What Sulphur Does
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease.
COSTS NOTICING TO TAx.

The mention of sulphur will recall to
many of us the early days when our moth
ers and grandmothers gave us our daily
dose OF sulphur and molasses every sprlnE
and fall.
II was the universal spring and fall
blood purifier" tonic and cure-all. and.
mind you, this old-fa shioned remedy was
not without merit
The idea was good, but the remedy was
crude, and unpalatable, and a large ouan-
tity had 70 be taken to get any effect.
Rwadays we get all the beneficial effects
Of sulphur in a paiatable, concentrated
form, so that a single grain Is far more
effective than tablespoonful of the crude
sulphur. y
In recent years research and expert
ment have proven that the best sulphur
for medicinal use Is that obtained from
Calcium calcium sulphide) and sold in
drug stores under the name of stuart's
Calcium Waters. They are small choco-
late coated pellets and contain the active
medicinal principle of sulphur in a highly
concentrated, effective form.
Few people are aware of the value Of
this form of sulphur in restoring and
maintaining bodily visor and health; SUI
phur acts directly on the liver and eNore-
blood by the prompt elimination OF waste
material.
Our grandmothers knew this when they
dosed as with sulphur and molasses Sysry

purity of ordinary flowers OF sulphur
were often worst than the disease, ana
cannot compare with the modern con-
centratsd preparations of sulphur of

BROKE WINNING STREAK
Washburn Defeated Aggies by Score of
Seven to Two.

Washburn broke the remarka bic
string of baseball victories won by the
Manhattan Agricultural college this
year, by defeating the Farmer" at
Association park on Tuesday afternoon
by a score of to 2.
The first two innings determined the
result. Furey, the Manhattan pitcher
had a balloon ascension In rounds one
and two, and before he could get his
parachute to work the Sons of Ichabod
had corralled seven safe hits off his
slants, and he had further aided them
by hitting a batsman and walking a
man. All this punched into a con-
glomerate heap gave Washburn seven
runs The Blue did not cross the plate
after the second round. They threat
ened to pile up a few more in the
fourth. but fast playing pulled the Wis
itors out of the hole
The damage began in the first in
ming after Stahl had struck out and
White was hit McCampbell cracked
one safe to left Robb Nipps and
Johnston duplicated the trick in or
der The right fielder let safe one
get away from him, missing the
"hop" and it all added to the general
catastrophe. Four runs were netted.
In the second round Rieg1e opened by
hitting safe to right Stahl walked.
Whites fieIder's choice killed Stahl at
second McCampben and Nipps hit
safely The proceeds were three runs.
For Manhattan, Mallon got on first
in second inning with free transpor-
tation. Miller singled to right. Porter
letting the ball go through his hands
and back to the fence NaIlon came
all the way. In the seventh Haynes.
Furey and Strong singled. Haynes
went home on the last wallOp. At a
number Of other times the Farmers
threatened to do damage. But Riegle
settled down and his support tight
| ened and danger was averted-
After the second inning Furey pulled
himself together and allowed Wash

er of the game. Had his work beer

ROCK ISLAND TERMINALS.

Contracts to BE Awarded Soon for
Those at Kansas City.
Contracts will be awarded soon for
the work of constructing the new Chi
cago, Rock Island & Pacific's Kansas
City freight terminals at Armourdale.
This information was furnished yester-
dag by Dan E. Cain, general manager
of the company. These new terminals,
including the additional tracks to be
laid, roundhouse, shops, coal chutes and
water plants to be built will cost il the
neighborhood of $500, 0O0 Probably the
most expensive feature of the under
taking viii be the filling in Of the land
where the terminals are to be located
It is proposed to fill in this land with
sand from the Missouri river which Is
about a half mile away and it has not
been decided definitely just how this
sand viii be conveyed to where it is
needed. ~ One plan under consideration
provides for pumping it with hydraulic
pressure through pipes directly from
the river. In handling sand in this way
a lot of water is necessarily carried with
1t and 1t would be necessary to arrange
means for draining this water Off.
Another plan provides for the erection
of a large elevated bin near the river
into which the sand can be pumped and
after the water IS drained off cars could
be run under it and loaded without
much LABOR Just which plan will be
decided upon will be determined within
a few days, the contracts viii be award
ed and the work will be pushed vfgor

SUGAR BEErs DON'T PAY.
Lyon County Farmers Experience in
Three Years Trial.


Eli Fowler, who made experiments
for three ars with sugar beets, says
that they cannot be raised successfully
in this county, as the soil is not sandy
enough, and lacks the quality that the
soil in the western part of this state
and Colorado contains. The beets here
grow large, but do not contain the per
cent Of sugar they should and cannot
compete with those raised further
west.
The first two years that Mr. Fowler
planted beets were flood years. and the
beet were covered part of the time
with water. During these two years
they seemed to mature better and con-
tanned about 16 per cent of sugar
which is fairly good amount. The
next year. however. there was about
the usual amount of rainfall in the
county, and the beets did not do so
We'll. They contained as low as s per
cent OF sugar, an amount too small to
be of value. The beets seem to need
sandy soil and plenty of water.-Em-
