GIVE THE VEGETABLES ROOM
Much Garden Truck Has Been RuInee
by Not Thinning Out at Proper
Tlme-Nerve Needed.

Do not be afraid to thin out your
plants-they must not be crowded,
Probably nor garden stuff has been
ruined for want of being thinned al
the proper time than by any other
cause
However that may be, one of the
most puzzling things for the begin
ner to End out is whether any particu.
lar vegetable should be thinned on
transplanted, and how far apart the
plants should stand afterward.
He will get some help from the cat
alogues as to the distances, but
whether he should transplant or thin
is the kind Of thing that is not In the
book.
1t requires a great deal Of nerve ia
pull up and destroy the unnecessary
seedling-more nerve than the anna.
teur possesses. They say that q per
son becomes q good gardener
until he steels his to this
ruthless sacrifie.
A vegetable must have plenty Cd
room to develop its best size and
flavor, and one can take no pride In
small commonplace vegetables.

A Good Collector.

A good collector is as resourceful as
an old-time Yankee peddler, and that
is going some. Incidentally he Is
made; he may be born with certain
traits that are needed in such a man,
but they are nothing more than raw
material until hammered into shape
by practical experience, says National
Hardware Bulletin.
We know a merchant who had been
trying to collect a considerable bill for
nearly a year without success. The
customer in question was one of that
kind, which is good so far as his f.
nancial ability was concerned, but bad
as to his disposition to pay; still his
business might be worth considerable
if he could be induced to pay without
being forced. Coming down to his
store one morning this merchant saw
a couple of pretty Daughters of the
Revolution stop his customer on the
street and without much difficulty
smile him into a liberal donation for a
fair. The merchant went on into his
store, related the incident to his
cashier, a bright, attractive young wo-
man, and said, 60 down and tackle
that man, see if you can get a settle
ment." About ten minutes later the
cashier returned, bringing a check for
the full amount. She dimpled slight
ly as she handed the check to the pro-
p~rietor; 81 was real nice to him." she
said.
This merchant went through his
ledger and from his knowledge of most
of his customers, was able to select,
out of a number of bills that were
hanging fire, several that his cashier
collected without difficulty.
We often hear the question debated
as to whether or not a woman makes
a good collector. From what we have
seen we do not think the question re-
quires any debate. A man who has
any chivalry about him can be reach
ed, as in the instance cited in the
foregoing, when he is pretty neal i'm
pervious to anything else outside a
resort to the courts.
A wide-awake young woman can be
developed into quite as skillful a col
lector as the proprietor himself. We
do not recommend this, however, as
a blanket proposition; there are debt
ors that car be handled better by one
of the men in the store if he knows
his business, and there are some who
can be handled only by the proprietor
himself. The merchant who handles
the credit end Of his business in a
systematic way, will use whichever
means as in his judgment will bring
the quickest returns.

LIES STRUGGLE
WITH ILLNESS
Mrs. Stewart Tells How She
Suffered from 16to45 years
old-How Finally Cured.

Euphemia, Ohio.-"Because of total
ignorance of how to are for myself
when verging into womanhood, and from
taking cold when going to school, I suf-
fered from a displacement, and each
month 1 had severe pains and nausea
which always meant a lay-off from work
for two to four days from the time /
was 16 years old.
81 went to Kansas to live with my sis
ter and while there a doctor told me of
the Pinkham remedies but | did not use
them then as my faith in patent medi-
cines was limited. After my sister died
/ came home to Ohio to live and that
has been my home for the last Is years.
"The Change of Life came when l was
AZ years old and about this time l saw
my physical condition plainly described
in n of your advertisements. Then /
began using Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg

or any one the relief it gave me in the

Fine Remedy
For Eczema
Also for Salt Rheum, Tet-
ter, Psoriasis, Lupus,
and All Skin
Affections.

All skin troubles should be attacked
from within by giving the blood circular
ton a good daily bath. This Is accom-.
plished with S.. S. s., the best known and
most highly recommended blood purifier
ever discovered. Its action Is very rapid.
It's vegetable nature Is such that 1t nat
urally goes right into the blood, saturateS
the entire circulation, battles the tissues
with an influence that enables the skin
to heal quickly. The action of 8. 8. s. Is
that of an antidote, and this fact has
been demonstrated time and time again
in the most severe forms Of weeping
eczema.
Its influence in the tissues where tha
tiny arteries transfer the red blood for
the worn out blood to the veins is quite
remarkable and goes on constantly with
every tick of the clock-the beat Of the
heart.
And new skin is thus caused to form
while the germs of irritating influences
that cause eczema are scattered and their
harmful nature entirely suspended.
S. S. S. has a wonderful tonic influence
in the blood because it contains no
dope" is not a physic, is entirely free OF
any mineral drugs or any other drugs
the pure vegetable products of which it
is made.
Few people realize how harmful are
many of the strong, crude ointments that
used to be in favor before they learned
that S. S. S. is safe, speedy and sure.
Ask at any drug store for a bottle, of
S. S. S. Give it a good trial and you win
soon see a decided improvement in any
form of skin trouble. Write to The swift
Specific Co, 100 Swift Bldg, Atlanta, Ga.
for special free advice on eczema and any
other form of skin or blood trouble.
Do not allow anyone to palm off a cheap
substitute for S. s.. S. You will be
grievously disappointed if you do. There
is nothing else Just as good" as S. S. s.

Anent Cattle Shortage.

