SIX DOCTORS THIS TIME.
South Bend, Ind., July 29th.—Six dif
ferent doctors treated Mr. J. O. Lande
man, of this place, for Kidney Trouble.
He had been very- ill for three years,
and he despaired of ever being well.
Somebody suggested Dodd’s Kidney
Piils. Mr. Landeman used tw'o boxes.
He is completely' cured, and besides
losing all his Kidney Trouble, his gen
eral health is much better than it has
been for years.
No case that has occurred in St. Jo
seph County for half a century, has
created such a profound sensation,
and Dodd’s Kidney Bills are being well
advertised, as a result of this wonder
ful cure of Mr. Landeman’s case.

RrSV^lIA, IPA.IIjS9| JPricc, OOo,
Manager of n Pennsylvania Estab
lishment Tells How It Is Ar
ranged and Conducted,
The new cheese factory in Craw
ford county. Pa., is 30 by 68 feet in size,
double boarded and papered on the out
side, with a cement floor. The work
room is 30 by 30 feet, with a slanting
floor that fails about 4 inches in 26
feet, while the other 4 feet slants to
it, forming a gutter for all slops to
run off. There are two curing rooms.
The small one is papered and ceiled
on the inside. In this we put our new
cheese for 8 to 12 days, after which
they are moved to room No. 2, which
we call the cold room. This room was
sheathed on the inside, papered on
sheathing, put on 2 by 2 inch pieces up
FLOOR PLAN OF CHEESE FACTORY.
and down, papered on those, 1hen
ceiled over the paper, thus making two
air chambers, one of 4 inches and one
2 inches. It was ceiled and pa
pered overhead and filled with saw
dust level with the joists.
Two 12-inch ventilators run from
the ceiling up through the roof. The
windows in this room arc of two
thicknesses of glass. There are also
two small openings in the wall in op
posite corners, to allow cold air to
come in when the night is cooler than
the day. Last fall when the thermom
eter stood for several days above 90
degrees in the shade, we never saw it
above 76 degrees in this room. This
spring we put in a cold air duct.
The cheese are placed on a truck
as they are taken from the presses and
pushed t*> the curing rooms. The
whey is pasteurized as soon as drawn
and kept in tanks covered with boards
and roofing paper. Some of our pa
trons say that the value of the whey
was doubled by pasteurizing.
The building sets on a tile founda
tion, built high enough so no boards
touch the ground. It is covered with
an asbestos roofing. AVe use no hoist
ing crane to unload, as the cans are
dumped over a saddle from the wag
ons. The upper story over work
rooms is used for boxes, workshop,
etc.—Orange Judd Farmer.
HAY IN THE STACK.
Hott It Can Be Meamired with a D«
ffree of Aoeurncy Snflli-ient for
Ordinnry Purposes.
Several correspondents have writ
ten for a certain method of measur
ing- hay in the stack. Here is one
that is said to be quite correct, but
who first formulated it we are un
able to say: Measure the stack for
length, width and the “over.” To get
the “over” throw a tape line over the
stack at an average place, from
ground to ground, drawing it tightly.
Multiply the width by the over and
divide this result by four; multiply
result of division by the length for
approximate cubical contents of
stack. To reduce to tons: For hay |
that has stood in stack less than 20
days, divide cubical contents by 512;
for more than 20 and less than 60
days, divide cubical contents by 422; 1
for more than 60 days, divide cubical |
contents by 380. For instance, take a
stack which measures 17 feet wide,
58 feet long and 36 feet over. Stack
has stood 15 days. Multiply 17 by
36, equals 612. Divide 612 by 4, equals
153. Multiply 153 by length 58, equals
8,874, which gives the cubical con
tents in feet. Divicle 8,874 by 512,
equals 17.3 tons in stack.
In the bay the rule is to multiply
the length, width and height of the
bay, or the hay, together, and then
divide the total by 350, the supposed
number of cubic feet in a ton of good
timothy after it is well settled. Thus
a bay 20 feet long, 15 feet wide and
15 feet high would contain 12 tons
and 1,750 pounds. Of course these
measurements are only approximate,
and the actual results will show
slight variations either one way or
the other. There is no rule that can
be absolutely correct.—Washington
Farmer.
Grnmira for Dry Weather.
Experience during recent dry sum
mers strongly emphasizes the chief
weakness of blue grass—its almost
entire failure to grow during dry
weather. Orchard grass has been
found best of the ordinary grasses
in this respect, but the common red
clover has shown its superiority to
any of the smaller grasses for either
hay or grazing in dry years. Highly
prized as are the old blue grass pas
tures, it seems clearly proved that
a greater quantity of food would be
produced by putting them under a
rotation, with corn and clover the
chief crops. This would involve more
labor, but in present condition*
would give better prospects of
profits, said the late Prof. G. E. Mor
row.
In 1864 the Australian oost of carry
ing merchandise was 6s. 3d. per ton
per ten miles- It is now li. fid. for the

A H envy-Armed Elephant.
At a recent meeting of the Zoological
•ociety in London a photograph was
exhibited, showing a pair of remark
ably large tusks which had belonged
to an African elephant. Measured
along the outer curve, each tusk was
ten feet and four inches long, but they
differed a little in weight, one weighing
225 and the Ather 235 pounds, or a total
of 460 pouncPs, which the elephant had
carried about without the least in
convenience.—Youth’s Companion.
Extent of Ocean Cables.
At the present time the extent of
ocean cables is nearly 200,000 miles.

times the total for the cable sj-stems.
In the United States alone there are
about 800,000 miles of wire in use.—

We Challenge
the W orld
to produce a better remedy for Chills and
Fever, Ague and all Malarial diseases than
Yucatan Chill Tonic (Improved). For
the past 15 years many sweet and so
called tasteless Chill Ton
ics have been forced
on the public. The
theory of this sort
of medication is
wrong. The stomach of
a sick person rejects
anything sweet and
when the stomach
rebels it is time to change your medi
cine—any honest doctor will tell you so.
A Chill Tonic made right is what the people
want, and the American PharmacalCo. (Incorporated),
of Evansville, Ind., have, after many years of study
and experiment, produced a remedy for Chills,
Fever, Ague and all Malarial diseases, that just suits
the taste of a sick person. This famous remedy, which
is called Yucatan Chill Tonic (Improved), has
achieved a wonderful success wherever introduced
and in many sections has entirely superseded the
sweet and nauseating, so-called, tasteless Tonics.
Insist on getting the genuine Yucatan Chill Tonic
(Improved). Your dealer has it or can get it
from his jobber in a day or two. Price 50 cents
a bottle. Made only by the
AMERICAN PHARMACAL CO.

bodies ready with weakness to succumb to the
hot spell. Dizziness, heat headaches, sick
stomachs, sticky oozing ill-smelling sweats,
restless nights, terrible pains, gripes and cramps
in the bowels, sudden death on the street, all
result from this neglect.
