Money to be Made.

1t is said that dull times are not
known by the agents of the great pub
fishing house of George Stinson & Co.,
of Portland, Maine. The reason of
this exceptional success is found in
the fact that they always give toe pub
lie that which is keenly appreciated,
and at prices that all can afford. At
present we understand, their agents
are doing wonderfully well on several
new lines. They need many more
agents in all parts of the country.
Those who need profitable work sho'd
apply at once. Women do as well as
men. Experience is not necessary

large success. Stinson & Co. guaran-

Reviewing the sugar making indus
try in Kansas, the Kansas City Jour
nan says of the Fl Scott mill: ''Te-
day the works at Fort Scott are shut
down for the season, after having sue
cessfully manufactured 234, 6O7
pounds of sugar, which official inspce-
ton shows contains 90 to SO per cent
of crystalized sugar. Upon this sug-
ar the state has paid its bounty of

en- by the legislature to encourage
this industry. This sugar was sold
on the market in Kansas City for 81
cents pound, yielding *13,559.9S,
there having been some addition to
the gross amount reported upon by
the inspector. Therefore the company
received for the output of sugar dur
ing the season just closed ST, 276.5O.
In addition to the above must be in
Guided 81, 900 gallons of syrup at 20
cents a gallon, making $4,000, and
seed worm in the market $1,000.
Then a total of S34,476.5O can be
footed up as the receipts of the Fort

The Queen Seriously III.

This does not refer to the Queen of
England, but to the queen of the house
hold at Lincoln, Nebr, where she rules
by common consent. I'm March last,
when six months old, our baby was tax
en- down with what the physicians called
bronchitis" ian ordinary cold) and was
very sick for two weeks. She seemed to
be filled deep in the chest with phlegm,
which we were unable to loosen. She
could not lie down at all, but had to be
held upright else it caused her to cough
severely. The physician did not give
her any relief, although the prescriptions
were changed every day and sometimes
twice day; this treatment was continu-
ed about ten days and We finally deter
mined to try bottle of Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy. We obtained bottle,
and after giving few doses she was re-
lieved, breathing easier, and throwing
off the phlegm and getting to sleep, get
ting well in jew days, and we believe
we owe her life to the use of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. Our Oldest girl
is subject to Group and has had several
severe attacks but the Cough Remedy
has brought her out all right with but
two good doses, and we would not go
over night without bottle in the house.
We have great faith in it, Signed, Will

Nor, is this all in the shape of re-
suits. The outcome has been so sat
isfactory that a chain of six n ew
mills has been formed, the necessary
stock subscribed, sites secured, and
work will be commenced early in the
spring. In addition to this there will
be 1900 acres of cane planted to
supply the six mills, 1000 acres being
set apart for each.
These new mills, with their paid up
stock are located rs follows: Topeka,
$3.50, 900; Pittshurg, Crawford coun-
ty, 100000; Newton, Harvey coun-
ty, 100000; Hutchinson, Reno coun-
ty, 100000; Garden City, 500, 900.
There are Others in contemplation,
but these are now assured facts, and
will be ready to provide for next
years crop of course. The working
profits of s13,229.57 at the Fort
Scott mill removed all obstacles to
raising the necessary money for the
six plants, as the nature of the exper-
iments showed that the profits for the
next season must be much greater.

To Irrigate a Desert.

The government proposes to re
 claim a portion of the unproductivt lands west of the one hundredth mer idian by system of dams and artif- cial lakes, from which large portion. of the area can be irrigated. Not only will lands be reclaimed, but the storage of this water will probably dc something to prevent the foods which pour down the affiueEts of the great rivers that thread our western plains Congress has been appealed to, and something may be done before long. The area included is l,300,0O0 square miles, and it is proposed by Major Powell to procure from congress S25O, 900 with whieh to begin the pre- liminary work of selecting the sites for dams, reservoirs and canals, ascer tain the amount of water susceptible of storage and the loss by evaporation, and estimating the value of lands-to bc reclaimed and the crops they would produce. Of the whole area of ,OOO,. GOO square miles, 1t is thought that at least one-eighth could be made pro- ductive and immensely valuable. The rainfall in this large region varies from five inches in the driest plains to thirty inches on the mountains, and even to seventy-tivs and one hundred. And it is thought that the average rainfall of the region to be reclaimed IS from seventeen to twenty inches a year. The canyons which it is pro- posed to dam are deep and narrow clefts in the rock, and can be easily used as artificial reservoirs. There is a good deal of hopefulness about this scheme, but it will take several years to bring it into actual realization and cost much money.-American Agri- culturalist

There IS not a fig orchard yet in full bearing in California. Yet figs are selling in the market to-day at twenty. five to seventy five cents per box, while dried figs, well packed in bulk, bring from four to twenty five cents per pound. If the fig ever had home, that home is in Southern Arizona It grows here luxuriantly by the road side, and when properly cultivated produces astoni,hing crops. The ter ritory in which the fig may be success fully grown is limited Arizona can grow this fruit to perfection. The at mosphere of Florida and Louisiana is too moist.

 on the wave; The watch-fres of Freedom are lighted and
 burning,
 To summon him back to the home of
 the brave. Untrammeled by power and unstained by
 ambition,
 He comes at the call of 6 patriot band; {; To lead great host on its God given mis- sion.
 And save from the spoiler our sancti6ed

 Brave hearts and bold spirits are wait
