BREED.NGUP BARLEY
! Trea tise by Prof. r. A. Moore,
University of Wisconsin,.

We at the Wisconsin experiment
station have been at work for nine
wears breeding up barley. We are
trying to get two or three good vari-
cites that can take the place of the 60
or 20 varieties that are now being
grown in the state. We want to get
variety or few varieties that will
give much larger yields than the
average of those now being grown,
and believe that we have already Sc
cured these varieties.
We are carrying on this work III
co-operation with the United States
department of agriculture. 1t began
in Wisconsin, but soon got beyond
orr borders and has now been taken
up by the United States government
One of the things that we are working
on is to get a barley that will be
rust proof. The loss from rust in
the United States is very large. In
Wisconsin last year rust destroyed
seven per cent of our barley, and this
means a loss to the farmers of the
state of about a quarter of million
of dollars. We are also trying vari
GUS things to destroy the rust on the
heads of barley. We used the for
maldehyde treatment for some years
but did not find it entirely satisfac
tory, though it is very valuable. Il
kills the covered smut but not the
loose smut. But we have now found

ANOTHER
PARASITEVICTIM

One of the most stubborn cases that
the medical profession has met with
for some time is that of Mr.. Nick En-
merck of 1874 Louis Avenue, Mill
waukee, Wis. MIR. Emmerick has
been suffering from what doctors said
was acute stomach trouble, but treat
ment of the most skilled physicians
for that malady had no effect.
In a recent letter regarding his
strange case he said: II was always
tired, my stomach blOated and the
slightest exertion made me sick, weak
and dizzy. A good appetite and a
good nights sleep we're unknown to
me. When / awoke in the mornings

coated tongue Twas quite discouraged
but when l heard of the wonderful
benefits that were being derived in
similar cases from MIR. Cooper's New
Discovery medicine, ! decided to try
it,
"a horrible tape worm, 10 feet long,
that had been sapping my life away,
passed from my system alive and
squirming after l had taken three
doses Of this medicine"
Nov l have splendid appetite,
every trace of stomach trouble has
disappeared, my digestion is good, l

Cooper's New Discovery, the remedy
| that so quickly cured Mrs Emmerick,
and which is curing stomach and kid
ney trouble, rhematism and blood
diseases all over the country, sells for
one dollar per bottle. Cooper's Quick

SMALL POX

Word has been received here and it comes from we'll authenticated sourc- es, that there is an epidemic of small pox in the Mass river district, and that the natives are fleeing from it, with the chance of scattering the con- tagion in all directions. Twenty-eight cases are reported on Mass river, nine cases at Metlakahtla and three at Port Simpson. A number of canoes with persons from the infected district ar rived at Metlakahtla last night, and were sent away by MT. Duncan's or ders as soon as he learned from whence they had come. These same canoes and people arrived in the native vil- lage here today, where they are now supposed to be.
 The report may be more or less ex- aggerated, but the matter is of such serious import as to demand the im- mediate and earnest attention of the

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is inham-
ed you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.

WILL FIGHTA REDUCTION
Two Cent Passenger Fare Is Not Wanted
by Railroads.


Since the virtual elimination of
the so-called pass evil through
Congressional legislation, con-
spicuous activity in the way of
further railroad regulation seems
to be centering in a general reduc-
ton of passenger fares to the 2-cent
a mile scale. It is the belief in
local railroad circles that the rail-
road warfare expected during cur
rent sessions of State Legislatures
throughout the Union will resolve
itself into a big fight on such a
reduction.
Travelling railroad men who make
San Antonio among their chief
sojourning points talk freely of the
impressions formed in this regard.
One of them is authority for the
statement that the Western roads
in order to 'subvert contemplated
plans for legislation providing for
a fat 2-cent fare, will submit to
the Legislatures of Ohio. Wisconsin
and Minnesota and to either the
Legislature or the State Railroad
and Warehouse Commission of
Illinois, a proposition looking to
the voluntary adoption by the
roads of a 1-2 cent passenger
rate.
1t is thought that similar action,
if any, will be taken before Legisla-
lures of other States of the West,
now in session, including that of
Texas.
The railroads are not manifest
ing a spirit of antagonism toward
proposed legislation putting the
pass under the ban, but
they universally disapprove of
blanket reduction in passenger
RAGS, and from all indications, will
fight unfalteringIy any such en-
deavor on the part of the Legisla-
Antonio Express.

The word "afray" naturally i'm

negro soldiers were nothing more

even the partial excuse of drunken

FAVOR DOG TAX BILL
MASTIN MEASURE ENDORSED BY
 SENATE COMMITTEE.
Amendments Relating to Execution of the Law are Suggested, But Tax ProvlsiOn ts Left
 Intact.

The Mastin dog tax bill yesterday received a favorable report from the Finance and Taxation Committee of the Senate. The bill was amended in points affecting the execution of the law, but the tax on dogs still remains.
 Although amended by the committee, the bill still provides that a tax of q shall be paid on each dog in AlabamS of more than four months of age. The bill has met with much favor. Pre- vious Legislatures have been afraid to tamper with the question of dog tax. The man who has dog has also a vote in the hill counties. The Black Belt members have not been very much afraid of 1t. because the negro is the chief accumulator oS dogs. It's a very poor negro in the Black Belt who has not been able to accumulate three or four dogs.
 Mastin of Montgomery mas met with much favor. Still 1t would have been left on the House calendar if Captain Mastin had not called 1t up and pushed 1t through.
 The Finance and Taxation Committee also favorably reported the bill mak- ingan appropriation of $2.50O to the Negro Normal School of Montgomery. of which Prof. w. B. Paterson is principal. This school apears to have met with more favor among the mem- bers of the Legislature than any other negro school of the State. The mem bers of the Board of Trustees are all Alabamiaps and many of them are Montgomerians.
