Took fits Advice.

Once upon a time a very cool
man called on his doctor and asked
him for medical advice.
Take tonic and dismiss from
your mind all that tends to worry
you" said the doctor.
Several months afterwards the
patient received a bill from the
doctor asking him to remit three
guineas, and answered it thus;
Dear DoctoE-I have taken a
tonic and your advice. Your bill
tends to worry me. so | dismiss it

vember LIST wGs a slip with the fol-
lowing warning: Fire losses in the
United States and Canada last year
were $234,47O650. Over half these
fires were easily preventable. If all
the buildings burned last year in
the United States were placed close
together on both sides of a street,
they would make an avenue of des-
olation reaching from Des Moines
to New York City. At each thous-
and feet would be a building from
which a severely injured person had
been rescued. and every three-quar-
tiers of a mile there would be the
blackened ruins of house in which
someone had been burned to death"
On the opposite side of the slip
was given the cause and remedy Of
preventable fires. First is given the
cause and following the dash in
each case is given the remedy:
Matches Use only safety
matches.
Oily RAGS, waste and other causes
of spontaneous combustion Keep
all such material in safety metal
cans and in safe places.
Waste paper and other trash
Clean up regularly, and burn where
the wind will not scatter it.
Ashes Never pile them in con-
tact with wood.
Cigars, cigarettes and pipes
Care with matches and ashes.
Kerosene and gasoline-Keep in
safety cans. never fill lamps or
stoves while lighted.
Swinging gas jets - Should be
carefully placed and protected by
wire guard.
Stoves, furnaces and fiues
Should be carefully inspected each
season.

Mineral Output Over Two Hundred
Million Dollars

The total value of Alaska's min
eral production since mining first
began in 1880 is, in round numbers,
$206, 100000, or more than twenty
nine times the sum paid to Russia
for the Territory. OF this amount
$195,950,000 represents the total
value of the gold production. Alas
ka produced its first copper some
ten years ago, since which time the
Territory has contributed 100000
pounds of this metal, valued at
$,170.000. About 40 per. cent Of
this total amount was produced in
1911.
The favorable showing made by
the Alaska mining industry during
the year is due, first. to the very
large output Of copper and. second.
to the greater production. compar-
ed with 1910. of the gold placer
mines in The Innoko-Iditarod region.

For Fodder Poisoning.

A farmer who lost a number of
cattle from corn fodder poison,
gives the following recipe, which he
says has never failed him:
Death to cattle from eating corn
stalks may be prevented by giving
pint of salt containing 3 table
spoonsful of turpentine. This should
be dissolved in 3 pints of warm wa
ter and given in a drenching bottle.
Even after the animal is down and
unable to walk it can be relieved in
80 minutes and in the end perma-
nently cured. After the drench rub

turpentine entering the blood will
counteract the nerve trouble pro-
duced by the husks therein.

ARE MICR03ESiN YOUR
SCALP?
1t Has Been Proved That Microbes
Cause Badness.

Professor Unna of Hamburg.
Germany, and DR.. Sabourand, the
leading French dermatoloeist. dis
covered that a microbe causes
badness. Their theory has time
and again been amply verified
through research experiments car
ried on under the observation of
eminent scientists. This microbe
lodges in the Sebum, which is the
natural hair oil, and when permit
ted to flourish it destroys the hair
follicles and in time the pores en-
tirely close, and the scalp gradually
takes on shiny appearance. When I
this happens there is no hope of the
growth of hair being revived.
We have a remedy which will,
we honestly believe, remove dan
druff, exterminate the microbe, pro-
mote good circulation in the!scalp
and around the hair roots, tighten
and revitalize the hair roots, and
overcome badness, so. long as there
is any life left in the hair roots.
We back up this statement with
our own personal guarantee that
this remedy called Rexall "93" Hair
Tonic will be supplied free of all
cost to the user if it fails Ito do as
we state.
1t will frequently help to restore
gray and faded hair to its original

Tonic accomplishes these results by

Gumption on the Farm.

