Nut Culture.

tcondensed from Farmers Review STEM
oEraphic Report of Illinois State uof;i-
cultural Convention)
Mr.. E. A. Riehl read a paper on nut
culture. He said: Very little has
been done in this state in the culture
of nuts. and 1t is doubted by many II
nut culture can be made a profitable
industry. There are undoubtedly parts
OF this country that are better. adapted
to nut culture with n view to profit
than Is Our state, yet / am inclined
to The belief that We may grow certain
varieties of nuts on some OF our lands
at a good profit. However that may
be, there Is no doubt that We can and
should grow nuts for home consump-
tion: not merely that we may save a
small sum thereby, but that we may
have them; for. like fruit. II they are
not grown on the farm. the family Is
very apt to go without them.

Wisconsin, were elected clerk and SER
geant at arms, respectively. Joseph

and Rev. Henry c. Counden, of Michi-

The extraordinary thing the caucus
did do was to perfunctorily consent to
the readoption for temporary purposes
of the Reed rules. Col. Hepburn, who
was expected to make n fight on these

for granted that his promise to the

FOREIGN.

Latest reports from Ladysmith give
promise of important battles, but cable
communication is again interrupted by
the British authorities. Gen. Methuen
is believed TO be pushing northward,
while the Beers are moving down from
Kimberley, and the opposing forces are
certain to come together in deadly con-
flict. From Natal and Cape Colony
nothing is given out and it is held that
the situation is practically unchanged.
A Manila dispatch says that Col. Bell
scattered the entire rebel force under
Gen. Alejandrino and all their artillery
and ammunition were captured. This
defeat scatters the last remaining or
gained portion of Aguinaldo's army.
Col. Webb Hayes and 300 men of the
Thirty-first volunteer infantry arrived

rapidly ahead and indicate that the de-

midable force is that left in Cavite prov
ince under Gen. Tryas and that operat-
ing in Panay.
Gen. Methuen defeated the Boer force
OF 5000 at Modder river. The battle
was the bloodiest OF the century. The
British shelled the enemy out Of the
trenches and then charged and the re-
suit was terrible.

Deafness Cannot he Cured

only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have, rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
