Blood Needs Nerve and
Nerve is Life,

The nerve fluid or current is the
force that builds the different parts
and organs of the body. and carries
throughout the organism. orders the
various nerve centers for the distribu-
ton of the building material in the
blood.
The veins are naturally provided
with n muscular coat and also with
delicate valves. which regulate the
flow of blood according to natural de
mandS.
In varicocele the proper anatomical
construction of the veins is interfered
with and they become enlarged, or
dilated; local stagnation of blood fol-
lows and the vital nerves themselves
being closely interviewer with the
mass of varicose veins. must undergo
slow death. together with important
tissues and organs.
Varicocele denies the most vital or
gans the nerve food that supplies n
man with the very elements and es-
sence of life. No one should permit
varicocele to exist under the impress
sion that it will be improved by any
thing short of an absolute cure by my
Electric wave treatment.

Bulletin is Far From
Favorable.
STAPLES AFFECTED BY RAIN
Extensive Damage From Floods
Along the Mississippi South
of Mercer County.

Rainfall occurred practically over
the entire state every day during the
week to Friday, inclusive. The
amounts varying from light to heavy
showers. The amount was slightly de-
ficient in the central district in the
lake portion and in the southern dis
trict. The temperature was slightly
below normal, and the weather cloudy
except Sunday. Field work has been
elmOst entirely suspended, and in con
sequence weeds have begun vigorous
growth.
Meagre but alarming reports have
been received from counties bordering
the Mississippi, relative to the food.
Correspondents from Mercer county
southwark along the river have been
heard from. The extent of the dam
age cannot be estimated at this time,
but thousands of acres of corn and
wheat have been submerged, and
great destruction will ensue.
Unfavorable for Wheat.
In the central district wheat shows
considerable improvement. although
many complain of rust. In the south
ern district some fields have improved
during the week. but the reports re
ceived are uniformly unfavorahle. The
general condition in the section is
poor. In localities the crop was too
far gone for improvement. and some
fields have been plowcd under.
In accordance with previously eX-
pressed expectations To the contrary,
all corn is not yet planted The con
tinuous rains caused suspension of
all field work. On account of the
thoroughly saturated condition of the
soil, the completion OF the work will
be delayed for several days. The
plant above ground has attained
good stand. but much replanting viii

able for growth of weeds.

While many correspondents note an
uneven and thin condition of the crop
great majority report favorably.
