the Nile and built over the site of

Farming and writing poetry are two
things that every one 'thinks he can do.
Indeed, if there is anything easier
than faiiingoff a log it is writing poetry,
and if there is anything easier than
poetizing it is making a farm pay
where then who have been at it all
their lives have failed.
Of the two delusions the poetical one
is the least harmful. The editor can
send back the rhymes, and nothing is
lost but a two cent st"rat rod a sub-
scriber.
In farming, the ezrerasa.nter will
sometimes exchange the savings of a'

ence that he can do nothing with after
he has acquired it.

On the Advice
of His 'Doctor
Re Used Dr. Chase's Ointment for
Protruding Piles With Splendid
Results.
Too often a doctor can only think
of an operation when asked for a
treatment for piles. Some are suffi-
ciently broad-minded to use the most
effective treatment available, which is
undoubtedly Dr. Chase's Ointment, as
was proven in the ease referred to in
this letter.
Mr. Simon E. Jones, Railway street,
Inverness, N.S., writes :-"I have
found Dr. Chase's Ointment the best
treatment obtainable for protruding
piles. For three years I suffered
front piles, and was advised by a local
physician to try Dr. Chase's Ointment.
I had tried many treatments in vain,
and therefore know which is the best.
I ran highly recommend Dr. Chase's
Ointment, and you aro at liberty to
use this statement."
The reeord of cures of every form
of piles which stands, behind Dr.
Chase's Ointment Is the strongest
guarantee you can have that it will
promptly relieve and euro this all-
menf, even in the most n,Rgravated
rosin. COe a hcn all dealcte.

55 DovARcoun9C RoAD, Oct., ist, 1913.
"Par a long time, I have thought of
writing yod regarding what I term a
most remarkable cure effected by your
remedy"'Fruit-a-tives". I suffered from
Rheumatism, especially in my hands.
I have spent a lot of money without
any goodresults. I havetaken "I•'ruit-
a-tines" for 18 months now, and am
pleased to tell you that I am cured.
All the enlargement has not left my
hands and perhaps never will, but the
soreness is all gone and I can do any
kind of work. I have gained 35 pounds
in 18 mouths".
R. A. WAUGH
Rheumatism is no longer the dreaded
disease it once was. Rheumatism is
no longer one of the "incurable
diseases". "Fruit-a-tives" has proved
its marvellous powers over Rheu-
matism, Sciatica, Lumbago --in fact,
over all such diseases which arise from
some derangement of stomach, bowels,
kidneys or skin.
"Fruit-a-tives" is sold by all dealers
at 5oc, a box, 6 for $2.50, trial size,

Neuralgia

This Letter Tells of Wonderful Change
Effected by Dr. Chase's Nerve Food.
Mr James G Clark, Fostervillo,
York County, N.B., writes: -"I have
been a great sufferer from what the
doctors said was neuralgia of the
heart. The pain started in the back
of the neck and worked down into the
region of the heart. Though I had
taken a lot of medicine of one kind
and another, I could not get anything
to help me until I used Dr. Chase's
Nerve Food.
"When I began this treatment I
could not rest in bed,'except by sitting
upright, on account of the dreadful
pains about tho heart and the quirk,

HOME POTASH SUPPLY.

f
A Ton of Average Farm Manure ,Con-
tains Over Ten Pounds.
[Prepared by Ohio agricultural experiment
station.[
A ton or average farm manure con-
tains more than ten pounds of potash,
and not less than 10,000,000 tons or
such manure, containing 100,000,000
pounds of potash, are produced during
the six winter months when farm ani-
mals are being fed in stables and barn-
yards in 01110.
The investigations of the Ohio es•
periment station have shown that
when manure lies exposed -in an open
barnyard for three months more than
half Its potash is washed out by the
rain.
Even when manure was produced
under cover the toss when cattle stood
on :in earth Flour was 10 per cent great-
er than when the floor was cemented.
A few Ohio farmers are preventing
this waste by feeding under cover on
cemented floors and keeping the ma-
nure under cover until it can be spread
can the field, but it is a conservative
estimate that one-fourth of ail the pot-
ash produced annually in Ohio stables
and barnyards, or 25,000,000 pounds, is
absorbed by the soil under the stable
or yard. never to be recovered, or is
washed out and carried into the rivers.
While this stream of potash has been
tiowing from our barnyards, we have
'been purchasing of Germany about
one-fourth to one-third as much, which
nas cost by the time it has reached
the farm in the fertilizer sack not
much short or $1,000,000 annually.
The nitrogen and phosphorus of ma-
nure are not as quickly available as
the nitrogen or nitrate of soda and the
phosphorus of acid phosphate or bone -
rural, but the potash of manure comes
chiefly from the liquid excrement and
is mostly soluble in water, so that it is
ready -for immediate effect, and a
pound of potash in manure is worth at
least as much as a pound of the same
substance In the fertilizer.sack.
While this stream has been flowing
from our barnyards, it has been carry-
ing with it both nitrogen and .phos-
phorus, the loss in these elements hav-
ing a greater potential crop producing
value than that of the potash, so that
the total loss is amounting to not less
than $10,000,000 annually.
Window For a Dairy Barn.
A practical dairy barn window is
made by placing the hinges at the low-
er edge of the sash, as shown, and at-
taching canvas at the ends so that the
e oth will hold the sash partly open,
writes Ralph V. Crane of Ypsilanti,
Mich., in Popular Mechanics. This will
deflect the air currents upward toward
the ceiling and prevent draft on the
stock.
Farmers as Movers.
Statistics prepared under the direc-
tion of the department of commerce
show that farmers are incessantly
moving.
Replies from nearly 6,000,000 farmers
In answer to the question how long
they had resided upon their farms
showed that 52 per cent had moved
within five years. Over 1,000,000 farm -
era had moved within a year. In the
north 57 per cent bad lived upon their
farms five years or longer, in the west
44 per cent and in the south 41 per
cent. The figures for the south includ-
ed colored farmers as well as whites.
These figures are significant, in the
Opinion of the government authorities,
because they show that farmers move,
