perform your daily tasks or cure for

The relation of the nerves and pen-
crative organs in woman is so close
that nine-tenths of the nervous pros-
tration, nervous debility, the blues,
sleeplessness and nervous irritability
arise from some derangement of the
organism which makes her a woman.
Fits of depression or restlessness and
irritability ; spirits easily affected, so
that one minute she laughs, the next
minute weeps; pain in the abdominal
region and between the shoulders;
loss of voice; nervous dyspepsia; a
tendency to cry at the least provoca-
tion—all these point to nervous pros-
tration.
Nothing will relieve this distressing
condition and prevent months of pros-
tration and suffering so surely as Lvdia

Ashes for Orchards.
I see quite a little discussion In the
papers about, ashes as a lcrtilizcr and
Its good effects in an orchard. I would
like to encourage others to use all they
can get of them, as my experience
with them in :ny orchard has caused
me to prize them very highly, and 1
buy all I can find in our village; hut
so few burn wood now it is hard to
get a supply. I give 25 cents a barrel
and furnish the barrel for them. My
first experience was about twenty
years ago, I had some old snow apple
trees that seemed most dead, there
were so many dead limbs on them 1
came very near grubbing them out. I
v ould have done so except they were
near iny bees and they usually light 1
in them and I old not mind cutting
limbs off of them. I was burning brush
one winter, cleaning up my timber and
made lot.s of ashes, and I hauled four
wagon loads anil spread them thick
under those trees. Such a change as
there was in those trees and fruit. The
fruit seemed to take on a new growth
and colored up. It seemed to me much
better, at least they took many first
premiums at our county and state
fairs. They are alive and bearing nice
fruit yet, and they get occasionally
some ashes, and tho balance of my
trees get all I can buy. I was back
in York state a few years ago and
visited one of the finest orchards in
that state. I was informed that the
owner bought ashes by the ton and
sowed I hem in his orchard; they came
from Canada, the ashes. How they
get Mich a supply there, I can't tell
but they ship carloads.
I think ashes will Supply what is
lacking in our soil, especially in an
old orchard to a great extent. A
young orchard seems to have a suffi-
cient supply for a few years. It seems
after a few years the trees use up the
supply of potash, which ashes will re-
.... place.—S. G. Soverhill, Bureau Co., 111.

The Saver and the Miser.
The miser is the poorest of men,
for, while he lives solely for self, ho
gets less out of life than any other
man. He has money, but denies him-
self the things that money can buy.
In making money the end, Instead of
the means of life ho narrows his pur-
poses and achievements dow a to noth-
ingness. But the despicable example
of one miser nor a thousand can ever
shake the firm foundation upon which
rest wholesome saving and thrift. The
-oul of thrift is saving. Most men
who have learned the trick of making
millions at a single deal first learned
how to double their pennies. To the
man who would become rich the habit
of saving, once firmly fixed, is his most
Important capital.—St. Louis Star-
Chronicle.
Winter Prices for Milk.
The price for milk in the winter
is generally very much higher than in
the summer. The difference for the
! whole country is about the difference
between 50 cents and $1.50. This dif-
ference, however, is extreme. In the,
! West, some of the milk will sell as
low as 90 cents per hundred pounds
in summer and 51.40 in winter, this
difference being about 50 cents. There
is very little excuse for this great
difference in price, especially for the
small price in summer. It can ouly
be explained on the supposition that
farmers have not yet learned how to
dispose of their milk in the summer
time. We believe that, all things con-
sidered, and on a well equipped farm,
I milk can be produced as cheaply, or j
nearly as cheaply, in winter as sum-
mer.
In the summer, often the question
of milking is a serious one, because
all the people on the farm are en-
gaged in looking after the crops that,
are then being grown. In the winter-
time, labor is more abundant and the
people who are doing tho work on
the farm are less pressed for time, j
Milking, therefore, should cost less in
the winter than in the summer. We
said, "on the farm that is well
equipped." This, of course, means the
farm that has a silo and where a
great amount of silage has been put
up in the fall. On some of our great-
est dairy farms the cows are not
turned out at all during the summer-
time, so far as pasturing is concerned;
but they are fed in the stalls, summer
and winter, in such cases winter feed
costing practically the same as sum-
mer feed.
The price for winter milk in north-
ern Illinois should be $1.40 or $1.50
per hundred pounds, on the basis of
the present price of feed. We believe,
| at such prices, It is possible for the
farmer to make money, providing he
so arranges his breeding operations
that about half of his cows will come
In fresh in the fall.

