Deafness Cannot Be Cured


by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion Of
the ear, There Is only one way to
cure deafness, and that Is by consti-
tutional remedies. Deafness Is
caused by an innamed condition Of
the mucous lining Of the Eustochian
Tube. When this tube Is innamed
you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when 1t Is en-
tirely closed, deafness Is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
Its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever nine cases out of
ten are caused by Catarrh, which Is
nothing but an innamed condition
Of the mucous surfaces,

Taft and procure his aid in the en-
terprise.
They propose to call the annex to
the Inauguration a patriotic celebration
but there are also to be Mardi Gras
features that will coax the dimes and
quarters from the rural guard. Fire
works, military parades and patriotic
professions made up of allegorical and
historical floats are among the allure
ments in contemplation. With the en-
dorsements of the organizations named
it is designed to press the matter in
congress.
An argument advanced in support
of the project is that under present
conditions Washington is placed at the
mercy of the weather of a single day.
1t is contended that this risk keeps
many persons from coming to the in
augrations but if they were assured
of full week of festivities their num-
Der would be increased many fold.

The Annual Waste of Straw.
(From Idaho Country Life

" lOli ludliO COulilly iAlCt
Every farmer should know that the
stem or straw that bears his ripened
grain comes in part from the black
vegetable mold in the solid and that
the black or brown color Of the soil
is good index of its power to grow
crops This discoloration is caused
by the annual growth and decay of
wild plants long before civilization be-
gan. Therefore any system of farm
ing which reduces this quantity will
result in diminishing yields.
What consideration then shall be
given the excess traw and stubble i'll
our fields? Let us give the question
some serious consideration. | the first
place this straw contains the clements
nitrogen which is necessary for plant
growth, but it is in an unavailable
form. Its decay however gives rise,
through bacterial action, to a form Of
nitrogen useful or available to plants.
Suppose this straw to be burned or
otherwise destroyed each year, what
will be the ultimate result? Reason
ing it out as follows we find that it
requires approximately two pounds
of nitrogen to produce bushel of
wheat, or one pound for each bushel
of oats with the necessary straw for
each A ffty-bushel crop Of wheat
or one bushels of oats will require one
hundred pounds Of nitrogen The
average amount of nitrogen in the
soils of this state will run from 1000
to 5000 pounds per acre foot. 1t is
estimated that by average methods of
cultivation ? per cent of this nitrogen
will be made available for plant food,
as ali nitrogen cannot be used by
plants This will mean from 40 to
100 pounds of nitrogen food per year,
which would be total loss to the soil
when the grain is removed and the
straw burned. In our best soils this
would be 1000 pounds loss in ten
years (one-fifth of the original amount
PRESENT., or a decrease Of ten bushels
of wheat, bushel Of wheat per year
What farmer can withstand such a
loss?
Dislling in the stubble after harvest
will approximately save rs per cent
Of the nitrogen after wheat and 80
per cent after oats. The presence of
this straw under favorable conditions
will enable the nitrogen fixing bacteria
Of the soil to manufacture a further
quantity of nitrogen food from the
air. Hence on one hand we have
destructive method and on the other
a legitimate and worthy system of
farming.
Don't burn your straw. If it is i'll
the stack spread it as manure.
