maker as follows
Thomas Shoemaker has. we believe,
been fairly elected as sheriff of Mar

has been elected. He assumes RESPONSE

This Is true, yet for many
ages no one could account for
the mysterious and excruciating
pains that, seemingly without
sufficient cause, tortured the
hapless sufferer, and oftentimes
twisted his limbs out of all
semblance to humanity.
Science, however, has at
length solved this problem, and
has proclaimed that rheumatism,
In all its varied phases, is due to
uric acid in the blood.
Hence, when one is afflicted
with rheumatism he knows there
is too much acid in his blood.
How does this happen. 1t
must be the blood's purifiers,
the liver, and especially the
Kidneys, are out of order and do
not properly perform their
functions.
But how can they be restored
to their normal healthy state'
Hundreds of thousands of CRATE
full, and now healthy, people will
endorse the answer:
Use Warmers Safe Cure, which
will check an excess of acid,
dissolve the acid deposit, and
produce a normal and healthy
condition Of the kidneys and
liver, and then, the cause being
removed, the rheumatism will
quickly disappear.

A SHOULDER BAG FOR APPLES.

tom of the sack and a string through
the corner at the top. Then, tying the
string around above the apple, one has
a shoulder basket, as illustrated.
In order to have both hands free,
many apple pickers will cut a short
stick and by sharpening both ends
push each end through the sack, as
shown at the top of the dotted line in
Fig. 1. This is very good if it does
not fall out, but that ''measly' stick is
continually coming out by wearing
larger holes in the sack. To save all
such trouble take a piece of heavy,
smooth wire, bend it in the shape Of
the letter L, as shown by Fig. 2, and
slip the wire on the outside of the
sack, as at the dotted line. Turn the
edge of the sack back over the wire
and with a darning needle and good
cording string commence at one ring
end, hem the sack thoroughly clear
around to the other end of wire and
sew it well, especially at the ring ends.
You will then have a handy and con-
yenient sack spread.

ABOUT CASSAVA.
observations and Opinions of an Ex-
periencad Grower.

Observations and opinions OF IN nX.
perienced Grower.
Let no one imagine that high fertili-
cation is unnecessary for successful
yield of roots as we'll as large, fine
seed. Virgin soil, however, if already
rich, will make fine yield without
lots of fertilizer, and L find virgin soil
best for it. either with or without fer
tilizers. The longer it grows and even
to two years and upward the better the
yield and the richer the roots in starch,
in my opinion.
Some, however, are so alarmed at the
prospect of the destruction of the stub
BILE and roots that they are afraid to
leave the roots in the soil over the win
ter; but, having tested this through
two of the worst snaps we have ever
had in south Florida, 1 have no fear
of such loss to any extent in any of
our southern counties now producing
it. And. as seed is a large item in the
bill and planting only a little less, L
think that planting only once in every
two years is good economy. In add1-
ton to this, its manufacture, in point
of freedom from freezing after it is
dug and pleasant weather with ample
time to do it in, is certainly an item
on the bill worthy of note.
I think the seed stronger at years
old in case the cold lets it off On my
place here ON the east side of Lake
Clinch it escaped the cold and matured
the seed for eight consecutive years,
never succumbing in stalk or kernel
until the 1S94-5 freeze. and then the
roots and stubble both escaped, and 1
secured my seed the following fall
from the stubble plants.
Some writer said not long since that
the roots would rot after two years
and the stalks fail, but l think his soil
must have been at fault.
The foregoing is the experience of a
Florida grower given in an exchange.
and he concludes with the statement
that both cassava and cane ought to
be planted in October and early No
vember, as neither will come to ma
turity until upward of a year, the cane
of the first years plant not maturing
under 10 or IS months old.

Celery In Louisiana.

1t is claimed that with care and pa
thence most excellent celery can be
grown in Louisiana upon well ferti-
liked loamy soils by planting seed in
summer and transplanting young
plants early in October. Varieties that
have proved productive are Dwarf,
large ribbed; Large Kalamazoo, Per-
lection and Giant Pascal. Seed sown
in August and transplanted to rows in
October will be ready for market in
early February.

Flowing Under Velvet Beans.

1t is harder to plow under a crop Of
velvet beans than one of cowpeaS on
account of the tangled mass of vines.
1t is necessary to use a rolling cutter
unless the farmer has disk pillow. At
the Alabama experiment station it was
found that as good results were obtain
ed from blowing under the stubb1e as
from blowing under a full crop of
vines. As a general rule, it may be
considered a wasteful practice to turn
under the entire crop, because the
feeding value of any leguminous crop
is always greater than it's fertiliZing
value. y greater profit can be secured
in the form of marketable meat prod
ucts without materially lessening the
influence of the leguminous crop on the
succeeding one in rotation.

FEATURING Sorghum.

Some trouble is reported in Nebraska
In regard to pasturing sorghum. DR..
Peters of the experiment station of
that state reports a considerable num-
Der of deaths occurring from this cause
but sufficient investigation has not yet
been made to ascertain positively
whether the trouble is impaction, pois-
on or a germ disease. Investigation is
to be made, however, and in the mean
time the caution is published for the
guidance of cattlemen who use sor-
ghum. Commenting upon this matter,
the Iowa Homestead remarks that
the frequent evil effects that follow
the use of second growth sorghum
have often been mentioned, but it does
not understand that it is the second
growth crop that is now complained of.

The Local Paper.

Did you ever stop to think, read
er, what tireless and steady letter
writer good local paper is? Week
after week, reaches into years after
it goes on telling Of the marriages,
births, deaths, the business success
and failures, the accidents, crops,
improvements, meetings, revival
and other happenings of the town.
In fact events of all kinds. All is
gist that comes to the hopper of a
good local newspaper. Why, if you
were to attempt to write q letter
each week to your absent friends
and tell them a-tffird of the news
your local paper does, you would
give up in despair. The supposed
pleasure would become tiresome
bore, the letters grow shorter, fur
ther apart and finally cease. Why,
the difference? Because with the
newspaper man it is a business,
and to you an imagined duty Or
pleasure. People in live town
recognize this and take pleasure in
giving the editor the news. Some
people fee, that the editor thinks
he just wants his name to be seen
in the paper and that is the reason
he handed it in. The editor thinks
entirely different-he thinks that
you are a young man or woman
who wishes to see the paper thrive.
and he appreciates the kindness,
Hence, if you want your friends to
have the news of your town, let the
local paper be your steady letter
writer and you can then reserve
energies for other intimacies that
the newspapers have no right to
NEEDLE with.-MadisonviIlc, New
