Its victims are always left in a weakened
condition — blood impure and impoverished;
nerves shattered. Pneumonia, heart disease
and nervous prostration are often the
result.
Or Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People will
drive every trace of the poisonous derms from
the system, build up and enrich the blood
and strengthen the nerves. A trial will
prove, this. ^ Read the evidence:
When thegrip last visited this section HermatPH. Eveler, of 811 W. Main St.,
Jefferson, Mo., a -well known contractor and builder, was one of the victims, and
ne has since been troubled ■with the after-effects of the disease. A year ago his
health began to fail and he was obliged to discontinue work. That he lives to-day
is almost a miracle. He says:
"I l p ^ a ..t ;rou kl e jl ylth shortness of breath, palpitation of the heart and a
general debility. My back also pained me severely.
‘‘I tried one doctor after another and numerous remedies suggested by my
t£ len r®.> ? ut without apparent benefit, and began to give up hope. Then I saw
Dr. williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People extolled in a St. Louis paper and after
investigation, decided to give them a trial.
, ‘‘After using ^ the first box I felt wonderfully relieved and was satisfied that
tne puls were putting me on the rOad to recovery. I bought two more boxes and
continued taking them.
After taking four boxes of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People I am
restored to good health. I feel like a new man, and having the will and energy
of my former days returned, I am capable of transacting my business within-
creased ambition.
" W mi , ams ’ P'nk Pills for Pale People are a wonderful medicine and any
one suffering from the after-effects of the grip will find that these pills are the
specific.” ^ _ “Herman H. Eveeer.”
Mr. Eveler will gladly answer any inquiry regarding this if stamp is enclosed.

Rise of Foam In Churns.
Question.—Why is. it that sometimes
in churning foam will rise in the churn
and it will take hours fer the butter to
“come?”
Answer.—One of the best authorities
on the subject gives the following rea
sons for the condition you mention:
1. The temperature is not right—us
ually the cream is too cold in the churn.
2. The cream may have been kept too
long.
3. The cream of a “farrow” or “strip
per” cow may be causing the trouble.
4. The cream may be too thin—get
rid of some of the skim-milk.
5. The cream may be too thick—add a
little skim-milk or water.
6. The churn is too full.
To make good butter the cream when
churned should have a temperature of
between 55 and 75 degrees. If the tem
perature is below 55 degrees the butter
will not “come” readily, and if above 75
degrees the product is apt to be a white,
spongy butter. Overchurning is also,
to be guarded against, and care must be
taken to stop the churning at the point
where the butter separates itself from
the milk. Otherwise the granular ap
pearance and character of the butter
will be lost, and you wiRhave a smooth,
fatty product.—State Agricultural De
partment.
Coincidence.
“Somehow I’m awfully stupid to
night,” remarked young' Bornm lan
guidly the other evening.
“Indeed yon are,” retorted Miss Cut
ting, somewhat impulsively.
“Do yon really mean that?” asked
the young man in surprise.
“I merely indorsed yonr remarks.
Didn’t you just now assert that you
were stupid?” she queried.
“Yes,” he responded, '“but I only
said so without thinking. ”
“And up to the time yon spoke of it, ”
she replied, “I only thought so without
saying it.”—Peajson’s Weekly.
The Minister’s Mistake.
This story is told of a prominent
preacher: On a hot Sabbath as he was
preaching he took from his pocket what
he thought was his handkerchief, shook
it out and wiped his face, intently talk
ing all the time. To his surprise a broad
smile was on every face in his audience,
when he discovered that what he had
put in his pocket for a handkerchief
that morning was a pair of his little
child’s drawers, the legs of which were
quite visible as he wiped the perspira
tion from his face.—Homiletic Review.

cities are already overcrowded with peo- mnc h of wh ich is hard to detect with-
ple who cannot obtain regular work,
and additional numbers would only ag
gravate this already bad condition. Re
member how yonr fathers acted at the
close of the war, 34 years ago. Return
ing as they did to ruined homes, with
out money, without credit, many of
them broken down in health, they went
to work with the eame resolution and
bravery that had enabled them for four
years to resist the overwhelming armies
of the north, and out of that ruin they
built up a great state, and in a measure
restored their shattered fortunes. You
are sons of those heroic sires, and should
not be daunted by difficulties no greater
than they met and overcame. Industry
and economy are bound to win now, as
they did after the war.
