TRIED EVERYTHING
WiT1ON RELIEF
Unlit 1 took "Fruit-a-tiv!es"
SABNIA, ONT., Feb. 5th, zgzo.
"I have been a sufferer for the past
2s years with Constipation, Indigestion
and Catarrh of tate Stomach. I tried
many remedies and many doctors but
derived no benefit whatever.
Finally, I read an advertisement of
'" Fruit-a-tives', I decided to give
'Fruit-a-tives' a trial and found they
did exactly what was claimed for then.
I have now taken 'Fruit-a-tives' for
some months and find that they are the
only remedy that does me good. •
I have recommended. 'Fruit -a -elves'
to a great many of my friends and I
cannot praise these fruit tablets too
highly" PAUL J. JONES
"F`rnit-a-tives-" is the only natural
cure for Constipation and Stomach
Trouble, because it is the only medicine
in the world that is made of fruit juices
end valuable tonics. Hundreds of
people have been cured, as if by a
miracle, by taking "Fruit -a -Lives", the
famous frtiit medicine.

You're a Brick.
No doubt you have often heard one
man say to another, when -he is very
much pleased: "You're a brick, old
fellow!"
Perhaps you will think it is very
queer thing to say, but I will tell you
how such a saying is said to have come
in use.
Many, many years ago a famous King
sent an ambassador to another famous
king. The ambassador was much sur-
prised to find that the king whom he
was visiting had no walls around his
city.
In those days, of course, in order to
keep out enemies, nearly every city
was surrounded by strong and high
walls. So the surprised ambassador
said to the king: "Why, you have no
walls for the city."
"We have, " said the king.
"Where, where?" asked the ambas-
sador, more surprised than ever.
The king then pointed to his large
army, which was not far away, and
said with a smile:" There are the walls
of my city. Every man you see is a
brick!"
The king meant that an enemy would
have to defeat these soldiers before
they -that is the enemy, could enter
the city. -
It appears from a discovery made by
a curious statistician that the addition
of an exti a day to the month of Feb-
ruary this year will vary the normal
conditions of life to a greater extent
than at first sight appears. It is true
that only one more day is added to the
present year, but the year 1912, when
completed, will have contained two
more working days than were counted
in 1911. Last year (1911) had365 days,
and of these 53 were Sundays and 312
yvork days. This year will have 366
days and only 52 Sundays, hence 314
working days.
Put your worries in pawn, then pro-
ceed to lose the• ticket.
The seed bed is,says Fatten Stockk
and Home, a goo
share of the crop.
The small roots nestle up to the small
soil particles and gather food from the
water that surrounds each particle.
The finer the soil the better the root
system, the more water the greater
the amount of food within reach of the
plant.

THE SHEPHERD,
Let the sheep out 1n the yards
an fine days, but never expose
them to storms.
Old ewes should bo fattened
and disposed of before they lose
any teeth. They are all right, 40
IX rule, up to six years or a little
older.
Ten tons of bay will feed 100
sheep one year. The hay should
be clover, alfalfa or mixed grass-
es, such as redtop, blue grass,
flsike clover, etc.
Sheep, like other animals, aro
creatures of habit and should
always be handled by the same
attendant, who should move
atnong them gently and give no-
tice of his approach by speaking
to the bock.
It is not wise to let the Iambs
shift for themselves with older
0 sheep.
Sheep should have salt by them
°
all the time. Beep salt in a box
o in the pen or pens and keep salt
in It all the time. If deprived of
Balt they might eat too much
when a fresh supply is given.

THE SUCCESSFUL COW.
Points That Indicate a Profitable
Dairy Animal.
The three essentials for a successful
dairy cow are vigor, capacity for food
and well developed organs for milk
production. The cow must have a good
breathing apparatus, indicated by a
large nostril, wide breast and good
width across the floor of the chest.
Good width bere and good girth indi-
cate a good heart. The eye is also in-
dicative of strength and good physical
condition, as well as temperament. A.
strong nerve system is also needed.
This may be tested by runuing the hand
along the top line of the cow in the re-
gion of tho chine to find out if this is
open, indicating that she has good pro-
tection and ample room for the spinal
cord to run in. She also must have
large organs of digestion. The good
dairy cow usually is wide in the fore-
head, the face dished between the eyes
with a strong under jaw. The head
should be of medium length. She
should have wide, open, well sprung
ribs. The hips should be wide apart
A twelve months' record of 0,578
pounds of milk and 423.09 pounds of
butter fat qualified the Brown Swiss
cow Vogel, herewith pictured, for
the registry of production of the
Brown Swiss Cattle Breeders' asso-
ciation. This equals 500.0 pounds
of butter, 85 per cent fat. Vogel is
a typical Brown Swiss cow of gen-
erous proportions, weighing about
1,500 pounds. She won first prize at
tho Illinois state fair In 100 as a
four-year-old. The official test by
the University of Illinois was made
under commercial farm conditions,
the cow running with the herd on
pasture during the summer.
and level. In the conformation'of the
thighs and legs there should be ample
udder room.
The udder itself should commence
well up and extend along the under
line until it gradually blends with it,
thus insuring the greatest capacity.
The veins should be prominent, Judi -
eating a large amount of blood circu-
lation. The milk vein which extends
from the udder along the under side of
the abdominal wall should be large,
crooked and long. These veins bear a
direct relation to the milk secreted.
In addition to these general charac-
teristics a breeder may desire distills
gulshing breed eller.leteristies and uni•
fortuity of typo in hie herd.
A happy cnmbitlftion of pedigree
and selection of the animal is what is
needed by the breeder. 'file more ani-
mals one has of }1i;..11 breeding <lttttlity
in the pedigree the less likelihood one
has of bringln,r, to: Pt her 01'0 low pro-
dnrin', chnint' ers and t:etttug as a re-

is generally conceded- that the inure
enco of parents in heredity is 50 per
cent, of the grandparents 25 per et• 't
and of the great-grandparents but 1. v'
per emit. Thus an truinral that is re-
moved six or seven generations trom
another animal under consideration
has but small influence. --Professor

tion.

dairying or wheat or corn growing. 'A
dairy herd can't be built up by grew -
