Mr. Major, the famous cement man, of
New York explains some very interesting
facts about Majors Cement.
The multitudeS who use this standard ar
ticle know that il is many hundred per cent
better than other Cements for which similar
know why. The simple reason is that Mr..
Major uses the best material ever discover
ed and other manufacturers do not use
them. because they are too expensive and
do not allow large profits. Mr.. Major tells
Us that one of the elements of his cement

cementS and liquid glue upon the market
are nothing more than SiXteen-Cent glue.
dissolved in water or CltrlC dCldand III some
cases altered slightly in color and odor by
the addition of cheap and useless materials.
Major cement retailS at fifteen cents and
twenty-five cents bottle. and when deal
er tries to sell a substitute you can dept nd
upon il that that his only object is 10 make
large profit.
The profit on Majors cement is as much
as any dealer ought to make on any cement.
And this is dOuhly true in view of the fact
that each dealer gets his share of the bene

amounts to over 5000 a month, throughout

put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurabIe
For great many years doctors pro

treatment pronounced it incurable
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional treatment

Maklue the School Better

Following excellent article appeare in
the Sunday morning Statesman /:
Toward the close of the school year is
time to begin preparations for improved
work during the next year. The idea of
progress and improvement in the public
schools should be- always uppermost.
There can be no better advertisements
for town than the knowledge that it's
schools are up to the most standard ex-
cellence and that their officers are con-
stantly seeking means to place them in
advance Of tn ,se OF a | other tIwnI.
Salem is an educational center aud
should not be content TO follow in the
wake Of other cities IL ought to cllti-
vate an ambition To lesd to blaZe.a way
in education and intellectual develop
ment that others should De proud to
follow. In the common school IL the
place in which to cultivate desire for
high standards and that desire will
receive its most powerful impetus among
the pupils from seeing it illustrated in
the system of which they form part.
There should be nothing haphazard,
or accidental, or self-developed, about
the course of study in our school. 1t
should be constructed in a manner that
would betray a purpose in every step.
IL should be a course intended for the
best possible results at the present time,
yet sufficiently elastic and progressive
to meet the requirements OF increasing
population and enlarged demands
The School Board should at once Or
ganize itself into AN Educational Com
mission for the f-rmulation OF such
course of study and should the members
Of the Board hesitate rs TO their ability
TO satisfactorily construct it, they should
call TO their aid few practicical men
or women interested in education, quail
lied by learning and experiece, pro-
gressiye in ideas and enthusiastic in
school building, who whould assist them
in the important task. There are
plenty OF such persons in the commu'
nifty who would be glad TO give some
time and labor to the cause, and when
once well-planned system is establish
ed it will prepetuate itself with lite
trouble.
Under the new school laws, which will
soon take effect, the school Board is
endowed with larger powers in the line
suggested and is the fault OF the Board
II the best means possible be not pro-
yided. This year is q splendid time TO
begin advanced work. IL 10 going to
be an educational year in Salem; IL is
the beginning OF the new century and
it should be the signals for the new and
improved methods all along the line,

STRAWBERRIES FOR
THE HOME MARKET
Three Varieties That are Re-
commended

Here are few general Instructions
about planting;
For field culture rows four feet apart
and plants two feet in row is the
general custom Keep in single hills,
cut off all runners after the fruit is off.
Unless you want to raise plants A
great many plants will form between
hills even when the runners are kept
cut off close. II you have water 80 you
can irrigate YOU can let the beds form
matted rows and get more fruit. But up
10 the time ;he runners form new plants
there must be very close cultivation a.
soon as the fruit is out Of the way andeven
hand wedding Plants set any time
from now until the middle Of May will
form matted bed, You will get baby
crop the irst spring after plants are set
out. The following year you will get q
crop of about a quarter to the plant,
and three or four times AS many from a
matted bed.

land, as 1t is less affected by late frosts
and is easier worked Select a southeast
slope TO get the morning sum. The soil
should be prepared by deep blowing, the
deeper the better, TO conserve moisture.
GoUd, strong plants should be selected
The fret plant from the hill on the run.
ner is the most vigorous, Spring settings
will do better those in the Fall. The
rows should be three feet apart, with
the plants Is to 30 inches in the row. On
account of our dry Summers, the plants
should havea level and thorough oultiva-
tion, but keep the patch free from weeds
and the runners cut off. "
About the only correct advice in the
above is that in regard to rows and how
far apart TO set plants, and that applies
only to garden patches. Valley land
raises just as large crops as the hills.
Any kind OF slope is better than north
east. as IL is best TO not have the first
heat Of the morning sun. The dew re
naming on the foliage is a protection
against frost. From the time the fruit
stems begin TO grow with clusters of
buds the cultivation had best be ex-
tremely light, aud none whatever after
blooming begins.

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also Few Facts Oa the Same Subject.

We hear much nowadays about health
foods and hygienic living about vege
tarianism and many other falls along
the same line.
Restaurants may be found in the large
cities VIII, re ! meat, pastry or coffee if
served and the food crank is in his glory,
and arguments aud theories galore ad'
vanced to prove that meat was never
intended for human stomachs, aud al
most make us believe that our sturdy
ancestors who lived four score years IN
robust health on roast beef, pork and
mutton must have been.grossly ignorant
of the laws Of health.
Our ioreiathers had other things to do
than formulate theories about the food
they ate. A warm welc me was ex-
tended to any kind from bacon to acorns
A healthy appetite and common sente
are excellent guides to follow in matters
of diet, and a mixed diet of grains, fruits
and meats is undoubtedly the best.
Az compared with grains and vege'
tables, meat furnishes the most nutrl'
ment in n highly concentrated torn and
Is digcst,d and assimilated more quickly
than vegetables and grains.
DR.. Julius Renmson on this subject
says: Nervous persous, peop'e run
down in health and low vitality should
ent meat and plenty Of it. II the diges
ton is too feeble AT first IL may be easily
corrected by the regular use OF Stuart'
Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal Two
of these excellent tablets taken attei
dinner will digest several Thousand
grains Of meat, eggs or other anima
food in three hours, and no matter how
weak the stomach may be, no trouble
will be experienced il a regular praotic'
is made of using Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets because they supply the pepsir
and diastase necessary TO perfect diges
ton, and every form of indigestion viii
be overcome by their use.
That large class of people who come
under the head Of nervous dyspeptic'
should eat plenty of meat and insure itt
proper digestion by the daily use OF
safe, harmless digestive medicine like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, composed oI
the natural diges tive principles, pepsin
diastase, fruit acids, and salts, which
actually perform the work Of digestion
Cheap cathartic medicines, masquerade
ing under the name Of dyspepsia cures
are useless for indigestion as they have
absolutely no effect upon the actual
digestion OF food.
Dyspepsia In all its many forms il
simply failure Of the stomach TO digest
food and the sensible way TO solve the
riddle and cure the dyspepsia is TO make
daily use at meal time OF a preparation
like sluart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which
is endorsed by the medical profession
aud known to contain active digestive
principles.
All druggists sell stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets for at soc, for full treatment.
