Mrs. Ellen Naplo, 4114tli street, Clreen j

' I liavo often heard IVruna praised J
end it is more widely known here than [
iin.v other medicine, but 1 never knew j
what a splendid medicine it really was j
until a few weeks offo \\ hen 1 caught u
liud cold which settled all over me.
"The doctor wanted to prescribe, lint I
I told him I was going to try Perunu
nod sent for a bottle and tried it.
"I felt much better the next morning ■
and within five days 1 had not a trace
of any lameness or un.v cough.

THE CACKLE OF THE HEN.
As an indication of wealth the cackle
Dt the ben has all other noises beat.
The noise slia makes every year
sounds like $.100,000,000 which is some
120,000,000 more than that of any
wealth producer, King Cotton being
second.
Defying drouth or boll weevils the
egg crop comes out every year with
unceasing regularity and without the
aid of government experts or experi-
ment farms. The little red or brown
Dr dominecker hen known her own
business and goes about It without
any outside advice. The annual poul-
try crop is more valuable than wheat
Dr corn or cotton, and surpasses the
revenue derived from the mining of
any mineral.
Some man who had plenty of time
on his hands has figured it all out
and says that if all the hens' eggs laid
lu tlio United States annually were
srated, allowing 3G0 to the crate, they
would fill over 43,000,000 crates. A
train of refrigerator cars to accommo-
date this vast quantity would be made
up of 107,818 cars and would be nine
miles In length.
Of course part of the praise is due
to the modern incubator which, though
a valuable aid as a hatching appara-
tus, will never be of any use from an
egg producing standpoint. At best
the incubator 4s but an aid to the hen,
and if our biddies ever go on a strike
this country will suffer more than It
would from nn entire failure of the
cotton crop.—Texas Stockman-Journal.

