MAKING Butter.

To produce best butter the COW
should be a good, healthy animal, kept
on good pasture and supplied with
pure water The stable should be
clean at all times. especially during
milking The cream should be
churned at a proper time and tenn
perature, and worked until the milk
is all out l salt my butter with IL
ounces of salt to every ten pounds,
says a writer in Baltimore American
My customers pay 80 cents pound,
and come to the house to get their
supply, which is packed in five-pound
jars. This brings me more clear
money than any other way l can dis
pose of the produce. I make only 20
to- 80 pounds a week and use about
$50 drops of vegetable coloring mat
ter to 100 pounds.

all past estimates of young Rockefel-

that hereafter the Rockefeller millions
will no longer be a market factor. In

COLLAPSE OF WALL

tally Injured

Pittsburg, March 11.-Five men
were killed and seven more were
probably fatally injured by the col
lapse of a brick wall left standing in
the ruins of the fire which Tuesday
morning partly destroyed the manu-
featuring plant of M. LAM & Sons.
Twenty workmen, mostly foreigners,
who were at work razing the ruins
were buried under the wall
Without warning the wall, which
was over 100 feet long and fully fifty
feet high, buckled and crashed to the
ground. Five workmen caught on a
temporary scaffolding on the third
floor jumped to safety with slight in
juries. Two others we're rescued
badly bruised from a perilous position
astride another swaying wall by the
police. An hour after the accident
two workmen were found alive, but
crushed in a crevice between timbers
and brick piles. Not one of the score
of workmen escaped injury.

GERMS IN Her SYSTEM
Every Woman Should Read this Advice
and the Generous Offer that Goes
I With It.

The number of diseases peculiar
to women is such that we believe
this space would hardly contain a
mere mention of their names, and it
is a fact that most Of these diseases
are of catarrhal nature. A wo-
man cannot be well if there is a
trace of catarrh in her system.
Some women think there is no
help for them. We positively de.
clare this to be a mistaken idea.
We are so sure of this that we
offer to supply medicine absolutely
free Of all cost in every instance
where it fails to give satisfaction,
or does not substantiate our claims.
With this understanding, no woman
should hesitate to believe our hon
esty of purpose, or hesitate to put
our claims to test.
There is only one way to over
come catarrh. That way is through
the blood. You may use all the
snuffs, douches or like remedies for
years without getting more than
temporary relief at best. Catarrh
in general is a diseased condition of
the system that shows locally most
frequently in discharges from
mucous membranes. Local treat
ment should be assisted by internal
treatment for the general diseased
condition if a complete cure is to
be reached. That internal treatment
should be scientifically devised and
faithfully administered.
Rexall Mucu. Tone is scientifically
prepared from the prescription of an
eminent physician who for thirty
years made catarrh his specially.
This remedy is admirably adapted
to the treatment of the catarrhal
ailments of women. 1t purifies and
enriches the blood, tends to stop
discharges, aids in removing
impurities from the system, soothes,
heals and strengthens the mucous
tissues, and brings about feeling
of health and strength.
We want you to try Rexall Mucu-
Tone on our guarantee. IF you are
not benefited, or for any reason not
satisfied, simply tell us and we will
hand back your money. Rexall
Mucu-T Tone comes in two sizes, so
cents and $1.O0. Remember you
can obtain Rexall Remedies in Be-
midi only at our store, The Rexall
Store. Barker's Drug Store.

aged by the success which has met
their efforts at breaking into the ranks
of unorganized labor and persuading
several thousand workers in this city
to join the general strike movement
union labor leaders continued the
campaign to swell the army of sympa.
thizing strikers. Baldwin's locomotive
works, where 1900 men quit and which
was considered almost impregnable
against the attacks of unionism, was
again the object of much attention,
the labor leaders hoping to add to the
ranks of idle men before the close of
the day.
Success in penetrating Baldwin's
works is likely to lead to moves
against other large industrial plants
that are considered ''open shop
places.
The Central Labor union committee
of ten, which is conducting the general
strike, has given out figures to sup.
port the assertion that between 1885,
900 and 100000 persons are idle. The
exact total number of men, women,
boys and girls on strike as figured by
the committee is 1851.
The above figures are disputed by
the city authorities and large employ
ers. Officials of Baldwin's locomotive
works declare that only one-third of
the number of men the union asserts
are on strike quit work.
Aided by recruits obtained from
many other cities the transit company
operated more cars than on any day
since the strike was declared. The
few attacks made on the new crews
were not serious and were confined
to the outlying sections of the city
where nearly all disturbances since
the strike began have occurred.
