There can be no equal to lactated food
for nursing mothers. 1T contains the
very elements of rich breast milk. The
converting of lactated food into baby's
natural food is easily accomplished
with little outlay of nerve force. "a
For many years the use of sugar of
milk in food for infants, with the hap
piest results. 1t is recommended be-
cause, as Prof. Kuss says, 1.-The princi-
pal element in woman's milk is the
milk sugar. And not only does it
give pleasant taste, but it has been
found to allay extreme irritability of
the stomach and check diarrhea, and
thus proves of inestimable value to the
large class of infants that are predis-
posed to irritability of the stomach and
bowels and in constant danger of
cholera infantum. The basis of lactated
food is sugar of milk. d
The one safety for pale, weak, sickly
babies is to keep up their strength with
out irritating their intestines. This
great problem of feeding delicate babies
in hot weather has been solved to the
complete satisfaction ofhosts of mothers
by lactated food. 1t has saved thou
sands of infant lives.
Mothers worry less about their chill
dren when they see them daily eating
we'll and with evident relish. Children

ALSTEAD.

The great event of the week was the
annual fair given by Cold River and
Warren Pond oranges at Alstead last
Thursday. 1t had been so long pleas
ant and dry, that we scarcely thought
of the possibility of a storm, although
The equinoctial was just due. Wednes-
day gave increasing signs of storm
and it rained considerably. With sad
forebodings everyone tried to be dis
ciple of cold Prob" and to CLEAN ray
of comfort from the forlorn hope that
it would be a ''fair' day i'm both mean
ings of the word. Thursday morning
came still cloudy and threatening, the
weather vane showing the wind to be
from the north and west, but the higher
clouds running from the east and
south. Everybody was undecided but
still waiting and watching. 1t is safe
to estimate that fully half of the people,
half of the stock and vegetables and
other exhibits never started from their
homes. Had the day been bright,
what vast crowd of people and what
a multitude of exhibits would have
been seen. In the Town hall there was
an exhibit of fruit, vegetables, canned
goods, flowers, fancy goods and various
lines of merchandise well worthy of

show of animals and stock was small.
The ball games scheduled for Fair
day came off as advertised and were
enjoyed by the many who witnessed
the playing of the teams. The morn
ing game with Acworth was interrupt
ed by frequent showers and good ball
playing was almost impossible. Con-
sdering their lack of team practice and
the fact that they had never all played
together before, the Acworths put up
very creditable game and for four
innings held Alstead down, but after
that Alstead got down to business and
the game was no longer in doubt J.
Boswell pitched fine game and by
his wonderful control of a wet ball
showed that he was more than an aver
pitcher. Chandler pitched the first
five innings for Alstead and showed up
well in his first attempt at pitching in
regular game. In the sixth when
Shepard came in to pitch for Alstead
they felt that victory was already won
and Acworth can testify that hits and
runs in the remaining four inning We're
few and far between. The score is as
follows:

little, not enough to nourish them,

every three hours daily beginning at
six in the morning and ending at six at
night. 1t was prescribed by Dr.. FL. D.

The STATE PRISON BOARD.
The President of the stevens County
Alliance Thinks There Is COlOred
Gentleman Under the Wood Pile.

Mr.. Editor-I have just read Mr.. Posses
letter in regard to prison Irvine. I was
struck with the very remarkable resem-
Stevens counties.
Now, we are going to use prison Irvine In
this county and quite an amount of it, too.
We have one of those agencies established
here that Mr. Poose speaks Of as being
out Of the question in Renville county.
Warden Wolfer was here June % and es-
tablished the agency at meeting of the
county Alliance held that day in Morris.
The agent appointed is a good hustler and
Is also the choice of the farmers them
selves, so determined by majority vote
Of the meeting, on account of reasonable
propositions that he made.
Now you ask, What are you fellows
kicking about anyway? Why, just this:
We were led to suppose that the prison
management could and would accept good
notes. in fact, such notes as our local
bankers would certify to. Any one reading
their advertisements would think the same.
They advertise 6ha cents In car loads 10000
pounds) on time, cents cash in small lots.
Previously they had advertised cents for
cash or on time asking that the paper be
certified to as good. bankable paper. Now
the inference would be that the car load
IOt cOulu De purchased III the same way
Now again, acting upon this belief, myself
and others have agitated the Irvine question
and have solicited orders for the same,
acting in good faith, only to find that our
small orders will not be considered as a car
load, even though the orders cover the
required amount, 10000 pounds, but that
We must find three Or four men that are
responsible for the whole amount Right
here Is where we find the colored gentle
man in the woOdpile. Those three or four
men are pretty hard to find but it was
very easy to group together small orders,
with such paper placed in settlement there
for as would be acceptable to the manage
ment. Had 1t been one large order, to
illustrate, joint note for 1000 pounds,
with six names thereon where one or more
own 100 Or 200 acres Of land free from
inoumbrance, would be good. Enough Of
them would make car load, but you can't
get two or three men to buy car load in
the same way. They can't use it, but must
sell it again to their neighbors.
Here is where we are forced to buy of an
agent and pay cents per pound.
If Mr. Wolfer had come to Morris early
in the spring and established an agency
here, so that we could buy Irvine for z
cents cash, cents on time Uhe present
prices), all would be WELL But instead the
farmers were led to believe they could
purchase direct from the prison board on
time, with approved paper. They feel some
what chagrined to find ''they can't do it,
you know
Finally, we are going to use prison Irvine.
We are going to keep our agent to sell it,
We are going to try to keep that Irvine
plant alive and moving, but We don't think
the farmers have had fair treatment,

A Letter From Hon. John A. Kexe

A Letter From Hon. John A, Keyes.
Mr.. Editor:
1t Is very evident that the leaders of
both the Republican and Democratic parties
are panic stricken over the attitude of
the common every day people Of the coun-
try being led by the Popuist movement
into the arena of currency discussion and
they are now engaged in compromising
pills and potions to administer as an anti
dote for the purpose Of keeping the old
party lines unbroken.
VIII they succeed? Possibly, but not if
their would be dupes can read history
Neither of the old parties will or can give
any relief to the people of the country
They will not because the dominant inf1i1-
ence in each always Is arrayed against re-
form and relief. When the time comes to
act they cannot because their PRINCIPLES
are not Of the reform kind. 1t would be
like attempting to cut grass with a buck
saw.
No, the people must trample these new
specific remedies under foot Be not de-
ceived. Truth is not wicked. Let every
man work and show his neighbor these
facts, for the harvest is white and the dav
of American manhood at hand.