Don't wait for the fruit tree man
to come around. It Is a better plan
to go to the nursery yourself, and
then and there pick out a few more
trees than you think you have room
for. Then as soon as you can get
them plant them in every nook and
corner. Remember that the land In
the eorners costs as much as it does
anywhere else, and you ought to get
the use of it and not turn it over to
noxious weeds and insects.
There Is no better educational
school in the line of progressive dc
velopment than the county fairs. En-
courage them; the business men of
the towns where they are held can
well afford to offer prizes for the best
products of the soil, the pasture and
the barnyard. This is the very best
sort of education; it is teaching by
object lesson. Let every Union man
take hold of his county fair and whoop
it up to the limit.
No man can be a very good man
who lets his stock stand ont in all
sorts of weather without any sort of
protection. Such a man ought to be
fired out of the Union, or else disci-'
pllned into decency by being compell-
ed to be out a night or two In tho
suaking, icy rains of winter.
Tho farmer—the real thing fatyner
—Is not concerned about the two-cent
faro movement. He Is not a traveler,
and has but litite interest in tl\e trav-
eling question. Now, if you want to
tickle him, talk about cutting the ,
freight rates about one-thtrd, and he'll j
come to tho trough quick.
Now that the winter Is about upon
us, It is a better time than ever to
light the Implement and vehicle trusts ;
by putting away all your tools, Imple-
| ments nnd vehicles whero they will
escape tho winter's ruinous weather.
AMERICA FOF/ AMERICANS.
The National Fa'mers" Union In Its
annual convention at Little Itock, Ark.,
passed a resolution condemning for-
eign emigration into this country and
demanding that it bu stopped.
Such a resolution as tills, and in
such a body of tho citizens of this
country as composed this convention
of the Farmers' National Union, Is ol
the utmost significance, showing tho
trend of sentiment iti the hearts and
minds of the mighty masses of this
land, the masses that shapo the poli-
cies of this country, who direct its
destinies whenever they lake upon
themselves to speak out and express
their will upon any vlial question,
making It an issue.
This convention was made up of
the very best men, farmers, typical
and representative citizens of their re-
spective States—men who, when they
speak do so from their honest anil
earnest convictions and with the de-
termination to do what they propose
to do. These men were the delegates
from tho Farmers' Union of their re-
spective States aijd they came as far
away as Oregon and Washington, from
Illinois and Indiana, from Kansas, Ok-
lahoma and Indian Territory, and from
every Southern State—from all the
great Southwest. They were the rep-
resentatives of and spoke for more
than 2,000,000 farmers of thlB great
country, banded together to declare
the rights that are theirs as sover- :
eigns of the soil, as American clti- j
zens, and they are going to accom- !
plish every end they have in view,
not one of which is not founded upon !
the eternal verities of right, justice,
truth, honesty and the Golden Rule.
In this matter of foreign emigration,
history is simply repeating itself, in a
measure. Years ago an attempt was
made to prevent foreign emigration.
The New England States, filled with
manufactories, wanted cheap labor,
wanted the pauper element of Europe
to fill this country to overflowing,
that they might obtain labor for their
mills and .factories for a song. They
killed the movement.
Every manufacturing Interest and
trust interest—every corporate inter-
est In this entire Union of States,
stands today clamoring for increased
immigration and laxer laws regulat-
ing the introducliou of emigrants for
the same reasons that actuated the
New England people. The coal mines
of tho laud are filled with labor lm- I
ported from the overcrowded, congest-
ed countries of Europe. The street
car system of New York is already
manned by cheap foreign labor. In-
deed, this cheap and unreliable for-
eign labor is gradually taking all the
places where labor is needed.—The
Co-Operator.
YOUR DEBT TO THE HORSE.
When tho writer was given his first
team he was told to curry the horses
morning and night. It is surprising :
what a rubbing down, after a hard j
day's work, will do in keeping a team 1
in condition. If you want to keep
your team fat, sleek aud ready at all
times for hard work, here is the reci-
pe. Let oats be the main grain, water .
regularly, feed bright timothy or up-
land hay, curry and brush thoroughly
every morning, and at night curry,
brush and rub. That is all there is
to it. Use a large piece of flannel !
for rubbing down the legs. Keep this
up regularly and your team will be
as sleek as moles and fit for the hard-
est kind of service.—Stockman and 1
Farmer.
JUST WHAT HE WANTED.
Surely Here Were Musical Tastes
Enough to Suit Anybody.
A gentleman of the most cultivated
musical tastes, wishing to change his
residence, advertised for rooms in a
private family "fond of music." The
next mail brought him the follow-
ing reply:
"Dear Sir: I think wo could accom-
modate you with rooms, and as for
music one of my daughters plays tho
parlor organ and gittar; another one
plays tho accordeon and banjo; I play
tho cornet and fiddle; by wife plays
the harmonica and my son the flute.
We all sing and if you are good at
tenner singing you would fit right in
when we get to singing gospel hims
evenings, for none of us sings tenner.
Or if you plays the base vial we have
one right here in the house. If you
want music as well as rooms and
board we could accommodate you atid
there would be no extra charge for it.

FAMILY'S SKIN TROUBLES.
Eczema, Heat Rash, and Scalp Affec-
tions Afflict Different Members,
But Cuticura Cures Them.
"My wife had eczema for five or six
years. It was on her face and would
come and go. We thought wo would
give the Cuticura Remedies a trial. We
did so and she has never had a sign of
eczema for four years. I myself used
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment
Bome time ago for falling hair. I now
have a very heavy head of hair. We
used Cuticura Remedies for our baby,
who was nearly bald when young. She
has very nice hair now. She is very
fleshy, and we had so much trouble
with heat that we would bathe her
with Cuticura Soap and then apply
Cuticura Ointment, it would dry the
heat up so much quicker than any-
thing else. Mr. H. B. Springmire, 323
So. Capital Street, Iowa City, la., July
16, 1905, and Sept. 10, 1906."

