Microbe of Lockjaw.
Lockjaw, known to medical men as
tetanus. Is one of those terrible mala
dies which occasion great suffering
and baffle the best attempts of the pro
fession to successfully treat them.
Commencing with stiffness of the Jaw
muscles, tetanus quickly goes on to
produce violent convulsions, which ut
terly exhaust Its victim's strength,
preventing him from taking food, ow
ing to his being unable to open his
mouth; hence Its more popular desig
nation of "lockjaw." Investigations
have shown that this dreadful dis
ease is due to a microbe which com
monly exists In ordinary soil and the
surface mud of the streets, which hab
itat explains the reason why tetanus
frequently attacks persons who hatye
been Injured In street accidents and
had their wounds contaminated with
refuse nnd dust from the roadway.
Although no certoln cure for tetanus
Is yet known, progress is being made

"Our little daughter, when three
months old, began to break out on the
head, and we had the best doctors to
treat her. but they did not do her any
good. They said she had eczema. Her
scalp was a solid scale all over. The
burning and itching was so severe
that she could not rest, day or night.
We had about given up all hopes
when we read of the Cutlcura Reme
dies. We at once got a caTte of Cutl
cura Soap, a bot of Cutlcura Oint
ment and one bottle of Cutlcura Re
solvent, and followed directions care
fully. After the first doBe of the Cutl
cura Resolvent, we used the Cutlcura
Soap freely and applied the Cutlcura
Ointment. Then she began to Im
prove rapidly and in two weeks the
scale came oft her head and new hair
began to grow. In a very short time
she was well. She Is now sixteen
years of age and a picture of health.
We used the Cutlcura Remedies about
Ave weeks, regularly, and" then we
could not tell she had been affected
by the disease. We used no other
treatments after we found out what
the Cutlcura Remedies would do for
her. J. Fish and Ella M. Fish, Mt.

The flowers are four or live Inches

The three things necessary to make

slight depression so the water may

FLOWERS IN THE YARD.
Besides the shrubs in the yard we
must have flowers. f Plant all you

It is almost as bad to abuse a beauti

Don't plant in round beds. Plant
In long beds In front of the shrubbery

PLANTS AND THE SOIL.
There is no soil so poor that It can
not bo made to grow flowers, vege
tables, shrubs and trees well. If prop
erly treated. Successful cultivation
demands two things a good mechan
ical condition of the soil and rich
ness. The first Is equally as Impor
tant, even more Important than the
second. Given a soil In good mechan
ical condition, It Is simply necessary
to work In the proper amount of well
decayed manure at planting time.
Never dig fresh manure into the
ground Just before planting. If you
have none which is well rotted and
can not get any, then spread the
fresh manure thinly on top of the
ground between the plants and allow
tho rain to wash it in gradually. If
the soil has been cultivated before
and has plenty ot decayed vegetable
matter in It, excellent results may be
had with artificial fertilizers bought
from the florist or seedsman.
Bone Is good, but It Is not a com
plete fertilizer. Wood ashes should
be used with cautloD, as the large
amount of lime they contain may do
mischief. The best Is what Is known
as a complete fertilizer. Ask when
you buy It bow to use it and never
use more than directions permit. A
very light sprinkling over the soil
after spading or- plowing and then
raked In is best. Chemical fretlllzers
are very strong and will kill or In

THE SUGAR BEET.
A subscriber, In Adams County,
asks a number of questions about the
culture of sugar beets; It is quite
probable that many, of our readers
are Interested In the subject. In Mich
igan and other States where consid
erable attention has been paid to the
Industry, the Interest seems to be
growing, and the indications are that
growing the beets for the factory is a
fairly profitable business for the far
mer. Years ago when experiments
with beets were carried on at Perdue
and In other parts of tbe State the
sugar per cent. In our beets was found
to ba fully equal to that in other
States where trial was made with
them, and where since then large and
prosperous factories for making the
sugar have been maintained. We
have never fully understood why In
diana failed to engage in the beet
sugar Industry.
One question asked by our corre
spondent is "How many tons ot sugar
beets can one expect to raise, per
acre, on ground that will produce
from seventy-five to ninety bushels of
corn?"
That would be number one land
and would produce a crop of beets
considerably above the average,
which is from twelve to sixteen tons
per acre. Such land as he describes
ought to be good for twenty tons. The
factories pay from $4 to $4.50 a ton
for the beets, the cost of producing
and harvesting varies from $25 to
130 an acre, so that a twenty-ton
crop would be quite profitable. In

CARE OF THE COW.
Mr. Fcrree Hoyt, of Washington
County, Indiana, says to prevent n
cow sucking herself, he uses the head
stall ot a halter, and puts on the
cow's head, and a circlnglo around
her body back of the forelegs, then
take a piece of wood stilllclcntly
strong, and of the proper length, to
extend from tho headstall back be
tween the forelegs to .the clrclngle.
This prevents sucking, and Is not a
burden to the cow, he says.

