CHlLD'S FACE ALL RED SPOTS

632 N. 5th St., Terre Haute, Ind
my little nephew, a boy of four
years, had breaking out on his face.
1t was little red spots at first, then
he would rub and scratch and water
blisters would form. and wherever the
water would run another would come
until his face was covered with them.
He would cry and fret. His mother
got some medicine, but It did not do
any good. He would scream and cry
and say It hurt. We hardly knew him,
his little face was all red spots and
blisters. So l begged him to let me
put some Cuticura Ointment on them.
The next morning ! made a strong
soap suds with Cuticura Soap and
washed his face in che warm suds.
The little blisters burst by pressing
the cloth on them. After l had his
face washed, l put the Cuticura Oint.
ment on and in short time his little
face was all red and dry. kept using
the Cuticura Soap and putting on the
Cuticura Ointment and his face got as
well and 1t did not leave scar. He
was entirely cured in about one week
and a half" (Signed) Mrs. Arthur

STUDYING PROFIT AND LOSS
Too Little Attention 10 Given to
Keeping Accounts Of Little De.
tails Of the Farm.

The young farmer or the old one
rs well should look for the roads that
lead TO profit or loss on the farm and
see to 1t that he gets started on the
right road. Too little attention is civ.
en- to the computing OF profits and al.
so studying losses. 1t is not easy to
figure out the profits on the farm for
single year, provided the farm Is
improved with better fences, tile
drains, systematic rotation Of crops
and improvement Of stock. Where per.
sonal labor is exchanged by the own.
er for the Improvement of his farm
he is quite apt to neglect to figure
in this amount on the profit side OF
the ledger.
The farmer can. however, keep ac'
counts of the general details of his
work and by so doing know Just about
where he is coming out at the end Of
the year. One Of the helps In look
ing ahead is by the putting OF his
eggs In more than one basket. We
would not. however. have too many
baskets. Getting at the profits means
looking ahead. better farm manage
ment. more business methods and an
ability to be resourceful.

SECURING MOST FROM FARMS
DlverslhcatIon Extends Operations and
Materially Reduces Many Dangers
Of Failure.

One Of the benefits of diversified
agriculture is that 1t extends farm
operations to include several crops so
that the danger Of failure may be re-.
duced. This benefit alone is sufii.
cient to commend diversified farm.
Ing, although 1t is by no means the
only benefit. There are others that
are worthy Of consideration.
No manager is justified in diversi.
Tying crops for the sake OF a variety.
His reason for diversiicaton must
have broader view and a more sub.
stantial foundation than that there
be variety OF products for the sake
OF variety. There must be utility for
every crop grown. The crops should
be profitable. No crop should be Sc.
lected to occupy place in the rota.
ton unless It is profitable. either for
soil improvement, feed for stock. for
4. home consumption or as money
crop.
Before any crop is decided upon in
the rotation scheme. the manager
should have sufficient evidence that
1t can be successfully grown on his
farm. This Is no time for expert.
ment. Your experience and practical
observations should guide you In se-
lecting crops for various purposes in
the rotation. You cannot afford to
have the scheme fail because the
crops you selected are not adapted to
. your environments.
Markets must be carefully consid.
cred when you are planning and car.
rying out your rotation plan. Every
crop should have a demand on your
farm or as a commercial product in
tho open market. It is highly desir.
able that you decide what disposition
will be made OF the products before
they are planted.
For instance. corn planted for the
ssilo may be planted late. but II plant.
ed for grain for the animals 1t should
be planted early. Sorghum planted
for roughage is managed different
from that planted for sirup. Cowpeas
planted for hay are not managed In
the same manner as when planted
exclusively for soil Improvement.
1t Is nearly always desirable to ex.
tend the rotation plan to include the
necessary products that can be grown
for the family table and to maintain
the live stock on the farm. There are
crops that make heavy demand upon
!, the soil. and while not ordinarily
profitable when sold on the market,
are profitable when used at home or
fed to animals. These are some OF the
problems that must be solved by the
manager who has entered upon a pro.
gressiye system Of rotation.

SENATOR STONE RAPS PRESIDENT
 FOR HIS VETOES

washington, Aug. 13.-Prefacing his speech with the declaration that he was a friend of the Presidents, Senator Stone, of Missouri, yesterday afternoon, caustically criticised the Executives course in vetoing the tariff revision bills and particularly the wool measure.
 He eulogized the Executive as a man of high ideals and impulse.
 "But unfortunately, he added, ..hc is so environed by political exigencies so embarrassed and confused by the advice. and inIportunfties of political partisans and by interests to which his party is obligated that, as in this instance, he permits himself to be over-persuaded and to follow a course which I do not believe has the free sanction of his deliberate judg- ment.
 .1 am genuinely sorry to say that it looks as if the President was weak when he should have been strong an q yielded when he should have been firm. I cannot but think he will dis cover before many moons that weak ness at a crucial period is always a fatal blunder. But, after all, this is only another example of a good man gone wrong"

REFUSED TEDDY'S
 OFFER BECAUSE
 OUT FOR WILSON
BRAND WHITLOCK, TOLEDO'S
 MAYOR, DECLINED SECOND PLACE ON BULL MOOSE TICKET.

