DIR. P1ERcE's MEDICINES.

Last May, the Ladies' Home journal
printed an attack on the patent medicine
known as cdr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
tion," charging that it contained seventeen
per cent of alcohol, in addition to opium
and digitalis, and oil of anise. 1t turned
out that this statement was untrue, and
the Ladies Home Journal published re-
traction. But the retracti6n did not undo
the mischief. The sale of the medicine fell
off thirty-six per cent, and the manufac-
turer now has suit in court for damages.
1t is fact that DR.. Pierce's medicines do
not contain a particle of alcohol. opium or
other harmful drugs. The "Favorite Pre-
scription'' and "Medcal Discovery" are
compounded of medicinal principles scien-
tifcally extracted from indigenous roots.

GOOD YEAR
FOR FARMERS
Products Reached Their Highest
Value, s6,4l5,OOO,OOO.
roRN CROP HEADS THE LIST

Washington, Nov. Wealth pro-
duction on the farms of the United
States in 1905 reached the highest
amount ever attained in this or any
other country-s6, 4l5,000, 900"
In the first annual report of his third
term. Secretary Of Agriculture Wilson
presents an array of figures and state
nlents representing the products and
profits CT the farmers of the country
which he admits dreams of wealth
production can hardly equal"
Besides the enormous yield OF
wealth, the secretary estimates that
the farms OF the country have increas-
ed in value during the past five years
TO present aggregate of S6,lSS,OOO'-
900.
Analyzing the principal crops for the
year, the secretary says that corn
reached its highest production with
2. 70S. .OOO. .O0G bushels, a gain of 10000
600 over the next lowest year, 1893;
hav is second in order of value, al
though cotton held second place dur
ing the two preceding years. The hay
crop this year is valued at $6O5,OOO,-
600. Cotton comes third, with a valu-
alton of S575, 900. 900; wheat, s525,OOO-
OOOO; oats, $2S2. 100000; potatoes,
S1SS. 100000; barley, s5S,C00,OOO; to-
bacco, $52,OOO,OOO; sugar cane and su-
gar beets. s5O.00O,0O0; rice, s1S,S92.-
coo; dairy products. s665O00,0OO, an
increase of $4,000, 900 over last year.
"The farmers hen" the secretary
saws. "is becoming a worthy compan-
ion to his COW. The annual production
of eggs is now a score of billions. Poul-
try products have climbed to a place
of more than half billion dollars in
value, so the farmers hen competes
with wheat for precedence.
There are more horses, and with
larger aggregate value than ever be-
fore. Notwithstanding, as the secretary
saws. they were first threatened by the
bicycle and later by the suburban troll
lev and the automobile. He estimates
their value at 81, 100000, or nearly
as much as the corn crop, and the
value of mules at 100000.
Although mich COWS are increasing
in number and value, the report states
that other cattle and sheep have fol-
several years been decreasing. There
are 17,570,OO0 milch cows, valued at
1882. 900 900. Other cattle are numbered
at 1868. goo, with a value of s662,
OOO. 600. Swine number 47,321,0OO, val
ued at $685., ,255, 900. In the aggregate
the value of farm animals has increas
ed a few million dollars within the
year, and since the census Of 1900 have
increased 8 per cent.
With this enormous production, the
secretary says, the wants of 100000
people have been supplied with a re
naming surplus constituting a gener
GUS contribution to other nations. The
exported farm products during the ifs
cal year hiding June 80, 1905, had
value of $S27OO0,O0O.

FoRAkER,s RATE BILL
BhlO Senator Would Amend Interstate
Commerce Law.


Commerce Law.
washington, Nov. Ex-senator For
alIer presented to the senate committee
on interstate commerce the draft OF
his bill to amend the Interstate com
merce law. The senator stated that he
had tried to meet the complaints against
present railroad conditions and at the
same time avoid comforting upon the
interstate commerce commission, or
any similar body, the power over rail-
road rates.
The Foraker bill, however, provides
for enjoining the publishing and charg-
ing of excessive rates and for snjoining
and discrimination forbidden by law
whether between shippers, places, COM
modities or otherwise, and wheher ef-
fected by means of rates, rebates. clas-
sifications, private cars, preferenuals,
eor in any other manner whatever
While this does not confer upon the
court the power to fix rate 1t does
authorize the court to say what is an
unlawful rate and how much is unlaw-
full and to enjoin he carrier from
charging more than is found to be law
full. The bill also is designed to pro-
hibit the giving of passes; to allow
free access to railroad documents and
to meet complaints as to rail rates on
export and import freight
Provision is made SO that the laws
to expedite cases in the courts will ap-
ply to the new law. No carrier is al
lowed to grant a special rate or in any
manner collect from any person
greater or less compensation than 4
receives from any other person.

TAKEN FROM VAULT
Another Sample Of High Financing
by New York Life.
PERKINS EXPLAINS BOND DEAL

New York, Nov. 2S.-One of tbs
most interesting features of the life
insurance investigation developed only
a few minutes before adjournment OF
the Armstrong committee when Theo-
dore F. Banta, cashier of the New
York Life Insurance company testi-
fed that about the beginning OF 1871
Edmund D. Randolph, treasurer OF the
company, opened the vaults Of the
company, removed New York city
stock valued at 100000 and put a
check of the Central National bank for
S7O0 900 in its place. Mr. Banta said
he helped to open the vaults at the or
der of Mr.. Randolph and that he sup
posed Mr.. Randolph acted fer the n
nance committee. The stock was kept
out for a few days and was then re-
turned and the check withdrawn. the
transaction was not recorded on the
books of the company so far as MT.
Banta knew. The effect of the opera
ton would be that any one having
that stock would have 100000 worth
of taxable property at the end Of the
wear. Mr.. Banta did not know who
received the stock. Mr.. Randolph IS
expected to explain.
George w. Perkins, vice president
Of the New York Life, and member OF
the firm of ]. P Morgan & Co., de-
Eeribed to the committee the trans
action which resulted in his receipt OF
s4O.193 from Kidder, Peabody & Co., OF
Boston. as half the profits Of the sale
of $4,000, 900 worth of bonds Of the
Mexican Central Railroad company
Milton Mattison, a bookkeeper of the
New York Life, had previously testi
ned that S9SO,O0O of the life insurance
companys money was used in the
transaction and that Mr.. Perkins go'
the profit Mr.. Perkins said that ne
went into the transaction for the
Nylic fund which is owned by the
agents of the New York Life and that
he invested the profits for that fund
The life insurance company, he said
profited to the extent of 5 per cent
interest on the loan of s9S0,O0O. He
stated that the company had no righ'
to the s4O,19S profits.
Mr.. Perkins said also that J. P
Morgan & Co. had taken up notes oi
Andrew Hamilton and E. E. Mccall
formerly justice of the New Yorl
state supreme court, amounting tC
s56.310 at the request of President
John A. Mccall, of the New York Life
and that the amount with interest was
paid to Andrew Hamilton by the New
York Life for the proceeds of a syn
dicate in United States Steel stock
Mr.. Perkins admitted that he receiv
ed agents commissions on all policies
he carries.
President John A. Mccall told th'
committee that he had told the Cen
tral National bank and E. E. Mccall
that Hamilton was good for 's50,0OC
and they had then taken Hamilton
notes. He said the New York Life
owed Hamilton the $56,S10 and tool
the syndicate profits to pay him. The
result was that the payment did no
appear on the books of the company
The reason was that he wanted tt
