Temperance Legislation.

Al full caucus of the Republican
members of the Legislature, on
Tuesday evening, it was unanimously
decided in regard to temperance legi-
station, to adopt three propositions
recommended by the committee of
FIVE, appointed at a previous caucus.
The first measure recommended
was he passage of a bill authorizing
the Governor to remove delinquent
county attorneys and appoint their
successors from the same political
party to which the officer removed
belonged The bill did not have any
referendum attached.
The second recommendation of the
committee adopted was the submit
ting of constitutional amendment
authorizing the Governor to remove
delinquent sheriffs and appoint their
successors from the same political
party to which the officer removed
belonged. If this proposed constitu-
tional amendment receives the re-
quisite two-thirds majority in both
houses it is to be Submitted to the
people In September next.
The committee further recommend
ed and the caucusvoted to repeal the
Sturgis law, such repeal to go into ef-
feet upon the ratification of the pro-
posed constitutional amendment, pro-
viding for the removal of delinquent
sheriffs.

Germs in Her System
Every Woman Should Read This

The number of diseases peculiar TO
woman Is such that we believe this
space would hardly contain mere
mention of their names, and it is a
fact that most of these diseases are of
a catarrhal nature. A woman cannot
be we'll If there is trace of the ca
tarrhal germs in her system.
Some women think there is no help
for them. We positively declare this
to be a mista AIKEN idea. We are so
sure OF this that we offer to supply
medicine absolutely free of all cost in
every instance where it fails to give
entire satisfaction or does not sub
stantiate our claims. With this un-
derstanding, no woman should hesi-
tate to believe our honesty ofpurpose,
or hesitate to put our claims to test.
There is only one way to cure Ca
tarrh. That way is through the
blood. You may use all the snuffs,
douehes or like remedies for years
without getting more than temporary
relief at best. Catarrh is caused by
germ. That germ is carried by the
blood to the inhermost part OF the
system until the mucous membrane is
broken, irritation and inflammation
produced, and flow of mucous re-
suits, and you can probably realize
how silly it is to attempt to cure such
an ailment unless you take a medi-
cine that follows the same course as
the germ or parasite.
Rexall Mucu-Tone is scientifically
prepared from the prescription of an
eminent physician who for thirty
years made his specially Catarrh, and
with this medicine he averaged SO
per cent OF cures where it was en-
ployed. No other remedy is 80 prop
erly designed for the ailments of wo-
man. 1t will purify and enrich the
blood, stop mucous discharge, destroy
all germ matter, remove all impuri-
ties from the system, soothe, heal
and strengthen the muc ovs tissues,
and e bring about a good feeling of
health and strength.
We want you to try Rexall Mucu-
Tone on our guarantee. If you are
not benefited, or for any reason not
satisfied, simply tell us and we will
hand back your money. Rexall
Mucu Tone comes in two sizes, Soc.
and S1.00. Frank w. Bucknam,

Skowhegan Grange Horse Day.

The second annual Horse Day of
Skowhegan Grange will occur on
Wednesday, Mar. 8, and preparations
are already being made for that event.
Many of the readers of the REPORTER
will recall the Grange Horse Day of
1908, which took place on May 27th,
and the fine showing of animals which
it brought out. the idea of such an
affair was original in Skowhegan and
the success of the first attempt gave
the members of Skowhegan Grange,
who were especially interested in its
promotion, reason to believe that it
can be made one of the great events
of each recurring season hereafter.
1t Is held in March instead of May
this year and greater effort will be
put forth to attract city buyers, so
that horse owner who has an animal
that is in the market at all will want
to have him here at that time.
Messers Q. H. Chute, r. F. Parker,
@. II. Gardner, s. H. Bradbury and
Lester s. Stevens have charge of the
day for Skowhegan Grange. They
will be pleased to furnish printed
matter giving the program, line of
parade and other particulars, upon
application in person by mail.

Skowhegan Grange.

Last evenings session of Skowhe-
gan Grange, devoted to the general
subject of Dairying in Maine, was
specially profitable and interesting
one. The principal address was given
by Leon s. Merrill of Solon, of the
Maine Agricultural Department, Dairy
Instructor for the State. The ad-
dress covered a wide field but the
lessons to be drawn from it were
plainly, that no dairyman can expect
to realize the best results from his
herd unless he can keep an accurate
record of the cost of maintenance and
the butter fat production OF each in
dividual animal, and that the most
satisfactory. and at the same time the
most economical, way of providing
for such record Is by forming CO.
operative Cow Test Association. Mr..
Merrill gave some accounts OF the
workings of several such associations
already at work in the State and, from
the actual results of the past years
work demonstrates beyond question
that they are thoroughly practical
from every point of view. 1t seems
the net cost per COW for the year, for
the salary of the expert who per-
forms the tests and all other ex-
penses of the associations, has not
exceeded S1.20, and that the increased
profit is so many times that sum as to
make it An insignificant item. Mr..
Merrill's address could not fail to fill
with enthusiasm any dairyman who
is alive to the possibilities of advanc-
ed methods and it would be strange ii
his visit here did not lead to the for
nation OF Cow Test Association
for this section. Other numbers on
the program were a specially fine
paper on Butter and Cheese Making
as an Industry, by Mrs. Mae AL en-; a
reading, "Tbe Palmyra Moose Hunt"
Albert r. Smiley, and vocal solo by
Mrs. Emma II. Dunton. At it's busi-
ness session several candidates were
elected to membership. and large
number Of new applications received.
The proposition of the Brotherhood
of st. Paul, for a joint debate on the
question, "Resolved that automobiles
should be taxed by lhe horsepower"
was accepted, and Messrs. R. I. Pat
tern, @. Davis Miller and G. H. Gard
ner were appointed as disputants to
represent the Grange In upholding
the affirmative of that proposition.
This debate is to occur on the even
ing of April 20. The Lecturer called
attention to the prizes offered by the
Maine Farmer for short papers on the
question "What special improvement
can farmers reasonably expect to Sc
cure by cooperative effort and by
what channel must it conner" and an
nounced that these should be written
at once and handed to Mrs. Cyrus w.
Goodrich at or before the meeting of
March 8. The list of prizes and other
particulars appea. in the Grange
program in connection with the
meeting of February II.
No action was taken with regard to
the repetition of the drama, "Willow-
dale" and it does not seem likely that
it will be given on the date originally
proposed, February 10th.
