COOP NEws.-We want every mother to
know that Group can be prevented. True
Group never appears without a warning. The
first symptom is hoarsness, then the child
appears to hayo taken cold or a cold may
have accompanied the hoarsness from the
start. After that a peculiar rough cough is de,
veloped, which is followed by the Group. The
time to act is when the child first becomes
hoarse; a few doses of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy would prevent the attack. Even
after the rough cough has appeared, the dis
ease may be prevented by using this remedy
as directed. Tho only safe way is to keep Il
50 cent bottle of the Remedy in the house for
use whenever symptoms of the disease ap-
pear. For sale by j. Lassalles and all drug

The mel of worth to q town or community
are those who forget their own selfish ends
long enough, and who are liberal enough in
their ideas to push all projects calculated to
build up the town and enhance it's impor.
TANGO. The enterprise and push Of a commu,
nifty constitutes the foundation of its perma.
nent success. A town may as well prepare
for it's own funeral as TO become Indifferent to
the enterprise in its midst. Men who come
to town to make it their future home, who
cannot look far enough before them to see
that money placed judiciously in q public
enterprise will be increased an hundred fold
in the appreciation of their property, are to
be pitied. They are the class who are ready
to take all they can of ones building enter
prise, but are unwilling to do anything them
selves.-Kinmundy en- Express.

Good wagon roads are worth much more te

business men who would give dollars toward
the railroad to cents for better wagon roads
No people in the community should be more

Indifferent. In every case towns from which
radiate the best country roads are the most

iTers which contain the elements which
our coil needa The way 10 fnd what
our soil requires 10 by practical soil teal.
Three years ego ! vas invited by the
station TO make . coil iesi on my farm in
Woodstock. The land selected consisted
OF . dark loan With clsyey subsoil
naturally quite moist. The acre was
divided Into plots l6 rods long by one
rod vide. Ga The first plot was put
nitrate OF soda to the value oil sA.i .on The
second boneblsck 10 the value Of 1886
On the other plots . combination OF all
these 10 different com bipsiions. On pot
one on which was put nitrate Of soda the
gain over the nothing plot was ! bushels;
on plot two on which wss put bone black
the gain over the nothing plot was lG.6
bushels. On plot three on which was an
application Of potash the gain over the
nothing plot was only four-tsnths Of .
bushel. 10 other words when nitrate Of
soda was used We got 81 bushels Of corn
q, an outlay Of 81 20. Using bonsblac
We got l6 8 bushels OF corn At an outlay o.
81 l6; while with potash We got only four
tenths Of . bushel At 40 outlay OF s.. 80.
We carried this experiment through two
years on the same plot and boneblack
came out ahead in like proportions both
times.
Many Of my peishbors have used con
siderable quantities Of boneblsck this
present season on their corn in connection
with stable manure, and wherever it was
used on the hillside farms the result was
most astonishing, but il did not seem TO
meet the wants Of the sandy valley soil.
c L. Msy. who conducted an experiment
for the station the presen: year. lives in q
valley where the soil is sandy aud entirely
different from ours. although less than one
mile from our farm. He found that nitrate
OF soda was the element most needed 10
replenish his soil and be achieved the best
results from the complete THRILLER.
II will not do TO take The report OF these
tests as a guide for 40 individual farmer.
What We need is to make an experiment
with each element and personal invtstiga
ton.
Every live and progressive farmer should |
make his own farm Tn experiment station
and WHEN he has learned what elements
his soil peeds, let him not lose sight OF the
valuable ~ Of bis discovery. for there is
. gold mine in the secret il properly used.
II We will. as Joupg farmers, look ct
these questions with understanding, as We
would have 10 at questions which might
arise in any other calling. our boys will
work side by side With u.s. and We shall
hear no more OF their leaving the farm for
city drudgery, II we will labor one.l elf
as hard to achieve success as we would
have to IN any other profession, We will not
only succeed, but succeed boy ond our an.
