Twelve Things to do This Month.
1. Get the land ready for plant
ing staple crops. Don't stop
with plowing, but harrow and re
harrow until a perfectly pulver
ized seed bed is made. The best
paying work is done before planting-
2. Get good seeds for planting
all crops. Don't depend on just
what you can pick up and don't
wait till planting to buy or select.
3. Select, prepare and plant
special "seed patches" for your
seed corn and cotton another
year.
4. Get the harrows and weeders
out and begin using them. The
new H's "Horse and Harrows"
will do twice the work of the old
H s "Hired Hoe Hands."
5. Keep the fire out of the
fields. As Dr. Knapp says, "Use
mre sense and less fire." The
greatest need of our Southern
soils is humus, the most expensive
fertilizer is nitrogen; rotting
trash and grass supply both.
6. Keep the garden going. Don't
foTget that almost everything
from radishes to beans and from
lettuce to corn should be planttd
this month.
7. Spray and prune and culti
vate your orchard. Don't turn
it over to the fungus diseases and
insect pests, even if it is a little
lata to start fighting them.
8. Arrange a series of lots for
hog pasturing. With Southern
pasturing crops we can make pork
more cheaply than Western far
mars can, but we can't compete
ueiug corn alone.
9 Get busy in the poultry yard.
Do 't have chicks hatched with
nr provision made to take care of
tL m and don't put it off until
h t weather.
10. Give the work stock special
Cbre. Don't allow them to get
p or or nave them sunenng from
8Gi'-; backs and shoulders.
11. Screen doors and windows.

you get the steel collar adjusted
to fit the horse, it takes only an
instant to put it on or take it off.
It is easily kept clean by wipiug
off the inner surface with a rag
moistened in kerosene, or by
brushing off with a horse-brush as
soon as it is removed from the
horse. It is cooler in summer
than a leather collar, and aewarm
in winter. After being used for

I. T. JONES,
Virginia. Progressive Farmer
and Gazette.
Why does Great Britian buy
its oatmeal of us?
Certainly it seems like carrying
coals to Newcastle to speak of export
ing oatmeal to Scotland and yet, every
year the Quaker Oats Company sends
hundreds of thousands of cases of
Quaker Oats to Great Britian and
Europe.
The reason is simple; while the
English and Scotch have for centuries
eaten oatmeal in quantities and with a
regularity that has made them the
most rugged physically, and active
mentally of all people, the American
has been eating oatmeal and trying all
the time to improve the methods of
manufacture so that he might get that
desirable foreign trade.
How well he has succeeded would
be seen at a glance at the export re
ports on Quaker Oats. This brand is
without a rival; is packed in regular
packages, and in hermetically sealed
tins for hot climates. 51
Dr. Cook In Dire Straits.
Dr. William H. AxtelJ, who
was a. personal friend of Frederick
A. Cook, to-day received a letter
from Mrs. Cook, dated Valpar
aiso, Chile, in which she says the
explorer is broken in health, with
out funds and unable to continue
his fight to establish: his claim
that he discovered the pole. Dr.
Axtell said today :
"Mrs. Cook tells me m her let
ter that Cook made considerable
money out of his trip when he
first arrived in New York, but
that he spent it in defending-him-
selt against bitter attacks from
his enemies before the Copenhagen
decision was made public,
"Cook left New York later
escape contumely, says Mrs. Cook
and to go before the board of in
quiry at6Uopenhagen as his own
representative. Then Mrs. Cook
followed him, met him in Enp
land, found him a nervous wreck
and very ill.
"bha writes that it was her
ui6 musoos aia not appear
publicly at the time he was un
favorably reported on . She says
she took him to Holland, France
Italy, and then to Spain, where
they embarked for Buenos Ayres
"From Buenos Ayres they went
around Cape Horn to Chile. Cook
is still very ill and will be in no
condition to take up his fight for
the honors, which he still says
should have been his."
Dr. Axtell added that accord
ing to the letter the explorer and
his family will arriva quietly in
JNew York and settle down for a
quiet life.

Steel Horse Collars Give Satisfaction.
Messrs Editors: In reading
Dr. Butler's advice in regard to
preparation for the rush of spring
work, and his remarks in regard
to horse collars and their fitting,
reminded me that perhaps some
reiders of The Progressive Farmer
and Gazette would "like to know
something in regard to the merits
of the steel horse collars. As I
bought one of them three years
ag and have had it in constant
us ever since, I consider that it
hss passed the experimental stage
with me. I have found it to be a
griat improvement over the leath
er collar. Being adjustable to
three or four sizes it can be used
on horses with different siza
necks, if you wish to do so, and
cbu be made to fit any one horse
far better than a leather collar, as
it may be made wider or narrower
at top or bottom, as desired .
The surface that comes in con
tact' with the horse's shoulders is
perfectly smooth, and as it can
not wrinkle, as a leather collar
would, there is no danger of a gall
ed shoulder from that cause.
Just be sure that the steel col
lar fits perfectly and you are all
right. Do not expect it to do
what is impossible in any collar
that is, to work all right if it does
not fit. Put yourself in the horse's
place, and wear a collar a size
loo email one day. When once

The shooting, tearing pains of neuralgia are caused
by excitement of the nerves. Sciatica is also a nerve
pain.
Sloan's Liniment, a soothing external application,
stops neuralgia pains at once, quiets the nerves, relieves
that feeling of numbness which is often a warning of
paralysis, and by its tonic effect on the nervous and
muscular tissues, gives permanent as well as immedi
ate relief.
One Application Relieved the Pain.
