The season of farmers short
courses and conventions has been
greeted by frost-bound country
aud blocked railway service, but
even these obstacles could not
check the response of enthusiastic
farmers. Attendance has been
large at all of the meetings so far
held, and interest in class work
and in progressive movements has
been at white heat. There is an
Unsuitable hunger for information
about the most recently developed
farm practices, and the organiza-
tions aiming at large crops and
better live stock indicate the prac-
tical concerted determination to
increase the profits and pleasure of
farming.
The agricultural college natural
ly constitutes the center of the
statewide movement for increased
individual efficiency and more
complete cooperation. The short
course attracts farmers of every
prediction, and its continuance
for. d week or more gives ample
time for the comparison of ideas
anu the formulation of satisfactory
plans for organization. The
studies in classroom and laborato-
ry are the main feature of the
short course for the younger peo-
pie, but for those who have been
in regular attendance for years,
this is merely incidental to the
cultivation of a wider acquaint-
ance and mutual helpfulness
among progressive farmers.
The farmers short course idea
has long been in successful opera
ton. Its practical value has sur
passed the expectations of earlier
years. Even with the spreading
of local farmers clubs, institutes
and short courses, the central
short course draws increasing
numbers to the college ever year.
The benefits of the college nave
been immeasurably extended by
this means. In the reports of the
short courses and the accompany
ing meetings, the unity of purpose
between farmer, investigator and
teacher is the dominant note.
The short course enables a farm
er personally to present his special
problem to those who can offer the
most dependable ADVICE. The
manifold branches of study laid
out for the class work give one
new ideas to apply in next seasons
work. The successes which other
farmers relate offer convincing
proof of the value of what is
learned. The short course and its
attendant meetings thus fit a man
to become most efficient as farm
.er and finally to lead others to
more productive methods.

This conceit OF the genial philoso-

that Radium is calculated to exert

Food for Reflection in Present Con.

The recent announcement that large
quantities of potatoes are being i'm
ported into the United States lends in
terest to statement prepared by the
bureau of statistics, department of
commerce and labor, showing the i'm
ports and exports of potatoes during
a term of years. While the produc-
ton Of potatoes in the United States
is usually sufficient to meet the re-
Quirements Of it's population, there
have been number of occasions fol-
lowing short crops in the United
States on which considerable guam
titles were imoprted. On other occa-
sions, when there were shortages
abroad and large crops in the United
States. considerable quantities were
exported. The total imports of po-
tatoes into the United States in the
last ten years aggregaed 22,S45, 1874
bushels, valued at 1885, TO, or about
48 cents per bushel, this valuation
being based upon the wholesale mar
ket price in the countries from which
imported, and does not, therefore, in
clude the cost Of transportation or du-
ties paid, the rate of duty being Is
cents per bushel of 60 pounds, both
under the present law and it's imme-
diate predecessor. The exports Of
potatoes from the United States dur
ing the same decade amounted to 49,
9GO,566 bushels, valued at $S,413,675,
an average of u cents per bushel.
Potatoes imported into the United
States come chiefly from Canada,
Mexico and Bermuda in America, and
Scotland, England. Ireland, Germany
and France in Europe, and thu Canary
islands. The potatoes exported 60
chiefly to the West Indies, Central
America and Canada, the largest
quantities usually to Cuba, Canada
and Panama and lesser quantities to

SAYS QU|NINE WILL
NOT BREAK A COLD

You will distinctly feel your cold
breaking and all the Grippe symp-
toms leaving after taking the very
first dose.
1t is positive fact that Pape's Cold
Compound. taken every two hours,
until three consecutive doses are TAX
en-, will end the grippe and break up
the most severe cold, either In the
head, chest, back, stomach or limbs.
It promptly relieves the most mis-
cradle headache, dullness, head and
most stuffed up, feverishness. sneez-
ing, sore throat, running of the most
mucous catarrhal discharges, sore
ness, stiffness and rheumatic twinges.
Pape's Cold Compound is the re-
suit of three years research at a cost
of more than fifty thousand dollars
and contains no quinine, which we
have conclusively demonstrated is not
effective in the treatment OF colds or
grippe.
Take this harmless compound as d.
rected with the knowledge that there
is no other medicine, made anywhere
else in the world which will cure your
cold or end grippe misery as prompt
ly and without any other assistance
or bad after-effects as a 25-cent pack
age of Pape's Cold Compound, which
any druggist in the world can supply
