ECZEMA-"™*®
This most aggravating and tormenting of all skin diseases is caused by an acid condition of flr Jft
the blood, and unless relieved through certain instrumentalities too much
of this acid poison reaches the skin and it becomes red and inflamed. The itching and burning are
JBjgygfr almost unbearable, especially when overheated from any cause. The skin seems on fire, sleep or rest is
impossible, the desperate sufferer, regardless of consequences, scratches until strength is exhausted.
This burning, itching humor appears sometimes in little pustules, discharging a sticky fluid, which
forms crusts and scales. Again the skin is dry, hard and fissured, itches intensely, bleeds and scabs over.
WL jlMrwf ifiSS 4 This is a painful and stubborn form of the disease.
While Eczema, Tetter, Erysipelas, Salt Rheum and many like troubles are spoken of as diseases of
Ara the skin, they are really blood diseases, because
THERE CAN BE HO EXTERNAL IRRITATION
WITHOUT AN INTERNAL CAUSE.
If the blood is in a pure, healthy condition, no poisonous elements can reach the skin.
Ci’ \ m External applications of washes, lotions and salves sometimes mitigate the itching and soothe the
inflammation, but cannot reach the disease. Only S. S. S., the real blood medicine, can do this.
S. S. S., the only purely vegetable remedy known, is a safe and permanent cure for Eczema and all deep-seated blood and
akin troubles. It goes direct to the seat of the disease, neutralizes the acids and cleanses the blood, re-inforces and invigorates
all the organs, and thus clears the system of all impurities through the natural channels; the skin relieved, all inflammation
subsides, and all signs of the disease disappear. AfiESfcta

In the above table ihe words “corn
fodder” have the usual significance
given them in the south, meaning the
cured leaves of the corn; in the previ
ous ta*ble the words “corn fodder” un
der the heading of greeu iodder have the
meaning usually given in the north,
that is to say it moans the entire plant
usually sown thick and not simply the
leaves.
You will remember that the special
functions of food are to renew the
Wastes of the body aud to provide ma
teral for growth in the young and grow
ing animal, and also to furnish heat
and energy. The animal must provide
for these out of the digestible matters
in the ration of food furnished to it,
the indigestible parts are of no value.
The question which now concerns us
is how mu:h shall we feed our stock of
the different kinds of foods we have
analyzed. You know yourself that
when you are hard at work you require
more food, and richer food, than when
you are idle. Nature calls for it, aud
it is not different with your horse or
mule; he requires more nutriment when
at work than when standing in the
stall. When at work he uses up the
tissues of the boiy and protein or car
bohydrates in his food are needed to
rebuild those, else he will grow poor
and weak; ev “ whou at rest he re
quires a certain amount of nutriment
to maintain the normal heat of the body
aud carry du the process of the vital
functions, but not so much, and if fed
as much the disposition will be to grow
fat
In the case of the cow giving milk,
she requires focd adapted to the pro
duction of milk; she is a wonderful ma
chine for converting fat, carbohydrates
aud protein into milk, the protein of
the food goes to make the casein of the
milk, the fat of the food to make cream
or butter, end the carbohydrates to
make milk sugar and also fat; so she re
quires generous feeding just as much
as (he horse at hard labor.and even more
so if sue is to maintain a generous flow
of milk and at the same time maintain
her own normal weight. If you don’t
give her food enough or food of the
proper kind she will begin to make milk
from the tissue* of her own boiy, then
she will become thiu, aud then the flow
of milk will be checked add its quality
will deteriorate.
Thus it is important to know how
mtteh as well as what to feed, so that
we shall not waste by giving more than
is required nor starve by underfeeding
or feeding the wrong kind of food, for
an animal can be surely though slowly
starved by feeding an abundance of
carbohydrates aud an insufficiency of
protein or vice versa. To enable us to
calculate the proper rations for animals
at work and animals at rest, for grow
ing and mature animals, for milk cows
aud fattening animals, a great number
of experiments have been made, and the
tables of Wolff, a celebrated German
experimenter, have been most widely
followed. I give them below:

