Don't put; off until thn last, moment,
•owing oat* and then hurriedly and su
perficially scratch In n crop, whioh of
all others has proven most valuable to
thn farmer. Thn present year has again
Illustrated' the fact, that the spring
sown crop oaunot bo rnlind on, bht thn.fi
the fall crop. If properly prepared for
aiid sown early enough, Is almost cer
tain. Prepare the land thoroughly to
be ready to begin sowing In September.
The value of rye as a renovator, a grnin
food for stock during the winter months,
and an accumulator of Imrans Is not
generally fully appreciated. Whllo not
as valuable os peas. If sown on the pea
stubble It will take bold of the work
where the peas left off and continue It
through the winter. It is a very hardy
crop, and if sown in tho cotton fields,
does much to provent the wasting and
washing of tho oleauly cultivated soil.

may still be planted to advantage. The
Early Atubor Is best for the late plant
ings. It is exceptionally good for fat
tening hogs, and if out before the seeds
fully form may be fed with profit to all
farm aulnals, only being careful to reg
ulate the amount, as like all othor groan
foods, it is injurious if givon in unlim
ited quantities.

often fall at this season and while the
hot, dry weothor may seem sufficient
reason to mauy for this failure, very
often it is the result of too close grim
ing. The stock are turned on day after
day indiscriminately, and no thought is
given to the foot that any plant will at
last fail if Its foliage is continually de
stroyed. Tho grass Is given no time to
repair the dally damage and the conse
quence is, that being eaten off as fast as
it tries to put out a fresh growth, It
finally gives up the fight and our mid
summer postures beoorae brown and
bare. It Is here that tho green oropa of
sorghum, forage corn, peas, clover come
in as a most valuable supplement, and
if fed systematically will save the
pastures and in the fall the übuudant
growth, which has sprung up on them
will give the aidmals a good start and
save the use Of much of tho stored win
ter food. R. T. Nesbitt.
Salt to Deitroy rnrasitei In Stock—Grub*
In Sheep.
Question. — I notioe that my sheep
and cattle, the young lambs and calves
particularly, arc every year, after being
turned ou the pastures, affected with
some disease, whioh often causes them
to drt*op and in some eases die. I can
assign no certain cause for this trouble,
the pastures are nbundnut, and there is
a stream of pure running water in easy
access. Cau you suggest auy cause for
this ? Is there auy certain euro for grub
in the head of sheep?
Answer—We should judge from
your description that your cattle need
salt. Every pasture, no matter how
well manured, or how flourishing, is
more or less infested with the germs of
parasitical diseases. The eggs or larvae
if the parasites are deposited ou tho
~ t - grass and are token into
the st :uof uui.siu.s while feed
ing fait is ah- ’* !d .-tieal
ur an ■ v ■ • '■ '■ *■ i'- .. in
jury from their attacks. Salting ouoe
or twice a' week will not be suffloient
*-** snucJi a nooessitv to animals
as to man. ana snouia oe placed whore
they cap hnve daily access to it. A lit
tle copperas mixed in the salt about
twice a mouth in the proportion of one
part to ten of salt, has been found ben
eficial. Au occasional dose of sulphur
is also good.
For the grub, prevention is the only
sure and paying romodv. If the enttlo
are provided with a place where they
will bo protected from tho snu during
the hot months, they will oscapo in
great measure the attacks of the flies.
Thick woods or a dark shod will fur
nish this protection, and sheep thus
sheltered will have almost entire immu
nity from grubs In the head. It is well,
however, to watch them, both old and
young, and once or twice a month syr
inge out their nostrils with turpentine
and linseed oil, equal parts. An ex
perienced sheep man says the best way
to do' this is to Insert the syringe three
or four inches up the nostril, give a
quick syringe and let go tho head nt
once. In a short time treat the othor
nostril the same way. Tufting the nos
trils has also been used with ouooureg
ing success. It is better to spend some
effort in the use of these preventives,
than to wuste our time and strength in
endeavoring to remove the grubs after
they have obtained a firm foothold.—

I read in the Christian Standard
that Miss A. M. Fritz, Statical A,
St. Louis, Mo., would give an elegant
plated hook spoon to any one send
ing her ten "J cent stamps. I sent
for one and lound it so useful that 1
showed it to my friends, and made
sl3 in two hours, taking orders for
the spoon. Tho hook spoon is a
household necessity. It cannot slip
into the dish or cooking vessel, being
held in place by a hook on the back.
The spoon is something housekeepers
have needed ever since spoons first
invented. Any one can get a sample
spoon by sending ten 2 cent stamps
to Miss Fritz. This is a splendid
way to make money around homo.

