The General Demand

of the Wcll-Iaformed of the World ha3 always been for a simpl-?, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of knoTm valuo; a laxative which physicians could sanction for family use because its com ponent part3 aro known to them to be holesomo and truly beneficial in effect. acceptable to the system end gentle, yet prompt, in action. In supplying that demand with its excellent combination of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relie3 on the merits of the laxative for its remarkable success. Thrt i3 cne of many reasons why Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna 13 given the preference by the AVell-Informed. To get its beneficial effects always buy the genuine manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle. Ttt Culture of Wheat. At Pullman, in the State of Washington, there is in connection with the State Agricultural College an experiment farm where are now growing more than 1,000,OCO different kinds of grain that are to be separately cut, thrashed, storied and bagged this season. Many of these are hybrid varieties of wheat, crossed fourteen years ago by Professor Spillman, now in the S3rvlcc of the United States government. The tracts sown o the several kinds vary from one to five acres in extent. In the intervening years these several varieties have been carefully sowed, the best seed selected and sown again nntil properly establishe!. This season Is the first In which any large amount of seed has boen secured, which will be thrashed and distributed to farmers who desire to test the new kinds. It will be sold at a good price to cx'er the large expense involved in the long culture. The new varieties are not yet named. but will bo before distribution. Some combine early maturity with hardiness or good milling qualities and each has some definite quality or qualities that are reckoned desirable. The object, of course, is the development of varieties that will prove of most advantage to the fanners of that State. The Improvement of the wheat crop is a matter of the highest Importance to agriculturists and a1 so to bread caters. Böston Ucrald. WRITS TO FATHER. I have been running an engine on the Nickel Plate K. R. for twenty-three years. I have been afflicted -with a very bad case of ASTHMA, disabling me many times from performing my duties as fnglnesr as Ions as four weeks at a time. Last December I was having a very bad pell when I was induced to try Father's Lung Elixir. Jhe result wai a very happy surprise. It gave me relief Intsde of twenty-six hours and In four days I was back on my regular run and have been making it ever since. I cheerfully recommend this valuable remedy and urge upon every asthmatic to at least try one bottl for It will give srreat relief almost from the first dose. Sincerely yours. Charles F.

Fisk, who came io Oregon from Colorado a few years ago and settled on a . farm near Wilhoit Springs, was the first man to start the production of ginseng on a large scale in this State, so far as is known, and the returns he is promised for his crop this ytar aro such as to make even the most favored of the Ilood River apple growers fivious. Mar's Levy, the commission man, who haa just returned after a sojourn of ten days at Wilhoit Springs, brings some Interesting information regarding the growers of this latest agricultural product in this vicinity of the springs He says that Mr. risk's ranch is but a fewmiles from the springs and that he has there growing a most promising crop of tlrs high-priced root, which Is famed for its medicinal properties and so much In demand among the Chinese that they are willing to pay almost fabulous prices for it Some Idea of the profits possible In the culture of ginseng may be gained from the statement of Mr. Fislc that

THE BATTLE-FIELDS.

