No woman should submit to a surgi

until she has given Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound a fair trial.
This famous medicine, made only
from roots and herbs, has for thirty
years proved to be the most valuable

organism. Women residing in almost
every city and town in the United

SET OUT STRAWBERRY PLANT
Several Methods In Genera

Matted—Row System Seems Best
—Keep Weeds Down.
There are several methods of plant
ing In general use, which may be mod
Hied to suit the planter. The method
which seems b- st adapted to ordinary
conditions In the matted-row system.
In the spring, when the land is In
good condition to work, harrow smooth
and mark out rows four feet apart and
as long ns possible. Then set the
plants at IS or 24 inch intervals in
the rows, and cultivate often enough
to keep the weeds out and the soli
loose until September, when, if the
plants are vigorous growers, the run
ner» should be about six inches apart.
It Is desirable to train the runners
the long way to the rows, cutting out
plants that crowd In ordinary plant
ing trowel or spade Is used to set the
plants. A spade is an easy implement
to open the ground with. Strike it
Into the ground and work it back and
forth, draw out the spade, spread the
roots of the plant, and set it so the
crown comes just to the surface of
the ground. Firm the soil well about
the roots of the plant. As soon as
possible after setting the plants, cul
tivation should commencé, and it
should continue at frequent intervals
till fall. Keep the weeds down and
the top soil loose. If the runners get
too thick, cut out part of them, leaving
about six Inches between them. Run
ners may be encouraged to root by
putting an Inch or two of soil over
each one near the end

Excellent Type of Army Horse.
tBy CAPTAIN A. H. WADDELL.)
Although there Is no great war go
ing on at the present moment there
never has been a time when army
horses are so much needed as they are
able to live peacefully with his neigh
bor and without wanting to rob him
of that which is his or measure words
with him to see who shall claim some
coveted territory, as his own.
at present, for notwithstanding
Bagues tribunals, Carnegie peace
funds, and an apparently general de
sire for arbitration and the peaceful
settlement of International dispatch
ers every great and military nation of
the world is increasing its armament
both on land and at tea, the great
martial nations of the world are noth
ing more nor less than armed camps.
Foreign governments are well aware
that horses cannot now be had by the
mere purchase of them in numbers
anything like sufficient to supply their
demands, indeed the scarcity of army
material In the shaiie of horse flesh is
not to be had in anything like ap
proaching the numbers required
The United States has spent an av
\
erage of $30.000 a year on cavalry
horses. France has noted $1,500,000
and Germany $950.000 to horse breed
ing. in England they spend something
yver $20,000 a year for breeding horses,
many of which are at once marked
down by foreign buyers, and the short
age of horses bred in this country
during the last three years amounts to
something like 30,000 and in spite of
the huge proportions of their army
estimates, the remount department.
An additional 30.000 horses are need
ed to reach the minimum of riding
horses Immediately required for that
army to sny nothing of artillery and
Gransport animals
The scarcity of horses In the British
army Is appalling, the breeding of suit
able horses in England sinks progres
sively and official condemnation of ex
isting methods of a new organization
have disturbed the horse societies and
the Industry in general. Farmers,
who must be the natural agents In
breeding horses are out of touch with
the war office, and are giving up what
might be n sound and fairly lucrative
part of their business.
Such facts ns these ought to open
the eyes of alert America whose fa
cilities for stock raising are unlimited.
All the peace congresses In the world
will never prevent war. nor will wars
ever cease until man has assumed a
far higher plane and a far higher civil
ization than he enjoys today. The
struggle for existence and the survival
of the fittest will be In evidence tor
many thousands of years to come, and

The first official record of imported
Guernseys occurred in 1S33, when a
captain while stopping at the is
land, bought a pair and sent them to
his brother In New Hampshire. Since
then their growth In popular favor has
been steady, the Improvement of the
Im-ed, along sclentiiic lines, has been
pronounced and it has resulted In one
of the greatest of dairy breeds.
The New England states have re
mained the center of the Guernsey
Industry and proud of the fine, record

sea
Yes. wars will go on, and horses
will be required more than ever al
though peace rest upon the greater
part of the world today. Since racing
laws have come into effect In various
parts of the country and so much
thoroughbred stock has been, and is
still be sold and widely dispersed and
there are still many horses of this
class for sale, there has never been a
more opportune time for the far sight
ed American to gather in the best
stamp of thoroughbred stallions and
the best class of brood mares for the
purpose of breeding a good standarc
of army horse to supply the enormous
armies of the great military nations
of the world, to say nothing of the
United States army Itself.
Artillery, cavalry and mounted In
fantry, are now the arms of the serv
ice upon which the outcome of a cam
paign depends, and this force to be
effective must be horsed In such a
way as to leave no possible doubt as
to the standard. It must be as fast
as It is possible to make It. always in
condition, trained to the hour, and "fit
to go," at a moment's notice.
The makings of such horses as
these would always be on hand for
the great armies of the earth of the
large ranch owners if the rolling west
would start In and breed a class of
horse that would meet their demands.
Too Many Roosters.
Do not keep too many male birds
as they are not needed for breeders
and are a constant expense. Hens lay
as well or better without them and
the eggs keep longer, are better for
storage and private customers.
Twenty hens, the best you have,
mated to two good males will produce
enough eggs for almost any farmer to
set. Even fanciers could sometimes
make more by caponlzlng the Inferior
cockerels than by keeping them late
and selling them at a small price.
German Sausage.
Sausage In Germany is made of
chopped meat and fat. liver, lung,
heart, brain, rind of bacon, often with
the addition of spices, salt, saltpeter,
grits, bread crumbs, rice, raisins, etc.,
filled in intestines, stomachs and blad
ders. Most sausage Is made of pork,
although beef, horse and mule meat,
mutton, goose and game liver, and
sometimes even fowls, fish and crabs
are used.