According to the above standards, a
horse of 1,000 pounds at light work
would require pounds of digestible
proteiu, pounds of digestible carbo
hydrates and 4-10 of a pound of digesti
ble fat, the same horse at hard work
would require 2.8 10 pounds protein,
18.4-10 pounds carbohydrates and 8-10
pound fat, ail, of course, digestible.
In order to show the use of the above
tables let us calculate the ration for a
milk cow. Let us suppose we have ou
baud peavine hay, green rye fodder,
corn meal and wheat bran. Referlng to
the table we find Wolff recommends 24
pounds dry matter, 2|£ pounds digesti
ble protein, 12}£ pounds digestible car
bohydrates and 410 pouud fat. Now, f
referlng to the table in the last letter,
we find cowpea hay contains 89.3
pounds per 100 of dry matter. Then 1
pound will contain .893 of a pouud dry
matter and 12 pounds will contain 12
times 893, or 10.71 pounds dry matter.
Now set this down in a column to it
self. Next we see by the table that
oowpea hay contains 10.79 per cent, di
gestible protein. Then 1 pound would
contain . 1079, aud 12 pounds would con
tain 12 times as much, or 1.29 pounds
digestible protein. Set this result down
in another column to itself. In like
manner we find that 1 pound contains
.884 digestible carbohydrates. There
fore, 12 pounds contain 4.til pounds, and
also 1 pound of the hay contains .0151
of fat. Therefore, 12 pounds contain
.17 of a pound, each of which is set
down in a separate column to itself.
Now in like manner calculate the dry
matter in 20 pounds of green rye fodder.
You will find it to be 4.68 pounds. Set
this under the dry matter in the peavine
hay, and so on with the protein and
carbohydrates aud fat in the rye fodder.
Then take 4 pounds of corn meal and 4
pounds of wheat bran and persue ex
actly the same course, and when you
are through you ought to have a table
like this:
Dry Pro- Carbo-
Matter, tein. hydrates. ral ’
12 lbs. pea hay . 10.71 1.29 4.61 .17
20 lbs. rye fodder 4.68 0.41 2.83 .08
4 lbs. corn meal. 3.40 0.28 2.61 .13
4 lbs.wheat bran 3.54 0.48 1.65 .11
40 22.33 2.46 11.69 .49
There, you see, you have almost the
theoretical standard set by Wolff. It
is a little short, however, in carbohy
drates and dry matter, and, if you wish,;
you can add 2 pounds cotton-seed hulls,
which, when you have calculated it out
and added (he results to the proper col
umns, will increase the dry matter to
24.11 pounds and the carbohydrates to
12.31 pounds, but will only add .03 to
the fat, making it .52 of a pound, and
will not quite add 1-100 to the protein.
So with this addition you have a practi
cally theoretical ration for a cow of
1,000 pounds’ weight giving milk. You
will see by reference to the table that
she requires almost as rich and,nour
ishing food, per 1,000 pounds’ weight,
as a heavily worked ox; that is because
she is producing milk, as well as main
taining the body heat and carrying on
the vital functions. Suppose, however,
your cow only weighs 800 pounds in
stead of J,OOO, you can economize by
giving her SO per cent of each of the
food stuffs, or 9 6-10 pounds of pea hay
and 16 pounds of rye fodder and so on.
It is not to be understood that a ration
will not answer which does not strictly
coincide with Wolff’s standards. These
standards are a guide to help to ra
tional feeding, and a reasonably close
approximation to them is what is de
sired. The intelligent feeder will of
course continue to use his common sense,
judgment and observation. Thus dif
ferent cows show a different capacity
to appropriate food and differ in the
amount of milk produced when in full
flow. Again while a strict adherence
to the standard might produce the
greatest amount of milk say, yet a de
parture from it might, under certain
conditions, yield a better money return,
on account of variations in the price of
feed stuffs. Os course judgement and
common sense must always guide, but
other things being equal a balanced ra
tion is of course to be always preferred.
A ration is said to be “balanced” when
the dry matter, the protein, carbohy
drates aud fat, are mixed together in
the proportions given by Wolff’s stand
ards and to be unbalanced when it va
ries considerably irom those propor
tions. There is always more latitude
allowed for variation in the “dry mat
ter” than in the other ingredients; a
ration may vary several pounds in dry
matter when made up from different
food stuffs and yet have approximately
thedesi:ed relation between the pro
tein and carbohydrates. The protein
may vary say in the ration for a milk
cow from 2.20 pounds to 2.6 and still be
called a balanced ration, the carbohy
drates from 12 to 14 pounds and the fat
from .4 to 1.00 ponnd in the dairy cow
ration and still be considered a bal
anced ration. Still the experience of
the most successful feeders is that
nearer the ration approaches the stand
ard, other things being equal, the bet
ter the results
You will find both profit and intel
lectual exercise in figuring out balanced
rations for your stock in long evenings
when you have nothing else to do. I
will help you figure one more ration for
your dairy cow and then leave you to
do your own figuring for the future.
Let us suppose you are caught with
out any hay or green food at all and
only have an hand cotton seed meal,
cotton seed hulls and corn and cob
meal. Pursuing the same plan as min
utely described before, you will have:
Dry Pro-
Matter tein Carb. Fat
15 lbs. corn and
cob meal P. 33 .03 4.64 .25
12 lbs Cotton seed
hulls 10.19 .78 6.75 .34
4.5 lbs C.S. Meal.. 4.13 1.67 .74 .57
27.65 2.51 12.13 1.16
This ration, you will see, made from
entirely different materialsis about as
well balanced as the first; it is, how
ever, lacking in the succulent appetiz
ing green fodder of the first. So if you
happen to have on the farm some roots,
’ turnips, rura bagas or carrots, add 4 or
5 pounds of these to the day’s ration, to
stimulate appetite and promote good
digestion. The cow will appreciate it
as much as you would your turnip salad
at dinner, although there is but lithe
nourishment in them in the way of dry
matter, protein, eic. One important
point: please do not forget the rations
must be carefully weighed at least one
time. You can provide yourself with
some cheap boxes or measures which,
when filled, will hold just so many
pounds of the different feed stuffs, so
that if you take some pains to carefully
guage them with a pair of hand scales
the first time you weigh out a new ra
tion, after that you can measure it out.

