Accident to Submarine Boat.

The recen accident to one of our sub
marine boats has lessened the popularity
of this class of vessels, n because of
the numerous accidents which nave over
taken them since their adoption will al
ways be regarded as doubtful. The best
defense of the country SO far as the navy
is concerned, is chiefly in our large ar
mored vessels. The best means to defend
your health can only be found in that
celebrated family medicine, Hostetter's
tomach Bitters, because it has always
proven reliable and will do all that we
claim for 1t. Hundreds of people who
have tried it voluntarily testify to the
fact that 1t positively cures f1atulency,
headache, nervousness indigestion, dys-
pepsia and malaria. Then try a bottle

BRYAN ON IMPERI ALISM.

William j. Bryan was given a tremen-
Tuesday night. Today he speaks In Reno,
Carson and Virginia City, where great
preparations nave been made to receive
him. To give an idea of the tenor of Mr..
Bryan's speeches on his present Western
tour, we quote the following from his Og-
den speech:
ITO my mind one of the dangerous
tendencies of the times is the tendency
to limit and amend and qualify great
old commandment, Thou shalt not steal
hat is the way we learned it. 1t is sim
pie, and plain and strong. But now there
are many who make a read Thou shalt
not ~steal--on a small scale daughter
and ~applause). If the scale is large
enough it is different, and | am not re-
v~ealing any secret when l tell you that as
a rule it is safer for a man to steal a
million dollars in the United States than
y SNNcA q hAlit vi. Jul 4 WOuiu ~ lCCt
so badly about it If that as the only COM
mandment that was being amended; but
they are amending all of them. There is
a commandment against covetousness
and we all now that if a man covets
something of small value, he is a sinner.
But if a nation covets the government of
another nation of 1000 islands, there are
people who call it destiny. There is a
commandment that reads. Thou shalt
not kill Now they say that you must
not kill a m~an-unIess he has something
you want. Or, as they still say, that one
man must not kill another, yet there are
people who believe that seventy million
people can band together to kill eight
million, If they can extend their trade
thereby. l think it is important that we
shall learn now that you cannot band to-
gether enough people to enable them to
do wrong with impunity. l was taught
in my youth that the victim of a wrong
might escape, but the perpetrator of 1T
could not escape. / was taught that it
was better for a man to suffer wrong
than to do wrong, and l think it applies
to a nation as well as to an individual.
Do not be deceived because the punish
ment does not follow Immediately on the
crime. A man may at fifty pay the penal
ty for sins committed at twenty-five, and
a nation may pay the penalty for sins
committed one hundred years before. Let
me give you an illustration: Seventy-ive
years before Abraham lincoln affixed his
signature to the Emancipation procla-
nation, Thomas jefferson was pleading
for the emancipation of the slave. But
they turned a deaf ear to his appeal, and
because they would not listen to him we
paid a terrible penalty seventy years
later in a war that cost us hundreds of
thousands of precious lives and hundreds
of millions of money. 1t is true of a
nation as of an individual that the har-
vest is according to the sowing. and If
this nation has sowed the wind 1t will
reap the whirlwind, though many seed
times and harvests may pass between the
sowing and the reaping."

exported every year to Europe and

Method Of Use
The material has a great number
OF uses besides It's use as a fertilizer.
1t is in the manufacture of nitrate OF
potash, which is needed to make gun
powder and fireworks; it is also used
to make nitric acid, is an essential in
the manufacture of sulphuric acid, up.
on which tae whole superphosphate o.
avoid phosphate industry depends, be-
sides great many other manufactur-
ing processes. Its great Importance
as fertilizer depends upon its high
percentage OF nitrogen and its com
plete solubility in water, thlA being
Immediately available as plant fool,
the nitrogent in 1t being already IN
the form of a nitrate, the form in
which plants prefer to take most of
their nitrogen. The nitrate of soda
being readily and freely soluble In
water, is ready for appropriation az
plant food as soon as IL Ia
put into the soil. Hence 1t
is evident that the best way to use
1t Is by application as a top dressing
Immediately before or after a rain.

Is up and needs a good send-off to do

Used In this way. the results are very
sure and very striking.
Sulphate OF Ammonia.
One other important inorganic
source of nitrogen is the salt known
| as sulphate of ammonia II Is pro-
duced chiefly as a by-product in the
manufacture of Illuminating gas from
coal; the gas Goals all contain a small
percentage OF nitrogen; when subject
ed to dry distillation In retorts, the nj.
trogen Is driven off in the form OF am
! monia gas. and is finally absorbed in
sulphuric ACID, from which 1t Is crys-
tallized as sulphate OF ammonia. This
product usually contains about 26h
per cent of nitrogen, when purified,
but If sold unpurifled as brown sui
phate of ammonia it may not contain
more than IS per cent of nitrogen. Sui.
phate of ammonia Is freely soluble In
water, and has this advantage over
nitrate of soda, that 1t does not leach
out of the soil so readily as nitrate Of
soda does, and may therefore be ap-
piled with other fertilizers in the fall
to fall crops without fear OF serious
loss through teaching during the fall
, and winter. have not mentioned all

OPEN AIR CURE.

Many invalids have found out
that they can recover their health
by living in the open air more
certainly than by taking drugs.
The influence of cold, even intense
cold, is being recognized as a pow
erful stimulant for physical recu-
peration. One man "moved his
bed out in his front porch lover
looking the Ohio river) January 6,
and slept out during the coolest
nights last winter" He writes
that his cough has vanished, his
pulse is all right, and his nerves
are in fine condition; i'll fact he
considers himself q we'll man, and
goes 50 far as to declare that he
will never sleep IN doors again
We think, however, the better
plan for many people, would be
to come south and try a more
clement temperature, in the open
air and sunshine.

We wish to give here an extract
from an article on beef production in

by of the Georgia Experiment Sta
ton, which appears in the November
number of the southern Farm Maya
zine; Il am convinced that the aver

direction. One great difficulty is in
the negro shows very little aptitude N
this line. He does well enough %
hind the mule, because neither OF
them SENS able to hurt the ether, but
the blacks who show ability In raising
cattle are SO few and far between that
II Is Impossible to depend upon them
without close personal supervision.
The best plan is for the farmer to
take hold of this matter himself. There
Is less drudgery in it than clerking in
q bank or dealing out groceries and
calico, and the profits are as certain
as in cotton growing Banks and
merchants will furnish money and sup
plies just as readyily with cattle for
security as the same number of acres
In cotton The question of men for
the work, therefore, resolves itself
into a question Of whether the Geor-
gia farmer will see his opportunity
and make the effort to take advantage
of It"

There, at high u, Sunday noon
ceases and Monday noon begins.
Sunday comes into mans house
on the east side and becomes Mon
day by the time it passes out of the
western door. A man sits down
to his monday dinner on Sunday
and it is Monday noon before he
finishes it. There Saturday is
Sunday, and Sunday is Monday
and Monday becomes suddenly
changed into Tuesday.

that people who have lost much

The Missouri river played big
joke on Nebraska City, Neb., the
other night. When the people
went to bed the river flowed by
their doors peacefully and quietly,
as any we'll ordered river should.
But when they awakened next
morning the Missouri had moved
its bed and was three miles away
from the town. And the inter-
vening territory had been taken
from Iowa and thus suddenly
brought into the state of Nebraska,
since the state line follows the
river. More than twenty farms,
it is said, have been thus uncere-
moniously changed from Iowa
into Nebraska.
