they are very helpful toward right liv-
ing. I thought would steal a moment
this afternoon and have consultation
with you. First, have you any litera-
ture that you can send me, or do you
publish any medical periodical and
what is the price? Now can you tell
me'what is the matter and what can I
do for a sore finger at the end and
around the nail; my forefnger was in
this condition exactly for three years.
and after great suffering around the old
nail new one grew out and the finger
was well, but the one next to it, the
second finger of the left hand, COM
menced to be sore in the same way and
how at this writing 1t is very painful,
and has been for about two years, and l
should be willing to give almost any
thing to be relieved. It is something
like what they term "runabout," al
though I never had one. It is painful at
the bone on one side only and the nail
is getting rough looking and ugly, then
at times it gets much better and then
returns.
Let me hear from you, please, sir, if
there is remedy for it. Most respec-
fully, Mrs. H. X.
In regard to your finger. suppose
that the cause originally was a bruise
on the bone; it is what is sometimes
called whitlow or paronychia. Some
times cure of these conditions can be
effected by dipping the member in al

heroic treatment, however, and some
times causes a great deal of pain with

BARRIERS ITCH.

One of the diseases most dreaded by
men who patronize barber shops is
BARRIERS itch. It seems to be almost
epidemic at the present time and is not
confined to a single locality. The very
best and cleanest barber shops are not
exempt, and as matter of fact, the dis
ease may be, and frequently is, con-
tracted from horses and COWS, so the
barber is not always to blame.
= The disease is caused by vegetable
parasite or fungus which attacks the
hairs and hair follicles of the bearded
region and when not properly treated
will persist almost Indefinitely. would
like to give detailed description of the
condition so that it may readily be rec
ognized, but will not at this time, but
direct the attention to the preyen-
ton and cure Of the difficulty.
In the first place, those who are shaved
in barber shop should not allow the
scalding cloths to be placed upon the
face after shaving. If the skin is ex-
amined under powerful. magnifying
glass, after the shave, it will be found
that in many cases the outer or scarf
skin has been cut away and the surface
is raw and almost bleeding The appli-
cation of moist heat relaxes the skin and
opens the pores and if by any chance
any OF the fungus or parasites should
then escape from the towel or the bar
ber's finger-nails, the comb or else
where splendid resting is readily
found, and if the barber then applies an
oily liquid or paste to soothe the irri-
tated skin, the best culture ground that
could possibly be prepared is thus made
ready and the parasite proceeds to bur-
row deeply and multiply.
After light shave, use cold witch
hazel extract or bay rum and glycerine,
but not hot cloths. This is prevention in
one way.
For q cure apply externally the fol-
lowing formula:
Fluid extract cinnamon. Northumberland o.
Fluid extrac witchhazel. o.
Glacial acettc acid .......................lo OF.
Mix well together and apply lightly
morning and night. At the same time
take internally the following combina-
ton:
Mag phos Observation-Disclosures. 6x
Calc. sulph. OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. OK
S1licea ......................... .12x
Dose four to six tablets every two to
four hours, and, as improvement is not
ed, take three times per day; then once
daily until the cure is complete. This
system Of treatment is safe and simple
and will prove much more effective
than the usual precipitated sulphur,
sodium hyposulphite, mercuric chlor-
ide,, or zinc oxide and ammoniated
mercury ointment No bad after effects
will be noted and the external use of the
LIQUID will prevent infection Of others

Freight Rates Cut.

The following changes in general
freight rates have been made by vir-
tue of resolution passed by the
Western Classification association:
Mixed carloads of structural mate
rails will henceforth take the same
classification as straight carload lots.
Heretofore structural material, includ-
ing steel and iron, took fifth class
rates in straight carload lots and
fourth class in less than carload lots.
The new classification will reduce the
cost of transporting building material
and will especially benefit the small
contractors.
Another change of Importance to
the farmers of Minnesota is the ruling
which permits the mixing of farm i'm
plements and gasoline engines. This
will secure better service for those
who desire such motive power on their
farms.

S The method which We will undertake
to describe was explained by Lysan-
der Woodward who has had expert
ence in its use and can vouch for it's
effectiveness. His method was to Sc
cure a rope about two hundred feet
long, each end to be taken by a man
on horseback and the rope dragged
across the field to be treated. It will
be readily seen that the rope will
knock most Of the water off the stocks
OF grain and of course the rope should
be heavy enough to have this effect.
Mr.. Woodward tells us that a quarter
section of land may be treated by two
men, in this manner in about two
hours. It is certainly worth trying.

Couldn't Remember Her Name.

The clerk of court has received a
letter from an attorney of Little Falls
asking that the records be searched
for information concerning the mar
rage of one of his clients. It APP
pears from the communication that
this client had forgotten the name of
the woman he married at the Method
ist church in Princeton on June Ii,
1900. He felt certain, however, that
he had married someone The clerk
OF court, by the records, was enabled
to substantiate this belief and furn-
lshed him with the full name of the
woman he took unto himself as wife.
It is not impossible that he was mar
ried while in a dream.

May Grant Reduced Rates.

