I have appendicitis and one tells me I must be operated en. Can I be cured without an operation?? It pains me only at odd times and generally at night. I drink 9 or 19 cups of tea the day, besides about as much wa- ter. I hate also varicose veins.) And I am constipated all the time. ; cordingly. fn. Answer—Cold hands (and feet) with or without sweating, if persist- ing several months, are due either to nervous fatigue (neurasthenia), ane - min (poor blood), hemorrhage, chronic digestive disturbances, rheumatism,, gout, or heart or lung affections that may interfere with the right circula- tion of the blood. ,Maty nervous pee-; p10 get cold eetramities suddenly and temporarily by reason of excitement or anxiety or shock. There are those' who will complain of cold extremities, which are nevertheless Warm to the touch of another person. Doctors call this panasthesia, and it is a ner- vous condition. Your doctor should examine as to which of these causes' obtnins in your case and proceed ac • - 1 On Winter Nights. Don't close your window top nor 1 bottom at night because you are cold,• •but learn to keep Warm with it open.. First arrange your room se that you do not sleep in a direct draught, but if that is inrpos,ible, a `imple device may be used. Cut a h$vy piece of cotton six • inches longer than the width e:f the window frame and eigh teen inches wide. Tack it along its lower edge to the window sill and hook the upper earners to the window frame. The window may then he opened wide, but the current of air will be directed upwards. In the day time, the shield may be unhooked and dropped. Equally important is the bed. A thick mattress and pad should be suf- ficient ufficient under the sleeper, but if the mattress is thin, place heavy wrap-. ping paper under it, Flannelette sheets may be used in preference to rattan, The lighter the top cover the better. If down or lath's wool are too expensive, a quilt made of two layers of flannelette with an interlin- ing of newspapers will prove an ex- eehlent covering over the blanket,. For the outdoor sleeper a Klondyke bed or 0. sleeping bag is necessary. The Iilondyke bed is made by tucking the blankets under the mattress -pad at foot and sides, and binding the whole securely by tucking the top covering twelve inches under the mat- trese at foot and sides. For stormy weather a horse blanket or quilt with a canvas cover makes an excellent protection. Sleeping bags may be • bought at any department store, but a satisfactory one may be made at home from a large quilt or blanket, or. from a quilt made from flannelette with newspaper interlining. The bed should be heated by hot water bags or hot water bottles before entering. it, and the covering must not be so, tight that the feet are uncomfortable. Place two pillows in the form of a 'V, allowing the head to rest in the angle. The pillows will protect the shoulders., Do not pull the covers over the head., Sleeping helmets may be bought, but a good imitation can be made from a wide toboggan cap pulled out to its double length. Open one end, allow- ing the cap to pull down over the ]read, and cut an opening Large enough for the eyes, nose and mouth.

I keep my tray filled with hatchable eggs by testing them before putting them in the machine. There are many im- perfections on the inside of the shells,' and in the egg itself, which are int - possible to detect without the m eni- fying lens. I test again in thirty-six hours,taking out all infertile eggs be- fore they are injured, I try to keep my lamp clean and well trimmed, and .use the very beet oil. I keep the temperature at from 102 degrees to 103 degrees the first two weeks. from .103 degrees to 104 degrees the last week, and never exceed 10.4 degrees at, any time. No moisture is used, except that whieh the incubator pro- vides, until the hatch is well advanced.

They throw off a poisonous gas which is responsible for many chicks being dead in the shell at hatching time. This also causes bowel trouble, so common with incubator chicks, for which the in- cubator is not to blame. I till every vacancy made by testing nut unhatehable eggs, by setting a couple of hens at the same time I set the incubator, to draw from when eggs are needed; or, when I have as many its 500 eggs set, I fill a small machine just to draw from. At hatching time, I take the chicks out every hour or so, covering then lightly, but never allowing them to get hot enough to sweat, which is al- ways fatal. I am very careful about letting cold air into the incubator, as it chills the unhatched chicks, t In about forty-eight hours I feed cracker -crumbs or bread -crumbs, plac- ing bran, cold Water and grit before then) all the time, infertile eggs In the tray do not poison the toile but they are eery mis- leading, Since they are colder than other eggs, they will bring down the mercury when the thermometer touches them, MAKING BUTCHERING EASIER .

What would be the best seed to •sow in the spring to produce 0 small crop of hay next year? Answer; -•-1. In order to control the attach of crows 011 young growing corn, it is well to dip the corn in tar, by putting it in a kettle and then ap- plying the tar to the con, keeping the corn stirred. Just enough should he used to make a very thin covering of tar over each kernel. A table- spoonful should be sufficient to treat six or eight quarts of seed corn.

