AMERICAN TyASTEFULNESS.
We Act as if We Thought Our Resources
Were IneXhaustible

Instances of American wastefulness
abound on every hand, but there is no
better example than is afforded by the
devastation Of the forests. says the Colo
RADIO Springs Gazette. Untold millions
OF board feet Of timber are left every
year by lumbermen to rot on the ground
or IN stumpS, and quantities almost as
vast ere destroyed by forest fires.
II was scarcely a decade ago that the
forests of the United States were be-
heYed 70 be ineXhaustible. but now
everybody who knows anything of the
subject is aware that they are going SO
rapidly that their complete extinction is
n matter of only few years.
This fact is realized by the railroads.

extensive users of timber. and some of
them are taking steps to replace the for
ests already destroyed But from the
planting Of the seed 10 the cutting Of the
matured tree is a long time to wait
from twenty to thirty years-and IL the
meantime where is the country 20 look
for its lumber supply?
The deposits of minerals and metals
are going the same way. In an address
TO the Columbia university graduates ia
science the other day DR.. James Douglas
said that the "mOustrous wastefulncsS"
of the mining methods in vogue in this
country would soon bring about the eX-
haustion OF those resources which we
have fondly regarded as iucyhaustibIc.'

On Hot August Afternoons.

MIR, Rockefeller was speaking about

Crested White Ducks .


Bulletin No. Ga of the Department
Of Agriculture says Of the Crested
White duck:
The Crested White duck is what may
be called an ornamental duck, much the
same as Polish chickens. They are
not bred to any great extent in this
country, and they are very seldom seen
in the showrooms. They have no es-
pecial value to the farmer, as better
and more easily bred birds are to be
found in the Pekin and Aylesbury.
These ducks have medium-slzed
head medium-siZed bill, large, we'll
balanced crest upon the crown of the
head; rather long neck; medium
length back; breast, round and full !;
body, round and of medium length :;
medium length wings that smoothly
fold; hard, stiff tail feathers, with
well-curled feathers in the tail of
drake: and short and stout thighs and
shanks. Their eyes are large and bright
and Of a deep leaden blue or gray color.
The shanks, toes and webs are of Il
light orange color

The weight Of horse is an import,
ant item in estimating his value for
draft purposes, for the finc-boncd horse
with well-developed muscles may DO aS
much work as the heavy boncd one for
a short time, ana is even better for road
purpose, But In blowing. or other
heavy steady drawing, the light hors,
is less useful. Then, In price, the
weight is an Important item. If a good
horse weighs over 1000 pounds he may
possibly sell for rs much rs 81 per
pound, and from $500 to 1000 pounds
for less, the price rapidly declining

\ Splendid Wheat Crop.

The annual crop and business report
OF the Commercial National Bank of
Chicago. covering the Mississippi Val
ley, and a few Of the more important
States of the Pacific coast, says, in
part:
THE wheat crop of 1906 will be
among the largest and best ever pro-
duced. The yield not only will be
great. but the weight and quality will
be far beyond the ordinary. In these
respect, i may be considered nearly
perfect. The period Of uncertainty is
closing rapidly and the crop may now
be called practically out Of danger.
The yield of soft winter wheat Is large
quality the finest and movement free.
InaSmuch as this movement has begun
early and all grains are now nearly or
quite on an export basis with the ten
dency of prices downward), large eX-
port business may be expected"

Profits of MiddfeDAen.

Consumers of fruits and vegetables
in large cities are charged high prices
by the hucksters and grocers. In Chi
cago peaches are selling retail for thir-
ty-five or forty cents for a small basket
containing about twenty TO twenty-five
peaches other fruits and vegetables III
proportion. 1t would be interesting to
farmers to know just how much of this
Is booked as profits. Farmers get no
such prices; In fact they are lucky II
they get one-third of the prices now
prevailing in Chicago. Either some
class of handlers is making eXorbitant
profits or there is an unnecessary eX-
pense attached to the business OF dis
tribution. 1t costs money to handle
produce 1t requires storage, horses
and men, and none of these things are
cheap in the city, but there is no good
reason why the consumer should pay
three hundred per cent profit on what
the farmers sell.-Farm, Field and

Miss KoteMD0noLd

More than likely you speak the same
words yourself, and no doubt YOU feel
far from we'll. The cause may easily
traced to some arrangement OF the fe
male organs which manifests itself in
depression of spirits, reluctance to go
anywhere or do anything. backache,
bearing down pains, hatulency, nerv-
BUSINESS, sleeplessness, or other fe
male weakness.
These symptoms are but warnings
that there is danger ahead, and unless
needed a life of suffering or serious
operation is the inevitable result.
The neverf failing remedy for all these
symptoms is Lydia Z. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound.
Miss Kate Mcdonald Of Woodbridge,
N. e, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"Restored health has meant so much to me
that | cannot help from telling about it for
the sake of other suffering women.
" For long time | suffered untold agony
with female trouble and irregularities,
which made me a physical wreck. and no one
thought | would recover but Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has entirely
cured me. and made Inc well and strong, and
] feel it my duty TO tell other suffering women
what a splendid medicine it is"
For twenty-five years Mrs. Pinkham
daughter-in-law of Lydia f. Pinkham,
has under her direction, and since her
decease, been advising sick women free
of charge. Her advice is free and
always helpful. Address, Lynn, Mass.

FattcninS stock.

Weight is the main object Of the
farmer in fattening stock for market,
and this weight IS easiest obtained by
feeding corn in order to produce fat.
Farmers have long been taught by OK
perience that fat is 4 desirable quality,
and that it adds to the attractiyencss
of 4 carcass on the stall. 1t has been
demonstrated at the experiment sta
tons, however, that the weight can be
secured at less cost. with a greater pro-
portion of lean intcrSperscd with the
fat, by feeding a heterogeneous ration,
which means that, in addition to a lib
eral supply of corn, an animal should
receive a variety of food that is not so
rich in oil. starch and sugar as is corn.
This fact is worthy Of consideration.
