"It gives me pleasure to testify to the

"One dav 1 hannened to read some testi.

bought a bottle of each, and after tnkine
them for a week 1 noticed a change for the

iweive Domes i was perfectly curea.
"I also cave the medicine to mv ehil

"I highly recommend Peruna and Man.

Miss Mildred Grey, 110 Weimar St., Ap

"It gives me pleasure to recommend
Peruna for catarrh of the stomach. I had
this disease for a number of years, and
could not enjoy a mouthful of food that I
ate. It was indeed a great relief when I
hit upon Peruna, and obtained decided re

High Prices in Klondike.
The Klondike region might make
an excellent summer resort for people
who are seeking an easy way to get
rid of their surplus wealth. Accord
ing to the Philadelphia News Bnreau,
ntt an article is sold up there for less
than 25 cents, as there is no money in
circulation of a lesser denomination.
The cost of coal is $15 to $20 a ton;
hay, $60 to $80 a ton; butter, 50 cents
a pound: flour, $6 a hundred pounds;
milk. 35 cents a auart. and beef. 25 to
BO cents a pound. The wages of me
chanics for a 10-hour day is $10; com
mon laborers, without board, $6;
clerks, $150 to $300 a month, while the
cost of a two-horse draft team is $25

Culling Out Old Hens.
Two years Is the orthodox ape when
hens should be culled out and sold
or killed, where they are kept chiefly
for egg production, and this should be
done as soon as they slacken laying
and before the molt comes on; other
wise fhey will lose weight and become
unsalable except at a reduced figure.
Stay on the Farm.
A farmer who sells out as old age
approaches and goes to town to live,
generally makes a mistake. So long
as a man is living on his own farm he
is respected in the community. He is
made to feel thnt he is one of the
substantial men and is welcome every
where, but when he moves to town he
is classed with the pinching, penu
rious sort, who haven't a dollar to
spend and are of no use to themselves
or the community. Men don't get
old like they used to; it isn't fashion
able any more. Farm Press.
How to Carry a Fowl.
It is frequently necessary to carry
a fowl from one place to another on
the farm, or among the different yards.
The most common way is to pick it
np by the legs and carry it with the
head hanging down. This is the eas
iest for the poultryman, but is no
lest for the poultryman, but is no
doubt, quite as uncomfortable for the
fowl as it would be for a human be
ing. The Farming Journal prints an item
upon this subject which is illustrated
by a cut showing the proper way to
hold the fowl. Ve cannot reproduce
the cut but it is easily explained by a
few words.
Simply take the fowl under the arm,
with the head facing backwards, the
arm around the body holding down the
wings and the hand grasping the legs
tightly above the feet. Held in this
way the fowl is grasped so firmly that
tt has no chance to struggle, and yet
is in a comfortable position. Try it
the next time that you have occasion
to carry a fowl from one yard to an
other. Concentration of Labor on Farms.
According to the manner in which
It may be employed, labor pays best
on the farm. When farmers are an
nually busy at work in the production
of crops the saving of one percent In
the cost of production amounts; to a
large sum and the annual loss to the
farmer from misapplied labor is much
greater than can be estimated. Not
only is too much labor applied in some
directions and very Bmall amounts
given elsewhere, but the times of do
ing so are not right, to say nothing
of the final results upon the crops.
Success or failure have resulted not
wholly from the large or the Bmall
amount of labor applied, but accord
ing to the skill and judgment in per
forming the work at the proper time
and in the right manner.
Fanners do not always take into
consideration the propriety of curtail
ing the area to be cultivated, by which
means they would be enabled to sup
ply more plant food to the limited
space and at the same time save a vast
amount of labor. It is not as economi
cal to grow thirty bushefs of wheat
on two acres as it is to produce twen
ty bushels on one acre, for, while in
one case the farmer s-ecures an extra
ten bushels, by reason of cultivating
more land for that purpose, yet he
has been compelled to perform twice
aa much work and to spread his ma
nure over double the area of sur
face. There should be no more land
put under cultivation than can be
properly fertilized for It Is much bet
ter to have one acre of strong vigor
ous plants than two acres of plants
Improperly provided, as It requires
just as much cultivation, seeding and
hauling for the Inferior crop as for
the better one. The Epltomlst.
Setting Fruit Trees.
Thorough preparation of the soil is
absolutely necessary; deep plowing
and careful cultivating being done to
get the land in a perfect state of tilth.
As the impetus given the tree at the,
start largely dete. mines Its future, no
pains should be spared to give it
all the advantages possible.
The holes for the trees should be at
least three feet square and two feet
deep, of equal diameter at the top and
bottom. The bottom should be level
and mounded rather than disked. The
depth is slightly more than where the
roots come. This permits of a free
circulation of air and moisture, les
sens the danger of drowning or dry
ing out, and leaves a space between
the roots and the hard subsoil to be
filled in with soft, friable loam. On
Betting out the tree it should be care
fully trimmed with a pair of pruning
shears. If a couple of shovelfuls of
well-rotted manure is put in the bot
tom of the hole and then covered
with a little loam before the tree Is
