HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with
your water and let it stand twenty
four hours; a sediment or settling
indicates an unhealthy condition of
the kidneys; if it stains the linen it
is evidence of kidney trouble; too fire.
quent desire to pass it or pain IN the
back is also convincing proof that the
kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney and
bladder remedy, fulflls every wish in
curing rheumatism, pain in the back,
kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. 1t corrects
inability to hold water and scalding
pain in passing it, or bad effects fol-
lowing use of liquor, wine or beer, and
overcomes that unpleasant necessity
of being compelled to go often during
the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. It stands the high
est for it's wonderful cures of the most
distressing cases. IF you, need a
medicine you should have the best,

dollar sizes.
You may have a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root and a book that tells
more about it, both sent absolutely
free by mail. Address DR.. Kilmer &
Co., Binghamton, N. Y. When
writing mention that you read this
generous offer in the Progressive Far
mer. Don't make any mistake, but
remember the name, Swamp-Root,
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and the
address, Binghamton, N. Y, on every

ALLIANCE AND FARMING MATTERS IN

Cor. of The Progressive Farmer.

Cor. of The Progressive Farmer.
The time is at hand when all the
farmers and laboring people of this
State should organize themselves into
one body, for in union there is
strength"
All the old sub-Alliances should at
once call meetings and reorganize and
work for the good of the Farmers Al
lance. Ali that is necessary to reor-
ganize is to call meeting of the old
members, elect officers for the ensuing
year, and get some good member of
the order to exemplify the secret work
of the Order and go to work in earn
est. Order goods from our State Bus
iness Agent, Brother T. B. Parker,
Hillsboro, and see what great benefit
At will be. Our business is being done
in a more business-like manner at
present than it was done when the
Alliance was first organized in this
State.
Every member of our order should
do everything possible to induce all
good farmers and laborers to join.
We think it would be unwise for US
to sell dur shoe factory property
for the best shoes we can buy in this
vicinity We're made there. We should
run our factory at least two or three
months next fall, and all the sub.
agents should see to it that our foot
wear is of our own manufacture.
Crops are looking fine in this vicin-
ity. Indeed, prospects for success are
very promising at present.

OUR NEW YORK LETTER.

Topics.
Cor. of Ne Progressive Farmer.


Cor. of The Progressive Farmer.
1t will probably be rather hard for
many readers of The Progressive
Farmer to comprehend that the burn
ing of soft coal in New York City
makes any material difference. But to
dwellers, the Estate of things" which
we are undergoing at present is GER
tainly far from a pleasant one. Huge
chimneys are pouring forth great col
umns of smoke and SCOT, and on four
of the principal thoroughfares the ell
evated railroad is pouring out the
same on both sides the street, at lev
ell of the second story windows, from
trains only 80 or go seconds apart. In
the harbor, the ferryboats and other
craft are contributing their quota,
and the result is that our atmosphere
is fast becoming like Pittsburg. One
cannot leave a window open if he
wants his stationery to remain unspot-
ted; our beautiful buildings assume
the hue of smoke, and general dscom-
fort prevails. The elevated road has
been compelled to use what hard coal
it could find to obviate the smoke, but
the supply will soon be exhausted and
they will then fall back on soft coal
TO the small consumer the advance in
price has a telling effect, and every
body is hoping for an end to a condi-
ton which is intolerable. I believe
the time will come within 25 years
when such things cannot happen;
when strikes will be conspicuous by
their absence" as they are in New Zea-
land. It may be that the Government
will have to own the mines, but one
way or another this everlasting labor
struggle has got to be adjusted. When
a big mill is compelled to stop work
because 1900 hands walk out, alleging
that they are working with five girls
whose relatives are non-union men, it
is time that something was done. The
boycott is the most terrible engine
ever put into operation and it ought to
be impossible to make it work in
America, however beneficial it may
have once been in Ireland. When men
will learn to reason together all these
horrible things will become simply
Nightmares. Meantime we must suf-
fer, albeit we have nothing directly to
do with the situation of the miners.
1t is always the dear public that catch
es it.

er proves favorable; but no matter If
it exceeds all others the market is so
well cleaned up that a pack of 7,OOO,-
600 cases Gone dozen per case) will
not probably sink quotations much be-
low those prevailing now. It will be
well for your readers to look into this
canning business further than is GUS
tomary. Gamers have not made a
very large margin for several years,
but this year and next promise to see
labor generally well employed, and
this calls for large food supplies. Pro
visions are high, mess pork in a whole
sale way being worth $19.00@19.75,
and clear, $21.5O per barrel. Family
beef, $16.5O per barrel; lard, western,
1895 cents.
,CHEAP SUGAR AND COFFEE
Since the 1st of last July there have
been received at the ports of Rio and
Santos in Brazil 15,278,OOO bags of
coffee. These weigh about 13O pounds
each. The world needs about 10000
900 to 100000 bags. In addition to
the Brazil there is quite a lot from
Central America, Venezuela, Java,
ETC., and altogether the supply of cof-
fee is so tremendously large that it
threatens to swamp the markets Of the
world. In a cargo way Brazil No.>7 is
worth only 81 cents. Sugar is anoth-
er article that is in large oversupply,
and the amount of raws in the world
is about a million tons or almost 500,
900 tons greater than on January /.
This huge supply betokens cheap re-
fined sugar for long time to come,
and we may yet have "three-cent" su-
gar on our breakfast table. Cuba will
produce tits said on the best authori-
ty, 775,OOO tons from the present cane
crop. There arrived here 1900 tons
this week from Cuba. r. A. DIX.

FARM PAPERS

The Progressive Farmer is to be
congratulated upon its new dress and
generally improved appearance. 1t
indicates success. Fact is, that agri-
cultural papers all seem to be flourish
ing, and it is said that the Hoe Print
ing Press Co., is making the largest
press in the world for printing the
American Agriculturist. May the
good work go on. The publications
flourish because their readers do, and
the readers flourish to a great extent
because of the excellent advice given
by the agricultural press. Time was
when it was thought funny to tell the
story of the editor of a farm paper
going into the country and seeing a
COW asked what large animal that was.
But the agricultural editor of today
has had his schooling on the farm, and
knows whereof he speaks. The editor
who makes the biggest ass of himself
is the man who conducts such papers
as Puck and takes pride in ridiculing
the man from the country who is ever
lastingly buying gold bricks. And
some of the illustrated papers are just
about as valuable
FRUIT AND FOOD PRICES
A letter from Michigan tells me of
bushels of strawberries seeking some
one to take care of them and actually
going to waste and also informs me
that the peach crop will be so large
| that it cannot be used and many bush
els will, be wasted. To a city dweller
such letters give a tired feeling. It
is to be hoped that trolley tracks will
in due time be so numerous thai the
surplus fruit can be shipped from any
point to market; but of course there
comes time when the largest markets
are swamped, as has happened here at
times when North Carolina sent in her
surplus watermelons No matter how
plenty stuff is, have noticed that we
| always have to pay about the same

vance in price of certain canned goods.
