Mr. Joseph Leland, Alma, N.W.T., recommends then to all kidney trouble sufferers, when he says: ---I was troubled with dull head- aches, had frightful dreams, tensible pains in my legs and a frequent desire to urinate. Noticing DOAN'S KIDNEY PILLS recommended for just such annoy- ances as mine, it occurred to me to give them a trial, so I procured a box of them, and was very much surprised at the effectual cure they made. I take a great deal of pleasure in. recommending them to all kidney trouble sufferers. Price 50e. per box, or 3 for $1.25; all Sealers or The Doan Kidney Pill Col (Toronto, Ont.

Some Good Advice. to Readars of the Times. .A. weak stomach and its resulting ills ara not natural. With proper care and the use of Mi•o•na stomach tablets, the very worst case of indigestion or stom- ach trouble can be comp-etely cured. It is a sin to deprive oneself of enjoy. moat in life, and become a burden to others through indigestion, The backaches, distress after eating, lose of appetite, gulping up of undigest- ed food and gases are not natural. Mi- o-na stomaoh tablets used for a few days before meals will so strengthen the di- gestive organs that you can eat any- thing you want without fear of distress or resulting sickness. Tho directions for taking Mi.o-na em- phasize the difference between this remedy and the ordinary medicine that is given for indigestion. Mi-o•na is to be used before meals, strengthening the digestive system for the food which is to be eaten, while the ordinary remedy is taken after meals, and simply digests the food without strengthening the stomach.; Wo absolutely agree that your money will be refunded should you buy a 59 - cent box of Mi-o•na stomach tablets and not be satisfied with the results. Mi•o- na is sold by druggists everywhere, or will be sent by mail on receipt of price, Write today for a free sample pack- age, and also give ns your symptoms, and one of the best known stomach specialists will give your case his care• I ful and personal attention without charge.

An indication of the growing popu- larity of soft cheeses is the large deb mend for the varieties sold under vari- ous brands as Neufchatel and cream cheese. The basis for most of these is the common "cottage" or "Dutch" cheese, and many of them are merely sweet or sour curd put in an attractive and appetizing form. The manufacture of these varieties is comparatively ple, with practically no danger of lose. They are sold and eaten when fresh. Further, they will yield a larger amount of salable cheese from the same quantity of milk than other varie eties, and they bring prices almost ars high as the best imported cheese. Very naturally these cheeses form the basis of a profltaeble industry. But here, too, we find that the common Canadian product is different from tba cheese in Europe going under the same name. The Neufchatel cheese of Eu- rope is a ripened cheese, but the cheese going by this name in Canada is usually unripened curd with an at- tractive ttractive wrapping. Some of these pro- ducts, however, are highly flavored and compete favorably with certain ripened types that are imported, All of them command a far higher price than the ordinary hard cheese. High Profit In Soft Cheese. It is certain, therefore, that there is an established and rapidly growing market for the best types of soft cheese. The profit in the manufacture of the hard types of cheese is exceed- ingly xceedingly small both to the factory and to the producer of milk, but the prices o! the highest class of soft cheese (40 cents or more per pound) are so much higher than the prices of the hard cheeses that the introduction of their manufacture should be a great benefit to the dairymen. The fact that soft cheese will not keep very long gives an especial ad- vantage to the domestic over the for- eign producers if the products can be made of equal merit. For such perish- able products there is a great advan- tage in an intimate relation between the maker and the consumer. Factories near enough to a large city to supply the demand with cheese al- ways ripened to exactly the prime con- dition should easily be able to control their home market if they can once control their product. It seems possi- ble that there will be an advantage nearer the small cities, at least, in their production by individual dairy- men who could dispose of their own product in a restricted market. Care of Grafts. Grafts which were set last spring should receive immediate attention There are likely to be suckers starting from the old branches below the scions, and these should be removed, or they will rob the new growth. The scions APPLE GRAFT NEEDS PRUNINQ. also are likely to make a branehy or irregular growth, and this can be pre- vented to a very large extent by snit able pruning or pinching, says Country Gentleman, in which the, accompany= Mg illustration shows a graft after two years' growing which now re, quires considerable pruning to bring It into proper condition. To Prevent Cows Sucking Themselves. Will you please tell me in your paper some way to stop a cow from sucking herself, and oblige, asks P. H. of the American Agriculturist, which hnswers : There are many devices to prevent cows from sucking themselves. A spiked halter is one Of them. The spikes should not be over 2 inches long. They are best made of wrought nails; but a good wire nail with a flat head will suffice. The nails may be placed in an iron vise and the heads flat- tened as much as possible. They are then driven into a piece of thick leath- er, and secured by sewing or riveting it upon another piece of leather, as shown in the cut. An old halter can be used to good advantage. First drive the spikes in the nose piece as desired; then sew or rivet a piece of leather oyer the heads of the nails. If it is not convenient to sacrifice the halter, drive the nails through an old piece of leather and fasten it temporarily on the halter. • To Cure Scaly Leg. Scaly leg is a filth disease, if it can be called a disease, it being caused by a tiny mite which burrows under the scales of the legs and toes. It lives and breeds there. The remedy is very simple and 'easy. It is only necessary to grease the legs with any kind of grease. An ointment of a third kern. Bene oil and two-thirds lard is easily applied, and if well rubbed on and in half a dozen times a couple of days apart should kill the mites, and the scales will come off. Don't pull off the scales that have become large. That will hurt the birds, something as pull- ing off your finger nails would hurt you. Killing Goldenrod. Years ago we bought a farm that had one field so thickly covered with this weed that ten acres would not have pastured a goose, writes a correspond- ent in National Stockman, There was , absolutely no grass. We mowed It off and put about five sheep to the acre and fed enough wheat bran to keep; them in a thriving condition, and the next season a finer blue grass pasture was never seen. They had killed "every last plant." The cows won't eat it and it is fortunate that they will not, for if they did no use could be made of their milk, but sheep like it and will thrive on the young growth. Women in the Hayfields. Owing to the scarcity of male labor, women and boys are being employed in etene parts of Norfolk in the work in the hayfield:a
