Comes a Startling Story. An Open
Letter that will Cause a Sensation.

Lincoln, Neb., Dec. "a, 1900 Especially.
AT No. 2115 o Street, this city, is the
B. & NJ. Wall Paper House. "B. & NJ"
are theinitial letters of the pr~oprietors,
Mr.. A. C. Bonsor, and Mr.. o. Z. Myers.
The senior partner, Mr.. Bonsor, is a
well known and highly respected citi-
ZEN. and no n has ever doubted his
truthfulness. 1t is, therefore, the pro-
nounced opinion in Lincoln and the
State generally, thatthe significant and
very strong statements made in Mr..
B~onsor's letter will go unchallenged.
After explaining his willingness that
the matter be given the fullest possible
publicity in the public interest, Mr..
Bonsor proceeds.
l nave suffered untold misery and
pain for over ten years. My kidneys
were diseased. / tried many so-called
remedies, but they did me no good. ]
saw an advertisement of Dodd's Kidney
Pills, and I bought some, and conn

been taking them three days before I
began to improve. For years / had
not had one good nights sleep, and be-
fore the first box of the Dodd's Kidney
Pills were all used, I could sleep all

Poison in cornstalks.

Cattle are dying all over South Da.
kota because of some hidden poison in
cornstalks, and it is a question whether
it is safe for human beings to eat corr
meal made from this seasons corn. 1t
is the general custom to turn cattle
into the fields after the corn has been
husked that they may eat the stalks,
which are ordinarily very nutritious.
Cattle fatten rapidly upon them. This
year, however, there is a poison in some
of the fields, and cattle turned into
them die in great agony within ten
hours after having eaten of any of the
stalks. Four carloads of hides from
cattle that have died from this poison
were shipped from Davis last week.
Men who have worked in the fields say
that after a few hours husking their
gloves become d~iscolored with a green
slime, which has a sickening odor.-

BELGIAN HARE TALK.
rhe Animal OF Present Day Is the
Result OF Years of Careful work
and study.

| Some people. even breeders of the
Belgian hare. believe that this variety
Of hare can be found in the wild state
In England and Belgium to-day. This
is far from being the case. We ever
doubt if the Belgian could be made to
do well running at large. Even when
ample range is given them they de-
pend upon you so largely for their
daily food, for water and for shelter
that we think they would fare badly
If they were made to shift for them
selves. They have been reared in con-
fnement for too long a time to go back
to the wild state in a hurry.
The Belgian hare, as its name inn
plies, originated in Belgium, where a
few men. set to work to produce a do
nestle animal bearing the shape and
general characteristics of the English
wild hare, as good or better as an ar
ticle of food. rich in color. fine in bone,
possessing great length of body and
limb, and, above all, bearing conine-
ment well. Years of careful work and
study have produced such an animal,
with additional merits.
1t is said that a good many breeds
of rabbits were used in its makeup.
For instance, at one time, to gain a
certain point, they used a black rabbit
in breeding. As a consequence Belgian
hares sometimes throw black young
sters, which are carefully kept and
bred in turn to other black hares to
produce what are known as "black Bel
gians.' In most Belgian hare shows
nowadays there is a class for black Bel
gians and premiums are offered for the
finest specimens.
From Belgium the Belgian hare was
introduced into England, where it soon
gained favor among fanciers and pet
stock breeders. Here they also gained
ground for utilitarian purposes, and
soon after there were divisions among
the breeders as to the requirements of
the standard, and to settle these diff
culties they decided to breed for two
separate and distinct purposes-viz.,
for meat only1producing the largest
specimens possible. These they called
Flemish giants. The other variety was
the slender. racy, handsome animal.
scarcely reaching than nins
pounds in weight, but an animal for the
fancy, which is our Belgian hare of to-
day.
Both are splendid meat producers,
the Flemish giant reaching the weight
of IL to 10 pounds at maturity, but
coarser grained and not as good in quail
ity as the Belgian hare.
Several other varieties have been
made from the Belgian hare, such as
the white Belgian and others; but for
some time to come the red Belgian will
be the %favorite of both fancier am
utility breeder. If it is ever super
seeded by any other it is our opinion
that it will be the black variety, on ac-
count of the color of its Educational
Rural.