In a right way. I build my houses
so tho sow can keep warm If the ther.
momotcr stands at zero. I breed my
sows to farrow In February and In

patches of rye and when It gets up
good I let my pigs run on It until
about Christmas, then I take them
off for the spring litter. When the
pigs are about one month old I begin
to give them warm cream separator

SILAGE IN LIEU OF PASTURE.
Reforrlng to feeding corn silage
the year round, Hoard's Dairyman
says that when land la too expensive
to pasture, that la, when silage from
an acre will feed three or four cows
while an acre ot pasture will feed only
one or two cows, the silo becomes one
of the most economical as well as the
best methods of preparing succulent
feed for cows the year round. We
believe that a silo Is one ot the best
methods of supplementing short pas
ture during the dry time In summer.
Silage is not equal to good June pas
ture, but we do not know of a better
substitute. There is no question but
that more mlik can be produced per
acre by the use ot the silo than from
an acre of grass.
This Is Just the thing a good many
dairy farmers have yet to fully
reallzo, that corn silage can always
be relied on fer producing milk, and
especially is .the thing to carry mi'k
production through dry seasons when
there Is no grass pasturage.
FEEDING COWS FOR PROFIT.
A practical dairy farmer in Ca,nai'i
referring to his experience, In th
Farm and Dairy, lays down the fol
lowing rules for dairy feeding at the
greatest profit:
First, build a summer silo and
grow more corn, using ensilage to
supplement pastures In summer. .
Second, take fifteen acres ot land
(on a hundred-acre farm) near the
buildings. Divide into three fields.
Follow a three-year rotation thereon.
First year: Corn, an early variety.
Feed In August and September.
Second year: Mixed grain, oats,
peas and barley (four bushels per
acre) seed down ten pounds red
clover, four pounds timothy per acre.
Cut quite green In July. Do not al
low to lodge.
Third year: Clover cut in late
June and early August
' Do not hesitate to feed this fifteen
acres of crop In the summer, even If
things should look blue for the win
ter forage supply. Let no considera
tion prevent -Us utilization at the
proper time, not even an abundance
of grass. It will always pay to feed
such forage In summer.
MIXING CATTLE BREEDS.
There Is a good deal of force In the
following, on the subject of crossing
breeds, by a correspondent of tbe
Breeders' Gazette. He says:
The tendency ot the American
farmer In the past has been to hybrid
ize all his farm animals. Even his
hens all became a mixture after a
year or two. Especially has this
been the case with farmers In the
Eastern States. Those who bad Jer
sey cows have crossed and re-crossed
with Holsteln-Fresian bulls until
they have got neither one nor the
other, and some of tbem come very
near ' to nothing. Some farmers
seemed to think they could outwit
the Almighty by crossing the Jersey
with the Holsteln and so get the large
flow of the Holsteln with the rich
milk of the Jersey. The difference
between the two breeds Is too great.
Nature was shocked and dumbfound
ed. The result has been In many
cases the small yield of the Jersey
coupled with ths poor quality of the
Holsteln.
There Is a vast difference between
a good Holsteln and a poor one, both
in quality and quantity of milk. Jer
seys also differ very much In regard
to quantity of milk. A herd of first
class Jersey cows Is as good as a
gold 'mine to a farmer who knows
how to handle them for best results
and Improve them by judicious se
lection. The same can be said of
the Holsteln. The breeder of Hol
steln cattle In quite apt to condemn
(he Jersey cow, and the breeder of
the Jersey is apt to condemn the Hol
steln. There are noble specimens in
each breed, and the breeders, the
men who handle the animals, are re
sponsible for so many poor ones. It
Is the result of carelessness, lack ot
Judgment, taste and discrimination.
The Shorthorns aro rapidly comlns
to the front and the milking strain
of this breed will doubtless supplact
many ot the mongrel Jerseys .nd
