When an infant my body broke
out all over with an eruption or rash,
which became more aggravated as I
grew older. Every noted physician
in our section was tried or consult
ed. When came of age visited
Hot Springs, Ark, and was treated
by the best medical men, but was
not benefited. When all things had
failed 1 determined to try S. S. s.,
and in four months was entirely
cured. The terrible Eczema was all
gone, not sign left; my general
health built up, and Ihave never had
any return of the disease.

To Prevent Horns.

At an expense of five cents and little time and very little pain to calves we can prevent the growth of useless and dangerous horns on fifteen to twenty calves. Procure five to ten cents worth of caustic potash, which comes in sticks about the size of lead pencil. Keep it dry. When the calves are from three days to two weeks old, or as soon as the little button of the embryo horn can be felt under the skin, take a pair of scis. sors and shear the hair off closely over the button. Moisten with water di- rectly over the little horn button, being careful not to get on SO much that the water will drip and spread. Then wrap dry paper about the caustic, leaving one end exposed about half an inch, and with the exposed end rub the bare spot over and around the horn, keeping it moist, until the skin begins to soften up and peel off and the top of the horr shows red, ready to bleed. If not sue. cessful and the horn is found growing few days after, treat again.

WHEN EDITORS MEET.
The National Association Meeting at St.
 Paul July IA.

The National Association Meeting at St.
 Paul July 14.
 The national editorial meeting in St. Paul this year will be the most impor- tant event of the kind ever held. Nearly every State and Territory in the Union will be represented, and the work for the convention as laid out is exhaustive and highly profitable to the fraternity.
 An elaborate program of entertain ments have been arranged in St. Paul during the session, and at it three ex- cursions will be made, viz: One to Du- luth and the big lakes, one to the Yel- lowstone Park, and the third to the Pacific coast by the way of the Northern Pacific railroad.
 Tuesday afternoon, the fourteenth, will be devoted to inspecting the city of St. Paul, Wednesday afternoon trip will will be made to Fort Smelling and Minnehaha Falls, and banquet will be rendered the association that evening. President E. w. Stephens presented the outline of program, on which he com mented in an able and practic Il manner. His idea was to make the approaching convention more than ever useful in re- suits to have more of short, pointed, practical discussion and less of essays or lengthy papers.
 The delegates from Arizona are l.. O.. Hughes, of Tucson, John w. Dorring- ton, of Yuma, Ed. S. Gill and w. L.. Vail, of Phoenix. The Arizona associa- tion will probably join with California in urging the next meeting to be held on the coast.

Thanking Their Benefactors.
.itor of THE REPUBLICAN.


 PHGNIx, May II, 1891.
 We, the prisoners, confined in the Maricopa County Jail, being about to separate, perhaps forever, and wishing to return thanks for the many acts of kindness shown to us by some of the ladies and gentlemen of your city, take this means of informing the ladies and gentlemen and the public in general that we appreciate the efforts of the said ladies and gentlemen in our behalf.
 Some months ago a few ladies and gentlemen came to the jail (unasked) and declared their intention of holding religious services in the jail. They have continued to hold services every Sunday up to the present time. During their visits in behalf of our spiritual welfare we have met and treated them with the respect and courtesy due them.
 To these ladies and gentlemen and Mrs. Taylor in particular, we offer our sincere and heartfelt thanks. While upon the subject of thanks we would also like to return thanks to the jail officials, Mir. John Montgomery and his efficient deputies. They have treated us with all the respect and courtesy con- sistent with their duties as jailors. We hope (for the sake of future prisoners) that "Honest John" and his present ( equities will grow old in the office which they now occupy. We, the prisoners, t,nder to them our sincere gratitude for the many acts of kindness and favors offered us during our confinement in the Maricopa County Jail.

Farm Values.

There is at present great depression in farm values throughout the East. The actual abandonment of 800 farms is is officially reported in New Hampshire. The people leave them rather than pay taxes on them, and it looks like a large portion of that state will be bought up for the uses of game preserves and sum. mer resorts. In Vermont it is but little better. Good farms are for sale at from 8 to 8 per acre-less than it would cost to build the buildings on them. The depreciation of farm values during the last ten seasons is 40 per cent. in Pennsylvania, in Ohio about the same, while on this coast land owners seem to think they cannot ask enough, and have hung on to war and post war prices until immigration has nearly ceased. There is food for thought in these facts.

