DANGERS OF The GRIP.

The greatest danger from La Gri ppe is
OF its resulting in pneumonia. If reas-
enable care is used, however, and Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy taken, all dan
ger will be avoided. Among the tens of
thousands who have used this remedy
for la grippe we have yet to learn of a
single case having resulted in pneumonia
which shows conclusively that this rem
edy is certain preventative OF that dan
gerous disease. 1t will cure la grippe in
less time than any ether treatment. 1t
is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by

A GREAT ENTERTAINMENT.
The Commercial Club Gives a Musicale and
Social Dance to North Yakima's
Two Hundred

The Commercial club when il enter
tains does not do things bv halves. The
bachelors Of that thriving organization
took the matter 10 hand Tor the weekly
Wednesday night entertainment yester-
day, and the talent fairly outdid them
selves.
There was an old fashioned minst rel
show for the olio and cake walk for the
second part, that has rarely been equaled
even by the Black Patti Troubadours.
George Vance WAS interlocutor and four
endmen kept him busy answering con.
nndrums On the right end the two
Fre1s, Chandler and Miller, kept the au-
dience smiling. On the left end Rig
and Cline were varyingly funny. The
coon songs including the latest my
Honolulu Lady" gave the broadcast ex-
pansion possible by imperial performers.
The ladies in the mixed mise en- scene,
added their vocal melody to the accom-
paniment OF Miss Bunnell at the piano.
The burnt cork artists, Messrs. Hunter
and Mathewson, in their great specialtes
OF club swinging and baton juggling can
not he cassed as amateurs, they are pro-
fessionss Another professional, II. Il.
Rigg. was revelation. His reading in
negro dialect OF The Parry" evoked long
and continued applause and Tor an en-
core he gave topical stump speech with
local coIoring that won tor him another
hearty oulburst of appreciation. The
various ballads were well sung and the
lady quartette, in coon song, was rap
turously applauded. The male qnartette
Rigg, Miller, Cline and Chandler, sang,
or rather attempted to sing, "With all
her faults love her STILL" the phenom-
tally noticeable.
The cake walk must be seen to be APP
preciated. This was the piece de resis.
lance, or rather the wooden cake was the
piece, and probably never did amateurs
acquit themselves with greater credit IN
this most difficult of teprschorean exer-
cises. The participants follow: II. B.
Rigg and Mrs. Fred Chandler Mr.. and
Mrs. Willis; Walter Gervas and Miss
Minnie Leach; Mr.. Hunter and Miss
Patton; Fred Mathewson and Miss Myra
Hewlett Fred Cline and Miss Hewitt
Fred Miller aud Miss Mcdonald.
Stage manager Vance announced Il:
the conclusion that the judges were un.
able to decide which couple should take
the cake, but concluded to divide It
among them all. The merry waltz then
occupied the rest of the evening, to the
time OF the Yakima orchestra Refresh
ments were provided and the only draw
back to the gala occasion was the failure
to get tlashight photograph of the
scene of beauty, gallantry and fashion Of
the city, the chemicals hashin, ia the
pan.

Intensive Farming.
Long Leaf, N. c.

AS soon as we learn in this country
)Rhat fewer acres better cultivated are
better than many acres carelessly cul-
hiyated. the greater will be the profits
of farming. The great extent and orig
innl dheapness of our farming lands
hhVe been a detrGment to us agrdcul-
t,u,aNly. Thousands got their farms at
81 .e5 an acre, and even less, added to
the original claim ais rapidly ais possl-
bile. and engaged in farming CALL out
doors" Almost necessarily such farm
ing is loosely done. When there are
hint few acres under cultivation, they
ml1sH be made to produce whalb we
need. and they can be with less expen-
dftl1re of time and effort. The Englis9h
farmer compels his few acres to yield
as much ais our many acres do, be-
cause his system is more perfect The
farms of the future will be smaller.