set, it will provide sufficient nourish
ment to Rive it a good start.
After this excavation is partly filled.
the soil is firmed down as it is add
ed with a tamper or by treading. In
packlug the - soil around the roots,
avoid the common practice ot jouncing
the tree up and down, holding It by the
stem. It is desirable to mound up the
soil slightly after filling. This allows
for settling and carries away water
which might otherwise stand too close
to the tree.
If much of the root system is cut off,
a corresponding part of the top must
be sacrificed to compensate for the
lessened feeding capacity of the tree,
H. S. Adams, in the Cultivator.
Carrots for Horses.
Carrots are so seldom advised in
relation to stock feeding that It
might almost be thought they were
of little or no value as a food for
stock, whereas the opposite is the
case. For horses more particularly
carrots are highly beneficial. It has
often puzzled me why carrots are not
more grown and offerel for sale.
A comparatively small quantity
change hands for culinary purposes at
prices which are decidedly remunera
tive, and in excess of all other roots,
but for stock feeding they are hardly
to be found. On some soils it would
be a mistake to attempt carrots, but
where the soil is pliable and deep, no
crop is more easily grown, and if a
big supply was put on the market
their disposal would be easy and prices
good.
For home use a heap of carrots Is
most acceptable, as all kinds of stock
consume them greedily with good re
sults.
Carrots are often looked on as a
kind of delicate food for sick horses
If a horse is out of sorts and off his
feed, refusing almost everything and
eating with the greatest indifference,
and carrots are offered, they are eaten
at once with much appreciation. They
help to restore the appetite and give
condition to the horse. In these re
spects carrots are invaluable, and may
well be looked on as safe correctives,
but their usefulness extends beyond
the period of sickness and depression,
and horses In health may receive them
frequently as a good food to maintain
condition and activity. When first
given their effect is a little laxative,
hut that is desired in many cases, and
once given regularly, they act as quali
fying food. They are an excellent food
for itchy horses, and all in bad coat,
as they are cooling to the blood and
give a glow to the hair.
Horses of all ages may receive them,
including even the youngest backward
foals. Carrots should not be looked on
as mere additions to other foods, but
substitutes for them, as they are quite
capable of acting as a real food. They
should be pulped and mixed with grain
or chaff. Half a bushel a day is a good
allowance. Cows, sheep and pigs are
all fond of carrots, but as they im
part special benefits to the horse, he
should be the first served. W. R. Gil
bert, in Boston Cultivator.
Farm Notes.
Well-laid plans save tired muscles.
Get Into the habits of doing things
right.
Currycomb the cabbage patch with
a rake.
Ten hens in a house 10x10 feet it
about right.
The good grade cow is all right, but
avoid the grade sire.
If facts are really facts, they are bet
ter than theories on the farm. V
Early chicks, early broilers, early
eggs that is how poultry pays.
Look after weak places in the fen
ces and thus avoid neighboring quar
rels. Early-hatched pullets are equivalent
to early winter layers. It's high time
to get busy.
To watch the growth of plants, trees
and animals is one of the simplest and
best farm pleasures.
Pure breeds not only look better, but
also give more eggs and better meat
than fowls of all kinds and colors.
Feed is more important than breed,
and sometimes the way the feed is
fed is more Important the the feed.
Poor cows on a podr farm over
stockedresult, poverty. Good cows
on a few rich acres, result, prosper
ity. Ten days or two weeks is the length
of time usually required after a male
bird is put with a flock of hens until
the eggs will do for hatching.
The advice "get out of the ruta"
only applies to farmers who can see
for themselves. A blind horse is bet
ter off in the well-worn track.
The best way to keep fowls free
from lice is to keep the poultry house
clean, have proper ventilation and
have bandy dust baths composed of
road dust to which sulphur has been
added.
The quickest way to kill a corn
crop is to work the soil when it is
too wet. This leaves the soil In bad
shape to cultivate and it bake and
dries out just when the moisture Is
most needed.
Hens which are to be breeders must
rest most of the time during the win
ter. They msy not lay many eggs
during the winter, but will make pro
fitable breeds and quiet mothers whea
spring comes.

Some Divorce Customs.
A great variety of divorce laws pre
vail in different countries. The an
cient Jews had a discretionary power
of dlvlrcing their wives; and in Hin
dustan a mnn and wife may become
divorced through nn incident which an
an American might take as a matter
of dally domestic life.
A curious custom regarding divorce
prevails In Cochln-Chlna, where a
couple may become divorced by mere
ly breaking a pair of chop sticks bo
fore a company wheh is assembled to
witness the Fervlce.
Divorces are scarcely ever known to
occur In Greece; while In Thibet it is
almost Impossible to obtain a di
vorce, and remarriage Is positvely for
bidden. Two kinds of divorce are known In
Circassla. By the first the divorced
people are allowed to remarry at
once, and by thp second remarriage
is not allowed within a year. '
It Is said that among certain tribes
of American Indlnns divorce may be
accomplished by breaking the pieces
of sticks given to the witnesses at the
marriage ceremony.
