The American Farmer.
Americus Tlmes-Recoruer.
The American farmer is the
greatest man ip the world. A
“combine” with a capital of $1,-
000,000,000 is a great thing be
cause it is a combine; but $1,-
000,000,000 relative to the capital
of money, brain and brawn in
vested in the agricultural indus
try, in this country is not at all a
great thing. Figures simply stag
ger and fall down when they at
tempt to represent the real foun
dation wealth of America, which
is agricultural. We are all, when
we attempt to contemplate that
wealth, very much in the position
of the irishman who had to look
several times, in order to see the
tall building-—taking it little by
little. One section of the view is
the information, entirely accu
rate, that the farmers of Minne
sota and the Dakotas have receiv
ed $800,000,000 for their products
this year. Another,is that the
corn crop of the state of Kansas
this year will be 260,000,000
bushels. Still another, that one
million dollars at thelowesfc esti
mate, fell in one soaking rain in
the single Territory of Oklahoma
the other day—the rain having
checked the growth menace of a
fortnight’s dry spell. In a single
year the miloh cows of the United
States yield a product equal in
value to one-half of the oapital of
the steel trust—and there are
more cows at the beginning of the
new year than there were before.
Behind the agriculture is the ag
riculturist, and the American far
mer is gaining in intelligence, in
mastery of his soil, and in fitness
for political power quite as rapid
ly as his products are increasing
in magnitude. He may be merely
waiting to be organized in a vast
and irresistable force. Or, again,
he may be slowly and sadly rec
onciling himself to the knowledge
that he is a passive force only—
like his own fertle acres, which by
intelligent cultivation and exploi
tation, are made to yield rich
crops for those who know how to
get them.
A '9,700,000 bale cotton crop for
1902,which is the figuie at which
the yield for the year is put,
means lots of prosperty for the
planters. The corn and wheat
growers are not the only agricul
turists who willbe in clover this
year. Probably the yield will be
slightly below that of 1901, but in
the general tendency toward an
increase of the foreign demand
the chances are that it will bring
considerably more money than
last year,s output did. The coun
try is in a flourishing condition
in every respect and the best part
of the story is that the prosperity
is diffued througout the entire
United States, and in almost all
interests.—St. Louis Globe Dem
ocrat.
Long and careful inquiries by
German doctors indicate that can
cer is not probably hereditary, but
that it is perniciously contagious.
In certain districts the number of
sufferers in proportion to the pop
ulation is much larger every year
than in other areas. Dogs and
cats in many instances become
cancerous, but few horses and cat
tle are attacked. Men and women
are stricken on the average earlier
in life in this generation than in
those which proceeded it.

A Successful Farmer.
We publish the following arti
cle to let our readers see what can
be-accomplished upon an acre of
land which is properly attended.
The Montgomery Advertiser says:
One of the most remarkable in
stances of diversified farming, if
it can be called farming, is report
ed by Mr. H. Durham in “The
Land and Sunshine.”
The farmer- is Samuel Cheeks
and his farm consits of just one
acre*of land in the Sacramento
Valley, California. Of that acre
his buildings occupy nearly one-
Bixth of the space, but on the bal
ance is grown nearly every varie
ty of fruits, nuts, vegetables, etc.,
that will or can be grown in that
climate. Through irrigation,high
manuring, cThse intelligent culti
vation and infinite variety of pro
ducts is the secret of his success.
On this small acre, which the av
erage farmer would consider bare
ly large enough for a garden or
potato patch, Mr. Cheeks has sup
ported himself and wife for forty
years, and he informed Mr. Dun
ham that he not only realizes a
comfortable living, but puts aside
an average of four hundred dol
lars a year.
This would seem incredible, but
his neighbors substantiated his
statements, adding that he was
one of the men in the community
who always has money to loan,
and who is ever ready to make a
donation to a worthy object. Nat
urally one the ,secrets of Mr.
Cheeks’ success lies in what . may
be called the folly of those around
them. The Sacramento Valley is
noted as a wheat country and the
farmers there, like the farmers in
a great many other places, devote
all their attention practically to
one crop. Consequently Mr.
Cheeks is able to sell them
fruits, vegetables and other luxu
ries at remunerative prices and
always find a demand for all he
can raise. If all of them were to
adopt his plan there would be ,no
home demand for his products,
and his acre would be less profit
able. That, however, does not
prevent his methods and his suc
cess from furnishing an object
lesson to others.
Take care of the stomach and
the health will take care of itself.
If the people only realized the
soundness of that statement the
majority might live to a good old
age like Moses, “the eye undim
med, the natural force unabated.”
It is in the stomach that the blood
is made. It is from the stomach
that nourishment is dispensed to
nerve and muscle. If the stom
ach is “weak” it can’t do its
whole work for each part of the
body. If it is diseased the dis
ease will taint the nourishment'
whioh is distributed,and so spread
disease throughout the body. It
was the realization of the impor
tance of the stomach as the very
center of health and the common
source of disease, which led Dr.
Pierce to prepare his “Golden
Medical Discovery.” “Diseases
which originate in the stomach
must be cured through the stom
ach.” The soundness of this the
ory is proven every day by cures
of diseased organs, heart, liver,
lungs, blood,—by the use of “Dis
covery” which is solely and singly
a medicine for the blood and or
gans of digestion and nutrition.
It is a temperance medicine con
taining no alcohol, whisky or oth
er intoxicant.
A recent Louisiana election was
decided by a majority of one vote.
Moreover the vote was unani
mous in favor of the Bale of li
quor in the parish in which the
election was held, The explana
tion lies in the fact that amend
ments to the constitution of the
state have made registration a
prerequise to the right to vote and
a single citizen of the parish had
availed himself of the privilige.
He was thus enabled to swing the
election as he pleased.
No Remedy Equals It.
Dr. O. Laux, of Loe Angeles, Cai., who
has been a druggist and chemist for for
ty-one years, says: “I can honestly say
that I have never made or sold a rheu
matic remedy that gives such a large
percentage of cures as URIOSOL.” It
also pleasantly builds up the general
system. Every sufferer should try it
and hut be deluded into trying other
things said to be “ju-t as good.” Drug
gists sell it at $1.00_ per bottle,' or six
bo.ttles for $5:00.

economic, and social problems. To the
columns of the Commoner Mr, Bryan
contributes his best effortsjand his views
of politioal events as they arise from
time to time can not fail to interest those
who study public questions.
The Commoner’s regular subeription
price is $1.00 per year. We have arrang
ed with Mr. Bryan whereby we can fur
nish his paper and Home Journal to
gether for one year for $1.90. The reg
ular subscription price of the two pa
pers when suberibed for separately is
$2.50.
