Such a window box can be made by anyone having usual mechanical abil­ ity and will furnish more opportunities for artistic and original design than many other articles of more compli­ cated construction. The box proper should be made a little shorter than the length of the Window to allow for the extra space „ -$aken up in trimming and should be itearly equal fa width to the sill, as •howii in Fig. 1. If the sill is inclined. Plan of the Window Box. as 1b usually the case, the box will re­ quire a greater height in front* to moke It set level, as shown in Fig. 2. The box should be well nailed or screwed together and should then be fainted all over to make it more dura­ ble. A number of one-half inch holes should be drilled in the bottom, thus allowing the excess water to run out and prevent rotting the plants and .box. Having completed -the bare box, it may be trimmed to sulft the fancy of the maker. The design shown in Fig. 1 is very simple and easy to construct but may be replaced with a panel or other design. One form of panel de­ sign is shown in Fig. 3. Trimming having too rough a sur­ face will be found unsuitable for this work, as it is difficult to fasten and can­ not be split as well as smooth trimming. It should be cut the proper length . Ijefore being split and should be fast­ ened on with brads. The half-round l-^boops of barrels will be found very useful Iti trimming, especially for flll- tftg-in purposes, and by using them the Operation of splitting is avoided. After the box is trimmed, the rustic work tihould be varnished, in crder to thor­ oughly preserve it, as well as improve Its appearance. • SETTING OUT TREES. 8DW1NG GRASS SEED. Timely Suggestions by Prof. W. J. 8pillman, U.S. Department Agricul­ ture. The Importance of good seed can hardly be' overestimated. A good many failures in seeding down the grasses result from insufficient prep-x aration of the land, but many failures result, also from the use ©f seed -which has' lost much, or all, of its vitality. ~ Other things being equal, rich /and requires more seed than poor land, and wet land more than dry. A well- prepared seedbed requires less than one poorly prepared, because a larger proportion of the seed finds a chance to germinate. A single pound of tim­ othy seed to the acre, if every seed produced a thrifty plant, would give 27 plants on every square foot of land. Since 12 to 15 pounds of tim­ othy are usually required to secure a good stand, it is evident that only a small proportion of the seed sown On even the best prepared land pro­ duces plants. On rough, cloddy land the propor» ti6n is much smaller. No absolute rules can be laid down for deter­ mining the amount of seed to sow. One must consider all the circum­ stances and be governed accordingly. A beginner will do well to consult those who have farcied in his local­ ity for many years, and If such ex­ perience is not availably, to use a liberal allowance of seed until he has learned the proper amount. When mixtures are sown, a num­ ber of considerations govern the amount of each kind to use. In sow­ ing grasses and clovei together it is customary to sow enough of both for a full stand. But if several grasses are used in the mixture, the amount of each is usually somewhat reduced. In parts of the timothy region, it is customary to add more or less red- top to the timothy and clover, except when the hay is grown for sale; but the amount of timothy seed is not thereby reduced. * The amount of each kind of seed to be used depends partly on, how much of each kind of grass is de­ sired in the hay. Redtop is Usually added as a filler to increase the yield,; rather than because of its desirability in the hay, and hence the proportion of its seed is small. Some authorities recommend that nearly as much of each seed be used in a mixture as if it were to be sown alone, a^d this is a very good rule if one is aot sure of the quality of the seed. A general rule is to reduce the amount of each kind of seed in proportion to the num­ ber of kinds In the mixture. This rule should be used with much caution, yet it is a guide of some value. HANDY SACK HOLDER. Will Really Hold the Mouth of the Sack Open. Take a heavy piece of plank 82x12 x2. This should be a good solid piece without any cracks in it Now mor­ tise two holes four inches long across the plank 26 inches apart. Now nail or bolt cross plank inside the holes. Make spring standards from oak or Yearly Practice of Planting Trees a Good One. On our farm we have made It a practice every spring to set out some trees. We choose this season of the year because we have had better suc­ cess in getting them to grow than we biave by planting them in the fall. This holds good not only with forest trees, but also with fruit trees and even Strawberries. Of late years we have been putting opr trees along the highway and now we have some beautiful trees growing there. Some of those we set our first are now six or seven inches in diame­ ter, having made this growth in the list 15 years. And these, too, being fciftrd or sugar maples, have grown as slowly as any trees, almost, that one might choose to set out In our state, New York, writes E. L. Vincent in Farmers' Review, there is a state liw providing for certain tax deduc­ tions for setting out trees along the Mghway, but we have ne^er taken ad­ vantage of It, being very *rell satisfied With the added beauty, as well as the prospective usefulness to us of the trees. Not far from our place there is a farm with so many trees of the variety mentioned, the sugar maples, along the road that the owner can tap quite a sugar orchard right there if he wishes to. The trees have gained a good size now, so that they would not be materially injured by careful tap­ ping. There is this great advantage in a sugar bush of this sort It is easy of access. One neei not travel around over rough roads to do the work| It is always neat and clean and the *ork of gathering the B^p is not hard. Some day we will all pay more attention to this matter of setting out trees than we do now, and it will be a great thing for the country when we 54 f ' Feed and Butter Fat.

The dairy farmer and the creamery ipan mtist pull together.

