Losses By Pulling Fodder. Someone has just sent me a copy of The Progressive Farmer of July 11. and. while enclosing $1 for sub-! scription, I am taking the liberty of writing you to tell you how much I appreciate your first page article, "Let's Quit Pulling Fodder." I have had the management of more than 30 farms during the last 10 years, and have worked most earnestly to induce our farmers to ceas.e pulling fodder. In the absence of exact data I assured them that they were losing at least 25 pier cent of the real value of the corn by pulling fodder at a time , when the fodder would be of any value, and I am glad to say that a number of them have taken heed of my suggestions. , One North Carolina man stuck out against me for a number of years, but I finally induced him to leave a ' a portion of the corn untouched and, ' as fortune would have it, I entered his field when he was gathering his corn from the pwrtion from which j the fodder had been pulled. I asked him to examine that corn carefully and then walk with me into the portion where the fodder had. not been pulled and where the crop < itsef was much inferior. (He pull- ' ed the fodder from bis best crop). After examination he gave in and assured me he would never again pull a blade of fodder.?L W Brcuw, iti The Progressive Partner. Legislative Timber. I T h*?rp in inRt ahmit as much nollt- ' ieal wisdom packed into the follow* * ing paragraph ffoffl the Wilmington Sta r as in anything we have come across lately.

As The Star ( aayy; i When a man wants to go to the t Legislature he ought to want to go I to do something for the people, in* i stead of something for himself.

' I was attacked with dysentery about July 15 and used the doctor's medicine and other remedies with no relief, only getting worse all the time. I was unable to do anything and my weight dropped from 145 to 125 pounds. I suffered for about two months when I was advised to use Chamberlain's Colic,Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. "I used two bottles of it and it gave me permanent relief," writes B W Hill of Snow Hill, N C. For sale by all dealers. . Some people may be surprised to ' learn, says a contemporary, that , the maxim, "Cleanliness is next to Godliness," is neither from the Bible nor from Shakespeare, but will be found in Rev Chas Wesley's sermon on "Dress." We don't know why there should be surprise. "Some people" are as guiltless of reading Shakespeare and the Bible as they are of reading Wesley's sermons?Columbia Record. Invigorating to the Pale and Sickly "Cured" jj Mrs. Jay McGee, of Steph- $ Ienville, Texas, writes: ' For nine (9) years, I suffered with A womanly trouble.

A wise old spider sez to me: "You keep my web unstrung?" sez he; "The net that I have set for flies, Is torn down right before my eyes? Pray what can this reason be?" Sez I, "because I ADVERTISE!" "Some friendly merchants I have," sez he, "Who rarely ever pester me? By patrons my web is ne'er unstrung? I find their goods are not so young 'Tis just as plain as one, two three; Their goods by ads are never sung! rhen the wise old spider hied away ro live in peace day after day, Where, unmolested, catching flies Quite across the door he lies? nArr. tiioro Vua tn r>nc? hin wnv Because this store doesn't ADVETISE!"
