One Way Of Making Good Catches In

Il. ID. Smith. A. II. Gasque, c. and
A. Hugh Hines went fishing near Eff.

runs into Lynches river. They had
1ne sport and caught 10s OF the finest
red breasts in the country.

hands. All YOU have to do ia to feel

ally pick them out of the water with
the hands. Those gentlemen had fine
fun. They caught some shad, but they
were poor, exc ,pt one, and were put
back In the water. One snake was
killed.
The only bad thing about fishing
this way is the fact that there are
some snakes under the logs, and II by
chance the fisher gets his hands on a
moccnsin there Is generally something
doing. Mr. Johr ,on, who lives in
that section, int viewed snake the
other day In scne trash where red

German Syrup

We want to impress on our readers
that Boschee's German Syrup is
positively the only preparation on
the market today that does relieve
and cure consumption. Tt contains
the specifice, such as pure tar, ex-
tracts of gum, etc, ETC., which have
been so highly endorsed for the cure
of coughs, colds and consumption
by the great medical congresses.
The consumptive, whether his disease
is in the throat or lungs, must have
rest at night, aud be free from the
spasm of dry and racking cough in
the morning. The diseased parts
want rest, neallng and soothing
tseatment, and the patient needs
fresh air, good food, etc, German

and Arkansas enormous quanti-
ties of fertilizers are purchased
annually by the farmers, garden
ers and orchardists. In the
eastern states a potato grower
will sometimes pay from $50 to
$50 for commercial fertilizers,
with which to fertilize a single
acre of land planted to potatoes.
In New York, West Virginia, and
many other states a farmer will
pay from So to IS for the fertiliz.
er to go on acre of land which he
sows to wheat. In the southern
states planter will use from

Wisconsin Fertility Valuable

The high value of southern
Wisconsin farm lands, that sell
today for $1OO and upward per
acre, seems abnormal to many
people. It is a high valuation.
1t is two to three times the price
at which farms may be purchas-
ed in many of the eastern states.
The secret of this condition of
affairs is not far to seek or diff
cult of recognition. Southern
Wisconsin was at one time a
wheat growing section. but dis
covered in time that change
was necessary if the land was
not to be robbed of it's fertility.
That change was made and many
of the southern counties do not
now raise enough wheat to feed
a northern Wisconsin lum Der
camp; but Wisconsin thus be-
came the greatest butter and
cheese state in the union and the
value of farm lands rose rapidly.
Fortunately the people of north

The first session of the SiX-
tieth Congress is rapidly draw
ing to a close. There will be no
financial legislation and some of
the most widely advertised
measures have not been acted
upon, but much sound legisla-
tion has been passed and the re-
cord is not one to be ashamed of.
More, probably, of the measures
urged by the President will be
craven On the statutes than is
popularity supposed for after all
it is the measures which encount-
er great opposition and finally
fail which receive the widest ad-
vertising in the columns Of the
press. Among the achievements
of the session is the raising of
widows pension from IS to $12 a
month and the passage of num-
Der of Omnibus pension bills
whereby some 1000 veterans
have been provided for. Others
are a model Child Labor law for
the District of Columb ia. a fed
eral liability bill, an employers
liability bill, etc.

Upon the subject the following
from an address by Prof. w. A.
Henry before a meeting of dairy
men is in point:

of com mercial fertilizers, al

those in Wisconsin have pur-
chased them and used them on
their farms. Not so in the east

A great amount of executive
business has been done by the
Senate. A long list of arbitra-
tion treaties have been passed,
and not the least important con-
ventions are the trade mark and
copyright treaties with Japan.
whereby japanese citizens are
prohibited from forging Ameri-
can trademarks and copy rights
in Corea and China. The United
States has been striving for
such a treaty for three years,
for the Inability of Chinese and
Coreans to read leads them to
depend almost entirely on the
trade marks on goods for identi-
tication, and the Japanese have
shown extraordinary ingenuity
in initiating the American trade
marks. One prominant manu-
facturer of cotton goods told
your correspondent recently that
it was impossible to sell Ameri-
can stuffs in China or Corea
without attractive trademarks
and that he had gotten up such
brands at great expense, only to
have his trade ruined by Japan
csc imitators. Of course the
treaty is equally binding upon
the United States not to forge
Chinese, Japanese or Corean
trademarks, although. so far as
known, no American has ever
desired to do so.

Notes From Washington

From Our Regular Correspondent.
The purpose of Secretary
Taft's recent trip to Panama
was, as is we'll known, to pre-
vent a possible revolutionary out
break there, as critical period
had been reached and a revolu-
ton seemed almost inevita BILE,
and of course such an outbreak
would have greatly EN- barrassed
the Canal Zone authorities. All
the Cabinet meeting, early this
week, the Secretary told Presi-
dent Roosevelt that an arrange
ment had been completed by
which the Panama authorities
had agreed to permit Americans
to watch the election and report
as to whether it is fair. Secre-
tary Taft made public the terms
of this agreement and it is conf
IDENTIFY believed a revolution will
be avoided. the government of
Panama has submitted to the
United States government plans
looking to a fair election. Com
missioners appointed by this
government to inquire into past,
present and future proceedings
started for Panama May 18th.

WHICH WAS THE WISER?
Two men toiled side by side from sun to

And both were poor;
Both sat with children when the day was
done
About their door.
One saw the beautiful in crimson cloud
And shining moon;
The other. with his head in sadness
bowed.
Made night of noon.
One loved each tree and flower and sing
ing bird
On mount or plain;
No music in Tie soul of one was stirred
BY ie,;f or rain.
One saw the good in every fellow man
And hoped tie best;
The other marveled at his Masters plan
And doubt confessed
One, having heaven above and heaven
below,
Was satisfied;
The other, discomfort lived on In woe
And hopeless died.
