Mrs. E.' McLaughlin mcnt street, Toronto, 5 daughter was pale, w and very nervous. Her poor and c'lungeuble. scarcer drag herself hot-.56, and her nerves By monotonous work in factories, stores or offices they have exhausted their nervous systems, and sufi'er from nervous, sick headaches, loss of appetite, energy and ambition, and Weaknesses and irregularities peculiar to their sex. Dr. Chase's Nerve Food forms new, rich blood, creates new nerve orce and actually adds new flesh and weight. When you hare read the letter quoted below We believe that you will be satisfied that this is the very treatment you need. There are hosts of girls in this city who are in need of just such a. medicine as Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food. It is to Your Best Interests to Know About the traordinary Restorative Powers of There is no place of residence that offers the advantages for making the home suboundings beautiful as that of the farmer except perhaps among rustic mountain scenery. Usually there is such an utter disregard among our farmers of their immedi- ate surroundings, which should go to make farm homes beautiful and pleasâ€" ant, that 1 cannot refrain from mak- ing a few suggestions here as to the improvement of our homes. It is too often true, that the farmer’s home is devoid of many of the little things that go to mnlée the home surroundings cheerful and homelike and yet they will Wonder why their boys and girls will leave the {farm for places more beautiful in the city. The farmer has such chances for land- scape gardening as the, city resident has not because of more room which he has. A careful selection and placâ€" ing of trees, shrubbery and flowers, together with a Well kept lawn, will make at,com]}aratively small cost the humblest home and surroundings look beautiful. Such trees as inangolias, catalpas, and spruees, and such shrubs as hydranges, spireas, lilacs, and rose bushes, properly grouped and placed would be far more beautiful for the front and side yards than would apple trees and raspberry bushes. we, am Langud @5‘3 I submit herewith plans for a 160- ncre farm. While not exactly suited for all farms yet the general idea may be incorporated into almost any farm, especially one that has. us yet, not been much improved. If a farm is oblong in shape the buildings should never be placed at one end or a corner where it is possible to place them at the centre of one side. The ideal location of the buildings for economy’s sake would be at the centre of the firm, but the home and social side of life on the farm must be considered as well. There are at least three things to be considered in planning a farm: First, the general shape of the farm; second, the location of the buildings, and, third, the rotation of crops to be followed. Sometimes it is not possible to make the arrangement that we most desire because of the contour and general lay of the farm, but where it is possible the fields should not be Square, but. made as long as is practical, and with their openings as near to the barn as is possible. One of the most important problems that presents itself to the farmer is how to put his occupation on a good practical, business basis. Just as many business men have made for- tunes by introducing methods and by utilizing what was once thrown away as waste. so the iarmer can greatly increase the pro- fits of his business by utilizing all wastes and by the introduction of labor-saving methods, writes Mr. C. A. Willson. One of the most frequent losses that occur is that of time and labor through lack of proper arrangement of the farm. A great deal of thought is oftentimes given to the planning of the future house or barns, but not always to the plan of the form. A]â€" ‘ though we see many farms that have very neat fences, and show in a gen- eral way the progressiveness oi the owner, yet almost invariably they are so planned that the lanes pass down the centre line of the farm with al- most perl‘ectly square fields lying on each side. A square field is the most unprncticel form of :1 field there is because of the large number of turns that have to be made when the field is plowed, harvested or the hay tak- en oil. In plowing or reaping a field, the number of rounds increases as the distance from the centre to the sides becomes greater. labor-saving , stl'ect, Toronto, states :â€""My ter was pale, '\\‘cak, languid ery nervous.

She used this treatment for several weeks, and from the first we noticed a decided improvement.

Nerve Fncd Although this plan will not apply to all farms in every detail, yet the ideas for the saving of time and laâ€" bor are applicable to every farm. Lastly the placement of the Woods to the windward side of the buildâ€" ings, where it is possible, needs no comment; upon the protection they would aflord in the winter. At first inspection of this plan it would appear that it would reguiro an extra. amount of fence, but such is not the case, for when arranged in the old conventional Way it; re- quires even a little more. fence. But in laying out a farm the plan- ning of the buildings and yards is not the only thing to be considered. In figuring out the diagram submitâ€" ted I have planned for a fiveâ€"year rotation of crops, a permanent pas- ture, and a permanent Wood lot. It is so planned that each of the fields are of equal size, oblong in shape and as nearly equidistant from the barn as possible. The benefit to be deriv- ed from having the fields of this shape may be readily understood when we consider that if they Were square it Would require 257 more rounds or 1,028\ more turns to plow the field round and round, or it would require 43 more rounds or 172 more turns with the binder to cut the‘ grain. New multiply these results by the number of field's to be plowed and reaped each year and the results beâ€" come more striking. All of this means a Waste of time and labor. The advantage of having the fields inearly equidistant from the barn is evident When we consider that each year's labor and time is more near- ly equalized by not having to draw all the manure to the back end of the farm one year and close to the ham the next, also the distance travelling to and from work is the least possible. ,- Wynne“, mm su thoroughly as Dr. Williams I‘ink Pills.

A rough, noisy, blustering man is Worse than useless on a cattle farm. There is no royal road to sucâ€" cess in cattle raising; it is the at- tention to, or neglect of, the :11) parently trifling details that makes for success or failure. An important matter is to make the cattle comfortable and induce them to lie down as much as pos- sible, allowing- no one to disturb them except at feeding time A mistake of ‘which many of us have been guilty is that of tying up more cattle than we could feed and bed properly; so that we were compelled to use a lot of straw for feed that we should have used for bedding. Straw that is musty or damaged in any Way will make more beef when used for bed- ding than when eat up and forced on the cattle by mixing with the better feed. good feeding A mixture of grain will always give better results than any single variety fed alone, If any peas are to be had it is good practice to lieep them un- til the close of the feeding period. When cattle are put on a heavy raâ€" ltion of grain they will make rapid gains for a time, probably for two months, and then they seem to come to a standstill and make little or no improvement A number of them go off their feed and the feeder gets him- selfinto all sorts of trouble. The point to be determined is not the amount of grain that we can get an animal to consume, but the amount 'he is able to digest and assimilate. No other grain will put so good a finish on cattle as p'eas. A little ‘pea meal fed during the last month seems to firm the cattle up and make them handle and Weigh just a. little better than anything else I know, but they are such streng‘ feed, and so hard to digest that they cannot usually be fed with advantage for more than five or six Weeks unless it be in very small quantities, Regu-‘ larity is one of the first principles oil HOMEJUADE \VEEDER SOME OLD INNS.

A fisherman who fell overboard narrowly escaped with his life. Shoals of sharks, some of them of large size, have been seen ofi the German coast, and they are even reported as becoming far from rare in the North Sea. Their presence is attributed to their pursuit of the herring shoals on the west coast of Norway.
