It must follow the gain of blood gives the body strength. The strengthening eiifect of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery is in large part due to its action on the blood-making glands and the in creased supply of pure, rich blood it produces. It is only when the blood is impoverished and impure that disease finds a soil in which to root.JJThe “Discovery” purifies the blood and makes it antagonis tic to disease. When the body is emaciated, the lungs are weak, and there is obstinate lingering cough, “Golden Medical Discov- ’ ery” puts the body on a fighting footing against disease, and so in creases the vitality thatdiseaso is thrown off, and physical health perfectly and permanently restor ed. It has cured thousands who were hopeless and helpless, and who had tried all other ipeans of cure without avail.

C, Subscribe for the Home Journal Knowing of some test cases in the use of salt to combat pear blight, and that the salt applica tion has had a most beneficial ef fect, we deem that we should give the evidence to ,the public. The application of salt to fruit trees is generally disapproved by horti cultural authorities. There are exceptions to most rules; perhaps Balt may be used with success in exceptional cases. Pear blight is a disease that has so far baffled scientific treatment. The subject is outlawed at state conventions and yet there is cause for it, and doubtless there is, in the unknown, a remedy. We visited an orchard recently that had been attacked with great virulence by the blight. The blackened leaves portended death within a few days. Two trees were entirely beyond the treatment stage. The water sprouts had al so been attacked and were black. The owner scattered salt under these trees and they made a fresh start. New leaves have come out and show up green among the blighted ones. The water sprouts, too, are putting out new leaves. The evidence is plain! It is a practical demonstration. The salt checked the blight in that orchard and revived the trees. No ill ef fects have been evident, so there can be no objection for others who have trees that are going with the blight to try this simple remedy. It costs but little to apply one or two quarts, with salt at $2.25 a barrel. Here is another practical dem onstration that worked strangely. A Benton Co. Ark. fruit grower gave his apple trees an applica tion of salt. HiB trees are now re markable for their vigorous foli age and large fruit. Just over the fence trees not treated do not pre sent nearly so good an aqpear- ance and their apples are small. And here is a story that still further shows that salt sometimes acts contrary to established theo ry. A gentleman had a tree in his yard that he wanted to be rid of, and instead of chopping it down he dug under it and placed in the cavity a lot of salt, expecting it would soon become dead wood, and the family would not object to having the tree cut down. But to the man’s amazement the tree grew ( more vigorously than ever before, It greatly outstripped its twin tree, near it, and twenty years after the salt-treated tree was in robust condition. Inasmuch as blight is killing most of the pear trees in the southwest, it would be well to make a trial with salt—-scatter a liberal amount on the ground un der the limbs and tvatch for re sults.—Practical Fruit Grower. The much boasted fertility of the Nile valley pales into insig nificance when compared with the products of the corn-raising sec tions of Qeptral Illinois. Census figures just out show that in 1899 McLean and Cham plain counties each produced oyer 15.000. 0QQ bushels of corn. Liv ingston and LaSalle produced over 18.000. 000 each; Iroquois more than 12,000,000, and Vermillion more than 11,000,000. Twenty- seven counties produced from 5,- 000,000 to 10,000,000 bushels and fifty-eight counties from 1,000,- OOf) to 5,000,000 bushels each. In addition to this, enormous quan tities of hay and other grain were grown, McLean county growing over 9,000,000 bushels of oats, Ir oquois over 8,000,000 bushels,with LaSalle aud Ghamplaim following with large yields. Any donbb as to the permanent value of corn belt land is readily dispelled by perusal of these astounding figures.—Live Stock World. Boot and a Fanner. Secretary of War Root was on his way to Southampton recently when a farmer edged into the seat and began telling the cabinet minister how to run the govern ment, says the New York Times. When the citizen’s supply of criticism began to run low, Mr. Root said: “What is your occupation?” “Poultry farmer,” was the re ply- “Do you know how many eggs each of your hens lay?” “Why, no,” confessed the man. “Well, the man who looks af ter my chickens knows how much work each hen does. If he didn’t I’d discharge him for not know ing his business, If a hen doesn’t produce fifteen eggs a month it’s a loss to keep it. Now, my friend, doesn’t it strike you that after you have learned your own busi ness so well that I can’t give you points on it, then would be the proper time for you to come and teach me how the government ought to be run?” To Cure a Cold in One Day Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tablets.

For five years I was trying to do something to. keep hawks from taking my chickens, bnt in spite of all they would take them almost daily. Sometimes one would dive down within a few feet of me and fasten to a chick and take him away without touch ing the ground, seemingly, or slacking his speed. At last I bought a ball of common cotton twine, such as is used in all stores, and strung it out in the orchard, where one brood is loca ted, the same as New England farmers line their corn. Mr. Hawk came, but dared not go under the line, and not a chick did I lose until they strayed be yond the line, then more line put a stop to it, and for three years I have had no trouble with the pests. It is inexpensive, and I think many readers will bo glad to try most anything to save their chicks.—Farm Poultry. This is one from the Savannah News: “To sufferers from rheu matism : Go out and get well stung by bees. At Chambersburg, Pa., the other day an old man who had lost the use of both anas from rheumatism was watching a bee.hiving. The hive was acci dentally overturned. The old man couldn’t get out of the way fast enough and the bees covered him. When rescued he was a sight from the stings, but when the swelling from the stipgs subsided every particle of rheumatism was gone, and the old man’s arms were as .good as new.” A YOUNG LADY’S LIFE SAVED At Panama, Colombia, by Chamber lain’s Colic, Cholera aNd Diar rhoea Remedy. Dr. Chas. H. Utter, a prominent physician of Panama, Colombia, in a recent letter says: “Last March I had as a patient a young lady sixteen years of age, who had a very bad attack of dysentery. Everything I prescribed for her proved ineffectual aud she was growing worse every hour. Her parents were sure she would die. She had beoome so weak that she oould not turn over in bed. What to do at this critical moment was a study for me, but I thought of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea, Remedy, and as a. last resort prescribed it. The most wonderful result was effected. Within eight hours she was feel ing much better; inside of three days she was upon her feet and at the end of one week was entirely well.” For sale by all dealers in Perry, Warren & Lowe, Byron.
