Rheumatic
Pains

MY mother is a great suf-
ferer from rheumatism, and DIR.
Miles Anti Pain Pills is the only
remedy that relieves her."
MRS. G.. DAVENPORT,
Royce6eld, N. ].
The pains of rheumatism are
almost invariably relieved with
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills. They
also overcome that nervous irri-
tation which prevents sleep be-
cause they soothe the nerves. To
chronic suffers they are invalu-
able. When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and
save the weakening influence OF
pain, which so frequently pros
trates. Many sufferers use them
whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, why
not you? They do not derange
the stomach nor create a habit.
Why not try them? Get a pack
age from your druggist. Take it
according to directions, and if
it does not benefit he will return
your money.

HOW SMALL FARMS
ARE MADE To PAY
How Energy and Industry Can
Work q Miracle Out OF
the Soil.

The wonderful story of how
young Francis Sestier made farm
Ing pay in far Iowa given by the
Post-Dispatch is as follows:
The most sensational disclosure
to agrlculturalists has just been
made by Francis Seister of Des
Moines, who has made $4,000 of
permanent improvements on a
32-acre farm in the past seven
years and paid for it all from the
products of that soil. 1t is a
demonstration of what application
will do.
Francis Sestier is the son of
Francis Sestier, a stonecutter,
who came to Des Monies in 1873
to work on the State Capital.
But stonecutting is unhealthy
business and one day he bought a
farm within sight of the golden
dome of the Statehouse he had
helped to cut and struggled along
for years paying off mortgages and
rearing a family. Seven years ago
he died and young Francis took
the active management. 1t is be
who has worked the miracle of
the soil.
Francis turned the farm into
truck garden, which is now said
to be the finest of its kind west of
the Mississippi River.
Among the permanentimprove-
ments built and paid for from
this small farm since 1901 are an
IS, 200 house, under which is a
modern cold storage plant, a
steam pumping plant that draws
water from the river, a half mile
away. and lifts it 145 feet into
a monster reservoir; eight greer
houses. ~-s-zs.szs
Mr.. Sestier by his management
is making his farm yield a gross
income of $500 to $500 per acre.
Like every successful man. Mr..
Sestier can handle something's
better than others. Tomatoes
seem to be his favorIte crop. He
introduced the method of raising
tomatoes on poles and plants
5000 vines per acre, getting a
yield of $50 bushels of perfect
fruit that brings the highest
price. He makes as much
as $4,000 on lettuce in a year.
Such figures for a 32-acre farm
in Iowa are sensational, to say the
least, especially when they are
made by a boy who knew nothing
of agriculture and who never
attended an agricultural college.
The demonstration of Mr.. Ses-
tier of the truck value of Iowa is
threatening to turn the tide of
corn AMI hog raising in Iowa to
that of truck gardening, for Iowa,
unlike other favorite states, is
close to market for such goods.
Corn ralsers think they have done
we'll to get profit of $12 to the
acre.
