A Blow to Patent Medicines

The commissioner of internal
revenue some time ago turned his
attention to the patent medicines
which are sold IN large quantities
in local option and prohibition
states and dealt the business in these
articles Il severe blow by his de-
cisiOn that they were really alcohol
ic drinks in disguise. He is now
looking after the manufacturers of
so-cailcd favoring essences, such as
lemon, vanilla, ginger and the like.
Evidence has been secured to show
that there has been an enormous in
crease in the manufacture and sale
of "flavoring extracts" and also
that small towns in prohibition
states import and consume enough
of these extracts to flavor all the
pies and puddings made in the
whole state fora year. 1t is further
proven that these essences contain
from 25 to so per cent alcohol.
According to scientific information,
"proof spirits contain 80 per cent of
alcohol, so that IN some cases, these
essences are more Intoxicating than
bar-sold whiskey. particularly when
the latter has been diluted by the
dealer. 1t is further stated that
esseuces with these percentages of
alcohol are manufactured solely for
sale in prohibition communities and
the commissioner therefore an
nounces that both the manufacturer
and the dealer in these articles must
take out government license or be
subjected to criminal prosecution.
The decision will be regarded with
favor by temperance people, since
its tendency will be to limit the
manufacture and sale of what are
really tipples.-St Louis Christian
Advocate.

been more of Il side line than main
| business of the farm. There are one
hundred and twenty farmers supply
ing milk to this creamery. Accord
ing to report furnished me by the
secretary of the creamery, these
| one hundred and twenty farmers are
milking five hundred COWS. During
the year from September l, 1904 to
September |, 1905, the crcamey
paid to the farmers for milk, i total
of S24 ,663. 1t is estimated that it
took 800 acres Of land to support
these five hundred COWS, that is for
pasture during the summer and dry
feed during the winter, hence this is
a gross return on the land in use Of
$500 per acre. Now, these same
farmers had in cultivation last year
three thousand acres of wheat
which produced 25,300 bushels
valued at SIG, 6,446, ora gross income
per acre Of $3.50 for the wheat
From this should be deducted the
cash outlay Of s1.2j per acre for
seed and scots per acre for
threshlng and for twine, leaving
net income for the wheat of only
S3.56 per acre.
The dairy work in this case, tho
it was run as side issue Of farm
work, yielded one-third more than
the main farm work in cash and
nearly five times the annual net
profit, to say nothing Of the in
tluencc OF each on the value of the
land. 1t would require rather more
than $4,000 at commercial prices to
replace the tertilizing elements
taken from the soil by the wheat
crop. while the butter took from the
soil only about $50 worth oftcrtili-
zer.
These farmers raizsd the calves on
skim milk and corn. The profit on
the pigs fed skim milk was not OBJ
tainable but was considerable. AS !
a soll builder and mortgage litter, |
the COW stands without an equal.

The writer preached her funeral SER

How beautiful was the life of Sister

Missouri has twenty-three state in

state in the union; it has more stock
farms than any other state; 1t has
the largest acreage of blue grass of
any state; it has the largest perma-
nent school fund in the United
States; it raised one-tenth of all the
corn raised in the world; it produces
| so per cent of all the zlnc mined in
the world; it has one-thlrd more
apple trees than any other state; its
farm land has advanced 10 per cent
III the last four years; it has the
largest yield of cotton per acre of
any state in the union; it has the
lowest rate of taxation Off any state.
We thank the Star for the blush
ing frankness with which 1t enum-
crates the many superiorities ofthe

1t is certainly genuine pleasure
to observe newspapers anywhere
and everywhere ably performing
one of their vital functions in ex-
plotting the worth and industry of,
the people among and by whom
they live. 1t is doubly gratifying
in these morbid days when some
political bird with rancous voice
are given to such plttiless fouling
of their own nests.
The note Of compliment and OPP
timism is q cheering contrast and
furnishes us with welcome expert

own prosperous affairs, fail to ap-
preciatc i'll its amazing entirety. |