ANALYSIS OF COTTON SEED.
Important aud Interesting Deduc
tions of Sttfte Chemist.
Dovedale, Ga., March 1,1900.
To Commissioner of Agriculture, At
lanta, Ga.:
Dear Sir—Will you kindly tell me
the number of pounds or nitrogsn, phos
phoric acid aud potash contained in a
ton of cotton seed, and in a ton of cot
ton seed meal and the price of same per
ton. I want to know if a farmer can
afford to sell seed at 22 cents per pound
and buy meal at $22 per ton aud haul
each 5 miles. Colonel Redding says
“the farmer who uses cotton seed as a
fertilizer is acting very much against
his own interest.’* I want to do some
figuring for myself. Yours truly,
J. D. Myricr.
Atlanta, March 3, 1900.
To Mr. J. D. Myrick; Dovedale, Ga.:
Dear Sir—Your letter of March 1
received. The state chemist informs
me that a ton of cotton seed ou an av
erage contains
62.6 lbs. nitrogen at 13%c per lb $8 34
25.4 lbs. phos. acid at 3%c per lb 89
23.4 lbs. potash at 4,V 4 c per lb 99
(10 12
Also that a ton of cotton seed meal
contains:
36 lbs. nitrogeu at 13Hc per lb. ....$lB 13
57.6 lite. phos. acid at 3%c per 1b.... 202
35.4 lbs. potash at 4)4 c per lb 1 50
Total valuation s2l 65
In other words, a ton of meal is worth
for manurial value alone $11.53, a ton
more than a ton of seed. At 22 cents
per bushel, counting 67 bushels to a
ton, your seed will bring you $14.74
a ton, leaving $4.62, which the manu
facturer has paid you for the oil over
and above the value of the fertilizing
elements, or at the rate of 11|£ cents a
gallon for the oil before it is pressed.
The oil has no fertilizing value what
ever, and in point of fact is a drawback,
retarding the decomposition of the seed
in the soil and rendering the manurial
matter in them less available. Now if
you are wise you will buy meal on that
basis; buy youiL own acid and potash
and mix to this formula:
Muriate of potash 20 pounds
Acid phosphate 281 pounds
Cottonseed meal 280 pounds
Total 581 pounds
Or if you desire use 100 pounds of kanit
in place of 20 pounds of muriate of pot*
ash. Some very successful farmers do
not think that too much to use per acre;
if you think it extravagant, use as much
as your judgment aud circumstances
will authorize. You would be still wiser
if you keep stock to feed the cotton
seed meal to them and carefully save
all the manure, liquid and solid; and
probably the best way to do this is by
penning tiie cattle on the land to be
manured until you figure that you have
fed them about 300 pounds of meal per
acre, and then move your pen to fresh
ground. Then when you come to plant
this piece of ground in cotton, put on 2(W
or 300 pounds of acid phosphate and 20
pounds of muriate or (100 pounds kanit)
per acre, the ammonia having already
been put on by the cattle. In this way
you will not lose over 10 per cent of the
fertilizing matter in the meal, and you
will get all the flesh forming and fat
forming matter of your cottonseed meal
eonverted into beef, butter and milk.
Depend upon it my friend, this is the
“royal road” to wealth and prosperity
for the southern farmer, and those who
keep in the “middle of the road” will
get there first and quickest.

