Horns on Ent
Some time ago Farming stated that
horns on a steer meant a reduction of
B0 cents per hundred weight in the price
in market. A correspondent assumes
to correct tliis statement «Dd says:
"The simple presence or absence of
horiiK on a prime steor docs not affect
his value materially, nor Is any atten
tion paid to this point by buyers of fat
cattle. If one were buying feeding cat
tle to finish, dehorned ones are more
desirable than horned cattle, especially
when they are tq run loose In large
droves that is. not stall fed." Both
wrong, according to our experience.
We have seen the presence of horns on
a carload of fat steers knock consider
able off their value, but not 50 cents
per hundredweight. The fact is that
killers who have to ship their stock
away from the yards wont hornless cat
tle, and those who kill right there find
fewer bruises among snob cattle. The
hornless steer has a very decided ad
vantage for both feeders and slaughter
ers. Buyers pay a good deal of atten
tion to this point here at Pittsburg—
National Stockman.
Farmers' firnln Elevator.
Six years ago a few farmers at Ila
• von, Kan., built a small grain elevator.
I 11 was predicted by the "talent" that
the undertaking would not survive six
months. Its membership baa Increased
000 per cent, and It Is claimed that it
has saved the fanners in that vicinity
; six times the value of all the elevators
in town. It is now more prosperous
than ever, having Just bought the lar
gest and best elevator In town. It will
tax the capacity of the two elevators
to do the ever Increasing fanners' grain
business. The farmers in any locality
could do as well If they would work
together and try.—Kansas Farmer.

The law as applied to renovated but

j Ull ultary conditions within and without
the factories, including proper drain

unwholesome or detrimental to health l
shall exist in the finished product when
It leaves the factory.
At the present time many creamery

cerned, ndvantageously examine and
adopt methods practiced in some of the
.Nest renovating plants.
, Jjut tin marked Improvement In the
quality of renovated huttoi lu only
partially due to the improved condl
lions of recent years. The most im

in securing the paeklng stock while It

luck of I'ufVlnK Stork.
The markets, both here and abroad,
seem to take readily at remunerative
pricps all the letter grades of renovat
ed butter that can be produced. and the
quantity Is only limited by the amount
of parking stock the country provides.
The business, as far as the quantity Is
concerned, lias undoubtedly reached Its
limit, not from lack of profit In manu
facturing or of demand for the finished
product, but from lack of material
from which to make the goods.
The amount of packing stock to be
produced each year will gradually de
cline, prlnc >ally because it will be di
verted into more profitable channels by

Kich Soil For Tobncco.
Tobacco is a crop which usually
pays well for a large outlay in ferti
lizers, other conditions being favora
ble. Farmers not familiar with the
methods practiced in the Connecticut
valley are greatly surprised when told
that It is the custom with many of the
best farmers In that to apply
■ every year to the same field from sst>
to $75 wo, ch of fertilizer per acre.
These growers expect and annually
harvest In the neighborhood of a ton
of barn cured tobacco to the acre.
Furthermore, the quality of the leaf
produced !i better now than it was
twenty-five years ago, wheu much less
intensive methods of culture and fer
tilization were used. The writers well
understand that the export and plug
wrapper types of tobacco produced in
Virginia are vastly different from the
cigar wrapper and binder types pro
duced in the Connecticut valley. They
believe, however, that the efficiency
of rich land Is the same for both sec
tions.— MeXess and Matthewson.
Low Down Wbkou.
The low down wagon is gaining In
popularity. The one I obtained seven
years ago was the first one introduced
in my neighborhood, and now there
are several. The wheels of mine are
twenty-four inches high, with six Inch
tires. The short turning feature of the
low down Is something to be com
mended. In hauling and turning
among the stumps of new ground and
in the narrow lanes, small feed or barn
yards, etc., this feature Is very desir
able. Michigan Farmer.

