BUSINESS BITS. 
WHEAT-sowing time is near at hand, 
and those desiring change of seed will 
do well to look into the value of Turkish 
Red, ottered by J. R. Ratekin & Son, 
Shenandoah, Iowa. It has the endorse¬ 
ment of every experiment station where 
tested, and it has a record of 55 bushels 
per acre at the Iowa Station, with an 
average yield of 45 bushels. 
It is seldom that such an opportunity 
is ottered to buy an ideal fruit and dairy 
farm as that of T. G. Yeomans & Sons, 
Walworth, N. Y., in this issue. It is un¬ 
usual to lind the conditions desirable for 
both fruit and stock on the same farm, 
but this one seems to combine them to the 
fullest extent. Anyone interested will do 
well to write for prices and particulars. 
Every year the larmer recognizes moie 
and more the value of corn crop for fod¬ 
der. if the crop is not put in a silo, the 
stalks are either cut or shredded as the 
next best means of preparing them for 
cow food. One of the very best cutters 
for either silage or dry fodder cutting is 
made by the Belcher <& Taylor A. 'T. Co., 
Box 76, Chicopee Falls, Mass. Write for 
full particulars, prices, etc. 
G. G. Brown, of Bristol, N. H., writes 
that he has used 'Tuttle’s Elixir in the 
diltereiit diseases in horses, and considers 
it the best horse medicine in the market. 
He has never failed of obtaining good re¬ 
sults in every case he has used it. Every 
man owning a horse should have a bottle 
of it in his stable. Write to Dr. S. A. 
'Tuttle, 30 Beverly St., Boston. Mass., for 
his book, "Veterinary Experience,’’ which 
he will send absolutely free. Dr. Tuttle 
is Boston's most prominent veterinarian, 
and his experience is valuable to every 
horse owner. 
'There is no farm implement of recent 
invention which contributes more to the 
comfort and convenience of the farmer 
than the blower - attachments for fodder 
and silage cutters, a pipe attachment de¬ 
signed to carry the cut fodder to any de¬ 
sired place. The continual annoyance 
from breakage and slipping of bells from 
the old-fashioned long carriers has been 
overcome by this device. The blower 
manufactured by the Belle City Manufac¬ 
turing Co. is especially popular for Its 
simplicity and the ease with which It may 
be adjusted to old or new machines. 
Write the Belle City Manufacturing Co., 
Racine, Wis., and get their latest printed 
matter on this line of machinery. 
The paroxysms ot Whooping Cough are at once 
relieved by Dr. D. Jayne’s Expectorant, and If this 
medicine Is continued, it almost invariably elTects a 
cure.—Adr.
