JULY CARE OF ROSES.

Careful attention should be given the rose garden during July. Those bushes which are kept in constant growth by proximity to lawns or in places that are regularly watered should be pro gressively pruned. cutting back shoots that have bloomed to good new Iaterals below in order that they may be push ed to greater development. A prolific growth of shoots should be reduced. the best of them, of course, being say ed. Roses too often become brushy and unthrifty from neglect of summer treatment. The best rose garden is the one that is not pushed into con stant activity and for this reason it is best that the soil should be allowed to dry somewhat, and, as the leaves show the maturing phases the bushes should be pruned, shortening the shoots and reducing them greatly in number. so that the reawakening activities of au- tumn may find fewer opportunities for the abuses of its impulses-Boston Traveller. ~,swA,

INTERESTING STATISTICS.
What Has Been Accomplished by the
 U. s. Reclamation Service.

The woyk of the government recla- nation bureau during the four briei years of it's existence is very succint- Iy set forth in a statement issued by r. H. Newell. the head of the bureau under date of July g, which he pre- pared for the information of the mem bers and delegates to the approaching session of the National Irrigation con gross. which meets at Boise. Septem- Der to 8. This statement is as fol- lows:
 "The United States reclamation service has just passed it's fourth birthday. and that it is a very vigor- ous infant is shown by a summary of the work accomplished during it's brief existence.
 Work is now under way on 9 pro jects and 13,60O acres of land have been actually irrigated. Up to July 1, 241 miles of main canal. 116 miles of distributing system and 38S miles of ditches bad been constructed, includ- ing dams. headworks, etc.

 More than 521 miles of telephone lines have been installed and are now in operations; 233 miles of wagon road many miles of which were cut in sol i'd rock in almost inaccessible canyous no bridges, and 300 office and other buildings have been constructed.
 "The works above mentioned have called for the excavation of 17,4O3,213 cubic yards of earth and rock, the laying of 134446 cubic yards of con crete. 124.901 square yards of rip raI and paving, 42.947 linear feet of pill ing have been driven.

OPEN PUBLICITY THE BEST

When the maker of a medicine. sold through druggists for family use, takes his patients fully into his confidence by frankly and fearlessly publishing broad cast as well as on it's bottle wrappers a full list of all it's ingredients in pJdin English, this action on his part is the best possible evidence that he is not afraid to have the search light of inyes- tigation turned full upon his formula and that it will bear the fullest scrutiny and the most thorough investigation Dr. Pierce's FavOrite Prescription for the cure of the weaknesses, periodical pains and functional Arrangements of the or gans distinctly feminine, is the only medi- cine put up for sale through druggists for woman'S special use. the maker Of which is not afraid to take his patients into his full confidence by such open and honest publicity.
 glance at the published ingredients on each bottle wrapper, will show that it is made wholly from native, American, medicinal roots, that it contains no poi SOnOuS or haht-fOrming drugs, no mar cotics and no alcOhOl-pure, triple-refined glycerine, of proper strength being used instead of the commonly employed alec. hOl, both for extracting and preserving the active medicinal properties found in the roots of the American forest plants employed. It is the only medicine for wOmen'S peculiar diseases, sold by drug giStS, that does not contain a large per centage of alcohol, which is in the long run so harmful to wOman's delicate, nerv- ous system. Now, glycerine is perfectly harmless, and serves a valuable purpose by possessing intrinsic value all its own, and besides it enhances the curative effect of the other ingredients entering into the "EavOrite Prescription
 Some of the ablest medical writers and teachers endorse these views and praise all the several ingredients of which UFa- vOrite Prescription is composed rec Ommending them for the cure of the very same diseases for which this world. famed medicine is advised.

STORY OF A SULPHUR MINE.
Only One in This Country, It Is Said
 How 1t Is Worked.

"There is only one sulphur mine in the United States" said Huber Oser of New Orleans. "The existence of the mine is known to but a few and was known to hardly any one until recent years.
 The mine is said to contain about $37,000.000 worth of pure sulphur. It is Located near Lake Charles in an almost inaccessible region. It was dis covered by a famous mineralogist, ac- cording to one story, while another has it that it was found by a party of hun ters who had shot bears in the vicinity and found the coats of the bears to be filled with a black, greasy oil. They were curious to know where this came from and tracked bruin one night, go- ing through an almost lmpenetrable marsh and coming out on a high wood ed knoll where the oil pit was dlscov- cred.
 Little was thought of the matter until few years before the civil war, when an attempt was made to sink shaft to get the oil The war broke up the business, but in 1868 another shaft was sunk. this time with 122 huge steel rings, each twelve feet in diameter and five feet wide. They were imported from France and rolled across the country to the oil pit. Thir- weight of them were sunk in one shaft 190 feet deep. but it filled up with oil and 1t was found that nothing could be done with the enterprise A fortune was sunk in the attempt.
 Later the Standard oil heard of the oil and came down to examine the ground. Borings were made and it was found that below the oil was a stratum of pure sulphur rock from 125 to 250 feet deep. Various expedients were tried to mine the stuff but all failed until one of the engineers thought up a scheme to extract the sulphur by melting it and pumping it to the surface. Borings made a mile either way showed the stratum to be about 200 feet thick in every direction and the worth of the mine was esti- mated at nearly S40,0OO. .OOO.
 "A unique and intricate process is used to extract the sulphur. Huge iron pipes are forced into the bed and not water pumped into them at $50 degrees from a battery of 100 boilers. Alter about ten days the melted sul- phur is pumped to the surface and flowed into huge vats, where it is al lowed to cOoL"-Milwaukee Sentinel.

Cocoanuts furnish a good meat and vegetable understudy. Now there is ''ricey coco" for instance. This is a popular dish in warm climates and is so simple to prepare that if it were widely known there isn't a doubt but that it would be promoted to a regular position on the daily menu, at least in summer.
