Hemp In Kentucky.

Our best black land is used for this
money crop, whether for seed or fiber,
though seed may be raised profitably
on land not strong enough for fiber
hemp. A large mount of money was
made last year on hemp. as the yields
and prices were good. Some farmers
are paying $40 per acre rent for hemp
land. On this they raise 1000 to l.
200 pounds per acre, worth now 30
per 100. Expenses are counted now
at $40 to $50 per acre, for there Is re-
quired a great deal of manual labor,
mostly negro. This, still, is remun-
erative 70 the renter, and a great deal
more so for the hemp raiser who owns
his own land. Hemp for fiber is sown
broadcast, and so there is no cultivat-
ing, but for seed it is drilled or
checked like corn and cultivated.
There is less manual labor required
in seed raising than fiber growing.
Some have raised as high as 20 bush
els per acre, worth this spring 81 per
bushel, but too many sold last fall at
So to $3.50. Hemp seed raising re-
quires a period like corn, but the fiber
crop is seldom cleared up much before
the next crop. Hemp may be grown
year after year on the same ground,
in fact. many think it enricheHs n
At least there is no perceptable de-
terioration. One man raised it on the
same ground for nine consecutive
wears, and Il corn crop the tenth year
was extra good. The work of cutting
hauling and breaking the fiber and
threshing the seed is done by hand.
Various machines have been made but
all were discarded as impractical, so
the negro still has the tield.-Cor.

A Maryland Wonder.

Upper Cross Roads, Md, June 18TH
Never in the history of medicine in this
state has anything created such a SEN
sation by its marvellous cures of the most
extreme cases as Dodd's Kidney Pills.
This wonderful medicine seems to know
no limit in it's wonder working power.
Long-standing cases that nave defied the
most expert medical treatment seem to
yield easily to this new conqueror of dis
ease.
Hundreds have testified to the virtue
of Dodd's Kidney Pills. They tell of Sc
we're cases of Rheumatism, Lumbago,
Backache, Female Trouble, Nervous Dis
eases and even Dropsy, Diabetes and
Bright's Disease cured by this medicine.
Among those who have been benefited
may be mentioned Mrs. John Cooney of
this place.
Mrs. Cooney says:
Il believe Dodd's Kidney Pills the best
remedy ever known for Kidney Trouble
and weak back.
They are without exception the best
medicine | have ever used.
Il will always praise them highly, for
/ know that they are good"
Mrs. Cooney is only one of many who
say of Dodd's Kidney Pills:
THE most wonderful remedy we ever
heard Of"

Delta region. There Is also what IL
known as the Bluff Formation, which
is a range of high land commencing at
the Tennessee line, in DeSoto county,
and running southwest, following the
bend of the Yazoo river, but several
miles to the east of that stream, un-
til 1t comes into the Mississippi river
at Vicksburg. Here 1t widens out con-
siderably and follows the banks OF
the Mississippi to the Louisiana line.
In these grand geographical divis-
ions is comprised every variety OF
soil. The alluvial land of the delta
is world-famous as ~outrivaling
the famous Nile valley. The delta
was characterized by the great Prem
tiss as the 'cornucopia of the world"
Its productive power seems unbound
ed. The crops of the delta are cot
ton and corn, and the soil is so Pc
culiarly suited to the former that it
is doubtful if any other land on earth
can equal it for cotton production.

partment of Agriculture thus COM
pares the annual crop values Of i'm
proved lands in Mississippi and other
States:

Washington. July Bland Commis-
sioner Richards has determined to as
certainthe true conditions with refer
ence to taking up the lands in the aban.
doned Fl. Buford military reservation,
North Dakota. It has been reported
here unoffciallv that desert land en-.
tries have been made for large portion
of this reservation in the interest of
stock men who have been grazing their
cattle there during the many years it
has been Withdrawn from settlement
It is also said that the filing of these
desert land entries has barred leeiti
mate homesteaders from taking the
land and that contests will result which
will cloud the titles for long time. 1t
is said, at the land Office that desert
land entries may be made for these
lands and, that such filings would if
made for the legitimate purpose of re-
clsmation bar homesteaders, but if
these desert entries were made in the
interest of third party, such entries
would be void. An inquiry will be
made into the question of good faith on
the part Of those making entries. 1t is
probable that the special agent now in
that section will be detailed for that