There still remains a possibility
that the railroads will grant reduced
rates to the State fair. A committee
of St. Paul business men has been an
pointed to investigate passenger rates
for this event. Railroads have
heretofore made a one-way rate, but
base their refusal this year on the
probability that tickets will fall into
the hands of scalpers. If this condi-
ton should be disposed of the roads
would grant the rates.
The refusal to make rates appears
to be part of the general campaign in
the country, beginning with the stand
taken regarding St. Louis fair rates.
Strict laws were passed there and
courts took prompt action against
scalpers. This resulted in the grant
ing of generous rates by the roads.
Similar methods were taken at Port
land, Ore, and other points, and it is
probable that more stringent measures
will be taken in the twin cities.

a result of his teaching, that better
arithmetic teaching will characterize
the work of our rural schools the
coming year than ever before.
Attorney Mcmillan gave very able
and helpful address to the teachers on
"School Law" last Monday. He gave
us many new ideas and explained
them in a clear and comprehensive
manner.
Prof. Robertson of the agricultural
school arrived yesterday and will de-
vote two periods day to the teach
ing OF the rudiments of scientific agri-
culture. We trust our young ladies
will profit thereby in more ways than
one.
Wednesday afternoon the summer
school had the pleasure of listening
to our distinguished and esteemed
townsman, Hon. r. G. Dunn. who. in
forty-minute talk gave a very
graphic explanation of the sources of
our public school fund. No man in
the State is better conversant with the
States resources and revenues, etc.,
than Mr.. Dunn. He showed how lib
orally Minnesota had provided for
the education of it's sons and daugh-
tiers, how carefully the school fund
was guarded and the wisdom of such
policy. He entered into the details
showing the various sources of school
revenues, stating that no other state
of the Union could equal Minnesota's
permanent school fund which at this
time amounted to, $4,000, 1000 and
would eventually reach at least $780,
100000. Mr.. Dunn's remarks bore
conclusive evidence that as State
auditor he was the able and careful
guardian of the States interests that
we had always considered him to be.

$40 worth of manure on the four acres,
which should be deducted from the
rent charges.
Plant foods vary in composition,
and the most fertile farm may lack in
some particular element of fertility.
Manure that does not contain all the
essential elements that tend to re-
cuperate the soil is not in itself COM
plete. It will of course, enrich the
soil, but as the soil does not receive
from the manure all that it yielded in
the shape of food, no figures are
necessary to demonstrate that in the
course of time the sale of milk will ex-
haust the soil of plant foods (mostly
of nitrogen), including potash, phos-
pilates and other mineral matter.

a~ We learn upon good authority that
the game laws are being violated
upon the prairies hereabouts with
impunity-that young chickens are
being slaughtered in considerable
number. Inasmuch as no attempt is
ever made by game wardens in this
part OF the country to run down such
depredators or in any way enforce the
law it would be well for the resident
sportsmen to organize for the purpose
OF taking the matter into their own
hands and bringing these poachers
to justice. Otherwise they will find
that birds in the fall will be mighty
few and far between.

CAUGHT IN THE ACT.
In an Attempted Burglary at N1ilaca Gee
Brumbright Nabs Depredator

In an Attempted Burglary at h1ilaca Geo.
Brumbright Nabs Depredator.
At midnight on Sunday, in the vii
lage of Milaca, George Brumbright,
a boarder at Crosby's- hotel, thought
he distinguished a crash as if of
breaking glass, and, proceeding to-
wards the place from which such sound
emanated and peering into the front
window of LIE Nays saloon, he saw
at the back end Of the room man at
tempting to unfasten the shutters.
Swiftly but softly Brumbright stole
around to the rear, and, drawing a
revolver with which he had provided
himself, pointed it at the burglars
head with the terse but significant
request: "Come with me!' And the
burglar went along, without any fur.
Their persuasion, to McLaren's res.
taurant, from which place the mar.
shall was notified by phone.
An inspection of the premises
showed that the window glass had
been shattered but the depredator had
not succeeded in opening the shutters
within.
The prisoner was on Monday
brought before Justice Norcross,
pleaded not guilty and was held to
await the action of the grand jury.
On Tuesday Sheriff Shockley took
the culprit to Minneapolis and landed
him in the Hennepin county jail. He
gave the name of Sam Brigance with
no particular place of residence.

Robbing the Farm.

Dairying rapidly exhausts the fer
tility of the farm because the food
that is made into milk is sold in the
cans, We may get plenty of manure.
but unless it contains the right quality
the soil quickly runs down and be-
comes poor. A dairy farm cannot be
kept to the highest degree of fertility
when milk is being constantly sold
and nothing brought back, no matter
how large may be the manure heap,
or how carefully it may be saved. It
is rule in nature that something can
not be produced from nothing, and no
vacuums are allowed. Any deficiency
in a certain quarter either changes
the character of the soil or makes it
poorer. But although the above
allusion to dairying has been made,
it is the safest and best method of
farming for restoring and retaining
fertility if conducted in the right man
ner and with judgment. Dairying is
more remunerative than a majority of
other pursuits usually conducted. The
expenses and receipts from animals
are unknown to some farmers. It is
estimated that it requires four acres
to keep a COW, and the value of land
as rent should be charged against her
as so much expense, which she must
pay before her milk will give a profit.
On the other side a COW will leave
