Add a little Gold Dust to
your scrubbing water, and you
can clean your floors, doors
and woodwork in a iiffy. Gold
Dust is such a superior cleanser
that it does the hardest part of
the work, and requires little
scrubbing. 1t does the work;
you simply aid it.
Gold Dust will do the work
better than soap or any other
cleanser, making your wood
work look like new.
For cleaning anything and
everything about the house
nothing is so quickly effective
as Gold Dust. It's the cleans
ing marvel of the age!

BENEFITS OATS CROP.
Vincent AStOr Turns Attention to
Agricultural Matters.

Poughkeepsie, n. Y, March The
recent decision of Vincent Astor to de-
vote some of his wealth, youth and en-
ergy to the agricultural regeneration of
New York state, took the form of ac-
ton today in the offer to provide farm
ers of Duchess county, the seat of his
ancestral estate, with white tartar seed
oats at s125 a bushel. Although young
Aston himself is on the way to Panama
in his yacht. the announcement is made
from FerncIiff farm at Rhinebrent,
which he has decided to turn into an
agricultural experiment station.
Old farmers say that young Astor
has shown good Judgment in the Sc
lection of the first neighborhood crop
to be improved. Oats in Dutchess county
rarely grow more than three feet in
height and the heads are scanty and
the kernels thin. The Aston farm
guarantees that its seed oats will i'm
prove the crop in the county, producing
five feet of straw, with long heads and
thick plump heavy kernels.
