Fat YEAR FOR FARMERS.
Earnings One Thousand Millions
Greater Than Last Season.

The American farmers earnings are slooo.o000oo
greater this year than last. according to premi-
nary report on crops to appear in the next issue OF
..The American Agriculturist." This will be en-
tirely due to increased prices of farm products
as the production in general will be fully 10 per
cent less in quantity than in 1895. The report says
in part:
The farmer was in healthy position as
he is to-day-fnancially socially. politically men
taliy and spiritually. The increase in the value OF
his real estate has been prodgious. He owes less
money than before He has greater assets
than ever Again. the farmers wants are greater
He is in the market for more and better breeding
stock farm implements household goods and otner
merchandise. He recognizes the extra profit that
accrues from the OF better equipment and pet
ter methods in his business and in his home
The wheat crop this year will approximate 62o.-
900 coo bushels 80 600 900 bushels less than last year
Corn promises to be within per cent as mucn as
last year. and with only two or three exceptions
the biggest yield in history. The yield OF oats
will be about II per cent less than last year but
there will be nearly the usual quantity OF rye. bar

A notice recently issued by the Panama Railroad

The lady is connoisseur Of an

Strenuous Actions Mildly Explained
by the Minister.

Many stories are told OF the 60
centric doings and sayings Of an
old clergyman who lived in Maine
some years ago. At one time there
had been fight among some men,
one OF whom was seriously hurt. A
trial took place, and the old minister
who had seen the ARRAY was SUM
moned as witness.
What was Salson doing7" was
the first question.
"Oh, he was slashing around"
well, sir. just what do you mean
by that?"
Why. he was knocking about him
here and there"
Nov. sir, kindly tell US plain
IL what Salson did to this man."
"Why, he-he enticed him." said
the old minister slowly. HE enticed
him with a crowbar. He used the
crowbar to persuade the man--to en-
tice him; and by a series Of pokes
and blows he succeeded In doing it."

scALY ERUPTION ON BODY.
Doctors and Remedies FrultIesS-Suh
fered 10 Years - Completely
Cured by Cuticura.

Small sores appeared on each OF
my lower limbs and shortly afterwards
they became so sore that ! could
scarcely walk. The sores began to
heal, but small scaly eruptions ap-
peared. The itching was SO severe
that would scratch the sores until the
blood began to flow. After I suffered
thus about ten years made a renewed
effort to effect a cure. The eruptions
by this time had appeared on every
part of my body except my face and
hands. The best doctor in my native
county and many remedies gave no
relief. All this was fruitless. Finally
my hair began to fall out and / was
rapidly becoming bald. A few months
after, having used almost everything
else. I thought ! would try Cuticura
Ointment and Cuticura Soap. After
using three boxes was completely
cured, and my hair was restored, after
fourteen years Of suffering and an ex-
penditure of at least $50 or $50 in vain
ly endeayoring to find cure. B.