 I been felt by the orange grower of southern Calfornia for fertilizer adapted to this fruit. we have been successful in finding just the food, and now offer to the orange grower our "Orange Tree Fertilizer" It is an article thoroughly adapted to this tree, Consisting of bone, potash, phosphoric acid, ammonia and other ingredients, and is a complete manure for growing trees, from time of setting out to full maturity. Gophers will not work where this fertilizer Is used, on account of their distaste for the phosphoric acid, which is very helpfui to the tree-either orange or lemon. In inc growing Of other citrus or deciduous fruits in California the use of snperphosphates according to Prof. Hilgard, will be found much better adapted to the purpose than either barnyard or stable manure, in that they contain the neces sary constituents of which the soil has been de. prived by its long continuance in the cultiya. ton of such crops. In setting out trees. one pound per tree should be used, Thoroughly mixed with the soil before irrigating. The quantity used on old trees according to the age ot the tree-tree 5 years otd, 5 pounds; 10 wears old 10 pounds. If the trees are 2O feet anayt or more, and the soil be very poor, greater quan. uty may be used to good advantage. The fer ulizer may be applied at any time before a rain or irrigating.

CIews on the Outlook.

NEW YORK. July Sin his weekly
financial review, Henry Clews, the
great stock expert says: 1T Is very
many years since we have witnessed
such disorganized condition of iinan-
cial relations between this country and
Europe as has recently developed.
Such is the distrust prevailing at the
foreign centers that numerous bills
heretofore considered good drawn here
on European houses have become in a
large measure, Unacceptable, and the
consequent scarcity OF negotiable ex-
change compels n continuation OF the
shipment OF gold long after the balance
of our accounts with the outside world
has ceased to rule against us. A condi-
ton OF things calculated to check
business and TO enforce liquidation in
foreign commerce could hardly be con-
ceived.
Even If there were no real reason
for this distrust toward bills OF ex-
change, this sort OF discrimination is
calculated to cripple importers and eX-
porters in ways that can hardly fail to
disturb confidence and produce embar-
easements, which is dangerous treat
ment under present conditions. 1t is
undoubtedly a gratifying evidence of
strength that we have been able, with
out any signs OF suffering. to so long
endure the withdrawal OF the European
banking balances which are USUALLY
allowed to rest here, and to pay them
off in cash without n vince; but when
our export bills become unsuitable be-
cause OF the distrust directed against
the foreign houses on whom they are
drawn, we encounter kind of gold
drain Of much more serious nature;
and yet nearly all the June shipments
amounting to nearly $50, 900, 600, have
been OF this forced character.

WASHINGTON. July 10.--The secre-
tary of the treasury has authorized the
acceptance OF the offer of the master
OF the CHILEAN steamer Itata 10 pay
$500 for violation of the laws in hav-
ing cleared from San Diego, Gala.
without the necessary papers. This
settlement has no bearing on the other
charges against the officers OF this ves-
sci, to-wit' kidnapping federal officer
and violating the neutrality law. The
attorney believes that action may soon
be brought against individual officers
Of the ltata and the Robert and Minnie
for violation OF this law. Although
the officers OF the Itata compromised
their oifense against the navigation
laws. they may still be amenable to
legal prosecution on the charge of kid
naping. and also violation OF the navi-
CATION law.

meeting has been held in Woodsdale.
the avowed object of which was to dis
pose of me. When it was called to
order the chairman stated that that
was its purpose. but before anything
was done one OF those present stated
that there was a person in the hall
who was not worthy Of being entrusted
with the secrets of Woodsdale and an
adjournment was taken. Another meet
ing was held July 4. The call for it
was published in the Springfield Re-
publican and was to the effect that the
meeting was for the purpose OF taking
steps to see that the officers OF the
court did their duty in Brennan's case.

THOSE looking after freight rates are
aware that the cost of transportation
is not very much lower than it was u
few years ago. Farm products of all
kinds are carried at comparatively re-
duced rates, and just now grain is
transported from the West to the At
lantic seaboard at prices before I'M
known. The tendency of the times is
plainly toward cheaper transportation,
and there is little reason to doubt that
farmers will have less to complain of
in the way of exorbitant charges in
freight in the next few years than they
have had heretofore.

CHICAGO. June Judge Blodgett
decided the Phoebe Cousins case this
morning by rendering IL sweeping de-
cision against the ex-secretary OF the
board OF lady managers of the world 5
fair. The court held in short that
Miss Cousins was out of office. out for
good and can't get back. The case was
decided on the exceptions made by
Miss Cousins to the answer filed TO her
bill for an injunction to restrain the
defendants from ousting her from Of
flee. The court held that the board
of'lady managers was created by the
national commissioners and received
its powers from that body. These pow
ers extended to the executive commit
tee of the board OF lady managers and
it had full power to act inasmuch us
congress had not provided for con-
tinuous session OF the board of lady
managers, which had to delegate its
powers TO the committee. This COM
mittee, the court held. was in fact the
board itself. The court thereupon de-
MED the injunction us prayed for.
