SOLIDS IK MILS.
The fact that milk is liquid in form de
ceives many persons as to its nutritive
value, as well as regards tho chnracter of
food neoded to produco it. Farmers
know by experience that mangolds or
.-v. un-is, nuno onen promoting a
large flow of milk, either make it of poor
quality or rapidly reduce tho flosh of the
cow. This fact is explained by the
chemical analysis of milk, which shows
only eighty-five per cent, of water, while
the mangolds have ninety-one per cent.
Fodder corn when green has eighty per
cent, of water, but it contains even less
"proportion of nitrogenous matter thau
the mangolds. Unod milk is rich in two
important and valuablo elements. Its
carbon is in the form of fat, and is shown
in cream and butter. Its nitrogenous
matter shows when the milk is soured,
making curd and cheese. Unless both
theee elements aie furnished in the food,
the milk can only be good at the expense
of the cow. Button Cultivate.

The question, "Whvit is the moft

for fast-walking horses; if a farmer bj

claimed thut first-class ploughing cannot

Old bulls are the favc rites on which

A Self Borlny Well.
An artesian well, now partly completed

of 1400 yards, and by the time it is 11a

water for a great bathhouse connected
with a largo hotel; at present that which
is obtained has a temperature of 104 de
grees Fahrenheit, and it is expected that
1500 yards will raise tho tempeiuturo to
180 d egrees or 200 degrees. The most
curious feature about this well is the

Undo Tutum Fullilovo, of Po Boto
parish, I.a., hiu in his yard, nenr his
poultry bouso, a rather noTcl but effect
ual owl trap. It Is mado as follows:
An old scytho blade is procured, two
holes drilled about four Inehos from tho
butt, and tho blndo then ground very
slmrp. Tho blndo Is Uien securely spiked
or screwed to tho end of a good, stout
polo some twenty or more feet long, and
tho base of tho polo set securely in tho
ground. Tho blado should bo secured to
the pole so as to stand at an anglo of
about forty-five degrees.
When tho owl lights upon it to tako
observations (ns ho is almost sure to do),
ho slides grtuuliially down toward the top
of tho pole, the sharp blado cutting his
toes meanwhile. When tho pniu is felt
ho naturally becomes nlurmrd, nnd spreads
his wings to fly. In tho effort lie nuikes
to rise, a still deeper cutis inflicted upon
the tendons of his foet, and ho departs
en iter a nopeiess cnpplo or an entirely
disabled owl, whoso occupation as a
poultry thief is at an end.
The samo trap may often servo to dis
ablo hawks, as they, like owls usually
select some high perch from which to
tiiko ohecrvntions before making an at
tack. Farm aud Firttide.

Takes iooo people to buy
Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy,
at 50 cents a bottle, to make
up $500.
One failure to cure would
take the profit from 4000
sales.
Its makers profess to cure
" cold in the head," and even
chronic catarrh, and if they
fail they pay $500 for their
over-confidence,
Not :n newspaper words
but in hard cash Think of
what confidence it takes to
put that in the papers and
vican it.
Its makers believe in the
Remedy. Isn't it worth a
trial ? Isn't any trial prefer
able to catarrh?
After all, the mild agencies
are the best. Perhaps they
work more slowly, but they
work surely. Dr. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets are an active
agency but quiet and mild.
They're sugar-coated, easy to
take, never shock nor derange
the system and half their pow
er is in the mild way in which
their work is done. Small
est, cheapest, easiest to take.
One a dose. Twentyfive cents
a vial. Of all druggists.
