Cost of Faftening Cattle.

A fat steer of 1000 pounds weight is
said to have in it 500 pounds Of water,
about twenty-five pounds of nitrogen,
eighteen pounds Of phosphoric acid and
two pounds Of potash. To buy this
nitrogen to return to the soil it would
cost about $3.50, and the phosphoric
acid would cost about 81. In selling
such an animal raised on the farm and
farm products about $3.50 worth of fer
tilizing material is taken. If bran, lin
seed meal or other grain is bought to
feed it, more than this would probably
be added to the farm, and it would be
growing richer, while if the hay and
grain it consumed had been sold off the
farm, it would have been robbed of
much more.-American Cultivator.

Wedge-shaped calks are fastened in
tapering holes formed in the bars, the
location of the holes being directly

accidentally be driven through into the

Lime ON Onions.

Lime is excellent on the onion bed,
as it assists in destroying worms. It
will also serve to make the manure
more available. The onion seems to
grow on the top Of the ground entirely,
but it sends out roots far and deep, and
is one of the heaviest feeders of the
soil known. The land can not be too
rich for onions.

PHYSICIANS DECEIVED.
Skeptical at First Regarding theValue
of the New Pile Cure.

Many physicians for a long time sup
posed that the remarkable relief afford
ed by the Pyramid Pile Cure was be-
cause they supposed it to contain CO.
caine, opium or similar drugs, but such
is not the case A recent careful ana
lysis of the remedy shows it to be absO-
lutely free from cocaine, opium or in
fact any poisonous, injurious drug what
ever It was found to contain only heal
ing anti-septics and soothing oils.
For this reason the Pyramid Pile Cure
is the only pile cure extensively used
and recommended by physicians be-
cause it is so safe, so prompt in the re-
lief afforded from a single application
and so far as known the only positive
cure for piles except a surgical opera
ton.
About one person in every four suffers
from some form of piles. The most COM
mon and annoying is itching piles, indi-
Gated by warmth, slight moisture and
intense uncomfortable itching in the af-
fected parts. This form of the disease
as well as protruding. blind and bleed
ing piles, readily yields to the curative
action of the Pyramid.
The usual treatment has been some
simple salve or ointment which some
times gave temporary relief. but moth
ing like a permanent cure could be ex-
pected from such superficial remedies.
Inc Iyldlulu Ille cure gives QUICKER
relief than any of these and the relief
and cure are permanent.
The pyramid is in suppository form
and the first application gives instant
relief form the pain, itching and sore
ness and the continued use for a short
time removes the tumors and the smaf:
parasites which cause the itching and
discomfort
The remedy is applied at night is very
| convenient and causes no detention
from daily occupation.
The Pyramid has become the best
known, safest and most extensively sold
of any pile cure before the public
All druggists sell full sized treat
ments at so cents and little book on
cause and cure of piles will be mailed
free TO any address by writing to Pyra-
mid Co.. Marshall, Mich
If suffering from any form of piles
ask your druggists for Pyramid Pile
| Cure and try it tonight.

ON WITH THE PAVING.
Petitions Received For Improvement
of Jefferson Street.

The pavement movement continues,
and the coming year promises to see

scented to the city council last even
ing, asking that Jefferson street be

nue.. The signers on the petition were
A. G. Hugo, John c. Heberer, Joseph S.
Fulton, Susannah J. Thomas, Evan

tition was referred to the streets and
walks committee.
The committee on streets and walks
also recommended favorably the petit
lions asking for the paving of Topeka
avenue from Fourteenth street south
to the city limits, and from Third street
north to Second street. The former is
to be 45 feet wide and the latter so feet

with which the people stay with him.

WISCONSIN REFUSES OFFER.
Declines to Play Football With Yale
But Tenders Thanks For Date.

Madison, Wis, Feb. 17-There will be
no football game between Wisconsin
and Yale this year This was decided
at a meeting of the board of directors
of the Athletic as2Sciation last evening.
A resolution of thanks was extended
Yale for the offer.
The reason for the declination was
that Wisconsin has already secured a
strong schedule of western games and
it was feared the eastern trip would
debilitate the men. Though the dates
of the schedule have not been fixed,
matches have been arranged with
Michigan, Chicago, Illinois. Northwest
ern, Minnesota and Beloit. James J.
Bowles was elected manager of the
baseball team. Twelve games are to
be played in Madison, five Of which will
be with Chicago, Michigan, Illinois, Be
lott, Notre Dame and Minnesota.

THE BRITISH DOCTORS
Will Most Positively Give No More
Free Services After February IL
Only Consultation Free-On-
ly Four Days More.

The readers of the Journal have on
more than one occasion voluntarily
thanked US for calling their attention to
matters of deep interest to them. 1t is
this feeling of satisfaction that prompts
US to mention the fact that the Brit
ish Medical Institute has established
permanent branch office in Topeka, at
Alp Topeka avenue, and that it offers
its services free for three months to
all invalids who call for treatment be-
fore February II.
The full Importance Of this nunificent
offer can scarcely be realized. Suffice it
to say that the British Medical Insti-
tute has on it's staff a large number of
the most expert British medical spe-
cialists in the United States, and that
DR.. s. Edward McCully, the chief con-
sulting surgeon, is now in Topeka,
and will remain permanently, assisted
by one OF more of his staff.
The reader should remember that no
charge whatever will be made for con-
sultat!on, examination or advice (medi-
cines excepted), and that all minor sur
gicaI operations will be performed
free, the only condition being that in
valids must avail themsel7 es of this
between now and February II, and
from now until that date the Office will
be kept open every day, Sundays ex-
cepted, from 9 a. m. till 8 p. m.
