Coffee knitted an Old Soldier.

An old soldier, released from cof-
fee at ~, recovered his health and tells
about it as follows:
Il stuck to coffee for years, although
IL knitted me again and again.
About eight years ago Gas a resul:
of coffee drinking Which congested my
liver), | was taken with a very severe
attack of malarial fever.
Il would apparently recover and
start about my usual work only TO suf-
fer a relapse. After this had been
repeated several times during the year
l was again taken violently i'll.
The Doctor said he had carefully
studied my case, and it was either quit
coffee or die, advising me to take Pos
'tum in its place. had always thought
coffee one of my dearest friends, and
especially when sick, and | was very
much taken back by the Doctors deci-
sion, for | hadn't suspected the coffee
] drank could possibly cause my trou-
BILE.
| thought it over for a few minutes,
and finally told the Doctor l would
make the change. Postum was pro-
cured for me the same day and made
according to directions; well, l liked
it and stuck to it, and since then
have been a new man. The change in
health began in few days and sur
prised me, and now, although I am
seventy-two years of age, l do lots of
hard work, and for the past month
have been teaming, driving sixteen
miles day besides loading and un-
loading the wagon. That's what Pos
tum in the place of coffee has done
for me. l now like the Postum as well
as did coffee.
Il have known people who did not
care for Postum at first, but after hav-
Ing learned to make it properly accord
ing to directions they have come to
like it as well as coffee. / never miss

FINDS EASY ROAD TO RICHES
COAL COMPANIES JUST FORCE
CLERK TO TAKE MONEY.
Donate from Three to Five Cents on
Every Ton Purchased to Agent
of Railroad.

Philadelphia.-Tha he accepted
gifts of stock amounting to $4,000
from coal mining companies during a
period of about three years was ad-
mitted Wednesday by Joesph Boyer,
chief clerk in the office of A. w. Gibbs,
superintendent motive power OF the
Pennsylvania railroad.
Mr.. Boyer purchases the fuel coal
used in the locomotives of the com
pany and the donors of the gifts were
the coal companies which furnished
the fuel to the railroad. Mr.. Boyer
named five companies which allowed
him from three TO five cents on each
ton sold to the railroad company. He
declared that he never asked for the
allowance, but accepted it because he
believed he was following a custom OF
the department. In fact, one of the
coal company officials told him that
he had paid it before and wanted to
continue paying it to the witness.
A. w Gibbs, Mr., Boyer's superior
officer on the stand, said he was un-
aware that such conditions existed in
his department.
Mr.. Boyer said he was at first disin-
clined TO accept the money, but after
thinking it over decided that he was
doing nothing unusual
NJ. Is. Reeves, assistant to Vice Pres
ident Pugh admitted that he had ac-
cepted stock from Col George S. Huff
and David E. Williams. Col. Huff, he
said, purchased some of his holdings
in the Keystone Coal and Coke com
pany, paying him 100000 for it, Mr..
Reeves stated that he has known Col.
Huff since boyhood and declared the
latter knew he was not in a position

GRAIN FOR COWS ON GRASS.
In Opinion Of Prof. Thomas Shaw It
Pays to Use the Grain Ra-
ton In Summer.

Several experiments have been con-
Quoted to test the advantage Of feed
ing grain thus. The conclusions
reached were, that the grain fed when
grass was plentiful and while It was
yet succulent. did not bring any prof
It over and above the cost Of the
grain. In some instances, AZ when
grain was fed In large quantities.. 1t
was said that the increase In mix
and butter fat did not pay for the cost
Of the grain. The conclusion has gone
extensively abroad, therefore, that It
does not pay to feed cows grain or
meal on grass, when the supply OF the
grass Ia abundant.
am not prepared to accept such
view. Prof. Shaw goes on to de-
clare In presenting his Views In the
Orange Judd Farmer. II seems to me
1t is a conclusion reached without con-
sidering every phase Of the question.
II the increased return In milk or but
ter fat pays for the cost Of the grain.
and no more, my contention Is, that
III me end, such feeding is attended
with profit.
II the grain is thus paid for, one
item Of profit is found In the pasture
saved. 1t Is only reasonable to sup
pose that for every. pound Of dry mat
ter consumed in the grain. an equal
amount of dry matter will remain I'M
consumed in the pasture. This would
mean that the carrying power OF a
pasture Is increased to the extent of
the saving effected by feeding grain.
A second item of profit will prob
ably be found In what Is termed the
residual effect of the grain feeding.
This has been well brought out by
Prof. Roberts, of Cornell Six cows
were selected that had been given a
liberal allowance of grain on pasture
the previous season, and six were al
so selected that had been grazed In
the same field but without grain. All
were put upon pasture without grain.
The lot grained the preceding summer
produced 16 per cent. more milk than
the other lot. The heifers in this lot
in milk, also. made better develop
ment than the heifers in the other.
This result is in accord with the view
Of many practical men on this ques-
ton.
A third item of profit would arise
from the fertilizer obtained from the
grain. Where wheat, bran and cot
tonseed meal were fed. the advantage
would be considerable from this
source. Putting these three items to-
gether. they should represent sat
isfactory profit, even when the In
crease In milk production and butter
fat did not more than pay the cost Of
the grain.