Stock in the Orchards.
A correspondent of the Farmers'
Review says that one of the greatest
causes of damage to orchards is the
practice of farmers turning their
stock into the orchards. He says that
he has known farms where this did
more damage than all other causes
combined. We believe the conditions
are only occasional in which it is safe
to turn stock into orchards. The
Feeding for Milk.
Taking it for granted that the dairy-
man has warm and comfortable win-
ter quarters for his milch cows, a
good flow of milk is readily produced
with proper feed and management. If
the farmer has corn silage, he is able
to put up the best and cheapest dairy
ration obtainable. We feed cows on
full flow of milk from 20 to 25 pounds
of silage twice a day, morning and
FIRST STORY CF IM AGINATIOM
Written by Ennana of Thebes for
Egypt's Crown Prince in 1300 B. C.
The "Tale of Two Brothers," writ-
ten 3,200 years ago by the Theban
scribe, Ennana, librarian (if the pal-
ace to King Merenptah, the supposed
Pharaoh of the Exodus, is the oldest
work of fiction extant.
The tale was written apparently fof
the entertainment of the crown prince,
who subsequently reigned as Seti H.
His name appears in two places on
the manuscript—probably the only sur-
viving autograph signatures of an
Egyptian king.
This piece of antique fiction, written
tin nineteen sheets of papyrus in a bold
hieratic hand, was purchased in Italy
by Mme. d'Orbiney, who sold it .n
1 -S37 to the authorities of the British
museum, where it is now known as
the d'Orbiney papyrus.
Other specimens of ancient Egyp-
tian fiction have since come to ligh',
which appear to prove that the Nils
valley was not only the birthplace oi
the arts and sciences, but was also th?
cradle of romance.—Stray Stories.

Egotism a Great Power.
Egotism Is the natural temptation
of all those whose individuality is
strong; the man of Intense desires, of
acute perception, of vigorous prefer-
ences, of eager temperament, is in
danger of trying to construct his life
too sedulously on his own lines; and
yet these are the very people who
help other people most, and in whom
the hope of the race lies. Meek,
humble, timid persons, who accept
things as they are, who tread in beat-
en paths, who are easily persuaded,
who ate cautious, prudent and sub-
missive, leave things very much as
they find them.
UNDER WHICH KING
"The More Postum the More Food—
the More Coffee the More Poison.
The Pres. of the W. C. T. U. in a
young giant state in the Northwest
says:
"I did not realize that I was a slave
to coffee till I left oft drinking It. For
three or four years I was obliged to
take a nerve tonic every day. Now
I am free, thanks to Postum Food
Coffee.
"After finding out what coffee will
do to its victims, I could hardly stand
to have my husband drink it; but he
was not willing to quit. I studied for
months to find a way to induce him
to leave it off. Finally I told him I
would make no more coffee.
"I got I'ostum Food Coffee, and
made it strong—boiled It the required
time, and had him read the little
book, 'The Road to Wellville,' that
comes in every pkg.
"To-day I'ostum has no stronger ad-
vocate than my husband! lie tells
our friends how to make It, and that
he got through tho winter without a
spell of the grip and has not had a
headache for months—he used to be
subject to frequent nervous head-
aches.
"The stronger you drink Postum the
more food you get; the stronger you
drink coffee tho more poison you get."

