SOLVING A GREAT PROBLEM
Farmer Does not Receive All the Bene- fit of High Prices Paid for
 Agricultural Products.

In the general discussion over the recent high-living cost the farmer is spoken of as being largely responsible for it, and as making money at the inconvenience and cost of the con- sumer. This is not at all fact. While it is true that a few agricultural products have been excessively high in value-as beef, pork, eggs (for six months of the year., butter and fruit the farmer has not received too much for these when his large labor cost and other higher costs of con- ducting his business are understood, writes George T. Powell in the Coun- try Gentleman.
 It is after food products leave the farm that the cost is put upon the consumer The distribution of prod ucts is too expensive The farmer receives from F to 3A cents a quart for milk. The consumer pays to 10 cents a quart. The farmer receives 50 cents a bushel for potatoes, the consumer pays s1.25 bushel for them He receives S2.50 barrel for his apples, while the consumer pays at the rate of S9 a barrel It costs the consumer on an average of 60 per cent. over what the farmer receives, and this is what the middle-man gets for receiving and distributing farm

Varyinu Prices of Lobsters.

Lovers of lobster ought to get a lot of comfort out of a recent paragraph in the famous old Kennebec Journal, which says that the crustacean are dirt cheap However, the Journal adds, they are not as low in price as in the old days, when they sold six fer % cents, but the price has fallen to 16 cents pound, which is decidedly different from the figures that were being quoted early in the spring. Then they were being bought alive for 50 cents pound from the fishermen, and the price in Boston and New York scared to so cents a pound, and, in some cases, beyond"

CONSERVATION OF THE SOIL

 What the South Needs.

 Conservation is discussed by many speakers and writers at the present time The conservation of timber. coal and so on, means holding onto what we have and should receive the attention of all thinking people.
 The greatest asset of the south is not the timber, the coal. iron, nor the water powers. The greatest asset of any nation is the soil fertility Our forests may be wasted and new for ests will soon take their place, but if the plant food in the soil is removed by cropping or by washing the results will be fearful A poor soil will not grow crops Small yields means poor people.

A SPOON SHAKER. Straight From Cofeeedom.

Coffee can marshall good squadron of enemies and some very hard ones tc overcome. A lady in Florida writes:
 T have always been very fond of good coffee, and for years drank it at least three times day. At last, how ever, I found that it was injuring me
 T became bilious, subject to ire quent and violent headaches, and SC very nervous, that I could not lift a spoon to my mouth without spilling a part of its contents.
 My. heart got 'rickety' and beat SC fast Md so hard that could scarcely breathe, while my skin got thick and dingy, with yellow blotches on my face caused by the condition of my liver and blood
 T made up my mind that all these affiictions came from the coffee, and determined to experiment and see.
 "So l quit coffee and got a package of Postum which furnished my hot morning beverage. After little time was rewarded by complete restora tion of my health in every respect.
 q do not suffer from biliousness any more, my headaches have disappeared my nerves are as steady as could be desired, my heart beats regularly and my complexion has cleared up beauti fully-the blotches have been wiped out and it is such a pleasure to be well again.

A trial package of Munyon's Paw Paw Pills will be sent free to anyone on re- quest Address Professor Munyon, 53d & Jefferson Sts, Philadelphia, Pa. If you are in need of medical advice, do not fail to write Professor Munyon. Your communi- cation will be treated in strict confidence, and your case will be diagnosed as care fully as though you had a personal inter- view.
 Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike all other laxatives or cathartics. They coax the liver into activity by gentle methods. They do not SCOUT. they do not gripe, they do not weaken, but they do start all the secretions of the liver and stomach in way that soon puts these organs in a healthy condition and corrects constipation. In my opinion constipation is responsible for most ail ments. There are 26 feet of human bowels, which is really a sewer pipe. When this pipe becomes clogged the whole system becomes poisoned, caus- ing biliousness, indigestion and impure blood, which often produce rheumatism and kidney ailments. No woman who suffers with constipation or any liver ailment can expect to have a clear complexion or enjoy good health. If I had my way I would prohibit the sale of nine-tenths of the cathartics that are now being sold for the reason that they soon destroy the lining of the stomach, setting up serious forms of indigestion, and so paralyze the bowels that they re- fuse to act unless forced by strong purgatives.
 Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are a tonic to the stomach liver and nerves. They invigorate instead of weaken; they en- rich the blood instead of, impoverish it; they enable the stomach to get all the nourishment from food that is put into it.
 These pills contain no calomel, no dope; they are soothing, healing and stimulating. They school the bowels to act without physic.
 Regular size bottle, containing 45 pills. 9 cents. Munyon's Laboratory, Sd q Jefferson Sts.. Philadelphia.

 It is not at all necessary for us to stop growing other crops in order to grow legume every year. A crop of corn and peas can be grown on the same land in one year. A crop of cotton and peas. peanuts or crimson clover can be grown on the same land in one year. Tobacco, sugar cane. rice and potatoes may be grown on the same land with legume every year. These crops can be lad by with legume or vetch or some clover can be sown after the crop is removed.

BLACK TEETH.

Very often young pigs kaye, when farrowed what is known as black teeth. These are two long black teeth which occur on each side of the upper and lower jaw respectively. Very often these teeth are SD long and sharp that they injure the udder of the SOW to such an extent that she becomes restless and often times will not allow the pigs to suckle at all, and the pigs in striving to secure the bca$ place at the udder of the SOW do considerable fighting and in so doing strl,re their jaws together causing sores on the jaws in which dirt ant dlaease germs collect, causing trouble which if not speedily remedied means the death of the pig. To avoid the trouble caused by teeth they should be clipped off with a pair of shears Aa spon as the pigs are farrowed.

According to MT. Herbert w. Fisher in Worlds Work food is of no use to us unless we enjoy it Mir Fisher does not, however, recommend us to be gluttons.

gun. When the play began the weapon
was not loaded. After a time the boy,
unobserved by his sister, secured a
loaded shell from his fathers hunting
coat and placed it in the gun. He then
told his sister to shoot, and when she
did so the load entered the boys face
near the mouth, killing him instantly.

spectacle, hastened to the home Of
