Life Saved by Swamp-Root. Fkt Great Dlarovrrr That Cures Kid ney and Bladder Trouble*. Statistics prove that more people are brought to the grave by diseases of the kidneys and bladder than by any other disease. For many years medical science has been trying to discover some remedy that would positively overcome these dangerous troubles. But not until recently was the discov ery made. Doctor Kilmer, the eminent physician and scientist, after years of study and research, and after test on test that never varied in the grand re sult, announced the discovery of Swamp- Root, which has proven itself a most wonderful cure for all diseases of the kidneys and bladder. While Swamp-Root has proven such a remarkable successin curing kidney and bladder diseases, it has also proved equally invaluable in the cure of blood diseases, rheumatism, liver and stomach troubles and in the regulation and cure ©f all uric acid troubles. Swamp-Root has been tested in so many ways, in hospital work, in private practice, among the helpless too poor to purchase relief, end has proved so suc cessful in every case, that a special ar rangement has been made by which all readers of this paper, who have not al ready tried it, may have a sample bottle sent absolutely free by mail. Also a book telling more about Swamp-Root and containing some of the thousands upon thousands of test imonial letters re ceived from men and women who owe their good health, in fact, their very lives, to the wonderful curative prop erties of Swamp-Root. Be sure and men tion this paper when'sending your ad dress to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghainton, N. Y. This great modern discovery is for tale at most drug-stores in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes.

There is more Catarrh in this section ol the country than all other diseases put to gether, and until the last few years wai supposed to be incurable.

The Farnirm' StriiKule Airnln«t Poul try I'i'MtN and InjurioiiN GerniH Known \«» Knil. In all lines of live stock husbandry eleanlir ess is the one great demand. The war against dirt and hence against bacteria and vermin is a war that will know no end. Let no man suppose that he can cleanse his house and pens and trust thein to keep clean. The bat tle must be fought over and over again end the successful poultry man is tfe determined lighter. The first campaign must be made against lice and mites. Whitewashing the pens is supposed to be a great remedy, and without doftbt It is a good one, but it is possible for the pens to be kept clear of lice with out the use of lime. We realize the fact that whitewashing lias its disad vantages. Not only does the pen soon get to looking very dirty inside, on ac count of all dirt showing on the white background, but very often the pens become a nuisance in that one cannot step inside them without having the marks remain on his clothes. There are washes that may be used and be quite effective as lime. The man that has a sprayer can use it easily in his chicken house and thoroughly wet ail exposed surfaces All cracks should b« obliterated, and this is n.ot a hard thing to do if the poultry raiser has a prop erly built house. But whether linte oi something else be used the work must be carefully followed up. It is even best to repeat the labor frequently, even if there be no signs of the little" monsters. Their very minuteness is a tremendous advantage given them by nature, and an advantage that lays upon us the necessity of eternal war fare.—Farmers' Review. AMONG THE POULTRY. Provide the sitting hens with dark nests. Table scraps make a good poultry food now. The Pekin are the handsomest breed of ducks. Goose eggs require one month foi hatching. Mix the corn m®al with milk for the 'ittle chickens. Boiled peas and beans, fed warm, are excellent egg foods. Geese and ducks should not be picked while laying regularly. In selecting the sitters be careful to secure those th:»t are gentle. Small eggs are likely to come from too much fatness of the hens. The best hatching eggs are ihose laid in the spring by the mature hens. One of the easiest ways of keeping a poultry yard clean is to give it a fre quent dressing with sand. It costs about a cc*ita week up to ten weeks old to feed a chick. Then it should weight two pounds.—St. Louif ltepublic. Ilnck>Fnrrowinjg Pay*. In plowing clay lands nearly all the advantages of under-draining can be obtained by back-furrowing into nar row beds, and by leaving a strip two or three feet wide between the beds unplowed. Jt practically does away with the trouble of gullying by heavy rains, as there are two channels instead of one to carry oil the water. No pei* ceptible difference in growth for yield or crop can be seen in the dead furrows after being putin with modern im proved implements, and there is a sav ing of four furrows in plowing each land or bed —two in the middle of the bed and two at the dead furrow. The great advantage of back-furrowing over level culture when plowing is done in the full is that very often crops can be sown several weeks earlier, making a fine crop and a good catch of grass, when later sowing would fail. —Prairie Farmer. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, APRIL 27, 1899 NO LONGER ISOLATED. Wire-Fence Telephone Sjwleni Pol In Operation l»y !'ro«reimive Ui'Miern Hitneli men. The stockmen of Southwestern Kan sas and northwestern Texas and Okla homa are keeping jiace with modern improvements and ore no longer to be isolated from the rest of the world. A few months ago the ranchmen of Seward county, Kan., met to propose a plan of connecting their ranches by telephone facilities, utilizing the barb wire fences instead of setting poles and stringing wires. It had been demon strated that a fence wire worked per fectly for a telephone connection. The scheme was favored by the stockmen, and a local company was formed, with headquarters at Liberal, that being the nearest telegraph point. Lines have since been constructed and are in operation, extending from Liberal over the whole of Seward, Stev ens and Morton counties, Kan., and have reached out into Beaver county, 0. T., and Hansford county, Tex. Many of the ranches in this ideal grazing country are situated miles from rail road and telegraph facilities. Some of the owners are compelled to travel 50 milcu to reach shipping points. Thus will be quickly seen the great ad vantage to be derived from this enter prising move. Jt not only affords them an opportunity to transact business among themselves, but they have ar ranged to get market quotations daily from the telegraph station. This in formation is invaluable to the cattle kings. In addition to the lines now in opera tion further extensions are to be made. The success of the wire-fence tele phone first established between Liberal and Brown ranch on Sharp creek, a dis tance of ten miles, demonstrated the value of the irea, and another line will be started to Beaver, O. T., and one to Hardestv, Tex. These extensions will require but lit tle outlay of money, nothing but the labor required where fences can bo used. When this cannot be done Ihe surveys follow the streams where the timber is used for poles. This energetic move lias awakened a lively interest at the markets. Wichita, which has be come a large stock market in recent years by reason of its packing' indus tries, is making an effort to have a branch of the line reach that place. This would put the ranchmen in talk ing distance with commission firms, to whom they sell stock. The plan is one of untold advantage to stock owners, and will be pushed | until the complete benefits have been j derived. HOG-SCALDING SWING.

During the warmer season, when al lowed to forage for themselves, each fowl gathers several ounces of meat daily. When the supply of grasshop pers, bugs, flies and worms fails, it may be furnished from the table, the scrap pot or the market. Green food may be furnished in cabbage, vegetables, ap ples or cut clover. A warm breakfast should be given on cold days and there should be no lack in the supply of drink. A meat diet with grain and vegetables is essential to the well being of fowls during the cold weather, when worms, and insects are not to be found "by the birds, but in summer the fowls can secure such foods for themselves.- American Gardening. llo*v to llrenk n Siller.
