Many years ago, when the great beeches where the echo lingers were saplings and only the rocks and trees were old, John and Joanna lived with their parents in neighboring cottages of the Valley Shut-In. In the winter they went tramping over the hills to so tool together, John helping Joanna over icy paths and through the sl1ift~ lug drifts, and Joanna assisting John r: over harder paths in the spelling book,, whispering words to him as they sat together on the lower form. And John often had a juicy apple for Jo- anna, or she a handful of nuts for him. in summer days they led :1 sweet. wild life together, fishing for the little minnows in the river, reach- ing for the cowslips or the flags that grew in the swamp. and when they older grew, they met in the gleaming and talked of many things. And then one night when the muted birds sang softly in the thicket, when a thrush poured forth a flood of melody in the forest and a whip—poor-will mocked insistently by the riverside, John and Joanna watched the mating birds and told to one another the old. old story. No painting tells us now of Joanna-’5 charms. Not even a silhouette remains to show usJohn‘s stronger face. Only tradition hashandrd down their story, 'and we are left to‘picture to ourselves the rosy check and laughing eyes that had charmed John's willing,r mind, and ‘ firm figure and honest face im Joanna's herd.

John had chopped the trees that made the beams, had built the huge brick chimney. had placed the glass in the little windows, and dragged from the ledges stone for the doorway. Joanna had filled the shelves of the cupboard with linen and wool and the beds with feathers gathered in many waysn She had plan‘ed ferns and flow’» ers around. the doorway and trained a growing woodbine across the little porch. John had fashioned many a piece of homely furniture, a cherry table, a chair of gnarled tree trunks. a chest and a settle for the fireplace, and shingle scoops for dipping meal from the bin and wooden spoons for Joanna’s use. And whenithcy began their life together a pair of wrens built a nest in the doorway where the woodbine grew. For one short year they lived with the spirits of lave and content in hap- py Valley S‘hut-In, but when the suns and shadows of that short year had passed. in the midst of the budding of the leaves and flowers, the mating of the birds and the death of n dearer hope. Joanna slept the ’sleep that knows no waking and John roamed alone in a wider valley. The latch-string was never pulled in the door of Desolatc Cottage, and the Wrens flew away never to return.

DAIRY MANAGEMENT. How to Keep the Co“‘u in at Prime Condition of Health and In- sure Pecuniary Success. Twice each day, 14 times each week, our cows are driven from the field to the stable during pasture season and milked, cacli cow tied in her own stall and fed a supplementary ruti‘pn of grain, but not a balanced one except that it aids digestion and assimilation with pusturc consumed during the day. This grain ration is made up largely of bran, with per cent. of chop added. 53.) LABOR-SAVING BARN. It In Conveniently Arranged fur A Place \thre Fan-ming- lu Con- ducted on u Large Scale. The barn portrayed herewithis built upon a large scalc, holding 100 tons of buy. The extreme measurements. are sketched CO by {)0 feet.

Our cows are driven quietly to and from field, which is not fur, nor should it. be distant. We saw a man go one mile to u rented posture to milk. This was on the right side of economy as uguinst driving,r cows the distance to and from pasture. We fear some of our duirymen are not sufficiently careful during the summer in curing for stables, keeping them cleanly and re- moving daily some of the products that soon produce noisome odors. Every- thing should be kept absolutely clean nnd every stain dusted with gypsum or what is almost as good, common road dust. Alnmst daily our stalls are swept. and the walk behind treated likewise, so that they present a tempting place for the cows to go to eat and rest while they are speedily puilcd. We advocate rapid milking when done in n masterly way. In fly time a burlap cover closed up at. the rear is thrown over a cow while milking her, and she stands per- fcctly quiet. and cannot, use her tail to 11W “filmynncc of the milker. L'ddcrs and tents are dusted before milking, thus avoiding fOI'elgn substances get.- ting,r into the milk, which we consider very important. At once after cows are milked they are turned out to avoid soiling the trench. We are. poor on. thority on kicking (sows. The best way to break them is not to have them. Kicking cows are, we think. the result of poor handling: and truining.~—Gcorgc E. Scott, in National Stockman. HAULING CORN FODDER.

One among the best butter cows we ever possessed was of undeniable "scrub"origin uud exceedingly angular. While a great many people find fault with the Devon un uccbunt of their long horns, yet. they have proven themselves u good beef cattle; besides, tlley'huve excellent. milking qualities. in the Elgin district there are prob. ably produced 100,000 pounds of bun. ter per day. \Vlllch'would require 2,500,- 000 pounds of milk and a loss of ten cents per hundred would mean a loss of $2.500 per day, or nearly $1,000,000 3 your. . ' One really good cow will furnish us much milk as two ordinary Ones, while the one will 0081’. but. hit“: as much as the two for keeping. In the hitter case the profit. all goes in keeping the extra cow. If we would prosper we mum, keep our wits awake. , Skip one feeding period after the calf is removed so it will have a gnod appe- tite, then give from three to four pints of whole milk fresh from the cow; it will then drink without the finger, Feed only twice :1 day and the first week feed its mother‘s milk fresh-western Plowman. Don't “lorry the Cow, A rough, quick-tempered man should never be tolerated around the cow stable. The cow loves quietiude. Any disturbance which excites her lessens if it does not stop the secretion and flow of milk. it is very easy for an employc. by kicking and beating a cow just be- fore or while he is milking, to lessen her milk flow by one-half. This is called “holding up” the milk. It is really a prevention of milk secretion, and the milk thus lost. does not come down at any subsequent milking.— llurnl World.

