The Manure Spreader.
No implement on the farm can
serve the farmer better than does the
manure spreader. All fanners art
learning the value of manure, and all
are interested In increasing its value
as a fertilizer for the farm crops.
Many soils need a great deal more
manure than the farmer who is culti-
vating them is capable t.f making un-
der his system of farming. To those
who feel the need of using much more
manure than they can possibly pro-
duce, the manure spreader may do
those for liquors, lint the latest form very valuable service. While the ma-
they have assumed is that of little
silver cups, elegantly and da iitlly
fashioned. To the eye the poltf !i i-
admittedly attractive, but glass 1:1 ay
claim greal^r qualities. Th< . • is
little to choose in point of price.
it is not so much the thing itself,
«s the manner in which it Is reflected
in our brain, that gives it its value.
Whilst we are working steadily to?
n fixed purpose, we often at the sani^
time fulfil another which we had n t.
in view.
Nature's Way Is Best.
Thn function strengthening and tissim
building plan of treating chronic, linger-
ing and obstinate cases of disease as pur-
sued liy Dr. Pierce, is following after
Nature s plan of restoring health.
Ho uses natural remedies, that is
extracts from native medicinal roots,
prepared by processes wrought out by
Iho expenditure of much time and
money, without the use of alcohol, and
by skillful combination in just the right
v Apportions.
Usod as ingredients of Or. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. ISlack Cherry-
bark, Queen's root, Golden Seal root,
Bloodroot and Stone root, specially exert

How many people criticise severely
simply for fear of betraying their tn-
nornnce, no knowing that a tolerant
spirit is a sign of the highest culture. I
nitre spreader does not increase the
manure heap, by its evenness In
spreading any given quantity per acre,
the value of the manure already made
may be increased over its value when
spread in the loti way.
It Is careful, painstaking work to
spread tea or even twelve loads of
manure lo the acre. The ordinary
way of scattering places fifteen to
twenty-five loads of manure to the
acre.
On the ordinary depleted soil that
fails to grow clover fifteen to twenty
loads of manure i.s really a waste,
not that the returns in increased yield
of crops will not repay, but that the
same manure scattered evenly on two
or even more acres will enable that
soil to grow clover or some other
leguminous crop that aids in increas-
ing the productive power of the land.
The manure spreader fills a very
Important place in modern agriculture.
It.s introduction upon a farm means
that the farmer is studying along the
line of increasing or maintaining the
fertility of his farm. The use of the
spreader greatly lessens the labor of
handling manure, making it a small
task to handle latge amounts of it.
The old rotten straw stacks that have
been breeding beds for noxious farm
, weeds for sears are cleaned up when
the spreader is purchased. The farm-
er at once begins the study of making
and saving manure. Tho by-products
of the farm, the straw, corn stallca,
etc., are considered as material for
increasing the output of the farmyard
manure.
Farmers that now own spreaders are 1
scattering the manure upon the wheat
crops during fall and winter. A light
dressing of manure increases the
yield of wheat, lessens the risk of loos I
ing a catch of clover sown in the I
spring;, and permits the handling of
the manuro at a season when the
ground is solid and will not be serious-
ly tramped by horses and implements.
Previous to the use of the spreader
tho farmer would invariably scatter
fifteen to twenty loads of manure to
the acre on his corn land. Should the
season be unusually dry the presence
of manure beneath the seed bed will
seriously lessen the yield of grain
when compared to the unmanured land.
When spread on tho wheat land the
wheat is benefited. The young clover
is more sure of catching, more acres
are covered and the ground is really
In belter shape for corn when its turn
comes in the crop rotation.— W. ii.
Anderson, Posey Co., Intl.. in Farmers'
Review.
When Fields Are Bare.
When the fields are bare is a good
time to go over them and form an
estimate of what their condition is for
Ihe coming season. In many spots
will be found the need of the applica-
tion of fertilizers of some kinds. If
the meadows have not been pastured
in tho fall or winter, the parts in
which plant food is abundant will be
covered by a thick mat of dead grass,
which came on after tho regular mow
ing time. If the grass grew but little
after that time, the evidence of the
need of manure Is sufficient to justify
considerable applications.
When the fields are bare tho old
weeds along the fenccs or in the fence
corners will stand out with amazing
clearness. The farmer can then make
up his mind as to how good a farmer
he is. so far as keeping his farm
clean is concerned. In the first dry
days of early spring some of these
collections of weeds can be burned
with advantage lo the looks of the
farm and possibly to tho crops, as
these weeds often harbor numerous
insects in a cocoon state, to say noth
ing of spores of the various kinds of
blight.
When ileitis are bare is the lime of
all others that they show the treat
lent they have received. The tramped
places show, as do also the little cuts
that have been made in them by fresh-
els. This is as true of the pastures as
of the meadows. The pasture brook
exhibits only ragged, broken sides,
which, if ever, should bo a suggestion
to the owner of the loss he is sustain-
ing from the barrenness of so much
hind that might be producing pasture
grass or other farm crops.
AWFUL PSORIASIS 35 YEARS.
Terrible Scaly Humor in Patches All
Over the Body—Skin Cracked and
Bleeding—Cured by Cuticura,
"I was afflicted with psoriasis for i
thirty-five years. It was In patches !
all over my body. I used three cakes j
of Cuticura Soap, six boxen of Oin!
ment and two bottles of Hesolvent
lu thirty days I was completely cured, j
and I think permanently, as it was j
about fivo years ago. The psoriasis ;
first made its appearance in red spotf,
generally forming a circle, leaving in '
the center a spot about the size of a
silver dollar of sound flesh. In a short
time tho affected circle would form
a heavy dry scale of a white silvery
appearance and would gradually drop
off. To remove the entire scales by 1
bathing or using oil to soften them
the flesh would be perfectly raw. and |
a light discharge of bloody substance
would oozo out. That scaly crust
would form again in twenty-four
hours. It was worse on my arms and
limbs, although it was in spots all i
over my body, also on my scalp. If
I let the scales remain too long wish-
on* removing by bath or otherwise,
the skin would crack and bleed. I ;
suffered intense itching, worse at
nights after getting warm in bed, ci
blood warm by exercise, when 1;
would be almost unbearable. W. M