OLD SOLDIERS TALK OVER ARMY EXPERIENCES. The Bine and the Gray rtevlevr Incidents of the Late War, anil In n Graphic and I attest Ins Manner Tell of C.imp, March and Dattlc. After the great French victory of irsterlltz. Napoleon's troop found, while pursuing the enemy, a boy 2 or 3 years old. last or deserted by his parents, n.e child was brought before General Iternadotte, who ordered that diligent Pfarch Fhould . made among the neighboring ;M.T.u;e and farmhouses for some trace I it? parents. No relatives cuining forward to claim this waif of war, however, Beruadotte placed him in charge of one of his vivandiers, and soon the little fellow became the pet of the army. Napoleon, resting for the first time in days, at the castle of Uarou von Kaunitz, heard of the boy, and commanded that he siould be brought before him. The result was that the great emperor practically adopted Johann ; for the child was just able to li?p that his name was Johann, without casting any further light upon his identity. Napoleon conferred upon him (ho full name of Jean de "vajruerre. or "John of the War," and Je in was sent to Paris to be educated. hen the emperor was exiled to Elba, General Iiernadotie, who had in the meantime been electeil King of Sweden, brought Jean de Laguerre to Stockholm and gave him a commission In the army. lie eventually became Swedish Minister to Germany and a Count of Sweden. The family which he founded is still well known in Seandanavia, but Jean de Laguerre never suc-ceeded in discovering who his parents were or how he came to be left behind on the field of Austerlitz. Such discoveries of babies amid the scenes of war and death are by no means uncommon. During the American civil war a notable Instance occurred. A baby, beautifully dressed, was found by the Confederate troops in the debatable region along the Itomac during the heat of the strife. There was nothing to identify the infant or to tell the side to which its parents had belonged. Eventually a Confederate t-oldler obtained leave to adopt il; -;irl for a girl it happened to be . the earliest opportunity she v. -y means of a mule trans port coi, o his wife's home, in Georgia. Alter the war, advertisements were inserted In northern and southern newspapers regarding the child, but isobody came forward to claim her. She grew up into a handsome and clever woman and, a few yeirs ago, married Thomas E. Watson, of Georgia, who wa the Populist onndid ite for the vice-presidency In the last election. Mrs. Watson believes that her parents were Confederate sympathizers and that tbey perished during the war. In the revolution a somewhat similar Incident occurred. A baby was found by the British under Colonel Tarlcton, nor could It3 Identity be discovered. It was brought up by a family named Olbbs, and rose to fame as Lieutenant Colonel Fenwick. , A baby was found on the battle-field of Waterloo, but In th.s ca the child's father u. rrfhT wer known. The mother had died a few days before in Brussels, while the father, a soldier of the Eighty-Seventh Cameron Highlanders, -fell in the 'great fight. Little Donald Cameron managed to escape from the transjwrt wagon, where he had been stowed, and had strayed into serious danger before he, was noticed and caught by an olticer In an Irish regiment. Whether the terrorsof Waterloo made an evil impression upon little Donald or not, he steadfastly refused to enlist, although his an stors for generations had been soldiers." Instead, be became a "guard on the London and Northwestern railroad, and died a member of the Peace Society, in . Birmingham, last summer. Two years ago a Russian ollicer of good family was married In St. I'eters- : burg to a young lady whoso parents no body knew, but who had no less than 000 foster fathers. Her foster fathers were the soldiers of a regiment which had found her as a baby lying, abandoned by her relatives, on the road rom Plevna to Constantinople. The soldiers put together a handsome purse for the young bride's dowry. To come down to our own times, n little Afrldl baby was found by the British troops In Northern India, after a skirmish with the hill trib.es. The British did not w.sh to leave the little fellow on the field of battle, and took him with them on the march. Later on, when returning, they left It on the exact spot where It had been originally found. They were rewarded for their pains. After an hour or two had passed by, a band of Afridis descended j from the hills and carried the baby away. Probably the dusky urchin, in view of his strange experience, will be greatly looked up to by his tribesmen and become a great leader and a thorn in the side of his British preservers. Chicago Inter Ocean. netired List for Volunteer. Congress, at Its next session, will have before It for action a bill to cre ate a volunteer retired list for survlvi fug officers of the army, navy and ma rine corps of the Civil War. The measure was Introduced last January by Congressman Dawes of Ohio, but did not reach a vote. During the past summer the idea of retiring at half or three-fourths pay officers who served with honor and credit for one year or more during the Civil War has gained ground throughout the country, and Congress wnl. without doubt, be In a mood to grant the relief asked by the few surviving ofhers of the most destructive war through which the nation has ever passe!. The landing bill provides that the name of each surviving ofticcr of volunteer may be entered on a roll to be known as the volunteer retired list, pro vided that each one so entered shall have served not less than no year In the ,leld with troops between April 1.". 18G1, tnd July 1", 1SC"; snail bae be?n honorably discharged; shall not belong to the regular army; or, If lot in the service In the field for a year, must fur nish evidence of discharge from service becau of wounds received In battle. It Is provided that each applicant shall be entered as of the highest rank held by him while serving in the voluntee army and that he receive one-half pay at the age of GO years and threefourths pay at the age of 70 years, according to his actual rank, which pay

