EuRoPe WANTS OUR APPLES.

W. Dennis S Sons, the London fruit
brokers and auctiOneerS, and extensive
handlers of American apples, have issued
their annual report on the apple season
of 1902 1903. Ii sets forth this firm :
ideas of the general prospects of the
season rs follows:
1--WE see in some of the papers that
are being published that the prospects
for the English crop were considered by
some of our neighbors a month ago Ia
be bad Whilst unable to endorse their
opinion at that time, Il decided change
for the worse has come about during the
last week, for whereas we considered a
month ago our prospects were for fair
average crop of apples, we have expert
enced three or four exceedingly stormy
days during the past week which has
caused very severe damage amongst the
apple orchards and has blown of by far
the larger proportion of the fruit. We
expect, therefore, to have in this country
no better crop than last year, and, as
YOU are aware, last years crop was the
worst we have had for many years.
The French apple crop is reported TO
be a very moderate one, whilst advices
from Belgium and Holland are 20 the
same effect. There would seem 10 be,
therefore, very little competition, even
fur your early apples.
A. for your winter varieties, they viii,
in all probability, have the field entirely
10 themselves. We hear from adyices
from your side that your crop. barring
accidents, will be biz one, and u may
fairly be surmised, therefore, that You
will this year have large quantities OF
apples for export,
You will no doubt be pleased 10 learn
that this country will present such an
open tield for your surplus stock. We
have much pleasure in placing our best
advices at your disposal, and We shall
hope during the season to be entrusted
with a fair share Of your consignments.
We can only assure you that your inter
ests will be as carefully protected by uS
in the future as in the past.

Tas EALL MIXER PAYS BEST.

The fall or winter COW Is most profit
able, says Wisconsin Agriculturalist. IL
she freshens in September or first of
October il is at time when milk begins
to advance in price. The pastures are
usually improving about this time when
the flies cease to annoy.
II properly fed, housed and cared for
through the winter the fall-calved COW
will produce good mess of milk at less
cost than during the summer. Hired
help is cheaper in winter than in sum-
mer, and the dairyman has more time to
devote To his cattle.
When spring opens and the weather
warns up, the cows will gain in milk
slightly on the succulent grass and will
hold up pretty well until about July
first, when hot weather and lilies, to-
gether with short pasture, seriously in
terfere with profitable dairying.
Thus it will be seen that the fall milk
er is at her best when milk and butter
are worth the most and when it costs
less to care for her, and she is dry dur,
ing July and August, when milk is cheap,
pastures short, weather hot, flies hungry
and the dairyman busy with his harvest,
provided, of course, that the proper
means of shelter and food are made
available. Some green crop, such as
green corn or something, to be followed
later with corn or some other form oi
ensilage, will keep up the milk flow sur
prisingly well.

TERRIBLE GIANT
IN TIGHT PLACE
Prospects Are That He Will Be
In Jail Three Years.

Flora, Ind. Sept. 9.-George Black,
the ''Terrlble Giant" of Burlington, a
small town southeast of here, has at
last been subdued. Black conducted
the Blue Goose" saloon, made famous
by being dynamited three times, until
two months ago, when the church peo-
pie paid him $500 for the saloon buil l.
ing, and he promised not to engage in
the LIQUOR business in the town again.
Scarcely a month had passed when
he opened quart shop in the cellar
under the residence. This has been
called the "Groundhog." This breach
of promise so enraged the people that
they employed Henry Hackard, a
Secret Service man, of Frankfort, Ind,
to watch Blacks place. Hackard
caused the "rerrible Giant to be ar
rested, and he was tried in this city
and found guilty of selling liquor in
an illegal manner He was sentenced
to the county Jail for 80 days. When
this sentence expires he will be tried
again on a similar charge. A new
charge will be filed against him at the
expiration of each sentence and as
there are thirty cases against him he

Wouldn't 1t make your friend mad

ard, but many women are drunkards
unconsciously from the use of coffee,
which wrecks their nervous systems,
and they seem unable to reform.
A lady in Philadelphia. Pa, was
very badly affected by coffee. causing
her to have nervous prostration, and
she finally woke up to the fact that
she was in reality coffee drundard.
Her doctor had told her that she must
give up coffee, but she seemed unable
to do it.
One day she read an advertisement
about Postum Food Coffee and thought
she would give it a trial. She says:
Coffee had such strong hold on me,
that at first did not make it all Pos
tum, but added tablespoonful of cof-
fee. After while / quit putting cof-
| fee in at all, and soon found / felt
| much better. Continued use stopped
| my headaches and biliousness, and |

evidently left me for good. Now l

smell of coffee makes me sick.

have more respect for a police uni
