Tire aeeompanying figuree represent a handy manure box which a correspondent baa been using fora nuphar of years. The upper figure to a aide view, the lower chows he box ee seen from above, It ie vory easily constructed, is S ft long, 19 lichee wide, 16 inches deep, and shaped like a @at boat, At eaoh and are handlae media unloading. It le very convenient, spending USW ttAITUEE SOX, near the etobie door where the manure is thrown into it when the stable is cleaned in the morning. A team is hitched to it when full and ib is hauled to the dumping pile and turned over, By its aid the stable and ite eurroundinge are kept neat and clean. In the lower figure at (b b b b) are the handles used lu turning andrighting it, A long olevie rune from the bottom up over the end and to this the horse ie attached, Working the Butter. No one con tell another person just bow much to work butter to have it right. Ex- perience alone can teach the operator when to stop the working procese and pronounce the butter finiehed. 'The deeired condition ie attained when the salt is thoroughly and evenly incorporated and the butter euffr- oiently dry. All the brine cannot be worked out or pressed out without injury to the grain. A moderate amount ie allow- able in the &nielted product, yet this amount should not be more than is unavoid- able. Butter worked dry will be over- worked every time. In using a lever butter -worker, ora ladle and bowl, a pressing motion is better than one which cuts right down through the butter. As far as possible, keep the lever of the ladle on top of the mass, using gentle force to press out the brine and compact the butter. Turn and re -turn, fold over and over, but avoid making eliding motions with the ladle, which tend to break the granules and eo injure the texture. Insufficient working is shown by the bute k is byexcess brin- inter beingstreaked, alsoce of the tb on other packae in which it is packed. Crumbly butter ie sometimes caused by insufficient working ; also by the cream or butter becoming frozen. In summer, danger of injury to the grain arises from the butter being soft. It lacks body to resist the ladle, hence the granules are easily broken and the butter becomes spoiled. In winter there is no danger of this unless the oream is made too warm at churning, A good thermometer should always be used and the cream never allowed to go beyond 68 °. With average cows this will bring the butter too soft, perhope, but with ,jerseys or Guernseys it will not. The working of butter decides to a great extent what the finished product will be. With proper care of milk and cream, with proper temperature and salting it still re- mainepossible to spoil the butter by impro. per working. It is better to work it too title than too much. Grass, Grain and Stock Together. The growing of grass and grain and the feeding of them out to stock on the farm go well together. It is an item to grow the largest crops of grain and grass and to market them eo as to receive the most for them. The manure from the stook ie need- ed to keep up the fertility of the Boil in order to grow good crops, and selling the crepe in a more concentrated form of meat, milk,butter and wool secures a better pride than if cold in market whole, Both manure for fertilizing and better prices for the grain and grass ora beet be secured by feed- ing what is grown to good growthy animale until they are ready for market and then selling. It hae been said over and over the larger the growth and yield of the crops the more stock it is possible to keep and feed and the more stock fed the more manure secured and the more manure the richer.the Boil and the better the orops. But nearly every farmer of experience knows thoteven vvith best of management it is difficult - if nut impossible to save a sufficient amount of manure Froin the stock that can be fed with what is grown on the average farm to keep up the fertility, It can be made the prinoipal dependence, but in a majority of caeee if the land is built up,green manuring, using commercial fertilizers, or purchasing feed eo as to keep a larger number of stock will be necessary. The growing of a variety of crops and the feeding out to different kinds of stock not only offers a better opportunity to keep up the fertility of the farm and [secure better prices for the products but it ma. terially lessens the risk of failure and gives a more steady income, while what ie grown can always be used to a better advantage and the stock be fed and pre. pared for market at a lase cost. Treatment of Seed Oats. It is now considered as a settled fact that the smut of oats may be absolutely prevented by treating the seed according to the Jensen plan. This is simply to im- merse the seed cats in hot water for a short time, by which every smut spore ie destroyed and a crop free from disease is insured. No expense ie involved, and but slight labor. A11 that is to be done is to soak the Beed oats about ten minutes in water at a temperature of nearly 135 de- grees—not much more or less—and then spread them where they con drain and dry ae rapidly as possible. To the above should be appended the caution to farmers not to trust to guess- work in using the Jensen method. Water at a temperature below 130 degrees does not destroy all emut spores, and soaking longer than five minutes above 140 or 145 degrees injures the seed. A reliable ther- mometer should be plunged in the water and the temperature regulated by it to about 136 degrees, ac may be easily done by adding hot or cold water, Care of Seed Potatoes, Toward spring, which the weather gets warm, the potatoee will begin to throw out sprouts. We should try to prevent this. We can do so if we have plenty of room in the cellar, and this we shall in all probabil• ity have et that season, as much of the crop will likely have been.diepoeed of, The boxer should then be placed one tier deep en the cellaro The ll or, h light o ou g h.ld then be lot in, and the contents of eaoh box turned into the Other about 94e0 every week et first, and oftener when the weather gets *till warmer, The potatoes thea handled will shrivel and disooler, but the aproute will not become long, and when the peed le planted growth will be immediate where OM weather and soil are suitable. Changing the Bait. "°image your bait 1" This tarso bit Of advioe given by an old fishermen to a lees experienced angler, ie euggeetive.

The attack often begins in the morning, upon awakening, after a night of restlessness or heavy slleep; though it is especially wont to occur in connection with emotional disturbances, such as excitement, fright or mental strain. The pain is usually localized, being in one or the other, more frequently the left eido of the head. It is generally accompanied by great disturbance of the stomach, when light pains the eyes ; noises otherwise unnoticed inflict punishment; odors excite nausea. From the fact that people with strong nerves are never troubled with Sick Headache, it is generally conceded by the most eminent phy. sioiane that it is dependent upon weak nerves or nervous debility, and can only bo permanently 'cured by strengthening the nervous system, The Great South American Nor. vine Tonic is the only remedy mann. faotured whioh ie prepared especially and expressly for the nerves. It acts directly on the nerve centres at the base of the brain, correcting any derangement there may be, greatly increasing the supply of nervous energy or nerve force, giving great 1' tone to the whole body, and thereby enabling a system subject to siok Headache to withstand future attacks. It gives relief in one day and speedily effects a permanent cure. Mrs. Isabella B. Graham, of Friendswood, Indiana, writes: "For a number of years I have suffered intensely with Nervous and • Sick Headache ; had hot flashes, was sleepless and became despondent. Dr. Faris, of Bloomington, Indiana, spoke so highly of South American Nervine that I was induced to buy 4 bottle. That purchase led to a few others, and now I sleep soundly, feel buoyant, strong and vigorous. I would not be back in the oondition I was in when I began taking this medicine for any sum you could name." Mrs. J. H. Prouty, of La Grange, Indiana, writes: "Your South Amer. ioan Nervine worked a marvellous Dire with me last year. I began taking it last April about the 20th.. The first week I madea gain of 16 lbs. and from that time on I made a steady gain until I reached my normal weight, making in all a total gain of 80 lbs. After talcing it three or four months I found myself a well woman." A, DEAVRAN Wholesale and ]Retail Agent for RruSsels
