There will be decided reforms In the
conduct of the liquor business In this
country, to offset the onslaughts of
the "drys," if the United States Brew-
ers' association has its way. Members
of the association representing about
75 per cent of the beer business of
the country are In attendance at the
annual meting convened tomorrow at
the Hotel Shelburne.
One of the most Interesting reports
before the convention will be that
Colonel Jacob Ruppert, Jr., who re-
cently made a tour of investigation
through the prohibition States of the
South and West. Commenting on the
result of his observations, he said:
"I found that the spread of prohi-
bition tendencies in the West a.id
South is ill-considered and hasty. Dis-
astrous results, economical and moral,
have followed in its wake.
"No doubt in the West and South,
as elsewhere, there are objectionable,
law-breaking, disorerly saloons and
hotels, these places could have been
exterminated by the enforcement of
existing law or by public opinion
strongly asserted, Instead of restrict-
ing the liberty of entire communi-
ties.
"Public moralitv was not improved
What I especially noticed In these dry
States was the inordinate drinking of
liquors In the homes.

ting in against the prohibition craze.

acres planted to that grain throughout

the size and armament of the Illinois, so
that no other nation on the globe would
have even a look in when it came to

nation's oats crop for the past eight
years and the American farmer could
lay on the table a dollar for every dol-
lar every railroad president in America,
Africa, Asia anu Australia could lay
down for every receipts from every
source of revenue.
But these big things do not tell the
tale. Twenty-six farmers in the oats
belt, interrogated as to the cost of rais-
ing oats, reported the average expense
per acre as follows:
Three bushels of seed $1.58
Preparing the ground 1.45
Harvesting y. 1.22
Stacking 50
Threshing . 1.20
Rent and repairs 4.19
Total ...$10.14
Taking Iowa's yield in 1908 and the
average price of oast, an acre's crop
brings the farmer $9.55, leaving a loss
for each acre of fifty-nine cents. On
the 32,000,000 acres planted to the grain
in the whole country the total loss would
be $18,8S0,000.—From "Making Oats Self

A LESSON FOR AMERICA.
Now that Persia Is one of the storm
centers of the world it is worth while
to take heed of certain conditions
that ancient kingdom which may well
give Americans something to ponder
long and deeply In connection with
their own country's problems. They
see one of the most powerful and
famous regions of the world of lon«
ago so reduced in strength that a small
Russian army, with a few hundred
Cossacks for its vanguard, is able to
penetrate without much opposition to
one of the most important cities of
Persia. It is not a condition due wholly
to changes in the fiber of the Inhabi-
tants. It Is not the result of religion or
of long subjection to other states. Per-
sia has been Independent for many cen-
turies. Its faith is militant.
The main source of weakness is the
sparse population, the encroachments
of the deserts and the arid lands, the
decay of industries upon which pros-
perity depended In the ages of Persian
power nd splendor. Persia is a tre-
mendously impressive object lesson of
the dire effects of deforestation—the
loss of the woods and the drying up of
the streams' which depended upon the
forests for their water supply.—Cleveland
Leader.
tlon If she wants it. The report was not
confirmed, however.
The Joplln team was not supported
by the people of that town. .Toplin Is a
town of 40,000 and at some home games
there was only two or three hundred
people present. Joplln fans will have
to wake up and take notice if they want
to keep the team.
OATS ARE MADE TO PAY
For the first time in the history of
agriculture growing oats is to be made
profitable and this In face of the fact
that the oats crops in the United States
In the pass eight years have been suf-
ficient to pay the iterest and non-in-
terest bearing debt of the nation twice
over.
The average American partaking of
his matutinal porridge has never real-
ized that the American farmer has
raised the oats which forms the bulk
of the breakfast foods at a financial
loss. But such has been the case. I-ast
year Iowa planted 4,200,000 acres of oats
and reaped a crop of 108,900,000 bushels
of an aspregate farm value of $41,382,-
000; while Illinois raised 101,675,000
bushels of an average farm value of
$41,687,000. These Immense totals would
seem to indicate profit. Give one year's
oats crop of Oowa and Illinois to a rail-
road president and he could add 2.686
sleeping care or 4,632 day coaches to the
rolling stock of nls railroad. Or Rive to
Uncle Sam the $334,568,000 secured from
For a railroad to be suddenly compell-
ed by the United States government to
build a $200,000 drawbridge over a
foot strip cf dry ground is a situation
which might be very properly summariz-
ed In the words "hard luck."
To boil a long story of a stubborn con
test down to the fewest words, the gov-
ernment finally declared the lost channel
still technically existent and navigable
and granted the 'orporatlon the pllvflege
of dredging It out to a sufficient deptn
to allow the passage of a sea going v
sel. Then the railroad was ordered to
build an adequate drawbridge across the
navigable strip of apparent terra flrma.

