of production. To this end the heifer calf should have a line of good ancestry. A noted au thority says that "cows breed from the blood, not their performance," so that a heifer calf from a milking strain is pre ferable to one that has a promis cuous parentage. The care of a calf and cow is a matter of administering to the office of the cow's motherhood, and all of the directing agencies of stable and field should be to enlarge the powers of the animal to increase her milk produc tion, 10 that when the heifer, at twenty eight or thirty months old, comes into the dairy, she will be to all intents and purposes a developed cow. Tho calf, if a spring arrival, should bo taken from the cow in due timo, and put on prepared tooA. Here the dairy man must face tho question whether to take tho calf off at once, or allow it to run with the mother for a few weeks. A matter of profit comei in, for butter fats are worth twenty -five cents per pound, aud tho latter practice aoon makes the litter heifer a costly ono. Skim milk, even when lavishly ted, is not an ideal food. In the stomach of the young calves it does not readily digest, for, while the butter lats are not iu them selves a sustaining food, they are great promoters of digestion and creators of energy. If profit is nu object, and growth is insisted upon, a substitute must bo found. Linseed meal, cooked to a jelly and added to skim milk, at the rate ot about two pouuds to ono hundred pounds of milk, makes tho ration about equal to the whole milk. Later on, oat meal, with tho bulls sifted out and then scalded, makes a capital addition to the linseed. Feed the milk sweet and warm. Do not let it get sour, and then feed cold. Sour milk has lost about all its sugar element. The sugar, next to tho casein, is the most important thing iu skim milk. Thiuk of feeding a baby calf cold sour milk I What mother would think of feeding it ta her own baby, and yet this is, over and over again, a mail's judgment of infantile wants. When the calf has developed its fourth stomach and begins to chew its cud, solids may be fed along with the fluids, but the milk or mush must not be aban doned for some months. I am inclined to think that the calf should be stabled the first summer; not tied up, but given the freedom of the stable, well bedded, and not be compelled to undergo the life of a "grasser." It costs as much to keep the brood of flies that sub sist upon the summer calf as the calf it self, with the additional disadvantage that the calf is compelled to prepare this food for the flies. It tho stablo will en able the calf to retain the flies' share, the gain iu worth will be surprising. There is no reason why the heifer calf should bo so poorly kept that, when six mouths old, it will sell for less than a veal calf of four weeks. When the time of stomach development ceases, clover, whole oats, and similar food, may be fed, but tho feeding should not be so lavish as to'induce a beef forming habit. Feed so as to make good growth and thrift. If we so feed as to fatten the heifer unduly, tho tendency is that, when high feeding for milk is attempted, the beef form again appears, and is hard to hold in check. Handle the little calf so that when it develops into a heifer it will have cow habits. Make her life as cow like as possible. Do not f ol with her, but handle her; go through with the milking motions, at least, so that when she takes her place in the dairy she will not have to be subjected to the "breaking" ordeal. The two-year-old heifors had best run with the dairy herd, come and go with it, take their places iu the stables and have their dish of brau. These heifers are now expected to calve in October, and through the summer each one has not only her own life and growth tc pro vide for, but another life must be sup ported, bone and muscle provided for. Nitrogenous foods, like oats and clover, have had a stimulating etlect upon milk production, aud at this time it is fair to suppose also a developing etleci upon the udder itself. This, with good stable life in the win ter, fluah making foods rather than fat tening one?, and those to soma extent of a somewhat succulent character, regu lar feeding and comfortable warmth, ab sence of the "toughening" process, with plenty of pure air and abundant sunlight to build up constitution aud vigor, will give us tho hardy cow with power to transmit her good qualities to her daugh ters.

Kvery good, moral woman, of whatever station in life, exerts over a certain circle an immense influence for good, aud when sucj a woman, in a wise, kind and sisterly way, reaches out to save or protect one of her own sex, tha work never goes wholly unrewarded. It has been sai I by experts who ought to know tha truth that the most irrevocable and hope less human object is a woman who drinks. Then the more need to protect such a woman from her own vice, and to rescue her chil dren from its consequences. Intemperate women frequent the shy neighborhoods of a great city. They are pariahs even there, hooted at by boys and men, and shunned by other women. No one helps them or gives them a chance, and the only recognition of them is when they are arrested and sent to jail for ten days.

I found the reception room crowded, and it was only alter an hour's waiting that I succeeded in obtaining an in terview. Dr. Ounn is a distinguish) looking man, and impressed me at onte by his manly bear ing an I air of sincerity. I took the seat he courteously offered me. and said: "Are you aware, doctor, of the commotion your letter has cause 1" Dr. Uurin smiled an I replied: "Things out of the ordinary usually cause comment.

"How long have you known of this remedy, doctor?" I asked, "Nearly ten years," he replied. "My at tention was originally called to the Safe Cure by a serious case of lirigbt's disease, which was considered hopeless, and yet, much to my surprise, under its Use the patient re covered. 1 have tried it In other cases since then constantly, and my original faith in its power has been confirmed. I have seen pa tients recover from inflammation of the bladder, gravel and Hright's disease when nil other tn atment had failed, and I liaVe found it especially ettlcient in all femnle troubles." "Can you specify any particular cases, doc tor!" I asked. "That is a delicate thing to do," the doctor replied; "hut, as 1 always keep a written record of my rases, I can accommodate you." Thereupon the doctor opened his desk and produced his record book. Turning over the leaves he saidl "Here is a case of a gentleman who was a great sufferer of inflammation of the blad der of long standing. He had consulted a number of physicians without benefit. When first consulted I myself tried the usual methods of treatment, but without success, and I Anally advised him to try Warner's Bafe Cure. He felt better from the start, and in a few weeks was entirely cured," The doctor turned a few pages further and then said : "Here is another case. It is that of a gen tleman who had frequent attacks of renal calculi, which, as you know, is gravel form ing in the kidneys, lie had never been able to prevent these formations, but after an unusually severe attack I recommended him to try the Kafe Cure, which he did, and although It is throe years since he took the remedy, he has never had au attack Biuce." The doctor continued to turn the leaves of bis book, and suddenly exclaimed: "Here is a most remarkable case. It is that of a lady who had suffered for some time from Hright'sdisease. Hhebecameencienf, and about the fourth month suddenly became blind, had convulsions and finally fell into a stnte of coma, caused by uremic or kidney poison. Several physicians who saw her said she could not live, and in this view I fully concurred. As she could still swallow I siid, as a last resort, that they might try Warner's (Safe Cure. They did so, and to the surprise of every one she recovered Bhe has since given birth to a living child, and Is perfectly well," f "those are certainly most wonderful cases, doctor," I said, "and while I do not for a moment question their authenticity, I should consider it a great favor if you would give me their names. I think the importance of the subject would fully justify it." I "In tha interest of other sufferers I think lyou are correct." Dr. Ounn finally observed, after a moment's thought. "Both the lady and her husband are so rejoiced, so grateful, over her recovery thnt I know she is only too (Jad to have others hear of it. The lady is Airs. Eaves, wide ot tho well known cos turner. She was not only restored, but is in perfect health to-day."