PLANTING BROOM GORN
IT THRIVES BEST ON THE LAND
WHERE OUR NATIVE CORN
GROWS BEST.
PREPARATION OF THE SOIL
It Must Be 'Well Broken and Ma
nured Seed Make Good Feed
When Mixed With Oats.
Dear Sir—We have your favor ask
ing information in regard to broom
corn, and we reply as follows:
This plant is a variety of “sorghum”
and a native of the East Indies. The
introduction of this plant is attributed
to Dr. Franklin, who, finding a seed on
a whisk-broom that had boen imported,
planted it, and from this originated the
culture of “broom corn” in the United
States. The average product of brush
per acre is about 500 pounds. There has
been produced from very flue soil and
locality as high as 1,000 pounds per
acre. As there seems to be no substi
tute for broom-corn brush, there is
always a demand for it, and it is a crop
that can be easily cultivated. It is a
profitable one for the farmers to raise
in those sections to which it is well
adapted.
The seed makes a very good feed for
horses when mixed with oats. It is
also a fine food for poultry, after the
chicks are two or three weeks old, whan
fed with other food. When groutid
with our common Indian corn in -pzo
portion to three bushels of broom-Corn
to one of Indian corn, it makes good
food for cattle, hog* or sheep.
Generally speaking, broom-corn grows
best where our native corn grows best,
and the preparation of the land is simi
lar to that for corn. Good river or
branch bottom land is best suited to this
plant; but any good land, well drained,
will, with barnyard manure or a good
fertilizer, make a good yield. The bet
ter plan is to broadcast the manure,
plow and harrow the same so as to pul
verize the soil thoroughly. Plant in the
drills or in hills.
The rows may be from three to four
feet, according to the variety to be
grown; the dwarf varieties in three-feet
rows and the larger varieties in four
feet rows. The hills may be two or
three feet apart. When the seed are
sound and well ripened two quarts will
be sufficient to plant one acre. Be'sure
to get good seed. Yon can use the saed
drills that will plant small seed, or if
only a few acres are to be planted, you
can plant with the hand. The cultiva
tion is similar to that of corn, only you
have to use more care and skill because I
of the smallness of the plant. Thinning
should be done when the plants are two*
or three inches high, leaving five or six
in the hill, or if drilled, the stalks
should be left three or four inches apart.
The time of harvesting will depend
upon the use to be made of the crop.
When you plant only for the broom I
corn brush, you may cut much earlier
than when the seed is one of the objects
sought. When the blossoms begin to
fall, you may begin your harvesting,
that is, if the brush is the object sought
The quality of the brush is better when
cut on the green order, for the reason
that it makes the straw tough and gives
it a live color, and accordingly com
mands a fetter price in the market.
Before harvesting it is customary to
break down the stalks, turning down
the tops of the stalks of two rows to
wards each other, thus leaving a vacant
place for the laborer to work in cutting.
The stalks aro broken about three feet
above the ground, and when the stalks
of two rows are turned towards each
other, the stalks of one row will cross
those of the other in such a manner as
the tops will project about a foot on
each side.
Each two rows are then broken in
the same way until the crop has been
finished. This will leave a space
through which the harvester can pass
in cutting the brush, which is usually
done immediately after the crop is
broken. The dwarf varieties do not re
quire the breaking process, as the stalk
is low and the bunch is not so long and
heavy. Cut the brush so as to leave
only 8 or 10 inches of the stalk below it
and no leaves. These should be laid in
small bundles as cut and then gathered
up and placed under shelter. It is best
not to cure it in the sun. Do not allow
any rain to fall on the brush after cut
ting. Cure in the shade, under shelter
if possible. When extensive crops are !
grown special barns are built for this 1
purpose, with extensive shelving, so
that the air can pass through the brush,
that it may not mold or be damaged.
Where the brush is harvested green the
seed is generally separated from it be
fore curing. This is done with a hand
machine made for the purpose. It can
also be done by the grain threshing ma-

cut at the proper time, makes a fairly
good coarse forage and compares favor
ably with corn stalk forage.
In preparing the broom corn brush for
market, it can either be baled in the com
mon cotton press or in a press for baling
hay. When the brush is baled in this
way it can be much more easily han

Wanted to Sit In Her Own Lap.
The little 3-year-old daughter of one
of the leading ministers in Little Rock
resents too great familiarity. One
evening, though she seemed a little un
willing, a young man, who was call
ing, took her upon bls lap, whereupon
she said, with great gravity:
“I want to sit in my own lap.”
It is needless to add that the young
man immediately put her down.

