KILLS GERMS OF CATARRH.
Hyomei Goes to the Root Of the Dis.
ease aud Makes Astonishing Cures.

Catarrh cannot be cured by the use
of pills, liquid medicines and so.called
system tonics. Under such treatment
the germs Of the disease will still live
in the air passages and increase and
multiply.
Hyome; is the only scientific and
thorough way to cure catarrh. Kill
ing the germs in the air passages, it
enters the blood with the oxygen, de-
stroys the microbes in the blood and
effectually drives from the system all
traces Of catarrhal poison. ',s.-
Probably tho strongest evidence
that can be offered as to the powers of
Hyomei to cure catsrrh is tho Fac.
that Evans Pharmacy will agree to re-!
fund the money il you soy Hyomei
has not cured you.
The complete Hyomei outfit coats
but $1.O0, and consists OF an inhaler
that can be carried 10 the vost pocket,
9 medicine dropper and bottle OF
Hyomei. The inhsler lasts lifetime,
and If one bottle does not cure, an ex.
ira bottle OF Hyomei can be obtained
for 50c..

Butler Squelched an Intruder.

The late Benjamin F. Butler was
one of the most tactful speakers who
kept en- audience in roar, and who
won their good will, even if he did
not capture their votes, by an unor.
thodox character of his political
preaching. During one of these good
fashioned political meetings for which
Massachusetts, was noted Butler in an
outburst Of patriotism truly "made
the eagle scream" Then, for diver
sion, he engaged in the deleotable oc-
oupation of pulling the tail" Of the
British lion, just for the pure enjoy
meut Of hearing that bad tempered
and sorely harrsssed animal growl.
At one point in his address he quoted
certain English newspaper as author
ity fox his assertion.
A burly red faced man in the au-
dience, who had interrupted him once
or twice before, cried out, in heavy
bass yoice:
II don't know Of any such paper"
Butler paused in his remarks, and,
after the silence had become impres-
sive, he walked 10 the center OF the
stage, and pointing the forefnger Of
his right hand at the offender, said,
slowly and emphatically:
"Psss, mS deer s;r, De nc. interrupt
the proceedings Of this meeting, for
if you begin to tell what you don't
know there will be no time for any
thing else"
The roar ,nuine laughter that
followed co ,,tely squelohed the dis
turber, Rh> Kept silenoed during the
rempisder Of the meeting.

arm work for the insane is one of
the cures being tried now in Georgia,
says the Savannah News.
DR.. w. +. Brunner, the city health
officer, wLo is one of the trustees of
the State Sanitarium at Miledgeville,
tells of an interesting experiment that
is being made with some Of the in
mates Of the institution on farm
adjoining the sanitarium. Not only
are insane people raising excellent
crops, but the outdoor exercise is
greatly benefting them and in some
cases is affecting cure.
The experiment has been in pro-
gress only two years now, but it has
proven so successful that DR.. Brun-
ner thinks it will be extended. There
are sixty.6ve acres in cultivation and
more will probably be added next
year. Only negroes have worked on
the farm 30 far, but it is probable
that some of'the white patients will
be tried later on.
1T is astonishing to see what they
have done" ssid Dr.. Brunner. "They
are not required to work and can stop
at any time they want to-. But they
take an interest in it, and some of
them have been greatly benefited. II
was really an experiment, but it has
proven very successful so far"
So many grapes, peaches and melons
have been raised on the farm, DR..
Brunner says, that the trustees at
their meeting Friday had to authorize
DE-. Powell, the superintendent, to
sell them. The farm is we'll tended
and all the crops are good, Dr.. Brun.
ner said upon his return from Mil
ledgeville yesterday morning.
"The exercise in the open air does
the patients great deal of good.
Each of them is told that the farm
belongs to them all together, and
that they must do the best they can
with it. That is all Of them, but one.
That particular one thinks he has
charge OF the entire affair.
1.-THE man complained to the super
intendent that the hands he was work.
ing were worthless. After talking to
the superintendent and DR.. Brun-
ner while he said he would have to
get back to see that they did their
work properly.
II could do BETTER" he said to DR..
Powell, "if you would let me get rid
of these triaiug negroes and hire the
hands mvself."
DR.. Brunner says the number Of
inmatea at the eeylnm has noR gene
over 5000. The number was reached
just few days ago. The number has
increased very rapidly within the
last years.
The sanitsrium is very econom:-
cally conducted, Dr.. Brunner says
and he is high in his praise of DR..
Powell, tho superintendent.
II have always believed" said DR..
Brunner' "that no man could fill
position so we'll that some one else
could not be secured who would fill
it just as well, or better, but I will
have to make an exception in DR..
Powell's case. I don't believe the
man could be found who could do the
work there 80 we'll. 1t is an enormous
task"

