treatment can clean them out or cure them,

For Heart Trouble

Your heart beats more than ten thousand
times a day. And every heart beat is an
impulse of the inside nerve branch called
the cardiac plexus The heart Is muscle
but II Is the nerve that makes the muscle
do the work. An irregular weak heart is
almost IN every instance, the direct result
normal. DR.. Shoop's Restorative will re-
store the cardiac pexus. just as II restores
the solar plexus and the renal plexus. For
all are equal parts of the great inside nerve
system - the power nerves - the master
nerves.

For Stomach Troubles

The stomach is controlled by a delicate
nerve called the solar plexus. Prize fighters
know that a blow over the stomach-a solar
plexus blow-means sure knockout. For
this nerve is ten times as sensitive as the
pupil of your eye. Yet the solar plexus is
only one of the centers of the great inside
nerve-the power nerve. 1t Is one of the
master nerves The stomach is its slave.
Practically all stomach trouble is nerve

Stockmen in general do not know
what to make of the selection of T. w.
Tomlinson to the secretaryship of the

the men most cordially hated by the
stockmen who had to ship to Chicago

that it was he who made this charge

ing one of the favored ones Of the rail-
roads Tomlinson is credited with be-
ing a representative of the beef trust.
the very organization it was especially
intended to fight when the new Ameri-
can association was formed by the
stockgrowers. His selection as Sec
rotary of the association would seem
to mean that the packers and rail-
roads had enough influence to force
his appointment; while some say he
will direct the attack of the new as
sociation against the railroads solely,
while the beef combine will be left
alone to continue it's work of oppres
sive discrimination.
1t Is remarkable what a little in
vestigation on the part of government
officials has unearthed in connection
with the conduct of the land offices
throughout the country. Two or three
years ago a few transactions in Ore
gOn appeared to SAVIOR of crOOkedneSS,
and officials of the interior department
were set on the scent to find out if
there was anything wrong. They I'M
covered hotbed of corruption among
the land Office people, and quickly a
chain of evidence was woven strong
enough to have several very prominent
gentlemen and a host of lesser lights
indicted by the grand jury. This was
in Oregon, and while the grand jury
was probing the cases the investiga-
ton was carried into Washington, Cali
fornia, Idaho, Montana and Utah, with
the result that more or less fraud was
found to exist in each state. Steps are
being taken by the government to
unearth every shady transaction and
give the guilty ones their deserts
When this has been done new officials
will take charge of the various land
districts and it is not likely they will
attempt to emulate their predecessors
in hurry, if at all.

Interest in The siIo Continues.

Those who say the silo is impracti-
cal in the northwest. where corn can
not be so successfully grown as in the
middle west, do not know what they
are talking about. This paper Is con-
stantly receiving inquiries about the
silo and how to build it. The latest
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1905-06-15

lately moved to this state from the
east. They evidently appreciate the
value of the silo, and want some sug-
gestions on how to build one of small
capacity at as low a cost as possible.
The Ranch hopes to answer the ques-
ton fully in the next issue, but will
give something in this for the benefit
of it's numerous readers. After all
that has been said and written about
silos and how to build them, at almost
every gathering of farmers there is
more or less inquiry about them. This
is especially true in the eastern and
middle west states, but the silo doc
trine is taking hold of the farmers and
dairymen in the far west. Those who
have used a silo invariably maintain
that dairyman who keeps ten or
more COWS cannot afford to be without
a silo. It's advantages, In short, are
summer pasturage in winter, which is
the ideal feed for a COW; large
amount of food from a small acreage;
comparative ease in handling the
bulky, heavy fodder crop without
waste; a steady, even feed on which
you can depend for results right along.
The ups and downs, to use the words
of H. G.. Manchester, an eastern dairy
man, of different kinds of hay and
other roughage are avoided. Small
space stores a vast amount of food,
and nowhere near so large a territory
needs to be framed to handle a given
amount of stock as on the old hay and
corn fodder plan so prevalent east OF
the Rockies before the advent of the
silo. Usually the silo means more
stock, which means more profit and
more fertility returned to the farm
annually.
Mr.. Manchester is a believer in the
silo and gives his method of construc-
ton in the Rural NewYorker. He says
the kind of silo he would build would
depend on circumstances. If he lived
where brick are cheap he would erect
silo of seconds, or swelled brick,
otherwise a wooden silo. He now has
an octagenal silo that he finds very
satisfactory, it being good, durable and
economical. The frame work is 2x6
stuff 10 inches apart at the bottom
and gradually wider towards the top,
until about three feet there. On the
inside, up and down, is one thickness
of matched stuff, nothing else. There
are practically no corners, and the
strain is equal at all parts, and very
little material is required. Any one
handy with tools can do the job. If
desired for looks and durability an
outside covering can be put on, but 1t
is not necessary. Mr.. Manchester adds
that if he wanted round silo he
would go to large lumber yard and
get 2x4 or 2x6 stuff, and if necessary
he would pay little more to get
straight, good lumber of long lengths.
Patent doors are not necessary. Get
four AKA pieces to put up at equal dis
tances apart, and bore holes through
these to hold the rods in place, and
toe-nail each stick several times as
you are building Before building any
kind of silo dig down two feet deep
all around, making ditch two feet
wide where the silo is to rest, and fill
in with small stones or coal ashes, or
sand and cement, so that the structure
will be level and stay level. "Get a
silo, anyway, and get it early" says
Mr.. Manchester. PLANT early and cut
before frosts are expected. You can
not afford to be without the silO."

should go down to Portland and take
in the great fair.
The Washington building at the
Lewis and Clark exposition is great
credit to the state.
Our CosmopOlis correspondent who
asks about the construction of a low
priced silo will find something in the
next issue of The Ranch on the sub
iect, besides a brief article in this
issue.
In the mater of fruit it is conceded
that Yakima county leads all counties
of the state at the Lewis and Clark
fair-and for that matter she is ahead
of all other states, so far as county
exhibits are concerned.
The Lewis and Clark exposition at
Portland opened June list in a blaze
of glory and the attendance since has
been pretty good. Already a large
number of eastern people are turn
ing up on Puget Sound, either On their
way to the fair or coming up from
Portland to look over the country.
With the advance of the season the
number will increase.
When the Washington Irrigation
Company offered to sell out to the
government it's holdings in the Yakima
valley the price named was $25O,OOO.
BY reading the newspaper reports at
the time this offer seemed uncondition-
al and very liberal, but since the first
announcement of the proposition was
made there has come to light the fact
that it contained several little frills
that would make the total cost to the
government at least $750000. The fed
eral authorities are evidently not very
anxious to take UP such proposition,
neither is the company anxious to sell.
In the near future The Ranch will
publish a carefully prepared article on
a system of road building which every
farmer who has team can carry out
without regard to the work being done
by each county. In the western part
Of Washington the roads ar too soft
during the winter and spring, and this
paper believes that anything which
will tend to ameliorate the condition
Of the farmer who has loads to haul
over our roads will be welcomed 1t
is hoped to have illustrations in this
article to show the remarkable sue
cess of the system to be written up.
