Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they
cannot reach the diseased por-
ton of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness, and
that is by constitutional RENE
dies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian tube.
When this tube is infamed you
have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is en-
tlrely closed, deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred
Dollars for any case of deafness
(caused by catarrh) that cannot
be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.

CONTROL OF GRAZING LANDS.

In consequence of the successful op-
Grafton of the grazing policy of the
government as applied to the national
forest reserves those having supervi-
sion of the open grazing lands, which
outside of the forest reserves amount
to about 4O0,O0O,000 acres, IRE contem-
plating the application of the same
general policy of regulation and over
sight to this enormous area. At pres
ent grazing on these lands is wholly
unrestrained by law. Commercial in
terests have competed for it's use, with
the result that millions of acres have
been overgraZed and practically ruined
In his last message to congress Presi-
dent Roosevelt said: 1T is probable
that the present grazing value of the
open public range is scarcely more than
half what it once was or might easily
be again under careful supervision.
The wide open policy which has pre-
vailed has resulted in few of the
more powerful stOckmen Selling con-
troll of the more valuable portions OF
the public grazing land, including
streams, springs and other sources Of
water supply, with the result that great
injustice has been done to other citi-
zens who under the law are entitled
to just as good chance. Not only
this, but there have been numerous in
stances of fraudulent entry, illegal
fencing, those responsible for the Of
Tense often going SO far as to defend
their unjust claims by force Of arms.
An extension of the general forest re-
serve policy to the open grazing lands,
as is contemplated, will tend to rem
edy the evils mentioned and will pro-
vide q careful examination and classi-
fication of the lands with a view to
giving each settler land enough to sup
port his family and no more" The pas
sage of law giving the control con-
templated promises definite and prac-
teal results.

DAMAGE FROM TURNIP ROT.


A reader of these notes living at OF
tumwa, Ia, writes asking information
relative to blight or disease that has
attacked his turnip crop for the past
two years. Our correspondent states
that he sowed his turnip seeds early in
August in rows two feet apart and
thins with hoe to six inches apart in
the row. He keeps them free from
weeds and says they seem to do nicely
until about the size Of teacup, when
the tops turn yellow and the whole tur-
nip rots in a short time. While our
friends letter gives practically no data
relative to conditions Of soil or location,
the trouble would not seem to be found
in them. A reference of the query to
the plant specialists at the state expert
ment station ELECTS reply which states
that the disease which has attacked the
turnips is due to species of bacteria
and Is the same which sometimes at
tacks rutabagas and cabbages. The
only suggestion made in the way of
preventing the trouble is to sow fresh
seeds grown in another locality upon
clean soil not previously used for tur-
nip culture, and keep them away from
cabbages as far as possible. Care is
urged in the matter Of securing clean
turnip seed. as the disease has been
known to be conveyed through the
spores of the bacteria being attached
to the seed Of the turnip. IL our cor
respondent cannot secure new piece
Of land handily il would be well for
him to raise some other crop on the
plot which he has hitherto had in tur-
nina