While the results of last year’s opera
tions have in very many cases been dis
couraging, let ns not lose heart, but
with redoubled energy and with re
newed hope let ns strive for better re
sults this year. “Where there is a will,
there is a way,” and if we earnestly de
sire to be rid of the despotic rule of
“king cotton,” we can certainly find a
way to do so. I think I can see tho
dawn of better times coming for onr
farmers. With the reports of largely
increased seeding of small grain; of
many flour mills being erected in the
state (the largest in the south, now
about completed in Atlanta, which will
consume 5,000 bushels of wheat and
3,000 bushels of corn daily, and will fur
nish a cash market at railroad stations
for grain); of packing houses being es
tablished, that stand ready to purchase
every fat hog and beef that we will
raise, I am sure there is reason for tho
“faith within me” that Georgia has
reached tho last milestone on the
downward road to poverty, and will from
this point, steadily, and I hope rapidly,
advance towards the goal of prosperity
and independence. Do not be deceived
if as planting time approaches the men
who control the prices of cotton, permit
it to advance a little in value. They
want a large crop planted and are even
now..getting anxious, because of the
prospective decrease in acreage. You
have been caught by this attractive bait
in former years, and experience should
teach you to recognize and avoid it now.
Don’t forget the caution that I gave in the
January letter, viz: to repel the thought,
that because your neighbors will plant
less cotton yon will plant more in hope
of better prices. This is most danger
ous ground to take, for if generally
adopted, the logical result would be an
enormous crop, with stiff lower prices.
I know that advice on this line is sel
dom appreciated, but being a farmer of
long experience, I deem it my duty to
put the matter plainly before my brother
•farmers, hoping that good may result
from it. If my advice given last month
has been followed, the fences on our
farms have been repaired; new terraces
run off and old ones mended where nec
essary; many compost heaps have been
made; as the weather permitted, much
grain has been Feeded, and the prepara
tion of the ground for other crops is
fairly under way.
While the season for wheat sowing is
past, there is still time to plant oats,
this, being probably the best spring
month for that purpose. As the period
for rooting and growth of the crop be
comes shorter as the the season advances,
it necessarily follows that the land
seeded to oats during this month shonld
be richer, and if possible better pre
pared, than land seeded in the fall. The
root growth of the spring sown oats wili
not be as great as when-seeded in the
fall, therefore if a good crop is expeoted
from the spring planting, there must
more available plant food in the soil
You also need a variety of oats that will
mature quickly, and I known of none
better than the “Burt.” While they
do not yield as heavily as some other
varieties, thc?y mature very early and
seldom rust. Do not fail to put in a
good aoreage in oats while there is still
time to do so, for yon are likely to need
them badly next summer, and you could
have no better feed for your work stock.
In the southern part of the state corn
planting should commence before this
month expires, particularly on the red
lands of that section. These lands warm
up earlier than do the gray lands, and
can therefore be planted from ten days
to two weeks sooner. Don’t make the
mistake (so common among negro tern
ants) of planting com very close. I
prefer 7 feet rows and 3 feet in the drill*
with a row of ground peas or field peas
in the middles. By this plan as much
or more com will be made thou by closer
planting, and a crop of peas also. What-

out careful examination. Many perfect
looking ears have a rotten cob, with
the germ of the grain discolored and
dead. Yon cannot be too careful
this matter of selecting seed, as the en
tire success of your crop depends on it.
In the middle and upper portions of tho
state the same general directions for
planting will apply, save that the time
for planting gets later and later as we
go up the country, until there is fully a
month’s difference between the two ex
tremes of the state. When the moun
tain section is reached ground peas
would hardly be a profitable crop, and
field peas shonld be substituted for
them. The advice as to 7 feet rows for
com, of course, applies only to uplands.
The river and creek bottoms will bear
much closer planting.
Sugar cane shonld also be planted the
last of this month. The ground should
be deeply broken and well fertilized for
this crop. If the stalks are long cut
them in several pieces, and in planting
let the pieces or the whole stalks lap,
for one-third of their length. By .this
plan yon will get a better stand.
