 There is more Catarrh In this sec ton of the country than all other dis eases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be in curable. For a great many years doc tors pronounced 1t local disease an prescribed local remedies, and by con stantly failing to cure with local treat ment, pronounced 1t incurable. Scienc has proven catarrh to be constltu- tional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Halls Ca tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the mar ket. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucou surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case 1t fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials.

We had tO strap him down in bed, for he used tO tear himself drCadfully in his sleep. The agony he went through k quite beyond words. No one thought We would rear him. Tho rcglmental doctor, very clever man, pronounced the case hopeless; at least, he said the only hope was that he might, II he lived long enough, OutCrOw it to some extent. We had him in hospitals four times and he was pronounced one of the worst cases. if not the worst, ever admitted. From each he was dis charged as inCurablc; in fact he got worse under the successive treatments. At one hospital they incased him in plaster. and this seemed to aggravate the soreness terribly. He looked so badly that no one liked to go near him and his life was a burden to him. We kept trying remedy after remedy. but we had got almost past hoping for cure. Six months ago we purchased a set of CutiCura Soap, Ointment, and RcSulvcnt Pills and perSevercd with them.

Prices Firm at Beginning of
Week, Then Take De-

Not since the beginning of the year
have iuct ctuations in the veal and calf
market been as sudden as they were
last week. This factor bids fair to char
acterize prices on this class Of live stock
throughout the present week.
During the first part OF last week.
prices were high and unusually firm on
veal and lambs. but Friday and Satur-
day saw slump. Generally speaking,
shippers had little to go by concerning
the probability of prices on live stock.
With this as the situation promised
for this week. about the only thing
shippers can do is to get their stock
to the market, when it is IN good con-
dition, and take chance on the prices
they will get for it.
Continued heavy production Of butter
Is expected. with a tendency toward
lower prices. There Is every prospect
OF fancy creamery going SIS low as Is

APPLES 4 PROFITABLE CROP.

Tho experiences of Mr.. Holmes Of
Charlotte and of various other sue
cessful producers Of apples in Yer
mont have alrdcay been noted in
these columns, but It should not be
inferred by any means that these re-
suits are exceptional or confined TO
the Green Mountain state. Word
comes from the state of Washington
that some Of the producers Of apples
there have also experienced crafty
ing results.
It is stated that in the Wenatchee
valley. in central Washington, l.. W.
Smith has one acre of orchard which
will net 5000 this season. The trees.
nine years old, are Of the Winosap
variety. His holding is confined to
four acres of bearing trees, which
yielded $685. worth of fruit in 1908
and $4,000 worth the previous sea
son. He has 100 trees bearing Wine
saps, which will yield from IL to II
boxes of 30 pounds each; "A trees of
Arkansas Blacks. averaging 70 boxes
each; 40 Mammoth Black Twgs, each
cropping from 10 to II boxes and 40
srees bearing Ben Davis apples,
which will yield not less than five
boxes each.
There are said to he numerous
Jmall orchards III the same valley
which made relatively good showings,
but nona SO high as the smith tract.

valley also repor; exceptionally large

SEWAGE, DISPOSAL.

The Rutland Herald touches upon a
vital question when it says: "The
city OF Vorgennee. which takes its
watar supply from Otter Creek. IS
naturally exercised over the typhoid
situation in Rutland, the sewage from
which is discharged into the stream.
Rutland sympathizcs with its sister
sufferer ana is doing it's best to clean
up"
Not many years ago the Vermont
State board of health took drastic
measures TO force Tie city Of Yer
gcnnes to improve It's water supply.
and Vermonts oldest city in common
with others has devoted large sum
~ money to the task Of meeting mod
orn requirements in this connection.
Is 1t simple justice to Vergonucs
10 say nothing of other communities
and general sanitation TO allow Eut-
land to discharge It's sewage into tine
source of the Ncrgcnr"s water sup-
ply? The world has had good AUTHOR
lily for ages for tho statement that
the fountain must be pure if the
stream flowing thorelrom Is to hc
kept sweet and clean. and this is just
as true now as it was ages ago. TITO
water I'm Otter Creek at Verrannoe
cannot be kept fit for drinking pur-
poses. If Rutland discharges sewage
with typhoid and other germs into the
stream a number Of miles toward the
source thereof, and the same thing IS
true Of Lake Champlain into which
otter Creek empties Its waters, good
and bad.
This statement with reference TO
Rutland and otter Creek applies with
equal force to other places in tho
Stotc similar situated and engaged IN
Dumping sewage into streams which
enter Lake Champlain or other bodies
of water used for domestic purposes
as we'll as to Burlington and other
places whose scwor discharge direct

PRESENTS FOR PRESIDENTS.
4 Return to Quaint Gifts Of Former
Days.

(From the Cleveland Plain Dealer)
The report that President TAFT has
already been inundated with curious
aud extraordinary presents. rams cling
from prize pumpkins and home made
pickles to COW. ana pigs, sent to him
by adniring farmers in the various
States. reminds one that Mr.. Rooso-
volt hns been able to stock q minia-
ture ZOO at oyster Bay with animals
which persons interested in the bis
game hunting trips sent as gifts.
Embarrassing though these presents
may have been. however. It is doubt
ful II they caused more perplexity
and trouble TO the recipients than the
mammoth cheeses which 1t was the
practice at one time TO send Ameri-
can presidents. and In her interesting
work "The Story OF the White House"
Esther Singleton gives an amusing ac-
count Of cheese sent to President
Jackson ny dairy farmer Of Oswego
county. who wanted TO bring the excel
cnce Of the dairy products Of his neigh
borhood prominently into notice.
This particular cheese was over four
feet in diameter, two feet thick and
weighed 100 pounds In order to get

pounds The whole atmosphere Of every

ed with the odor. We have met it at
every turn-the halls OF the capitol have
been pcrfumed with It from the mem
hers who partook Of IT, having carried
away great masses In their coat pock-
cts " There can he no doubt however,
that the astute dairy farmer was imbu-
cd with n rare genius fo- advertising.
But 10 pounds less in weight was the
cheese sent to President Jefferson at the
beginning Of last century from Cheshire,
Mass. in wagon drawn by six horses.
and bearing the label. The greatest
cheese in America for the greatest man

exceedingly shy Of accepting any gifts.
and insisted on paving for the cheese,
