Sufferers from ailments that have af­ flicted iu regular succession one genera­ tion after another of their family are, as a rule, inclined to submit to them as in­ evitable. The case which follows proves that such hereditary difficulties are not beyond the reach of curative forces and should inspire hopefulness and a readi­ ness to try remedies that have effected signal cures, such as that whieh is hare given. Mrs. Elizabeth Rannells, of No. 408 East Seventh street, Newton, Kansas, gives the following account of her ail­ ment and her cure: "For two years I suffered from a trying nervousness in my lower limbs from my knees down, as my mother and my grandmother had suffered before me. The situation was for many years ac­ cepted as unavoidable because heredi­ tary. But about two years ago,when my son was realizing benefit from the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, I thought there might possibly be some good iu them for me. My trouble had then become so Bericus as to make it difficult for me to Bleep. I often had to walk the floor in restlessness the whole night. After tak­ ing some six boxes the twitching disap­ peared and I ceased to use the remedy. I evidently stopped a little too soon for nervousness came back after a month or so and I used the pills again for a short time. Relief came at once and 6ince I stopped using them the second time I have been free from any return of the twitchiugs or from anyinterference with my sleep." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have cured the worst cases of bloodlessness, indiges­ tion, influenza, headaches, lumbago, sci­ atica, neuralgia, nervousness, spinal weakness and the special ailments of girls and women.

The stomach serves as a churn in which to agitate, work up and disintegrate our food as it is being digested. If it be weak, sluggish and foul the result will be torpid, sluggish liver and bad, impure blood. The ingredients of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery are just such as beet serve to correct and cure all such de­ rangements. It is made up without a drop of alcohol in its composition; chem­ ically pure, triple-refined glycerine being used instead of the commonly employ* alcohol. Now this glycerine is of itself . valuable medicine, instead of a deleteri­ ous agent like alcohol, especially in the cure of weak stomach, dyspepsia and the various forms of indigestion. Prof. Finley Elllngwood, M. D., of Bennett Medical College, Chicago, says of it: "In dyspepsia it serves an excellent pur­ pose. • » • It is one of the best manufact­ ured products of the present time in its action upon enfeebled, disordered stomachs; especially if there is ulceration or catarrhal gastritis (catarrhal inflammat ion of stomach), it Is a most efficient preparation. Glycerine -t will relieve many cases of pyrosis (heartburn) and excessive srastric acidity. It is useful In chronic intestinal dyspepsia, especially the flatulent variety, and In certain forms of chronic constipation, stimulating the secre­ tory and excretory functions of the Intestinal glands." When combined, in just the right propor­ tions, with Golden Seal root, Stone root, Black Cherry bark. Queen's root, Blood- root and Mandrake root, or the extracts of these, as in Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, there can bo no doubt of its great efficacy in the cure of all stomach, fiver and intestinal disorders and derange­ ments. These several ingredients have the strongest endorsement in all such cases of such eminent medical leaders as Prof. R. Bartholow. M. D..of Jefferson Med­ ical College, Chicago; Prof. Hobart A. Hare. M. D.. of Medical Department. University of Pa.; Prof. Laurence Johnson, M. D., Medical Department, University of New Yorki Prof. Edwin M. Hale. M. D.. Hahnemann Medical College.Chicago: Prof. John M. Scudder, M. D. ind I'rof. John M. I>., Authors of the American Dispensatory, and scores of others among the leading medical men of our land.

