TABLOID BEER IN KANSAS.
HOW THE THIRST PROBLEM HAS
BEEN SOLVED OUT THERE.
Chemist Now Sells the Markings
of Six Gallons of Jagless Brew
For 20 Cents.

Chemist Now Sells the Markings"
of Six Gallons of Jagless Brew
For "a Cents.
TOPEKA, Kan.-The sale, barter,
or giving away of intoxicating liquor
is absolutely prohibited in Kansas.
No spirituous, malt or fermented
liquors can be sold in the state. But
there is a near beer factory here in
Topeka, the capital of the state.
c. A. Eklund is the chap who has
discovered a way to beat the law.
Also he is able to beat the govern
ment internal revenue laws. He dis
covered the scheme whereby a man
could be his own brewer and make
his own beer if he deemed it nee
essary to have some of it. Eklund
makes a beer tablet, one of which
will go into the vest pocket, and
when properly treated the tablet will
make six gallons of beer, nice, foam
ing amber fluid that tastes and acts
like beer.
Eklund worked for many years in
a flavoring extract factory in the
east. Since coming to Kansas he
has, after much experimenting,
worked out a beer in tabloid form.
Topeka looks for new and wide fame
from this new sort of near beer, and
Eklund is the hero of the hour.
Tabloid beer is a broWnish look
ing tablet about the size of nickle
cut of plug tobacco, which it much
resembles. To make beer the tab
let is dissolved in water, little yeast
added and the whole is permitted to
stand few hours. Then it is beer.
Topeka men who have paid high
prices and express charges to have
beer brought to them say that the
beer tablet makes as good beer as
they can buy. A beer tablet at a
cost of % cents will supply all an
ordinary family desires for several
days, even if they have company,
while a sufficient quantity of the real
brew would 'set the old man back
several days wages. The beer is
said to have all of the qualities of
the real goods except that one can
drink the entire six gallons and not
become intoxicated. That, of course,
takes the seasoning from the soup
for some, but nevertheless it does
mighty we'll to relieve a terrible
thirst.

obtained the best results. This is
especially true for the dry year that
i this corn endured We have no
doubt that shallow cultivation with
some of the modern cultivatDrs
would have left a dust mulch worth
J several bushels of corn, especially at
the time of layipg-by. ,.9As.9 y.6, !
| These criticisms are not intended
in the sense of fault-finding, but to
point out to Mr.. Gasque and others
a possible way Of improving upon
his method another year. Id
Mr.. Gasque remarked to the writer
that he would have to do better an
other year if he wanted to hold the
palm, as he knew others were after
it. 1t is this healthy rivalry and
competition that constitutes the chief
value of these contests.
Marion County Going Forward.
That Marion county is rapidly
coming to the front in corn produc-
ton is very evident. Clemson Col
lege is now holding a three-day
farmers school at Mullins, and to-
day was devoted to the cultivation
and improvement of corn. About
twenty farmers brought tehir ten
best ears of corn to the school.
After a discussion of how to breed
and improve corn the instructor
went over each lot of corn, picking
out the best and the poorest ear.
The good and bad points of each
were then pointed out and discussed,
and if one is to judge by the interest
displayed it is safe to predict a very
much better grade of corn in this
county in the next few years.

NATURE MENDs A BROKEN NECK
Snapped Bone Grows Fast Again
After Two Years.

After two full years of balancing
between life and death with a broken
neck Isaiah Rosseau, a Fitchburg,
Mass, carpenter, has set at naught
ali predictions and is going to get
well. The carpenter for the first
time in "a months is sitting up and
even doing light work.
When injured it was found that
Rosseau's third cerevical vertebrae
had been snapped off close to the
column and the ligaments attached
to it torn. These ligaments held the
broken portion in an abnormal posi-
ton until the piece knit to the bone
of the main column. The physicians
foresaw the danger that would come
from this jointure, but were power
less to prevent it, because an oper-
alton would have been fatal.

BIGGEST HEN SHOW EVER.

No, Not Suffragettes; It's Real Barn
yard Hens That Are Meeting.
One of the greatest conventions of
hens ever held in the country has
just been held in the coliseum at st.
Louis, Mo. 1t was not a session of
suffragettes, but of real poultry,
Missoum's greatest surplus product,
which has an annual value of $44,-
100000.
Wednesday was set apart as Gov
ernor's Day, when Governor Hadley,
other state officials and members of
the legislature went to St Louis and
were given a reception by the poul-
try. Thursday was devoted to the
judges, and their awards produced
much dissatisfaction among the hens
which failed to land first prize
On Thursday the American Pou1-
try Association was honored by a
special day. Agricultural authori-
| ties from all over the central west
and southwest attended Friday. St
Louis Day was observed Saturday
and wound up the biggest hen show
ever attempted there. Statistics just
issued show that Missouri is the
greatest poultry show in the union.

