Lance says: "As 1 have been beuellted by the use of Cardui, the woman s tonic. 1 want to write this letter lor publication, as it may be the means of helping other sulTering women. For three years, I suffered so, ai times, with my back and bearing down pains, 1 would think 1 could not possibly endure the pain. 1 gradually got worse, and would look with dread for these trying times to roll around. Finally 1 decided to try Cardui, the woman's tonic, as i had heard so much of its help to other women, and how glad 1 am that 1 did. for 1 can truthfully say that 1 have been greatly benefited by taking only four bottles; in fact, it lias entirely relieved me. 1 can truly sympathize with any sufferer from those awful pains due to womanly trouble, for 1 have certainly had the. experience of tliem."

As old age advances we require less food to replace waste, and food that will not overtax the digestive organs, while supplying true nourishment. Such an ideal food is found in GrapeNuts, made of whole wheat and barley by long baking and action of diastase in the barley which changes the starch Into a most digestible spgar. The phosphates also, placed up under the outer-coat of the wheat, are included in Grape-Nuts, but are lacking in white flour because the outercoat of the wheat darkens the flour and is left out by the miller. These natural phosphates are necessary to weii-uaiancca luniilmg of muscle, brain and nerve cells. "I have used Grape-Nuts," writes an Iowa man, "for S years amj feel? as good and am stronger than I was ten years ^go. "Among my customers I meet a man every day who is well along in years and attributes his good health to Grape-Nuts and Postum which he has used for the last years, lie mixes Grape-Nuts with Postum and says they go fine together. "For many years before I began to eat Grape-Nuts, I could not say that I enjoyed life or knew what it was to be able to say 'I am well." I suffered greatly with constipation, but now my habits are as regular as ever in my life "Whenever I make extra effort f depend on Grape-Nuts food and it just fills the bill. I can think and write a great deal easier." "There's a Reason." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read "The Road to Wellvllle," in pkgs.

When an animal presents an abnormal condition of health there must exist a cause, but too often the enerI gios of the keeper are bent so much on finding a cure that the disturbing cause is entirely neglected. For scours in pigs there must be a cause. Scours being merely a symptom. The condition exists inside the digestive tract. It is doubtless a condition of petrification resulting in the generation of poisons destructive to the food beforo It can he assimilated. To find a cure potent enough to kill and expel the germs of putrilication from the digestive tract, and still not Injure the animal, is necessary, but by all means the keeper should endeavor to discover what caused the presence of the germs in the first place. Everyone has heard of cases of ptomaine poisoning and doubtless all have experienced cases of sour stom ach; between these extremes there are many types of fermentation that may infest the digestive tract. Ptomaine poisoning implies and demonstrates a nitrogenous article upon which to work. What is called sour stomach is simply common fermentation of the sugar. It is well recognized among physicians and chemists that when organic nitrogenous compounds break up the simpler compounds are much more noxious as a rule than those given off by the disintegration of a carbohydrate. iFrom what lias been said it may be easily deduced that when oil meal middlings or tankage putrify in the digestive tract of an animal the result would be more serious than if the material decomposed were corn, i Our experience with seven lilters of pigs during the last two weeks is as BUILDING A CONCRETE WALL Convenient Method of Constructing Windbreak for Stock Is Given in Detail and Illustrated. A very convenient way to build a wall for a hack-yard fence, or for a windbreak for stock, is described by Cement Age. The wall is built up In 1 panel sections, about 12 feet long, with a foundation extending three feet in the earth. Supporting one end of this panel, and built up at the same time, is a large concrete post. The other end of the panel is keyed into the mortise in a similar large post molded at the previous operation, as shown in the sketch. The forms for the panel are simply two indeuendent walls of ono.it./?s ing fastened on uprights of two by four inch material, spaced about two feet apart. The mold for the post Is a box open on ono face and at both ends. The open side butts against the end supports of the panel forms. | ??N V A Concrete Wall Built Up In Panels, the Joint Being Reinforced With Rods. To tho inside of the board opposite the open faco is nailed a wedge-shaped timber, which forms the lengthwise mortise of the post, into Which the next panel is keyed. Two two-foot ! lengths of three-eighths-inch rod are inserted through holes bored in the ! face of the wedge, one three inches from the top and the other three inches from the bottom, allowing one I iooi or tlx- rods to enter each panel, j In starting the wall, use tlx- post j form only and can-fully plumb it. ; using the rods as reinforcing for the Jirst panel. Pays to Save Manure. Nitrogen is worth at least eight ' cents a pound A horse will produce 15 tons of manure and litter a year, containing 130 pounds of nitrogen. At I eight cents a pound, the value of that 1 manure is $10.40. It pays to save it. Experiments have shown that liquid and solid manures when kept together deteriorate much more rapidly. Also the more compact the manure is stored away from the weather, the least loss will result. Here is a hint for progressive farmers. Our farmers need this nitrogen and when it reprek mts at least $10 a horse, otio can afford to take a little hotter rare of manure. I M FARROWING TIME l : F these pigs raised 32 In tnree litters. ! follows: On February 21 two of our young sows (arrowed 22 pigs. All were saved but one. Previous to farrowing. in faet all winter, my lirood sows were all fed alike. In the morning 1 gave a bunch of ten sows about a bushel of clover cha(T from the burn lloors, scalded and stirred into a thick mush with five quarts of oil meal and one quart of tankage. At night they ate somewhat less than a half bushel of corn. They had the run of 20 acres of stalk land and 20 acres of grass land. Inspired by the appearance of such litters of strong pigs I immediately began Increasing the feed, although previously having determined not to. Within three days the sows wero getting three pints of mixture composed of oil meal middlings and tank! age twice a day. and given a good feed of corn beside. At this time the manure of the sows began to give off an odor overlooked by me entirely. Two more sows farrowed eight pigs each and saved them all. 1 increased them rapidly in feed, but about that time the trouble began. Scours appeared. I cut the slop content at once to less than a pint of well salted meal mixture and to three ears of corn. The pens were thoroughly cleaned, scraped and freshly bedded. Scour soon began in the other litter. but showed no serious symptoms, as these sows had been on heavy feed only a day or two. From the first two litters five pigs died between the ages of ten and twenty days, and others were badly ,i<? ..ft I will say here that 1 pulled them all through, giving no medicine of any kind to sows or pigs except plenty of i salt in the slop. te GENERAL t FARHNOTES Keep all weeds from going to seed. + There uro fet ,000,000 theep in the United States.