Some time ago in the Farmers' Re- view an article appeared from a cor­ respondent who stated that by col­ lecting the corn always from the same Joint the seed would produce corn, bearing ears of conj mostly upon that joint We think that this would be hard to demonstrate. A quality in plants and animals is not so easily fixed as this, especially when it is a matter of selecting rather than of breeding. In the animal world we can fix a quality quite readily because we can use both selecting and breedtag to help out in the matter. But with a thing like the corn plant, where breed­ ing is not resorted to to a consider­ able extent, but where all the prog­ ress must be made through merely selecting, it will take a long lapse of time and many generations of plant life to firmly fl* a single quality. If a sport should appear in the com plant &nd a new variety spring into exist­ ence, each stalk of which would pro­ duce ears only on a certain joint, we might then in a short time breed up a variety having that characteristic. But sports that are prepotent are ex­ ceedingly rare. If a man must depend upon the mere process of selecting he must expect to see his results come but slowly. We think It is too much to assume that a man by selecting corn for a few years from the same joint can produce a seed that he can put upon the market with the assur­ ances to the public that he can give them a seed that will reproduce its like in this respect One of the great laws of nature is the constant varia­ tion within a certain limit and this Is one of the factors that makes prog­ ress possible. This quality is so strong in all plants that it requires very great efforts to fix a single qual­ ity. There is, however, much pleasure in working along this line and seeing what can be done. A man can either* prove one thing or the other it/he works at it long enough. The danger is that men will jump at conclusions and publish to the world what they believe are results when their experi­ ences have been results of combina­ tions of influences not enumerated.-- Farmers'Review. Destroying Weeds. In this locality, as is the cass In every other, we have weeds and find them very troublesome in the corn field. The tool most effective in'keep­ ing down weeds is the shovel culti­ vator. This is usually very effective if the first plowing is done in time and well done. After that, weeds will not bother very much, and the cultivator can be kept going frequently enough to prevent the weeds from starting. But if the first cultivation is not done till long after the weeds have become rooted and well-developed, there will be trouble all through the season. Weeds will have grown up so close to the corn that they cannot be reached well by the cultivator, and the disturb­ ing of the earth at this time will not be sufficient to destroy them, as would be the case if the cultivation had been done just as the weed seeds were germinating. About the worst weed here, is the milk-weed, which grows in the small .corn fields. The only remedy we have been able to discover is to pull these up by hand. There is a state law regarding weeds, but It is entirely inoperative in this locality. --J. E. Edwards, Cass Co., 111., in Farmers' Review. Sorghum and Corn as SHage. J&edhead sorghum and Virginia en­ silage corn can be combined satisfac­ torily for the production of silage. They are best grown in three-foot rows. The crop required 114 days to mature and gave an average yield of 10.4 tons, at a cost of $1.85. The lowest cost was S1.41. and the highest $2.08. Combin lug these crops makes a better quality of silage, increases the yield and re­ duces the cost per ton, as compared with corn alone.--Tennessee Station. Feeding Meat and Cooked Food. My experience in feeding meat In any form to poultry is quite limited. In summer I give as good as unlimited range to my fowls, which does away with the necessity for such feed. While I have faith in the balanced ration theories, yet I believe if an "old hen" has the opportunity she will balance her rations better than her owner. I have never fed blood meal, and my experience in feeding commercial meat meals has been confined to beef meal, fed late in fall, winter and spring. I am sure it added materially to the general health and vigor of the fowls and of course increased the egg production. The cost of the meal reduces its general use. It is too high in price to assure its general use. It is almost Impossible to convince any one that feeds his flock and keeps them up to date on feed and care, that the meal pays sufficiently to justify the price charged, $2, $2.50 and $3 per 100. I feed corn in the evening, cutting up In short pieces (in cutting a great deal shells), and throwing to the fowls in litter, so as to enable them to do as much work as possible to get it. The morning meal is a mash of bran, with possibly and usually some ground oats and barley, seasoned with a little salt and occasionally black or red pen- per. At noon I feed them on oats, barley and wheat mixed, and for change sometimes feed these separate­ ly. In the line of cooked foods I use a 50-gallon cooker, heating water and scalding the bran mash, or cooking in the cooker feed composed of wheat, barley and oats ground together, and sometimes the whole grains unground, and this last mode pleases me the best Without actual test I believe It does the biddy the most good.