shall be the s-rvme as that received by retired otlkers of like rank in the regular army, provided that the retired pay of no otiioer shall exceed tlu fud p.iy of captain of I he cavalry of the regular army. Every ivrson who Iwcomes a beneficiary of this act will Ih required to reiinipjish anj- pension whLh he may now enjoy. The largest sum that will be paid to any one mau under this regulation is $2,HiO a year. It Is estimated that, the law, if passed at onoe. will affect 10.000 veteran otiicers. These will be, most of them, be low the rank of eoloncl. Of the 131 major generals of volunteers who served during the war. and who would be affected by the proposed measure, only two are now living, and of the ZA'J brigadier generals who thus served, only twenty-eight survive. There is precedent for the letirlng of volunteer olficers on pay, in the treatment, by tiio people, and the United States Congress, of tha officers of the Revolutionary War. Grants of great tracts of land were made to these officers, and. May IT, 1S2S, surviving o!lioers of the continental line were placed on the retired list on full pay not to exceed the pay of a captain, said pay to begin March 3. 1S20. Later, on June 7, 1S32. all surviving officers of the Revolutionary army who had not leen provided for by the former law were, under certain provisions as to service, placed upon full pay of their rank, for life, not to cvced the pay of a captain. The general discussion of this measure by the press of the country reveals a cordial feeling toward It ou the part of the public, and everything looks bright for the veteran volunteer officers who led thrlr men to victory, fighting like seasoned soldiers until peace had been compelled, literally, by force of arms, to make her home in a half riven and distracted country. Then, when the tumult and the strife was over, these men. most of them, entered civil life again ami too k up the occupations they had laid down at the dawn of war. Many of these Invaluable leaders are spending their age in dependence uion their children, or in n weary battle for bread, in the rash of modern professional or industrial life. That the nation should remember them at this time in a substantial manner Is certainly fitting. Most of those who come under the provisions of this bill were of matur; years when they entered ihe army. They are, most of them, in the seventies or the eighties, now, and the snort list of their names will soon dwindle to the vanishing point. Chicago Journal.

Siw Lincoln Hilled. Tassing the evening of his life la southern California Is Henry Guard, one of the few surviving witnesses of the assassination of President Lincoln. Mr. Guard says the recollections ol that awful night of April 14, 1SGÖ, will haunt him as long as life lasts. At the close of the war, when Gen Grant transferred his headquarters tc Washington, Guard says he went to the capital to visit his brother. Arriving at the seat of government ou April 14 he was attracted to Ford's Theater to witness the production of "Our American Cousin." ecurlng a seat within ten feet of the stage, he had a good view of Wilkes Booth, as well as of President and -Mrs. Lincoln, who occupied a box. When the curtain fell he beard a pistol shot, but at first believed it to bo a part of the play. When he saw a man, who was afterward discovered to be Booth, jiunp from the President's box to the stage, ho realized that tragedy was being enacted. Two flags draped the President's box, and as Booth made the leap his foot caught in the colors and Guard saw the murderer fall to the stage with a broken ankle. Before tlic crowd knew what had really haijponed Booth had made his way tc the rear of the stage and escaped in the darkness. Guard says he saw tlic head of the martyred President fal' listlessly upon his breast as Mrs. Lin coin was led from the theater In : feinting condition. Guard served throughout th? wai with the Fifty-third Illinois, was a pri or.er at Andersonville, and Is now mak ing his Iiome In Los Angeles. Kansa City Star. III Nntaral Pace.

