The Boy and Mother Nature.
Vivian Burnett.)

The best nurse for a boy is Mother
Earth, either dry or wet The closer
to her he sticks, the better man he is
likely to be in the end-the truer,
the more Straightforward, the health
Ter.
The separation from the soil which
the trend of modern civilization seems
to be making absolute especially in
the case of the city boy, and more and
more so in the case of the country boy,
since he is being led to look toward
the city and copy it's ways,-this trend
cannot be but harmful for the young
sters, and there is need for much in
sistence and demonstration on this
point.
The boy and mother nature,-it can
not be too often reiterated-are
friends, and all he wants is an oppor-
tunity to associate with her. Give him
a chance. let him go camping, live in
the country, if all the year around, so
much the better, certainly in the sum-
mer Let him get to know the world,
animals, birds, trees,-by growing
up with it, and do not cramp his phys
ical. mental and moral stature by sub
shutting for the living green earth
and it's friendly creatures, dirty as
phalt streets and the dingy brick walls.
The boy should have the open world
as birthright, and if our present con-
ditions of society rather restrict this
inheritance, it should be the aim OF
those into whose hands the manage
ment of his affairs are temporarily
placed, to see that he gets as much OF
it as possible.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-
dition of the mucus lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to the normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
Catarrh which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucus surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness caused by catarrah
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

Land Without Water Is Useless.

An important matter in connection
with the agricultural development OF
the northwest is the question of water
on the farm. In many sections this
question is forever solved by the pres
ence of an abundance of this essential,
but in some sections nature has not
lavished her favOrs, and in these parts
the question of water supply suffi-
cient and perpetual can only be solved
by irrigation.
In this respect the writer wishes to
call the attention of all who receive
their supply of water through irriga-
ton to the Davis horse power pump
ing machine, for years success and
we'll known in California, but only re-
Gently being introduced in the north
west 1t is claimed by users of the
Davis machine that it is the most
practical, economical and the cheapest
on the market; is simple in construc-
ton and lifts three times the water of
any other machine with the same
amount of power, and is never out of
order The cut on page shows
Davis pump lifting $50 gallons per
minute 20 feet with four horses and
irrigating 80 acres of alfalfa.
D. R. Brownell & Son, SOB Gold
smith street, Portland, Oregon, are
sole agents on the coast for this pump
and are so confident of their goods
that they offer to install a pump with
out expense and prove their claims be-
fore receiving payment.
The cut on page 7 shows another
Davis pump lifting 1860 gallons min
ute, irrigating 200 acres of alfalfa. D.
r. Brownell & Son solicit inquiries on
these pumps and will be glad to send
free literature to all interested parties.
Their advertisement is in this issue,
and we suggest that you write them
for full information.

Sheen on Public Lands.

Governor Gooding, of Idaho, is
awake to the damage being done in
that state, as elsewhere, by the I'M
regulated grazing of sheep on the pub
lie lands, especially by the turning OF
flocks on the ranges in the spring be-
fore the grass is in condition for
grazing. He favors governmental SUI
pervision Better far make such use
of the land, by securing it's occupancy
by small farmers, as shall render that
style of sheep-raising impossible, he
says. An acre of irrigated land will
raise more fattening grass for sheep
than many acres of range; and null
titude of small farmers, each caring
for a small flock would soon bring
Idaho's wool crop to a figure far be-
yond the present. Then, too, we
should have no more pitiful stories OF
sheep killed by thousands through ex-
posture on the ranges.

The Farmers to Blame.

cit is the farmers own fault ii, in
these days of scientific discovery, he
does not reap all the returns he should
from his land, be it located wherever
or however it may in or without the
rain-belt, so long as there is small
stream with slight fall near by
Such was the remark the other day of
Robert Washburn, man OF wide ex-
perience in agriculture, horticulture
and individual irrigation enterprises
throughout the great Pacific north
west, being at present an extensive
owner and operator of Rogue River
lands in Oregon. Devastation to crops
as a result of droughts and barren
ness of land from lack of water are
two evils that can easily be over
come" continued Mr.. Washburn, eff
the flow of a little stream is only
utilized by anyone of the modern me-
chanical devices now being made for
lust such work and are already ac-
complishing for many the desired re-
suits. The simplest and most mex
pensive of these devices for elevating
the water of a stream to higher level
is, perhaps, the hydraulic ram. 1t is
self pumping engine that is rapidly
fulfilling the need of the farmer and
small irrigationist for sure scheme
of getting out of their land all those
bountiful returns yielded where water
is plentiful"

Take bad day when it is impos'

Take a bad day when it is impos-
sible to do much work outside and
oil up the harness. Wash thoroughly
first with a good soapy lather, then
oil with some good leather oil mixed
with lamp black. If there is large
amount of harness to go over use
tub containing hot oil, and dip the
harness therein. Oiling the harness
will be a good job to have out OF the
way before the heavy work is on.

More Flowers for the Home.

Flowers have been called the ''for-
get-me-nots of the angels" They are
found wreathed around the cradle, the
altar, and the tomb By just little
planning, much beauty in the home
may be had. Through the growing of
flowers in the home garden the chill
dren will become more interested in
good farming, take greater interest
in keeping things tidy in and around
the buildings.
The sick-room is made more cheer
full by being supplied with cut flowers.
A good way to keep flowers fresh a
long time is to take them out of the
vases at night, cut off small piece OF
the stem in a slanting direction and
put them in larger dish with plenty
of water. Another plan is to lay them
in a box, sprinkle with water, cover
lightly and put in cool place over
night.
The arrangement of flowers in the
vases affords an opportunity for study
in arrangement, symmetry, harmony,
etc., that makes a most interesting
study. The more one works with flow
ers the more will one be able to ap-
preciate the better things of life.

The welcome news has been flashed
from the national capital that the ag-
ricultural appropriation bill reported
from the house has the item of $780,
900 for free seeds stricken out. The
bill is to be passed during the present
week, and if the friends of the bill as
it stands now are wise they will allow
no dilly-dallying on the part of those
members who want the government to
continue throwing away 100000 an
nually for the benefit of members who
would rather jolly their agricultural
constituents with five or ten cents
worth of old seeds than go before
them on their own merits and COM
mand attention. Some of the mem
bers will want to put back the item
of seeds, but we hope they won't sue
coed.
