|PR|SON TRUCK FARM
ONE OF FEATURES OF MISSOURI
 PENITENTIARY.
Is Started Because Warden of institu. ton Likes to See Things Crow Welcome Change in Con-
 vict Fare.

Jefferson City, Mo.-Truck garden. Ing on a large scale has become one of the features of the management os the Missouri penitentiary. under Matt w Hall. who is a farmer when not in the public service, and has the inborn desire of all farmers to see things growing around him. On what is known as the state farm" he has this year produced tremendous amount of garden stuff of all kinds, all of which is utilized on the prison table, affording a very welcome and health full change of menu for the conyiets.
 The state farm consists of Al acres of land Part of it has been cut away in supplying clay for the prison brickyard, part is utilized as a pas ture, and about IA acres are titled for the prison garden.
 Some idea of the magnitude of the output of the prison garden can be gained by the statement that 470 bush els of snap beans have already been fed to the conyicts this season. It takes 70 bushels to go around at one meal in the prison dining room.
 On three-quarters of an acre of ground 26.500 pounds of cabbage have been cut this season. This is not all of the cabbage crop, but this was an early and unusually prolific patch. There are several acres more of the garden in cabbage.
 Onions to the amount of several hundred bushels, besides several meals of young onions, served early ill the spring, radishes, rhubarb and other stuff were grown in the greatest abundance
 The pride of the warden and his sn. perintendent. John Hrumer. eenters, however, in the tomato crop. Eleven thousand seven hundred vines, cover ing something over three acres of ground Gre in full fruit. and yield now something like 40 bushels per day, \ Eore welcome addition to the prison fare than sliced tomatoes could not be supplied. The crop is exceedingly prolific and fine this season, and the vines will keep on bearing until frost.
 Col Hall figures on having enough green tomatoes to pick late in Sep tember to make several hegsheads of schow chow and other pickles to add to the prison larder
 The garden lies on top of some of the high bluffs overlooking the Mis- souri river The land originally was not the best. but has been brought to a high state of productiveness by fer tilization. Six or eight crippled and superannuated conVicts are employed in the garden under the supervision of Mr. Brumer
 It is the intention of Warden Hall to put in next spring a small herd of cows for the purpose of supplying milk and butter for the prison hos. pital They will be kept in connection with the garden and will work con siderable saving to the state as the milk and butter supply for the hos pital now costs something like six dol lars per day.

FEET OUT.
She Had Curious Habits.

When a person has to keep the feet out from under cover during the cold est nights in winter because of the heat and priekly sensation, it is time that coffee, which causes the trouble, be left off.
 There is no end to the nervous con ditions that coffee will produce It shows in one way in one person and in another way in another In this case the lady lived in s. pak. She says
 T have had to lie awake half the night with my feet and limbs out of the bed on the coldest nights, and felt afraid to sleep for fear of catching cold. l had been troubled for years with twitehing and jerking of the lower limbs, and for most of the time have been unable to go to churchor to lectures because of that awful feeling that l must keep on the move.
 When il was brought to my atten- tion that coffee caused so many ner- vous diseases. I concluded to drep coffee and take Postum Food Coffee to see if my trouble was caused by coffee drinking
 T only drank one cup of coffee for breakfast but that was enough to do the business for me When I quit il my troubles disappeared in an almost eiraculous way. Now l have no more of the jerking and twitehing and can sleep with any amount of bedding over me and sleep all night, in sound. peace ful rest.

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 phy. sician for an obstinate case of eczema, l resorted to the Gutfcura Remedies, and was so well pleased with the al most instantaneous relief afforded that We discarded the physicians prescrip. tion and relied entirely on the Cuti- eura Soap. Guticnra Ointment, and Cn- ticura Pills. When we commenced with the Cuticura Remedies 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.
 Tn July of this year a little boy in our family poisoned lis 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, and in about three weeks his hands and arms healed up. Mrs Lizzie Vincent Thomas. Fairmnnt, Walden's Ridge Tenn, Oct. 13. 1905.9