--T. J. Mawhorter, Noble Co, Ind., in Farm- ers^RevieW: Continually outcrossing with the wild turkeys keeps our domestic tur­ keys up to standard in vitality, but it also keeps up their inherited tendency to warn Foundation of th« New Poultry Houaii After building a number of poultry houses one has certain important facta impressed upon him. One of these that comes home with a good deal of force to the writer the matter of foundation. If he builds another poul­ try house he will see that the founda­ tion is perfect and that it will be more than strong enough. A poultry hctise that is not properly built in this re­ spect will he « nuisance la several ways. It is customary to build poultry houses on slopes where it can be done, and that is proper, as it gives good drainage. Eut in case the foundation proves to be poor and needs to he supported it will generally be found very difficult to do anything without raising the house by means of jack screws. The writer has had a very vexatious task of this kind. The trou­ ble is that one end of the house is Set so close to the ground that one cannot get under it or even get at the parts that need to be supported. When a poultry house has to be erected that is twelve feet or more wide there should be a row of sup­ ports running the length of the house under the very middle. Almost all amateurs make the mistake of sup­ porting the house only on the sides and ends. The twelve-foot joists, even though they be six inches deep and two thick, have a very great amount of vibration and it Is unpleasant to walk over a floor laid on such joists. But if the time ever Omes that the house has to be used fsr another pur­ pose than poultry keeping, this kind of a floor will be found to be unendur­ able. This possibility should be borne in mind, for numerous poultry houses become transformed in time into houses for other purposes, especially if they are of good else. A fault that is very noticeable In the building of most of the houses .used by our poultry Is that they are Bjerely set on posts stuck in the ground for perhaps two feet In a few years some of these posts rot and others get a lean on them out of plumb due to the ground on one side of the poultry house being softer than on the other side. The rain gets into the holes and the soil ithere becomes softer than at any other point and this does not improve as the years go by. Settling goes on year after year. I have in mind a poultry house that cost nearly a hundred dollars. It was set on cedar posts and the posts are badly rotted now in spite of the fact that cedar Is supposed to be re- slstent to rot Some of the cedar posts have also got out of plumb, and the house has moved over several Inches to accommodate the posts. What the end will be nobody knows. Build the foundations strong in the first place. If the building is to rest on supports of any kind dig deep holes in the ground and put in brick or stone duly cemented. Have a big timber running the length of the building and also resting on the same kind of piers. This will cost a little more than the posts, but it will be more satisfactory, and years afterward the owner will be glad that he ao invested the money that the good foun­ dations cost Cost of Transporting Fowls. Late In the fall or early in the winter Is the best time for the farmer to buy poultry to replenish his stock or to give him a high quality of breeders. These should be mated early In February. I think it is better for him to buy male birds, but he can do much by buying both kinds. He need not be afraid to buy birds at a con­ siderable distance from him, as they can be shipped long distances without deterioration. The cost of shipping birds is not great when we consider the bulk of the bird and the trouble any living thing is to the transporta­ tion companies. I shipped one bird to Cripple Creek, CoL, for $1.25, cost of transportation. On one shipped to Los Angeles the cost of transportation was $1.50. I have shipped several to Kansas at the rate of 80 cents each. I find that birds can be shipped in ^winter without being in danger of taking cold, if they are boxed right Whether the birds are taken care of on the railroads is a thing we cannot know, as that depends on the em­ ployes. Some are careful of such things ajjd some are not. Some farm­ ers are afraid to buy from flocks at a distance because they are afraiu of roup and other contagious diseases, can only say to that, that it is neces­ sary to deal with a reputable dealer, and that is true whether he lives near­ by or far away. The only way that a farmer can know that he is getting good birds and not scrubs when he buys poultry is to educate himself along the line of poultry, Judging all he buys by a book called, the Ameri­ can Standard of Perfection, which de­ scribes all the classes of poultry now in general use, with the exception of a few breeds brought out recently, which the American Association of Poultry Raisers do not yet admit as standard breeds. If a man pays for a first-class bird and when it arrives finds it is not what he paid for, the remedy Is /or him to ship It back at once.--Marcian P. Seavey, Cook Co., 111. RAISED FROM A DEATH BED. CHRISTMAS EVE tN THE DESERT. Incubator in Cold Weather. Bekm I give my methods of Incuba­ tion. . I mate my birds in January and begin to set the eggs some time in Feb­ ruary. Frequently I begin about the 15th. I find the fowls hatched in March and April are the best winter layers and also make the best show birds the coming winter. They do not need to be pushed forward by high feeding as do those that are hatched later in the spring. I place 15 eggs under each hen. But ,we use only a few hens, so I have two Incubators. Each of these holds 150 eggs. I only start one at a time and then ten days after­ wards start the other and I keep them going. That gives me a hatch every ten days. If I have a hen that wants to set, I set her in the basement if the weather is cold.--C. W. Brehn, Clay Co- Neb. Mir. Pitts, Once Pronounced Incurable, Has Been Well Three Years. E. E.

