afford to risk his crop for so small a
saving. The best seed that can be
obtained is one too good, and any
thing short of this Is not good bust
ness. Without highly viable seed of a
good strain, true to type. the best
results cannot be expected.
Cabbage is a crop which is grown
by every market gardener located
within wagon-hauling distance Of an
important center of consumption. The
statistics of the distribution of the
cultivation Of the cabbage clearly indi-
cate the fact that this is one of the
most important crops grown by
market gardeners.
The counties near each of the i'm
portant centers of population of the
United States are almost universally
credited with a considerable acreage
of cabbage, thus showing that the
gardeners of these regions have given
considerable attention to the produc-
tior of this crop.

CURE THAT SORE THROAT

Sore throat is inflammation of the
mucous membrane of the throat, and
If this membrane happens to be at all
sensitive a predisposition to sore
throat will exist.
Paxtine Toilet Antiseptic is both a
preventative and a cure for sore
throat because it possesses extraor-
binary cleansing, healing and germi-
cidal qualities. Just a little in a glass
of water, used as a gargle, will quick
1y relieve all and strengthen
the mucous membrane of the throat,
and thus overcome all tendency to
sor throat.
Paxtine is far superior to liquid an
tiseptics or Peroxide for all toilet and
hygienic uses.
Paxtine may be obtained at n
drug store, rs and Soc a box, or sent
postpaid upon receipt of price by The
Paxton Toilet Co., Boston, Mass.

is visible for many miles, and hum
dreds of people came from adjacent
cities in Illinois to view and admire it.
Should this work weather we'll and
preserve it's fine contour and lines, Mr..
Taft thinks it is probable 1t will mark
an era in the erection of statuary in
REINFORCED concrete.
On leaving the grove which bordered
the roadway climbing the bluffs, the
statue appeared in its majesty on the
bank of the river. There was no un-
yelling, as Mr.. Taft wished the first
sight of the monument to be one of it's
entire majesty.
Below, midstream, lies Margaret Full
ler's island, sacred to the memory of
Madam de Ossoli, the poetess who
once lived here. Two miles distant,
beyond the oak groves, rise the spires
of Oregon. Mr.. Taft's other works, the
Indian "Paducah" In the city of that
name in Kentucky and 1.-THE Eternal
Silence" the Graves monument in
Graceland cemetery, Chicago, have a
similar feeling Of majesty to that of
his latest creation.

BLACK HAWK STATUE
dorado Taft's Monument to
Vanishing Race.
Red Man, Towering Over Valley Lona
Indians Sole Property, Seems
Leaving the Site Reluctantly
Made of Concrete.

Oregon, Il.-With impressive cere-
monies the statue of the famous Indian
chief Black Hawk was dedicated at
Eagle Nest camp, the summer colony
Of Chicago artists and writers, near
here. The statue of the great chief
tain Is the work Of dorado Taft and
stands on a 200-foot bluff across the
river from the town and just outside
the limits of the camp. Among the
members of the party at the dedica-
ton were some of the best known Of
Chicago's artists, sculptors and writer's.
Edgar A. Bancroft was the principal
speaker and presented the statue to
the people of Illinois. Responses were
made by DR.. Charles C. Eastman and
Miss Laura M. Cornelius.
The statue of Black Hawk occupies
a position on the highest point in
Rock river valley. 1t is mammoth in
size-being AZ feet Highland repre-,
sents the work of four years. 1t is
built of concrete and is expected to be
a permanent monument to the red men
who once roamed this section. The
facial lineaments are Of Black Hawk,
but the sculptor's idea was to make
the statue typical of the vanishing
North American Indians.
The figure of Black Hawk Is repre-
sented girt in a blanket, reluctantly
leaving the valley which served his
tribe as council grounds long before
the white man came to this continent.
This remarkable statue, which is
made of REINFORCED concrete by a new
process, is itself imposing, and has
been placed upon a rock 200 feet above
the water, the highest point in the pic
turesque Rock river valley. The statue

Charles H. Wilson of Troy, N. Y,
occupies the unique position of having
been In business in one building for II
years, at least he will have completed
II years in the shoe business at 242-
PA River street August IL next. This
record, it is believed, can be equaled
by few if any shoe retailers in this
country. Mr.. Wilson has also been in
business for himself for more than SO
years. Mr.. Wilson is today just as
much in active business as he was al
most three-quarters of a century ago,
when as a thirteen-year-old lad he en-
tered the employ of John Leonard
Williams of Troy. To be exact, that
was August IL, 1910. MI. Williams
kept a shoe store at 242-244 River
street in a building which had been
erected in 1903, and SO the building
now occupied by Mr.. Williams for his
retail shoe business Is one Of the old
est buildings in Troy.

NOR A "FULL-LENGTH" PAPA
Child Wanted Original of Portrait That
Had Been Made So Familiar
to Her.

An amusing incident is related Of
a young service matron who had re-
linquished her husband for two years
and who, having before his departure
insisted on a good photograph, applied
herself assiduouly to the upbringing
of her ~two-year-old baby with a view
to the child's familiarity with her dis.
tinguished father. Each day she would
call the baby girl to her and, kneeling
beside her, would hold up the photo
graph, pointing out each feature to
the child.
One day the officer came home, and
the baby girl, theL four years old,
was summoned. Come, DEAR said
the mother in glee, papa has come
home at last!" The child surveyed
the officer in perplexity and finally
shook her head.
''What is the matter, dear?" asked
her mother. Well" replied the child,
"he looks something like my papa, but
my papa hasn't any legs!"

A vegetable must have plenty of

gin to prepare some spare ground for
the growing of roots and other green
feeds for winter feeding of the stock.
The garden soil is too expensive ma
terial to lie idle for half the growing
season when it is capable of pro-
ducing large crops through all the
growing season.
A definite, properly planned rota-
ton of crops is perhaps more benefi-
cial in potato growing than with any
other crop, and in this rotation clover
should play an important part.
Never cultivate your land deep.
Shallow and frequent cultivation is
always best. Make the top soil as fine
as possible.

bushels more corn to the acre and less

FALSE HUNGER
A Symptom of Stomach Trouble Cor.
rected by Good Food.

There is, with some forms of stom-
food which is frequently mistaken for
a good appetite" A lady teacher
writes from Carthage, Mo-, to ex-
plain how with good food she dealt
with this sort of hurtful hunger.
Il have taught school for fifteen
years, and up to nine years ago had
good, average health. Nine years ago,
however, my health began to fail,
and continued to grow worse steadily,
In spite of Doctors prescriptions, and
everything l could do. During all this
time my appetite continued good, only
the more l ate the more / wanted to
eat-I was always hungry.
1.-THE first symptoms of my break
down were a distressing
and a loss of flesh. The nervousness
grew so bad that finally it amounted to
actual prostration. Then came stom-
ach troubles, which were very painful,
constipation which brought on piles,
dyspepsia and severe nervous head
aches.
"The doctors seemed powerless to
help me, said l was overworked, and
at last urged me to give up teach
ing, if / wished to save my life.
But this / could not do. l kept on
at it as well as / could, each day grow
ing more wretched, my willpower
alone keeping me up, till at last a
good angel suggested that l try a diet
of Grape-Nuts food, and from that
day to this l have found it delicious
always appetizing and satisfying.
6" owe my restoration to health to
Grape-Nuts. My weight has returned
and for more than two years l have
been free from the nervousness, con-
stipation, piles, headaches, and all the
ailments that used to punish me SO,
and have been able to work freely and
easily" Name given by Postum Co.,
