Peru ma Contains No Narcotics.

One reason why Peruna has found per-
manent use in SO many homes is that it
contains no narcotic of any kind. Pc
runa is perfectly harmless. 1t can be
used any length of time without acQuir-
ing a drug habit. Peruna does not pro-
duce temporary results. 1t is permanent
in it's effect.
1t has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re-
moving the cause of catarrh. There are
a multitude of homes where Peruna has
been used off and on for twenty years.
Such thing could not be possible il
Peruna contained any drugs of a mar
cotic nature.

FEARS FOR WINTER WHEAT.
Bureau Reports February Cold and
Shows Danger to Crops.


The weather bureaus monthly sum-
mary of crop conditions is as follows:
East Of the Rocky mountains Feb
ruary, 1905, averaged very cold with
much more than the average precipitation
in the south Atlantic and gulf districts
and decidedly less than the average over
the greater part Of the central valleys,
middle Atlantic States New England and
lake regions. During the great part of
the month there was ample snow cover
ing over much Of the winter wheat belt,
but much snow disappeared after the
Goth, leaving the southern and western
portions without protection.
In California the month was abnor~
mally warm with plentiful rains in the
southern districts. Unusually heavy
precipitation occurred in New Mexico,
Arizona and portions of Colorado and
Utah.
In Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas winter
wheat has passed the winter thus far in
good condition. but some doubt is enter
tanned as to what its conditions in Hi
nois. Indiana and Ohio will be when
snow disappears The crop has. how
ever been generally we'll protected in
these last named States and also in the
middle Atlantic coast districts. The con-
dition of winter wheat on the Pacific
coast is favorable, except in Washington
where it experienced severe freezing
weather.
The intensely cold weather in the
States of the upper Mississippi and lower
Missouri valleys is reported to have caus-
ed injury to fruit buds principally
peaches. but in the Atlantic coast dis
tricts fruit buds are believed to have es-
capped material injury thus far.

An Essay On Poultry Raising From
Number Nine.

Poultry raising is pleasant and
profitable occupation they say, but
nav has never made any money
outen the business and never
found any pleasure in an cid hen
Hopping me. Some hens set stand
ing, and when this is the case there
is but a standing chance to get a
good hatch. Some hens set we'll.
Maw's old speckled hen set herself
all away last year except her bill
and toe nails. Only few days ago
we passed by where old Speck set
and hearing fuss we found that
old bill was still clucking and the
toe nails scratching. Some hens
think they are mighty smart and
like smart folks are often mlsts ken.
Maw's old blue hen liked to pecked
our eyes out last year cause she
thought we were going to bother
her chicks when we weren't. Some
people like that part of the chicken
best what got over the fence last,
but we like the legs, breast and all
the rest. Paw says he likes chick
ems purity we'll as rule, except
when he goes to city restherunt
and they charge SOC for a half fried
that his stumake is not strong
enough to digest. But we think it
is his pocket book that rebels. Nav
didn't have any luck with her
chickens last year, but nav didn't
know the reason why and / didn't
know the reason till tother day
when hern paw tell nabor that
he ought to feed his sow on food
rich in bone and muscle forming
properties while she was sucking
her pigs, and now we know the rea-
son nav didn't have any luck was
because she didn't feed the old hens
the right sort of food while they
were sucking their chickens, We
believe another reason nav don't
have any better luck with chickens
is cause she's got no breed in par
ticular, but a conglomerated mix
ture of all breeds. We believe this
is about all we know about poultry