bacco to the value of $2,281, iO3 w*as
exported from the Philippine Islands.
Spain was the largest taker of leaf to
bacco, Hongkong of cigars and ciga
rettes.
A great problem with western grain
farmers Is tj get sacks for this year's
crop. This has always been difficult.
This year $2,000,000 worth of the goods
went up hi smoke In Ban Francisco,
remarks an exchange.
Midsummer jobs include digging
ditches, laying tile and cleaning out
and deepening wells wheu necessary.
For many purposes fire killed timber
should be preferred to green timber
because It is so well seasoned, accord
ing to the national forest service. It is
more desirable than green timber and
also lighter, which lessens the cost of
truusi»ortation.
That the hay crop of the United
States may prove disappointing is the
opinion of Orange Judd Farmer, based
upon the view that weather condi
tions throughout the country have not
been at all conducive to a la rife yield
of hay of good quality.
The man who Invented the "vlneless
potato," which guileless people were
ttrtceU lu hi row i u iu their cellnrs
by means of a secret roiupouml (to be
obtained at $4.50 a package), has met
with discouragement. According to
press reports, the postal authorities
have issued a fraud order denying tho
vlneless business the use of the mails
and chemists of the department of ag
riculture are credited with
calling the marvelous compound "noth
ing but a low grade of sulphate of
potash."

Side.
The London Tribune relates an an
ecdote illustrating tin? lighter side of
Nn. Ole >n's character. It was told by
:ui oi l lady who knew the daughters
of S r Hudson Lowe. The Misses
Lnvo were young girls at the time of
XapolonY Uiprls Jiiment at St. Hele
na and were sometimes admitted to
his presence, when 1k? would chat
pleasantly with them. On one or two
occasions when In a specially good
humor lie drew his sword and, gal
l.intlv presenting it to one of the girls,
said: "Now, young lady, Is your
chance. You have t<> kill tlx Corsfcan
ogre!" lie would then throw him
pelf Into p isltlon and defend himself
with his walking stick. Whether from
nervousness or sheer inalmlresse, no
hit was ever made, and the great man
would then smile and say coude-
Kcendin !y. "Well, ladles, you can now
boast th it you have fenced with the
great Napoleon."
1 itu Cnrlou* Tnlm.
In 187i> u miserly old lady was found
dead in a fence coruyi a few
south of Blaise, France. When found
she was lying fiat on her back, with
one arm around her head grasping a
sunboimet. Since that time not a
spear W grass has grown on tho spot
where her body lay. The outlines of
the form, limbs, etc., are as plain as
though they had been made by o per
son lying down in snow or In plastic
clay.
Just back of the great lirltish mu
seum, Loudon, there Is a little plotrof
ground known the world over as "tit
field of the forty footsteps." The .old
legend concerning the place is to tho
effect that two brothers, in the time of
the Dtike of Monmouth's relxdlion,
took different sides and that they en
gaged In a deadly duel on this little
plot of ground. They stood off twenty
steps from a certain line and at the
word met at that line and killed each
other with knives. The forty Impres
sions made by their feet whllo ad
vanelng were ever afterward bare of
grass and were still pointed out 126
years ago at the time when the lot
was covered by a large stone building.

A Woman's Back
Tin* many ai-bos and pains caused by
irr;tkn<'S.« - aii'.i fallinit. or«dl!«Ii>I*W« > -
mriit. of tho pelvic organs. Other syn»i>-
toms of li'malo weakness firo frequent
lieadachc, dlzzines*. Imaginary specks or
dark spots floating before the eyes, gnaw
ing sensation in stomach, dragging or
hearing down in lower abdominal or pelvic
region, disagreeable drains from pelvic
. >rgans, faint spells with general weakness.
If any considerable number of the above
symptoms are present there is no remedy
that will give quicker relief or a more per
manent cure than Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. It has a record of over forty
years of cures. It is the most jiotent
invigorating tonic and strengthening ner
vine known to medical science. It Is made
of the glyceric extracts of native medici
nal roots found in our forests and con
tains not a drop of alcohol or harmful, or
habit-forming drugs. Its Ingredients are
all printed on the bottle-wrapper aud at
tested under oath as correct.
Every ingredient entering into "Fa
vorite Prescription " has the written en
dorsement of the most eminent medical
writers of all the several schools of prac
tice—more valuable than any amount of
non-professional testimonials—though the
latt'-r are not lacking, having l>een con
tributed voluntarily by grateful patients
in numbers to exceed the endorsements
given to any other medicine extant for
the cure of woman's ills.
You cannot afford to accept any medicine
of unknown composition as a subatltute
for this well remedy OF KNOWS
COM POSITION, even though the dealer may
make a little more profit thereby. Four
interest in regaining health i» paramount
to any selfish interest of his and it is an
insult to your intelligence for him to try
to palm off upon you a>ubstitute. You
know what you want and it is his busi
ness to supply the article called for.
I)r. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the
original "Little Liver Pills" first put up
by old Dr. Pierce over forty years ago,
much imitated but never equaled. Little
sugar-coated granules—easy to take as
candy.
