EIGHT POUNDS! Eight pounds of love and laughter, of ■mile* and sunshine or —? Many a mother can fill up the blank out of her experience Iren, whose coming K brought no glad ness to the home. Women who have used Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip tion as a pre-natal preparation know that it makes all the difference be tween happy, healthy mother hood, and a mother hood of murmur ing and misery. And they know also, that happy, healthy mother* have happy, healthy children. "Favor ite Prescription " strengthens the whole body for the strain of mother hood. It practic ally does away with the pains of child birth, gives the mother abundant vitality and en ables hfr to nurse and nourish a tiealthy child. The "Favorite Prescription" contains no alcohol, neither opium, cocaine, chloral tior any other narcotic. "I am mother r f si* children," writes Mrs. C. A. Briggn, of Millwood, Doujflas Co., Oregon, "and c-'.iray* took three or four bottles of Fa, vorite Prescription' before confinement and never sufltre<£ any to speak of; had no after pains • my babies were large—they all weighed more than eight pounds, and I am not a large woman ; weigh a boot xrj pound*. I have had some stomach trouble, but a few doses of 'Golden Medical Discovery' would set me all right. I am hardlvever without your medicines. They are ail thennedicine one needs, if taken in time, to keep one in perfect health. -I feel that I owe my little boy's life to Dr. Piercc'i Golden Medical Discovery, as he had convulsion*, and everything he ate wonM bring them cn. I commenced to give him the 'Golden Medical Discovery • in ten drop doses three times a day. Now he is just as healthy a child as can be fornd and he grows like a weed."

Large Straw Sun Tint* the I.atest De vice Fop Hor*c»T Comfort. The idea of placing a wide brimmed Itraw hat over tlic horse's head to pre rc-nt sunstroke is said to have origiuat td in New York, and it is claimed that straw hats are much better protectors HS9BSB* STOAW HATH, than any of tho awning arrangements. From tliis primitive start a number of novelties have been evolved and put on the market. Coarse straw braid hats are largely manufactured in a variety of styles, some of which are here shown. This headgear gives a decided appearance of comfort on horsc-s under the scorching summer sun. THE BEET HARVEST. perience In Convenient Method* of Storiiis? Them. We have tried different methods of storing beets. 111 a cellar or basement they keep well the first part of the sea son, and if frostproof this is a good way to keep the roots for early winter feeding, but by far the most satisfac tory method we have tried and the one we now always follow is pitting or burying In a trench. We keep the roots iu this manner fresh until May or long after t'ley a; • 110 longer needed by the stock, which can get succulent feed from the pastures. First we dig out trenches or pits. We take the p! ■ v and'throw up three or four furrows, shovel the loose earth and plow up the bottom again. We shovel out this second layer of loose earth, and the trench is ready for the roots. We harvest by pulling the roots and throwing them into the wagon, which can be driven along the row. Care should be taken In handling the roots not to break or bruise more than Is necessary. We do not top until the beets are hauled to the pit and ready for piling in. We top by hand, twisting off rather than cutting with a knife, as a knife causes the roots to bleed. The roots are carefully pack 1 opportunity should alway-5 be given them to dry laying in the pit instead of throwing. Round up well. Begin filling in at one end of the pit and cover each day's harvest at night. While the roots should be dry on the surface, they should not be dried otherwise. We have buried with and without straw and prefer using straw. There was 110 noticeable difference In the quality of the beets when taken out so far as keeping was concerned, but there was a difference In their cleanliness for handling. Without straw the earth sifted through the whole pile and made a disagreeable Job of handling In win ter and spring. To provide for ventilation and to pre vent heating a twisted wisp of straw is left sticking up through the earth covering. At first we put on only enough covering to turn the rain and prevent frosting from any chance early cold snap. This is increased as the cold weather advances. We run our plls north and south, as we can then beglu taking the roots from the south end and not expose the remaining roots to the frost We have our pits open at all times through the winter, but by using plenty of manure to cover the opening we nev er lose anything by freezing. Of course the pit should be located on high and dry ground, It being well to let It slope In all directions from the pit. We do not consider It much more trouble to get our beets from the pit than from the bin In the cellar, and they certainly keep much better, writes a Kansas cor respondent to Country Gentleman. Toninto riaot* For Winter Forcing. The time required for growing ton a to plants for winter forcing ranges from two to two and one-half months from sowing the seed until the plants are fit for transplanting; hence If It Is desired (0 have fruit by the middle of December or the beginning of January It Is necessary to sow the seed early in August. These will then be ready to transplant In the house by the middle of October, and first fruiting will begin by Christmas time. The plants will continue to bear for longer or shorter periods, depending largely upon the method of training and feeding, though usually profitable picking will continue for from two to two and one-half mouths; hence In order to secure a sec ond crop in time to obtain fair prices seed should again be planted In No vember to begin fruiting in April. A person who malcA a business of grow ing plants for early field crops could secure at least one house crop before the latter part of February, when It is necessary to plant his seed.
