COMPRESSED AIR SERVICE. Suggestion for Securing Running Wst»r in the Farm House. A farmer of Milton, Ind., thinks that he has invented a novel and superior form of compressed air water service system. As water in wells is o.ften found within slight distance from the surface, from 12 to MO feet, he would dig the well of good size and immerse an air-tight reservoir directly in the water. This would till by mc.ely opening a valve, and the water he would force out by pumping air into the reservoir. The air pump could be located anywhere and con- AIR PUMP OUTLET PIPE Ej f\ I Z j| A 1.1 VALVE - = |! E • I = •! z > _ t! INLET VALVE z D'snrnm of Well and Tank. •ecUd by small pipe. Wind or gaso ne would work the pumps. He pre> en's a diagram of the idea. Doubtless this would work quite veil, remarks Breeders' Gazette. In >rdcr to have a continuous flow oi water there should lie two of these reservoirs, and if above them there was a separa'e : . serveir fcr com pressed air, all the better, since tht windmill would not always operate The main difficulties are two: it if costly to open a large well and most modern wells are drilled ones, and ai: Is not a real easy thing to pump with i windmill, since a slow motion is ery wasteful in operating an ait lump. As a matter of fact, a great Jeal cf thought and experiment has oeen expended on this and similai problems, and thus far little usf seems to have been made of the idea DRAGGING ROADS. Points Which Must Ee Rememberec to Do Gccd Work. The following points are to be born< n mind in dragging a road: Make a light drag, which is haulcc ver the road at an angle so that •< small amount of earth is pushed to th< center of the road. Drive the team at a walk. Ride on the drag; do not walk. Begin at one side of the road, re turning on the opposite side. Drag the road as soon after ever; tin as possible, but not when th< iud is in such a condition as to sticl i the drag. Do not drag a dry read. Drag whenever possible at all sen sons of the year. If u read is draggec Immediately before a cold spell it wii freeze in a smooth condition. The width of traveled way to bf maintained by the drag should b( from !£■ to 20 feet: first drag a littH more than the width of a single wliee track, then gradually increase until th< desired width is obtained. Always drag a little earth towarr 'he (112 ntcr of the road until it is ralsec ,'roni ten to twelve inches above the edge ' 112 the traveled way. Remember that constant attejnioi 5 necessary to maintain an earth r«.a --i its best condition.—Wisconsin Geo ogii.al and Natural History Survey. FARM NOTES. Nail a leather strap to the side o the wagon box to hold an ax and al ways keep one there. The best tools are the cheapest, th< best stock is the most profitable am the highest fertilization and cultiva tion will bring the largest crops. The meadows and pastures, as wel as the growing wheat, arc often bene fited by rolling well in the spring aft 'r the frost is out of the ground. Ey cleaning up the farm you will in crease its value, and when it i cleaned and cleared it will cultivate more easily and cheaply and give lai ger returns. When you have finished plowinj clean the dirt from your plow am jrease all the wearing parts with ax!' grease. Smear it on with a rag am be sure to leave no spots untouched Cure Indication. f'ure indigestion in poultry by feed Jng eicer. stuff and bulky food gen erai',.'-. This is easy to do in th< epring.