The child of today is the parent of
tfce future and whether it grows up
healthy and strong, or puny and weak,
tlepends upon the Intelligence of its
parents, for most children are born
into the world healthy, but thousands
become future weaklings between birth
and the age of ten, when the parnts
are still in greatest control.
The prime cause of trouble is in the
stomach. A baby that is digesting its
food seldom cries and always looks cheer-
ful; the little child whose stomach is
good romps and plays and never whines;
the growing child learns well at school
and is eafcer for fun if its head la cl.,- r

if it has no constipation.
The best and safest way to cure any
Irregularity of the stomach and bowels
in children is by the use of Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin. This is a liquid laxative
wonderful In Its effect as Mrs. John W.
Dunham, Apple Creek. O., Mrs. H. D.

others can testify who give it to their
children with extraordinary results.
A bottle only costs 50 cents or $1 ac-

amount of good in a family. It can be
given to any member of the family n

torpid liver, dyspepsia, heartburn, sick

It never gripes or strangles like pills,

Faultless Prescription
No Remedy for Stomach Distress and
Indigestion so Perfect.
A scientific prescription for dyspepsia
put up in small tablet form and called
Ml-o-mv is making thousands of quick
and lasting cures throughout America.
There is no stomach disease (even ca-
tarrh of the stomach) that it is not
guaranteed to cure and F. B. Lillie has so
much faith in Mi-o-na for stomach dis-
orders of all kinds that he will refund
your money If It does not cure.
Ml-o-na. the faultless prescription,
stops sour stomach, belching of gas. dis-
tress after eating, heartburn, bilious-
ness and nervousness.
It is well worth a trial by nny reader
of the State Capital who suffers from
any stomach disturbance. It contains
Ingredients that not only give relief but
that act on the stomach so beneficially
that In a short time the flabby, tired out
walls of the stomach regain tneir
strength and activity.
Try Mi-o-na for a week: misery will
change to happiness; despair to hope,
dull eyes to bright and you will yourself
wonder why you suffered to long with
such a remarkable prescription at hand.
And only 50 cents for a large box at

HONEY BEES PROFITABLE
Honey does not Injure the teeth as can-
dy does It Is an excellent remedy for
most of the lung and throat affections
and Is a good substitute for cod liver
oil. Honey Is a laxative and sedative
and is especially valuable in cases of
bladder and kidney diseases.
Thousands of bees pour in and out of
the hives many times a day; thousand*,
more swarm over the combs, each un-
trammeled by rules and with no set task
No bee works for Itself; the multitude
works as though it were one bee.
If you desire to advertise your honey
and work up a trade, place your name
and nddress on every package. Labels
are all right for glass jars, but for comb
honey either have a printed cartoon or
stamp your name on the section with a
rubber stamp. If you are capable of
producing a fancy article you deserve the
dlt for it and all of the trade there is
to be had. There is nothing like estab-
lishing a good, honest reputation for
yourself. Do this and your honey will
sell itself.
One day while working in the apiary a
gentleman watched me. He was anxious
to know how I mannged to get the hon-
ey from the hives. He asked, "Was it
at night when all the bees are asleep?"
That, of course would be the very worst
time of all, for bees know nothing about
sleep, but work twenty-four hours a day
There is plenty of work for them to do
In the hive at night, such as evaporat-
ing the honey, building comb, etc.
It is the custom of bee keepers gener-
ally to select warm and clear days in
which to perform the operation of the
hive. The older bees that constitute the
field force are out then In quest of nectar
and pollen and h© manipulations are
more easily performed.
Bees that are swarming or those that
are out in the fields gathering nectar and
pollen very seldom volunteer an attack.
Of course, a bee hive should not be
pulled apart every fe wdays for mere cu-
riosity, but examined only occasionally
to ascertain progress.
Why do bees swarm, anyway? Why
don't they settle down and stick to their
knitting instead of breaking up he
keeping Just at a time when everyt
begins to look prosperous? Well.
fact is prosperity breeds discontent, and
i.ie old home is becoming too crowded
Besides, it Is nature's way of providing
Increase and prolonging the race. Provl
dence has given the honey bee this In-
stinct.
