of the facts recently brought to my
attention concerning this Cooper medi-
cine have gone far toward removing
the prejudice l had formed against
them when I first heard of Cooper's
new ideas and medicines.
Numbers of my patients whom I
have treated for chronic liver, kidney
and stomach troubles have met me and
stated that Cooper's medicine has &C.
complished wonderful results for
them. notice particularly in cases
of stomach trouble that the man has
relieved several cases that were of
years standing and proved very OBJ
stinate to treatment.
L do not wish to stand in the way
of something that may be for the pub
lie good, simply through professional
prejudice, and am inclined to give
Cooper and his preparations credit as
deserving to some extent the popular
demonstration that has been accorded
them in this city,"
We sell the Cooper medicines. They
are proving remarkably successful
throughout the entire United States.

FOR THE FARMERS
Nuggets of Information of Value
to the Soil TiIIer
KEEP The MILK CLEAN
The Demand is Growing for Lactea
Fluid That Contains No Dirt
The Asparagus Bed

At present there is a growing cry
for clean milk: We hear it from
physicians on all sides This is to
be commended The dairyman has
heard it and is willing to respond as
soon as the heads Of families realize
that cent Or two more for a quart
of milk may save the baby's life.
A representative of the milk COM
mission of an Eastern city once told
me, The farmers do not get enough
fer their milk. They can't be ex-
pected to make good article for four
cents a quart | quite agreed with
him, but before he finished talking
he said, Milk is a necessity and the
city people can not pay higher prices.
Prices of food stuffs is too high now"
Here this man presented two views
of the same subject and We are
sometimes at loss to know which
is the correct one.
Will it pay to make clean milk?
The answer is Yes, when it is ap-
preciated" In many cities now the
demand is sufficient and dairymen
are making money by putting on the
frills" so ridiculed by most farmers.
To make this milk one needs
hoo hNya
ventilated, ceiled overhead and with
cement floor. The barn should be
scrubbed daily: the COWS groomed
and udders washed before milking.
The mixers must wear clean suits
and the pals should be partly cover
, ed. AS soon as possible the milk
should be cooled to at least fifty de-
grees, bottled and kept cold until it
reaches the consumer; and the soon
e. he gets it the better. OF course
all utensils and bottles must be abso-
lutely clean. Milk made in this
ditiOns, seven cents quart delivered.
Making clean milk is not a COM
plicated process as many farmers are
inclined to think but it takes a lot
more help and a bigger investment.
For this reason it is necessary to OBJ
tain at least ten cents quart in
order to insure a respectable profit.
There is no doubt that sooner or
later all cities will demand high
quality of milk. Until then let each
dairyman study his market, always
making a little better article than
his competitors, thus gradually rails
ing the standard.
Asparagus is d real luxury to the
farmers family, but it is neglected
because the opinion still prevails
that the plants are difficult to OBJ
tain and of very slow growth. AS
paragus will grow like weeds where
ever the seeds are planted. These
can be obtained very cheaply, by
the ounce or pound from seedsmen.
Plant in drills, giving the seedlings
clean cultivation during the growing
season. They will make a thrifty
growth and become large enough to
transplant the following spring

however. two-year-Old roots are con
sidered the more desirable.
The expense Of growing the roots
from seed is very small, indeed, and
insures a generous supply for lib
eral paintings at home, with some
for the deserving neightor. Aspara-
gus. like rhubarb, delights in a deep.
rich soil. This may be secured tv
spreading plenty of Wei composted
manure and blowing the ground
deeply. Use the disk and smooth
ing harrow to thoroughly pulverize
and fix them in the soil. Mark tie
rows with a pillow, making the Ia
rows six to eight inches deep ID
three to four feet apart. Drop no
roots about twelve inches apaII IN
these burrows. Cover with the psow
and level the ground, using hat
row or cultivator.
The crowns of the asparagus
plants should he fully six inches be
low the surface which will admit go
ing over the rows with dish Or
pillow each spring without disturb
ing the roots. Use the weeder and
cultiyatro frequently during the
summer to keep the weeds under
control. Cover the rows each fall
with a liberal dressing Of well com
posted barnyard manure which
should be spread and worked into
the soil in the spring.
Asparagus is planted with less
work than rhubarb and does not re-
quire much more care. Every farm-
er grows pieplant regardless If the
sugar required to reduce it's acidity
for the table. Why not plant aspar-
agus wherever rhubarb is grown?
The housekeeper appreciates its
value lecause it appears in the gar
den between the old and new supply
of vegetables. 1t is easily prepared
and cooks quickly-everybody eats
until small fruits ripen. If you are
not prepared to buy asparagus
plants SOW the seed this spring and
grow them.

ONE OF THE FINANCIAL PUZZLES.

The worlds production of gold was $685.
100000 last year and continnes to climb, says
the St. Louis Globe Democrat A hundred
years ago the yield was $12,oOO,OOO. Eight
wears ago it was $262,OOO,OOO. The worlds
stock of gold has doubled since 1898. In recent
wears the line of profit in working gold ores
has been lowered from $14 to So The output
is practically sure to go on increasing. 1t is
said that this great yield of gold is the ma in
cause of the advance in the cost of living Ii
this theory is true, the farmer is indebted to
the gold mines for good returns tor all his pro-
ducts, and the workman is similarly indebted
for enlarged wages But on the other side is
the larger outgo for necessities. In striking
the balance is decidedly on the side of present
conditions. Steady employment at good wages
is more than an Offset for living expenses,
which are to same extent adjustable.
In Mr. Bayans famous Chicago convention
speech he said the bankers Of the world had
cornered gold and that a few of them met
daily in a back room to fix it's price. He is like
ly to be the Deanocr attic candidate again this
year. What has he to say now OF the gold sup
ply and the cost OF co mmodities? The low
price of farm products IN 1906, and for several
years preceding, theme, on which he
spoke pathetically. He denounced what he
called conspiracy to cruelty mankind on a
cross of gold. Now the complaint is that gold
pours out so freely that prices, in which it is
measured, are soaring. Another branch of the
subject is dearth of currency with. nearly
s5OO,OOO,OO0 year in fresh gold coming from the
mines But, after all, these problems ssare. on
the side of plenitude, and no doubt, can be
worked out satisfactorily unless there can be
too much Of good thing like gold.

pathetic story comes from Minneapolis
of a mother who determined to obtain money
enough to purchase tickets for Switzerland,
toiled day after day over the washtub while her
children shivered at home. The case was I'm

c. H. Colyer, of Wheaton, has announced
himself as candidate for the Republican no.

might be given the nomination for governor
and Mr.. Jacobson place on the board OF rail-

better acquainted with the needs of our state
institutions than any other man in the state,
Mr. Dunn would make an admirable chairman
