A Medicine That Does Not Cost Anything Unless It Cures. The active medicinal ingredients of Rexall Orderlies, which are odor- less, tasteless and colorless, is an entirely new discovery. Combined with other extremely Valuable in- gredients, it forms a perfect bowel regulator, intestinal invigorator and strengthener. Recall Orderlies are eaten like candy and are notable for their agreeableness to the palate and gentleness of action. They do not cause griping or any disagreeable effect or inconvenience, Unlike other preparations for a like purpose, they do not create a habit, but instead they overcome the cause of habit acquired through the use of ordinary laxatives, cathartics and harsh physic, and permanently remove the cause of constipation or irregular bowel action.

Dougall, 523 Flora Avenue, Winnipeg, was arranging some of her doll's wash- ing on a clothes rack, beside the stove, when she fell, and her hand came in contact with the hot stove. She sus- tained a serious burn, and her screams brought her mother quickly to the spot, "I sent to the druggist for the best remedy he had for burns," she says, "and he sent back a box of Zam- Buk, He said that there was nothing to equal it. 1 applied this, and it soothed the pain so quickly that the laughed through her tears. I bound up the hand in Zam-Bolt, and each day applied Zam-Buk frequently and liberally, until the burn was quite cured. "The little one was soon able to go on with her play, and we had no trouble with her during the time the burn was being healed.'

Work That Can So Dens In Winter to. Make It Productive, Cabbage, onlona and: other grow feeders require wore manure than surb vegetables as peas or beans. idenhouse r i d opp ass and Rion manure are cold, but very rick, and should be put in large quantitieson thee pint where sou expert to plant onions, cabbage or celery. Do not manure the potato patch with hen manure. Ashes are good for the Onion bed, as they are for roost vegetables, if prop- erlyused, possibly iY being be terter the grape vines and strawberries, as these plants require large amounts of pot- ash, says a writer in Farm Progtbss. 1 have heard it Said that tofn atoes d On t needili a •t. f i zer, but I have not found tile true. Well rotted cow manure I consider the bestfor plants requiring warn). soli, tie the tomato, eggplant, okra and pepper. ,Peas and beans will require some manure, but less thnn any utber vegetables. Lima beans wilt stand considerable. fertilizing. Stable and faran manure Is better for the garden than commercial fer- tilizer, because it brings out a better mechanical condition of the soil, eu- abling it to stand both drought and excessive wet mush better when it contains leaved vegetation. In case of beans or sweet potatoes, for instance, rotted straw, which contains but little elements of fertility, is ample because it is more essential to keep the soil loose and moist than to manure exces- sively;, I break the garden in the fall and apply manure in the winter, harrow- ing it in when the ground is dry in the spring. The plat where late cabbage and celery are to be grown should be mnnured heavily and replowed late in the spring after the weeds have started. Every one should compost every available bit of manure. Build a rail pen in. the garden, and into this throw all the ashes and trash about the place that will rot and become fertilizer. Pour the wash water into it, for it has some value, The pile will be ready to scatter over the garden in the spring. There is a place for commercial fer- tilizer, top, though I use it sparingly. Two hundred pounds to the acre on the strawberry bed at blooming time will work wonders In both yield, qual- ity and color. • If your neighbor's crops are bet- ter than your own don't be too proud to discuss them with him and find out why if possible. Then strive to raise better crops. An Effective Farm Gong. Get a disk from an old disk plow - and drive a bolt through it into the top Of a post as shown in the sketch. Then bore a small hole through the handle of a hammer .and fasten it with a twenty -penny nail to the post about six inches from the top. A twelve foot post set eighteen inches into the ground Is about right. This gives you a first class serviceable farm gong. — Farm and Faxes oova. Fireside. Keeping Cabbage In Fall. Early in December turn each bead over to the north and bank the soil over the stem and base of the head, leaving merely the top exposed. Some make the mistake of turning the heads south. and the heads will be certain to get damaged, for the stern and base of the head are the most tender parts. and these will be to the north, while the .morning sun will strike 'the open head to the south when frozen and damage it, says Progressive Farmer. The Corn Knife. A good corn knife snakes the work of cutting corn easier. One with a strap for the wrist relieves the ache won- derfully. The Hum of the Hive. Economy in the use of foundation is wasteful. and it Is a poor practice to put first strips or slatters of founda- tion in the section boxes, for It is au indisputable fact that a full sheet of foundation in each section bot means not only their" ready acceptance by the bees, but also the betiding 0f straight- er combs, 13y selection and restriction 10 the matter of queens we eau improve our bees just as we can other stock, and there is always present in every apiiary some choice queen far ahead of the others which will give us most excel- lent queens for requeening. Don't keop bees unless you moan to 'give them the proper care and at- tention. if you can't do that you had better leave some one else keep the. bees and buy your honey from him. A man who knows "fill about bees" and does not believe that anything more can be gained by reading bee journals, books on bees, etc., Will soon be far behind the age. The present improved system of man- agement requires that hives should not stand too near each other. There should be et least sin feet between thein, and ten feet would be a prefer- able distance.
