Dear Doctors:
God bless you! I have been thinking for the
past few days that l should write to you telling
you how much better ! was. Every one who saw
me before l began to doctor with you, and sees
me now, remarks about the wonderful improve
ment in me. You emember when I came to you
how crippled up / was-I could not even write a
letter, my arms were so bad. l had to step both
feet on one step II I wanted to go upstairs and
my body was much enlarged with dropsy; yes
and the muscles of my head were swollen from
pain. l remember you told me l was In oad con-
dition and could not expect the medicine to do
me much good for two or three months; well, you
have done more for me than you agreed to. II
is Just seven weeks since I began to doctor with
you. The pain has left my head and I can
remember SO much better. This week l helped 10
do the ironing for six of US, and I can go up and
down stairs like other folks-in fact, l do not
limp at all, and the dropsy has gone so I can put
my clothes on neat as they should be. l must
tell you 1 asked a policeman on the street to
direct me to another doctor. I guess he mis-
understood me. for he sent me to you. I really
believe God intended It that way. Another thing
I like about you-you take just as much interest
in my case as in those that can afford 70 pay you
more. May many sufferers find their way to you.

More and more people of Omaha, Ne
baska, and surrounding states are learning
that the A~ustro-American treatment is the
most successful in the world for those suffer-
ing with Rheumatism, Goiter, Epilepsy, Gall
Stones, Diseases of the Liver, Kidneys, Stom-
ach, Blood. Chronic and Nervous Diseases of
Men and Women, etc. Since the Austro-
American Doctors have established their
Omaha office they have treated and cured
hundreds of seemingly hopeless cases, many
of which have been pronounced incurable by
ordinary physicians methods.

BOSTON CRABS THE WOOL
Does So by Paying Almost Double
Price of Last Year.
CHICAGO WAREHOUSES EMPTY
Huh Dealers, Says w. ID. Moody OF
Chicago, Are Paying "a to 20
Cents Per Pound for West
ern Clip.

Chicago is not getting the wool to store
in the new warehouse and Omaha can little
expect to secure any amount of wool this
year, but Boston is paying the price-al-
most double what was paid last year"
This frank statement of the wool ware
house situation was made by w. d. Moody,
general manager of the Chicago Associa-
ton of Commerce in an interview while
visiting Omaha with the Chicago delega-
ton.
THE situation is remarkable, and with
Boston buyers paying from "a to rs cents
per pound for wool, the warehouses are
left to fill their large spaces with sugar
or merchandise. The object of the ware
houses was to give the growers an oppor-
tunity to hold their wool for higher prices
and in the meantime have the opportunity
Of borrowing against 1t II necessary.
Wool was then bringing ~ to Is cents
per pound. At present 1t is bringing "a to
% cents, and Boston has bought the clip
of Wyoming and Montana and has most OF
It in the warehouses of that city. Growers
would not think of holding when such a
price was observation-disclosures and buy
ers were afraid to miss the opportunity to
secure the wool"
Both growers and manufacturer say mo
one knows what will happen to wool when
the tariff is finally fixed"
William II. Manss, the former industrial
commissions OF the Chicago Association
of Commerce, who secured the subscrip-
lions to the S4OO, 900 capitalization of the
Chicago Wool Warehouse company. had
nothing to say as to whether the stock
holders would be called on to pay an
amount TO the company equal to the stor-
age charge on the number of pounds OF
wool pledged. Some charge for main
~tainance of the warehouse will have TO be
made.
Comparatively few carloads OF wool are
stored in Omaha. The prices offered nave
been too high. ]. A. Delfelder, vice presi-
lent of the omaha Wool and Warehouse
company, who had a clip Of almost half
a million pounds, consigned 1t all to
Omaha and sold it from the warehouse
here at "a to 26h cents said to be the
highest price paid for such a clip of wyom-
ing wool.

subject was animal Sera and Vaccines,"
and he declared that nearly every disease
known to man, and from which both man
and beast suffer, can either be prevented
by the patient being made immune by
treatment with DActerln or q cure erected
by the use of sera or vaccines.
Il never hesitate to advise the use of
bacterin, for an ounce Of prevention is
worth a pound of cure " said DR.. Kinsley.
Il advise its use by humans, as l under
stand It is now being experimental with
on soldiers at the forts near Omaha, and
advise its use on cows by dairymen.'
According to DR.. Kinsley every disease
known to man with the exception Of lock-
Jaw, mumps, diphtheria, whooping cough
and typhoid and scarlet fever can be pre-
vented by the prior use Of bacterin. These
diseases can be cured by sera or vaccines.

