Has been the absorbing topic lately. A
facetious correspondent says: sIf the
agents, instead of dosing the poor Indians
with cough cures to the disgust OF their
palates and destruction of their stomachs,
had sold them Shiloh's Consumption Cure.
the only reliable cough cure, palatable to
the taste and instantaneous in effect, they
would all be on the reservation yet" This
is doubtful, but certainly nothing creates
more alarm than a cough--nothing cures as
quickly as Shiloh's Cure. It 1Gds the first
guaranteed cure for coughs, asthma and
consumption. 1t Is the first in the estima-
tion of all who have used it In throat Or
lung trouble. Remember Sliloll's Cure.

WINGED that the stringency in August

widespread financial ruin. Like COM
mercial conditions will frequently occur,
but it is not at all probable that they

quences averted by like action of the

power should be lodged with the secre-
tary Of the treasury.
/ am thoroughly convinced that a
better method can be devised, which
will. In large degree, place the power

pportunitY for securing such q currency
may be found In our bonded debt, which
should, In my judgment, be In part
exchanged for incontrovertable bonds

always interchangeable for money at
the will OF the holder. The quality OF
circulation is even more important than
Ghe quantity. Numerous devices for en-
larging credit may. and often do, avert

redundancy may sometimes modify its
own evils before their results become
universal, but for the baleful effects OF

SHoors growing around the trunks Of

ment. They should never be allowed
to start If kept back for year they
will cease to appear. Grass around the
trunks viii be more serviceable TO the
tree if the sod IS cut and inverted.
MANY trees would bear fruit if they
had about one-half Of the limbs and
branches cut out, so as TO allow the
sun to act on the leaves and assist in
preventing mildew. Too much top and
too many branches draw from the soil
the nourishment that should be used
for fewer branches
Now THAT the time is coming when
there is liability that the pastures will
be cropped too close, look out for
them 1t is better to do some feeding
in the barn rather than that the roots
OF the grass in the pastures be SO near
ly killed that they will not recover till
very late in the spring.