Mr. Newt. Smith decided to be

whereupon said application caused
said pot to lose the directions of the

on last Saturday tho 4th. inst. Redid
not go solely for the benefit of lus
wite’s health, but more for curiosities’
sake. He did not visit the old haunts
of childhood days, or the friends of
years past and gone forevor; neither
.lid his visit consist in viewing over
the old play grounds of youthful days
which is very dear to his care-worn
heart, uot even retracing the siitu-1
paths so often trod in days past by.
But he did travel a road over
which he had never traveled before.
He yravet sed the streets of a little city
for the first time. That city was j
Jefferson, Jackson county. It was a
trip ever to be remembered, lie was
charmed, He was deiighted, He was
enthused.
He was charmed by tho flowers
from the garden of Eden strown along
the highway —the beautiful girls. He
.vas delighted with the large fields of
growing corn which gives promise of

He was enthused over the cotton
prospects and the “stubble’’ fields
sown in peas. In fact, both works of
art and nature seemed to he combined
t<> make everything as attractive as
possible.
We did not go to take part in the
populist railey which took place at
Jefferson on the day named but only
as a spectator. It was estimated that
at least two thousand people were on
the grounds, but it is safe ifl s ®3’ half
were democrats.
Speeches were made by Irwin and
Muhaffey who spared not tha
chastising rod upon the democrats.
To show our readers a sample of their
abuse an anecdote told by Muhaffey.
“Two democrats got together one day j
and in the course oftheir conversation
they struck the financial question.
One says can you tell me what 16 to 1
means in the democratic party?;
The other replied, it means 16 fools
to one sensible man.”
Yi.i soon iu the afternoon we
became so disgusted we turned our
head Lomov, aid no wiser as to
populism pocnines hut having a
clearer id; a as to their principle. We
were almost on the verge pitching
head foremost into the populist party
hut ~ne speech done us. We can see
no good in “cussing' a man for what
he has done hut rather persuade him
to do better in the future.

A Miracle in Vermont
THE WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE OF ▲
WELL-KNOWN CHELSEA MAN.
Stricken with an Inrnratile Dftaena*
ami yet Cured.
(Vromihr Argun and l\itrioi t Montpelier , Vi*)
Eight years ago Geo. Hutchinson moved
from Bradford to Chelsea, Vt., and hough'/
the sawmill at the latter place, lie was
known a* one of the strongest men in that
section. On Dec. 10,’92 while at work in
the mill, he wan struck in the back b j a
Hying lMard, which seriously injured him
uml incapacitated him for work of any
kind. As n result of this, Locomotpr Ataxia
set in, (this is a form of paralysis which
deprives the patient of all use of his lower
limbs.) The Argus 6 c Patriot interviewed
Mr. Hutchinson to-day, and his story id
here given in his own words.
“ My back ached continually and my leg*
began to grow numb and to be less and lea*
usable. By the 15th of April I could do
absolutely nothing and was scarcely able to
stand. Mv physicians advised me to go to
the Mary Fletcher Hospital at Dtirlioeton,
to be treated, aad l took their advice. When
1 left home my friends bade me good-by©,
never expecting to see me alive again.
The physicians at the hospital told me that
my case was a serious one and 1 was coin
pleteiy discouraged. i remained at th©
hospital seven weeks and took the medicine*
which the doctors gave me. I felt better at
the hospital an, 1 thought that I was recover
ing, nnJ went hon.* coutinu© their treat*
ment, which 1 did for two months, ami also
had an electric battery under their advice.
The improvement, however,did not continue
snd I began to give up hope. August Ist,
1895,1 could not get at of my chair without
awjisTsuoc, and if i got down upon the floor, I
cu!l n t get up alone. About this tim© I
chanced to read an acconnt of the wonder
ful curative powers of Dr. Williams’ rink
Pill-i fr Pale People in cases similar to my
jwi). I did not have nnr faith in the Pil.t
Sot to ought a trial could do no harm, so I
bought some without telling anronr what f
wus going to d>. After 1 had been taking
them - -m" time ! found that, f r the first
in mon*h* 1 was abb* to walk down to th*
\hM oflie-, and my neighbor* began to dis*
suss the marked improvement in my health.
As I continued the medicine I continued •©
improve, and soon recommenced work
in the mill, at first very lightly, and in*
freaking an I was able and a* I gained in
health and spirits, and now for the pa*|
three months I have been working ten hour*
r*r day almost as steadily as 1 ever didL
feel well, eat well and sleep as well as I
ever did and I hare no min anywhere. ’*
The reporter talked with several other gew*
tlemen in regard to the case of Mr. Hutchin*
v>n, who stated that any statement he might
tiako would be entitled to entire credenct.