DEFIANCE STIRM
The strength of the movement to
j eliminate the sale of liquor from our
modern commerce finds its baokbono
among the farmers. They will never
bo the constituents of an anti-liquor
party, but the majority of the mem-
I hers of that following are opposed to
1 the trade.
It Is the process of elimination that
Is used by nature in the construction
i of all her great works. Nature abhors
1 a vacuum, so before you begin to tear
I down any structure be sure that a
better thing Is to take Its place. Be
a builder.
Labor's reward depends very much
upon tho practical common sense of
i the man who Is doing the labor. That
Is the reason for the first wor I In
the name of the Farmers' Union—
educational
i The action of the Galveston bankers
in asking that cotton be 6ent there
where advances would be made upon
It, when other points had failed to find
money to advance, shows that this
; matter of getting money is, after all,
1 only a matter of Intelligent effort.
I There Is as much money In the coun-
try as there has ever been, and it will
not long He Idle.
Yoit don't havo to stop to remem-
ber that no man docs another an In-
Jury without suffering some time and
somewhere the result of the work of
wrong wrought in his own uharacter.
We again urge the necessity for tho
mo3t careful selection of seed corn
for the next planting. Exhibits at tho
recent^Dallas, Texas State Fair show-
ed almo: ! every variety, size and col-
or, it seemed, that could be produced.
It was evident that some of the ex-
hibits did not pay to raise, while oth-
ers from size, color and perfect ful-
ness of grain must have produced
crops of doub!> and treble the value
of some shown.
It is said that the spoiling bee Is a
mighty popular sort of entertainment
with many of the Unions. To tell the
truth, the spelling bee is about as
good a form of both entertainment
and education at one and the same
time as has ever been hatched out.
Don't you know that it is a life and
death struggle for the speculators lo
kill the warehouse plan? Well, of
course we are going to have a light
with the knife and the knife to tho
hill Gird tip and let us clean out
tho den of thieves who have been
standing between us and the mills
and demanding their pound of flesh
from both of 11s.
Time Sometimes Flie3 So.
"Mabel," asked the dear girl's moth-
er, "what time did that young man
.eave last night?"
"Why," replied Mabel, "I believe It
was nearly 11 o'clock."
"What? I am sure it was later than
:hat," said the mother.
"How strange!" remarked Mabel,
Ireamlly. "We both thought it could-
n't possibly be that late."—The Catho-
lic Standard and Times.
Don't Be Irritable.
"An irritated skin makes an irritable
person, and an irritable person gath-
ers much trouble unto himself or
herself as the case may be. Moral:
Use Hunt's Cure, one box of which is
absolutely and unqualifiedly guaran-
teed to cure any form of skin trou-
ble. Any kind of itching known is re-
lieved at once and one box cures."
Finance.
"Sammy," said a Germantown moth-
er recently to her youngest-born,
"When you divided those seven pieces
of candy with your brother did you
give him four?"
"No, ma'am," replied Sammy, "I
knew they wouldn't come out even,
so I ate one before I began to di-
vide."—Harper's Weekly.

Such an offer has never before been made and may never bo

Thore arc two classes of people.
These are those engaged in doing
things, and those who are not of any
use to the world. Fix it up as you
may in your mind, the fact still stands
out, that those who are not doing
something are "doing" somebody.
Learn to so handle your business that
you be not the one who is "done," for
you will not have too good a time if
you get the fullest re. ulta of your

Farmers own the cotton, and if the
fellows who do not own it, and who
do not want it, except to speculate
011, are utterly dir-n g ti ded, it will be
only a little while until the owners
of the staple get the price they ask
for it It is a common sense proposi-
tion that if one man has something
somebody needs and wants, that the
buyer must come to the sellci and
buy; und -o long as a prohibitive
price is not asked, the seller may
name the price. It will not be long
until the stock on hand in the mills
will be exhausted, and then the pric#
will have to get on the move.