NEW HATS NEED ANCHORING
Hatpins Need to Be Driven Through
and Clinches
"There's no way to keep a hat like
that on straight exeept to Jab all the I
pins down through the skull and fas-
ten them in the roof of the mouth j
with clamps." An Imported Gains- ;
borough for early spv;ng wear was i
being discussed yesterday, and the
little knot of women gathered round
tho case laughingly agreed that the j
method of anchorage suggested by one
of them was the only one to tit the j
ea;0. The new models of the build >
that have arrived froja abroad fairly j
' overshadow eve a the largest of th.
winter hats and run:.;!' has it that still
more exaggerated shapes arc on their
way. Plumes will be larger than ever,
the milliners say, but a change in their j
arrangement is note l. The striking j
and often eccentric effects striven
ifter in many of the winter styles j
will be avoided, and grace of line
studied instead. The hat of moderate
size will have small vogue this season.
There is to bo a fancy for extremes.
As the largo shapes grow to propor-
tions never before dreamed of in the
milliners' philosophy the toques and
walking hats are growing even tinier
than those worn last year.—New
YOrk Press.
A weak mind sinks under prosperity
as well as under adversity. A strong

FOOD AND STUDY
A College Man's Experience.
"All through my high school course
and first year in college," writes an
ambitious young man, "I struggled
■with my studies on a diet of greasy,
pasty foods, being especially fond of
cakes and fried things. My system
got into a state of general disorder
and it was difficult for me to apply
myself to school work with any de-
gree of satisfaction. I tried different
medicines and food preparations but
did not seem able to correct the dif-
ficulty.
"Then my attention was called to
Grape-Nuts food and I sampled it. I
had to do something, so. I just buck-
led down to a rigid observance of tho
directions on the package, and in
less tl'.an no time began to feel better.
In a few weeks my strength was re-
stored, my weight had increased, 1
had a clearer head and felt better in
every particular. My work was sim-
ply snort to what it was formerly.
"My sister's health was badly run
down and she had become so nervous
that she could not attend to her
music. She went on Grape-Nuts nml
had tlie same remarkable experience
that I had. Then my brother, Frank,
who is in the postoffice department
at Washington city and had been try-
ing to do brain work or. greasy foods,
cakes and all that, joined the Grape-
Nuts army. 1 showed him what it
was and could do and from a broken-
down condition lie has developed into
a hearty and efficient man.
"Besides these I could give account
of numbors of my fellow-studenta who
have made visible improvement men-
tally and physically by the use of
this food." Name given by l'ostuin
