This incident happened at camp,
when a corporal. who was making
up the rations, was approached by
the tent orderly, and the latter sug-
gested a change in the dietary.
I'VE should like to have some
rhubarb," he said.
You may have it," replied the
corporal. who with pencil and paper
then commenced trying to record
the order. He began "Ru,' hastily
abandoning that for "Reu," and
then put Roo and "Rheu" re-
spectively. Thoroughly exasperat-
ed at last, the corporal exclaimed
"Rubub be blowed! You'll have
cabbage. "-[London Telegraph.

THE ONLY LIFE SAVINGS
OF MAN OF MUCH NOTE

The petition Of James s. Harlan
for the administration OF the estate
OF his father, the late Justice John
Marshall Harlan, sets forth that the
entire estate consists of personal
property valued at $500, life in
surance $1,000 and an arrear of sal
airy amounting to s4s6.11. There
is no real estate whatever. So that
the total amount OF the fortune left
by the Justice is $13,386.11.
These are the life-savings OF a
man of frst-class mental, moral and
physical strength who gave many
long, laborious years of arduous
service to the Nation. In one re-
spect they make an unpleasant i'm

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhamed con-
dtion OF the mucous lining OF the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and ur ess the inflammation can be
taken out and this lube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth

pounds per acre is very common oc-
currence. The fertilizer is best applied
after opening the rows for planting the
potatoes, running the pillow, with the
mold board taken off after applying the
fertilizer, SO as to mix the fertilizer with
the soil before planting the potatoes.
The early varieties of potatoes such
as Irish Cobbler, Early Rose, Red Bliss
and Sunlight, are very popular for late
planting, the advantage of planting these
Early varieties being that they not only
make excellent yields, but the late crop
makes excellent seed potatoes for plant
ing the following spring. We recon-
mend to our customers, when planting
potatoes in June or early in July, to
plant at least portion of their crop of
the early varieties.

the potatoes, SO as to leave them well

in rows three to three and a half feet

Late Seed Potatoes

One Of the most important crops for
June and July planting is late seed pota-
toes. Considerably more attention has
been paid to the planting of late pota-
toes in the last few years than hereto
fore. This is largely due to the tact
that our stock of these potatoes are kept
in cold storage 50 as to rurn;sn mem H.

Ing, The potatoes are harvested, too,
at Il season of the year when it is not
necessary, as with the early potatoes, to
market them at once, but they can be
lug and stored, ana sold during the Win
ter as market conditions warrant.
When grown for home use, the plant
ing OF potatoes in June and July is also
most satisfactory, as it furnishes good
supply of potatoes for use throughout
