A Scrap Of Paper Saves Her Life.

1t was just an ordinary scrap of wrap
ping paper, but it saved her life. She was
in the last stages of consumption, told by
physicians that she was incurable and
could live only short time; she weighed
less than seventy pounds. On piece of
wrapping paper she read of DR.. Kings
New Discovery, 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 lao
pounds. For fuller particulars send stamp

- The Columbia correspondent of tie
Ne,os and Gurier, writing under date Of
December 21, says: "Tbs action of the
House on the horizontal razee bill,' by
(which all salaries are reduced 20 per
cent, except the per diem Of members Of the
General Assembly, has caused the bitter
est comment from those who will suffer
by the cut. Curses deep and loud are
heard on sll sides, and it is very evident
that the Reformers do not approve Of
: that kind of reform which begins at
home, especially as the members of the
House gagged over their own medicine
and refused to swallow It, The conser-
vatiye view of this question is undenia--
-sbly correct. Five dollars day is as
little as representative of the people
should receive for giving his time aud
j energies to the service of the people
Any less amount would prevent poor
men from serving the people in this
{ way but the mistake which has been
made by the House and will probably be
made by the Senate also, under the stim-
gulous of Executive recommendations
is the cutting of salaries Unfortunately
20 per cent, when in the majority Of
cases they were already too low to secure
service of the highest efficiency. And
after all what will the saving be-not
$4,000, an amount which if reduced to

cash that is wanted, but more confidence.
{ That is the situation in a nutshell.

Grape Culture Mads Profitable.

A. M. Howell, special agent of the
United States Department of Agriculture,
in the division of vegetable pathology,
has forwarded his report of experiments
made during the past grape season in
vineyards in this county. Mr.. Howell's
duty was to test the efficacy of 19 treat
ments prescribed by the chief of the di.
vision for the fungi of black rot and mil.
dew He is one of three special agents
in the United States and the government
places great weight on his statements as
to his experiments. he has been often
complimented by the scientific officers of
the government, and when the report is
published it will be found useful to grape
growers all over the country.
Nine of the thirteen treatments were
found successful in destroying the fungi,
and the disease known as "anthrocnose"
was also found to succumb to the same
treatment. That disease, however, was
not bad this year and gave little trouble
to grape growers. Mr.. Howell gathered
the rotten grapes from treated and un-
treated spots in his vineyard and the re
suits showed that in the treated plots the
loss by disease was fraction over one,
half of one per cent and in the untrested
plots it was fully 40 per cent. of the crop,
Mr.. Howell also finds that the cost OF
treatment for each vine was about three
fourths of cent. About half gallon
of any one mixture was used to each vine
and was applied four times, about pint
each time. The mixtures we're applied
to the vines at intervals of Is days from
the time they began to grow in the late
Spring until the fruit began to color. The
liquids we're applied by g spraying ma.
chine.
The active principle in all the mixtures
was copper in some form. One of the
most successful mixtures was 3 ounces of
carbonate of copper dissolved with one
quart of liquid ammonia, diluted with
water to % gallons. Another equally
successful mixture was 2 pounds of ace
tate of copper dissolved in SO gallons of
water.
MI. Howell thinks that the question of
the ability to raise an abundance of
choice grapes without fungus diseases is
settled, as the destruction of fungi can
now be easily accomplished atsmall cost.

quite evident to only casual observer
of its utterances that its neutrality is
"for revenue only" In its issue of the

its way To give Mr.. Burrows "A stab, and
insulted the intelligence of its readers
by saying, in reference to Yapie, that
his popularity is increasing among
the organized farmers" We notice
that a congressional convention of
"organized farmers" held right under
the nose of the Nc10S refused to respond
to the coddling of the Democrats, who
