ADVERTISING FOR PEOPLE.

Eastern states realize little Of the
hustle and strife for population and
prosperity that their western sister
states are putting forth The eastern
states. having the natural ports Of entry
Of a majority Of the immigrants to the
United States have not been compelled
to put forth efforts to retain consider
able portion Of the newcomers, since the
immigrants drop down into whatever
places they find most convenient and
nearest to their landing point. In fact,
there has been too much Of this settling
down from the current Of incoming life
in New York City. and the problem there
is more to spread out the immigrants
rather than to encourage them to re-
main at the port of entry. New York
City may be aided in the solution Of its
problem by the concerted efforts, which
are being put forth in the western
states to attract portion Of this food
of foreigners. For instance, the state
Of Missouri through its board Of immi-
grafton. IS engaged in pushing the public
ity Of the advantages to be secured
there; and one Of the means Of dissent
mating the information will be the intel

ERECTING FARM WIRE FENCE.
Easy, Quick and Thorough Way Of Do.
ing the Work.

In erecting woven wire fence, IL
you wish to put up big string in
day and do good job. IL is neces-
sary to know where to take hold and
what TO do so as not to lose valuable
time. Bear in mind the old adage,
stitch in time saves nine When haul
ing fence to the field where you ex-
pect to put 1t up, notice which way II
unrolls and drop 1t at the right end,
so you will not have TO roll or load It
again and haul II to the other end OF
the field. Don't put II up wrong side
out, especially along the public road.
or course, you will not think OF
sighting those end posts There arc
many ways, but for me. have found
no better method to anchor an end
post or hang a gate than the ono
shown In the accompanying cut.
Now, the advantage is, you can still
have your bowder to tie to, and not
be in the road of your gage given
the wire or wires. | use two No.
wires, and wrap around the end post
at ground line, then drive staples,
and 1t will help to keep your post
from turning. Now, If you have done
this and anchored all low posts you
are ready to put on the fence.
l always set the roll OF fence up
on end beside the end post and I'M
roll enough to go around the end
post and splice. Did you ever think
how you would put in new end post
If necessary? II you do you will sure
| ly need the wire 1t takes to go around
the end post, and by wrapping around
the end you will save some Of the
side pull. Now, If you have put your
fence on the head post straight there
Is no reason why 1t should not pull
straight unless the fence is poorly
made, In which case you will need to
keep sweet and do the best you can.
AS you likely have your tools In the
wagon or buggy, lay the fence down
and run your gas pipe through the
roll. Have short chains around the
axle to gas pipe, then drive for tho
other end of the fence. Be sure To
keep your fence clear Of snags and
roots while stretching.
IL there are one or more wires that
are much lighter than the others.
take wrench and loosen the bolt that
holds these wires, and let them slip
back. You need not be afraid that
the Twill go very far. Now, II there
should be a slack wire, says Orange
Judd Farmer, loosen at clamp bar and
pull 1t out with your hand stretcher.
which you can easily do. If you have
creased your staples, you are ready To
finish up the job quickly, and YOU
should be able, by knowing just where
to take hold, to put up 100 to 200 rods
day on level ground, and do q
good job.

USE OF MANURE.
Result of Experiments Made by Some
English Farm Experts.

Twenty tons of barnyard manure
per acre was slightly more profitable
than the use of ten tons, when the
price was not more than SO cents per
ton. This was determined in some
English experiments. A light dressing
of barnyard manure with suitable
application of commercial fertilizers
was more profitable than the use OF
barnyard manure alone The results
also indicated that large and profitable
crops of potatoes can be grown with
the use of complete mixture of COM
mercia1 fertilizers. When barnyard
manure is to be used in conjunction
with commercial fertilizers the follow
ing application per acre is recommend
ed: Barnyard manure, ten tons; sui
plate OF ammonia. 150 pounds; su-
perphosphate, 400 pounds, muriate OF
| potash, $50 pounds. On land wen
stored with humus. or on soils which
have been literally treated with barn
yard manure In previous years, the
use per acre of $50 pounds of sulphate
of ammonium, 600 pounds OF super
phosphate and $50 pounds of muriate
of potash is considered adequate for
satisfactory crops.

zone Touch of Nature Makes the
Whole World Kim"

When a rooster finds big fat worm
he calls all the hens in the farmyard
to come and share it. A similar trait
when a man discovers something ex-
ceptionally good--he wants all his
friends and neighbors to share the
benefits Of his discovery. This is
the touch of nature that makes the
whole world kin. This explains why
people who have been cured by Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy write letters
to the manufacturers for publication,
that others similarly ailing may also
use it and obtain relief. Behind every
one of these letters is warm-hearted
wish of the writer to be of use to
someone else. This remedy is for
sale by Hays & Field and Yellow Pine
Pharmacy.

NEW YORK, April 21.-Sam Lang
ford with his manager, Joe Woodman,
sailed today for England to report to
the National Sporting Club Of London
ready to live up to his agreement to
fight Jack Johnson there on May "a.
Langford met the clubs American
representative and put his name to
the articles of agreement signed by
Sam Fitzpatrick in behalf of Johnson
last fall, which call for $4,000 purse,
$4,000 to the winner and $4,000 to the
loser This agreement has since been
repudiated by Johnson, who, when in
terviewed by Langford and Woodman,
declared again with emphasis he
would not go to England to fight and
that he refused to respect any and all
contracts made for him by Fitzpat-
rick.
Manager Bettinson of the National
Club, in a cable dispatch received
here, said that if Johnson did not meet
Langford May "a he was simply con-
tract breaker. but this did not appear
to bother the big colored champion at
all Johnson is after the money and
says there is more Of it over here than
in King Edwards country.
Having crawled out of a match
with Langford in London, and proba-
bly, convinced that Jefferies will not
cover his $4,000 forfeit-which, by the