Foster-Mllburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y, Jerome's Resemblance to Clock. ; District Attorney Jerome of New fork is very popular around Lakeville, near Winsted, Conn., where he has a summer home. Residents of that lo­ cality rather resent the sarcastic re­ marks of certain newspapers which occasionally poke fun at him for "making clocks" as a recreation when he visits Lakevilie. One of Mr. Jer­ ome's admirers says: "Perhaps they talk that way because he generally 'strikes' when the hour comes. In any case his 'bands' always point in the right direction, he hasn't any 'wheels' In his head, his 'face' Is set against graft and he doesn't go on tick' when he travels on the railroad." Every housekeeper should know that If they will buy Defiance Cold Water Starch for laundry use they will save not only time, because it never sticks to the iron, but because each package contains 16 oz.--one full pound--while all other Cold Water Starches are put up in %-pound packages, and the price is the same, 10 cents. Then again because Defiance Starch is free from all Injurious chemicals. If your grocer trieB to sell you a 12-oz. package it is because he has a stock on hand which he wishes to dispose of before he puts In Defiance. He knows that Defiance Starch has printed on every package in large letters and figures "16 07.S." Demand Defiance and save much time and money and the annoy­ ance of the iron sticking.

The edge of Death Valley, where annually many treasure hunters have perished in their search for gold, was the scene of one of the most pleasing incidents in the initial trip of the Los Angeles Limited. The shadows of night had fallen upon the desert when that point was reached on the home­ ward run, and the thoughts of most of the eastern newspaper representatives in the brilliantly illumined train were centered upon their far-away homes, wondering what the little ones were doing--probably yearning to be with them. While they were thus engross­ ed Santa Claus was busily engaged planning a surprise; and a delightful surprise it proved to be. When everything was ready the guests of the Union Pacific Railroad Company were called into their spe­ cial car, a state-room door swung back on its hinges, and there stood reveal­ ed a Christmas tree, glittering with tinsel and filled with presentst one or more for each guest. As his name was called each stepped forward and was handed a pretty souvenir, to which was added a large glass object encasing a generous sample of Cali­ fornia's justly famed vintage: This delightful little incident relieved such mental tension as had existed, for it was a manifestation of the true Christ­ mas spirit that was appreciated as much as it had been unexpected. It was one of the touches of "nature that make the whole world kin," for it served to bring still closer together the entertainers and the entertained on the initial trip of the Los Angeles Limited. For this reason, grewsome as its reputation is. Death Valley will always be associated with a pleasant memory in the minds of the news­ paper representatives.--"Telegraph Gazette," Pittsburg.

How often dowe hear the expres­ sion, "I am so ner­ vous, it seems as if should fly;" or, "Don't speak to .me." Little things rannoy you and make you irritable; you can't sleep, you are unable to quietly and calmly perform your daily tasks or care for your children. The relation of the nerves and ffen- erative organs ilk woman is so close that nine-tenths of the nervous pros­ tration, nervous debility, the blues, sleeplessness and nervous irritability arise from some derangement of the organism which makes her a woman. Fits of depression or restlessness and irritability ; spirits easily affected, so that one minute she laughs, the next minute weeps; pain in the abdominal region and between the shoulders; loss of voice; nervous dyspepsia; a tendency to cry at the least provoca­ tion--all these point to nervous pros­ tration. .

This could only be done where the crops are big, the prices good, and the land inexpensive. Precisely these three conditions exist in the Southwest. Good rich land can be bought for « small part of what land costs in your locality. Th is land will yield 50 bushels of corn to the acre, 30 bushels of wheat, 90 bushels of oats, as a regular thing. The average prices of grains sold by farmers in the Southwest during the past five years was higher than the prices secured by farmers in your neighborhood. Under such favorable conditions, the South* west farmer is bound to prosper. Now Is your opportunity to exchange your few acres at home for e bignt and more productive farm in the Southwest.
