A Scrap of Paper Saves Her Life.

1t was just an ordinary scrap OF
wrapping paper, but it saved her life.
She was in the last stages of consump-
ton, told by physicians that she was
incurable and could live only a short
time; she weighed less than seventy
pounds. On a piece of wrapping paper
she read of DR.. Kings New Difcovery
and got sample bottle; it helped her,
she bought large bottle, it helped her
more, bought another and grew better
fast, continued its use and is now
strong, healthy, rosy, plump, weighing
40 pounds. For fuller particulars

The weather-crop bulletin sent out
by the signal service says of the
weather conditions for the past week:
PRECIPITATION.
There is an excess Of rainfall from
SedgWick to Linn, in Nemeha, Mar
SHAH, Washington and Clay, in the ex-
IRENE western counties from the south
line of the State to the north line, and
in the northern counties, extending east
10 Jewell and Mitchell. This excess is
most marked in ROwlins where over
six inches of rain fell during the week.
y deficiency exists in the southwest
central counties which eliminates in
Suaffnrd Pratt, Western Reno, Eastern
part of Edwards and Kiowa and again
in Southern part of Cowley, where nc
rain fell during the week. a seYere
hail storm passed from the CONTIGUOUS
portions Of Rocks and Ellis east by
north to and through the central and
northern parts of Riley.
TEMPERATURE AND SUNSHINE.
The temperature has generally been
below the normal, in the eastern divis.
ion ranging from to Z degrees below
liz the northwestern and eastern
counties of the eastern division tht
sunshine has ranged from normal to al
excess, while i'll the central and south
ern it is deficient. 1t is deficient in The
northwest, but excessive in Trego
Ellis. Rush, Barton, Pawnee, Stafford
and Pratt, while elsewhere it is abou
an average.

RESULTS.

The splendid rains of the past two
weeks in Western Kansas are illustrat-
ting the recuperative powers of that
virgin soil. In Stevens, Morton and
Grant the early planted corn is p feet
high, the wheat outlook is decidedly
better, the Oat crops greatly improved
"a moderate crop now certain whereas
June lst no crops eXpected), and corn
planting, which was discontinued on
account of the drouth, is now being
pushed vigorously. Reports from ad-
joining counties and up the western
tier show the same improvement. In
the northwest spring wheat is heading,
early cherries ripening and new pota-
toes ready for market. In the west
central counties, extending thence
southeast to and through the southern
tier eastward the weather has been ex-
cellent for all crops and for wheat har-
vest. In the other counties it has been
cool for corn. The hail storms, nights
of the 18th and Sth, greatly damaged all
crops within its limits, while the severe
wind accompanying it damaged crops
and wrecked buildings.

SOUTHERN FARMERS ADVANTAGES.

III every ldIlntf Ill 4M1SSlSSlppl
who grumbles over his chuck" and
surroundings, would take a trip
through the West, or Northwest, he
would return home a happy man.
There's no farming people who live
as well as a class, IN any part of
the North or West, as the Missis-
.sippi farmers, or none who make a
living as easily or handle as much
money. If our farmers worked as
many days ia the year as their
Western brethren are compelled to
work, and practiced half the econ
Omy that the Western farmers are
obliged to practice, ours would be
the wealthiest population on the
face of the earth.
1t is hard for orr people to real
ize that the bulk ofthe Western far
mers make their living off Of items
of production and labor that are
regarded as tritles down this Way,
that the hen coop, the stave pile,
the hoop poles, the willow basket,
the feathers, the wool, the driedap-
pies, etc, OF the Western farmer,
furnish the greater portion of his
market sales; and that his in,livid-
nal ventures III these lines while in
considerable, yiead him in the ag-
gregate all the money required for
tire purchase Of dry goods and gro
ceries, and frequently all Of the
money that he is permitted to
handle or control.
The farmer who "cannot make a
living in Mississippi" would starve
at farming iii any other country,
and the man who contemplates
moving to the West (if any such
there is) had better begin the prac-
tice right here at home of the little
economies Inc will have to practice
elsewhere, and be willsoon abandon
all idea of emigrating. Aberdeen

FARM NOTES.

Onions are one of the best vege-
tables you can feed to fowls, but if
fed too freely to laying hens they
will flavor the eggs.
The uses Of the cotton plant are
developing rapidly. Formerly the
fiber of the blossom was the only
part utilized. Then the seed began
to supply large proportion Of the
,'olive oil'' and ''lardn in the coun-
try, and now the hulls are found to
be cheaper and better than wood
for paper pulp.
The yellow.eye bean is the stand
ard for the manufacture OF the IA
nous Boston baked beans. 1t is
more grown in New England than
any other kind, and was injured by
the early frOsts in September last.
AS consequence this variety
maintains its prices, while that Of
other kinds has fallen as the new
supply came into market.
It,is an old truth that San acre
Of land has no limit to its product
i've capacity" The true farmer
prefers a small farm well titled.
The manure that is spread on two
acres will give better results if ap-
piled to one acre, while the'cost OF
tillage will be less. No farmer can
afford to buy more land until he
has brought up that already in his
possession to the highest degree Of
fertility.
Last year pasturcd my pigs on
COW peas and they did well; at first
they ate nothing butthe pods; when
they We're all eaten they began on

and finally they rooted up tho

rejected the course, woody fiber

According to promise Chairman
Mills has reported the Senate tariff
bin to the House. He accompani-
ed it with resolution declaring the
bill to be unconstitutional and di-
recting tlIe clerk Of the House to
return it to the Senate. This reso-
luton will be voted on aarly this
week, and its passage il expected,
which viii dispose of the Senate
tariff bill. There have been, in tire
last two days, three other Revenue
bills reported to the House. Mr..
McMillin, from the Waysand Means
committee has reported a billwhich
is the original Mills bill, with the
cotton, metal and chemical sclled-
ules left out. From the same com
mittee Mr.. Breckenridge hasrep0rt-
ed compromise measure, which
provides for free wool, free tim
plate, the repeal Of the tobacco,
tax, and the same wooden and
worsted schedules as the Mills
bill. Mr.. Randall, from the com
mittee ON appropriations has re
ported the C0wles internal revenue
bill, which repeals the entire to-
bacco tax and modifies other feat
ures of the internal revenue law.

A GOOD PLAN.

The newspapers of the State,
while they are sIlggGstingplans for
the protection of other classes,
ought, as - unit, adopt the cash
system Of subscription to protect
themselves. We frequently have
subscribers to discontinue their pa
pers, giving as their reason that
they are taking 50 many others,
the Constitution, COurief-Journal,
etc. For these they always pay in
advance then why can't they pay
for their county paper in advance
as well. 1t might seem little dis
trusting ON the part of an editor
not to trust his county man for the
small amount of one subscription,
but it should he remembered that
In doing this with all his patrons