Stir the Soil and Kill the Weeds in Eetween the Rows. I "ive made it a somewhat firm and last rule not to plant corn un til th> t-oil is good and warm, writes a Mis. Uiri correspondent of Orange Judd Farmer. This gives Immediate and rapid germination, bringing t lie corn up at once, and in that way saves the injuries that often result from too earl> planting, by mice and insects working on the seed. It. is my judgment that the early planting has more to commend it to the corn grower than late planting, yet as staled above this is a matter wholly to be regulated by the individual op erator. I have secured my very best stands by getting the planter just deep enough to cover the corn well. If the ground is real dry, deeper planting is advisable, three or even four inches not being considered too deep. Now for the cultivation. There is a maxim in the, commercial world that well bought is half sold. So it may be said, if the corn grower does his duty to the corn plant before it ap pears above ground, his battle is hall won. I like to cultivate, so to speak, at least twice before the corn comes up. By so doing 1 accomplish some of the many purposes of cultivation. You kill the sprouted weed seeds, aerate the soil, hasten the warming up of ihe seidbed and increase .t,,ur chancos for s good stand. I hkt togo over the land twice and leave it in fine shape fo- the first go ing over v ith the six-sho\tl cultiva tor. Twice over with the. smoothing harrow wi'.t <io this very nicely. Now remove the large shovel next to the row and put on the long, narrow bull tongue and with a quiet, slow-walking team you can get right up to the little plants and give the little corn a reg ular hoeing. You can also go deep this time, without effecting root prun ing, a thing to be studiously avoided ever after. I like to cultivate four or five times, depending upon the season, and the rapidity of the growth of the plants. While I am an ardent and an un wavering advocate of shallow cultiva ticn, vet I know from my own experi ence that there are times when you must cultivate deep. When the sea son has been wet and you have been kept out of the field until the weeds are numerous and lusty, you must plow deep, for you will need dirt and much dirt to cover these weeds, and dceji plowing is the only way to get the dirt. Ordinarily, 1 practice shal- I'jV.' cultivation, for, I believe it to be better for the crop and 1 know it is much easier on the teams. Especially do I l'ke level cultivation the last time going over the field. Some of the very best yields I have ever had. I have goc- on the land im mediately after harvesting the corn and sowed to timothy with no other preparation if the seedbed than two harrowings with a smoothing harrow, securing a splendid stand of grass on an ideal bottom or surface. I merely speak of this so as to give the reader some idea as to how level I try to le::ve the land at the last cultivation. If you ridge your land andadiought follows, the ground is just right to dry out and injure the crop. Keep weeds down, for remember that they consume the soil mosture as well as plant food. They are no re specter of persons and they will have their share of these things though the corn plant languish and die. There is an idea held by some that the excrement of weeds is highly poison ous to the corn plant, and for this, i! for no other reason, they should not be allowed to grow. NEW ROAD DRAG. One Which Is Said to De Superior to Split Leg Drag. The Home and Farm gives a new plan for a road drag: This road drag is superior to any drag that I have ever seen. The front piece consists of a four by four oak s! rip. b, ten feet long, through which are driven ordi- Improved Road Drag. nary harrow teeth about three inches apart. This is attached to the rear piece, a, which is a two by six oak timber ten feet long faced with thret inches of one-quarter-inch metal on the bottom, e, which projects one inch. These pieces are kept apart by wood; n blocks, d, upon the bolts, 112, and by the top strips, c, each two by six. This makes a fine level ro.ul as it harrows it and scrapes it at. the saint lime. Lima Beans. T,iinu beans need a long season, liy this the pole Lima is meant. There are bush Limas which grow more quickly, but they are not productive, ii dots not need many niils of pole Limas to supply a family and the bi'ins are delicious. The yield which may be obtained by good treatment is surprising. They may be started early in a cold frame by planting on inverted sods, but this is not always a convenient way of doing. The cold frame is needed for other purposes and it is expensive to provide one lor tliis use alone. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JUNE 4, 1908. LANDLORD KNEW HIS CAPACITY. Would Need to Lay in Supplies for Student Guest. "Lawyer Hummel entertained us with his brilliant conversation on the Lusitania," said a tourist. "Hummel had one night In the imoking room an argument with a ter ribly scarred German about education. " 'There's nothing like our German itudents. You can't get away from that,' the German boasted, and his face, all slashed from corps duels, beamed with pride. " 'No, you're right,' said Hummel. 'I ance visited a German student In Hei delberg. As we conversed on dueling in the students' sitting room a waiter knocked, entered and said politely: The landlord of the Keg presents his compliments and wishes to know if you are thinking of stepping across this evening, sir?" What does he want to know that for?" the student inquired. Because, sir. if you don't," said the waiter, "it will scarcely be worth while to tap a fresh barrel to-day." ' " NO SKIN LEFT ON BODY.

There recently entered the offices of the civil service commission at Wash ington a dashing young darky of per haps 20 years of age, who announced to the official who received him that he desired to "get papers for an exam ination." "From what state are you?" was the question put. The negro drew himself up proudly. "I am from the first state of the union, sir," he replied. "New York?" "No, sir; Alabama." "But," protested the official, with a smile, "Alabama is not the first state in the union." "Alphabetically speaking, sir; alpha betically speaking," said the negro. Not Time's Slave. A traveler, finding that he had a couple of hours in Dublin, called a cab and told the driver to drive him around .'or two hours. At first all went well, but soon the driver began to whip up his horse so that they nar rowly escaped several collisions. "What's the matter?" demanded the passenger. "Why are you driving so recklessly? I'm in no hurry." 'Ah, g'wan wid yez," retorted the cabby. "D'ye think I'm goin' to put in the whole day drivin' you around for two hours? Gitap!" DR. TALKS OF FOOD Pres. of Board of Health. "What shall I eat?" is the daily ln qniry the physician is met with. Ido not hesitate to say that in my judg ment a large percentage of disease is caused by poorly selected and improp erly prepared food. My personal expe rience with the fully-cooked food, known as Grape-Nuts, enables me to speak freely of its merits. "Prom overwork, I suffered several years with malnutrition, palpitation of ♦lie heart and loss of sleep. Last sum mer I was led to experiment person ally with the new food, which I used in conjunction with good rich cow's milk. In a short time after I com menced its use, the disagreeable symp toms disappeared, my heart's action became steady and normal, the func tions of the stomach were properly carried out and I i'gain slcyt as sound ly and as well as in my youth. "I look upon Grape-Nuts as a per fect food, and no one can gainsay but that it has a most prominent place in a rational, scientific system of feed ing. Any one who uses this food will soon be convinced of the soundness of the principle upon which it is manu factured and may thereby know the facts as to its true worth."

Don't Poison Baby. prORTY TEARS AGO almost every mother thought her child must have ■ PAREGORIC or laudanum to make it sleep. These drugs will produce sleep, and A PEW DROPS TOO MANY will produce the SLEEP PROM WHICH THERE IS NO WAKENG. Many are the children who have been killed or whose health has hcen ruined for life by paregoric, laudanum and morphine, eacli of which is a narcotic product of opium. Druggists are prohibited from selling either of the narcotics named to children at all, or to anybody without labelling them "poison." The definition of "narcotic" is s "A medicine which relieves pain and produces sleep, but which in poisonou s doses produces stupor, coma, convul sions and death." The taste and smell of medicines containing opium are disguised, and sold under the names of " Drops," " Cordials," " Soothing Syrups," etc. You. should not permit any medicine to be given to your children without you or your physician know of what it is composed.
