CONVENIENT SCRAPER,

tongue, handles and several braces and
bolts. The length of the plank should
BE- about twice the distance between
the rows. The plank should have a
strap OF iron at the bottom in front
for cutting edge and to prevent
wear.
The tongue should be fastened to the
plank at right angles, and securely
braced, says the Ohio Farmer. The
handles, which may be taken from an
old pillow or walking cultivator, should
also be fastened and braced to the
plank. We leave each horse walk in
a furrOw. but it is better to use long
doubletree and neckyoke or shafts and
but one horse, so the potatoes DO not
get moved and tramped.
The scraper carries some ground
ahead Of it, which it pulveriZes. 1t
may be used to scrape the barnyard
if the ground is smooth.

Potassium and Humus

Potassium exists in the soil in a large,
ly insoluble form. The decay of humus
helps to free this locked-up potassium by
forming carbon-dioxide gas. This dis
solved in soil water has certain solvent

Congressman Lever was one OF the

He told of the previous attempts
to organize the farmers, reviewing
the history of the Grange and the
Alliance. He, like some of the other
speakers, urged the farmers to keep
out the politicians. Mr.. Lever had
been asked to cay something about
the cotton leaks in the agricultural
department, and he touched upon
this briefly at the conclusion of his
remarks. Mr.. Lever said it would
be mistake to insist upon the
resignation of Secretary Wilson, who
is an honest man. If Wilson had

Thousands of Women

Success Of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable

Really Does Make Sick Women Well

Thousands upon thousands of Ameri-
can women have been restored to
health by Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegeta-

in Mrs Pinkham's Office, and prove this
boast.
Overshadowing indeed is the success
of this great medicine, and compared

Why has Lydia E. Pinkhams Vege-

Why has it lived and thrived and

Simply and surely because of it's ster-

icine has even approached its success
is plainly and positively because there
is no other medicine in the world so
good for women's ills.
The wonderful power of Lydia E..
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over

WANTS STEAMERS

j. A. McCandless is of the firm opin-
ion that Honolulu needs an independ-
ent passenger steamer and needs 1t
mighty quick.
Speaking of the matter to an Adver-
tiser man yesterday, McCandless said;
''Dr. Grossman and the Promotion
Committee are getting letters by the
dozen from Shriners who intend gath
ering in Los Angeles on May and O.,
and who want to know what the rates
will be to Hawaii, what round "trip
reduction will be made, what steam
ers they can come by, what capacity
the steamers will possess and what ac>
commodations will be found at this
end of the trip?
THE steamship companies reply that
they must first of all know how many
Shriners are coming before they can
give a rate. A statement of this
nature is of course out of the ques-
ton at the present time.
1.-The correspondents are as a rule
the heads of shrines in their respec-
tive communities and each is a minia-
ture promotion committee in himself.
This shows the immediate need of
first class local steamer owned by
people who would be ready and willing
to furnish any asked for information
promptly, when ever condition of af-
fairs like that presented by the inn
pending flocking of the Shriners to the
Pacific Coast arises.

TBOP|CL LIGHT
FOE TO BLOND S

effects of Tropical Light on White
Men, is a new book by Major
Charles Il. Woodruff, A. NJ, NJ. D.,
surgeon u. S. A.
The author commenced the writing
of this work in an attempt to prove
or disprove the theory announced by
the Anthropological Society, in Mum
ich, during 1895, that skin pigmenta-
tion of man was evolved for the pur-
pose of excluding the dangerous acti-
mic, or short, rays of light which de-
stroy living protoplasm. This theory
gave, at once, the reasons for the evo-
luton of nigrescence and blondness,
the reasons why Europeans have al
ways failed to colonize in the tropics,
and why blends disappear. when they
migrate from their northern homes;
and it finally gave rise to practical
hygienic rules for white men compelled
to reside in the tropics. AS the sug-
gestions contained in this paper were
of such inestimable value provided the
theory was correct, systematic search
was instituted for data; and the dis
coveries made in this search prove the
correctness of the theory. In the pres
ent work Mr. Woodruff brings forth
these discoveries and attempts to
prove the theory conclusively. The
subject, though very interesting one
and of great Importance to all blends
in the United States, has never before
been treated extensively, and popu-
lar scientific literature has generally
ignored the real Issue. Among the
headings of chapters in this work are
the following: Ether Waves, Their Ac-
ton on Protoplasm; Difference Be-
tween Plants and Animals; Natural
Defenses of Animals from Light;
Known Effects of Light on Man; Ac-
tino-Therapy; Evolution of Blondness;
Results of insufficient fermentation,
and Practical Rules for White Men in
the Tropics. An index puts the infor-
nation contained in the book instantly
at the readers disposal.
