LOCAL COMMENT

& + rs
Next to the low rate excursions that
are being promoted by the MARSHALL
town Retail Merchants Association,
the best proposition that has been adj
vanced is the weekend excursion plan,
as contemplated by the Chicago Great
Western. This Is to promote passen-
ger traffic among local points. and has
proved in years past to have been a
good plan. At one time, several years
ago. all the roads out of this city sold
reduced rates on Saturday nights. good
to return on the first train Monday
morning. This increased Sunday BUSH
ness, when travel Is usually light. For
some reason. however. the ddea became
in disfavor. and the rates were abol-
ished. Now the Great Western goes
even farther In a similar plan, and
aside from putting into effect one-fare
rates between stations within a radius
OF $50 miles. on Saturday nights. 1t
has devised plan whereby each week.

on Fridays. tickets will be sold at
points over seventy-fve miles and un-
der one hundred and fifty at one and
one third fare for the round trip Inc
return limit is made five days, thus
giving the excursionists opportunity
for short visits with friends. Still an
other plan has been decided upon, IN
the same line, and Is for the benefit
OF those who care to make longer
journeys. These tickets will be sold
on Fridays between all points on the
line excepting some OF the larger
cities, and will be good for those peo-
pile who want to travel over 100 miles.
The rate proposed is one fare plus "
for the round trip. with extension
privileges under certain condltlohs.
Such a plan as the Great Western pro-
poses cannot help but benefit all the
cities and towns the road touches, ana
should also result advantageously to
the railroad company.

sition sufficiently to guarantee any

much. however, for one man to handle.

anyone should ever assault him has all

wounds received at that time conspired
with his other worries to make his few
years in Marshalltown disappointing

sincere sorrow that the men who knew
him look upon the suffering which
drove him to so sad an end.

YOU HAVE NO RIGHT
TO Suffer from Constipation, Bowel
and Stomach Trouble.
}. What is the beginning of sickness:

@. What is the beginning Of sickness?
A. Constipation.
@. What is Constipation?
A. Failure of the bowels to carry off
the waste matter which lies in the ali
mentary canal where it decays and poi
sens the entire system. Eventually the
results are death under the name Of some
other disease. Note the deaths from ty-
phoid fever and appendicitis, stomach and
bowel trouble at the present time.
q. What causes Constipation?
A. Neglect to respond to the call of
Nature promptly. Lack of exercise. Ex-
cessive brain work. Mental emotion and
improper diet.
Q. What are the results Of neglected
Constipation?
A. Constipation causes more suffering
than any other disease. 1t causes rheuma-
tlsm, colds, fevers, stomach, bowel, kid
ney, lung and heart troubles, etc. 1t is
the one disease that starts all others. In
digestion, dyspepsia, diarrhea, loss Of
sleep and strength are it's symptoms
piles, appendicitis, and fstula, are caused
by Constipation. Its consequences are
known to all physicians, but few suf-
ferers realize their condition until it Is
too late. Women become confirmed in
valids as a result of Constipation.
@. Do physicians recognize this!
A. Yes. The first question your doctor
ASK you is ARE you constipatedT That
is the secret.
@. Can it be cured?
A. Yes, with proper treatment. The
common error is to resort to physics, such
as pills, salts, mineral water, castor oil, in
iections, etc, every one of which is in
furious. They weaken and increase the
nalady. You know this by your own ex-
perience.
o. What then should be done to cure i?
A. Get bottle Of MulIs Grape, Tonic
at once. MulPs Grape Tonic will posi-
lively cure Constipation and Stomach trou-
Bile in the shortest space of time. No
other remedy has been known to cure
Constipation positively and permanently.
@. What is Mull's Grape Tonic?
A. It is Compound containing AZ per
cent of the juice of Concord grapes. 1t ex-
erts strengthening, healing influence
upon the intestines, SO that they can do
their work unaided. The process is grad-
ual but sure. 1t is not q pbysic. 1t is
unlike anything else you have ever used,
but it cures Constipation, dysentery, stom-
ach and bowel trouble. Having rich.
fruity grape flavor, it is pleasant to take.
As a tonic it is unequaled, insuring the
system against diseases. 1t strengthens and
builds up waste tissue.
o. Where can Mulps Grape Tonic be
had?
A. Your druggist sells it. The dollar
bottle contains nearly three times the 5O-
cent size.

mothers. A Free Bottle to all who have

FERTILIZINC ORCHARDS.
W. F. Massey Tells How This Work
Can Best Be Done-Fruit Trees
Need Enriching.

Farmers as a rule realize the i'm.
portance of fertilizers OF their annual
crops, but when it comes to the or
chard they imagine that an apple or
a peach tree or other fruit tree can
get all it<needs from the natural soil.
And not only do this, but the orchard
is often expected to furnish hay or
pasture for stock. The result of such
treatment is seen all over the coun-
try in decrepit trees and poor crops
of fruit, and the growers say that the
climate has changed. and they can
no longer grow fruit as they formerly
did, when in fact soil exhaustion is
at the root Of the whole tnOuble
When one considers the great amount
of plant food that has been taken
from the soil to build up a great apple
tree, and that a crop of apples takes
from the soil mineral matters to
thrice the extent that crop Of wheat
of % bushels per acre will take, the
reason for the failure Of the fruit
becomes apparent. In the early
growth of an orchard we want the
trees to develop fast, and hence we
fertilize the soil with complete fer
tilizer and grow some truck crops
in it that need such feeding. But
after the tree has gotten into bear
ing condition we can put the land 10
grass and cut it several times during
the season, and let the cut grass rot
on the land, and can thus supply all
the nitrogen needed, especially if
clover is grown. Plenty Of white
clover among the grass, well supplied
with acid phosphate, and potash
mixed five parts of the first to one Of
the last, will supply in 400 pounds per
acre what the fruit needs for its per-
lection. Try this and see if the fruit
does not respond.
