Grazing helps to keep the growth in check and throws more strength into the roots, and of course if you can get a good strong root development, the chances are that you will maintain the stand through the winter and get an ex ceptionally good crop of hay the next season. : One can certainly damaere his ground by plowing it too wet South respond more or less freely to the use of fertilizers.

It takes a great deal of work to break this lump of soil up; though of course severe freezing will help to pulverize it. But you can never count on getting a freeze to do the work iust at t.h viht The three are mean teams, rustv tools, and crooked rows. These three evils are the farmer's own fault.

Solder is another icad product what a field-of usefulness that one form opens up. Then there is the most important use of all to which icad is put paint, that necessary material which ke-ps our houses looking pretty inside and out- and preserves then! from decay. How many or us thank mctallc.lcad ior tne comforts of raiU? Yet the best house paint is nothing 'but me talic lead corroded by acid to a white powder known as "white lead." Qf course, there ait- many imitations of "white leac" some of which are sold as white ler,d and some which are offered by the name of ready-prepared valnt under the familiar pre tense that they ara "just as good" as' white ler-i. But all good paint is made of te metal, -ead, corroded and ground to a fine white powder and mixed with linseed oil. White lead is also used in the coat ing of fine oil cloths and for many purposes besides paint.-. "Red lead" is another product of metalic lead and is what is known as an oxide of lead,. being produced by burning the metal. Red lead is the best paint knjwn to preserve iron, steel or tin, and is used largely in pointing Tietal structures, such as skyscraper skeletons, mills and bridges. There are many other products of the metal lead, ;,uch as litharge, orange mineral, etc., which are es sential : many of the arts in which we never imagine that lead would bo of the least use.

Mrs. Pinkham's Standing: Invitation: Women suffering from any form of female weak ness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass.
