Take the items of corn, hay and meat, we can, and some of us do raise com cheaper than they do in Kansas or Iowa, consequently that com fed to hogs will produce bacon at less cost than the Kansas farmer can make it Take hay for an illustration: as the vogue now is or has been a farmer finding that he will be short of for age makes his calculation to borrow money in January from some bank or merchant to buy Western hay in March or April when, after he be comes educated by the Farmers’ Union, he will in September take a few acres of sandy land break and subsoil them, broadcast over them some cotton seed or meal and acid phosphate and kainit. Plant Rye and Vetch and while the snow is yet on the soil in Kansas and Iowa har vest more fine hay than all his stock can consume and then have the same land that made it to plant. If he is wise, in corn and peas, or else in his idol cotton. There are some merchants who fear by organization and improved methods of cultivation the farmer will become independent and that they will lose his custom. An idle and foolish ,-j apprehension. The southern farmer as a rule and from heredity, will always be a spender j no matter how much he may pro duce and the merchant who does business in a community of pro ducers and spenders will always prosper beyond one who does busi ness in a community of borrowers. There is no use to argue this propo sition. And what is true of the merchant it true of every other avo cation. The germicidal val ue of these recipes may be increased by adding three fourths of a pound of chloride of lime to every thirty gallons of the wash. Home and Farm has published this formula frequently, but we do it again, for it is worth the price of the paper,—Home and Farm.

Rheumatic Pains “My mother is a great suB ferer from/hcumatisni, and Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills is the ©nly remedy that relieves her.’’ MRS. G. DAVENPORT, Royceficld, N. J. 0 The pains of rheumatism are almost invariably relieved with Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills. They also overcome that nervous irri- tation which prevents sleep be cause they soothe the nerves. To chronic suffers they are invalu able. When taken a> directed, they relieve the distress and save the weakening influence of pain, which so frequently pros trates. Many sufferers use them whenever occasion requires with the greatest satisfaction, why not you?- They do not derange the stomach nor create a habit. Why not try them?
