has been so successful in relieving the
suffering of women, or received so many
genuine testimonials, as has Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

find women who have been restored to
health by this famous medicine. Almost
every woman you meet knows of the
great good it has been doing among
suffering women for the past 80 years.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, are files containing hundreds Of
thousands of letters from women seek

THE BUSINESS
FARMERS CORNER
FRUIT GROWING
Making 1t Pay by Cooperation
By ]. B. NORMAN

Practical Horticultural, Formerly Connected
with Department of Agriculture
Many fruits, such as peaches, straw
berries and raspberries, are very perish
able. They must be picked at the right
time, packed properly and marketed
promptly to bring good prices. The
grower runs big risks when he stands
alone. The season is short, lasting only
few weeks at the most The grower
must be able to take advantage of mar
ket conditions or failure stares him in
the face. He may deal with an honest
commission merchant and yet get little
or nothing for his fruit. 1t may spoil
on the road or the market may be over
stocked, when the price surely falls.
This spells failure, and it is an every
day occurrence. For this reason coop
Grafton has spread rapidly among fruit
growers in all parts of the country with
splendid results.
Even Missouri does not have to be
shown. In fact, Missouri can show us
something worth while when it comes to
a question of cooperation among grow
ers of small fruits. One man with $40
trees on less than three acres reports a
net profit of 1878. Another with ten
acres reports a net profit of more than
81 500. These incomes are not unusual
among small fruit growers in the Ozark
region, when they are united into co.
operative societies.
1t is practically impossible for grow
ers of strawberries and peaches in Mis-
souri, to sell their crops at a profit if
they try to market them without CO.
operation. Before the Ozark Fruit
Growers association was formed, many
strawberry growers were selling out be-
cause of poor prices, but now straw
berry farming is probably the most
prosperous line of agriculture in the
state. The chief benefit has been brought
about by shipping to towns and cities
where the supplies of fruit were not
large. The manager of the society is in
daily communication with all available
markets.
Other benefits are the establishment
of fruit brands that have become known
to the trade are sought in the market
and bring high prices. The growers
have acquired better business methods.
They have better facilities for handling
their crops, and they take better care
of their orchards because it pays them
to do so.
There is room for progress, but by
fruit growers through the To-
cal press in the advantages of co-opera-
ton there is no reason why the growing
of perishable fruits may not be made a
safe and profitable business practically
everywhere.

HoU to Make the Best
Cough Remedy at Home
A Family supply at Small Cost,
and Fully Guaranteed.

Make a plain syrup by mixing one
pint of graduated sugar and n pint of
warm water and stir for minutes.
Put 21a ounces of pure Pinex fifty
cents WORTH in pint bottle, and fill it
up with the Sugar Syrup. This gives
you a family supply of the best cough
syrup at saving of S. 1t never spoils.
Take a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
The effectiveness of this simple remedy
is surprising. 1t seems to take hold al
most instantly, and viii usually con-
quer an ordinary cough in "a hours,
It tones up the faded appetite and is
lust laxative enough to be helpful in
q cough, and has a pleasing taste.
Also excellent for bronchial trouble,
bronchial asthma, whooping cough and
spasmodic Group.
This method of making cough remedy
with Pinex and Sugar Syrup Tor
strained honey is now used in more
homes than any other cough syrup.
This explains why it is often initiated,
though never successfully. If you try
it, use only genuine Pinex, which is a
most valuable concentrated compound
of Norway white pine extract, and is
rich in guaiacol and other natural
healing pine elements. Other prepare
tions will not work in this combination.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction,

this preparation. Your druggist has

Threatened To
Kill Ills Wife

Grand Forks, N. D., Sept. 26.-Ole
Amundson of Grace township was ar
rested yesterday afternoon by Deputy
Sheriff Ole Brenna and brought to this
city, where he was placed in the
Grand Forks county JAIL A warrant,
charging assault and battery, was
sworn out against him and at pre-
liminary hearing before Judge Richard
Purcell, his case was continued until
this morning, so that the complaining
witness, his wife and father-in-law,
Andrew Teigen, could be present.
They are expected to arrive in the city
this morning.
Amundson, according to allegations,
recently threatened to kill his wife
and she has been afraid of him for
several weeks, keeping him out of the
house most of the time. The accused
man has lived in this country, but
a few years, coming from Norway five
years ago, and has been married two
years. He rents piece of land from
his father-in-law in Grace township
and has been managing the farm. He
has been acting queerly for some time
and is believed to be insane. 1t is ex-
pected that a warrant charging in
sanity, will be made out Of the com
plainants this morning, but the as
sault and battery charge was made SO
that he could be held until that time
Amundson is about 40 years of age
and does not seem to realize what he
is arrested for and declares that h.
has harmed nobody.

Stole "Dope'' to
Add to Salary
AGED DRUG CLERK OF ST PAUL
DISCOVERED IN THEF1S
OF YEARS.

St. Paul, Sept. 29.-Henry Steven,
56 years old and oerk in the
wholesale drug house of Noyes Bros
& Cutler for half Of his life, con-
fessed today, according to detectives,
that for seven years he has been
stealing cocaine and opium from MS
employers, and conducting an Illicit
trade with drug slaves as his patrons
using the proceeds of the tariff to
support his family, whose members
though his increased income was the
result of salary raises.
Stevens arrest today was made by
detectives from the central police
station, after he had fallen in to a
trap laid by the detective agency.
In his alleged confession, he de-
clared that his inability to secure a
salary greater than $50 a month was
the cause of his crimes. Trembling
with nervousness, he related the de-
tails of his struggle against poverty
and his futile efforts to give bis fam
lily the little luxuries that they
craved.
Finally, he said, when a grocer
attached his wages for the payment
Of bill for provisions, he sue
cumhed t. the temptation to steal.
That was several years ago, and his
salary, he said, was $12 week.
ThouGh the police believe his loot
has aggregated thousands cf dollars
iL value, Steven declared emp'aiisal'
ly that he has realized no more than
$500 from the drug traffic in several
years.
