QUAKER FARMER
CROWS DRUGS
Philadelphia Man Cultivates
and Grows Many Old
Plants.

Wild growing drug plants are be
coming rare and the time is about a
hand when they must be cultivated
Lewis E. Hellerman, pioneer in thi.
line, has drug farm at Fox Chase
near this city. 1t is queer little farm
with row after row of strange plants
to be found on no other reservation
says special from Philadelphia.
There" says Hellerman, pointing
to long row of innocent looking
green plants, sis bed of the most
deadly poison known to the druggist.
The popular name Is hemlock. 1t poi.
sons in the most violent manner. pro
duclng death from paralysis in a par
tlculariy ugly form. In the proper
hands and administered in minute
doses 1t is valuable remedy.
Business is Risky.
The length of time it takes some
or the plants to matdre makes the
business OF drug farming risky and
requires much patience on the part OF
the farmer. Here, for instance, is a
bed OF carduus mariana, a remedy for
ringworm. 1t takes four years to ma.
ture, aud SO has just four times the
chance to come to an untimely end
that an ordinary farm plant has.
Il am cultivating a plant call au.
gusta fola, to take the place of AGO.
mite. 1t also requires four years to
mature. 1t takes eight years to bring
ginseng to maturity.
AS a result of the scarcity of drug
plants in the wild state prices are on
the increase. Hydrastic has advanced
from % cents to the enormous sum
Of $3.50 pound.
Good Prices sor Product.
Most of the plants you see growing
here sell for 10 cents pound and II
find the profit well repays the trouble
Of cultivation. For instance there is
that bed of pulsatilla, a remedy that
Is used to alleviate catarrhal troubles
It sells for so cents a pound and there
is an ever widening market for it as
the natural supply gets scarcer. Over
there is some felix mass. a drug used
for tapeworm- 1t is practically ex-
tinct in the wild state in this country
and should be raised probably in all
the states. Also the spigella marila-
are trying to cultivate here. 1t has
ceased to exist in the wild state. The
botanists who hunt drugs for the mar
ket have rooted out about the last
plant and it's worth no ones while to
search for 1t any more.
Bugs are Drug Fiends.
Drug plants seem to be peculiarly
attractive TO bugs, and ] have much
-rouble with them. Possibly they are
sick bugs drawing on natures RENE
lies for relief
About two acres is sufficient for a |
1rug farm. Some of the plants re-
luire shade and some thrive best in
he sun. There is no guide book to /
irug farming that / know of. The
drug farmer must learn
which plants like sun by practical ex-
)earience. as i have done. =
I'm a few years suppose drug farm |
rs will be common all over the. coun
ry, for the plants must be cultivated
md the demand will soon bring the
upply down to practically nothing.
1T should always be profitable as
veil as most interesting industry"

THE PROPOSED
TARIFF REVISION
Believed Extension of Time
Will Be Granted to
Hear Witnesses.
By Associated Press.


Washington, Nov. 30.-Among those
who have followed closely the tarifl
hearings before the ways and means
committee of the house, there is an
impression that Representative Serene
e. Payne. chairman of the committee,
will find it impossible to resist the re-
quests for an extension of the time
for witnesses to be heard on the pro-
posed revision of the tariff. 1t is
claimed that not sufficient notice was
given by the chairman TO permit those
interested to gather pertinent facts in
regard TO the schedules in which they
desired changes. This was empha-
sized more especially in the early
hearings and at the hearings last
week nearly all of which required ses-
sions until midnight.
Mr.. Payne also has been asked to
extend the time in which it will be
possible to file briefs, the date origin
ally set as the limit being Friday
next, when some witnesses who were
not allowed much time to address the
committee will be heard again. The
chairman of the committee and those
whose sincerity with regard to the re-
vision of the tariff has been question.
ed, are DESTROYS of dispelling any i'm
preston that all witnesses will not
be given an equal opportunity to be
heard.

Why He Failed as a Leader

His mind was not trained to grasp
great subjects, to generalize, to make
combinations.
He was not self-reliant. did not de-
pend upon his own Judgment; leaned
upon others; and was always seeking
other peoples opinion and advice
He lacked courage, energy, holiness.
He was not resourceful or inventive.
He could not multiply himself in 9TH
ers.
He did not carry the air of con-
queror. He did not radiate the power of
n leader.
There was no power back of his eye
to make men obey him.
He could not handle men.
ne antagoniZed people
He did not believe in himself.
He tried to substitute gall for abl-
ity.
He did not know men.
He could not use other peoples brains.
He could not project himself into his
lieutenants: he wanted to do everything
himself.
He did not inspire confidence in 9TH
ers because his faith in himself was not
strong enough.
He communicated his doubts and his
fears to others.
He could not cover up his weak points.
He did not know that to reveal his
own weakness was fatal to the conf
dence of others.-Success Magazine.
