are weeds, often classed as noXious
by the farmer; others are simply wild
plants OF the fields and forests of
different parts Of the country. A very
considerable proportion of the crude
drug supply is of foreign origin and is
imported from many parts Of the
world. Of the entire list of drug
plants, those under cultivation in this
country constitute but a small por-
ton. There has been an almost COM
plete neglect of this phase of plant
economics in this country and certain
results have followed: CD Many of
the most valuable of our native drug
plants have been well-nigh eXtermin.
ated by drug collectors; (2) several
kinds of our most noXious weeds, in
stead of being utilized, have remained
to cucumber the land and i~mpoverish
the farmer; 60 millions of dollars
are sent abroad annually to pay for
crude drugs which are grown under
conditions Of soil ana climate in gen
eral similar to those of our own coun.
try.

mand for any one product mentioned
in this paper, the prospective drug
grower is strongly advised to cultivate
small areas of several kinds rather
than to trust himself to the market
conditions of a single crop. BY divid.
ing his risks he is more likely to avoid
the full force of unfavorable seasonal
effects and fluctuations Of the market.
Dairy Records EssentiaI.-The daily
record Of the herd is a matter of the
utmost Importance, says Prof. G. B.
Lane, of the United States department
of agriculture. The highest degree of
success cannot be attained unless
dairymen know the productive capac-
ity Of each individual cow. The rec
ord should include not only the dairy
performance. but a concise history and
description of each animal. The for.
mer requires a daily record Of the
milk yield of every COY and a fat test
of several consecutive milkings, if &C.
curate records are to be secured.
Samples for this test may be mixed
and this composite sample tested, thus
obtaining the average.

known under this name and is the
source of the important principle
known as a%tropine. Since these prod.
ucts are not itemized in the govern
ment reports on imports, there is no
official source from which the magni.
tude of the demand in America can
be accurately determined. Bella.
donna, however, is a standard drug
widely used, and a very considerable
sum is paid annually for the products
of this plant. Experiments with bella

Washington gardens for about four
years

pods of a slender fruited sort grown
especially in Hungary. The smaller
forms of red peppers, known as chill
lies, have received some attention at
Ebenezer, 6. c., and the results with
Japanese chillies, while not as favor
able as those just noted, still give
good ground for hope that, with the
long growing season, cheap labor and
special curing facilities of the tobacco
region of South Carolina, there is the
possibility of a considerably larger
industry in supplying this type of pep.

Good Pastures.-Good pastures
make peaceable cattle. If they must
stay in a poor pasture give them d
good supply Of green fodder.

Marking Milk Cans.-Good plan to
have your initials cut into your milk
cans. Paint rubs off, tags get pulled
OFF; but letters stamped in the tin
stay there.

Telling Sex in Pigeons.-A writer
in the American Pigeon Keeper says!
Though we have handled hundreds Of
birds, we find it impossible to pick
out the sexes except when about three
weeks old; then the female is gener-
ally smaller, and the legs and feet OF
the male bird are larger than those
bf the female.

Il Next Years Strawberries.-The way
to insure a crop of strawberries next
year is to begin right now. Cultivate
the ground, kill the weeds and cut off
the runners. Every time you cut off
a runner you force the plant to form
a fruit bud which will give berries
next year if you manure this fall and
cultivate well next spring till blossom
ing time. That's my way.

The Lauter
Playerpiano

rs necessity OF having a piano is
recognized BY all. This is one Of the
few subjects upon which all are agreed
the desirability Of having music III
the home. The educational and up
lifting effect upon young people is ac-
knowledged; the tTanquilizing and
recreating influence on grown folks is
questioned BY no one.
All wish to be able to play the
piano, but only limited number of
persons can play satisfactorily. A
great many people who are passionate
" fond of music are unable to play
for themselves, and are dependent for
music upon others; rather should we
say that until recently this has been
the case, for it need be so no longer.
The wonderful demand for the
Lauter Playerpiano from people who
are musically intelligent is the best
evidence that a long-felt want has been
supplied. With this instrument the
music-loVer who cannot play for him
self has the power TO play well, to play
with expression and feeling, to inter-
pret as he believes they should be
interpreted all the compositions of the
masters, all classes of music.
The Lauter Playerpiano is means
OF musical expression for everybody.
With the aid of music-roll and treadles
any one can play any kind Of music,
absolutely controlling tempo, accent
and expression by small levers placed
in front of the keyboard. Thus the
music is artistic and satisfying, for it
is as much product of individuality
as in hand-playing
Not only is this wonderful instru-
ment piano for playing without ma I
nipulation of the keyboard by the per
former, but it can also be played BY
hand in the usual way. 1t is really
TWO PIANOS IN ONE. A mo-
ments consideration will be enough
to indicate to you how valuable an
acquisition this Lauter Playerpiano
must be.
Business men, physicians, lawyers,
pedagogs and clergymen have told us
that through having this remarkable
instrument in the home life has be-
come Cheerier and better thing, that
new and satisfying interest in music
has arisen. Ladies who are good mu-
sicians themselves have declared that
the Lauter Playerpiano opens up a new
field, for with it the most difficult
music is at command without the
drudgery Of practice.
We invite you to come here and
investigate the Lauter Playerpiano.
You may never have played before,
and never expected to, but you will
be able to play this piano after few
minutes instruction.
We can take your present piano
in part payment.
