On the Neck and Great Weakness
Caused by Impure Blood-Was
Constantly Growing Worse.
"When my son was years old he began
to complain of soreness on both sides of
his neck, and soon Jumps began to gather
on one side and grew to half the size of an
egg. We then became more uneasy and
began to doctor him for scrofula. He
gradually grew worse, however until at
the age of II years we had lost all hope of
his recovery. He became so weak he
could sit up but a few minutes at a time.
My wife saw Hoods Sarsaparilla recon-
mended as great blood purifier and we
sent and got a bottle. We began giving
our boy the medicine according to direc-
tions and it was not long before we saw he
was improving. He continued taking it
until he was in very good health. He is
now Ii years ola and is we'll We recon-
mend Hoods Sarsaparllla for all troubles
caused by impure blood" s. NJ. SILVER,

An Indication that the sugar Rect Culture
VIII be Quite Extensive Agricultural
department Importuned for seed.
WASHINGTON. April 21.-The agri-
cultural department is being impor-
tuned from all parts of the country for
sugar beet seed. In view of the un-
satisfactory prices received for staple
crops during the past few years,
and the prospective increase In the
duty on sugar, farmers in all sec
tons of the Union evidently
intend to experiment with beet-sugar
culture. Heretofore beet-sugar grow
ing has been confined almost exclusive
ly to Nebraska, Kansas and California.
The agricultural department has sent
beet seeds this spring toabout 30 states
and territories. The demand comes
from Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan,
the DalNotas, Texas New Mexico, Iowa,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Tennessee, Ken
lucky and Virginia. There have also
been requests from Pennsylvania and
New York. A Nebraska sugar rein
ing company donated five tons of beet
seed TO the department and the depart
ment purchased two tons additional.
The supply is about exhausted but the
demand continues.

MANUFACTURERS AROUSED
by the Proposition for the Government to
Establish an Armor Plant.

Establish an Armor Plant
WASHINGTON, April 21.-The PROPOSE
ton made tocongress by Secretary Her
bert that congress provide for the
establishment of a government plant
for the manufacture of armor in the
event that the armor makers refused to
accept the maximum price of 500 per
ton, has aroused opposition on the
part of the manufacturers of war mate
rial throughout the country. They
evidently apprehend that Secre-
tary Long, having referred the
unsatisfactory bids received re-
Gently from the armor makers
to congress, may follow up the
subject with renewal of Secretary
Herbert's proposition and have effected
an organization in the direction of a re-
Mobilization of an old association
formed for like purpose some years
ago, with Mr.. |. l.. G. Rice as director
of the new organization.
Their argument is that the work can
be better done by private enterprise.
and that nearly all important inven-
tions in modern warfare are due to pri-
vate inventors working outside gov
eminent shops.

States government will not support the
demand for indemnity on the British
government of Edward Ivory, who was
for some time in prison in London un-
der suspicion of being concerned in a
dynamite plot, and recently filed with
the state department a demand for an
indemnity of 100000. The proceed
ings to which Ivory was subjected, it
respect and similar in every point to
those that would be imposed in the
case of any foreigner or native in the
United States, so there is no substantial
reason for United States interference.

end OF certain time seems to obtain
his bicycle free of cost. All of the lead
ing American wheels are represented
by agencies in Australia, and there is
complaint that the trade is overdone.

KING GEORGE of GREECE.

The king denied that Greece COM
menced hostilities against Turkey, and
argued that Turkey was not compelled
TO go to war because of the incursion of
9 few insurgents whom nobody could
have restrained.
Continuing, King George said: 1.-THE
truth is we were attacked because
Turkey was ordered to attack us.
There never would have been war
but for certain intrigues which will
appear later. All the powers are
more or less against US. If they wanted
war they have got it. Such is the re-
suit of the European concert. Europe
must understand that after forcing us
to war there can be no question of
limiting it. Our feet is destined
to take an important part, as
will soon be learned. Greece
understands that she must either be
victorious or disappear. The war may
be prolonged and bloody, but it is
now too late to stop. A great crime
has been committed against right and
humanity in the Cretan question, and
the chastisement has now commenced. :"
