IL the only remedy that can be relied upon,
in all cases, to eradicate the faint Of hered-
itary disease and the special corruptions
OF the blood. 1t is the only Alternative
that il sufficiently powerful to thoroughly
cleanse the system of Scrofulous and
Mercurial impurities and the pollution
of Contagious Diseases. It also neu-
tralizes the poisons left by Diphtheria
and Scarlet Fever, and enables rapid
recuperntion from the enfeeblement and
debility caused by these diseases.

Henry Wallace, editor in-chief Of
the Iowa Homestead, the gentle
man who responded to the sentiment,
"'The Press of Iowa." at the reception
rendered the editorial excursionists in
this city, has written the best report Of
the trip Which, we have seen. 1t is
also the most valuable, rs it contains
valuable hints in regard to stock rails
ing, the farming Industry, and cognatc
Interests, which the writer is fully
competent to discuss. He also gives
some reliable information concerning
the cost OF raising wheat, barley and
oxts. In Washington Territory, Ilol.
ton Parker, u gentleman who has
about $500 acres in wheat and hurley,
pave him the cost of raising wheat
there. Mr.. Parker does everything
by contract, and therefore knows just
how much everything costs him. His

Interesting TESTS Made by The GOvera.

Er. Edward G. Love, the present
analytical chemist for the government,
has recently made some interesting
experin,cAts as to the comparative
value Of baking powders. DR.. Loves
tests were made TO determine what
brands are the most economical to
use, and as their capacity lies in their
leavcning power, tests were directed
solely to ascertain the available gas

These two fields are taken because
of fair averages. The yield Of the
Grst was 81 bushels per acre; of the
second 80 bushels. 1t brought 60
cents a bushel, or $40 per acre-and
this left a handsome profit. Mr..
Parker estimates the cost of raising
wheat to be, besides interest on land,
etc, and taxes, rs cents per bushel;
but even al 50 cents per bushel he
says that thrifty farmer can soon
acquire competency.
The Camas Prairie ranchers may
find the above to be of great value
to them. If Mr.. Parker can raise
wheat for rs cents per bushel in
Washington Territory, what is to him
der them from raising it at slight
advance in Idaho, where it sells for
80 cents to 81 per bushel?

Another chapter in the serial story
of incendiarIsm and confiagration has
been added to the seven or eight
which have already appeared in the
JOURNAL within the past four months.
At half past eleven o'clock on Satur-
day evening Mr.. COley krauth, miller
in the Prairie mills, saw a CLEAN OF
light upon the east side of the depot
warehouse. In an instant blaze
sprang up half the height of the build
ing, by the light of which he saw a
man running away from the lire in the
direction of the foot bridge. tie at
once cried Fire 7 at the top of his
voice, and in a few minutes = dozen
men were on hand and the hay, which
was burning briskly under the build
ing. was pulled out, and the applica-
ton of few buckets of water quench-
ed the flames and the building was
saved. Fire marshals Armstrong and
Tozer Immediately began an inyesti-
cation which led to the arrest OF Chas.
Hoffman upon the charge of arson.
Clias. Smith was retained by the city,
and Judge L. z. Wetherby, Of hudson,
was sent for by the prisoner. On