In some of the various evolutions oi the drill it was necessary for t'3 cadet to trot. This gait Ilountsell failed t adopt, and was reported to the superin tendent, with the specification, "foi failing to trot" Ilountsell handed ir his written excuse as follows: "I am reported by Major Jacksor for falling at artillery drill, to trot My excuse Is, I rua a natural pacer."

w 1 In jelecting apple trees choose young vigorous trees, not over two years old from the graft. As long as the brood sow is prolific, a good suckler and a earefid mother, she Is too young to be "sacrificed for an uncertainty. Because a hog wilt seemingly thrive on stale food and that bordering on deoomiosition. it does not follow that this is the best kind of feed for them. Exposed manure, nvording to the Canadian experimental farm test, loses about one-sixth of its phosphoric acid and more than one-third of Its phoslha to. Skimmilk is more valuable as a hog food when mixed with ground grain, shorts or something of the kind. The ernln also ("iocs the hog more good than If fed without the milk. About the most profitable animal on the farm now is the sheep. At prcf ent prices, and even a little lower, they are the easiest and best money, yet do not put all the eggs In the one basket. The row's stomach is not a complete ütralner that separates all good from all bad; and all kinds of food cannot be given to a cow with full expectancy that she can from It give an absolutely pure milk. The soil is the stomach or plants. Tn the soil the food Is received and digested. On the quantity and quality of food put in the plant's stomach depends its welfare, just as much as you depend uion the food In your stomach.The advantage of using the separator over the old plan of settling the milk consists in the uniformity and certainty of the results, the saving of labor, time and storage room, ease of management and as a result of these economy. Men who handle pure-bred stock and who use printed stationery ought to have printed directions, telling where the farm Is located and its direction from the nearest railroad station. This might bring many a buyer who would not otherwise visit the farm. On the tract of 3f0 acre? purchased by-ho State, near Madison, Ind., for tlv Southern Hospital for insane peopple, Is a fine fifty-acre .orchard of Winesap. Grimes, Transparent and other cjood apples, and the crop was bought by a Lafayette dealer for $2.G0O. Ordinarily there 1 no advantage In high roosts rnd the fowls will do better and keep healthier If the perches rre not more than three feet above the f!f.or. Of course all the slats should bo on a level, as this avoids crowding and fighting for the highest positions. If !ou are not using a low-down wagon you are doing a whole lot of unnecessary liftiug. For hauling fodder or corn for the silo, the low-down ngon fits exactly. It Is good, too, for hauling out manure, If you do not have a spreader. According to an exchange, a townswoman who recently visited in thw? country fainted dead away twice In he hostess' kitchen. Once when she saw her put at least a pound of buttor on mashed jotatoes and once when she saw" her using real cream In making a chicken gravy. A farmers' club in northern Illinois has 1cmi formed for the sole purpose of looking after the roadways In tb district. It has been proposed that clover or alfalfa be sown, each fiirmwr seeding the strip adjacent to his owy land, and then each one is hound to keep his strip clear of weeds. When oats and other grain having a liberal percentage of protein are scarce and high, horses doing hard work will do well on -orn If fed In connection with a liberal proportion c,f cjover or alfalfa hay. In fact, some horses doing regular work have ben and are fed on clover or alfalfa hy with no grain and do well. If one wants to have green corn ii the table long after frost, let him pla.it pome sugar corn very late in the season so it will be iu the milk just abojt frost. Before frost falls pull up tue stalks by the roots, with dirt on thejn and store them In a cellar, where it Is pretty damp. It will keep this wyy for weeks. As far south as St. Loris It !s possible to have gnen corn In tI.Ls way well Into November. Immature Corn for Coin. Trials at the Vermont station shi-w that there is no material difference In milk-producing value between iinn.ature and mature corn fodder when compared on the basis of dry matter. The same results were secured wth Bllago made from mature and Immature corn. A pound of dry matter of the immature corn produced Ihe same results as a pound of dry matter of the mature corn. This suggests tlpt If corn Is cut too early the faruyr losen too many pounds, and en trie other hand If cut too late too much In the way of coarse butts is wasted. Sepnrnfor Minimien Wante. As a reference for those who rc.y desire to know how much Gutter to expect from milk. It may be mentloi.ed that no correct average can be glv .-n, as milk from different cows varies. Milk containing 3 per cent of but'-er fat will make about one pound of better from twenty-nine iounds (alx.ut thirteen and one-haV quarts) of mi.k. Ore quart of milk weighs "15 pon,,sMilk containing 13 per cent of soh Is should contain about 4 per cent of fat, per cent of albumen and 5V per cent of milk sugar, ash, etc. The average amount of butter fat In cream Is about 22 per cent The separator method of handling cream occasions less waste than by the old method. An ounce of salt Is the allowance for one pound of butter. .Milk of Svrl (innt.

