What do the farmers need in addi-

These questions are being answered
by the farmers themselves since the

the commission will not assemble for

to suggest.
1t is surprising TO the officials here
who are reading these letters that tho
farmers from the four corners of tho
United State should unite practically
with unanimity upon recommending,
as one Of the most important methods
OF making country life attractive, the
erection of community houses.
The club life that means so much
to the city man is wanted by the
farmers, along with other features of

Mother SYMPTOMS Prophecies.

Mother Shipton lived in England
more than five hundred years ago
and uttered several so-called prophc.
cies. The following lines were first
published In 1lSj, before the dis
coyery of America and before any
OF the discoveries and inventions
mentioned therein. All the events
predicted have happened except the
prophecy in the last two lines:
Carriages without horses shall go,
And accidents fill the world with
woe.
Around the world thoughts shall fly
In the twinkling OF an eye.
Waters shall yet more wonders do
Now strange. but shall be true.
The world upside down shall be,
And gold be found at root OF tree.
Through hills man shall ride,
And no horse nor ass be at his side
Under water man shall walk,
Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk.
In the air men shall be seen,
In white, in black, in green.
Iron in the water shall float,
As easy as wooden boat.
Gold shall be found mid stone,
In a land that's now unknown.
Fire and water shall wonders do,
England shall at last admit a Jew.
And this world to end shall come

Their value to the individual, accord
ing to him, is wholly proportional to

one who shall speak full as much good

little use to you. BY manners l mean

BEER DRIVES OUT ABsINTHE.
France takes More Of the Former and
Less of the Latter.


The consumption of beer in France
has increased by more than 40 per
cent during the last five years. In 1906
it reached the imposing total of 3d.
100000 gallons.
1t does not appear that the increas-
ed use of beer has diminished in the
slightest degree the consumption of
wine and cider. But Consul Manson
is quoted in Bonfort's Wine and Spirit
Circular as saying that, as the con-
sumption OF beer increases. that of
alcohol, especially in the perilous form
of absinthe, is slowly but steadily de-
creasing.
The statistics of 1904 show that dur
ing that year the amount of absinthe
sold for drinking purposes in France
fell off more than 10000 gallons, or
2.8 per cent. This is not a sweeping
or conclusive reform, but statistics
seem to show that the maximum
danger point has been passed
Much of the beer is imported Cor
purports to be sol from Pilsen and
Munich, though most of the leading
breweries in other German cities have
Paris agencies and distribute their
beer to retailers This entails high
prices to consumers. as there is a
heavy import duty. Under the slim
illus of this protection the brewery in
dustry of France has developed rapid
ly both il respect to quantity and
quality of the product

Only about a couple of miles from

dustries in the state, says the Kansas
City Journal. Browsing about in per-
feet contentment in a deer park is a
herd of beautiful deer.
This deer park consists of fifteen
acres, and at present there are seven
deer on the premises, eleven having
already been sold this season. The
young deer are sold each year and
bring $35 pair. They are shipped in
August or September. A Mr.. Roseber-
ry has been raising and selling deer
for fourteen years, having as many as
twenty-five on hand at one time. The
herd usually doubles in number each
year.
Occasionally, if frightened suddenly

and head for the hills. But he always
