The Butte inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1901-1912, 1901-05-11

Professor j. Nj. Fitzgerald phrenolo-
gist of Chicago, has. turned his keen eyes
on the specula tors in the Chicago board
of trade, and Artist Coff of the Chicago
American, has drawn a composite face,
representing The American Specula-
tor"
The professor says:
I went to the board of trade to study
faces there. Such sight is enough to
startle the most calm and cause one to
stare with protruding eyes at the hum
dreds of men screaming bowling, gesti-
culating with arms and hands while they
franticallly raise their fingers. one, two
three. four at a time. 9lu
Men with heads: so broad that they al
most look like a globe We're plentiful.
This shape is caused by the temporal
sphenoidol lobes of the brain being enor-
mously developed. In these convOlutions
are the centers for the faculties of en-
ergy and acquisitiveness, and certainly
on the floor of the board of trade there
are the greatest opportunities for an
almost abnormal activity and display of
those faculties, especially the latter.
The first and most noticeable thing
about those men We're their huge heads.

Halls Catarrah cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the found ations of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution aud assisting nature in dciog it's work.

Thus the performance of the religious ceremony of marriage Is discouraged. In some cases sensible grooms have re- fused to pay from $500 to l,50U and have gone to the United States where priests were happy to perform the re- liglouS ceremony for S25 gold or, say, S52 silver. The civil marriage which alone legitimauizes children and pro yides for the due and orderly inheri- tance of property is always in order, aud many people are contenting them selves with what the law says is sui ficient. It is regrettable that mar riage should be made the occasion of extortion. and the practice should be most severely rebuked. Religion falls
 into disrepute through practices of the kind mentioned, and young people starting on the path of married life become doubters and reyilers of sa- cred things.

"A JUDGES WIFE ,zt sSsEp .s #
She Suffered for Years and
Felt Her Case Was Hope
1eSS-Cured by
Pe-ru-na.

Mrs. Judge McAllister writes from
1917 West 33rd ST.. Minneapolis, Mimi,
as follows:
Il suffered for years with a pain in
the small of my back and right side
1t interfered often with my domestic
and social duties and L never supposed
that would be cured, as the doctors
medicine did not seem to help me any.
Fortunately a member OF our Order
advised me to try Peruna and gave it
such high praise that 1 decided to try
it. Although 1 started in with little
faith, felt so much better in a week
that felt encouraged.
Il took it faithfully for seven weeks
and am happy indeed to be able to say
that l am entirely cured. Words fail
to express my gratitude. Perfect health
once more is the best thing could
wish for, and thanks to Peruna enjoy
that now."-Minnie E. McAllister.
The great popularity of Peruna as a
catarrh remedy has tempted many
people to initiate Peruna- A great
many so-called catarrh remedies and
catarrhal tonics are to be found in
many drug stores. These remedies can
be procured by the druggist much
cheaper than Peruna. Peruna can only
be obtained at a uniform price, and no
druggist can get it cent cheaper.
Thus it is that druggists are tempted
to substitute the cheap limitations of
Peruna for Peruna. 1t is done every
day without a doubt.
We would therefore caution all peo-

Spoiled by Overweight.

Farm-Poultry, an influential Boston
publication, has of late been inviting
opinions concerning the proper weight
of the American breeds of chickens,
among which are the Plymouth
Rocks and the Wyandottes. We
should say that fully two-thirds
of the breeders who have ex-
pressed themselves on the sub
ject take the position that the stand
ard weight is too high. It is claimed
that the medium-sized birds Of these
families are almost invariably better
layers than those which meet the de-
mands of the standard In regard to
weight One well-known poultry
judge, in his contribution to the dis
cussion, says that not more than one
Plymouth Rock in twelve which pass
through his hands at the shows is up

Guilty in getting their birds up to
standard weight how much more of a
task it must be for farmers who, as
a rule, can give but a fraction of their
time to the study OF the problems Of
the poultry yard. And if this heavy
weight is obtained at the sacrifice of
the laying qualities why not cut it
down? Some advertisers take great
pains to have it known that their
birds are fully up to standard weight.
Farmers should know that they can
easily pay more money for that kind
of Plymouth Rocks and Wyandottes
than they are worth.

Horticultural Observations.


The fearful ravages of the San Jose
scale are plainly evident in some of
our best peach-growing states. We
believe that some of our Illinois men
that are laughing at this pest as of
no consequence would quickly change
their minds if they could go through
the peach-growing sections of our At
1antic states. Whole orchards have,
within two years, had to be cut down,
each orchard consisting of thousands
of trees. A representative of the
Farmers Review recently visited an
orchard of thousands of trees that are
apparently doomed to the axe. The
trees are just coming into bearing, but
are SO covered with the scale that
treatment is almost out of the Ques-
ton.
The question of destroying plant lice
by fumigation is a live one and one
that is being exploited. OF old we used
to kill rose lice with the fumes of to-
bacco. The present mode includes the
killing of tree and plant insects by
more powerful gases. Thus the San
Jose scale is being disposed of by the
assistance of hydrocyanic gas applied
to the trees when the latter have been
covered with big tents. With small
peach trees the application becomes
easy, especially when the trees are
low-headed. Later experimenters are
using the same gas to destroy lice on
vegetables. Small caps are made, to
be placed over each plant. and inside
is dropped a small amount of the
chemicals that make the gas. In ten
minutes the insects are all dead, and
the plant uninjured. The process is,
however, only in its experimental
stage.

ManurIne the Soil.


A bulletin treating of methods of
manuring the soil has just been is
sued by the Experiment Station at
Saltwater, Okla. The following is a
summary of the bulletin: Without GO
ing into detail as to thu various con-
siderations that may affect the results
of manuring, at the present stage of
our agricultural practice, the chief
points to be observed are:
/. To manure the soil. Use all the
manure produced. prevent losses by
washing away, quit burning straw,
haul the manure onto the fields some
where, sometime, somehow.
2. Manure the highest and poorest
spots, give a good application at one
time-from fifteen to horse
lcads-and manure another place next
time.
8. Manure with reference to the
time of rainfall, to the next crop which
is to be grown, and to the other work
which must be done. Late fall and
winter, when other work is not press
ing, is a good time. Light top-dress-
ings may be applied to wheat in the
fall.
4. Growing crops for green manur-
ing alone is not the most profitable
method. Pasture them and pillow un-
der the remainder when about mature.
This applies chiefly to cowpeas. II
sorgum is to be plowed under, 1t
should be while the stalks are green
and juicy SO that they viii decay
quickly.

How to Dres. Calves

Calves from three to six weeks old.
and Weighing about one hundred
pounds. or, say, from eighty to one
hundred and twenty pounds, are the
most desirable weights for shipment.
The head should be cut out, so as to
leave the hide of the head on the skin
The legs should be cut of at the knee
joint. The entrails should all be re-
moved, excepting the kidneys, the liv-
er. lights and heart should be taAen
out. Cut the carcass open from the
neck through the entire length-from
head to bumgut. If this is done they
are not SO apt to sour and spoil during
hot weather. Many a fine carcass has
spoiled in hot weather because of it
not being cut open. Don't wash the
carcass out with water, but wipe out
with a dry cloth. Don't ship until the
animal heat is entirely out of the body,
and never tie the carcass up in a bag.
as this keeps the air from circulating
and makes the meat more liable to be-
come tainted.
Mark for shipment by fastening a
shipping tag to the hind leg. Calves
under fifty pounds should not be ship
ped, and are liable to be condemned
by the health officers as being unfit for
food. Merchants, too, are liable to be
