The Absenc- Of II.

II there is any truth in the saying
that happiness is the absence of all
pain. mental and physical. the enjoy
ment Of 1t can only be found in heaven.
But SO far as the physical is concerned.
It is within easy reach; at least. meas
urably so. as far as cure will go. The
sum Of human misery in this line is
made up Of greater or less degrees of
physical suffering. The minor aches
and pains which aflict mankind are
easy to reach and as easily cured.
There are none in the whole category,
which, II taken in time, cannot be cured.
They must in some form aflict the
nerves, the bones, the muscles and
joints Of the human body. They r all
more or less hurtful and wasteful to the
system. st. Jacobs Oil is made to cure
them, to search out the hidden pain
spots, and to cure promptly in q true
remedial and lasting way. Very. very
many have not known happiness for
years until they used 1t. and very many
are putting of cure and happiness be-
u they don't use It.

MINING NOTES FROM
THE WHEATLAND WORLD.

j. N. Clark, the mining man, left
Saturday evening for his home at DR.
chard Park, N. Y, says the Wheat.
land World. He was highly pleased
with the way in which the Blue Grass
district is progressing. The Bear and
other properties in that section are
showing the finest sort of copper ore.
Another ore shoot was opened in
the Iconoclast a few days since that is
better than anything encountered be.
fore in that promising property, al
though they have been working in
shipping ore for some time.
The I%conoclast and the Bear are
showing up along with the Michigan.
and many predict they will prove
equally as rich. In fact, enough work
has been done in this dictrict to prove
that a well defined copper belt exists.

The district includes the properties

LARGE SALE OF
ILLUSTRATED EDITION.

A gratifying appreciation OF the good
that will result from the industrial
issue of The Republican is shown In the
manner in which copies Of the paper
are being ordered. Orders have al
ready been booked for nearly 5000
copies and this number should be still
further increased. While this num-
Der will not cover the entire issue 1t
is advisable for those who wish any
number Of copies to place their order
at once to insure their being able to
get the number desired.
1t is no idle boast to say that this
edition will be the finest of the kind
ever issued in this state or in fact in
the west either from the standpoint Of
descriptive matter, illustrations or
workmanship. Not only the attractions
and Of Albany county will be
presented, but those of the entire state
will be covered by way of articles from
representatives al the industrial con
vention. No time or expense is being
spared to make the publication an ls-
sue of surprising beauty and 4 wealth
of information.
Merchants who desire space in the
issue should not delay as the time u
rapidly approaching when the books
must be closed. The publication will

d%oubtedly reach every home in the
county and will be cherished as a SOU

BADLY Needed Sanitation.

The city authorities should certainly
take some effective steps to improve
the gutter on Front Street between
Price & Watson's drug store and Per
kins' furniture store There is standing
water along this gutter all the time,
and this water is swarming every day
with millions of wiggle- tails, easily Wis
ible to the eye of the casual passer by.
Ii the gutter is not going to be graded
so that this water will run off, it seems
that the city could at least spend lit
tie money for crude petroleum and
have it applied to this and other SINH
lar places in town to keep the wiggle
tails from developing into swarms of
pestiferous and disease scattering mos
quitoes. In fact, a little real active,
vigorous sanitary work right now,
might save the community vast
amount of sorrow, sickness and ex-
pense later on. There are other gut
tiers, we are told, that need looking
after as we'll as this one, and there are
back yards in the business portion of
the city and in the residence portion
too that smell like anything else but

New Farm Machines.

Messrs. Nathan Smith & Bros, of
Union Hall, sons of the late Vernon
Smith, last Saturday received a patent
corn husker and shredder, which they
propose to operate on their farm the
present season in preparing stock feed.
1t will be run by gasoline engine and
corn stalks fed into it with the ears
and fodder on them, will have the corn
nicely shucked and separated, while
the stalks, shucks and blades or fod-
der are finely shredded for stock feed,
and passed out at another part of the
machine. The machine can also be
regulated so as to strip ears of corn
from the stalk and leave the shuck on,
if desired 1t is portable, and can be
placed in position and operated any
where desired.
The Smith Bros. purchased corn
harvesting machine short time ago,
which they are using in harvesting
and shocking their corn crop, prepar-
atory to using the husker and shred
der. These machines are the first of
the kind ever introduced in the coun-
ty, and the result of their operation
will be watched with interest.

LINCOLN COUNTY FARMERS'
INSTITUTE

The farmers institute, conducted by
Professors Welborn and Ferris on the
5lst ult., was more largely attended
than those previously held at this
place. Still there was plenty Of unoc-
cupied floor space that should have
been filed by Lincoln county farmers.
Prof. Ferris discussed fertilizers.
He emphasized the fact that farmers
we're paying about $500 per ton for an
Ingredient Potash) in every ton of
complete fertilizers that was of no
benefit to them whatever, a chemical
analysis of Mississippi soils showing a
sufficiency of Potash for the growing
OF from 300 to $50 crops.
Prof. Welborn discussed the i'm
provement of land by proper system
OF rotation, and an intelligent use of
fertilizers. To the all lection farmer
the picture he paints is hot one of
glowing colors. The system of rota-
tion recommended by Prof. Welborn
will be easily understood from the fol-
lowing diagram, and includes the grow
ing of cotton, corn with peas, and oats
followed by peas. This diagram repre-.
sents farm divided into three equal
parts.

The first year plat No. l made 500
pounds seed cotton per acre.
The first year plat No. made IS
bushels corn per acre.
The fourth year plat No. l made
1000 pounds seed cotton per acre.
The fourth year plat No. > made 81
bushels corn per acre, with like in
crease of crops from the other plats.
The above results were obtained from
test made at the Louisiana Expert
ment Station. Prof. Welborn claims
that the growing of COW peas, fertiliz-
ed with from 100 to $50 pounds of acid
phosphate per acre, the peas to be cut
and cured for hay and the stubble
turned under, will more quickly and
cheaply enrich land than any other
method that can be adopted by the
farmer.
1t is not only the opinion of Prof.
Welborn, but of all advanced agricul-
turists, that there should be sufficient
stock on the farm to consume all the
grain and hay produced, the manure
to be carefully saved and applied to
the land. Prof. Welborn also asserts
his belief that pork can be produced
on the farm at cost of not more than
one cent per pound, live weight. He
recommends the following system of
pasturage from an actual experiment
made by the Arkansas station, on one
and one tenth acres of land, by which
pork was produced at a cost of 4
cents per pound:
Oats. Peas. Sorghum. Peanuts
The above giving a succession of
pasturage, and one on which the hogs
do the gathering. The above expert
ment produced something over 1000
pounds of pork, worth at present
prices $500, at an outlay of about
$1,000, including rent of land.
Prof. Welborn is very positive in as
sorting that fine feed has more to do
with the production of fine cattle and
hogs than fine blood has, and that
good stock cannot be produced on the
open range. l am able 10 say from &C
tual experience that hogs can be kept
in thrifty condition from Dec. 18th to
June, on oats, without injury to the
oats. If they are inclined to root they
can be ringed at very little expense.
This institute developed the fact
that we have farmers right here in
Lincoln county who can give strong
points ON farming if they could only
be induced to talk S. p. o.