 Union Springs. Nov. 5.--(Special)-A few nights ago Sam Congers, colored, was waylaid by an unknown person near Thompson, and severely bruised on the head. He was found soon after the trouble and was brought to the ofice of a local surgeon who dressed his wounds.
 John Robinson's show was here Thursday, giving two creditable per- formances notwithstanding the rain and mud. No street parade was seen, to the disappointment of every one.
 Pickpockets were numerous, at the depot. about the time of the departure of train. They relieved A. S. Ritch of s44, J. s. Mitchell. of $6s, and a num- Der of others of small amounts. T. M. Norton lost his purse but fortunately no money was in it. Sheriff Ritch fol- lowed the circus to Troy in the hope of catching the thieves, but did not. He made several arrests but finding no money on their persons they were re- leased. number of affrays occurred among the negroes in which some were badly cut and beaten.

wether's meat is tender until the goat
 reaches an old age, while the spanish wether begins to get tough after he reaches the age of one year, and con- tinues as age advances.
 Angora kids are very delicate and need careful attention until they reach the age of two to four weeks, thep they are turned loose from the stake. and kept in the pen until they are eight to ten weeks old. Then they can be turned out with the flock. The Angora Is an advantage to the cattle range. First, they destroy all the weeds and the small brush, afford- ing the grass an opportunity to grow {. l have seen in this country pastures In wet seasons where two pastures were located side by side. one pasture carried one goat to two acres. while m the other pasture goats were not allowed to run. The pasture that car ried the goats had all the weeds de- stroyed, and had a very fine coat of mesquite grass. while the pasture that the goats were kept off of was totally choked out by weeds and other rank growth, such as cattle would not eat. AS a brush destroyer the goat has no equal, there have been thousands of goats shipped in to the Northern States every year for brush cleaners. They are also used to clear up rough farm lands. In 1900 this valuable discov- cry was made in the State of Missouri.
 There was a meeting held at Kansas City by several farmers and business men. and as a result of the meeting. there was an association organized. known as The American Angora Goat Breeders Association" In less than three years there were 400 members. and nearly 10000 goats passed the ex- animation and were registered. This aided the few breeders who had nursed the fine fieeced beauties so long to put them before people in such a way that they realized the benefits of having few Angoras on their farms. Wher- ever the farmers have tried them they have found them to be very profitable :.
 I call your attention again to the uses of mohair. There is extra long mohatr, used for making wigs, doll hair and trimmings. Last year we produced some long mohair which we sold for 8 per pound.
 We have found raising Angora goats to be the most profitable business that we have ever been engaged in. We have tried sheep and cattle, yet we realize more from our goats for the investment, than anything else. We have been in the business ten years and find 1t to be a very pleasing one. as well as profitable, and think that if every farmer had a few goats on his rough land which nearly every farmer has in Texas, he would find it very remunerative.

The AnGOra Goat

Read before the Texas Farmers Con-
 gress by B. l.. Witt.
 The general public in the past has looked upon goats with a certain amount of indifference, caused by their knowledge of the native and Spanish goats. The Angora goats are very profitable animals, both for mutton and mohair. The average high grade Angora goat will clip three pounds q year. This mohair brings, on an av- craze. 80 cents per pound. It has been known to sell for $3 per pound :.
 Mohair is used for various things. such as hats, ladies dress goods. gents dress goods, upholstering, especially in coaches. There is a great variety of plushes and mattings made from mo- hair. All this has created a demand for all classes of mohair, so that the American breeders have not been able to supply this. as shown by the im- portattons made by the mills--some importing as much as 900 pounds each season. The skins from the An gora are used in large quantities. where the fleece is left on them. These skins are used In many ways. I will mention few of the most importan n uses of the Angora pelts. They are used for finishing ladies' cloaks, Iap- robes, capes and rugs, and various oth- CT ways too numerous to mention. For the production of mohair alone the Angora is very profitable animal, but the profit doesn't stop there, as the kid Is one of the most delicious of meats The Angora wether natures at an ear ly age. When Qatured they bring $2 10 $2.2S, this increases the profts to a great deal more for the Angora

Kansas Small Grain Experiments.


 Wallace's Farmer.
 The Kansas Experiment Station has sent out its bulletin No. 128, entitled, Crop Experiments in l903," which is or special interest to our Kansas read CTS. They can all secure a copy of it Tree on application to the State Expe- rement Station, Manhattan, Kansas, We deal with only those features of the report which interest to a greater or less extent our entire constituency; in other words, which give valuable les- sons to farmers in every State in the Mississippi valley. The experiments covered spring wheat, barley. oats mtilet, soy beans, COW peas, sorehums non saccharine and saccharine, such last, for example, as Kafir corn. The bulletin in addition gives the results of experiments in the cost of silae4 and the baling of alfalfa hay, besides various other matters of minor import.
 Some ten varieties of millet were tested. The only varieties which with stood the unfavorable weather and soil conditions were the common, Hun garian, German, and Siberian, three of the varieties received from the United States Department of AerIcuI- ture being practically failures. The German made the largest viAid, Si-
