If soft wood must be used it is we'll to
line the covers and doors with tin,
which needs only to be tackled on. The
doors must slide very easily or they
will swell up in wet weather and rem
der the trap imperative. The weights
for the doors are bolt nuts (about one
half inch bolts) and must be heavy
enough that no mouse can lift them.
But the main thing with catching
mice is the bait. We use either corn
(ears) cut into discs, bacon rind, or
cheese, according to where we wish to
set the trap. We use corn in tho
smokehouse or cellar, and bacon rind III

since November l, 1903, and was baited
with bacon rind and set in a corncrib

1t will be worth all the self-denial
that one may practice for several years
to see the Worlds Fair of 1904 at ST.
Louis. Money saved earned or bor-
rowed cannot be better spent than in
getting acquainted with the worlds
progress as revealed at this latest and
greatest of eXpositions. All of us can
not travel around the world to take
note of what the nations are doing,
but the nations from all around the
world desire us to know and have sent
their best works to st. Louis to be
placed on display.
Within The two square miles of the
LousiarG Purchase exposition at st.
Louis there is moro to be seen than
ever was brought together in ten times
the space before. 1t is great collec-
ton of eXpositions massed into one. 1t
Is nearly twice as large as the Colum-
bian exposition at Chicago, nearly ten
times larger than the Pan-American
exposition at Buffalo. Every exhibit
palace offers the equivalent of a splen-
lid exposition, each covering many
acres of space.
The largest of these is the Palace Of
Agriculture, with it's 90 acres under
roof and filled to the doors with the
most wonderful agricultural collection
ever assembled upon any occasion.
The important states and nations of
the world are all here alongside great
numbers of individual exhibitors. Five
great staples have been chosen for ex-
traordinary display. Corn, cotton,
sugar, rice and tobacco are here ar
rayed as they have never been before
and undreamed possibilities are re-
vealed to inquiring minds. Such a dairy
display was never attempted and such
collection of farm machinery and
tools was never placed on exhibition.

THE IRRIGATION PROBLEM.
Experience Proves That 1t Should Be
Studied with Care in All Parts
of the Country.

We have usually considered till very
recent years that it paid to irrigate land
only in those countries in which the
rainfall was insufficient to supply the
crops with the needed moisture But il
is being learned that irrigation pays
even in lands where the rainfall is suf-
ficient in most years. Illinois has an an
nual precipitation of about 35 inches
and Italy an annual precipitation of
about 40 inches. Few farmers in Illi-
nois would think 1t profitable to irrigate,
yet in Italy many thousands of farmers
are irrieating and consider it money
we'll spent as a crop insurance. The
leading crops in the irrigated regions
are corn, wheat and oats. Mulberry
trees are also irrigated and the irriga-
tion increases the yield of the mulberry
leaves about one-third. The farmers
there declare that irrigation enables
them to grow a crop of corn after the
wheat, and to increase the yield of al
falfa and clover 100 per cent.
Most of the irrigation work there Is
organized on the cooperative basis. The
largest of these cooperative associations
has $4,000 members and controls the ir-
rigation of 123,500 acres of land. The
system under the control Of this asso-
citation comprises 1000 miles of canals
and bitches. The main society is divid-
ed into 40 subordinate societies, each of
| which elects a member to general as
sembly, which directs the policy of the
association. The farmers there pay
about six dollars per year for The water
| Ing of each acre. Under such a condi-
tion. a crop failure is impossible

the intramural railway, which gives a

many other things Of interest to Wis
itors.
Even to the timid traveller st. Louis
presents no complications. 1t is all as
plain as b when once you get your
bearings. The streets all run east and
west or north and south with rarely
confusing diagonal. Market street and
its western extension, Laclede avenue,
are the dividing line which separates
the northern and southern sections of
the city. All streets north and south
from Market begin their numbering at
Market, so that No. 2024 South Broad
way. for example, would be 20 blocks
south from Market street. All east and
west streets begin their numbers at the
Mississippi river, so that No. 1920 would
be 81 blocks west of the river. Some
times in long block 200 numbers are
| allowed.
All trains into st. Louis arrive at
Union station, one of the finest rail-
road terminals in the world. The sta
tion is on the south side of Market
street between Eighteenth and Twenti-
eth streets, so that when the visitor
energies from the station he finds him
self at the beginning of the city num-
bering both north and south and 1S
blocks from the river
Standing on Market street with his
back to the station the downtown or
main business section of the city is to
his right about one mile. The Worlds
Fair is to his left, westward about five
miles. All the street cars are so la
beled that he may easily know which
cars to take. Cars running north on
Eighteenth street, at his right, intersect
the several car lines running between
the Worlds Fair and the business Sec
tioh of the city BY walking one, two
or three blocks to the north the Wis
itor may get a car east or west, or II
baggage laden he may take car on
Eighteenth street and get a transfer
without extra fare to any OF the cast
and-west lines except the Suburban
which is a separate car system.

building is on broad terrace half way

style of an old Roman house stands
upon lower ground directly southwest
from the larger building. The outdoor
display of ordnance is not the least in
teresting of the government exhibits.
The Palace of Art at the Worlds Fair
contains 1856 galleries. Each gallery
is large room, lighted from above
and filled with the choicest works.

The School Principal Talks About
Food.

The Principal of High School in

For % years worked in the schoo
formed the habit of eating rapidly,
masticated poorly which coupled with
my sedentary work led to indigestion,
liver trouble, lame back and rheuma-
tism.
Upon consulting physicians some
doped me with drugs, while others pre-
scribed dieting and sometimes | got
temporary relief, other times not. For
IL years l struggled along with this
handicap to my work, seldom laid up
but often burden to myself with
iameness and rheumatic pains.
Two years ago / met an old friend,
physician who noticed at once my
out-of-health condition and who pre-
scribed for me an exclusive uiet of
Grape-Nuts, milk and fruit.
II followed his instructions and in
two months felt like a new man with
no more headaches, rheumatism or
liver trouble and from that time 10
this Grape-Nuts has been my main
food for morning and evening meals,
am stronger and healthier than have
been for years without trace of the
old troubles.

physical and mental state tell my
people Methuselah may yet have tc
take second place among the old men,

more years.

in size, covering Is acres. One may
only hint at the wonders it contains.
The historical exhibit of locomotives is
one of the features. 1t shows the de-
velopment of rs years in locomotive
construction. Strange indeed is the
person who is not yet impressed with
these evidences of mans long struggle
with the problem of rail transportation,
the most civiliZing of modern influ-
ences, next to the newspaper, which
must always stand first To describe in
detail this exhibit would be long story
in itself. The exhibit is made COM
plete by the installation of the largest
locomotive ever built and by some
magnificent imported locomotives. We
cannot leave the Palace of Transporta
tion without a reference to the great
automobile show. the motor boats and
other water craft, and the great car
riage display.
Now let us cross the flower gardens
to the Palace of Machinery just south
of Transportation. The huge power
generators are the first things to arrest
the eye-the AllisChalmers engine of
5,000-horse power the Curtis steam tur-
bine of S000-horse power, the Parsons
steam turbine of 5000 kilowatts. the
four Westinghouse generators of 5000
horse power each. and each as high as
house And then other generators
great and small of all kinds-the most
wonderful display of engines ever as
sembed. But these are not all Think
of ten acres of glistening machines of
every kind and you have some idea of
the contents of the Palace of Machin-
cry.

and come to the beautiful Palace of

size and stands on the opposite side OF

of its contents. Here again the nations

from all parts of the United States dis
play their best products,
Opposite the Palace of Manufacture
to the southwark is the Palace of Edu
