COFFEE IMPORTERS
Publish a Book About Coffee.

There has been much discussion as
20 coffee and Postum lately, so much
in fact, that some of the coffee i'm
porters and roasters have taken to
type to promote the sale Of their
wares and check if possible the rapid
growth of the use of Postum Food
Coffee
In the coffee importers book
chapter is headed Coffee as a Medi-
cine and advocates it's use as such.
Here is an admission of the truth,
most important to all interested.
Every physician knows, and every
thoughtful person should know, that
habitual use of any medicine" of the
drug-stimulant type Of coffee or
whisky quickly causes irritation of
the tissues and organs stimulated and
finally sets up disease in the great
majority of cases if persisted in. It
may show in any one of the many or
gans of the body and in the great ma
1ority of cases can be directly traced
TO coffee in most unmistakable way
by leaving off the active irritant-
cofee-and using Postum Food
Coffee for a matter of 10 days. II
the result is relief from nervous trou-
pie dyspepsia, bowel complaint,
neart failure, weak eyes, or any other
malady set up by a poisoned nervous
system, you have your answer with
the accuracy Of demonstration in
mathematics.

Growing North and Vest


The chief center of poultry growing
upon the farms and by small establish
ments devoted exclusively to the pro
ducing of eggs and poultry for market,
is located in that portion of the coun-
try now called the North and West, in
which we must include Missouri, Kan
saS and the great Northwest.
1t is not usually known that Mis-
souri,, Iowa and Kansas are the great
est producers of poultry of all kinds,
including waterfowl, and that Michi-
gan and Wisconsin are becoming the
greatest of all goose-producing sections
of the country.
Upon the vast wheat fields of the
Northwest are grown thousands upon
thousands of young fowls that are
hatched and cared for with reference
to having them of the proper size for
ranging over the wheat fields as soon
as the harvest is in, and are later
gathered up by the pur hasers of the
great poultry-killing establishments of
Kansas City and other centers. These
young fowls are taken away and
shipped to the killing rlaces prior to
the beginning of the cold rigid weather
of the North, only leaving for the care
of the farmers during the winter
months a sufficient number to produce
eggs for the next summers crop.
Wisconsin and Michigan produce
large numbers of geese, grown for
their feathers, and then shipped away
to the Eastern States, where they are
fattened and sold to the City markets.
Missouri and Kansas have become
great egg producing centers of the West.
1t is claimed that more egis and
more dressed poultry are shipped from
some of the gathering stations of Mis-
souri, than from any otter locality in
this country. Iowa has for many
years ranked among the foremost
states in the producing of both eggs
and market poultry of kinds.

as can be learned at present, the III
crease in poultry culture through thest
states has almost doubled IN the las'
six years.
The West is more largely interested
in the Plymouth Rock and Wyandottt
breeds than in any other. The East
ern States seem to be more given &c
the cultivation of Leghorns than are
any of the Western localities. The
eggs having the brown shells seem
best suited to the West. The brown
shelled eggs stand shipment h~tter,
from the fact that the shells are heav-
Ter and stronger than those laid by
the Mediterranean breeds.
The Rrahma and Langshan fowls
were formerly most popular in thes"
sections. The Plymouth Rocks ana the
Wyandottes being smooth, that Is
unfeathered, on the shanks, move
about and forage for their sus-
.tenance much better than the feathered
varieties. The original Asiatics-the
Brahams and the Langshans-produee
the eggs having the darkest and
heaviest shells. The Plymouth Rocks
and Wyandottes having a considerable
per cent. of Asiatic blood in their
veins, produce a strong shelled egg,
stronger than the white shells, asSur-
ing safer carriage a long distance to
market. This is the real reason why
so Many of the eggs that are shipped
in from Western parts have the
kind of shells. There is no
difference whatever in the quality of
the egg themselves, no matter what

pruning and c%ultiyating that q of an
acre in Florida kept me hustling as ]
had never hustled before-but as a
garden proposition where you are rails
ing from fifty to one hundred plants it
has proven itself an ideal method of
culture. The directions are these,
simple in the extreme, but requiring
rather close attention. as once well
started the tomato is a rapid grower.
BY the time the plant forms its first
blossoms, have a slim stake six feet in
length-in Florida we used pine sticks
about II inch Square-With a crow
bar, or Il heavy mallet stake your to-
mato firmly. Take IN ordinary piece
of grocers' soft cotton Irvine and tie
the stem close to the stake. We eX-
perimented with tape and heavy cord,
but found that the ordinary, five-cent
a ball, white Irvine sutticed, and that
there was no danger of injuring the
stem of the plant. Then go through
the rows and pull off every sucker
leaving of course the blossom stems.
In other words simply train the tomato
vine to a single stem, and as need be
tie it up close to the stake. During the
season of growth three or four ties will
suffice. We tried using n sharp knife
to cut off the suckers in the belief that
yanking them off by the fingers would
injure the main stem, but event
ually came back to the Crystal Springs
method, where everything is done by
the fingers,

There will be strong temptation,
should the vines get three, four or
five days start, and n of the suckers
or branches becomes almost as big as
the main stem, to let it grow, in the
belief that it will iniure the vine to

ruthlessly remedied. Once well started
