though the knee joint appeared to be all
right. So it was decided to operate up

was administered, the fracture exposed

with two surgical screws. The fracture

WHAT ALABAsTINE Is.

Alabastine IS the original and only dur
able wall coating on the market. 1t Is
entirely different from all kaisomine
nrenarations. Alabastine is made ready for
i,se in white or fourteen beautiful tints by
the addition OF cold water. II Is put up
in dry powdered form, In packages prop

Kaisomines are cheap and temporary
manufactured from whit

bastine Is not a kalsomine. 1t Is rock
base cement. which sets, and it hardens
with age. 1T can be re-coated and re-
decorated without having to wash and
scrape or its old coats. Alabastine is
utilized to a great extent in hospitals, as
it prevents the accumulation OF dirt and
the congregating OF disease germs, being
disinfectant in its nature.

! Sugar Beet Notes.

A great deal has been said in this
paper in reference to the cut worms and
various methods have been applied TO
destroy them but it seems that all the
experiments are useless and that time is
wasted. Out worms are not only found
in beet fields but in garden vegetables
also, and that they travel from one field
TO another and TO prevent them in the
beet fields is very hard 10 accomplish
Some have tried TO remove them with
paris green diluted in water and sprayed
on the fields daily but still these small
worms continue their work There are
two remedies TO remove them: First of
all the soil should be plowed in the fall
Immediately after the crops have been
removed and then plowed TO the depth
of nine inches cross.wise and then
thoroughly narrowed. This prevents
the worms from breeding as the frost in
the soil destroys the eggs and the hatch
ing is prevented. Second: The field
must be hoed and cultivated more fire.
quently as ii disturbs the cut worms and
it also strengthens the plants so that
when the worms make their appearance
the plants are 50 that they will not
touch them as the tender roots have be-
come large and strong. 1t seems strange
that when new industry is introduced
to farmers to experiment on that some
insect is to cause great hindrance and
trouble, but with care and study the
plague can be removed. Mich. Sugar

GraphophOneS.

To meet the constantly growing de-
mand for graphophone of the Grand
type at figure that will suit the popu-
lar purse, the Columbia Photograph
Company announces that the price of
the Columbia Grand Graphophone is re-
duced from So 10 $50, of Grand records
from s 30 to 81 90 each, and Of Grand
blanks from $l.OO to - cents each.
1t is confidently believed that this
substantial price reduction will have the
effect of placing graphophones of the
genuine Grand type in the hands of
thousands of persons who have hitherto
been restained from purchasing by rea-
son of the comparatively high prices
heretofore prevailing. AS further and
even greater means of stimulating the
sales of Grand machines and records,
and overcoming what undoubtedly has
been the principal deterrent to their al
most universal use, the price of Grand
records has been reduced TO Sl.U0 each,
instead of 81. 80 as heretofore.
Columbia Grand records have Justly
earned the reputation of being the finest
product of the record making art, and
the manufacturers pledge themselves
that the goods will continue to deserve
this reputation. The reduction III price
has been made possible by new manu-
featuring processes which result in i'm
proved records as we'll as in more eco
nomical manufacture.
Grand blank cylinders, formerly 81 90
each, are reduced TO 10 cents each.
1t is anticipated that the new prices
will create demand for these wonder
full machines that will greatly tax the
superb facilities of the manufacturers.
Their plant at Bridgeport, Conn, is the
largest and most modern and complete
talking machine factory in the world
aud their facilities for the quick and
economical production and distribution
of their goods are uuapproached.
The Columbia Photograph Co. has
brought about every substantial inn
provement III the talking machine art
The most recent achievement and one as
startling as the original invention itself
was the discovery of the principles
governing the construction of graphic.
phones of the Grand type. These ma
chimes give forth reproductions of sound
with the same volume and quality as the
original rendition. They speak and
sing with the volume of a giants voice ;
yet with the intensified vibrant power
there is no sacrifice of quality, but on
the contrary, richer fuller aud more
faithful reproduction Of the timbre of
the original sound is obtained.
Five hundred dollars was the price OF
the machines when first offered for sale,
and the original price of large records
was five dollars each. Facilities for the
manufacture of the goods on a large
scale and the bringing out of new mod
els, have made possible great reductions
in price. There is now no obstacle to the
universal adoption of the Grand Ora
phophone as the most fascinating home
entertainer of modern life.