If You do. Come to Me,
THE war is over, and we have demonstrated
to the world that our country is the strong
est in the family of nations, that our citi
zens are the best men on earth, and that
American soil is worth more than that of any
other portion of the face of the globe.
I have on hand for sale a part of this glorious
country, consisting of Farms, Stores. City Resi
dences, Building Lots, Gold Mines, and, in
short, every kind of Real Estate that a man or
wman may desire for a happy home or a com
fortable living. On account of the stagnation
of business during ’96 and ’97, and as a result of
the war with Spain prices reached their lowest
notch. Prospects are now much brighter, bus
iness is looking up, and I believe now is a good
time to invest. I can still sell at lowest prices.
I have a large number of Building Lots that
I am selling at low prices and on small pay
ments, putting it in the reach of all to buy. I
have been in this business a long time, many
of you have dealt with me, and I propose to
continue to act for the interests of beth buyers
and sellers I ask all who desire to buy, or
have property they want to sell, to call on me
or write to me. I will benefit you either way.

When General Grant was in
Paris the president of the republic,
as a special token of respect, invited
him to a place on the grand stand to
witness the great racing which
occurs in that country on Sunday.
It is considered a discourteous act
to decline such an invitation from
the head official of the republic.
Such a thing had never been heard
of, but General Grant, in a polite
note, declined the honor, and said
to the French presidents “It is not
in accordance with the custom of
my country or with the spirit of my
religion to spend Sunday in that
way.” And when Sabbath came
that great hero found his way to the
American chapel, where he was one
of its quiet worshipers.

CATARRH CAN BE CURED BY
Johnston’s Sarsaparilla
QUART BOTTLES.
**DANGER IN THE EARTH AND AIR; DANGER EVERYWHERE.”
A Wise and Venerable Doctor Talks about Advanced Science.
In a leading hotel, in a great city, a famous and aged physician was convers
ing. Listening to his wise and sententious discourse, were a group of well
dressed men, evidently lawyers, business men and commercial travelers.
My firm belief, is “that medical science is certain yet to show that all dis
eases without exception are caused by invisible germs which are living organ
isms. Here is the germ of that terrible disease diphtheria. Here is the bacillus
of typhoid fever; and here is the still more dreadful bacillus of tubercle which
causes that most destructive of all diseases, consumption. This of that very
common and supposed incurable disease, catarrh. ”
“I wish, Doctor," said the traveling man, “that you would tell us about
catarrh. I have had it for years, and lam thoroughly discouraged. ”
The Doctor answered. “Catarrh, like diphtheria, consumption, typhoid
fever, and a host of other diseases, is the result of a microbe invading the blood
and attacking specially the mucous membrane. This foul and most disgusting
disease is especially prevalent in the United States and it is rare to meet one
who is not, or has not been troubled more or less with it. How often is he or
she obliged to remain at home from pleasant entertainments, deprive themselves
of many intellectual treats, from fear of the disagreeable odor arising from ca
tarrhal affections. In its worst phase, the patient becomes loathsome both to
himself and his friends.
“I believe,’* continued this great physician, “that the true way to heal ca
tarrh is to medicate the blood. This can be done only by powerful alteratives
which act as blood purifiers.”
Betsy A. Mareft, of Manistee, Manistee Co., Mich., writes:
Dear Sirs:—For ten years I was a sufferer from general debility and chronic
catarrh. My face was pale as death. I was weak and short of breath. I could
hardly walk, I was so dizzy and had a ringing in my head all the time. My
hands and feet were always cold. My appetite was very poor. On getting up
in the morning, my head swam so I was often obliged to lie down again. I had
awful pains in the small of my back. 1 had a continual feeling of tiredness.
My muscular power was almost entirely gone, and I couldn't go half a dozen
steps without stopping to rest, and often that much exercise caused me to have
a pain in my side. It seemed as though the blood had left my veins. The doc
tors said my blood had all turned to water. I had given up all hope of ever get
ting well. I tried the best physicians in the state, but failed to get any relief.
My husband got me a bottle of Johnston’s Sarsaparilla. I took it, and then I
bought another. When these had been used, I was somewhat improved in
health. I continued its use, and felt I was growing stronger; my sleep was re
freshing, and it seemed as if I could feel new blood moving through my veins. 1
kept on taking it, and now consider myself a well and rugged woman. I work
all the time, and am happy. lam positive that the Sarsaparilla saved my life.
The sick headaches I have had since childhood, have disappeared, and my ca
tarrh has almost entirely left me. I cannot be too thankful for what Johnston’s
Sarsaparilla has done for me. I recommend all women who have sick head
aches to use your Sarsaparilla.