I LNIflMTlONAL SUNMfSftiOOL Lesson j (By E. O. SEliIiKHS, Director of Keening Department, Tho Moody Bible Institute, f Chicago.) LESSON FOR SEPTEMBER 28 REVIEW. Deliverance and Disobedience. HEAPING LESSON ONLY-Nohemlah 9 9 21. See also Acts V:S0-34. OCI.DEN TEXT?"Thou art a God ready to pardon, gracious and full of compassion, slow to anger and plenteous In mercy."?Neh. 9:17 (Ain. R. V.) Tho lessons for the past quarter begin with tho deliverance of tho child Moses nnd end with the apostasy of the golden calf and cover a period of approximately 80 years. In almost every lesson there Is something prophetic or typical of Christ, but two things may bo mentioned with special emphasis, viz., the passover, lesson VI, rco 1 Cor. 5:7, and the bread from heaven, lesson VIII, see Matt. 26:26, I Cor. 11:23, 24. For the younger classes a most fascinating story can be told when presenting this review. Describo Miriam watching the ark, Pharaoh's daughter espying the ark, sending tho babe to its mother and later adopting it as her son. Tell of tho day when Moses made his great cholco. of tho timo ho thought he could freo his brothren, but failed, not yet having the necessary power from Cod. Then tho 40 years as a shepherd (John 10:14), the I revelation at Horeb. tho conflict at | Pharaoh's court, the passover, and tho flight by night, tho crossing of tho lied sea, tho gift of tho quails and the manna and thnt dramatic scene of the giving of tho law. Enough is horo presented to raoro than occupy the lesson period. Four Episodes. For tho older classes. Tho lessons of this quarter seem to group themselves into four general episodes: < 1) Moses, his salvation, education, flight and call; (2) Pharaoh, his pride, humiliation and the passover; (3) the flight, at the lted sea, being fed in tho wilderness, and (4) tho law, God's holiness, his commandments and the great, apostasy. The following brief review is suggested: Have one class member tell of the steps leading up to tho Israelltish slavery in EgypL Let another pupil present either orally or written, an account of tho life of Moses up to tho time of his appearing before Pha m..i nnii mn apparently audacious request, "Let my people go." 1a;1 that student not only reclto tho historical facts but also show God's dealing with this son of an obscure Blave. Ho might illustrate by alluding to others whom God has raised up to "do exploits" in his dealings with men. Daniel 11:32. This will cover four lessons. Another pupil should then present as concisely as possibln that remarkable conflict which God. through his representative Moses, worked out with Pharaoh. This whole episodo was treated as lesson V, the text being Ph. 105:23 30, und in lesson VI the record of the passover. This latter, the great feast of the Jews und ; Ghrist who is our passover ought to lie carefully and yet emphatically presented. Let us not neglect to present the Itible teaching on this, one of tho greatest truths ever revealed to man by a gracious, loving, heavenly father, Heb. <>:22. Member ar. Spokesman. The third episode can be presented if in 'class by a student, or if the review is a general one by tho whole school. Let some particular class select one of its members as spokesman. This embraces lessons VII und VIII and Is a gracious revelation of God's protecting care and nlso his abundant supply for our every uced. In this section is another and a most beautiful suggestion of that "living bread" so freely provided for all wl.o will accept. i Coming now to tho last great oplpode of this quarter, the events in connection with the giving of the law, we embrace lessons IX, X, XI and XII. Before God gave them the various commandments ho sought to emphasize his majesty and his holiness by I ho smoking mountain, etc. We then have two lessons on tho decalogue, a most fitting arrangement inasmuch as tho first part deals with the God-sido of life?man's relation to his creator and the second part has to do with man's relations to his brother man The last lesion la a terrible illustration of thin dual fact. The litter inability of the natural heart to fulfill its hii;h sounding promises, its exceeding sinfulness and the necessity of right relations with him who alone can keep it pure is, it seems to us, the imjiortnnt h-ason of the setting up of tho golden c.alf. The two reading lessons give us the true light of the divine patience and the divine persistence. The golden text is also an epitomo 1 of the spirit of these lessons. } Outline: 1.
