Government Will Have Big Whskey

Richmond, Va, April 24.-E'er

began making a certain remark TO
the Governor of South Craolina, Un,

Mexico City, April 25.-Notwith-

Difficult Scriptures on He'll.

A little Book selling at only ten

Notwithstanding up into the mil

information respecting the meaning or
the word He'll. 1t claims to demon
strate, both from the Hebrew and the
Greek of our Bible. that Hell Is NOi
n place of eternal torment. but merely
another name for the TOMB, the
GRAVE. THE STATE OF DEATH. It
affects to show that man was not re-
deemed from a far-off place of eternal
torture. but quotes the Scriptures prov
ing that he was REDEEMED from the
GRAVE at the cost of his Redeemer
LIFE and that the Scriptural Hope
both for tho Church and the World
is a resurrection hope based upon the
death and resurrection Of Jesus. The
book is certainly worth the reading

Railway Companies Must FORFEIT
Vast Area of Land to Government.

Portland, Ore, April 24.-Federal
Judge Charles e. Wolverton today
decided that the Southern Pacific
and the Oregon and California Rail-
way companies must forfeit to the
United States government about 200,
900 acres of land, which is valued at
s4O,O0O,O0O to 100000. The
case will probably be appealed.
Interpreting the act of Congress
granting the land as an aid to rail-
way construction the court held that
Congress intended that this land
should be sold to bona f1de settlers
in tracts not greater than $50 acres
to one individual and at price not
exceeding $3.50 an acre.
While deciding in favor Of the
government, Judge Wolverton decid'
ed against the five thousand indi
vidual intervenors in the case. He
held that they had acquired no righ
whatever, either by settling on The
land or by rendering the maximum
sums specified by the law. The eff
feet Of this portion of the decision
is that the lands cannot be procured
by any individual until the Presi
dent or Congress again opens then
to entry.

HEART RIGHT.
When He Quit Coffee.

Life Insurance Companies will no,
insure a man suffering from heart

Tho reason Is obvious.
This Is serious matter to the hus-

the heart trouble is caused by an I'M
expected thing and can be corrected II
taken in time and properly treated. A
man In Colorado writes:
II was a great coffee drinker TOR
many years. and was not aware OF the
injurious effects Of the habit till I
became a practical invalid, suffering
from heart trouble, Indigestion and
nervousness to an extent that made
me wretchedly miserable myself and
a nuisance to those who witnessed my
sufferings.
II continued to drink coffee, how
ever, not suspecting that it was the
cause of my ill-health, till on applying
for life insurance | was rejected on &C.
count of the trouble with my heart.
Then became alarmed. l found that
leaving off coffee helped me quickly, so
quit It altogether and having been
attracted by the advertisements Of
Postum | began its use.
THE change In my condition was re-
markabe. All my ailments vanished.
My digestion was completely restored.
my nervousness disappeared. and
most important of all, my heart stead
led down and became normal, and on

cows. In estimating the loss In hand
ling manure an average Of Is per cent
Of the total phosphoric acid of fresh
manure Is estimated to be lost before
1t reaches the field. This figure OF
10000 tons OF bran and other feeding
stuffs Is an estimate. as no reliable
statistics in this regard are avail
able. ..
1t Is plainly evident that in spite OF
the large quantity OF bran purchased
In Wisconsin for the feeding Of dairy
cattle. the loss Of phosphorus greatly
exceeds the gain. Only on the dairy
farm OF highest type Is the supply OF
phosphoric acid on the farm actually
maintained. As an illustration Of this.
consider the income and outgo Of phos-
phoric acid on dairy farm OF 100
acres, such as exists In the best dairy
sections Of southern Wisconsin. On
such a farm approximately eighty
acres will be under cultivation. while
twenty will be used In wild pasture.
wood lot and homestead 1t is esti-
mated that on such a farm the stock
consists of 20 mich cows. ten young
cattle, four horses and 20 hogs. An
average division of the crops on such
a farm would be as follows: Sixteen
acres OF clover. 16 acres of mixed
clover and timothy the second year:
Is acres OF tame pasture; 16 acres OF
corn, of which perhaps would be USED
half for silage and half for grain;
eight acres Of oats to be used az feed;
and eight acres of barley or other
grain to be sold.
Stock sold from such a farm annual
lY would include on the average. three
Eorn-out dairy cows. five head Of
steers or their equivalent Of veal
calves. and 20 hogs. The concentrated
feeding stu1s purchased would be ap-
