If so, why not sell, trade or beef them and get some good ones of three hundred pounds or more butter ca- pacity? It costs more to feed, milk, Marble and pay taxes on five or six than on three or four. If you do not. value your time, feed etc., but Isl". keep cows for their company and a little butter, cream and milk, '{he poor ones will answer, but. they will not build up your bank account very fast. Not making ,a business of selling milk orbutter, eh? Well what is the difference? You are keep- ing cows to furnish milk, butter and cream for your family and costs more to feed six poor cows than four good ones. Why not have the four good ones and sell four tons more hay and fifty bushels more grain that the two extra COWS Would have cat- en,~and' put fifty dollars more in the bank for a rainy day?

Health Came to Mrs. Deschesne After much Suffering. MIPS. Abraham DescheSne, wife of a well known farmer at St. Loon le Grand, Que, considers herself a lucky woman. And she has good cause as the following interview will show: “I was badly run down and very nervous. Each day brought its share of household duties, but I was too weak to perform them. My nerves were in a terrible condition. I could not sleep and the least sound would startle me. I tried several medicines and tonic wines, but none of them helped me. In fact I was continually growing worse, and beâ€" gan to despair of ever being well again. One day a friend called to see me and strongly advised me to try Dr. Williams I’ink Pills. I do- cided to do so, and it was not long before they began to help me. I gained in strength from day to day; my nerves became strong and guiet, and after using about a half dozen boxes of the pills I was fully restor- ed to my old time health and cheer- fulness. I now think Dr. Williams Pink Pills an ideal medicine for weak women.” I Dr. Williams Pink Pills feed the nerves with new, rich red blood, thus strengthening and soothing them, and curing such nerve troubles V as neuralgia, St. Vitus dance, partial paralysis and locomotor. ataxia. These pills cure also all troubles due to poor and watery blood, including the special ailments of women.

The earliest lambs bring the high- est prices. Merino sheep, should never be con- fined on low lands at night. Shipping poor sheep to market is practically giving them away. . To secure the best prices, wool should be sent to market in the best condition. For poor lands and short pasture sheep are decidedly better adapted than cattle. Sheep are not naturally so well adapted to. rough usage and picking. their own as cattle. - It takes blood to feed sheep ticks, and blood is too costly to be used in that way. Any animal. when, fed heavily should have a variety of food. This is especially so with sheep. All flocks should be graded ac- cording to age, size and conditions as far as practicable. The most unfavorable condition under whicih sheep can be grown is to subject them to feeding on low, washy pastures. .It is often the case that poor sheep are kept at a positive loss when good sheep under the same circum~ stances would return a. profit. The permanent futility of a farm is increased to a great extent ‘by the number of sheep kept on the farm. Under present conditions it is very poor economy to select a ewe for breeding that has no merit to l‘oeom« mil-king.

If you are any kind of a mechanic you can arrgnge any churns of pecdlers‘lâ€"the kind that will churn in two minutes, or get one or tw0 pounds of butter out of a gallon of milk, they are fakes. You can get the right kind of your hardâ€" ware merchant if he is upâ€"toâ€"date. Do not keep your cream standing around where it is hot or where the flies will get’into it. Keep it in the coolest place possible until you get enough for a churning. Then warm it up to about 90 degr‘ees and keep it warm until it becomes slightly sour. Reduce the temperature 'to about 63 deâ€" grees and churn. As soon as the “butter breaks and the butter glo- bules are about the size of No. 4 shot, draw off the buttermilk and put in three or four gallons of cold water; give the clhurn a dozen turns, and draw off. Fill the churn with water and wash the butter again; draw off water and salt to taste, about one ounce to the pound, not more than this. The butter must be worked in the churn. Mudh but- ter is ruined by too much working. Better get a pound butter print and some parchment paper; it is nice for your own table and keeps better. If you take the Simplus to your grocer, he will soon pay you an extra price for what you have to spare as his trade will call for your butter. Betâ€" ter still find one or two private cus- tomers who are willing to pay a good price for good butter, nll'd sell to them, getting at least five cents per pound advance over the market price for common country b‘u'tter.

Brown, Cobourg, Ont., slateszâ€"“I was completely run down in health last spring, and could not do one day’s Work without being laid up for about two days after- wards. I felt weak, languid, and miserable most of the time, and was often blue and discouraged because of my continued ill-health. When in this state I was advised to try Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food, and did so with most satisfactory results. It built up my system wonderfully, strengthened and fostered my nerves, and took away all feeling of innguor and fatigue. I cannot say anything too good about Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food, and hope that others may pro- fit by my experience.” Dr. Chase‘s Nerve Food is bound to prove beneficial to you, for it is composed of nature’s greatest re- storatives, and acts in accordance with nature's lawe.
