Mrs. Beard’s Letter
Eddy, Texas.— “I will write you a
few words, thinking it will do some
one else good. Two doctors said I
would have to be operated on because
for nearly twelve months I suffered
from a weakness from which I could
get no relief. I was restless and
nervous and was not able to walk
across the house, They said it was

could not get any help from doctors
I thought I would give that a trial.
I began with the liquid and it helped
me some, then you advised me to take
the tablet form and Ibegan to improve
rapidly. I have gained in weight from
106 to 170 pounds. I recommend it

Rodent Is Robber and Pilfer-

One of the pests with which the av-
erage farmer has to contend is the rat,
He is by nature a robber and a pil
ferer, living on the products of the
farm, and giving no return. The
United States government says that
this boarder who pays no board de-
stroys more than $£200,000,000 worth
of crops every year. In addition to
this money loss he Is known as an
active agent in the spreading of disease,
This loss and the danger of spreading
disease to stock and members of the

Manure Shed With
Carrier Is Favored
Spreading Direct From Sta-
bles Is Best Plan.
It is generally conceded that gpread-
Ing direct from the stable secures the
greatest returns from manure, Manure
as ordinarily handled Is said to lose
about one-half of its value. In many
sections, however, every-day handling
Is Impossible and in these cases proper
handling ean do much to conserve the
fertility as well as to keep things
shipshape about the barn. The great
est sources of loss In the handling of
manure are fallure to absorb liquids
by bedding. the leaching of soluble
plant food from the heap and the
burning up of organic matter through
heating. These losses ean be lessened
by the free use of bedding to absorb
stable liquids and the bullding of a
commact manure heap which will
or prevent heating and leach
ing. A suitable clay or concrete hasin
to retain such liquids as do leak
through still further reduces the loss
A roof is not necessary unless It Is
desired protect the carrier track.
A cow produces about twelve tons of
manure yearly. This will require ap
proximately 500-600 cuble feet for
storage. As much of the manure will

sand and four parts crushed stone or

Vaccination Is compulsory In the

urging the local boards of health to
Insist on vaccination and to prosecute