Commercial fertilizers are best for
sugar cane, as stable manure heavily
applied gives the syrup a dark eolor and
an unpleasant taste. There is very lit
tle profit in making syrup to sell
at 15 to 18 cents a gallon, as at
present; but if greator care were used,
resulting in a fine article of syrup, and
the same should be put up in half-gal
lon and gallon cans, attractively la
beled, I believe cane-growing could be
made very profitable. The maple syrup
from the north is put up in this way,
and readily sells for high prices, though
not a whit better than our best cane
syrup. There is great room for im
provement here. Irish potatoes should
be planted this month, also, all hardy
garden vegetables. Should a cold snap
threaten after they are up, cover lightly
with straw-or leaves, which will afford
ample protection. Don’t fail to make
every effort to have a good garden, for
no other ground on tho farm will pay
one-fourth as much on the investment as
will a fertile and well-cultivated garden.
It is to be hoped that you have given
ample care to your stock of various
kinds during the severe weather through
which we have passed. A good thick
bed of straw or leaves, under shelter, is
as much appreciated by your stock dur
ing cold and wet winter nights, as your
own comfortable bed is by yourself. “A
merciful man is merciful to his beast,”
and will provide for its wants,.but many
of our improvidsnt farmers will permit
their cows to staud all night in a wet lot,
drawn up in fence corners, shivering
with cold and hunger,’ while their hogs
run around squealing for warmth and
shelter, which they perhaps finally find
in the dust under some old outhouse.
This picture is not overdrawnjjut can
be seen in every neighborhood in the
state. There is no profit in such treat
ment of stock, and if yon can take no
better care of your animals, you had
best sell them to some neighbor who
will care for them. This mistreatment
of stock is only one of the many curses
brought upon ns by the all-cotton craze,
and will quickly disappear, when our
people learn that there are many farm
products that pay better than cotton.
The excessive amount of wet weather
that we have had during the past three
months has very mnch delayed the
work of the plow, but we mu3t not on
that account become impatient and
plow our lands when too wet. This
would be almost certainly fatal to the
crop that follows and might diminish
the productiveness of such land for sev
eral years. The energetic farmer will
always find plenty of work on his place
requiring his attention, whether it be
wet or dry, and nothing is gained by
plowing the land when not in proper
condition.
This applies not only to the top soil,
but the subsoil as well. The passage of
the plow through either, when wet,
will simply puddle the clay and render
it, when dry, impervious to the roots of
tho growing crop. O. B. Stevens,
Commissioner of Agriculture.

A VICTIM OF TELEPATHY.
Ilis Absnrd Delusions Finally Ban
ished by the Hypnotic Route.
There came to me late one night a
stranger in wildest despair resolved to
commit suicide that night if I could
not help him, says Professor Munster
berg in The Atlantic. He had been a
physician, hut had given up his prac
tice because his brother, on the other
side of the ocean, hated him and had
him under his telepathic influence,
troubling him from over the sea with
voices which mocked him and with im
pulses to foolish actions. He had not
slept nor had he eaten anything for
several days, and the only chance for
life he saw was that a new hypnotic in
fluence might overpower the mystical
hypnotic forces.
I soon found the source of his trou
ble. Iff treating himself for a wound he
had misused cocaine in an absnrd way,
and the hallucinations of voices were
the chief symptom of liis cocainism.
These products of his poisoned brain
had sometimes reference to his brother
in Europe, and thus the telepathic sys
tem grew in him and permeated his
whole life. I hypnotized him, and sug
gested to him with success to have
sleep and food and a smaller dose of
cocaine. Then I hypnotized him daily
for six weeks. After ten days he gave
up cocaine entirely, after three weeks
the voices disappeared, and after that
the other symptoms faded away. It was
not, however, until the end that the
telepathic system was exploded.
Even when the voices had gone he
for awhile felt his movements controlled
over the ocean, and after six weeks,
when I had him quite well again, he
laughed over his telepathic absurdities,
but assured me that if these sensations
came again he should be unable, even in
full health, to resist the mystical inter
pretation, so vividly had he felt the
distant influences.
