P1LLsBuRY,s ALWAYS THE BEST.

Attacks on the Celebrated Brands of Flour
of the Pillsbury- washburn Company
Fall Flat.
The National Pure Food Exposition, now
being held at Battery D, is financial and
artistic success. There Is an interesting
rivalry between the exhibitors that furnishes
both profit and amusement to tic visitors.
The only thing to BIO regretted is that the
representative of brand Of -four appears
to think 1t necessary to make absurd and
unreliable statements about the well-known
Pillsbury brand of -four in order to call at
tention to the merits Of the product which
he represents. His statements, probably
unauthorized and made without the knowl-
edge Of his employers, are not only alb
surd, but are offensive to the thousands OF
visitors who know that Pillsbury's Best is
without rival in the flour markets of the
world. For twenty-four years it has MAIN
tanned its supremacy being the first patent
process flour to be placed upon this market
1t has established itself in the affections Of
nearly every housewife in the land. There
is not baker or brea,- maker that does not
know that Pilfsbury's Best the best.
Other flours are often used be- luse retail
ers find II more profitable, for the time be-
ing, to sell flours which cost them less and
consequentlygive them larger profit. The
Pillsbury Mills are the largest in the world
and the Pillsbury -four Is universally con-
coded to be the brand par excellence. Con-
sumers say that manufacturers of other
patent fours have never yet succeeded in
maintaining the high standard without va
ration for sories of years, which appears
to be q secret known only to the makers of
Pillsburys Best
There is market for iiours of all grades
and makes, aud it is to be regretted that the
representative Of any firm should have the
mistaken idea that sales can be made by
disappearing -four of international
reputation. This representative also at
tacks the celebrated brand of Washburns
Best, also made by the Pillsbury- Washburn
Flour Mills company, as an imitation of some
| of the brands of -four made by the Washburn-
Crosby company. This is very amusing,
and simply shows dense ignorance when
| the fact Is known that the brand Of Wash
| burns Best has been on the markets of this
country twenty years, while the present
brand Of Washburn-C rosby's superlative is
| only three years old

Views OF Washington State Farmer on
the Road Question.
read good many papers, almost
all of which agitate the subject of
road making In general, theoretical
sort of way. They advise the govern
ment to build them, advocate state
taxation, the sale of government
land, a whisky tax, and other innu-
merable ways; but always dodge the
only practicable solution of the diff
Guilty to my mind, |. e., the farmer
and those contiguous to the roads to
be benefited. just as long as we keep
looking for something or somebody,
nobody knows what or who, to pro-
vide us all with good roads to travel
on, we are pretty sure to walk in the
mud. When we are once thoroughly
disabused of that idea, and we realize
that good roads, If they come at all,
come the same way as good houses,
barns, fences and other improvements,
come by individual effort and expense,
we will soon be able to enjoy them.
Judge Bicycle says: Don't haul a lot
of small stones in the road to make
the traveller miserable" Other judges
say: Don't haul in loose dirt to
make a bed of mud the next time 1t
rains" If there is any other availa-
BILE commodity suitable for making
roads, we farmers would like to hear
of 1t, as those of us at any rate who
live in this quarter of the globe don't
feel like treading on air these times.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Do NOT strip the leaves from trees.
In selecting trees, choose good roots
rather than tops.
AFTER the leaves OF currants have
dropped, then cut the plants.
In the fall, after the leaves drop, is a
good time to prune the grape.
WHENEVER the tips of black rasp-
berries take on purplish white color
they are ready to take root.
In pruning trees of any kind it is
better to have one strong branch or
limb than two or three weak ones.
OUNCE trees die more from neglect
than from any other cause. They
need good care until well established.
THOROUGH cultivation of all young
trees at least for some time after
planting is essential to their vigorous
growth.
As SOON as all the garden crops are
harvested a thorough blowing should
be given, and, If needed, good dress
ing of manure.
PULL Bartlett pears just when the
stem leaves the tree without too much
exertion, wrap each one separately il
paper and pack in bran.
ONE of the best fertilizers to use
around fruit trees is made of two part!

IndiraafiOn In Calves.

When a young calf is gorged with
milk, indigestion follows and the
stomach is clogged with mass of com
pact curd. The consequence is, says
the Mark Lane Express, that the ami
NAL becomes dull, dribbles at the
mouth and grinds It's teeth. The
treatment should be to give teaspoon
full of carbonate of soda or saleratus in
half a pint of water, which will dis
solve the curd and aid its passage
through the intestines In six hours
after give one teaspoonful Of raw lin
seed or castor oil Offer no food I'M
til the bowels are cleaned out, and
then give one quart Of warm fresh
milk at meal every three hours.
When calf is drinking milk it should
be fed slowly and with intervals OF
rest, and cold milk should never be
given. as this chills the stomach and
provokes indigestion.

pie that there exists in Great Britain at
the present time veritable vineyard,
wherein are grown grapes from which
wine has been made regularly, in favor

ties of high quality were made at Castle
Coch, the vineyard in question, which
is situated near Cardiff, and is the
property of the marquis of Butte. Last
year, however, was the most success
full, and the vines produced great
crop, and no less than twelve thousand
bottles of wine, of the value of three
pounds per dozen, were successfully
made. This, the only vineyard In
Great Britain at the present time, is
