PROPER GROWING OF ALFALFA
It's Great Penetrating Power OF Mueh
Benefit TO Land

Mr.. Charles W. Irish, chief Of irriga-
tom inquiry. United States department
Of agriculture, in an PARTICLE on "Alfaita
and Where to Grow It. - makes the fol-
lowing interesting observation; THE
writer had an opportunity to observe the
great depth to which alfalfa roots Will
nepetrate in search Of moisture, while
making a survey of a mining tunnel III
Nevada a few years since, The tunnel
WAS driven into a rock known 70 miners
as 'rotten porphyry, 1t was much
scattered and scanned, and through the
crevices in the rock in the roof of the
tunnel waiter came down from an old
field of the plant over the unnelthTough
a depth of soil aud rock 12G feet. -
This unusual penetrating power is OF
the greatest agricultural Importance
The alfalfa thereby not only obtains its
food from far below the root-range Of
ordinary crops, thus leaving the 'nrtace
store for Ghallower feeders, but when
these deep boring roots die and decay
they leave not only their own fertili1iDg
properties. but innumerable openings
for air and moisture and humus from the
surface to penetrate This, at first
| thought, might not appear of much i'm
nortance, but in a well.set alfalfa field
/ five years old, five feet below the sur
face, there would be from ten to thirty
roots to each square foot, averaging an
eight of an inch in diameter, reaching
/ directly from the surface. With this
fact known, the value of alfalfa as both
subsoiler and fertilizer is more easily
appreciated,

Wedding Bells in Cornwall.

There was very pretty home we'd
ding at the pleasant residence of Mr..
and Mrs. G. F. Casey in Cornwall,
Thursday evening, Jan. s, 1903. when
their only daughter, Harriette Eugena,
was united in marriage to Robert Woos-
ter of Whiting. The ceremony was
performed by Rev G. w. Jones. A
large circle of friends and relatives were
present. The house was tastefuly de-
corated with evergreens and flowers.
At $50 O'Clock the strains of the Wag-

Fire at East Mid d e bury.

The people of this village were alarmed
by the cry of fire early Saturday MORN
ing. Upon investigation it was found
that the home of Charles Belden, near
the forge, was in flames. Mr.. aud Mrs.
Myron Reed occupied a portion of the
house and 1t appears that Mr.. Reed arose
and lighted fire in the kitchen range,
Shortly afterwards fire was discovered
In the partition through which the stove
pipe passed and had gained such head
way that it was impossible to extinguish
it and efforts were made by the neigh
bors, who had by this time arrived, TO
remove the furniture and to prevent the
barn, which was near by, from burning.
The house was entirely consumed and
the barn damaged to certain extent
The house was fully covered by insur-
ance and Mr.. Reed secured small
amount on his furniture. Mr.. and Mrs.
Belden now occupy the place recently
vacated by DR.. j. NJ. Stafford, and MIR.
and Mrs. Reed have leased the tenement
belonging to Matilda Baker.

COSTS NOTHING UNLESS
CURED.
A Fair Offer Made by DIR. w. ii. sheldon to
All Sufferers From Catarrh.

Fair Offer Made by DIR. W. ii. Sheldon to
All Sufferers From Catarrh.
DR.. W. II. Sheldon is selling Hyomei
on a plan that has caused considerable
talk among his customers.
The plan is different from that fol-
lowed by other remedies, but the remedy
itself is different also. This treatment
for the cure of catarrh has such an I'M
usual record of cures TO its credit that
DR.. w. ii. Sheldon offers to refund the
money if it does not give the desired
benefit. This is certainly one of the
fairest offers that can be made, and any
one who has catarrh and does not take
advantage of it is doing himself or her
self an injustice.
The Hyomei treatment consists of an
inhaler that can be carried In the vest
pocket, a medicine dropper and bottle
of Hyome. The complete treatment
costs but Sl.00 and as the inhaler will
last lifetime and there is sufficient
Hyomei for more than months use,
the medicine is very inexpensive. Many
people who have used it write that for
the good Hyomei has done them they
would willingly pay thousands of dol
lars.
Extra bottles of Hyomei can be pro-
cured for use with the inhaler at soc.
Do not suffer any longer with tickling,
smarting, irritating, burning, eye-water-
ing troubles that afilct those who have
catarrh. Hyomei will cure you, but If
you should not find it adapted to your
case, DR.. w. III. Sheldon will return your
money.

LIKE FINDING MONEY.
milford II. Burt Offers Popular Medicine
at Half Price.

milford II. Burt Offers Popular Medicine
at Half Price.
milford r. Burt, the popular drug
gist, is making an offer that is just like
finding money, for he is selling regu-
lar 80 cent bottle of DR.. Towards cele-
brat,d specific for the cure of constipa-
ton and dyspepsia at half price. In
addition to this large discount he agrees
to return the money to any purchaser
whom the specific does not cure.
1t is quite unusual to be able to buy
fifty-cent pieces for quarter, but that
is what this offer really means, for it is
only recently through the solicitation of
Druggist Milford r. Burt that this
medicine could be bought for less than
fifty cents. He urged the proprietors
to allow him to sell it at this reduced
price for little while, agreeing to sell
a certain amount. The result has justi-
fled his good judgment, for the sale has
been something remarkable.
Anyone who suffers with headache,
dyspepsia, dizziness, sour stomach,
specks before the eyes, or any liver
trouble, should take advantage of this
opportunity, for DR.. Towards specific
will cure. But if by any chance it
should not, milford r. Burt will return
your money.
The specific is very pleasant to take,
coming in the form of small granules,
and there are sixty doses in every pack
age. 1t is especially convenient when
travelling, and no one should start on a
Journey without bottle of this reliable
medicine.

GIVES RELIEF QUICKLY.
Regular Use of Hyomei Cures Most Stub
born Case of Catarrh.

Regular Use of Hyomei Cures Most Stub
born Case of Catarrh.
No other medicine gives such prompt
relief as Hyomei in the treatment of
catarrh.
The first breath of this remedy soothes
and heals the irritated and smarting air
passages, and the regular use for few
days or weeks will cure the most stub
born case. Some of the reports from
those who have been cured of catarrh by
Hyomei read like miracles.
John S. Gray, of Redmond Hills, Pa,
writes: 81 am 81 years old and have
been sufferer with catarrh in the head
for % or 80 years. | have doctored with
many specialists and they all told me
that the disease was incurable on ac-
count of my age. After using Hyomei
short time | was greatly benefited
and can now say that ! am entirely
cured. 1t has been six months since ]
stopped using the remedy and | still
remain cured"
In nearly every town and village of
the country can be found those who
have been cured of catarrh by Hyomei.
In Middlebury there are probably over
a thousand people whose health has
been restored by this remarkable treat
ment.
DR.. w. Ii. Sheldon has sold package
after package and every one has been
with his personal guarantee to refund
the money if it did not cure. Only two
outfits have been returned and in each
instance the money was paid back with
out question.
You run no risk whatever in buying
Hyomei and your word decides the ques-
ton as to whether you pay for the
remedy or not.
Can you afford to suffer longer with
catarrh when you can buy guaranteed
treatment on this plan?