MISSOURI WOMAN refla a Story Of Awful Wonderful Relief. Ittg Mrs. J. IX Johnson, of 60S West Hickman St, Columbia, Mo., says: •'Following an operation twb years ago, dropsy set in, and my left side was bo swollen the doctor said he would have to tap out the water. There was constant pain and a gurgling sensation around my heart and I could not raise my arm above my head. The kid­ ney action was disor­ dered and passages of the secretions too frequent. On the advice of my husband I began using Doan's Kidney Pills, Since using two boxes my trou­ ble has not reappeared. This is won­ derful, after suffering two years."

There is a German dairyman and farmer, Whose place is not far from Philadelphia, who greatly plume3 him­ self upon the absolute superiority of his products above all others in th® vicinity. * On one occasion he personally ap­ plied to a Germantown housekeeper for' a transfer of her custom to him­ self. "I hears dot you hat a lot of drouble with dot dairyman of yours," he said. "Yust you gif me your gus­ to m and der "rill be no drouble." "Are your eggs always fresh?" ask­ ed the woman. "Fresh!" repeated the German, In an Indignant tone. "Let me dell yon, madam, dot my hens nefer, nefer lay anything but fresh eggs!" BLOOD GETS SOUR. Gives Advice and Tells of Simple Heme Mixture. At this time of year, says a well- known authority, the Kidneys become weak, clogged and inactive, failing to filter out the poisons and acids, which sour the blood, causing no| only facial and bodily eruptions, but the worst forms of Rheumatism, Nervous and Stomach troubles, Backache and pain­ ful, annoying Urinary afflictions. It is worth anyone's time now to get from some good prescription pharmacy the following ingredients: Fluid Ex­ tract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Com­ pound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mix by shaking well. In a bottle and take In teaspoonful doses after your meals and at bedtime. This simple home-made mixture will force the Kidneys to normal, healthy action, so they will filter and strain all uric acid and poisonous waste matter from the blood, and expel this in the urine, at the same time restoring the "full blood count"--that Is, 95 per cent, red blood corpuscles--which is abso­ lutely indispensable to perfect health. NOTES. The farmer "pays the freight" on the San Jose scales. Many flower seeds are ° very small and will not do well in rough, lumpy soil. A new insect--the apple leaf miner, is getting in its evil work in some parts of the country. It is a mistake to keep food continu­ ally before the hogs after they have been put on full feed. No hog can be healthy or produce meat of the best quality if compelled to drink putrid water.

How are your women folks cared for In regard to drying the family wash­ ing? jpr- The Only Way. There *is no safe method of deter­ mining the butter qualities of a herd except by testing or churning the milk of each cow separately. The bulk of the milk is not a sure indication. Very often the cow that gives but a moder­ ate quantity of milk may yield the largest amount of butter. In breeding up a herd a knowledge of the charac­ teristics of each cow will enable the dairyman to breed for the best results, as the superior cows may be used for breeding to thoroughbred bulls. It does not pay to keep the calves unless the merits of their sires and dams are well known. > , GONE FOREVER. Ten years ago a farmer put his ini­ tials on a dollar bill. The next day he went to the nearest town and spent it with a merchant. Before the year was out he got the dollar back. Four times In six years the dollar came back to him for produce and three times he heard of it in the pocket of his neigh­ bors. 8 The last time he got it back four years ago. He sent it to a mail order house. He never has seen that dollar since, and never will. That dollar bill will never pay any more school or road tax for him, will never build or brighten any of the homes of the com­ munity. He sent it entirely out of the circle of usefulness to himself and his neighbors.

Appendicitis is often caused by too much starch in the bowels. Starch Is hard to digest and clogs up the diges­ tive machinery--also tends to form calfes in the cecum. (That's the blind pouch at entrance to the appendix.) A N. H. girl had appendicitis, but lived on milk for awhile--then Grape- Nuts and got Well without an opera­ tion. She says: "Five years ago while at school, I suffered terribly with consti­ pation and indigestion." (Too much starch, white bread, potatoes, etc., which she did not digest) "Soon after I left school I had an at­ tack of appendicitis and for thirteen weeks lived on milk and water. When I recovered enough to eat solid food there was nothing that would agree with me, until a friend recommended Grape-Kuts. "When I began to eat Grape-Nuts I weighed 98 lbs., but I soon grew to 115 lbs. The distress after eating left me entirely and now I am like a new per­ son." (A little Grape-Nuts dissolved in hot water or milk would have been much better for this case than milk alone, for the starchy part of the wheat and barley is changed into a form of di- gestable sugar in making Grape-Nuts.)

ADVICE TO Noted Physician Tells How to Prevent and Cure Rheumatism, Kidney " J /"*" and Bladder Trouble* (By Geo. Edmund Flood,-M. f>.) If you would avoid Rheumatism and Kidney and Bladder Troubles, be mod­ erate in the consumption oi heavy, rich foods, substitute as far as possible soups, broths, fresh milk and drink water--lots of water. Take plenty of time to eat, and don't eat after you have had enough, even if it does taste good. If your work is confining take a moderate amount of exercise each day in the open air. Of course, neither diet, water, rest ndr exercise will cure these afflictions. I advise them as preventives only.