nre practically immane from all diseases, which makes the milk a valuable factor when used by infants and Invalids. One man near Loomls Sanitarium at Liberty, N. Y., quotes that he is mi-king forty Swiss Toggenburg docs an?, that he cannot supply the demand for goats milk at 25 cents a quart. The avenu;e Swiss Toggenburg goat vriYf give two to four quarts a day ; sonr Instances are recorded where extra go'd milkers have given as high as seven quarts a day of milk equal in richnfs to twice the amount of cow's milk. Ar.jnra (ioat. All gonts are fairly good at cleaning fields of brush, but the Angora is especially adopted to this work. They seem to prefer the leaves and small twigs of bushes to grass, and strip them clean so that they die. A writer in a farm paper tells about the clearing of a field that had become overrun with hazel and other brush and which was entirely cleared of the brush in one season. This was done last year and this year not a single living bush can be seen, but the dead ones are In evidence all over the field. Nov. naturally, the gras$ has a chance and can make a reasonable growth. No doubt, it would pay on the average f fm of several hundred acres to keep a herd of goats to keep the fleld3 clean On many old farms the fields so soon become foul that It becomes a laborious as well as expensive undertaking to clear them. Whereas the goats can do it and make money for the owner at the same time. The ScedlrftN Apple. One of the hoary old frauds that comes up from age to age is the production of the so-called seedless apple. Some nurserymen have boomed the seedless apple ns though it was a new thing, one of the latest scientific dit covericf. As a matter of fact, it is one of the hoariest old frauds that was ever foisted upon a gullible and cording public, pays Wallace's Farmer. The seedless apple was described by a French nomologist in 102$. It was illustrated In several of the old horticultural documents of that century. These old writers refer io still earlier ones, like Pliny, who described the seedless, bloomless apple about the time of the Christian era. It was described Io IMS as having boon found In West Virginia, In 1870 as coming from Connecticut, with the statement that the crlginal tree had been bearing for fifty years: The miHlem phase of the seedless apple cmze occurred In 1S0O, after which It apparently went to sleep until quite recently. It will thus be seen that there Is a seedless apple, but that it Is no new thing. Professor Hansen, of the South Dakota Experiment Station, describes It 'as poor as any Ben Davis; keeps well, but when kept no one will eat it." Other ruthorltles give practically the Fame description. King Corn. In commenting on the National Corn Exposition recently held at Chicago, Orange Jndd Farmer says: There were about S.000 exhibits of corn on display. Taking the cuire exhibit Into consideration, the corn on the tables was probably the best ever shown at any exhibition. This is most remarkable, considering the unfavorable conditions which prevailed through the growing season. It would not bo possible to have anything like corn of the high quality shown were it not for th great advancement in breeding and cultivation of late. Pure bred varieties mature earlier and resist unfavorable weather conditions to a greater extent than the Inferior corn grown a fsw years ago. In the class open to the world the showing was wonderful. Prolnblv a third of the entire exhlb't was In this lot. Tin Illinois exhibit, as would naturally be expected, was very complete la white and yellow classes. Undoultfod!j however, the yellow varieties predominated, the majority of them being of the Reld type, This Is a remarkable uniform variety and of high scoring quality. The white samples were just iilK)ut as numerous, and many of them were of very excellent character, but ns show corn they did not compare quite as well as yellow corn. Outside of the white and yellow varieties shown by Iowa exhibitors there was an exceedingly fine showing of calico and red corn. In the catfle feeding States these varieties seem to he exceedingly popular. Dairy "Management. The Vermont Dairymen's Association has promulgated the following rules for the management of dairies: The stable should be well ventilated, lighted and drained; should have tljrtit floors and walks and should be plainly constructed. No musty fr dirty litter, no stroi;gsnielllng material and no manure should remain In the stable longer than is absolutely necessary. Whitewash the stable once or twice a year. Would recommend the use of land plaster In manure gutter dally. Feed no dry, dusty fodder previous to milking. If ?usty, sprinkle befc.ro It Is fed. Brush the udder just before milking and wlp0 with a clean cloth or sponge. Keep hereby cows. Promptly remove suspected animals. In particular, add no cows to the herd unless it Is certain that they nre free from tuber-, cudosis. Do not excife rows or expose them to stress oT weather. Feed a good cow liberally with fresh, palatab'e feeding stuffs. Do not change these suddenly. Provide water, pure, but not too cold. In abundance. The milker should be clean and Ids clothes likewise. Milk nuletly, quickly and thoroughly. Throw nwny Into the gutter the fiiPt few streams from each teat. This milk is very watery, of very little value and is quite apt to Injure the remainder of the milk. Ilemove the milk promptly from the stable to a clean, dry room where the air Is pure and sweet. Drain the milk through a clean flannel cloth, or through two or three thicknessps of cheesecloth. Aerate and cool the milk ns soon as It Is strained. The cooler It Is the more souring Is retarded. If covers are left off the cans, cover with cloth or nosqulto netting. Never mix fresh milk with that which has. been cooled, nor close n can containing wann milk, nor allow It to freeze.

Let me tell you why Sloan's Liniment and Veterinary Remedies are the safest and most practical on the market to-day. In the first place, Dr. Earl S. Sloan is the 3on of a veterinary surgeon, and from his earliest infancy he was associated with horses. He bought and sold horses while yet very young. He practiced as a veterinary for twenty years, and has battled successfully with every disease to which that animal Is subject. All his remedies are the result of experiments made to save life or relieve suffering while he was practicing bis j profession. Any reader, by writing to Dr. Earl S. Sloan, 51.j Albany street, Boston, Mass., will receive "Sloan's Treatise on the Horse," free. This book tells how to treat horses, cattle, hogs, and poultry. Prf!e for Children. A man has two hobbies. On one he spends $22.000 annually and the other costs him $(100 each year. One is air cooled and the other Is naturally cool. He takes one out nights aud the other ! goes out alone. One lias but one sparker aud the other has several. He cranks one and the other is self-cranky. Both are inconsistent and exceedingly unreliable. Which of the two hobbies is the man's wife and which is his automobile? Puck. Chocolate Tic!

There was a little joke between them (Disraeli and his wife) which I heard from the late dean of Salisbury. "You know I married you for your money," Disraeli would say to. her. "Oh, yes, but if you were to marry me again you svould marry me for love!" was the regular reply. "Oh, yes!" her husband Itvould exclaim, and the Pttle nuptial comedy ended. But what Disraeli said to Bemal Osborne once about his marriage is much better worth the telling. It was at a dinner party after dinner when the mea were alone. "What did you marry her for?" Osborne asked in his characteristic way. Disraeli twiddled his wineglass In the pause that followed this point blank Inquiry. Then he lifted his head slowly and looked the other very expressively in the face. "For a reason," he said, "which you could never understand gratitude." From "Lord .

How to Exercise the Bowels

Your Intestines are lined Inside with millions of little suckers, that draw the Nutrition out of food as it passes them. But, if the food passes too slowly, It decays before it gets through. Then the little suckers draw Poison from it instead of Nutrition. This Poison make3 a Gas that injures your system more than the food should have nourished It. You see, the food Is Nourishment or Poison. Just according to how long it stays In transit The usual remedy for this delayed passage (called Constipation) is to take a big dose of Castor Oil. ' This merely makes slippery the passage for unloading the current cargo. It does not help the Causn of delay a trifle. It does slacken the Bowel-Musclesmore than ever, and thus weakens them for their next task. Another remedy is to take a strong Cathartic, like Salts, Calomel, Jalap, Phospate of Sodium, Aperient Water, or any cf these mixed. What does the Cathartic do? It mere flushes-out ihe Bowels with a waste of Digestive Juice, set flowing into the Intestines through the tiny suckers. But, the Digestive Juice we waste in doing this today Is needed for tomorrow's natural Digestion. We cannot afford to lose lt. That's why Cascarets are the only safe medicine for the towels.
