BUSINESS BITS. 
The late Prof. Goff left the following 
volumes of The R. N.-Y., well bound and 
not badly worn: 1886, 1887, 1888, 1889, 1890, 
1891, 1892, 1893. Anyone desirous of getting 
these back numbers should address Fred¬ 
eric Cranefield, Madison, Wis. 
With the Standard fly killer and sprayer 
made by D. B. Smith & Co., Utica, N. Y., 
the dairyman is well equipped to afford 
his animals perfect protection, and their 
comfort and repose quickly repay in the 
milk pail the little outlay and trouble of 
applying. Such treatment has come into 
very general approval. Write the above 
firm for details of their outfit. 
The manufacturers of Chloro-Naptho- 
leum Dip have recently patented a chute 
attachment for swine tanks, by means of 
which hogs can be dipped without the 
slightest injury. They are dipped without 
seeing the tank. Breeders who dip their 
hogs should write to the West Disinfecting 
Co., 4 E. Fifty-ninth St., New York City, 
for particulars regarding this interesting 
device. 
Fancy graded seed wheats at moderate 
prices are a specialty with A. H. Hoffman, 
Bamford. Pa. By the use of graded seed 
of the most productive varieties it is as 
easy to grow 40 bushels per acre as it is 
to produce 20 with ungraded seed of the 
common varieties. Write to Mr. Hoffman 
at above address for his circular, which 
gives much information of interest to 
wheat growers. 
With the perfecting of machinery for 
the mechanical spreading of manure, an 
awakening has come about as to the real 
wealth of the fertilizer the farmer has in 
his own possession. Much of this increased 
estimate on the manure pile has resulted 
from acquaintance with the Kemp manure 
spreader. When one of these machines is 
taken into a community it makes it quick¬ 
ly apparent to progressive farmers that 
they must avail themselves of this valu¬ 
able implement to retrieve the losses they 
have unintentionally and perhaps unknow¬ 
ingly suffered. The result is that after the 
advent of the first Kemp into a community 
numerous others quickly follow. The Kemp 
manure spreader made by the Kemp & 
Burpee Mfg. Co., of Syracuse, N. Y., 
spreads any kind of fertilizer as well as 
manure, and no matter what its condition, 
whether lumpy, strawy, coarse or wet, it 
is perfectly at home in its work, tearing 
apart, pulverizing and distributing finely 
and evenly over the ground. Send and get 
the Kemp catalogue, which the company 
will gladly forward free for the asking. 
Moving a Mud hole. 
Recently, in calling at a neighbors, 1 
found them repairing an old Virginia 
rail fence along a narrow lane—farm 
road—frequently crossing a mean mud- 
hole, axle deep, occupying the entire 
roadway. 
“How long have you been pulling 
through it?” 
“It was there when we came here five 
years ago. We have buried all avail¬ 
able stone in it” 
The surrounding surface was flat, but 
on one side was an orchard of loose, 
mellow earth. 
‘‘Jim, come here with that spade and 
let me boss you for 20 minutes.” 
I laid out one corner of fence and put 
Jim to spading dirt from the orchard 
side and throwing it to the far side of 
the mudhole. Others joined in the good 
work with shovel and hoe, and in 20 
minutes we had the water running into 
a depression in the soft ground on the 
orchard side, and the foundation laid 
for a solid road in the lane. In passing 
over country roads I have often noticed 
wretched mudholes, often two of them 
with a pile of break-neck rocks in the 
middle, that might be easily and cheap¬ 
ly drained to a piece of declining or ab¬ 
sorbing ground that would at once and 
forever do away with the miserable 
nuisance. When a problem confronts 
me I sit on the fence, look it over and 
think over it before I go to work on it, 
and I generally find it astonishingly 
more easy of accomplishment when I go 
rightly at it, than at first appeared; and 
I might say I like the thinking part best.

SPAVIN CURE 
Can Be Applied During the Hottest Weather. 
NOTE OUR CLAIM:—“IT IS INFALLIBLE.” 
Let there be no mistake or misunderstanding as to 
this point. It makes no difference how long stand¬ 
ing, what the condition, or if all other known treat¬ 
ment has failed, this remedy will positively effect a 
cure. This statement will appear absurd to the 
sceptic, but it is absolute and inviolable truth, and 
we put it in no stronger words than facts, actual ex¬ 
perience—results—confirm It contains the great es¬ 
sential principle to promote the complex prooess of 
absorption. It will raise a scurf or mild blister, but 
it is not by blistering a cure is effected. The great 
potency of ‘ Save-the-Horse” lies in its concen¬ 
trated penetrating absorptive power. It penetrates 
to the seat of tue injury or disease, produces a 
physiological change, absorbing all Inflammatory 
exudate or deposit, stimulating and diffusing vital¬ 
ity and strength to the tissues and ligaments, pro¬ 
ducing a healthy, normal condition of the part. Can 
be applied during the hottest weather.
