COMMON SENSE

Leads most Intelligent people to use only
medicines of known composition. There
fore it is that DR.. Pierce'S medicines. the
makers Of which print every ingredient
entering into them upon the bottle wrap
perS and attest its correctness under oath,
are daily growing in favor. The COM
position Of DR.. Pierce's medicines is open
to everybody, DR.. Pierce being DESTROYS
of having the search light of investiga-
tion turned fully upon his formul2, being
confident that the better the composition
OF these medicines is known the more
will their great curative merits be recog-
nized. Being wholly made of the active
medicinal principles extracted from ma
tive forest roots, by exact processes
original with DR.. Pierce, and without the
use of drop of alcohol triple-refined and
chemically pure glycerine being used in
stead III extracting and preserving the
curative virtues residing in the roots
employed, these medicines are entirely
free from the objection of doing harm
Dy creating an appetite for either al
cOhollc beverages or habit forming

bottle wrapperS-the same as sworn to by
Dr. Pierce, and you will find that his

An Interesting Bulletin.

The department of agriculture has
issued an interesting bulletin on farm
practice in the Columbia basin uplands.
1t is the result of three years careful
Investigations, made for the purpose OF
showing how to increase the crop yield.
The area includes portions of Idaho,
Oregon and Washington, where wheat is
the principal farm product. 1t is dis
trict almost surrounded by mountains,
yet of a semi arid nature, and utilized
chiefly for growing cereals. The eleva-
ton varies from a few hundred feet
above sea level to an altitude OF 5000
feet. The rainfall ranges from six inches
to p inches during the year. 1t is with
the dry-land farming that the specialist
deals in the bulletin.
In a large portion of the Columbia
basin, generally known az the Inland
Empire, says the bulletin, the farmers
plan crops only once in two years. They
summer fallow the land and leave it to
rest. In doing this the moisture from
the coming season, the weeds are de-
strOyed and the land put in proper con-
dition for planting when the time for
that work comes. The agent of the de-
partment of agriculture has discovered
that the grain crop can be increased %
per cent by a systematic cultivation OF
the land. The average yield OF wheat
now is 20.4 bushels per acre. 1t is esti-
mated that by adopting modern meth
DDS the entire district will return at least
25 bushels per acre.
The expert agriculturist recommends
disking and narrowing the land in early
spring before blowing, packing the sub
surface after blowing and following by
surface cultivation. Men who have prac
ticed the method report an increased
yield of % per cent over former ways OF
handling the soil To do this requires
disc harrows, corrugated rollers and the
best plows. But those implements are
obtainable, and should be on every farm.
There is no machine manufactured that
is too good for the Washington farmer,
providing it will assist him in getting
better cash returns from his land.
One valuable lesson which every
farmer should learn is that there are
too many varieties of wheat planted for
the financial success of the country. The
experiments of three years demonstrated
that fact. OF the spring varieties the
department recommends Little Club and
Red Chaff for the humid regions and the
Bluestem for arid and semi-arid dis
tricts Of the winter varieties the Tur-
key Red stands at the head OF the list
But the FOrtyfold is reported to be the
best all-round sort for the entire wheat
region Of the Inland Empire. It stands
the winter, is early, and yields we'll under
both arid and semi arid conditions. The
bulletin is a valuable publication in
many respects, and should be in the
farmers library.

What is trade and what is a PROBES.
sion? Professor Joseph French Johnson
OF the New York University says ''trade
is founded on the senses, a profession on
the intellect. Any calling which can be
mastered by the training OF the five
senses is a trade. Any calling which de-
mands knowledge and intellectual effort
is profession" He then answers the
question, Is business a profession? "If
it requires the exercise OF brains rather
than of mere muscle and keen senses, if
business is founded upon science, it is
profession. If business, on the other
hand, is matter of mere muscle, quick
eye, sharp ears and delicate touch, then
it is trade"

That "tall, tall grass" story must
have wrenched the nerves and tore the
brain tissues of the Garfield Enterprise
man last week when he gave it out to
his readers. This Truthful James tells
OF q patch OF hay, mixture of blue
grass and red top, cut from a lot in that
prosperous burg so thick that +" when a
dog belonging to the Potlatch Lumber
Go. worked its way into the center of the
lot it became mired in the grass and re-
manned a prisoner, without food or
water, for two days because it could not
extricate itself. People who are I'M
familiar with this section of the country
and who did not see the hay may con
tend that this is fabrication" If this
tale came from any other section of the
country than the Palouse we would be
ready to call the editor '1iar and a
horse thief," but knowing all the pos.
sibiIities that surround us we have no
hesitancy in standing sponsor for it's
truthfulness.

Barring hot winds, something always
to be reckoned with, Whitman county il
assured Of a big crop Of fall wheat. The
ground is well soaked with rain, and the
warm days and cool nights present ideal
growing conditions. Spring wheat may
need rain later on, but it is delight to
the eye at this writing. With the price
Of wheat soaring skyward it looks as

The Garfield Enterprise says that
Prosecuting Attorney Kipp is either the

This sentiment, from the Cotton News
Letter, will find a hearty response from
a majority of the citizens of Whitman
county: "If Prosecuting Attorney Kipp
is found guilty OF grating as alleged he
should be dealt with as other grafters
have been in various parts of the cOun-
try. If he is found not guilty, then those
responsible for the accusations against
him should be punished to the full extent
of the law"

UNCLE SANS BIG SURPLUS.
Beats All Records-It Amounts to
SGT, 100000.

Washington, June 80. - So far as
working purposes are concerned the
fiscal year of the government closed
yesterday with a surplus OF substantial
ly $S7 900, one of the largest net
balances ever shown. In the fiscal year
1902 there was a surplus OF SOL ,287, 275,
but that was the largest since 1890.
While the official figures for the fiscal
year will not be announced until Mon
day, the figures available today are ap-
prOximately accurate. They show that
in the year just closed, the income from
the various sources Of revenue was
$685., BOIL and expenditures $685.
376,7O9, as compared with receipts of
1894, 454, 121 for the last fiscal year,
and expenditures of $56S, 1874 ,799, the
surplus in that year being $25, 669, 1922.
There has been a tremendous increase
in receipts in the year just closing, while
the expenditures have been only about
100000 in excess of last year. The
largest increase in receipts has been from
customs, although internal revenue has
shown a big gain. The receipts of this
fiscal year in customs were $3.50, $780,
1875 and in internal revenue 1910, 309,-
3SS.
The receipts last year held the record
up to that time, and this years income
from that source is about 500, 100000
In excess Of last year.
Internal revenue receipts likewise beat
all records except during the Spanish
war, when special taxes were being col
lected
There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years, supposed to
be incurable. For a great many years doctors
pronounced it local disease and prescribed
local remedies. and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio is the only constitutional cure
on the market. 1t is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts direct
ly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system They offer one hundred dollars for
any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars
