-FOUR DROWN WHEN
RAFT STRIKES FERRY BOAT.

Much CONSERVATION was felt at
Milanville last week, owing to the
various reports which came in, re-
garding the raft which was run
down the river by William Skinner
for Mitchell Bros. of Callicoon, hav-
ing run against the ferry near Bel
vedier, N. j., and overturning two
automobiles, which were on the
boat, and that four of the occupants
were drowned. Upon returning
home, Mr.. Skinner verified the re-
port as to the accident. His raft
had landed in what is known as
Alters Eddy when the disaster oc-
Cured. The water was unusually
high, and the ladies in the autos be-
came frightened because of the wa
ter coming in the ferry boat, which
was nearing the shore. The ferry
man lost his head and instead OF
pulling, which would have swung
them up the river, turned the boat
down. They struck the shore with
such tremendous force that the two
machines containing three ladies
and one child seven years old were
thrown in the river. The men were
saved, also one young lady who
jumped on to shore. The men on the
raft gave all possible assistance, and
the ladies rescued, but could not be
resuscitated. The ferryman was
held responsible for the accident.

PLAIN FACTS ABOUT TUBERCU
IOSTS

Right now more than forty thous-
and persons in Pennsylvania are suf-
fering from tuberculosis-ten thous-
and die every year. Consumptives,
through their sputum, scatter every
where billions upon billions of bacilli
(germs). Most people have breathed
into their lungs some of these germs.
AS long as you keep your body in
good physical condition and do not
associate too intimately with care
less consumptives, you are not likely
to contract this disease. But over
work, drink and dissipation, impure
air, unsanitary houses, poor and in
sufficient food, irregular hours, by
undermining your health, will allow
the germs of consumption to multi
ply and kill you with their poisons.
If you think you have the disease,
don't take patent medicines. There
is no medicine that will cure tuber-
culosis except plenty of open air,
good food, rest and regular hours.
The most evident symptoms of
tuberculosis are: cough lasting a
month or longer, loss Of weight, af-
ternoon temperature. night sweats,
splitting of blood, streaks of blood in
the sputum, rundown feeling.
tuberculosis is not inherited. OBJ
serve clean, healthy habits of life,
and you will have every chance of
escaping this disease.

FORMULA TO AVOID
SCALY POTATOES

The following receipt was given as
for the benefit of Wayne county
farmers. 1t was successfully tried
this season on the McKensey farm
in Sullivan county, n. Y, and the
potatoes were larger and better than
where the formula was not used. The
same seed potatoes were planted in
hill side by side. One was treated
to the solution, while the other was
not. AS consequence when dug
the treated seed potatoes grew large,
free-from-scale tubers, while its next
hill neighbors were small and scaly
Wayne county farmers cut out this
receipt, treat your seedlings to the
following solution and receive a big
ger and better crop of potatoes. The
formula given is for 25 bushels.
Clean the seed potatoes before
soaking them in solution consist
ing of one pint of formaldahyde
German Solution or Park-Davis) in
so gallons of water. Let the seed be
immersed in the mixture two hours,
not less. Remove, dry in the sun
and cut the eyes for planting, which
must be done the same day they are
treated. The seed which is treated
to the above solution takes a little
longer to germinate than those not SO
treated. When the plants are grow
ing spray them three times a month
with bordeaux solution.

COWLESS MILK WINS
PRAISE OF SCIENTISTS

London.-Synthetic milk is the
latest product OF the chemical lab
oratory. Several eminent scientists,
including Sir William Crookes, ex-
amined and tasted cowless milk at a
demonstration here recently and
pronounced it palatable.
The fluid, which is the discovery
of three German chemists, is made
at Frankfort-on-the-Main. 1t is the
same color as the animal liquid, and
the inventors claim that 1t is more
nourishing and more easily assimi-
lated than the cow product, and
non-tuberculous.
The method OF manufacture is kept
secret, but 1t is composed entirely OF
vegetable ingredients, digested by
machinery instead of by the COW, and
Is said to keep sweet far longer than
ordinary milk. It's strength, il is
said, can be standardized for the
family, infant or invalid.
1t Is proposed to build factory In
London to make and sell the family
variety at six cents a quart.

TO FORM MOTOR CLUBS.

Harrisburg, Nov. THE Penn
sylvania Motor Federation has issued
a statement urging upon owners and
users of motor vehicles the advan-
tages of getting together and form
ing local clubs which in turn will be
affiliated with the State organization.
Attention is called to the fact that
only by such organization can indi-
vidual motorists hope to be pro-
tected from freak legislation. In
the last Legislature four or Ave bills
were introduced for the purpose of
placing heavy burdens and vexatious
regulations upon motorists, and it
was only through the vigorous eff
forts of the Federation that these
measures were defeated.
1t is pointed out that the present
State highway law is the direct
result of the labors OF the Pennsyl-
vania Motor Federation. There is
no other State good roads associa-
ton in Pennsylvania, and so far as
organized effort is necessary it de-
wolves wholly upon the Federation.
AS another session of the Legisla-
ture is to open in January, and as
various important problems relating
to good roads and the regulation OF
motor vehicles are bound to come
up, the officers of the Federation are
impressed with the great need for a
larger alignment of motorists with
the State body. Proper support can
only be given where the motor car
owners of every city and town unite
to form local clubs affiliated with
the Federation.
1t is urged that these local clubs
should be above everything else good
roads associations, to work not only
for State roads but for the better
| construction and care of the loca,
roads, seeing that the township su-
pervisors do their duty.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local appncatIUus, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caus-
ed by an inflamed condition OF the
mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
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 inf1amed condition
OF the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Deafness (caus-
ed by catarrh) that cannot be cured
by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for
circulars, free.

WERTZ FAMILY is AFTER
MILLIONS LEFT BY ANCESTOR.

TO DEVELOP WATER
POWER ON DELAWARE.

1t has become known that separate
| projects are on foot for the damning
| of the Delaware river to generate
! electric power in New Jersey. One
] concern, the Somerset Light and
: Power Company, was incorporated
/ Friday at Trenton, N. j., and the
corporation papers OF the other, the
North Jersey Electric Company were
/ filed Friday morning in the county
clerks office of Sussex county at
/ Newton.
If there Is any connection between
/ the two concerns, the corporation pa
pers do not disclose It, the names
of the incorporators being different
/ throughout. Both are formed with
virtually nominal capital, so far as
concerns the cost of the Undertakings
| they contemplate.
Trenton, Oct 25.-For the pur-
pose of damning the Delaware river
at various points to generate power,
! the Somerset Light and Power COM

side to Pike county, Pa, at a point
half a mile below the Tri-States mon
ument; to construct lateral, or
head race from that point parallel to
the river on the New Jersey side to a
point two miles above the Dingman S

TAFT IS PHILOSOPHICAL.
Attributes Defeat to Split In Party and
Popular Discomfort.


Cincinnati, Nov. 7.-President Taft
left here at 3 o'clock yesterday after
noon to return to Washington, where
he arrived early this morning. His
private car Ideal was attached to a
regular express train over the Penn
sylvania railroad. Mr.. Taft was not
depressed or downcast over the result
of the election and in discussing It
with his personal friends accepted his
defeat philosophically. He believes
that the split in the Republican party
and the widespread popular discomfort
are the two principal factors causing
the Democratic landslide
The president has made no definite
plans for his future after the 4th OF
March next, when he will go out of Of
fee. He has repeatedly told his friends,
however. that he Intends to practice
law in this city. Recently there has
been report that he will join the
New York law firm which his brother
Henry W. Taft is a member and with
which Attorney General Wickersham
was formerly associated. Mr.. Taft
however 1t Is said, will not decide this
question for several months.