The advantages of growing COW
peas are briefly summarized by the
Louisiana Experiment Station as
follows: I) The cowpea is nj
trogen gatherer; 60 it shades the
soil in the summer, keeping 1t III a
condition most suitable to the most
rapid nitri6cation and leaves it
friable and loose and i'll the best
condition for future crop; Cd 1t
has large root development, and
hence pumps up from great dept
and large areas the water, and with
II fhe mineral matter needed by the
plant; Cd its adaptability to all
kinds Of soils, stiffest clay to most
porous sands, fertile alluvial bot
toms to barren uplands; (5) It
stands the heat and sunshine OF our
climate; CO. its rapid growth en-
bles us to grow two crops on the
same soil; Cd when sown thickly
it shades the soil efectually, ,smoth'
ering out all weeds and grasses
and thus serves as cleansing
crop; (8) tits the best preparatory
crop known to the Southern farm
er-every kind of crop grows vel
after 1t; (o) 1t furnishes a most ex
celIent food in large quantities fo'
man and beast.

Ireioice to know that thousands
of our boys are becoming members
of the corn clubs i'll various coun-
ties. This means that the coming
generation of farmers will grow
more corn per acre and take more
interest III farming.
Young men, it is not the profes-
sion or station in life that confers
honor upon a man, but the man
that dignifes the profession or sta
ton. Townsend, who originated
a fine variety of turnips in England
many years ago, was nicknamed
"Turnip Townsend" by the wits
of licentious court; but all now
admit that Townsend did more for
England thereby than was done
by the members of the court. DR..
Johnson once said of some one
sneeringly, that his conversation
savored of bullocks, yet the world
could as we'll have dispensed with
a Johnson as with Colliug or
Bakewell.
God placed the stamp Of honor
uron honest labor. The man who
-aaes not honor the efficient honest
laborer has not the Christian spirit
in his heart. And when speak
of honest labor, l do not mean
physical labor alone. There are
thousands of clerks, merchants,
sales-girls, and others who toll as
honestly as the man OH the farm or
in the factory.
So far as true manhood is con-
cerned, no man is the superior Of
an honest, successful farmer.
There is no vocation in the world
higher than his. The great farm
ers Of the world, who have by
cross fertilization and other means
changed many poisonous. plants in
TO plants now used as food by hui
man beings, have ceased to live,
but their names will adorn the
pages of history. The farmers who
have by selecting and cross-breed-
ing produced cows that give from
FIVE to twelve gallons of milk per
day, sheep that produce from
twenty 6ve-to fifty pounds of wool
at one sheering, the swift running
and trotting horses, the five gated
saddle horse, the different breeds
of beef cattle, and hogs and many
other animals of such great intel
ligence and usefulness will always
be revered. The farmers who have
originated such wonderfully pro-
ductive varieties of seed will live
in the minds and hearts of people
as long as time lasts. Burbank
has done more for this world thar
any philanthropist who ever lived
And no captain of finance, no law
yer, no doctor, will ever be held
in such high esteem.

urge every farmer to raise his
home supplies this year. Do not
think for one moment that our cot
ton conventions and warehouses
will save us If we fail to grow our
home supplies. All cooperative
schemes of holding or selling will
be of but little benefit to the farm
er who is in debt for his living and
the feed for his stock. There is
one remedy and only one remedy
for low priced cotton and that is to
live at home and practice the most
rigid economy until we get out OF
debt. The growing of all feed and
food will reduce the cotton acreage
at least IS per cent and force the
price up to at least IS cents per
pound. But why talk along this
line any longer. We all know just
how to get a good price for our
cotton and at the same time keep
our cotton money at home instead
of sending it north and west to pay
for bacon, lard, mules, horses, etc.