New York, Aug. iS-Why Brand Whitlock declined an offer of thesvice Presidential nomination from Theo- dore Roosevelt during the Bull Moose convention was told yesterday at Democratic National headquarters by John B. Friend, a. close political asso- ciate of the Toledo Mayor. The req son was simply this: Whitlock is for Wilson and wants to go on the stump for him. Friend came to New York to say so to William F. McCombs the National chairman, and to raise the question of having Governor Wilson come to Ohio to make few speeches.
 2 .Whitlock, according to Friend, saw Col Roosevelt in New York last spring and again at the Republican Nationa1 convention in Chicago in June; and each time the Colonel told him that he would not run for Presi- dent if Wilson should be nominated on the Democratic ticket. Then Wilson was nominated and the Colonel chang ed his mind. While the Colonel convention was in progress, Judge Der B. Lindsey of Denver telegraphed tc Whitlock to say that the Colone would like to have Whitlock on the ticket with him.

GOV. BALDWIN
 URGES WORK
Believes Wilson Will Be Elected, But Says Demo crats Must Hustle to Win Next November.

Tn a statement yesterday Governor Simeon B. Baldwin warned the dem ocrats not to be too sure of victory. He believes that Wilson will be elect ed but believes that the democrats must work hard to make that fact assured.
 He said: "In my opinion Governor Wilson will be elected I do not feel sure, however. that he will have any votes to spare. It is not going to be an easy contest. We democrats are inclined to be a little over-confdent at present. The managers must put that feeling behind them and buckle down to hard work.
 The Roosevelt movement is one to be reckoned with but believe that Roosevelt will get three-quarters of his vote from the republican ranks.
 "Governor Wilson has the advan- tage of having both Taft and Roose- welt running against him and of hav- ing been nominated in what appears to. be strong democratic year. But the thing which seems to me to make the strongest appeal to the people and to have most to do with the Likelihood of his election is the inherent ability of the man. If. am not mistaken the people have not been and will not be slow to realize that they have in Wilson a man of high order of ability, independence and sincerity. ''

SOIL WILL YIELD BILLION MORE IN
 WEALTH IN 1912
Bank President Gives View of Bounty of Soil to Peo-
 ole of United States

Chicago, Aug. 13.-Declaring that
 more than nine billions of dollars in
 new wealth will be produced from the
 soil, this year in. the United States
 against production of eight billion
 dollars in 1911, George M. Reynolds,
 president of the Continental and Com
 merciaI Bank of Chicago. to-day, de-
 clared this year will be one of un-
 precedented prosperity, taking into consideration the fact that 1t IS a
 presidential year. The statement follows:
 The soil is richly rewarding the toll of man, this year. Reports from our investigators all over the country indicate the following estimated yields of the principal crops. Wheat 660, ,000 bushels. Corn 2, soc, ,O00, ,0oO bushels; Oats. 1,200. .000,- GOO bushels: barley, 200, OO0, 900 bush els: cotton IS,100,000 bales; potatoes 36O, ,000, 900.
 Present crop conditions justify ar estimate. of $9,033, 900, this year.
 There is ahead probably 12 months of good live business with moderate profits. Business men throughout ! the country are acting with caution but their utterances indicate very clearly a greater degree of courage | than is usually noticeable in a presi- dential year despite the rather mixed political situation and the possibility of reversal of many governmental policies through a change of admins tration. There is a noticeable dis position to disregard politics and at tend strictly to business.
 There Is no section wherein crops have failed. The production, this
 year in, almost all things is above the average.
 Not only is labor well employed this year. but there is a noticeable tscarcity at nearly all the leading cen ters both in skilled and unskilled. Railroads, through enforced cur tailment, have not been able to keep their equipment up to the require ments of the present business activ- ity. Hence, it would not be surpris- ing if there is considerable congestion during the crop moving period"

 BRINGS B $I4,OOO,OOO
Worlds Largest Office Building, 36 Stories High,
 to Be Built There

New York, Aug. 1S-TFe property of the Equitable Life Assurance Society at 10 Broadway, comprising the entire block, Pine, Nassau and Cedar streets has been sold to 8 corporation orga- niaed especially to finance the pur- chase, headed by Gen. T. Coleman du Pont of wilmington, Del The du Pont Company, the new owner and the holding company, will erect the largest office building in the world on the site of the old Equitable build ing, which was destroyed by fire Jan. g last. The purchase price is said to be close to $14,O00, 900, the exact amount not being disclosed. The old building was practically worthless for modern conditions, but the city's ap- praisal Of the property was 12O00, 900, and the Equitable Company has been
 asking $14,000. .0O0 for the land during the several weeks that negotiations have been in progress
 q This is the largest transfer of real estate in single sale of so valuable
 land in the heart of the business dis trict that has ever been recorded in this city, aiteiS said. The only recent comparison with it is the acquisition of! property by the Pennsylvania Rail road for terminal improvements, put was bought in separate parcels ana several years were. required to conn tpIete the whole transaction.
 Associated with Gen du Pont in the corporation are Frank M Andrews, architect of the new Hotel
 McAlpin, and L. J. HoroWitz, Pres1-
 dent of the Thompson -Starrett Co, Of New York. MT. Andrews and Pres
 ident w. A. Day of the Equitable Co. directed the negotiations
 The passing of this large realty holding from the Equitable Co, which purchased in 1867 the lots now com iprising the property, will probably mark the end of large insurance in vestment in realty and large build iings exclusively for home offices, for they are no longer regarded as either
 2 good investment or an advertising feature of the business. A represen- tative of the Equitable Life Assurance Society gave this last night as the principal reason for disposing of the
 property. The investment, he said, could be used more profitably in oth- CT ways. The old building never paid returns upon the money involved. hereafter the Equitable will rent home headquarters, provision for which will be made in the construction of the new and modern structure, which will
 be thirty-six stories high.
