methods used in the supply department
of the French army, Captain Francis H.
Pope, quartermaster Of the Fourteenth
infantry at Fort George Wright, has
been ordered by the. war department to
proceed at once to Paris. Captain Pope
expects to leave the post at Spokane

service. for twenty years and has been
stationed in Cuba, the Philippines and
Alaska. AS soon as, he is settled in Par
is his family will't follow. He expects
to be gone for a year at least. There
are other American officers attending
the cavalry and infantry schools of
France. Germany however, is more
strict, an dthere are fewer Americans
studying methods there, although Ger
many has permitted the practice to u
considerable extent the last year.

HAIL STORMS take
TOLL over STATE
LOCAL LOSSES REPORTED IN VA:
RlOUS DISTRICTS OF NORTH
. DAKOTA q ''.-

Several hailstorms have damaged
the crops, but the loss to the present
time is far smaller than the normal
losses.
Heaviest losses reported to date
come from the district north of Car
rinston and New Rockford, where
storms swept several thousand acres.
The southern edge Of Pierre county
also was badly hit, with points in
southern Pierce and western Benson
also scattering. Some OF the losses
werc total and farmers are blowing
their fields. Near Wiskhe, a. storm

ing partial. 80
The Darlington storm travelled
&Dout twelve miles from that city, and
the hail was accompanied by a high
wind. Fifty per cent losses are re-
ported from that district
Ten to ninety per cent losses were
sustained in a storm along the Green
river, in Stark county. The path OF
the hail was from oe to three miles
and twenty miles long.
Losses growing out of the storm
along the western and southern edge
Of the Turtle Mountain district are
from Is to 80 per cent.

large as last year, they are more num-
crous, and sales for June were about
even with those Of the same month IN
1912. Hardware Mas not been parti-
Cularly active and there are a lew
weak points, but they are barely
noticeable, and, as a general rule.
prices are holding strong. Trade with
boot and shoe jobbcrs keeps up well.
In dry goods current business is good
and, considering the season, advance
orders are unusually heavy. For
some time, the wcatrrr. has been dry,
but there have been heavy rains in
some sections and corn has more
than caught up. The plant is In ex.
cellent condition and the outlook gen.
orally is encouraging. Collections are
good.
Kansas City.-General business con.
ditions here and in co%ntributary ter
ritory are holding up remarkably
we'll. In most wholesale lines sales
have shown an increase over last
year, which, in a few instances, is
very satisfactory. Wheat in certain
sections of western and southwestern
Kansas and western Oklahoma was
badly damaged Ly dry weather, but
the central and eastern portion OF
these two states have just harvested
a very satisfactory crop. Recent
rains came in time to be of great bene-
fit to growing corn, oats. hay, potatoes
and other crops, all of which nav pro.
misses better than average production.
Conditions are more favorable than
at this time last year and show an
improvement of at least 100 per cent
as compared with the same period In
1871, which was a bad crop year. That
there should be financial. unrest in
the face OF such promising crop con-
ditions is unusual and attributed
wholly to proposed tariff ad financial
legislation. Higher rates n asked
for money and it is predicted that
this condition will prevail until we'll
into next year.

Bowels Get Weak
 As Age Advances
The First Necessity is to Keep the
 Bowels Gently Open With Mild Laxative Tonic.

Healthy old age is so absolutely de- pendent upon the condition of the bowels that great care shold be taken to see that they act regularly. The fact is that as age advances the stom- ach muscles become weak and in- active and the liver does not store up the juices that are necessary to promote digestion.
 Some help can be obtained by eat ing easily digested foods and by plenty of exercise. but this latter is irksome to most elderly people. One thing is certain, that a state of con stipation should always be avoided as it is dangerous to life and health. The best plan is to take a mild laxative as often as is deemed necessary But with equal certainty it is suggested that cathartics, purgatives, physics, salts and pills be avoided, as they do but temporary good and are so harsh as to be a shock to a delicate system. A much better plan, and one that thousands of elderly people are fol- lowing, is to take gentle laxative tonic like Dr. CaldwelPs. Syrup Pepsin which acts as nearly like nature as is possible. In fact, the tendency of this remedy is to strengthen the stom acA and bowel muscles and so train them to act naturally again, when medicines of all kinds can usually be dispensed with. This is the op- inion of many people of different ages among them Mr. o. P. Miller, Baroda Mich, who writes: T am so years old and have been constipated for many years.

PREPARING FOR LIVE STOCK SHOW Annual County Fair Will Be Held in Pine Bluff
 October l6 to 22. MANY NEW FEATURES Premium List Enlarged-Dates Will Not ConpIict With Arkansas
 State Fair.
MANY NEW FEATURES

Elaborate preparations are already under way for the holding of the sec ond annual exhibition of the Arkansas Livestock Association and the Jeffer- son County Fair which will be held in this city October 16 to 22.
 Already, the management has sent out circulars announcing the show and many replies have been received from prominent stock growers relative to the entering of their animals in the various contests.
 Work is now progressing on the premium list, but as yet it has not been completed. This, however, will not be rushed as ample time will be given all those who wish to donate prizes IL is thought that it will be about the middle of June before the list has been completed. During the next week, However. County Judge Fhilpot and representative of the farm demonstration wor will visit the various business men of the city
  and ascertain how many are willing to donate prizes. This year, the large { number of cash prizes will be elimin- i ated, and handsome loving cups will be awarded instead. This is expected to meet with general approval as the loving cups will last almost forever, i and the entrants will have sonnet h n O to show for the work done.
 The fair will be filled with new features and is expected to De grand success. Added free attractions will be used and a record -breaknig at l tendance is expected

for the first time. Not being able to obtain suitable grounds the directors were compelled to use two vacant blocks and the streets of the city, play exhibits.
 l The fair was success in every way and encouraged the management to establish permanent quarters. This year most excellent grounds have been secured, accessible to the prin- eipal residence section of the city, reached by two car lines and two we'll paved streets. A large exhibition building and building for agricultural will be built and pens constructed sufficient to care for several hundred head of live stock. These facts to- gether with the success of the first year insure a widespread interest in the event and good attendance.
 This year the premiums in practi- cally all departm have been mc- terially increased and mary new classes added. It is the aim of the management to give prominence to those features that would prove not only educational, but be ali incentive to the introduction and growing of more and better live stock and aid in teaching the importance of thorough soil preparation, proper seed selec- tion and the various other steps in progressive agriculture.
 The dates which have been chosen for this year are October 16 to 22, giving ample time for exhibitors to pack lip and ship exhibits to tine State Fair at Hot Springs which has select ed the dates of October P to Novem- Der 2, which were the ones used in this city last year. A feature of the opening day this year will be an au- tomobile parade with prizes for the three best decorated machines. The live stock parade, in which many of the fine horses wlll be exhibited, will probably be on Saturday morning of fair week.
