All letters are re eeived, opened, read and an 1 swered bv women only. A woman can freely talk of er privute illness to a woman ; thus has been estab lished the eternal con fi dence be tween Mrs. I'inkba in and the women of America. This con fidence has in duced more than 1(10.000 women to write Mrs. Pinkham for advice during the last few months. Think what a volume of experience bhe has to draw from! Ko physiciun living wrr treated so many cases of female ills, and from this vast experi ence surely it is more than possible she has gained the very knowledge that will help your case. She is glad to bave you write or call upon ber. You will find hi-r a woman full of sympathy, with a great sVsire to assist thc.M- who are sick. If bermcdi eine is not what you need, she will frankly tell you so, and there are nine chances out of ten that she will tell you exactly what to do for relief She asks nothing in return except your good will, and her advice lias relieved thousands. Surely, any ailing woman, rich or poor, is very 'foolish if she does not take advantage of this generous oiler of assistance.

Tho oluto is a hardy plant when it is protected from actual freezing. In deed the tubers will survive without injury when the ground in which they lie is actually frozen. This immunity in due to the fact that the water in the potatoes holds some matters in solu tion, and f olutions do not freeze at the actual freezing point of pure water. Thus in the South potatoes may be plauted during February or early March, when the ground U free from frost and dry enough to tin n a good furrow. The steel is put in in the usual mauncr, but covered ith a dou ble ru!ga as a protection against the possible freezing of the soil. As soon a the rihk of frost is over, the ridge is leveled down with the Acme har row, leirving the turlaeo in the finest conditiou ; a light, sloping tooth har row is used aTter that and nutil the po tatoes are too large. If danger of a late frost is imminent, a lurrow is thrown ovir the young plants, or this may be done anyhow, us it encourages root growth ami certainly increases the product. 'Ibis method is used only for the early crop, tho main planting being made iu May and up to first oi July for eucccsMoii.

Prompt action With the proper remedies is the only safeguard. Uouso plants are far more liable to bo infested with insects than those in the garden on account of the warm, closo atmosphere, which is favorable to their rapid increase. The red spider, green fly and mealy bug are the most common. When a plant becomes brown and sickly looking this Condi, tion is generally the work of the red spider, which feeds on tho juices oi the plant a minute insect but I powerful worker. He especially love fuchsias and salvias. To destroy hint use clear water and use liborally two" or three times a day. Water doo more to drive away this pest than any thing else, if used thoroughly and per sistently. An occasional sprinkling does no good. The mealy bug is a white mealy or downy-lookinir insect. thnt is troublesome to both house ami garden plants. The applioation of fir oil is fatal to this insect. A pint of oil is mixed with five gallons of water and sprayed upon the plant. The little flies which are often seen hover ing around pot plants are hatched from white worms in the soil. Lime water will kill these worms and thus prevent further trouble front flies. To prepare it lake two tablespoonfuls of unslacked lime and three quarts of boiling water ; when settled pour off the clear liquid, and when cold thoroughly moisten the soil. Yon can rid your plants of lice by fumigating them with tobacco or by showering with tobacco tea. For the tea use a tablcspoonfnl of tobacco to a quart of water; steep and cool; spray the plant. Pelargoniums are very apt to get lousy. Aphis.green fly.caterpillar.slugs and rose bugs are all enemies of the rose. The rose bug i easily exterminated, owing to its sensitiveness to heat. Water warmed to the temperature of 122 degrees will kill this annoying pest without in the least injuring tho foliage of the roses. For mildew dust with sulphur, also dig a little Boot into the soil. The loss of old wood in rose pruning rids the plant of its fun gus and insect enemies by destroying many of their spores and egga. Frost, I think, should be considered an enemy of plants as well as unclean foliage, for plants will not thrive when their leaves, which are their lungs.are eoverod with dust. San Franoisco Chronicle. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES, See that the yards are kept dry and well littered with straw or roughage, if you wish clean, healthful stock and a good crop of manure. Tests of separators at the Pennsyl vania Station resulted in favor of tur bine machines for small establishment? and belt machines for largo plants. When the pigs come in eold weath er, put a hot rock in a barrel of hay and keep the pigs in it, except while they are nursing; which should be a; often as onoe an hour. The best of roses must not be ex pected in light, sandy soil. They de light in heavy clay soil and rich feed. If your soil ia sandy, trv and streDcth- en your rose beds with clay. When the mui is knee-deer. or half that, the eows are better in the stable than roaming over the fields picking up a iew moutns-iuil oi frozen fodder that may have escaped their search last fall. Feed the hens a liberal uantitv of chapped lean beef, or liver, or other fresh meat. This is needed to supply the nutriment by eating insects in the summer, but which is wanting in the winter. Though winter may be "half over February first" do not cut down the grain ration ; it's a long pull before spring. The cuccessful feeder or dairyman wants bis hold to go on to grass in good shape. lfyoudonot fear frost, there are some of the river varieties of pelear- gouiums that are wonderfully beauti ful in the spring and early summer months, iiutwhero they have to be watohed and covered too freequeutlv in the frosty season it is not worth while to plant them. There is but little ohoice in the time of transplanting gooseberry, currant and blackberry bushes aud rhubarb plants, it it is (lone after the leaves have fallen in the fall and before) they come out in the spring. Would rather transplant them iu the spring after the leaves have etarted tbau iu the fall be fore the leaves are off. It is said that tho value of the man me of each hen can be put at twenty five cents auel market gardeners and florists will take all you have. Tbo manure should fall upon a covering of land plaster. The droppings, when eoraped off, are a mixture of manure and plaster. The latter is an absorbent and takes up the ammonia, aud retains the fertilizing properties. Chestnut trees can be raised from the nuts. They may be planted in tho fall as soon as ripe, or kept till the following spring and planted then. If held till spring they should be kept iu a cool, moist place, stored in sand, for instance, or they will become dry and bard. We know of some that bore a few nuts the seventh year from planting and increased in tho amount of their yield each year. Poultry intended for the table should be put in a coop by themselves for about two weeks, feeding them princi pally on old wheat with plenty of water. Then when they are fat select the best, kill and dress them and hang up by the legs for a day so that they will drain thoroughly; see that they are kept in a ooul place.

