Nursery Experiment.
'A writer in American Gardening
ays that a nursery firm in Kalamazoo
county, Mich., bought 80 cattle, most
ly cows, which they -propose to feed
and fatten. They expect to get some
returns from' milk made and sold, and
a margin of profit from the sale of cat
tle when they are well .fattened, . but
their chief object is to obtain a large
amount of rich cow manure to ferti
lize their land. They hope to get it
for their labor, if not some: money be
side, and that the labor will, not be
any more than they have heretofore
expended in drawing home . manure
from where they bought it. Yet some
agricultural writers say we should not
try to fatten an old cow, as the price of
cow beef is low, and it costs more to
feed her than she could be sold for.
;We suspect that they never tried fat
tening by grain feeding during the
summer -when the animals were in pas
ture, but that they tried to fatten too
quickly with no succulent food, and
did not continue . the process long
enough to obtain even the best cow
beef prices. We think farmers can
make a better profit in this way from
the cows which do not show well under
the Babcock test, or do, not give milk
enough to be profitable, than in any
other way.

Xlie Famous' Cliicayo Harvmter
Company Received' More and
Greater Ilonori Than Were Ever
Before Accorded an American
Exhibitor in the UUtorf of Ejc
positions America may well feel proud of the inter
est which her citizens took in the Paris Expo
sition and the elaborate exhibits which were
prepared with consummate skill and displayed
in a manner not excelled by any other country.
Those of Harvesting Machinery in particular
were most complete and interesting. The
Deering Harvester Company, of Chicago,
America's foremost manufacturer of this line
of goods, was accorded the position of honor,
having contributed more to the advancement
of the art of harvesting than any other manu
facturer, living or dead, and with a greater
array of important inventions to its credit
than any other company in the world.
Visitors to the Exposition were prompt to
accord the Deering exhibits supreme honors,
and it only remained for official mandate to
ratify the popular verdict, which was done in
a manner as substantial as it was well-merited.
Each one of the seven Deering exhibits secured
the highest award in its class.
In addition to four high decorations, the
Deering Harvester Company received twenty
live awards, or twenty-nine in all, as follows:
Decoration of Officer of the Legion of Honor,
Decoration of Chevalier of the Legion of
Honor, Two Decorations of Officer of Merite
Agricole, a Special Certificate of Honor, The
Grand Prize, Six Gold Medals, Sir Silver
Medals and Elev.en Bronze Medals, including
Deering Collaborator Medals.
The Decoration of Legion of Honor was in
stituted by Napoleon Bonaparte when First
Consul in 1802, and is only conferred in recog
nition of distinguished military or civil achieve
ments. It is the highest distinction in the gift
of the French Republic.
The Decoration of Merite Agricole is an
honor of but slightly less importance, which
is conferred upon those who have contributed
greatly to the advancement of agriculture.
An Official Certificate of Honor was accord
ed the Deering Retrospective Exhibit, which
showed the improvements in harvesting ma
chinery during the p&Bt century, and excited
the highest praise of the French Government
Officials who had entrusted to the Deering
Harvester Company the preparation of this
mot important exhibit. By special request
this exhibit has been presented to the National
Museum of Arts and Sciences at Paris, where
it' has become a permanent future of that
world-famed institution.
The Deering Twine Exhibit and Corn Har
vester Exhibit, both of which received the
highest awards, have by request of the French
Government been presented to the National
Agricultural College of France.
There was no field trial, either official or
otherwise, in connection with the Taris Expo
sition, but the most important foreign contest
the past season was held under the auspices of
the Kussian Expert Commission at tho Gov
ernmental Farm of Tomsk, Siberia, August
14th to 18th. All the leading American and
European machines participated and were
subjected to the most difficult tests by tho
Governmeat Agriculturist. Tho Expert Com
mission awarded ths Deering Harvester Com
pany tfca Grand Silver Medal of the Minister
of Agriculture and Domain, which was the
highest award.
The Deering Harvester Works are the larg
est of their kind in the world, covering eighty -live
acres and employing 000 people. They
are equipped with modern automatic ma
chines, many of which perform the labor of
from five to fifteen hands.
This Company is also the largest manufac
turer of Binder Twine in the world, having
been first to produce single-strand binder
twine, such as is in general use today, making
over a third of the product of the entire
world. The output of its factory for a single
day would tie a band around the earth at the
equator, with several thousand miles to spare.
The annual production would fill a freight
train twenty miles long. Made into a mat two
feet wide, it would reach across the American
Continent from ocean to ocean.
Deering machines are known as Light
Dkaft Deals, consisting of Binders, Mowers,
Reapers, Corn Harvesters, Shredders and
Bakes.
This Company exhibited at the Paris) Expor i
tion an Automobile Mower, which attracted
much attention, and exhibitions wore gh en
with one of these machines in the vicinity of
Paris throughout the season.

Speaking of Style.
Apropos of the matter of style a
writer in the London Bookman a few
months ago gave figures to illustrate
chronologically the decline of sen
tence length, his figures being obtained
by finding the average words per sen
tence for 500 periods. Beginning with
Fabyan and ending with Emerson his
list stood: Fabyan 68.28, Spenser 49.7S.
Hooker 41.40, Macaulay 22.45, Emerson
20.58. The Chicago Daily News says:
"Wf.re this list continued by adding
Kipling.and, say, Richard Harding Da
vis, today it would be found that there
would be a further decline in the unrn
ber of words in a sentence."

You know very well how you feel when your liver don't act. Bile collects in the blood, bowels become
constipated and your whole system is poisoned. A lazy liver is an invitation for a thousand pains and aches to.
come and dwell with you. Your life becomes one long measure of irritability and despondency and bad feeling.
CASCARETS act directly, and in a peculiarly happy manner on trie liver and bowels, cleansing, purifying,
revitalizing every portion of the liver, driving all the bile from the blood, as is soon shown by increased appetite
for food, power to digest it, and strength to throw off the waste. BoAaro of imitations!
