Pennsylvania Ave., Naahville, Tenn. “We
had almoat given up hope of her ever being
any better. She haa taken four bottle*

ha* improved beyond our expectation*, haa
gained in flesh, and we are almoat aure ahe
will soon be sound and well.” Mr. Cur-

■poonfu! and if It doesn't straighten
you right up and make you feel An#
and vigorous I want you te go back to
the store and get your money. Dod-
son's Liver Tone is destroying the
sale of calomel because it is real liver
medicine; entirely vegetable, therefore
it cannot salivate or make you sick.
I guarantee that one spoonful of
Dodson's Liver Tone will put your
sluggish liver to work and clean your
bowels of that sour bile and consti-
pated waste which is clogging your
system and making you feel miserable,
I guarantee that a bottle of Dodson'S
Liver Tone will keep your entire fam-
ily feeling fine for months. Give it to
your children. It is harmless; doesn't
gripe and they like Its pleasant taste,
Stop using calomel! It makes you
sick. Don’t lose a day’s work. If you
feel lazy, sluggish, bilious or consti-
pated, listen to me!
Calomel Is mercury or quicksilver
which causes necrosis of the bones.
Calomel, when It comes into contact
with sour bile, crashes Into It, breaking
it up. This is when you feel that aw-
ful nausea and cramping. If you feel
"all knocked out,” if your liver is tor-
pid and bowels constipated or you
have headache, dizziness, coated
tongue, if breath is bad or stomach
sour Just try a spoonful of harmless
Dodson’s Liver Tone.
Here's my guarantee—do to any
drug store or dealer and get a 50-cent
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone. Take a

He built his silo for the cows and
calves when the grass doos not prove
sufficient to keep them In good con-
dition. It is not a winter or summer
silo, but is used at any time during the
year when the 6tlage is needed.
He grows a great variety of crops
and has good grazing crops for bis live
stock 12 months in the year. He uses
no fertilizer on his land. He grows
leguminous crops to feed the live
stock, and the live stock spreads the
manure over the farm. The growing
of leguminous crops fills the soil full
of nitrogen, adds immense quantities
of humus to the soil and furnishes the
most valuable grazing for all kinds of
live stock.
Mr. Gaitsklll uses large plows and
strong teams and turns under large
quantities of vegetable matter to fur-
nish humus. He does not abuse his
land by burning off the vegetable mat
ter and plowing with a one-horse plow.
He is planning to get a tractor, plow
deep, turn under vegetable matter and
grow better crops each year.

8. H. Gaitsklll, McIntosh, Fla.,
came to the state in 1884 and began
growing oranges, but did not sell his
Kentucky farm for some years after
he came to Florida. He was quite well
satisfied with his orange-growing ven-
ture until the freeze of 1895 killed all
of his trees. This freeze was a great
shock and the orange grower did not
know what to do. Mr. Gaitsklll started
to rebud and build up his grove, but
did not feel that ft was advisable to
rely upon oranges for everything and
began to grow corn, hay and other
crops fur man and beast. Prior to the
freeze he made no effort to grow feed,
but used some of his orange money to
buy everything he needed. He soon
learned that he could grow very fine
crops of corn, hay, oats, peas and
other general farm crops and finally
decided to raise good live stock to
consume the crops grown. Having de-
cided to go Into the live-stock business
he sold his Kentucky farm and bought
an old sugar plantation adjoining his
farm and proceeded to make the grow-
ing cf pork and beef his main work.

The largest Canadian wheat shipments through New York ever known
are reported for the period up to October 15th, upwards of lour uad a
quarter millioa bushels being exported In less than six weeks,
and this was but the overflow of shipments to Montreal, through which
point shipments were much larger than to New York.
Yields as high as 60 bushels of wheat per acre are reported from all
parts of the country; while yields of 45 bushels per acre are common.

One of Moat Valuable Poultry Feed*
Available on Farm—Encourages
Hena to Lay.
Paradoxical Procedure.
“I guess the submarine will put it
over her watching enemies."
“But to put it over, she has to go
under.”
The most valuable poultry food
available on most farms is milk. Many
farmers feed all their surplus milk to
the hogs. Milk, when fed to the hogs,
makes flesh that sells for seven or
eight cents a pound. When fed to
poultry, especially during the winter
months, it makes eggs that sell for 25
cents a pound, and flesh that brings
twice the price ordinarily offered for
hogB. And besides, in discriminating
markets, milk-fed poultry always sells
for a premium.
Given all the milk they will con-
sume, hens will lay well in season and
out of season. One cannot overfeed
of milk. It Is sate to keep it before
the hens always.
The vessels in which the milk Is fed
should be washed and scalded dally.
Earthenware crocks are the best for
the feeding of milk since they are eas-

Here are pictured two collars nnd
a collur with vestee, which are recent
additions to the alreudy grout array
of neckwear. The collars are ninde
of transparent orgundle nnd the collar
nnd vestee of sheer organdie trimmed
with Venetian lace insertion. Collars
and vestees of this kind are liberally
used in finishing plain waists and
blouses In all sorts of materials to
give them the summery touch and the
beeotningness of white about the face.
There Is little difference in the two
collars. Both are large enough to he
classed among small capes aud both
are made of plain, transparent organ-
die. This material lends Itself per-
fectly to narrow plaitings. nnd each
of these cape collars is covered with
rows of plaitings set close together.
In the collur at the left they are
atltched to the foundation cape and
turned over, and It Is necessary to
press them down, hi the other collar
the plaitings are hemstitched to the
plain cape.
The smnli vestee Is frilled on to
a short yoke at the front and slips
under the sides of the bodice, leaving
the collar free to (nil over the shoul-

Couch Arrangement
The following way of making up a
couch when used as a bed will prove
satisfactory, provided the couch is of
that type which has sides that can
be let down like the swinging ends
or sides of a kitchen table. Make up
the hed In the morning the same as
ordinarily, hut when the sheets and
blankets nre In place Instead of rock-
ing them In at the sides, fold th«
blanket and then the sheets smooth-
ly from the sides toward the center.
Thus the bedclothes will occupy only
the top of the couch, leaving the sides
free. Drop the sides, spread a cover
over the whole couch and a neat re-
sult will appear. Have for the pillows
day covers like the couch cover,
which can be easily slipped off at
night.

sels are used, they will, In a very short
time, become so fouled that thorough
cleaning is almost impossible.

of feeding it is to use It In moistening
the mash. When used for this pur
pose the milk will be evenly dlstrib