MARKETING BETTER. A Mlnnenoln man Consider-n Thin the Mom Important Problem of the Dairy. After five years’ experience I find that this is a most important prob- lem. if the yield from the creamery is poor, especially in quality, the man- ager should investigate and if the fault lies with the butter maker, he should socul‘e another one. as good men can be secured it reasonable salaries are paid. if the fault is With the patrons. it, will be more difiicult to remedy, but firmness at the weigh can will usually bring about the desired change. Pack- nch should be neat and Clean and put up in accordance with the demands of the market. The safest package for our Minnesota creamerics is the 56- puund ash tub. The bulk of the goods goes to New York. By combining and shipping in curloads a saving of ten cents per cwt. can be effected. If you have a good commission house do not leave it. Investigate ,nL‘W firms care- fully, even before shipping a trial lot. 1 do not like the idea of having one man to handle the butter on a salary. I would diVidc shipments several times and make cnl‘eful comparisons of re~ turns, consideringnot only the price, but the weight. It would be well for creamerics to send their secretary or manager to study the max-keno which they ship. Beware of tempting offers from outside houses or wholesale gro~ cers and never ship to them without investigating references carefully.—- Orange Judd Farmer. My Don‘t Travel In One Track. The last report of the Massachusetts highway conunissiuu states that. an "important.outlay" in maintaining- stonc roads is caused by the tendency cf drivers to travel in one track, there- by causing “a single line of final to be worn for a width of 11/3 to2feet," and making necessary repairs that would not be called for if truvelsprcad out a little over the surface. Signs reading. “Don’t drive in the middle of the road" have been placed on road: where this tendency has been most. marked and has been respected in many cases. The roads would be still further preserved if wide tires and axles of unequal length were .used on heavy vehicles.

GEESE CARRIED A MESSAGE. An Ingenious Scheme for Notifying Neighbor” \Vho Have Trouble- some Fowl. "Down in the Neck," two neighboring louscllolds once dwelt. in aniity. They still dwell there, but in utility no morc. Let them llcl‘L‘ respectively be called the Hod- kinscs and the l’odkinscs for the very good reason that those names arc unknown among the truck plantations. The liodkinscs are keeping geese this year. The l’odkinses are not kcc )ing gccsc«~not if they know it. Now the llodkins geese acquired the habit, when weary of disporttng themselves in the “big ditch,” of resorting to the front lawn of the l’odkins dcmesnc. Thcsc invasions the Podkinsus resented. Their remonstrauces failed of effect. A condition of strained relations ensued. Mrs. l’odkins, kindly old v soul, said she "didn't want tcr git tll' mon- . folks a-scruppin’ and a~mixin’ things upl over a passe] 0' geese." So she organized a board of strategy, consisting of herself, her daughter “Sis” and her boy “doc.” The result of their deliberations and certain preparations, wlicrc figured needle and thread, some ruins of corn and some bits of cardboard, ecalnc cvidcnt next morning. The Hodkins geese appeared as usual, but l returned home uickly, squawking so nois- ily as to bring t to llodkinscs in a body to the front door. \tht they saw paralyzch them.

A remarkable cure from a disease which has generally wrecked the lives of children, and left them in a condition to which death itself would. be tpreferred has attracted a rent amount 0 attention among the resi- dents of the west end of Ap leton. The case is that of little Villard Creech, son of Richard D. Crecch, a well known employe’ of one of the large aper mills in the Fox River Valley. The lad was attacked by spinal disease and his parents had given up a i hope of his ever being well again when, as by a miracle, he was healed and is now in school as hap )y as any ofliis mates.

When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal con- dition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases of of ten are cause. by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. \Ve will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh that cannot be_curcd by Hall’s Catarrh.

Two Letters to Mrs. Pinkham. Mrs. Jon}: W‘ILLXAMs, Englishtown, N. J., writes: “ DEAR Mus. PIXKHAM:-—I cannot be- gin to tell you how I suffered before taking your remedies. I was so weak that I could hardly walk across the floor without falling. I had womb trouble and such a bearing—down feeling- ; also suffered with my back and limbs, pain in womb, inflammation of the bladder, piles and indigestion. Before I had taken one bottle of Lydia. E. Pinkham‘s Vegetable Compound I felt a. great deal. better, and after taking two and one- half bottles and half a box of your Liver Pills I was cured. If more would take your medicine they would not have to suffer so much.” Mrs. Josnrn PETERSON, 513 East St, Warren, Pan, writes: “Dunn Mas. Plannanz—I have suf- fered with womb trouble over fifteen years. I had inflammation, enlarge. ment and displacement of the womb. I had the backache constantly. also headache. and was so dizzy. I had heart trouble, it. seemed as though my heart was in my throat at times choir ing me. I could not walk around and I could not lie down, for then my heart would heat so fast. I would feel as though I was smothering. I had to sit. up in bed nights in order to breathe. I was so weak I could. not do any- thing. “I have now taken several bot- tles of Lydia. .E. Pinkham‘s Vegetable Compound. “and used three pack~ ages of Sanative Wash, and can say I- am perfectly cured. I do not. think I could have lived long if Mrs. Pink- ham’s medicine had not. helped me.” What do the Children Drink? Don't give them tea.“ or mice. Have you tried the new food drink called GRAIN-O?
