A Tight Squeeze.

Brazils, Ark, May 11th.-To be
snatched from the very brink Of tfit
grave is a somewhat thrilling ex-
Carrot of this place has just passed
through.
Mrs Garrett suffered with a Cere-
bro.Spinal affection, and had been
treated by the best physicians, but
without the slightest improvement.
For the last twelve months two
doctors We're in constant attendance,
but she could only grow worse and
worse, till she could not walk, and
did not have any power to move at
Ill.
She was so low that for the greater
part of the time she was perfectly
unconscious of what was going on
about her, and her heart-broken hus-
band and friends were hourly ex-
pecting her death.
The doctors had given up all hope
and no one thought she could pos
:ibly live.
In this extremity Mr.. Garrett sent
for box of Dodd's Kidney Pills. It
was 4 last hope, but happily it did not
tail.
Mrs Garrett used in all six boxes OF
the remedy and is completely cured.
She says:
81 am doing my own work now and
feel as we'll as ever I did. Dodd's
Kidney Pills certainly saved me from
ceath."

War between Turkey and Bulgaria
Is not considered unlikely, and should
war between these nations result
there is a strong probability that

among the powers. The representa-
tives of France here
Blame Turkey
for the situation, and they feel that
Bulgaria should not be allowed to be
made the victim of any radical Turk

Toulon are expected here.
On the other hand it is known that
Germany, Austria and Russia are with
Turkey, and are anxious that all disor'
ders shall be repressed with vigor
They feel that Bulgaria deserves nc
sympathy and they will not do any
thing in her behalf should Turkey at
tack her. There certainly is a warlike
feeling in Constantinople.
Then again it must not be forgotten
that Great Britain is pledged to main
tain the integrity of Turkey. The
British government was

But still to be considered is how

A LAST RESORT.
Pure Food Should BE the First

Pure Food Should Be the First.
When the human machine goes
wrong it's ten to one that the trouble
began with the stomach and can
therefore be removed by the use Of
proper food. A lady well known in
Bristol, Ontario county, N. Y, tells
of the experience she had curing her
only child by the use of scientific food:
my little daughter. the only child and
for t,:at seGson doubly dear, inherited
nervous dyspepsia. We tried all kinds
of remedies and soft foods. At Fast.
when patience was about exhausted
and the chiid's condition had grown SO
bad the whole family was aroused, we
tried Grape-Nuts
"a friend recommended the food as
one which her own delicate children
had grown strong upon so | purchased
a boX-as a last resort. In very
short time marked change in both
health and disposition was seen.
What made our case easy was that
she liked 1t at once and its crisp,
nutty fiavo; has made 1t an immediate
favorite with the most fastidious in
our family.
"Its use seems to be thoroughly
established in western New York
where many friends use It regularly.
Il have noticed its fine effects upon the
intellects as well as the bodies Of
those who use It. We owe It much. !"

THE HEssIAN FLY.
Important Bulletin on the Hessian Fly
Prompt Action Necessary.

Prompt Action Necessary.
C. B. Waldron, in the North Dakota
Agricultural College Press Bulletin
No. 8: Recent reports give the total
insect damage for the United States in
1902 as $350,OOO,000, charging up the
Hessian fly with damage of $50,000000.
OF this sum the State of North Dakota
was responsible for something like
$2,500,000. probably more. Last year
on a 1900 mile drive through the state
l found the damage from this pest
pretty general over the eastern por-
ton. In many of the localities that l
visited the farmers were not aware OF
the damage being done, and were not
familiar with the habits Of the insects.
It was my opportunity, through the
courtesy of the different railroads, to
visit most Of the infected localities,
calling the attention Of the farmers to
the damage being done, and recon-
mending means for the determination
of this very serious pest. The fact
that the insect has been so very little
known in North Dakota makes it i'm
portant that considerable work be
done by me in the field. Through the
cooperation of the railroads this work
has been provided for the coming sea.
son.
An examination of the stubble fields
so far this spring shows the presence
of apparently healthy pupae, waiting
for warm weather to develop them.
These pupae, which represent the rest
ing stage, are small brownish bodies
resembling haxseed, and are found be-
tween the sheath and the leaf Of the
second joint above the ground. From
these the adults emerge early in May
and lay their eggs in the young wheat
Whether they pass through second
stage before harvest, as they do in
some parts of the country is matter
yet to be determined. At any rate,
an egg is deposited at the second
joint from which tiny white grub
matches that through the season sucks
the juice of the plant, preventing it
from filing we'll and causing it to fall
over just before harvest A bulletin
will be issued this season giving the
habits and life history of the Hessian
fly in detail.
Treatment.
The important point now is to ac-
complish their destruction. This is
done by burning the stubble or plow'
ing it under early in May.
It doesn't help the situation for q
man to burn his own stubble. He
should let the fire get over on his
neighbours. The adult insect is well
provided with wings, and being small
and light is capable of being carried
a hundred miles or more from where
she matches. This matter is very i'm
portant, for the insect multiplies rap
Idly. Every wheat grower should use
his influence to see that every acre of
wheat stubble is burned as soon as
possible. With proper energy applied
in this manner there should be no
damage done this coming season.

LAST PROTOCOL SIGNED.
Minister Bowen Succeeds in Getting
Things Fixed Up.

Washington, May 9. Venezuelan
protocols submitting the question of
preferential treatment to The Hague
tribunal and also protocols for the
mixed commission at Caracas were
signed at the British embassy shortly
before p. m. by Minister Bowen, Am
bassador Herbert, Minister Sternberg
and Ambassador Mayor DIES Planches.
The striking feature of The Hague
protocol is the concluding clause of
article i, which provides that in case
The Hague decides adversely to the
blockading powers contention for
preferential treatment, the manner of
payment of the other creditor nations
shall be such that no power shall OBJ