A great many cooks make a failure of baking, simply because they do not understand the management of the oven, and seem to be unable to grasp the few simple facts necessary to its successful handling. Most eooks fire np tho range and tlx the proper point at the degree when the outside of the oven door will hiss sharply if touched with the wet finger. This is a degree of heat unsuited to almost all delicate articles. It scorches and scars them over ; things that should rise are held in by the crust that forms too quickly. and daintiness with snob management is out of the question. Cakes are orusted over and either become soggy or burst out at the top of the dish and run over like volcanoes. This spoils the shape and symmetry and is unworthy oi a culinary artist. - As a matter of fact, the number of minutes an article should bake is but a very small part of the knowledge re quired for successful cookery. Tea minutes in some ovens is equal to twenty in others, and forty may make the article as dry as a chip. Ihe old fuBhionod brick oven bad points of grace, perhaps because bakers knew how to manage it It has been suggested that the modern oven should be provided with a thermometer and that cook-books should have degrees of heat aa well as the number of minutes requirod for baking. Under ordinary circum stances the oven is of proper tempera ture for plain cake when it will brown a sheet of white letter-paper without setting it on fire. Bread ought to be baked in an over as hot as possible without burning, ana tho heat should be maintained steadily until done. Cakes may have the heat slightly re duced by putting a little can of hot water into the oven. This lowers the temperature and should be removed if the fire becomes at all slack. Prac tice, watchfuluess and experimenting are the only ways to successful bak ing, and will be so until our range ovens are provided with thermometers, and until our oooks learn how to use them.

Salad Some string beans and boiled cabbage left from yesterday's dinner, and some beets pickled last fall, coarsely chopped ; a tablcspoonful or more piled on small lettuce leaves on eaob of the necessary number of individual plates and a thin mayonnaise dressing over all. The lettuce can be raised in a roomy window-box in a sunny window, where it looks very pretty growing. A few leaves may be out at a time as needed, the roots left to send up more leaves. French Beans Soak a pint of navy beans over night; put on to boil iu one quart of fresh water ; at the end of half an hour add one teaspoonful, or less, salt and boil again gently and without breaking for another half or three-fourths of an hour ; meanwhile, cook a very small sliced onion in a cupful of tomato juioe; strain or not, as you choose ; about this time the beans are done ; thicken this with flour and butter ; put in half the beans, well drained ; reheat and serve.
