Necessity of Careful Selection.
Very much more depends upop
your selection than you now realize
Will your selection result in good
water for your family and fertile
soil for your tillage? If the soil Is
fruitful enough, four days labor each
week may yield you a bountiful and
sufficient harvest, but If 1t is less re.
sponsive to your efforts, and requires
six days to make it respond, you have
by the poorer selection, added fifty
per cent to your burden of toll, rob-
bed yourself of the days needed for
rest and recreation, and added to the
toll of your children and all who NAV

THREE VESSELS GO
/ DOWN IN FIVE DAYS
Loss of Whaler Olga Due to the
Captains Disregard of
Warnings

NOME, Alaska, Oct. 27.-Three yes
sells, the steam whaler Olga, the tug
Defiance and a barge. were lost in the
storm which ragged on Bering sea and
adjacent waters during the last five
days The steamship Senator and the
schooner Duxbury, which were report
ed in great danger, sought refuge be-
hind S1edge island and safely wealth
cred the storm.
The loss of the whaler Olga is at
tributed to the failure of Captain Will
liam Mogg, its owner, to listen to the
warnings of the residents A week
before the storm Captain Mogg beached
his schooner for the winter He was
warned by the people living in the
vicinity that his vessel would be in
great danger in the event of a gale
from the southeast. Despite these
warnings Captain Mogg did not move
the Olga, and when the storm broke
his craft was pounded to pieces by the
heavy seas that swept over her as she
lay on the beach. There was no one
aboard her at the time.
The launch Defiance broke from her
anchorage and was swept ashore, a
complete wreck. Three small boats of
the mosquito feet were also carried
ashore but were not damaged A heavy
barge, however. was completely de-
molished when it broke loose from its
moorings and was thrown upon the
beach.
The storm was one of the worst that
has been experienced here in years.

WHIskEY FOR LAME BACK
Unusual Prescription by Renowned
Physician is Producing Won
derfu1 Results

The increased use of whiskey for
lame back and rheumatism is causing
considerable discussion among the med
ical fraternity. 1t is an almost infalli-
BILE cure when mixed with certain other
ingredients and taken properly. The
following is the formula:
"To one half pint of good whiskey
add zone ounce of Toris, compound and
one ounce syrup Sarsaparilla COM
pound. Take in tablespoonful doses
before each meal and before retiring .
Any druggist has these ingredients
and they are easily mixed.
Not only will this formula promptly
relieve the muscular pains but it also
makes one of the most effective system
builders known to- the profession for
all persons of failing strength, espe-
ciaiIy the decline caused by age 1t
will eventually restore full physical
vigor.

HELENA, Ark, Oct. 27.+President
Tafts river schedule went all to
pieces today owing to the inability of
the vessels following his flagship, the
Oleander, to maintain the designated
speed.
The president delayed his arrival in
Memphis three hours in order that the
boat carrying the 26 governors and the
III congressman as we'll as other yes
ways convention in New Orleans might
land at the same time.
Leaving Memphis an hour and half
late, the Oleander had to press for
ward at top speed to reach here at 8
D. M, two hours behind the scheduled
time. Leaving here nearly three
hours late tonight the president viii
not reach Vicksburg until o'clock to-
morrow night, that being his next stop.
Taft received a noisy welcome in
Memphis In his address at the Audi
torium the president declared that
such commercial advantages as the
Mississippi river already afforded were
not being taken advantage of.
The president is still very hoarse and
1t was with great effort that he spoke.
Congress has the power to improve
the riverways" he said. They have
spent much money, but have not en-
tered into general plans. We all realize
that If we do anything effectively and
economically it must be a general plan.
If it is proven practical I believe it
We ought to treat it like we have
treated the Panama canal issue, but
not in a piecemeal. Let us center on
