when I publicly recommended them
three years ago. In 1902 my husband
procured his first supply OF Doan's
Kidney Pills at Hunter Palmer's drug
store and after taking them for a
short time was cured Of pains across
his loins, a trouble which had caused
him considerable suffering, especially
when he brought any strain on the
muscles of the back. That he derived
lasting benefits Is evidenced by the
fact that he has never been bothered
seriously since. When there has been
the least indication of backache or
weakness across the loins. an appeal
to Doan's Kidney Pills has never fall
ed to promptly and absolutely remove
the trouble. My own experience with
them was also a very satisfactory
one. Our son recentlv showed symp-
toms OF weak kidneys but after he
took Doan's Kidney Pills his condi-
ton was greatly improved"

THE GARDEN HuCKELBERRY
MAKES fine FAMILY fruit

Several weeks ago the Colorado
Agricultural College published a note
in regard to the so-called garden
huckleberry This article was extern
sively copied througout the United
States, and letters in reply have been
received from many and unexpected
sources. One man in New York state,
on the strength of our supposed ignor-
ance of the real huckleberry, writes
an interesting dissertation on the
merits of that lucious fruit. A woman
in Michigan, however, gives US he
real Information for which we were
seeking. Her letter Is so interesting
public, as we are sure that there is a
place in various portions of Colorado
for this fruit:
LAS l am a reader of the 'Metho-
politan and Rural Home 1 saw your
letter on the Garden Huckleberry
thought l would answer it as 1 have
used the garden huckleberry for the
last four years and would not think
of having a garden without the huck-
leberry in it. We are very fond of it
for sauce and pies. 1t is very nice
and nearly like the real huckleberry
when cooked, but not so good to eat
out of the hand for it is like eating
a green tomato. Even when the berry
is ripe, If you will notice, the large
berry is shaped like a tomato. The
vine looks a great deal like the right
shades, but if you will compare the
two plants you can see quite differ
ence. The night shade berry hangs
down and the huckleberry turns up to
the sun. The huckleberry is larger
and different in shape from the night
shade berry: and the huckleberry is
not poison as Is the berry of the night
shade.
"Now l will tell you how to. use the
garden huckleberry. have made pies
from the green berries which have
little more tant to them than the ripe
berry, but I always put a little vine
gar in to make the tant taste, that is
when l use the fresh fruit; but to can
or preserve them l put tart apples or
some sour fruit with them. To two
quarts of berries use one of very sour
apples, sliced, or more If that is not
enough. I may say. youu will have to
learn to like it just the same as many
people have to learn to like celery.
We are very fond of them.
Last year we had fifteen plants
and from the fifteen plants l gathered
sixty-eight quarts OF ripe .ruit, and
much Of he fruit was not ripe last
year owing to an early frost. The gar
den huckleberries will grow and do
we'll where tomatoes will grow and
they are just as easy to grow as to-
matoes, and there is always a ready
market for them. Here they sell as
high as Is cents a quart. I received
10 cents quart for one bushel. and
could have sold fifty. l expect to
raise twenty-five or thirty bushels
this year, If frost does not prevent me
I've live in the north part Of the
state and some years we get frost
here long before other parts Of the
state does"

A woman dresses for a man to capture him as best she can. by every little toAy plan Ter future to assure. Her figure first must fll the bill. She pads and pinches with will, forms a fine back ground for each frill, the tempting game to lure.
 With gown of voil, in princess style. with costly silks from orient sfe: With fancy pumps that cost { tile, she seeks to grasify. EQ1 taan she wears the gay glad rags. though of their cost she sel- 5osr ffags, and yet her spirit never flags until she satisfy.

|NCFND|ARY FIRES
THE FIRE MARSHAL'S ANNUAL
REPORT SHOWS NUMBER
DIMINISHED
SEVERAL BUGS CONVICTED
AMONG THEM FOUR YOUTHS OF
CANTON WHO ARE NOW
DOING TIME

Mitchell-State Fire Marshal Craft,
Of this city has Just completed his an
nual report for the business of his of
flee for the fiscal year, and 1t shows
that the position OF the fire marshall
has had a good effect in doing away
with fires of ~incendiary nature, and
in five of them he was able to secure
n conviction, the most notable %
which was the arrest of four young
men at Canton, who set fire to a
number of buildings. The local au-
thorities at Canton succeeded in effect
ing the arrest and they finally pleaded
guilty and were sentenced to -four
years in the penitentiary. Six prairie
fires have come under the notice OF
the fire marshal, and in every instance
the violator of the state law was found
guilty and was forced to pay a fine.
1t is the aim of the department to
make the law effective a sa %preventa-
tive to incendarism, and in this re-
spect much has been accomplished.
The bulletins hat have been issued
to the state press have also been of
much assistance to people in general
in learning the cause of fires and
warnings how to prevent them. That
there has been a falling off of fires in
the past year is noticeable from the
figures. There were 4546 fires report
ed to the department in 1908, while
there were but 304 in 1909. The total
losses by fires in the state in 1908
amounted to 500, 1886, while in
1909 the sum was only S42S,S77.09
The redutio min the losses Is signih-

over $1,000, 900 more fire risks carried
at present than in 1908.
There are Z ~5insurance companies
doing business in the state, which in
cludes the mutuals that are organiz-
ed / nthe state. They are required to
pay a certain percentage of their pre-
miums to the fire marshal department
to help defray the expenses Of the
office. The sum paid by the companies
for the closing year amounted to &c.
717.17, and the expenses of the office
was $5,732.O4.
In the summary of causes Of fires

closely with IS, lightning produced IL

five by gasoline explosion.

ERROR IN STATEMENT
Deferred Payments on School Lands
Belong to Fund

Pierre-At the time the statement
was made up by A. e. Chamberlain,
which was published several days ago
in regard to the permanent school fund
an error crept into the statement thru
a misunderstanding. In giving the
amount of the permanent fund from
which the schools draw income, only
the loans were given at a little over
four million. While this was the fact
S o far as it went, income is also Sc
cured from the deferred payments on
sales of the lands, which Is just as
much a part of the fund as are the
loans and the total fund both in loans
and deferred payments, and by omit
ting them, the showing was not what
it should have been for the school fund
of the state. The interest from this
fund and the incomes from leases
brings a sufficient revenue to the
schools of the state, that even now
some of the rural schools are being
conducted with this fund alone, and
the number will increase each year,
as the fund increases in amount, and
the income grows with 1T. Up to the
present only a small portion of the
school lands have been disposed Of to
secure this immense fund. The state
yet holds 1874, 249 acres of school
lands in the organized counties, and II
is estimated that there are 522,240
acres in the unorganized counties. As
tho Iopdc have haeu sailing at an ay-
erage well above twenty dollars an
acre in late years, it will be seen that
the fund will be a large one by the
time the lands are all disposed Of, un-
less the state should enact legislation
to stop the sale of all such lands al
some time in the future, and use the
lease fund alone for support of the
schools.