but Ito plant it earlier is better. Even
though you plant as Eate ais the mid
die of August ut will make you a fine
feed and forage crop. / would urge
at least six pecks of seed to the acre
to insure a good stand and best re-
Suits. I have had many writers ask
me las to best way of harvesting this
crop and threshing seed. There are
two ways. If crop lis to be rilreshed
~ steam or horse power, then cut
vines up with scythe or mower when
crop lis nearly ripe. After thoroughly
curing i'm SUN, rake into windroWs then
haul and thresh, but be sure to reduce
velocity OF machine, and remove part
OF the teeth from cylinders, thus pre-
venting breaking up of peas. The
other method is to pick pods from
vines 10y hand, in the field, then HhreSh
with the hand machine, two men easi-
ly 't1rning out five Ito eight bushels of
clean peas per hour.
Should YOU want to use your grow
,ing crop for pasture you can turn ON
any timre after a vigorous growth of
plant lis secured; but if crop lis to be
used for dry feed, or for silo, would
not cut vines UP until in bloom.
If any further information is want
ed, lif stamp is enclosed,I will cheer

zone may go even farther and say
that a good crop ought not to be ex-
pected i'm the same season with the
turning under of the manure
AS general thing results are
doubtless expected too soon. AS an IL
illustration, fertilize a piece of land
properly with acid phosphate and pot
ash i'm some convenient form, say kali
nit, thus producing rank growth. AIT
the proper time mow the pea vines ON
one-half of the land for hay and re-
move. At maturity turn under the
vines on the other half, AT the proper
time sow both parcels to wheat. The
portion from (which the Wines were
removed will produce THE larger yield.
Alfter harvest turn both parcels and
i'm the fall seed to wheat. This time
the portion where the vines were
turned will produce THE larger yield.

In your issue of July Goth I find an
article headed as above of which the
following is an extract:
"Unless humus is needed in the land
it pays much better to feed the hay.
,(pea vines Jas the manure produced is
of greater value as fertilizer than the
dead vines, besides the value Of the
hay to the stock"
I must take exception to the above.
If the pea vines be fed it is not possible
to return in the manure only about %
per cent. a ferti1izing properties. More
than this, # the vines be turned at ma
turity a much larger quantity OF car
bonic acid gas will be generated than
will from the application of the manure.
This gas is a powerful solvent and acts
ON certain rebell:ous elements in the
soil, reducing them to plant io' The
vines, however, to be of value, should
be turned soon after maturity or say
about the time of the first frost. 1t

three fourths of their value. We would

who have tested the matter.

A Quick and Valuable Forage Plant.
The TANNERS do not, as a rrle, half
appreciate the COW pea as a forage,
feed and fertilizing crop. There is
nothing they can possibly grow on the
farm, with so little labor, THAT begins
to equal it, and to give it any kind OF
a chance at all, you are almost certain
of an average crop. There is but one
other legume that sutpasses it, and
that is the Florida velvet bean. But
for speedy growth and early maturity
of seed, the cow pea stands at the
head. Lit is a wonderful nitrogen
gatherer, and is therefore exceedingly
valuable both as a green feed, dry for
age, and renOvator of the soil. An
average crop will yield in green forage
twelve to twenty Thousand pounds ITO
the acre, and OF dry peas, twenty, ito
thirty bushels. And to use rihe extra
early seed two crops may be grown on
the same ground in a single season.
To Use this mass of leaf and vine for
pasture, or ito cut and cure for dry feed
or to Use for SilO mlIst necessarily be
of great valle. Every living timing ON
the farm will eat the green or cured
feed on dry peas as greedily ais they
would corn, Oats or hay. Hogs do es-

when grass, corn and other forage
crops so often fail, the extra early
cow pea lis most valuable and indis-
pensible substitute, and will quickly
supply an urgent want. The Extra

Greensburg, Pa. April S.-The body Of

laid at rest with pomp and ceremony in
the cemetery at St. Vincent's Abbey yes
terday.
1t is said by persons familiar with the
attending the monks visit
to the tavern that In his jovial mood the
Benedictine drank too freely Of the bever-
age. When he spoke Of going home his
friends thought that some person should
accompany him, SO a young nam named
O'Hara volunteered to go with the brother.
Half an hour later the boy returned and
said that two men had stopped the buggy
when Just on the outskirts of West La
trobe. announced they were from st. Vim
cents and declared their intention Of TAX
ing charge OF Strauttman.
O'Hara says that he thought they were
monks from the monastery, and now has
no reason to change his mind. They ad-
dressed Strauttman in a familiar way:
I'VE were looking for you, Strauttman.
You can run home. my boy. We will take
care of the brother"
