The French gardener makes his soil.
Now the scientist is showing the way
to make soil by machinery.
One of the ablest students of the
Paris gardens is the famous Russian
scientist, Peter Kropotkin. In his
book, Fields, Factories and Work
Shops he deals with them at
length, and draws the following con-
clusiOn:
If we take all into consideration;
if we realize the progress made of
late in the gardening culture, and
the tendency toward spreading it's
methods to the open field; if we
watch the cultural experiments which
are being made now-experiments
today and realities tomorrow-and
ponder over the resources kept in
store by science we are bound to
say it is utterly impossible to fore
see at the present moment the limits
as to the maximum number of hu-
man beings who could draw their
means of subsistence from given
area of land or as TO what variety
of produce they could advantageous
ly grow in any latitude"

KEEP THE KIDNEYS WE'LL.
Health Is Worth Saving, and Some
Dawson People Know How
to Save 1t.

Many Dawson people take their
lives in their hands by neglecting the
kidneys when they know these or
gans need help. Sick kidneys are
responsible for a vast amount OF sut-
fering and i'll health, but there is no
need to suffer nor to remain in dan
ger when all diseases and aches and
pains due to weak kidneys can be
quickly and permanently cured by
the use of Doan's Kidney Pills. inc
following statement leaves no ground
for doubt.

World. Success Seems Certain

DALLAS, Tex-Dfd you ever fig
ure on the total value OF the cotton
crop of the world? It's one and one
fourth billion dollars. Put that into
the finished product and you have
a value of five billion dollars. The
average cost of picking this cotton
is 60 cents per 100 pounds for the
seed cotton. 1t takes three pounds
of seed cotton to make one of lint,
so that it will average far up in the
millions to pick the cotton crop this
year.
Suppose you substitute for this
method of picking one whereby a
single machine can pick an acre an
hour, one machine doing the work Of
twelve men? That would be a con-
siderable saving, and would allow
more territory being devoted to this
industry. This is what it is said the
Price-Campbell cotton picker can do

Machine SraddIes Cotton Row.
This new machine straddles the
cotton row as it goes over it, reaches
out it's long arms of genius, gathers
the staple of the south and sends
it back to the waiting basket. In
doing so it saves an enormous
amount of manual labor, as each cot
ton picker, according to statistics,
picks one-fourth of an ounce as he
goes over the cotton.

PARALYzED FORTY TIMES.
Charles NJ. Forbes at Last Dies al
the Age of so Years.

Dying at the age of 60 years
Charles M. Forbes had been stricken
by paralysis forty times, says an AL
toona, Pa, dispatch. He sustained
the first stroke when Is months old,
and was an invalid through his life
time. The case is one of the most
remarkable in medical annals.
Forbes attack of infantile paraly-
sis left him without the use of his
lower limbs. At intervals in his life
he sustained additional strokes, but
each time partially recovered, and it
was not until ten years ago that he
became a helpless invalid.
He moved around his home by
creeping. He never learned to speak
other than the words that a baby
would use, and all his day he was
as a child. He comprehended keenly
all conversation addressed to him.

WEIGHTS AND MEASURES
Protects the Poor and the Ignorant Is
Suggested, but How?

New Orleans States: The American
public would like to know how far the
practices discovered by the commission
er of weights and measures in New
York obtain in other cities, because it
is very suggestive record that Com
missioner Driscolf has compiled as the
result of his Investigations of the New
York retail trade. He has discovered
that baskets and boxes with double bot
toms are numerous; that dents purpose
1y made in tin measures materially les
sen the contents; that nails driven
through wooden baskets are used exten-
sively in the sale of vegetables; that
blocks of wood and wads of paper are
placed i'll the bottoms of berry baskets,
and that small cons are placed inside of
the large ones.
He discovered also that many scales
begin business at the one pound mark
instead of at the cipher, and that all
sorts of devices are in operation to get
the consumers money under false pre-
tensese. Ii. one case Mr.. Driscoll found
a Ioo-pound weight that had been drilled
full of holes and the holes filled with
cork, which in turn was waxed over in
such a way as to defy discovery except
by the most minute inspection. It is
reasonable to assume that these dishon-
est devices are more common in New
York than in other cities for the reason
that there are more poor people there
than in any other American community
The dwellers in the slums are the chief
victims of the short weight swindlers
as well as the greatest sufferers from
adulteration because they are too ignor-
ant to protect themselves. Therefore
the care and protection of the poor and
ignorant is becoming an increasing func
tion of government in our cities.

FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE. THE
MOST FAMOUS NURSE.

New Orleans Picayune Aug. IS: The
death in London yesterday of Florence
Nightingale, at the age of So years,
closed the record of the first and most
famous of the female army nurses in
time of war.
Miss Nightingale, born of a wealthy
and prominent English family, and bril-
hantly educated, became at the age of
is years impressed with the need for
nurses of high character and proper
training for hospitals, and she resolved
to qualify herself. She studied with
the Protestant deaeonesses in Germany
and with the Catholis Sisters of St.
Vincent de Paul in France
In 1854 the Crimean War, between
England. France, Sardinia and Turkey
on one side, and Russia on the other,
broke out, and Miss Nightingale went at
once to the military hospitals in Con-
stanfinople, and afterwards to the hos
pitfalls at the seat of war in the Crimea.
It was the first advent of female nurse
among the sick and wounded in the hos
pitals near the battle fields, and she
wrought great changes in that import
ant service in the direction of alleviat-
ing the privations and sufferings under
such conditions
Miss Nightingale became famous as
an authority on military and other hos
pitals. It was on her advice that the
Red Cross Society was formed She
received many and valuable testimonials
for her great services in alleviating the
sufferings of the inmates of military
and civic hospitals.

T. 6. ANDERSON
A Saloon Man and a Politician Greater
Than the Law.

I. c. Anderson is a member of the
Legislature from New Orleans, where
he is one of the Bosses. He is a saloon
man, and having great Influence has re-
peatedly snapped his fingers in contempt
at law.
A few days since he was cited to ap-
pear before Judge Aucion, being charged
with violation of law The evidence was
brief but positive 1t was proven by the
witnesses that they had obtained beer
and cigarettes, one being minor, in
the Anderson saloon. The case was dis
missed by Judge Aucion on the pre-
tense that the ownership of the saloon
had not been proven, Notwithstanding
the fact that the district attorney pro-
duced the license in the name of Ander-
son.
This decision by Judge Aucion is a
travesty and an insult to the intelligence
of the people. However, such decision
is not surprising since Anderson has a
pull and in a sense he is possessed Of
power It is such fragrant, contemptu-
Gus disregard of the law with the courts
abetting which viii strengthen the op-
position to the saloon and the trafickers
in intoxicants. 1t is comforting to re-
feet that such influence as that of An
derson and others of his ilk will not
always predominant in New Orleans.
There will be day of reckoning, and
then look out
