The Latest And Greatest Discovery.

DR.. J. de Prati's Hamburg Figs--a crys.
talized fruit cathartic. A discovery of the
greatest interest to the medical profession. A
boon to every household. A most delicious
laxitive or purgative prepared from fruits
and vegetables. So perfectly harmless that
they may be administered with entire safety
to an infant. So effcacious to adults that a.
single dose will prove their value, and so
elegant preparation that it needs only to be
presented TO the public to become neces-
sity in every household throughout the land.
For liver complaints, habitual constipation,
indigestion, dyspepsia and piles, they are
specific. To travellers by sea and land they
will be found invaluable; they are positively
unfailing in their action, and this is the only
medicine ever offered to the public
that is acceptable to the taste, and so
pleasant that children will eat the figs as
eagerly as candy. For sale by every Drug
gist throughout the world. Price as cents

miles above its mouth, running thence a
straight course to the river, and shorten
ino the round trip to Philadelphia or Will

of digging this canal was first started about

1900, stock company being then charter
ed with capital limited to 500, 600:
Work was not commenced until 1918, and
owing 10 lack of funds the canal was not
completed until 1870, the work being de-
layed for long intervals and the company
being once or twice re-organzed. The

most comers i'll pleasant weather prefer to

Locking over the agricultural methods
and doings of this section one is struck
with the many changes wrought in few
wears. Foi oimerly the round potato crop
was an important item in the yearly pro-
duce Of the farm. The potato bug has rev.
olutionized this branch to great extent,
probably two-thirds, the labor, time and
expense of fighting the insects rendering it
impossible to cultivate the acreage former
ly put in, and now many farmers, who for
merly raised large crops for market, raise
only enough for their own use with per-
haps n small surplus. Years ago no farm
was equipped without from fve to twenty
head of steers to fatten FOR the butcher
Now it is an exceptional case where a farm
err has money invested in this line, western
heef having driven our home TED cattle
LARGELY from tie market. In the method
of handling crops there are many changes,
machinery having largely supplemented
hand work. The corn crop used to be
husked standing in the row and the stalks
set nm afterward. Now most farmers cut
nm their corn and shock it up whio yet
partially green, thereby preserving the fod-
der in better condition and husking more
at their leisure The immense amount of
Grain raised in the west keeps the price OF
corn and wheat so low that the profit OF
raising them on the higher priced and more
extensively cultivated eastern farms is re-
duced to a minimum and farmers are
largely turning their attention TO
other crops for their main profit.
In this respect the canning factories help
largely and the dairy industry is receiving
more attention than in former years. The
prices of farm labor has also increased ont
Of all proportion, being about double the
price ior day and monthly labor now than
paid before the war when the necessaries
of life were no cheaper than at present
