The readers Of this paper will be pleas
ed TO learn that there is at least one dread
cd disease that science has been able to
cure In all its stages, and that is Catarrli.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure known to the medical fraternity. Ca
tarrh being constitutional disease, re-
quires constitutional treatment. Hall $
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system, thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have so much
faith in its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any ease
that il fails to cure. Send for list of tes-

The opportunity to act is now
presented to the Senate. Are the
Republicans sincere in their pro-
fession of hostility to trusts' Ii
they are, they need not embark
upon any crusade against trusts
nor undertake to frame difficult
legislation, which is likely to inter-
fere with legitimate business opera
tons now necessarily conducted on
a large scale; they have only to
repeal, as the House has done, an
unnecessary and unjust extra duty,
which does not help any industry,
but does take money from the
consumer. The congressional cleo
tons are impending, and a wrong
decision will also be bad policy

QUALITY COUNTS.

The Signal has commended for 10,
these many moons that it is better
for rice planters to plant a small
acreage and use little more care
in selecting seed and properly pre-
pairing the land they do plant to
receive it. The following, taken
from an interview with Gustave "A.
jain. of New York, the great
miller, planter and rice expert,
only coroborates the theory which
the Signal has advanced. Mr.. jain
says:
"The rice industry is already a
great industry in this section, and
pays better than anything else IN
the southwest. The quality of
rice, though, is deteriorating
through carelessness in the selec-
ton of the seed, and carelessness
in cultivation. When the planters
realize that better quality of rice
demands a better price they may
pay more attention to it. The cul-
tivation of rice pays we'll, but there
is lots of room for Improvement.
The standard could be raised by
the better cultivation of land.
Clean new seed should be planted,
aud changes should be made fire.
quently so as not to plant the same
rice in the same field more than
two years. Then, too, the rice
lands should be kept free from
grass seed and we'll weeded. If
the proper attention is paid to rice
before it is harvested the quality
will be much higher than when it
is neglected, and will command a
higher price. "-Orowley Signal.