In line with the desire for the i'm
provement of the corn of this state
a number of the most progressive
farmers dubbed together last spring
and offered a premium to the one of
their number who should make the
largest yield of corn per acre.
Only eight men followed the con-
test to a finish Many who expected
to enter dropped out. The premium
has just been awarded to Mr.. R. L.
Gasque of Marion, who gathered a
few pounds over one hundred and ten
bushels. Other yields and contest
ants We're e. Register, As bushels;
Jim Gasque, rs bushels; G. w. Rog-
ers, IS bushels; H. M Lane, rs bush
els, and T. L. Bruce, 72 bushels.
How MIR. Gasque Made 11O Bushels
Per Acre.
One hundred and ten bushels of
corn, while not the most remarkable
record is indeed good. But Mr.. Gas
que has even a better record. On
five acres of corn Mr.. Gasque reports
yield of $50 bushels.
This yield was made on land that
a few years back was considered al
most worn out During the preced-
ing year this land gave a good crop
of tobacco, and this tobacco was fol-
lowed with a crop of peas. 1t is
flat sandy land with the clay about Is
inches from the surface. The land
was broken in January with one
horse plow, and about March 10th
was bedded in six-foOt rows. April 1st
the corn was planted with planter.
April 18th the middles were broken
out and a small sweep run around
the corn. On May 10th one side OF
each row was fortified with 400
pounds of an 8-3-3 goods, and
week later this amount OF fertili-
ger was applied to the other side OF
the row. On June 9Th there was
again applied to one side of each row
100 pounds of nitrate of soda and
100 pounds of cotton seed meal and
one week later this same application
was made to the other side, when
the crop was laid-by by breaking out
the middles with a One-horse turn
ing pillow.
We have given Mr. Gasque's
method rather in detail, because the
value of these contests lies not so
much in the value of the corn OBJ
tanned, but in the knowledge OF how
that yield was obtained.
How MIR. Gasque May Improve His
Methods.
An examination of Mr.. Gasque's
methods, however, will suggest sew
eral improvements First, it is a
serious question if the soil would
mot have responded more literally
| had this land been broken earlier
and deeper, in the fall, with a two
horse plow. At the same time il
might have been sown in rye, and
this rye turned under in ample time
for the planting of corn. This would
have given an increased store OF
both plant food and vegetable mat
ter. thus insuring more moisture
which Mr.. Gasque states was quite
deficient for quite time
Used Turn Plow Too Much.
Then again, Mr.. Gasque has made
too free use of the turn plow to have

HOW TO KILL BLACK ROOT
SUGGESTION MADE BY A SOUTH
CAROLINA FARMER.
He Also Tells of Corn Meal as One of
the Best of Fertilizers. Has
Tried 1t Several Times.

A South Carolina farmer, writing
to the Augusta Chronicle. says:
Il see by the papers that there has
been a great deal said about black
root in cotton.
Il write to give my view from
close observation and long expe-
rience.
The causes are from continued
cropping the same land too long;
second, using the same fertilizer
every year; third breaking the land
too shallow and cultivating same
way.
How to stop the disease:
First remove all the old stalks
from the land, then break deep and
sow in small grain.
After the grain has been removed
break deep again and harrow; lay
off your land with a distributor with
a six-inch shovel attached; follow
with cotton planter, with board, and
chain off; cover with a two-tooth
cultivator; then cultivate shallow.
What fertilizer to use: 500
pounds of the following: Mixture,
200 pounds, "a acid, 200 pounds corn
meal (not cotton seed meaD, 100
pounds kainit.
IF you get the cotton by the 10th
of June you will make a good crop.
If you don't SOW small grain, break
the land early and rebreak in April
and plant last of May. Late cotton
is not so apt to the disease as early.
Change fertilizer every year. 1t
will be well also to change seed.
Don't run in the same old Tuts.
what I know about corn meal as
a fertilizer: After trying several
years l find one ton of corn meal
equal to one and one-half tons of
cotton seed meal"

Esq, Of Wagner who was in camp on
the shore. Mr. James hastily jump
ed into his boat and pulled for the two
men who were struggling in the wat

men were in an exhausted condi-
tion. On being brought to shore
these men vowed they would not get
gay" again on The lake. In addition
to their clothes gold watch, about
twenty five dollars in money and a
boat lay in the bottom of the lake and
they themselves had miraculous es-
cape from drowning.