DR.. A. D. Melvin, chief of the Uni
ter States bureau of animal industry,
estimates the annual loss from tuber-
culosis in livestock at $23, 600. 900.
Texas fever and cattle tick cause even
larger losses, says Chicago Retailers
Journal.
These and other facts are set forth
by Edward Marshall in an article on
the beef shortage, published in the
May number of the Housewives
League Magazine. In seven years, be-
ginning with 1907, Mr.. Marshall shows
while the population has averaged to
increase by more than a million and
a half, each twelvemonth the number
of beef cattle in this country has di-
minished by 1886, 900, or nearly so
per cent" This, he says, lis the big
reason at the back of high beef
prices"
These conditions are not improving.
From January 1 to March 10 Of the
present year there was a decrease of
1881 in the receipts Of cattle at six
big western markets. This is shown
by the figures compiled by the bureau
of animal industry. Mr.. Marshall says
in his article that the shortage is real
ly worldwide. The European markets
are suffering almost as much as those
of the United States. Neither South
America nor Canada has any surplus
of cattle aud cannot be looked TO as
a source of supply. "It is evid emit,
says Mr.. Marshall, that we must rely
mainly upon our own resources" He
continues:
According to the census we have
29,O 0 900 more people to feed than
we had twenty years ago, and Ameri'
cans are the greatest meat eaters in
the world. A recent careful official es
innate shows the annual consum ption
of meat per head of population i'll the
United States to be 1862 pounds, OF
which beef constitutes 80 pounds and
veal IN pounds. Thus we annually
eat, each of us, more than his own av
erage weight in beef. This average
consumption is rs pounds per lieaG
greater than Great Britain's and AZ
pounds greater than that of Germany
and France.
Obviously, therefore, Jul troubles
lies much deeper than the packing
houses of Chicago, Kansas City, ant
st. Louis. Fol- the moment, setting
aside the argument that we eat toe
much meat and might with wisdom Gu
down III consumption, the fact re
mains that we must increase produc
tion or find ourselves confronted b!
a notable meat famine, with what mea
is for sale held at prices even higher
really much higher-than they n q
present. This is not due to any trust
the conditions have been created b!
the population as a whole"

~ HfybbSSS" 'SS~
and Ia, perhaps, all things considered.
the most popular breed in this coun-
try at the present time.
Its origin Ia commonly given as Q
cross between the Black Java and the
American Dominique. Besides the
Java other Asiatic blood has probably
been used in making the breed.
The Plymouth Rock is more like
the Asiatic than like the European
chicken. 1t approaches in size and
fattening qualities the Cochin OF
Brahma, but has lost the excessive
feathering, slowness of growth and
general clumsiness of those breeds.
The best recommendation for the
Plymouth Rock on the farm is the
excellent growth made by the young
chickens. In this quality they have
no superior. The Plymouth Rock
pullets are good layers, but as year
ling hens r prone to turn into ia
rather than eggs.
Another objection to the barreC
variety is the difficulty in keeping the
breed true to the standard type. The
~pure-bred type birds are required tt
have even and distinct bars of the
same shade in male and female.
These are difficult points to main
tain, and resort is often made t.
double mating or the keeping of TIVE
breeding pens, one to produce cock
erels and the other pullets.
The white and buff Plymouth Rock
are later products than the barrel
variety. Much Of what has been salt
will apply to them also. The following
differences might be noted:
The white variety is free from tn
color objection of the barred type, bu
the objection to the fattening tend
ency applies to hens of this variet!
perhaps more forcibly than to thu
barred.
Buff Plymouth Rocks will probabi!
average smaller than the other varie
ties of the breed. Although a solid
colored bird, they like all buff breeds
except the buff Cochins, will be fount
difficult to breed to nj color, owing
to the tendency to possess black o.
white in the wings and tail.

COMMENCE WORK
ON CAPITOL SOON
MARBLE BIGGEST Item
THOUSANDS OF YARDS OF ALA
BAMA MARBLE TO BE USED
IN BUILDING.

Little Rock, Oct. 16.-The Pilgreen
Construction Co. of st. Louis, con-
tractors to complete the state capitol,
have advised Secretary Tunnah that
they expect to begin shipping freight
for the work by the middle of next
week. The Iron Mountain switch at
the rear of the building is being ex-
tended to the terrace for that purpose.
The sub-contract for the electric
wiring has been let to the Arkansas
Electric Company of Little Rock, and
work has commenced.
The biggest item in connection with
the completion of the building will be
the placing OF thousands of yards of
Alabama marble on the floors and in
the corridors.
The corridors of the ground floor,
now unused, are to be f1oored with
marble, and the offices with selected
Arkansas pine. Among the offices to
be located on the ground floor are the
educational department, the military,
the land Office, the railroad and tax
commissions and the clerk of the su-
preme court.
On the first, or executive floor, white
marble is to replace the plaster on all
the walls for the full height. The mar
BILE will be carried another story high
er in the dome, and the columns are
to be covered with marble. No plas-
ter will be left visible on this floor.
The secretary of state and the state
auditor will exchange offices, but the
governor, attorney general, state
treasurer and supreme court will stay
where they are.
On the second floor there is to be a
marble wainscoting eight feet high,
and the columns and arches of the ro-
tundas will be replaced with marble.
Marble walls are to be provided for
the senate and house chambers, and
white marble stands for the president
and speaker. The History Commits
sion will have large quarters over the
treasury, and all the rest of the Sec
ond floor will be left vacant for the
legislature. The scagliola columns are
not to be changed.
