IN SUCH PAIN
WOMAN CRIED
Suffered Everything Until Re-

E. Pinkham’s Vegeta-
ble Compound.
Florence, So. Dakota. —*‘I used to be
down pains and
backache, and had
headache a good
deal of the time and
very little appetite.
The pains were so
bad that I used to
sit right down on the
floor and cry, be-
“ cause it hurt me so
and I could not do
any work at those
times. An old wo-
man advised me to try Lydia E. Pink-
ham’s Vegetable Compound and I got a
bottle. I felt better the next month so
I took three more bottles of it and got
well so I could work all the time. 1
hope every woman who suffers like I did
will try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound.’’ — Mrs. P. W. LANSENG,

DEMAND FOR MELONS
EASTERN CITIES.
Culture of Montreal Variety Confined
Almost Exclusively to Small
Group of Growers in Can-
ada-—8kill Required.
WILLIAM STUART.)
Some time ago the writer in
article on cultural studies of
Montreal market muskmelon, showed
that the commercial culture of the
famous Montreal melon is confined
almost wholly to a small group of
growers near Montreal, Canada. It
was also pointed out that
large portion of these melons were
marketed in Boston,
delphia and other large eastern cities
at extremely remunerative prices,
practically no effort was being made
by American gardeners to meet this
demand. More recent observations
have confirmed these statesments,
and in addition, have shown that not-
withstanding the fact that the Mon-
treal growers have for the past few
years received from ten to eighteen
dollars a dozen wholesale for their
melons, they have not as vet suc
ceeded In supplying the demand. The

| Much Will Go to Waste at’ Harvest
Time Unless Steps Are Taken to
Get Them Into Shape,
| (By W. F, PURDUE.)
Unless steps are taken at harvest
time to save the straw stacks, much
{of the straw will go to waste in one
way or another,
This is practically true where the
stacks are poorly constructed, as they
{ usually are with our modern wire
| etackers if there are no hands on the
| stack at the time of the threshing.
The only way a well shaped, water-
proof stack can be secured is to have
| one or two good hands on the stack as
the grain is being threshed. Then,
after the machine leaves, the stack
| can be completed in a short time, as
the straw will save, with but little
| loss,
If it 18 not possible to have the
| hands on the stack while the straw is
being piled up it can be worked over
afterward This should be done be-
fore rain has fallen to settle the straw,
however, and a fairly job made
of it.
The newly stack should then
be fenced go that the stock cannot run
to it before the straw {8 well settled

It is much better to leave the manure