There's • reason.
wtuld be where the land is so sandy
that It will not pack under the feet of
the animals and the trees are headed ,
so high that the animals could not ;
browse the limbs. But this condition
is met with but rarely and not often
in the middle West. Our prairie soil
has In It a great deal of clay mixed
with humus and this when wet packs
readily. On our hillsides we often
find bowlder clay, and also in our roll-
ing land that has been timbered with
hardwood we find a clay that is very
retentive of moisture and will pack
down as hard as a rock. There is no
surer way of killing a tree than by
packing the ground around it. We
nave known of hogs collecting around
a single apple tree more than around
others and killing that apple tree.
Hogs, however, are less objectionable
in the orchards than other kinds of
stock, for tho reason that they root up
the ground and this improves the soil
rather than injures it. A small num-
ber of hogs may be given the run of
a large orchard and not do any great
amount of damage unless they collect
too much around one or two trees,
which if in clay soil are about sure to
be killed. We do not believe that, as
a general proposition, it is safe to
permit stock to run in our orchards
In the middle West.
To Do Away With Substitution.
Substitution is not justifiable without
a mutual agreement between purchas-
er and seller. Nurserymen should not
have a substitution clause printed on
their orders, but a blank space should
j be left for noting whatever may be
agreed on by both parties to the sub-
stitution. If orders are taken on the
above plan it is only necessary for tho
nurseryman to comply with the order.
'Ihere is hardly a nursery that will
not run short on some varieties, but a
, shyster agent will take orders for all
that is called for, and then ship what-
ever he pleases. The purchaser nas
nothing but the word of the agent that
the varieties are true to name.—J. T
Bonrell, ltichlnnd Co., 111.
The Dual Purpose Sheep.
There was a time when sheep were
raised for wool only. Then came a lime
when they were raised almost entirely
for mutton. Now there has been an
equalization, and the sheep that is
now wanted is the one that pro-
duces good mutton and a fair amount
of wool. When wool sells at .10 cents
a pound, as it does now, the man that
has been breeding entirely for mutton
regrets the course he has taken.
millet hay is given, in such quantities
as will be eaten up clean. About three
pounds of bran is given with silage
to those on full flow of milk, while
others receive proportionately less.
The feeder must constantly watch his
animals, as to how they respond to
liberal feeding, and vary bis methods
with different animals. With silage
that has an abundance of corn in it
there is no need of feeding ground
corn.
Salt the cows about every other
day, giving a small handful on feed.
This will keep their bowels open and
pjevent disorders of the digestive
organs, which occur quite frequently
with animals highly fed. Where no
silage is obtainable, a good flow can
be maintained by feeding good -clover
or millet hay in the morning and
bright shredded corn fodder at night.
For the grain ration, feed about four
pounds of bran and two pounds of
corn-meal, or four pounds of corn and
cob-meal, twice a day. Although not
as good as the silage ration, still, in
the absence of a silo, it will prove
very satisfactory. Feed, water and
milk the cows regularly; see to their
every comfort, treat them kindly at
milking time, and rest assured that
you. will receive your reward in a i
good flow of milk.—II. Pfaender,
Brown Co., Minn., in Farmers' He
view.
So Called "Wonder" Churns.
Many of the churns being offered up-
on the market with "wonder" attached
to their name in some form or other are
good things for the farmer to let alone.
We have just heard of a new churn
of this kind being manufactured In
Massachusetts. It makes a pound of
butter from a quart of milk, which
has been the form of fraud most com-
monly practiced in the sale of such
churns. It Is easy enough, by the use
of pepsin, to collect the butter-fat and
the casein in milk into one mass that
looks very much like butter. The
| mass, however, is not butter, but a
very rich, soft cheese. The men that
sell these churns depend upon this de-
ception for making their sales, and
we are sorry to believe that they find
altogether too many buyers.
