Deafness Cannot be Cured.

BY local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; mines cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh)

1t is believed that only one sugar fac
tory in this state has greater acreage
of beets under contract than the PENN
sular refinery of Caro-. Agricultural
Superintendent Starke has worked out a
well planned campaign, and his efforts
have been very successful, despite the
fact that there has been considerable
encouragement on the part of farmers
for the past two years with beet grow
ing.
But the farmers in this part of the
state, or the great majority of them, are
reasonable and take sensible view of it.
They are willing to admit that as much
has been realized out of the beet crop,
and more, as other crops, where the
same intelligent application of labor has
been given. The price of the beet crop
is fixed in advance, and when there is
bumper crop, the amount realized per
acre is way up, while with potatoes and
other crops the price is fixed by the
supply regulating demand and some
times it is hardly enough to meet ex-
penses of it. A good beet producing
year is due for this summer, and farm
ers who do not try at least a small
acreage are likely to miss it.-Caro, Ad-
vertiser.

Perry in Politics

1t has been many years since Perry
township has asked for honors from Shi-
awassee county but has always been
loyal and liberal in supporting the sons
officially suggested to fill the offices of
said county. 1t must be conceded that
Perry possesses as good and loyal men
as can be trotted out of any township
and too it must be conceded that unset
fish aid and patience need rewarding, so
say we all of us.
After persistent urging from many
friends and politicians, two of Perry
strongest men have just decided to en-
ter the race for county honors. The
claims of these two gentlemen will be
set forth in the next issue of The Jour
nal.

WILL MAKE FIGHT FOR BEET
SUGAR.
Gong. Fordney Moving In Matter.

Bay City, Mich, May 90 Farmers
and business men holding stockin Mich
igan beet sugar factories, are much
alarmed at the outlook for that business,
it is said. Cuban reciprocity gave the
industry black eye, and now it appears
that the five year clause of that recipro-
city treaty is to be indefinitely extend
ed. A clause is to be inserted in the
party resolutions at the national conven-
tion at Chicago, indorsing Cuban reel
procity. Michigan beet sugar interests
will try to head off this Endorsement.
Efforts are now being made to enlist
the cooperation of Nebraska, California,
Colorado, Utah, Minnesota. Wisconsin,
Washington and Louisiana in behalf of
beet sugar.
Congressman J. W. Fordney and Geo.
A Loud are in the movement to aid
their constituencies. They point to the
workings of the reciprocity measure to
date, the beet sugar industry having
come to dead standstill, while Cuban
cane sugar importations are rapidly in
creasing.
The price of raw sugar, the only kind
imported from Cuba, has dropped about
90 per cent since reciprocity went into
effect, so that not Cuba, but the import
er, is reaping the benefit of that clause
of the treaty which was touted to mean
so much for Cuba.
All Cuba gains is sure market for
all the sugar it can raise, say beet sugar
men. While American labor earns but
one-half cent per pound on imported
cane sugar, it earns four cents per
pound on home grown beet sugar.
Hence Michigan wants the beet sugar
industry given fair chance to live and
increase. Michigan's delegation to the
Chicago convention will be asked to
make this protection of the infant beet
sugar industry its main business.

Beet Pulp Gaining in Favor.

According to the Binghamton, On. "
Republican of May IL, William Jordan,
a prominent farmer of this town (Galen),
has just made public the result of an ex-
pertinent carried on during three
months, with beet pulp as cattle food,
which will interest farmers generally.
Mr.. Jordan claims that the following
figures are absolutely correct. Before
he tested pulp, he fed his cattle eighty
eight pounds of hay per day and obtain
ed forty-two pounds of milk. Estimat-
ing hay at $40 per ton and milk at one
and one-half cents pound, he obtained
sixty-three cents worth of milk per day
at an expense of forty-four cents for hay.
Beginning the experiment he used a
mixed ration of beet pulp and hay; he
obtained from the same COWS sixty-four
pounds of milk per day by feeding
sixty-six pounds of hay and 324 pounds
of pulp per day. The value of the hay
and milk remaining constant, and pulp
being worth 81 per ton, ninety-six cents
worth of milk was obtained at cost of
forty-nine and one-half cents, showing
a profit of forty-six and one-half cents
day, as compared with nineteen cents
day on the clear hay ration. Mr.. Jor-
dan states that he fed the pulp to some
dry cows and they made gain of 10
per cent. He says the pulp he used had
been frozen and thrown out of the sugar
factory as unfit for shipping purposes.
He believes that with good pulp the net
result would have been much better.

Brilliant Record of a Newspaper Man.

The success which has attended Will
liam E. Curtis the famous correspond
ent of The Chicago Record Herald, is
rarely attained by newspaper writer's.
Beginning his career in Chicago in 1879
as reporter, he rapidly rose to the posi-
ton of managing editor. He resigned
that position on receiving government
appointment as secretary of the South
American commission. Mr.. Curtis
travelled extensively in Central and
South American while in this position,
producing several popular volumes as
the result of his literary labors. After
ward cooperating with Secretary of
States James G. Blaine, Mr.. Curtis or
ganized the work of the bureau of
American republics, with the result that
he was placed in charge of that organi-
cation, and at the Worlds Columbian
Exposition he distinguished himself by
his labors as the executive head of the
Latin-American department. As CORES
pondent of The Chicago Record Herald,
Mr.. Curtis travels have carried him in
to every section of the United States as
well as into all quarters of the globe.
His China and Japan letters were pub
lished in book form; likewise his letters
from England, Germany and France,
as well as those written during his
travels in Mexico and South America.
No newspaper correspondent possesses
the facility shown by Mr.. Curtis in
writing on any of the diversified sub
jects embraced in his correspondence
and making it luminous Nor is any
correspondent followed SO closely year
after year by the thousands of readers
of The Chicago Record Herald. On his
recent trip to the Holy Land Mr.. Curtis
letters have been read more closely than
ever, and his descriptions of that inter
esting section Of the globe as it appears
to-day have been quoted everywhere.
A daily letter from Mr.. Curtis appears
IN The Chicago Record Herald.

Of working out successfully in practical
operation, that affords to each political
district the chance to reform its own
political morals if they need it. and
which does not threaten party disor-
