CHILDREN TORTURED.
Girl Had Running Sores from Eczema
Boy Tortured by Poison Oak
Both Cured by Cuticura.

Last year, after having my little
girl treated by a very prominent ply
stefan for an obstinate case of &C.
zema, resorted to the Cuticura Rem
edies. and was so we'll pleased with
the almost instantaneous relief afford
ed that we discarded the physicians
prescription and relied entirely on
the Cuticura Soap. Cuticura Oint-
ment, and Cuicura Pills. When we
commenced with the Cuticura Rene
dies her feet and limbs were covered
with running sores. In about six
weeks we had her completely well,
and there has been no recurrence of
the trouble.
"In July OF this year a little boy
in our family poisoned his hands and
arms with poison oak, and in twenty
four hours his hands and arms were
a mass of torturing sores. We used
only the Cuticura Remedies, washing
his hands and arms with the Cuticura
Soap. and amounting them with the
Cuticura Ointment. and then gave
him the Cuticura Resolvent. In
about three weeks his hands and
arms healed up. So We have lots OF
cause for feeling grateful for the Gu
ticura Remedies. We find that the
Cuticura Remedies are a valuable
household standby. living as We do

My Dear Sir:
When you were at our place in July
| promised to write you what my
north quarter made per acre. You
will remember it was all sown to wheat.
Well | finished threshing yesterday
and received from il an average of
43A bushels per acre-testing 6i1s
pounds per stroked bushel. The wheat
Is the best sample have ever raised
SO uniform and even in size. You
may know 1t was a good sample when
/ tell you that have already sold 1000
bushels of 1t for seed TO my neighbors.
This year has been my best effort in
farming during my life. My wheat
totaled $3.50 bushels and my oats
nearly 5,00G.
II you remember l pointed out to
you half section lying just west of
our house and joining my upper quar-
ter ON the south, which ] said ] should
have in order to make one of the best
farms in western Canada. | am very
glad 10 be able TO tell you that | now
own that half section. My ambition
ldM is TO be able TO market 10000
bushels Of wheat next year. e some
of those good. honest Hoosiers could
have been with me during the last two
weeks and could have seen the golden
grain rushing down the spout into my
wagon ard then could have seen il in
great piles in my granaries, feel sure
they weuld have been forced to
acknowledge there is no better farm
ing country Ia The world than this.
may just say that | have done all my
farming with eight head Of horses and
one hired man except during harvest
and threshing. This year l proved to
nay neighbor that the Roosiers, when
once woke up" can raise grain equal
to the best Minnesota farmers. His
best yield was 421a bushels per acre
SO you see "old Indiana" is holding the
ribbon this year.
