THE DANGER
to which the Expectant Mother is
exposed and the foreboding and
dread with which she looks for
ward to the hour of woman’s
severest trial is appreciated by but
few. All effort should be made
to smooth these rugged places
in life’s pathway for her, ere she
presses to her bosom her babe.
MOTHER’S FRIEND
allays Nervousness, and so assists
Nature that tiie chan ;e goes for
ward in an easy manner, without
such violent protest in the way of
Nausea, Headache, Etc. Gloomy
forebodings yield to cheerful and
hopeful anticipations—she passes
through the ordeal quickly and
without pain—is left strong and
vigorous and enabled to joyously
perform the high and holy duties
now devolved upon her. Safety
to life of both is assured by the
use of “ Mother’s Friend,” and
the time of recovery shortened.
“I know one lady, the mother of three
children, who suffered greatly in the
• birth of each, who obtain* and a bottle of
‘Mother’s Friend’ of me before her
fourth confinement, and was relieved
quickly and easily. All agree that their
labor was shorter and less painful.”

j PLOW POINTS
When you seed down the wheat do
not forget that the yield of the crop
depends largely on the plumpness of
the grains, and though it may be te
dious work to attempt to select the
plumpest grains for a field, yet it will
pay at harvest time. It is possible
that the best grains may be separa
ted by the use of a suitable screen.
At the New York station, a selection
of 1.000 grains of seed wheat was
made and the plump - grains- planted
and compared with an erpial number
of inferior grains, both kinds being
treated alike in the soil. Five rows
of lame seed produced a total of 3,-
572 panicles, or an average of a fract
ion over <3 94 panicles per row. The
five rows of small seed yielded a to
tal of 2,205 panicles, or an average
of 441 per row. The plants from the
large seed yielded over 52 ounces of
straw and 24 ounces of grain, the
small grain yielding only 29 1-2
ounces of straw and 112 2-3 ounces
of grain. It will be noticed that the
large grains produced nearly twice as i
much straw as the small grains and
four times as much grain as well as
a much larger amount of grain in pro
portion to the straw.
When the crops are removed from
the garden burn the ground over so
as to destroy weeds and seeds. It
may then be plowed and seeded to
rye, if not too late in the season at
the time, the rye to be plowed tinder
in the spring. The object should be
to avoid having weeds in a garden so
as to render the work less difficult
during Jhe busy season, and if this
matter is carefully attended to there
will be no weeds to kill in two or
three seasons.
Keep the stock off the pasture and
spread manure over the surface, so
as to protect during the winter and
give the grass a good start early in
the spring. Those who manage to
have good pastures allow the grass to
grow late in the year and broadcast
with manure after the first frost ap
pears. In the spring the land is har
rowed, so as to fine up the manure,
and wood ashes applied. In this
manner a good sward is maintained
for many years. Some pastures are
cropped two closely.
To distinguish butter from oleo
margarine, according to Prof. Taylor,
of the Department of Agriculture,
have on hand a small vial of sulphu
ric acid, using a glass stopper for
safet\. A few r drops combined with
butter will turn it first a whitish yel
low and in ten minutes a brick red.
If oleomargarine is treated in the
same wav it first becomes of a clear
amber and in twenty minutes turns
to a deep crimson. Use a small
glass rod when making the experi
ment. and also compare the results
bv using both articles at the same
time.
If eggs were sold by the pound
there would be more care given the
fowls and a greater interest taken in
tlu breeds of poultry. The best
hens are not always the ones that lay
the largest number of eggs, though
they may give a greater profit under
the present system of selling. A hen
that lays ten dozen a year, weighing
twelve eggs to the pound, does not
perform as much service as one that
lays nine dozen weighing eight to the
pound. Selling by weight would en
able the hens that lay fewer eggs to
give the greater profit.
At the recent meeting in Boston of
the Society for the Promotion of Ag- j
ricultural Science, it was stated that!
the English sparrow eats the cati
pillar of the brown-tail moth with
avidity. It would seem to have met
this moth in England and to have
acquired an appetite for it. It has
doubtless kept it in check there, and
may do so here. At last the use of
the much maligned English sparrow
has been discovered.
According to the United States
Census Reports of 1890, the value of
the irrigated farming lands in this
country was SB,?. 28 per acre, while
the value of farm lands not under
irrigation was but $20.95 l' er acre -
This fact gives an idea of the value
of water to crops. It appears to in
crease the cash value of land four
fold. How to increase the water
supply becomes the greatest consid
eration, and the man who can devise
the means to preserve and distribute
at will the rain fall of winter and
spring will be worthy the honors ot
the age.
Ten chemical elements are found
to be essential to the growth ot ag
ricultural plants. 1 liese are carbon,
oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, phos
phorus, potassium, calcium, sulphur,
magnesium and iron. To this list
chlorine and sodium, the constituents
of common salt, are added by some
authors. Manures and fertilizers are
used for the purpose of conveying to
the soil the three elements, mtro
gen, phosphorus and potash, in avail
able and convenient form, experience
having demonsttated that practically
all soils contaif? an abundant supply
of the other minerals required for
plant growth.
All farmers know that wood ashes
are valuable for fertilizer. But
this value, as may know, is due very
much to the mattrtal from which the
ashes come. Thus ashes made from
hard wood are more valuable than
ashes made from soft wood. In fact,
some ashes from soft wood have not
enough virtue to make it worth while
to bother with them. It has also
been found that the value is largely
governed by the part of the tree from
which the ashes is made. It is de
clared by chemists that the ash of
the young twigs is of more value than
the ash of the trunk of the tree, and
the ash of leaves still more valuable.
Top dressing in the fall is an ex
cellent way to treat the wheat and to
preserve the manure from loss.
Wheat land that has been plowed in
the fall is loose and the rains carry
the soluble portions of the manure
down instead of allowing them to
wash off the surface, the roots of the
wheat (or other fall crop) following
the plant food and absorbing it.
No kind of land should become
poor from cropping. F.very time a
crop is removed something should be
applied to the land. There may be
a sufficiency of manure, but fertilizers
\ are now much cheaper than formerly,
I owing to increased sources for pro
| curing them. On farms where live
| stock can be made profitable the
ground should bqcome richer every
year and the crop should be larger to
correspond.
Butterine cannot compete with
good butter. There is not such a
thing as medium butter. If it is not
choice it deserves no place in the
market. Much of the butter sold is
unfit for use, and the cause is ignor
ance in making it. In Europe dairy
schools have been established for
many years, the result being a rapid
advance in the methods of butter
making. In this country dairy
schools are beginning to be estab
lished and are well attended. Butter
making begins when tne milk is drawn
from the udder. The strictest clean
liness being observed. Filth and
carelessness are the obstacles in the
way of good butter.
Do not reduce the food because of
a scarcity, but buy bran and linseed
meal. Economy in the saving of
food means a Joss ir. the product.
Food brought on the farn, is not only
an addition to the raw material to be
utilized, but increases the manure
heap.
The commercial value of fertilizers
as given in the station bulletins, and
their agricultural values, are by no
means identical. The commercial
value only represents the cost of the
| materials to make fertilizer if a farm
jer should desire to prepare his own.
I The agricultural value depends upon
j a variety of conditions, such as the
kind of soil, crop, season, time and
1 method of application and tillage.
The most reliable test of any ferti
lizer's value is made by using it on a
given soil and crop.

