Did you ever hear "hOrse laugh?'
What horses and colts relish should
be good for them. No question but
that they are fond of carrots, beets
and potatoes after the grass is all
gone, and if you were not shrewd
enough to raise any, better buy them
of your neighbors. Such food will
bring vigorous appetite, glossy
coat and good condition. A substi-
tute of equal value will be found in
green corn fodder cut fine or shred
ded, or in good ensilage.
Foaling in the fall has some ad-
vantages where farmers raise colts
from hard worked mares. The mares
are idle much of the time in winter,
in common farm practice, and with
proper stalls and food there is no
reason why a young colt by the
dams side may not thrive curing
the winter and be ready to make the
best nse of the fresh pasture of the
spring. The mother stands the sum-
mer work better in this way, and
there is no bother with the colt when
work pushes.
There is absolute need of muscu-
lar exercise for all animals, and it
is especially necessary to the full
and normal development of the
growing youngster; it develops the
lung power and quickens the circu-
lation, while disuse means arrested
development or loss of power. II
America fails to produce as good
horses as do tie farmers OF France il
will be because our mares and stall.
lions are kept in idleness. 1t is nc
degradation to put the stallion OF
the bull to work.

MODEL ROUND HOUSE.
Missouri Pacific Works at Conway
Springs Largely Operated by


Conway Springs, April 29-The Mis-
souri, Pacific company now has the best
roundhouse in Sumner county at this
place. A large boiler and stationary
engine was recently put in here and
now all passenger coaches are cleaned
with compressed air. All engines are
fired up by the use of air instead of
wood.
About four inches of coal is thrown
upon the CRATES in an engine and then
about a half pound of greasy waste is
is ignited and thrown on top of the
coal. The air pressure is then applied
from above, which spreads the flames
and fires the coal An engine has been
fired up in this way here and sent out
within thirty minutes after being filed
with cold water, and in the old way it
usually takes about two hours to get an
engine ready to go out. The old bel
lows and hand blowers have been dis
carded for the place of compressed air.
The f1ues in the stationary boiler are
cleaned with air. The oil is transferred
from the drums in which it is shipped
into tanks by compressed air. New
machinery has been added and the old
machinery remOdeled.

INTERESTING EXPERIENCE
Of an Iowa Lady Who Was Cured of
Dyspepsia After Suffering for
TwentY-Five Years

Mrs. Sarah A. SkeeIs, an estimabIe
lady residing at Lynnville, Jasper Co.,
Iowa, was for twenty-five years a suf-
ferer from Dyspepsia, and her complete
restoration to health is so remarkable
that we present the facts in the case for
the benefit of our readers, many of
whom have doubtless suffered in the
same manner and will therefore be in
terested in learning how all stomach
troubles may be avoided and cured.
Mrs. SkeelS says: I used only one pack
age of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and
l received such great and unexpected
benefit that 1 wish to express my sin
cere gratitude. In fact it has been six
months since took the medicine and I
have not had one particle of distress or
difficulty since. And all this in the
face of the fact that the hest doctors
consulted told me my case was incur
able as I had suffered for twenty-five
years. I want half a dozen packages
to distribute among my friends here
who are very anxious to try this rem
edy. Truly. yours,
MRS. SARAH A. SKEELS
The reason why Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are so successful in curing in
digestion and stomach trouble and the
reason why it never disappoints those
who need it and use it is because moth
ing is claimed for it except what it will
actually perform. 1t is not a cure-all
and no such claims are made for it IT
Is prepared for the sole purpose of cur
ing Dyspepsia and the various forms of
indigestion.
There is scarcely a patent medicine
made but what is claimed to cure dvs-
pepsia as well as a hundred other trou-
bles- When as a matter of fact a rem
edy to cure dyspepsia must be prepared
especially for that and nothing else:
and among all the remedies, patent
nostrums, bitters, etc, so extensively
advertised you will find that Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets is the only one ad-
tised as cure for dyspepsia and moth
Ing else. The remedy is prepared by the
stuart Co., of Marshall, Mich, and for
sale by all druggists at so cents per
package, and If you suffer from any
FORM OF stomach arrangement or indi-
seston trial will not disappoint you

Price of Bread Not Raised but Weight
DiminiSheS.

New York, April 29.-AIl over New
York city loaves of bread went through
a gradual process of diminishing today.
BY tomorrow morning a loaf of bread
which weighed "a ounces formerly will
tip the scales at 20 ounces.
The bakers do not intend to raise the
price but merely decrease the weight
of a loaf of bread, thinking this will not
cause so much of an cutlery. The weight
will continue to diminish as long as
flour goes up in price.
In the last "a hours flour has been
boosted from $3.50 to $3.50. An em-
ploye of the firm of Rudolph Blaneke,
wholesale dealers at 81 Water street,
said today that the 81 limit would be