This weed yields readily where care is taken to prevent its seeding., 3. Probably the h t y .can do t. ;, a htr' crap firm spring sown seed, would be to sow a mixture of peas and oats, a bushel of each to the acre, These should be cut just before the oats begin to turn color, at which time the pea pods will be fairly well filled, and the mixture should make nutritious hay. Reader:—I wish to plant an acre in strawberries in the spring. Can you give me advice regarding cultivation as this work is new to me. Soil is good clay loans. Answer:—In preparing a straw- berry patch next spring, the ground should be worked as early as possible, and the plants set in rotes three to four -feet apart, and from -one to two feet apart in the rows. Successful strawberry growers apply from 300 to 000 lbs. of fertilizer to the acre, in prepdring a suitable bed for the? strawberry plants. This can be sown broadcast over the ground and work. I ed -in by carefully harrowing or rale- ing the ground. Fertilizer, on a fairly rich clay loam soil, should analyse about 2 to 3 per cent. ammonia and 8 to 12 per cent available phosphoric acid, and possibly 1 per cent. of pot- ash. During the first season the blossoming stalk should be pinched off and the runners should be trained along the row, not spreading more- Less ore than tt foot wide on either' side: Our- ing the first season the strawberries should be frequently worked, rather deep at first, but shallower As the sea- son advances, rarely exceeding a depth of 21/ inches. After the ground has frozen it is good prerace to cover the plants with-strav,' or outer rnulrh which can be removed in the spring. - Will you give me parti- culars for trentinted of. burley for smut? 2. If I sow sweet edover with A nurse crop next spring, how long will the plants last? It is a biennial, I knew, but does planting with a nurse crop marks a difference? 3. S1tonlc1 a wooden silo built of yellow pine be painted on the inside as well as the outside? Is it necessary that 8ilea wkth cement floors have a hole left in the centre for drainage? Answer: -1. In order to treat bru'- ley to control smut, talcs a l,arrel lidding about GO gallons of water. Add one pint of formalin to approxim- ately 40 gallons of water. Mix this thoroughly, then dip the bag of barley seed into this mixture until it is cum. pletely submerged. Raise the b:tg until it has drained out and then re: submerge. Afterwards- lift the bag up so that the solution drains back into the barrel and empty the sack onto a clean floor, covering the bar- ley so treated with sacks or covers. Leave these en over night so as to keep the :formalin gas in among the kernels as much as possible. In the morning remove the bags and the gars will quickly escape. 2. If sweet clover is solve with care and the ground is well prepared Ariel rich, it will last for several years. Planting it with a nurse crop makes no difference as to the longevity of the clover plants. 3, Painting the inside et the silo will. tend to preserve the wood, This Painting is not as necessary as that of the outside, since the outside paint- ing protects the silo from weathering. It is good practice to have A hole at the bottom of the cement floor silo. This hale should lead off into a chain, but of cnurse should be closed before the silo is filed. Ager wi: a air will get roto the silage by this avenue and destroy much of it. The drain at the bottom of the silo will allow thor- ough cleaning out of the silo. Less Grain For Live Sock. It is time to do away with extrava- gance in feeding grain to stock. The fact that grain is commanding enor- mous prices is sufficient reascn why its use should be limited. Profitable production of meat and economical wintering of breeding animals with- out the necessity of a large amount 1 of grain in the ration, is an added reason why its use should be curtailed. • In the dairy barn, roots, or forage crops such as alfalfa, clover, soy - beats and cow -peas, mti1 partly take the place of grain. The best feed to use as 0 partial substitute for grain is ;silage. For all practical purposes, a ;balanced ration for an average cow giving fifteen to eighteen pounds of milk is about fourteen pounds of al- falfa hay and thirty-five pounds of ' corn silage. No grain is necessary for that production. A pound of cot - should p p t n• air -slaked lune, mixed about equal cMote thor- be done before the grinding, as ; parts.

A cow producing more than eighteen pounds of mills will need grain, the amount depending on the quantity of milk. In the feed lots the most economical gains on steers and lambs are secured when silage and alfalfa or clover hay are used largely in the ration. Swine being fitted for market can not con- sume any large amount of roughage; but brood sows relish alfalfa hay, and its use insures strong, healthy litters, Fillies i, and weanling colts utilize alfalfa bay advantageously, while mares in foal may be wintered of that ration alone. Breeding ewes that en- ter the winter in good shape can be carried until lambing time without gram, provided they have a good sup- ply of well -cured alfalfa or clover hay and some silage for succulence. It , is imperative to feed neither moldy ' silage, nor silage made from corn cut too green.

I will eventually be compelled to re- stock at prices as high, or higher than note existing, Corti is not absolutely essential for ; pork, and other feeds may be profit- ably substituted for corn. Their use must be determined by their avail- ability, cost per pound and relative' feeding value. Crushed oats can be substituted for corn to the extent of two-thirds of the ration, when tate cost per pound is two-fifths less than that of corn. Barley will take the piaci i of corn altogether when the cost is the ; same per pound. Rye, at nine -tenths the cost of corn, and frosted wheat at the same price, will take the Ilac:..1- corn. When grotnd and fed as a I meal, the grain sorghums will displace' cell in the ration if a trifle lower is price. The same is true of millet :hen one-fourth cheaper, hominy ,feed t • hen one and one-seventh the price of corn, and wheat shorts when one and one-tenth the price of corn per pcuntl Millet cart not be fed alone,, but with a protein supplement. Rice bran can b, used when one-tenth cheaper than corn, no protein being needed. Barley feed, which has about the same feed- ing value as a mixture of wheat bran and shorts, can replace corn -meal when costing the same.