The Backbone of Oor Nation.
“It is from the farm and the coun
-1 try districts that the great brain power
!of the country has come, is coming
' today, and must come in the future,"
w-rites Edward W. Bok in the October
Ladies' Home Journal. “Instead of
deprecating country life, and saying
that ‘to live in the country means to
live out of the world,' intelligent peo
ple know that the free, untrammeled
life of the country unquestionably
gives broader views. The human
mind always grows to suit its outward
surroundings. Originality and a de
velopment for great things has naught
to check its growth where one can
look with earnest eyes from Nature
up to Nature's God. To speak of
•the ignorance of the rural regions’ is
to stamp one’s self as an ignoramus :
not the country people. There is a
soundness of core and an intelligence
in the back country of this nation
of ours that people who live in cities
and think themselves wiser never sus
pect. YVe can talk all we like of
‘social revolutions’ and kindred evils
that are supposed to threaten this na
tion. When they do threaten our in
stitutions the danger-signal will not
come from the back country. Such
thoughts are born and fed amid the
foul atmosphere of the cities. In the
clear country air of the farm nothing
threatens this country, and when any
thing in the shape of a socialistic, an
archistic revolution does menace this
land the true voice which will stamp
it out will come from the country.
The backbone of this lands rests in
the country and on the farm.”

Keeping Eggs For YY iuter.
I have tried many different meth
ods of packing eggs, but have found
that keeping them in brine is more
satisfactory than any method of dry
packing that I have had any exper
ience with. I use jars in which to
keep the brine, although kegs or any
water-tight vessels will answer the
purpose. The receipe for making the
brine is as follows : To three gallons
of water, half a pint of w-ater-slacked
lime, of the consistency of thick
cream, and one pint of common salt.
Stir until both lime and salt are dis
solved: then drop the eggs carefully
to prevent cracking, as a cracked egg
will soon spoil. The eggs must sink
gently, not rapidly, and must almost
float, but if they float on the top the
brine is too strong and more water
can be added, Eggs must be entirely
fresh and each day’s supply deposited
in the brine as soon as gathered.
If these directions aie followed eggs
will be fresh in appearance and qual
ity after being in the brine a year.
Of course a fresh laid egg is prefera
ble for table use or cake icing to any
packed eeg, but there are many ways
of using eggs in which a packed egg
answers equally as well, and there is
a time in the life ot a hen, when
moulting, that she does not seem to
have the interest of the housewife at
heart, but is looking after her own
comfort. Eggs then become scarce
and high and a store of packed ones
from which to draw is very acceptable.
During the late spring and early sum
mer months eggs are very plentiful
and cheap. This is the time to pack,
and you will have plenty of eggs the
year around.
