" A few years ago I suffered tho entlro
loss of my hair from the effocts of totter.
I hoped that aftot a time nature would
repair tho loss, but I waltod in vain.
Many remedies wero suggested, none,
however, with such proof of merit as
Ayer's Hair Vigor, and I began to use it.
The result was all I could havo desired.
A growth of hair soon came out all over
my head, and grew to bo as soft and
heavy as I over had, and of a natural
color, and firmly set."-J. H. Pratt,

Farm and Oaraem Notes.
Gecso may be picked once in six
weeks.
Ills early potatoes as soon as thoy aro
ripe, is a good rule.
Tlio farmer who raises crops and feeds
them, has double profits.
Unreached ashes are tho host fcitilizci
known or tho vineyard.-
Standing In hot fermenting manure is
very injurions to a horse's feet.
Success depends more upon good
manacemcnt than upon tlio breed.
Who ever heard of a farmer that lost
money on a lot of good draft colts?
At sheep comes up oycry six months
and pays its hills; It does not dio In
debt.
One well directed stroke of tho hoc at
a weed just going to seed will save many
strokes next year.
A few iron nails, or a piece of rusty
iron kept in tho drinking water makes a
good tonic for tho fowls.
Tho feet of sheep should bo cleaned
out occasionally and inspected to discover
if foot rot is beginning.
Eggs should ho served, abundantly on
the farmer's table, and In such.yariely as
not to make them tiresome. .
Thero Bhould be a snpply of red peppers
kept durlns the winter to be fed to the
poultry with their regular food.
Do not expect your horse to bo equally
good at everything. The noire, like tlio
man, must bo adapted to his work.
To cure a cat of catching chickens, cut
off her tall just back of her cars, and then
top-dress her with two feet of earth.
Pastures should not ho loo close, if
there is a rainy spell, apply any good
fertilizer; Include plaster and ashes In the
list.
Jfost fruit trees bear fruit on short
spurs of last year's growth. This fact
should ho kept in mind while pruning,
Some good fruit glowers think best to
trim but little.
A Safe Investment.

you can buy from our adyerliscd druggist a

and can always be depouncd upon. Trial

Saving the Bulky Crop;.
After wheat has been thrashed the straw-
Is stacked In tlio barnyard and the stock
turned In to eat a portion while Uampllnc
a larger proportion In the mud.. ,Tho hay
Is carefully stored in the barn loft, while
tho cornstalks remain In the shocks .ind aro
eft In the fields to topplo over and becomo
'wasted. Eyery pound of hay sayed Is a
pound gained, and with moro care of tlio
straw and stalks the hay will winter a largo
number of calllo. Tho straw is considered
of but little value, yet the farm can bo Ira
poveiished by selling off the straw. Of
inorganic matter 1000 pounds of lime, but
little over two pounds of potash, and not
as much as a pound of phosphoric acid,
though containing largely of starch and
nitrogen. The straw contains In Its coni'
position nearly three times as much llmo
as the- grain, and three times as much
phosphoric acid. These proportions are
seemingly small, hut they amount to a
larne quantity where hundreds of tons of
straw aro grown. Ovci 50 pounds of ash
exist in 1000 pounds of Haw, which is
moro than double the amount of ash in tlio
grain, and In feeding valiio tho wheat Is
well worth being cared for, as four tons of
straw aro equal to ono ton of the best
hay.
Clean Culture.
j garuen without a weed Is almost as
rare as mind without an Impure thought,
and when foun'd It may bo considered as
lho gardeners' paradise. No person of
closo observation can lido through an
agricultural section in August without
coming lo the conclusion that tho farmers,
as rule, let tho weeds outgeneral them,
Tho average farmer keeps the weeds tlorvn
until July, then ho thinks Ills crops wil'
care for theinsolycs, so he ceases to culti
vate, and thus permits tho weeds to come
up In such numbers as to not only injure
the crop of tho present year but to ripen
millions of seeds to Injure the crop of tho
following year. This Is poor policy; tho
farmer who fully understands his business
will keep up the war with tho wpeds until
cold westher, and will thus In a few years
so clear his land of weed seeds that tho
labor of cultivation will ho reduced moro
than one-half, and the crops In the absence
of weeds will bo much lamer. If thn
farmer would be I.appy he must keep tho
weeds down, not only in his mind but also
among his growing crops, on the borders of
his fields, around tho farm buildings and
waste places of the farm, and thus prevent
any seeds from rlpcninc.
Okra Soup.
Take two pounds of. lean beef, cut Into
small pieces, add a quarter peck of
tomatoes, skinned, with tho seed and heart
squeezed out, ana ono small onion, cut up.
Let these all stew in a littlo butter, stir
ring it occasionally, and then put In the
okra, cut In slices. Stir It together for
about ten minutes. Next pour it oyer
about four quarts of boiling water; season
lastc, adding a slice of green pepperortored.
Let all boil down slowly, stirring frequently
and mashing the okra. Just before serv
ing add a piece of butter the size of an
egg, and be sure that It Is smoothly
blended In the soup before turnlnc the
lalter out. Okra soup Is never to bo made
In an Iron pot. Tho tin jacketed earthen
crocks that come for prewrving and for
stewiug meats are the rbjut things to make
1 It In.
