I complained to my . parents and they concluded that in I time would outgrow my trouble, but when they heard me groaning during my sleep they became thoroughly alarmed. Medical advice was sought but to no avail. I grew rapidly worse And wm soon unable to move about and finally became confined continually to my bed. The best doctors that could be had Aere consulted, but did for me, I tried various kinds of nothing advertised patent medlclpts extensively with but the same result. For twelve long years I was thus a aufferer In constant agony without abscesses formed on my body In succession and the world Indeed rpld look'ed very dark to me. About this time when all hope was gone and nothing seemed left but to resign myself to my most bitter fate my attention was called to Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People. Like a drowning man grasping at a straw. In sheer desperation I concluded to make one more attempt not to regain my health (I dare not to hope so much) but If possible to ease my pain. I bought a box of the pills and they seemed to do me good. I felt encouraged and continued their use. After taking six boxes I was up and able to walk around the house. I have not felt o well for thirteen years as during the past year. Only one year have I taken Dr Williams' Pink Pills and I am able now to do chores and attend to light duties, "Do I hesitate to let you publish what I have said? No Why should I? It Is the truth and I am only too glad to let other sufferers know my experience. It may help those whose cup of misery is as full as mine was In the past. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in a condensed form, all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They build up the blood, and restore the glow of health to paleand sallow cheeks. Pink Pills are sold in boxes (never in loose bulk) at 60 cents a box or six boxes for 82 50, and may be had of all druggists, or direct by mall from Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Schenectady, N.

This fermentation is comcalled although monly souring, under this there are - masked general name a number of other changes. The souring of milk Is due to the action of numerous living organisms that break down the sugar in the milk, forming lactic acid, and the change in the chemical reaction of the milk results in the formation of a hard, flrm'curd. If the entrance of these organisms that come from the dust of the air, the dirt and filth that is dislodged from the animal, the impurities that remain In the cracks and joints of the vessels that are used to hold the milk could be entirely prevented, milk would remain sweet for an indefinite period of time. Scrupulous cleanliness In securing and handling suih a perishable article as milk does much to keep it in a normal condition, but even with the best of care, much loss Is occasioned fcy the presence of there growing bacteria that are capable of exerting smh a profound influence on this food --- her arrivalr gives her a matter to look forward to and even loay for, and in the afternoon the eows'JAve a home longing and start for'tKe bars, and getting up the cowa with boy, horse and dog is an obsol'te custom on such a farm, in this summer care of the should be looked cows their-comf- ort after in the lot, seeing that there Is plenty of good water, and shade of some kind.

Where the pasture is about destitute of shade, there should be an open barrack provided, and water pumped handy by.

If the cow. Is to be fresh In September or October she should be kept In good heart by some kind of grain, with g generous percentage of albuminous matter in it. to sustain her and develop the milking function. Years ago it was thought the thing to starve the fall milker; now the danger is from the opposite direction, overfeeding, Keep this summer dry cow In thrift, not fatten her, and she will pay it all back in extra milk. The summer milker may not em to need extra feed, but some grain will be profitable. One profit is to hire her to come home at night, and avoid the expense of keeping a dog to worry her and kill sheep the rest of the time, and when the pastures fail this cow will not shrink like a grass-fe- d cow. Along these lines there is no end of things, to learn, and. to advantage, and the chief o'f these are plenty and a variety of feed, good and abundant water, both at yard and pasture, quht tnd comfortable quarters, and Practical legularity of attention.

Would be thankful for an opinion. Another query; A friend of mine Is anxious to cross Black Minorca cockerel on Brown Leghorn hens. Would there be a gain as to number and size of eggs or any other advantgtas layers by uniting the qualities of both? There Is no doubt that warmth Is main factor In securing eggs in winter changing the season Into summer conditions The objection In the above Is a probability that should the bouse be made too warm the hens may become tender and easily take cold. In regard to the cross mentioned, it Is probable that the Black Minorca would Increase the size of the eggs, but not the number. We see no advantage In crossing, as It soon leads to mongrels. If size Is wanted In eggs why not use the pure Minorca w Ithout crossing? A tross destroys many good qualities of both breeds American Poultry Highest Of all in leavening Power.

Is a question of paramount importance. The recognition of the fact that consumption in phases is a common disease of jts many dairy cattle andLhat the Infection exists through the use of milk-otuberculous animals has done much to awaken the public Interest In a closer examination of milk supplies. JThejrarious epidemics of typhoid and scarlet fevers as well as diphtheria that have been traced directly to an Infected milk supply show conclusively that the possibility of Infection being transmitted by means of milk is not to be ignored. In considering the ways in which it is possible to render our milk supplies purer and more wholesome, the hyglenie side of the question must be considered as well as the economic phase. In order to accomplish the above purposes, holly or in part, many methods of treatment have been suggested that are based upon the action of different physical and chemical forces. All of these attempt to accomplish their purpose by either Inhibiting the growth of or actually destroying the bacterial life that Inevitably gains access to milk under ordinary condiions. One of the most successful methods of treatment has been In the use of heat applied in different ways. The Importance of the above relation la dembnstrated in a recent epidemic of, typhoid fever In Stamford, Conn. Prof. C. A. Llndsley, secretary of state board of health, in a letter to the writer under date of May 20. 1895, says; In the town of Stamford,nowof about 18,000 number over population, the cases 300. All these cases are the customers In several inof one milk peddler. stances where persons contracted the disease, they drank the milk while visiting at the house of the milkman.