There is nothing that gives a
man such safe anchorage in life as
a good wife.
File the crosscut saw yourself;
you will thus soon save enough to
buy new saw.
Blessed be work. 1t gives US the
chance of making strong, capable
men and women of ourselves.
Draw up about the fire little
closer. Nice in here, even when
the drifts are high outside.
Take the frost out of your grind
stone before you grind the ak, but
do it gradually, and not by using
too hot water. That would injure
the quality of the stone.
Don't put off until spring any
outside work that can be done now.
Clean up the garden, haul out ma
nure, and when possible push the
blowing before snow flies
Keep wide paths shoveled to
every outbuilding. Help to open
the roads when heavy SHOWS drift
them, whether you are called out
by the pathmaster or not.
See that the stock is sheltered
from the cold every day and every
night.
While waiting impatiently for the
the state to repair that mud-hOle,
washOut or other bad place in the
highway, wouldn't it be good idea
to take few hours off and fix ii

the road, our highways would soon
show a decided improvement. Let
us not only talk good foads-let us
work bad roads. Farm Journal.

The Grange.

The National Grange held its
forty-fifth annual session last
month. 1t was decidedly success
full meeting and demonstrated most
emphatically the strength and Wig
OF of the organization, its growing
influence and prestige. The records
of the Grange for the fiscal year
ending October 1, 1911, show an
unprecedented permanent growth.
During the year there were four
hundred and thirteen subordinate
Oranges organized in twenty-nine
states. This is a larger number
than has been established in any
previous year since 1879. The net
gain in paid membership during the
past year, as shown by the treasur-
er's receipts, was 1929, which is
more than one hundred per cent in
crease above the net average gain
in membership for the last ten
years. This notable growth repre-
sents a net gain in nearly every
state and bespeaks a promising
future for the organization. The
internal disturbances of the Nation
al Grange, of which some papers
and outside interests have made so
much. have been greatly exaggerat-
ed and misrepresented. Only a
very small part of what has been
printed and said about the ineffici-
ency of officials, mismanagement of
affairs, ct cetera, has been true, the
great majority of the criticism be-
ing baseless and many of the at
tacks entirely unwarranted. Per
sonal grievances with a desire to
fight and fight back, regardless of
reason or what was best for the Or
der and its accomplishments. caus-
ed much of this magnified dissatis-
faction. The more sensible atti-
tude of compromise and a get to-
gether spirit in the interest of a
worthy cause pervaded the recent
session. In the new administration
headed by Oliver Wilson, of Illinois
there should exist harmony and a
unity and intensity of interest
which will not only result in q
growing membership. but will con.
tribute to greater achievements in
lettering conditions on the farm
The Grange has accomplished much
for agriculture. 1t can and will dc
much more No organisation has

YALE EIGHT IN TIME ROW
Shows Creditable Speed in Tilt
with Second Boat

Gales Ferry, Conn, June 1.-THE Yale
coaches sprang surprise by sending the
Ell varsity eight on time trial over the
Iour-mlle course this morning. The second
eight acted as pacemaker TO the first
Inc varsity made a good start, while the
second eight splashed a lot In the first
quarter mile the varsity nosed a length
ahead Of the second; at the two-mlle point
they were three lengths ahead, and when
the four-mile mark was passed had left
the second boat ten lengths in the rear.
The varsity started with stroke of about
60 and did not change throughout. The time
was q AS. which was considered fairly good.
Three launches followed the shells. and tho
oarsmen were brought back to quarters on
them.
X. +. Herrick. chairman of the Harvard
rowing committee, was in conference with
Captains Romeyn Of Yale. and Strong OF
Harvard. to-day over a proposal TO have a
race between second Fights instead of be-
tween four-oared boats. The idea is TO give
more OF the substitutes a chance TO row
and would result In sixteen men getting
their letters instead Of twelve, as now. 1t
Is expected that the proposal will be car
ried through.
Mr.. Herrick has presented new cup as
the trophy for the gentlemen's eight race.
There are certain new conditions connected
with the gift which will be announced later.
Red Top, Conn, June 1.-THE Harvard
