LESS LAND AND LARGER YIELDS
NEEDED.

1t is not in additional acreage that
the progressive farmer must look for
his grains, bat in making less land
yield more substance. This means,
primarily, the bestowing of more la
Dor upon small areas; and to the
average farmer this seems synony-
nous with neglect of his larger acre
age of grain. To harmonic these
apparently conflicting methods is the
task of the intelligent farmer of to
day. The two principal methods By
which the value of the product OF q
limited portion of our acreage can DO
increased, are The growing oil
vegetable supplies for our home
markets throughout the season and
the growing of field crops of vegeta
bles for shipment to city markets in
the fall and winter. The first oil
these il particularly applicable to
those farmers who are located near
medium.sized towns--say OF from
three thousand to ten thousand pop
ulation. Regular market gardeners
usually locate near the larger cities
and these smaller towns are depeiI'
dent for their supply of spring and
summer vegetables upon the scan'
surplus of some farmers garden OF
upon shipments from the cities. The
second method noted can be adyaT'
tageously pursued by such as are
located near cities, as their entire
product can be disposed to a whole
sale merchant or by those remote
from cities but near railroads over
which their crops can be shipped ~

WHAT u gu..s DISEASE !EAf Is COMING
Upon uSi

UPON WI
Ap g thief at night 1t steals in upon
v unawares. The patients have pains
about the chest and sides. and sometimes
in the back. They feel dull and sleepy !;
the mouth has bad taste. especially in
the morning. A sort of sticky slime col
lects about the teeth. The appetite is
poor. There is a feeling like heavy
load on the stomach sometimes faint,
all gone sensation at the pit of the stom-
ach which food does not satisfy. The
eyes are sunken, the hands and feet be-
come cold and clammy. After a while
a cough sets in, at first dry, but after a
few months it is attended with green
ish-colored expectofation. The patient
feels tired all the while, and sleep does
not seem to afford any rest. After time
he becomes nervous. irritable and gloomy,
and has evil forebodings. There is gid
diness, sort of whirling sensation in the
head when rising up suddenly. The
bowels become costive the skin is dry
and hot at times: the blood becomes
thick and stagnant; the whites of the
eyes become tinged with yellow the
urine is scanty and high colored, depos-
iting sediment after standing. There
is frequently a splitting up of the food,
sometimes with sour taste and some
times with sweetish taste this is fire.
quently attended with palpita.ion of the
heart the vision becomes impaired, with
spots before the eyes there is feeling
of great prOstration and weakness. All
of these symptoms are in turn present.
1t is thought that nearly one-third of our
population has this disease in some of its
varied forms.
1t has been found that physician have
mistaken the cause of this disease. Some
others for kidney disease, etc., etc.. but
none of these kinds of treatment have
been attended with success for it is real
ly constipation and dyspepsia. 1t is also
found that Shaker Extract of Roots. or
Mother Seigels' Curative Syrup, when
properly prepared will remove this dis
ease in all its stages. Care should be
taken. however, to secure the genuine
article.
1T WILL SELL BETTER THAN COTTON.
Mr.. John C. Hemptinstall, of Chula-
firmee, CIeburn Co., Ala, writes: My
wife has been so much benefited by
Shaker Extract of Roots or Seigels'
Syrup that she says she would rather be
without part of her food than without
the medicine. 1t has done her more good
than the doctors and all other medicines
put together. I would ride twenty miles
to get it into the hands of any sufferer if
he can get it in no other way. I believe
it will soon sell in this State better than
cotton.

the Madison Avenue Presbyterian
Church, New York, is, perhaps, the
most popular preacher in that city.
His church is always packed. He
owes his popularity very greatly to
his pithy sayings, which flow from
his pen rs easily as from his tongue.
In an article IN the March F0ram,
on What the Public Schools should
Teach occur the following epigra-
matte sayings:
Money cannot make brains, but
brains can make money.

of keeping hell out of the children

1t was proper that the physicians
should meet and declare officially
the status of the city, as regards
the sickness which has prevailed in
this city the past three weeks. now,
happily, disappearing. Some of our
people had become really, needless
ly We are sure, alarmed. AS the
CITIZEN has suggested, tho cause Of
tha sickness was from imprudence,
or exposure Of the party afflicted.
The report of the physicians show
that some sections of our city are
not as clean, in q sanitary point, as
they may be. 1t is as much the
duty, AZ it is moro to the personal
interest, comfort and safety, OF those
residing in such. localities to have
the stricteSt rules enforced a. it il
that of the city authorities. If indi-
vidualS will not take such steps,
necessary alike for their own health
as well as that of others, they
should be required to do so, and
should be made to foot the bill"
If the authorities can do nothing
else let competent person be di.
rected to visit at once every lot, and
see that a thorough cleansing is
effected and lime thoroughly scat.

mauy have felt was unnecessary,
yet they felt it, and tho authorities,
